<content type='text'>
A comment in drivers/net/ethernet/sis/sis900.h incorrectly refers to
CONFIG_VLAN_802_1Q instead of CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q. Correct it.

Discovered while searching for CONFIG_* symbols referenced in code but
not defined in any Kconfig file.

<title>net: Consistently define pci_device_ids using named initializers</title>

... and PCI device helpers.

The various struct pci_device_id arrays were initialized mostly by one
the PCI_DEVICE macros and then list expressions. The latter isn't easily
readable if you're not into PCI. Using named initializers is more
explicit and thus easier to parse.

Also use PCI_DEVICE* helper macros to assign .vendor, .device,
.subvendor and .subdevice where appropriate and skip explicit
assignments of 0 (which the compiler takes care of).

The secret plan is to make struct pci_device_id::driver_data an
anonymous union (similar to
https://lore.kernel.org/all/cover.1776579304.git.u.kleine-koenig@baylibre.com/)
and that requires named initializers. But it's also a nice cleanup on
its own.

This change doesn't introduce changes to the compiled pci_device_id
arrays. Tested on x86 and arm64.

<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>

<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 module version is useless, and the only thing these drivers' init
routines did besides pci_register_driver was to print the driver name
and/or version.

<content type='text'>
The currently used function pci_request_regions() is one of the
problematic "hybrid devres" PCI functions, which are sometimes managed
through devres, and sometimes not (depending on whether
pci_enable_device() or pcim_enable_device() has been called before).

The PCI subsystem wants to remove this behavior and, therefore, needs to
port all users to functions that don't have this problem.

Replace pci_request_regions() with pcim_request_all_regions().

over and remove the historical wrapper inlines.

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will disable inb()/outb() and friends at
compile time. We thus need to add HAS_IOPORT as dependency for
those drivers requiring them. For the DEFXX driver the use of I/O
ports is optional and we only need to fence specific code paths. It also
turns out that with HAS_IOPORT handled explicitly HAMRADIO does not need
the !S390 dependency and successfully builds the bpqether driver.
