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>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<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 *".

The code in flexcop.c has several instances where spaces are missing
after commas in function call arguments. This violates the Linux
kernel coding style guidelines.

This patch cleans up these minor style issues by adding the required
spaces. This is a purely stylistic change with no functional impact
and improves overall code readability and consistency.

Coverity complains about werid stuff at the debug logic:

	CID 113542 (#1 of 1): Out-of-bounds access (ARRAY_VS_SINGLETON)10.
	callee_ptr_arith: Passing buf to function flexcop_i2c_write4
	which uses it as an array. This might corrupt or misinterpret
	adjacent memory locations.

Instead of directly addressing the issue there, let's rework at
the logic there.

On newer kernels, KERN_CONT does nothing, as the previous message
won't wait for a continuation. Also, both flexcop_i2c_read4() and
flexcop_i2c_write4(), called by it, will print stuff if (debug &amp;4).

So, the way it is is too buggy.

There are two kinds of debug stuff there: deb_i2c() and a code hidden
under #ifdef DUMP_I2C_MESSAGES, with can't be selected without touching
the source code.

Also, if both debug &amp; 0x4 and DUMP_I2C_MESSAGES, flexcop_i2c_request()
will emit two debug messages per call with different data,
with sounds messy.

Simplify it by getting rid of DUMP_I2C_MESSAGES and adding a new
flag to debug (0x40), and making the debug logic there more
consistent.

Drop the FSF's postal address from the source code files that typically
contain mostly the license text. Of the 628 removed instances, 578 are
outdated.

The patch has been created with the following command without manual edits:

git grep -l "675 Mass Ave\|59 Temple Place\|51 Franklin St" -- \
	drivers/media/ include/media|while read i; do i=$i perl -e '
open(F,"&lt; $ENV{i}");
$a=join("", &lt;F&gt;);
$a =~ s/[ \t]*\*\n.*You should.*\n.*along with.*\n.*(\n.*USA.*$)?\n//m
	&amp;&amp; $a =~ s/(^.*)Or, (point your browser to) /$1To obtain the license, $2\n$1/m;
close(F);
open(F, "&gt; $ENV{i}");
print F $a;
close(F);'; done

<content type='text'>
Due to the 80-cols restrictions, and latter due to checkpatch
warnings, several strings were broken into multiple lines. This
is not considered a good practice anymore, as it makes harder
to grep for strings at the source code.

As we're right now fixing other drivers due to KERN_CONT, we need
to be able to identify what printk strings don't end with a "\n".
It is a way easier to detect those if we don't break long lines.

So, join those continuation lines.

The patch was generated via the script below, and manually
adjusted if needed.

&lt;/script&gt;
use Text::Tabs;
while (&lt;&gt;) {
	if ($next ne "") {
		$c=$_;
		if ($c =~ /^\s+\"(.*)/) {
			$c2=$1;
			$next =~ s/\"\n$//;
			$n = expand($next);
			$funpos = index($n, '(');
			$pos = index($c2, '",');
			if ($funpos &amp;&amp; $pos &gt; 0) {
				$s1 = substr $c2, 0, $pos + 2;
				$s2 = ' ' x ($funpos + 1) . substr $c2, $pos + 2;
				$s2 =~ s/^\s+//;

				$s2 = ' ' x ($funpos + 1) . $s2 if ($s2 ne "");

				print unexpand("$next$s1\n");
				print unexpand("$s2\n") if ($s2 ne "");
			} else {
				print "$next$c2\n";
			}
			$next="";
			next;
		} else {
			print $next;
		}
		$next="";
	} else {
		if (m/\"$/) {
			if (!m/\\n\"$/) {
				$next=$_;
				next;
			}
		}
	}
	print $_;
}
&lt;/script&gt;

Soon my dibcom.fr/parrot.com-address won't respond anymore.
Thus I'm replacing it. And, while being at it,
let's adapt some other (old) email-addresses as well.

a common bus-independent code. Break it accordingly.
