<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>fsi: Create bus specific probe and remove functions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69d4ca009005c14068fe358196c38281ec5ee316</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce a bus specific probe and remove function. For now this only
allows to get rid of a cast of the generic device to an fsi device in
the drivers and changes the remove prototype to return void---a non-zero
return value is ignored anyhow.

The objective is to get rid of users of struct device callbacks
.probe(), .remove() and .shutdown() to eventually remove these.

Until all fsi drivers are converted this results in a runtime warning
about the drivers needing an update because there is a bus probe
function and a driver probe function.

<title>fsi: Make fsi_bus_type a private variable to the core</title>

<content type='text'>
There are no users of fsi_bus_type outside of fsi-core.c, so make that
variable static, don't export it and drop the declaration from the
public header file.

As there is a usage of fsi_bus_type in fsi_create_device() the
definition of that variable must happen further up in the file to not
have to add a local declaration.

<title>fsi: Assign driver's bus in fsi_driver_register()</title>

<content type='text'>
Instead of letting each driver assign the bus, do it once in the fsi
driver register function.

Simplify the fsi drivers that are living in drivers/fsi accordingly.

Once all fsi drivers dropped assigning the bus, fsi_bus_type can be made
a static variable.

All other fsi drivers already use this helper to reduce boilerplate.
