aiptek_irq() derives macro key indices directly from tablet reports and
then uses them to index macroKeyEvents[]. Report types 4 and 5 also save
the derived value in aiptek-&gt;lastMacro and later use that state to
release the previous key.

Validate the raw macro index once before it enters that state machine, so
lastMacro only ever stores an in-range macro key. Keep direct bounds
checks for report type 6, which reads the macro number from the packet
body and uses it immediately.

The driver uses its own definitions for HID requests.
This leads to duplication and obfuscation. Use HID's
definitions.

<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.

<content type='text'>
It is preferred to use sizeof(*pointer) instead of sizeof(type)
due to the type of the variable can change and one needs not
change the former (unlike the latter). This patch has no effect
on runtime behavior.

The driver core now has the ability to handle the creation and removal
of device-specific sysfs files, let's use it instead of registering and
unregistering attributes by hand.

Variable ret is being assigned a value that is never read, it is
being re-assigned again in either path of the if statement. The
assignment is redundant and can be removed.

Cleans up clang scan build warning:
Although the value stored to 'ret' is used in the enclosing expression,
the value is never actually read from 'ret' [deadcode.DeadStores]

Syzbot reported warning in usb_submit_urb() which is caused by wrong
endpoint type. There was a check for the number of endpoints, but not
for the type of endpoint.

Fix it by replacing old desc.bNumEndpoints check with
usb_find_common_endpoints() helper for finding endpoints

Fail log:
