This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines.  I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.

Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script.  I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.

So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.

The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Several drivers can benefit from registering per-instance data along
with the syscore operations. To achieve this, move the modifiable fields
out of the syscore_ops structure and into a separate struct syscore that
can be registered with the framework. Add a void * driver data field for
drivers to store contextual data that will be passed to the syscore ops.

Commit cc0cc23babc9 ("powerpc/xive: Untangle xive from child interrupt
controller drivers") changed xive_irq_data to be stashed to chip_data
instead of handler_data. However, multiple places are still attempting to
read xive_irq_data from handler_data and get a NULL pointer deference bug.

Update them to read xive_irq_data from chip_data.

Non-XIVE files which touch xive_irq_data seem quite strange to me,
especially the ocxl driver. I think there ought to be an alternative
platform-independent solution, instead of touching XIVE's data directly.
Therefore, I think this whole thing should be cleaned up. But perhaps I
just misunderstand something. In any case, this cleanup would not be
trivial; for now, just get things working again.

<content type='text'>
xive-specific data is stored in handler_data. This creates a mess, as xive
has to rely on child interrupt controller drivers to clean up this data, as
was done by 9a014f45688 ("powerpc/pseries/pci: Add a msi_free() handler to
clear XIVE data").

Instead, store xive-specific data in chip_data and untangle the child
drivers.

<content type='text'>
Remove legacy-of-mm-gpiochip.h header file. The above mentioned
file provides an OF API that's deprecated. There is no agnostic
alternatives to it and we have to open code the logic which was
hidden behind of_mm_gpiochip_add_data(). Note, most of the GPIO
drivers are using their own labeling schemas and resource retrieval
that only a few may gain of the code deduplication, so whenever
alternative is appear we can move drivers again to use that one.

As a side effect this change fixes a potential memory leak on
an error path, if of_mm_gpiochip_add_data() fails.

irq_domain_create_simple() takes fwnode as the first argument. It can be
extracted from the struct device using dev_fwnode() helper instead of
using of_node with of_fwnode_handle().

So use the dev_fwnode() helper.

<content type='text'>
The conversion of all GPIO drivers to using the .set_rv() and
.set_multiple_rv() callbacks from struct gpio_chip (which - unlike their
predecessors - return an integer and allow the controller drivers to
indicate failures to users) is now complete and the legacy ones have
been removed. Rename the new callbacks back to their original names in
one sweeping change.
