<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 *".

<title>clocksource/drivers/ep93xx: Fix error handling during probe</title>

<id>urn:sha1:c0c4579d79d0df841e825c68df450909a0032faf</id>
<content type='text'>
When the interrupt property fails to be parsed, ep93xx_timer_of_init()
return code ends up uninitialized:

drivers/clocksource/timer-ep93xx.c:160:6: error: variable 'ret' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is true [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
        if (irq &lt; 0) {
            ^~~~~~~
drivers/clocksource/timer-ep93xx.c:188:9: note: uninitialized use occurs here
        return ret;
               ^~~
drivers/clocksource/timer-ep93xx.c:160:2: note: remove the 'if' if its condition is always false
        if (irq &lt; 0) {
        ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Simplify this portion to use the normal construct of just checking
whether a valid interrupt was returned. Note that irq_of_parse_and_map()
never returns a negative value and no other callers check for that either.

Rewrite EP93xx timer driver located in arch/arm/mach-ep93xx/timer-ep93xx.c
trying to do everything the device tree way:

- Make every IO-access relative to a base address and dynamic
  so we can do a dynamic ioremap and get going.
- Find register range and interrupt from the device tree.
