Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
 "Enumeration:

   - Allow TLP Processing Hints to be enabled for RCiEPs (George Abraham
     P)

   - Enable AtomicOps only if we know the Root Port supports them (Gerd
     Bayer)

   - Don't enable AtomicOps for RCiEPs since none of them need Atomic
     Ops and we can't tell whether the Root Complex would support them
     (Gerd Bayer)

   - Leave Precision Time Measurement disabled until a driver enables it
     to avoid PCIe errors (Mika Westerberg)

   - Make pci_set_vga_state() fail if bridge doesn't support VGA
     routing, i.e., PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_VGA is not writable, and return
     errors to vga_get() callers including userspace via
     /dev/vga_arbiter (Simon Richter)

   - Validate max-link-speed from DT in j721e, brcmstb, mediatek-gen3,
     rzg3s drivers (where the actual controller constraints are known),
     and remove validation from the generic OF DT accessor (Hans Zhang)

   - Remove pc110pad driver (no longer useful after 486 CPU support
     removed) and no_pci_devices() (pc110pad was the last user) (Dmitry
     Torokhov, Heiner Kallweit)

  Resource management:

   - Prevent assigning space to unimplemented bridge windows; previously
     we mistakenly assumed prefetchable window existed and assigned
     space and put a BAR there (Ahmed Naseef)

   - Avoid shrinking bridge windows to fit in the initial Root Port
     window; fixes one problem with devices with large BARs connected
     via switches, e.g., Thunderbolt (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Pass full extent of empty space, not just the aligned space, to
     resource_alignf callback so free space before the requested
     alignment can be used (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Place small resources before larger ones for better utilization of
     address space (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Fix alignment calculation for resource size larger than align,
     e.g., bridge windows larger than the 1MB required alignment (Ilpo
     Järvinen)

  Reset:

   - Update slot handling so all ARI functions are treated as being in
     the same slot. They're all reset by Secondary Bus Reset, but
     previously drivers of ARI functions that appeared to be on a
     non-zero device weren't notified and fatal hardware errors could
     result (Keith Busch)

   - Make sysfs reset_subordinate hotplug safe to avoid spurious hotplug
     events (Keith Busch)

   - Hide Secondary Bus Reset ('bus') from sysfs reset_methods if masked
     by CXL because it has no effect (Vidya Sagar)

   - Avoid FLR for AMD NPU device, where it causes the device to hang
     (Lizhi Hou)

  Error handling:

   - Clear only error bits in PCIe Device Status to avoid accidentally
     clearing Emergency Power Reduction Detected (Shuai Xue)

   - Check for AER errors even in devices without drivers (Lukas Wunner)

   - Initialize ratelimit info so DPC and EDR paths log AER error
     information (Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan)

  Power control:

   - Add UPD720201/UPD720202 USB 3.0 xHCI Host Controller .compatible so
     generic pwrctrl driver can control it (Neil Armstrong)

  Hotplug:

   - Set LED_HW_PLUGGABLE for NPEM hotplug-capable ports so LED core
     doesn't complain when setting brightness fails because the endpoint
     is gone (Richard Cheng)

  Peer-to-peer DMA:

   - Allow wildcards in list of host bridges that support peer-to-peer
     DMA between hierarchy domains and add all Google SoCs (Jacob
     Moroni)

  Endpoint framework:

   - Advertise dynamic inbound mapping support in pci-epf-test and
     update host pci_endpoint_test to skip doorbell testing if not
     advertised by endpoint (Koichiro Den)

   - Return 0, not remaining timeout, when MHI eDMA ops complete so
     mhi_ep_ring_add_element() doesn't interpret non-zero as failure
     (Daniel Hodges)

   - Remove vntb and ntb duplicate resource teardown that leads to oops
     when .allow_link() fails or .drop_link() is called (Koichiro Den)

   - Disable vntb delayed work before clearing BAR mappings and
     doorbells to avoid oops caused by doing the work after resources
     have been torn down (Koichiro Den)

   - Add a way to describe reserved subregions within BARs, e.g.,
     platform-owned fixed register windows, and use it for the RK3588
     BAR4 DMA ctrl window (Koichiro Den)

   - Add BAR_DISABLED for BARs that will never be available to an EPF
     driver, and change some BAR_RESERVED annotations to BAR_DISABLED
     (Niklas Cassel)

   - Add NTB .get_dma_dev() callback for cases where DMA API requires a
     different device, e.g., vNTB devices (Koichiro Den)

   - Add reserved region types for MSI-X Table and PBA so Endpoint
     controllers can them as describe hardware-owned regions in a
     BAR_RESERVED BAR (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Make Tegra194/234 BAR0 programmable and remove 1MB size limit
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Expose Tegra BAR2 (MSI-X) and BAR4 (DMA) as 64-bit BAR_RESERVED
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Add Tegra194 and Tegra234 device table entries to pci_endpoint_test
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Skip the BAR subrange selftest if there are not enough inbound
     window resources to run the test (Christian Bruel)

     Zhang)

  Baikal T-1 PCIe controller driver:

   - Remove driver since it never quite became usable (Andy Shevchenko)

   - Implement byte/word config reads with dword (32-bit) reads because
     some Cadence controllers don't support sub-dword accesses (Aksh
     Garg)

  CIX Sky1 PCIe controller driver:

   - Add 'power-domains' to DT binding for SCMI power domain (Gary Yang)

  Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:

   - Add i.MX94 and i.MX943 to fsl,imx6q-pcie-ep DT binding (Richard
     Zhu)

   - Delay instead of polling for L2/L3 Ready after PME_Turn_off when
     suspending i.MX6SX because LTSSM registers are inaccessible
     (Richard Zhu)

   - Separate PERST# assertion (for resetting endpoints) from core reset
     (for resetting the RC itself) to prepare for new DTs with PERST#
     GPIO in per-Root Port nodes (Sherry Sun)

   - Retain Root Port MSI capability on i.MX7D, i.MX8MM, and i.MX8MQ so
     MSI from downstream devices will work (Richard Zhu)

   - Fix i.MX95 reference clock source selection when internal refclk is
     used (Franz Schnyder)

  Freescale Layerscape PCIe controller driver:

   - Allow building as a removable module (Sascha Hauer)

  MediaTek PCIe Gen3 controller driver:

     transition to L2 (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable LTSSM after transition to Detect on surprise link down to
     stop toggling between Polling and Detect (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Don't force the device into the D0 state before L2 when suspending
     or shutting down the controller (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable PERST# IRQ only in Endpoint mode because it's not
     registered in Root Port mode (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Handle 'nvidia,refclk-select' as optional (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable direct speed change in Endpoint mode so link speed change
     is controlled by the host (Vidya Sagar)

   - Set LTR values before link up to avoid bogus LTR messages with 0
     latency (Vidya Sagar)

   - Allow system suspend when the Endpoint link is down (Vidya Sagar)

   - Use DWC IP core version, not Tegra custom values, to avoid DWC core
     version check warnings (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Apply ECRC workaround to devices based on DesignWare 5.00a as well
     as 4.90a (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Disable PM Substate L1.2 in Endpoint mode to work around Tegra234
     erratum (Vidya Sagar)

   - Delay post-PERST# cleanup until core is powered on to avoid CBB
     timeout (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Assert CLKREQ# so switches that forward it to their downstream side
     can bring up those links successfully (Vidya Sagar)

   - Calibrate pipe to UPHY for Endpoint mode to reset stale PLL state
     from any previous bad link state (Vidya Sagar)

   - Remove IRQF_ONESHOT flag from Endpoint interrupt registration so

     line (Vidya Sagar)

   - Enable DMA interrupt to support DMA in both Root Port and Endpoint
     modes (Vidya Sagar)

   - Enable hardware link retraining after link goes down in Endpoint
     mode (Vidya Sagar)

   - Add DT binding and driver support for core clock monitoring (Vidya
     Sagar)

  Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:

   - Advertise 'Hot-Plug Capable' and set 'No Command Completed Support'
     since Qcom Root Ports support hotplug events like DL_Up/Down and
     can accept writes to Slot Control without delays between writes
     (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)

  Renesas R-Car PCIe controller driver:

   - Mark Endpoint BAR0 and BAR2 as Resizable (Koichiro Den)

   - Assert resets in suspend path in reverse order they were deasserted
     during probe (John Madieu)

   - Rework inbound window algorithm to prevent mapping more than
     intended region and enforce alignment on size, to prepare for
     RZ/G3E support (John Madieu)

  Rockchip DesignWare PCIe controller driver:

   - Add tracepoints for PCIe controller LTSSM transitions and link rate
     changes (Shawn Lin)

   - Trace LTSSM events collected by the dw-rockchip debug FIFO (Shawn
     Lin)

     with PME_TO_Ack message (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Set Endpoint MSI-X Table Size in the correct function of a
     multi-function device when configuring MSI-X, not in Function 0
     (Aksh Garg)

<title>crypto: Remove michael_mic from crypto_shash API</title>

<content type='text'>
Remove the "michael_mic" crypto_shash algorithm, since it's no longer
used.  Its only users were wireless drivers, which have now been
converted to use the michael_mic() function instead.

It makes sense that no other users ever appeared: Michael MIC is an
insecure algorithm that is specific to WPA TKIP, which itself was an
interim security solution to replace the broken WEP standard.

<id>urn:sha1:6215d9f4470fbb48245ffdfade821685e2728c65</id>
<content type='text'>
Reduce 22 declarations of empty_zero_page to 3 and 23 declarations of
ZERO_PAGE() to 4.

Every architecture defines empty_zero_page that way or another, but for the
most of them it is always a page aligned page in BSS and most definitions
of ZERO_PAGE do virt_to_page(empty_zero_page).

Move Linus vetted x86 definition of empty_zero_page and ZERO_PAGE() to the
core MM and drop these definitions in architectures that do not implement
colored zero page (MIPS and s390).

ZERO_PAGE() remains a macro because turning it to a wrapper for a static
inline causes severe pain in header dependencies.

For the most part the change is mechanical, with these being noteworthy:

* alpha: aliased empty_zero_page with ZERO_PGE that was also used for boot

* arm64: uses __pa_symbol() in ZERO_PAGE() so that definition of
  ZERO_PAGE() is kept intact.
* m68k/parisc/um: allocated empty_zero_page from memblock,
  although they do not support zero page coloring and having it in BSS
  will work fine.
* sparc64 can have empty_zero_page in BSS rather allocate it, but it
  can't use virt_to_page() for BSS. Keep it's definition of ZERO_PAGE()
  but instead of allocating it, make mem_map_zero point to
  empty_zero_page.

<title>PCI: Align head space better</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9036bd0efcb6162a77f3bf9bacbafba7686c7275</id>
<content type='text'>
When a bridge window contains big and small resource(s), the small
resource(s) may not amount to the half of the size of the big resource
which would allow calculate_head_align() to shrink the head alignment.
This results in always placing the small resource(s) after the big
resource.

In general, it would be good to be able to place the small resource(s)
before the big resource to achieve better utilization of the address space.
In the cases where the large resource can only fit at the end of the
window, it is even required.

However, carrying the information over from pbus_size_mem() and
calculate_head_align() to __pci_assign_resource() and
pcibios_align_resource() is not easy with the current data structures.

A somewhat hacky way to move the non-aligning tail part to the head is
possible within pcibios_align_resource(). The free space between the start
of the free space span and the aligned start address can be compared with
the non-aligning remainder of the size. If the free space is larger than
the remainder, placing the remainder before the start address is possible.
This relocation should generally work, because PCI resources consist only
power-of-2 atoms.

Various arch requirements may still need to override the relocation, so the
relocation is only applied selectively in such cases.

__find_resource_space() calculates the full extent of empty space but only
passes the aligned space to resource_alignf callback. In some situations,
the callback may choose take advantage of the free space before the
requested alignment.

Pass the full extent of the calculated empty space to resource_alignf
callback as an additional parameter.

<content type='text'>
In commit 507fd01d5333 ("drivers: move the early platform device support to
arch/sh") platform_match() was copied over to the sh platform_early
code, accidentally including the driver_override check.

This check does not make sense for platform_early, as sysfs is not even
available in first place at this point in the boot process, hence remove
the check.

<title>kbuild: Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS</title>

Commit 3e86e4d74c04 ("kbuild: keep .modinfo section in
vmlinux.unstripped") added .modinfo to ELF_DETAILS while removing it
from COMMON_DISCARDS, as it was needed in vmlinux.unstripped and
ELF_DETAILS was present in all architecture specific vmlinux linker
scripts. While this shuffle is fine for vmlinux, ELF_DETAILS and
COMMON_DISCARDS may be used by other linker scripts, such as the s390
and x86 compressed boot images, which may not expect to have a .modinfo
section. In certain circumstances, this could result in a bootloader
failing to load the compressed kernel [1].

Commit ddc6cbef3ef1 ("s390/boot/vmlinux.lds.S: Ensure bzImage ends with
SecureBoot trailer") recently addressed this for the s390 bzImage but
the same bug remains for arm, parisc, and x86. The presence of .modinfo
in the x86 bzImage was the root cause of the issue worked around with
commit d50f21091358 ("kbuild: align modinfo section for Secureboot
Authenticode EDK2 compat"). misc.c in arch/x86/boot/compressed includes
lib/decompress_unzstd.c, which in turn includes lib/xxhash.c and its
MODULE_LICENSE / MODULE_DESCRIPTION macros due to the STATIC definition.

Split .modinfo out from ELF_DETAILS into its own macro and handle it in
all vmlinux linker scripts. Discard .modinfo in the places where it was
previously being discarded from being in COMMON_DISCARDS, as it has
never been necessary in those uses.

<title>Convert more 'alloc_obj' cases to default GFP_KERNEL arguments</title>

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.
