<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 *".

asm/unaligned.h is always an include of asm-generic/unaligned.h;
might as well move that thing to linux/unaligned.h and include
that - there's nothing arch-specific in that header.

<title>Input: elantech - fix touchpad state on resume for Lenovo N24</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a69ce592cbe0417664bc5a075205aa75c2ec1273</id>
<content type='text'>
The Lenovo N24 on resume becomes stuck in a state where it
sends incorrect packets, causing elantech_packet_check_v4 to fail.
The only way for the device to resume sending the correct packets is for
it to be disabled and then re-enabled.

This change adds a dmi check to trigger this behavior on resume.

<title>Input: psmouse - fix fast_reconnect function for PS/2 mode</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e2cb5cc822b6c9ee72c56ce1d81671b22c05406a</id>
<content type='text'>
When the SMBus connection is attempted psmouse_smbus_init() sets
the fast_reconnect pointer to psmouse_smbus_reconnecti(). If SMBus
initialization fails, elantech_setup_ps2() and synaptics_init_ps2() will
fallback to PS/2 mode, replacing the psmouse private data. This can cause
issues on resume, since psmouse_smbus_reconnect() expects to find an
instance of struct psmouse_smbus_dev in psmouse-&gt;private.

The issue was uncovered when in 92e24e0e57f7 ("Input: psmouse - add
delay when deactivating for SMBus mode") psmouse_smbus_reconnect()
started attempting to use more of the data structure. The commit was
since reverted, not because it was at fault, but because there was found
a better way of doing what it was attempting to do.

Fix the problem by resetting the fast_reconnect pointer in psmouse
structure in elantech_setup_ps2() and synaptics_init_ps2() when the PS/2
mode is used.

<content type='text'>
The array param[] in elantech_change_report_id() must be at least 3
bytes, because elantech_read_reg_params() is calling ps2_command() with
PSMOUSE_CMD_GETINFO, that is going to access 3 bytes from param[], but
it's defined in the stack as an array of 2 bytes, therefore we have a
potential stack out-of-bounds access here, also confirmed by KASAN:

displacement being too large (outside of [-127, 127] range). Let's drop such
packets so that we do not generate jumps.

Creating a software node and supplying that for the device
instead of only the device properties in it. A software
node was always created in any case to hold the additional
device properties, so this change does not have any real
effect.

This change makes it possible to remove support for the
problematic "dangling" device properties from i2c subsystem,
i.e. the "properties" member from struct i2c_board_info. The
problems caused by them are not related to this driver.

There are some version of Elan trackpads that send incorrect data when
in SMbus mode, unless they are switched to use 0x5f reports instead of
standard 0x5e. This patch implements querying device to retrieve chips
identifying data, and switching it, when needed to the alternative
report.
