2020-05-31mtd: rawnand: Stop using nand_release()Miquel Raynal1-2/+4
This helper is not very useful and very often people get confused: they use nand_release() instead of nand_cleanup(). Now that all drivers have been converted to do not use nand_release() anymore, let's remove this helper.

In preparation for future extensions, rename functions to use sdw_bus_master prefix and add a parent and fwnode argument to sdw_bus_master_add to help with device registration in follow-up patches. No functionality change, just renames and additional arguments. The Intel code is currently unused, the two additional arguments are only needed for compilation.

2020-05-18gpiolib: Add support for GPIO lookup by line nameGeert Uytterhoeven1-5/+10
Currently a GPIO lookup table can only refer to a specific GPIO by a tuple, consisting of a GPIO controller label and a GPIO offset inside the controller. However, a GPIO may also carry a line name, defined by DT or ACPI. If present, the line name is the most use-centric way to refer to a GPIO. Hence add support for looking up GPIOs by line name. Note that there is no guarantee that GPIO line names are globally unique, so this will use the first match found. Implement this by reusing the existing gpiod_lookup infrastructure. Rename gpiod_lookup.chip_label to gpiod_lookup.key, to make it clear that this field can have two meanings, and update the kerneldoc and GPIO_LOOKUP*() macros.

Yaml conversions also continue to trickle in (plenty more to go!) New device support * ad7476 - Add ad7091 support (ID only) * ad9467 - New driver for this 200/250 MSPS adi-axi-adc and SPI attached ADC. * adi-axi-adc - New driver to support ADIs generic AXI ADC IP core, used to provide high speed interfaces to ADCs (JESD204B/C or parallel interfaces). Usually paired with a device using a slow configuration interface (spi etc) Includes DT bindings and some fixes for fpga headers. * bmg160 - Add support for BMI088 (ID only) * max1241 - New driver for this ADC. * st_sensors - Add support for LIS2HH12 accelerometer * sx9310 - New driver supporting sx9310 and sx9311 proximity sensors. Yaml DT binding conversions * rockchip-saradc (including adding some missing parts) * stm32-dac * tsl2563 * vcnl4000 Features * st_lsm6dsx - Add LIS3MDL as a possible sensor hub device. * vcnl4000 - Add new concept of near level (from DT) to provide to userspace which often needs to have some calibrated concept of 'near'. Cleanups, minor fixes etc. * core - Use snprintf for functions where strings are built and there is potential for overflow. - Correct docs to indicate mlock should not be used directly by drivers. - Fix up accidental dropping of a patch to use bitmap_zalloc. - Stop allowing enabling of buffers with no channels enabled. - Drop unused 'stufftoread' from iio_buffer. - Drop scan_el_attrs form iio_buffer as unused. - Reorder sanity checks in __iio_device_register to fail earlier. - Drop all the devm_ runregister / free functions from IIO as they were never used and encourage poor design. * dma-buffer - Tidy up includes. * dma-engine-buffer - Provide dev-managed allocator. - Fix an issue with printing a size_t * cross subsystem (kxsd9, bmg160, mpu3050, bmi160, mpu6050, bmc150) - Replace some unnecessary casts of error ptrs and whilst there. use the %pe printf parameter to print them in a more useful fashion. * cross subsystem - Drop casts in calls to regmap_bulk_read as they make no sense. - Use devm_platform_ioremap_resource to reduce boilerplate. - Fix typos in Analog Devices. * counters/104-quad - Add Syed Nayyar Waris as an additional maintainer. * ad7476 - Generate CONVST signal internally rather than requiring external trigger. Add sysfs read back as can now do so. - use devm_add_action_or_reset to tidy up error and remove handling. * ad7793 - Switch to read_avail from explicit attribute. Mostly done to avoid confusing people with a - sign (without surounding spaces) that was correct but checkpatch didn't like. * adis library - Add missing newlines at end of error messages. * adis16400 - Use DEFINE_DEBUGS_ATTRIBUTE rather than DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTR. * adis16460 - Use DEFINE_DEBUGS_ATTRIBUTE rather than DEFINE_SIMPLE_ATTR. * ad_sigma_delta - Move some channel definitions into individual drivers to avoid having to deal with complex options. * ak8974 - Silence an error on deffered probe. * bmp280 - Harden against IRQ before registration. - Convert to read_avail instead of opencoding the equivalent. - Explicitly mark GPIO as optional. - Cleanup casts. - Remove line breaks from strings. * htts221 - Replace direct access to platform_data with dev_get_platdata(). - Use device properties rather than device tree ones to allow ACPI probing. - Casting cleanups. * intel_mrfld_adc - Don't use unaligned accessor for aligned data. * isl29125 - Reorder buer pre and post hooks to allow for coming core rework. * ltc2983 - Remove comp to bool. * max1363 - Stop using mlock from the iio_dev directly in favour of a local lock with clearly defined scope. * max30100 - Use generic device properties to allow ACPI probe. * mpu6050 - Convert to i2c_new_client_device. - Add debugfs register access. * st_lsm6dsx - Provide means of configuring full scale on slave device if supported. - Drop include of st_sensors header to get one value. Its not otherwise used by this driver. * st-sensors - Replace direct access to platform_data with dev_get_platdata(). - Casting cleanups. - Avoid splitting strings. * st_uvis25 - Casting cleanups. * tsl2563 - Typo fix. * tsl2772 - scnprintf in a non obvious string building usecase. Note also 'fixes' a wrong calculation of remaining space that couldn't actually cause any trouble as there was lots of room. * xilinx-xadc - Fix Lars-Peter spelling his own name wrong :) + additional typos. * tag 'iio-for-5.8a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jic23/iio: (101 commits) iio: magnetometer: ak8974: Silence deferred-probe error Documentation: ABI: document IIO in_proximity_nearlevel file iio: vcnl4000: Export near level property for proximity sensor dt-bindings: iio: light: vcnl4000: Add proximity-near-level dt-bindings: iio: Introduce common properties for iio sensors dt-bindings: iio: vcnl4000: convert bindings to YAML format iio: Fix misspellings of "Analog Devices" iio: light: isl29125: fix iio_triggered_buffer_{predisable,postenable} positions iio: adc: fsl-imx25-gcq: Use devm_platform_ioremap_resource iio: adc: at91-adc: Use devm_platform_ioremap_resource iio: adc: sun4i-gpadc-iio: Use devm_platform_ioremap_resource iio:light:ltr501: Drop unnecessary cast of parameter in regmap_bulk_read iio:magn:mmc35240: Drop unnecessary casts of val parameter in regmap_bulk* iio:imu:mpu6050: Tidy up parameters to regmap_bulk functions. iio:chemical:bme680: Tidy up parameters to regmap_bulk_read iio:chemical:atlas-sensor: Drop unnecessary explicit casts in regmap_bulk_read calls iio:accel:mxc4005: Drop unnecessary explicit casts in regmap_bulk_read calls iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: drop huge include in sensor-hub driver iio: buffer: drop devm_iio_kfifo_free() API call iio: buffer: drop devm_iio_hw_consumer_free() API call ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of GPIO development for the v5.7 kernel cycle. Core and userspace API: - The userspace API KFIFOs have been imoproved with locks that do not block interrupts. This makes us better at getting events to userspace without blocking or disturbing new events arriving in the same time. This was reviewed by the KFIFO maintainer Stefani. This is a generic improvement which paves the road for similar improvements in other subsystems. - We provide a new ioctl() for monitoring changes in the line information, such as when multiple clients are taking lines and giving them back, possibly reconfiguring them in the process: we can now monitor that and not get stuck with stale static information. - An example tool 'gpio-watch' is provided to showcase this functionality. - Timestamps for events are switched to ktime_get_ns() which is monotonic. We previously had a 'realtime' stamp which could move forward and *backward* in time, which probably would just cause silent bugs and weird behaviour. In the long run we see two relevant timestamps: ktime_get_ns() or the timestamp sometimes provided by the GPIO hardware itself, if that exists. - Device Tree overlay support for GPIO hogs. On systems that load overlays, these overlays can now contain hogs, and will then be respected. - Handle pin control interaction with nonexisting pin ranges in the GPIO library core instead of in the individual drivers. New drivers: - New driver for the Mellanox BlueField 2 GPIO controller. Driver improvements: - Introduce the BGPIOF_NO_SET_ON_INPUT flag to the generic MMIO GPIO library and use this flag in the MT7621 driver. - Texas Instruments OMAP CPU power management improvements, such as blocking of idle on pending GPIO interrupts" * tag 'gpio-v5.7-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio: (59 commits) Revert "gpio: eic-sprd: Use devm_platform_ioremap_resource()" pinctrl: Unconditionally assign .request()/.free() gpio: Unconditionally assign .request()/.free() gpio: export of_pinctrl_get to modules pinctrl: Define of_pinctrl_get() dummy for !PINCTRL gpio: Rename variable in core APIs gpio: Avoid using pin ranges with !PINCTRL gpiolib: Remove unused gpio_chip parameter from gpio_set_bias() gpiolib: Pass gpio_desc to gpio_set_config() gpiolib: Introduce gpiod_set_config() tools: gpio: Fix out-of-tree build regression gpio: gpiolib: fix a doc warning gpio: tegra186: Add Tegra194 pin ranges for GG.0 and GG.1 gpio: tegra186: Add support for pin ranges gpio: Support GPIO controllers without pin-ranges ARM: integrator: impd1: Use GPIO_LOOKUP() helper macro gpio: brcmstb: support gpio-line-names property tools: gpio: Fix typo in gpio-utils tools: gpio-hammer: Apply scripts/Lindent and retain good changes gpiolib: gpio_name_to_desc: factor out !name check ...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull EFI updates from Ingo Molnar: "The EFI changes in this cycle are much larger than usual, for two (positive) reasons: - The GRUB project is showing signs of life again, resulting in the introduction of the generic Linux/UEFI boot protocol, instead of x86 specific hacks which are increasingly difficult to maintain. There's hope that all future extensions will now go through that boot protocol. - Preparatory work for RISC-V EFI support. The main changes are: - Boot time GDT handling changes - Simplify handling of EFI properties table on arm64 - Generic EFI stub cleanups, to improve command line handling, file I/O, memory allocation, etc. - Introduce a generic initrd loading method based on calling back into the firmware, instead of relying on the x86 EFI handover protocol or device tree. - Introduce a mixed mode boot method that does not rely on the x86 EFI handover protocol either, and could potentially be adopted by other architectures (if another one ever surfaces where one execution mode is a superset of another) - Clean up the contents of 'struct efi', and move out everything that doesn't need to be stored there. - Incorporate support for UEFI spec v2.8A changes that permit firmware implementations to return EFI_UNSUPPORTED from UEFI runtime services at OS runtime, and expose a mask of which ones are supported or unsupported via a configuration table. - Partial fix for the lack of by-VA cache maintenance in the decompressor on 32-bit ARM. - Changes to load device firmware from EFI boot service memory regions - Various documentation updates and minor code cleanups and fixes" * 'efi-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (114 commits) efi/libstub/arm: Fix spurious message that an initrd was loaded efi/libstub/arm64: Avoid image_base value from efi_loaded_image partitions/efi: Fix partition name parsing in GUID partition entry efi/x86: Fix cast of image argument efi/libstub/x86: Use ULONG_MAX as upper bound for all allocations efi: Fix a mistype in comments mentioning efivar_entry_iter_begin() efi/libstub: Avoid linking libstub/lib-ksyms.o into vmlinux efi/x86: Preserve %ebx correctly in efi_set_virtual_address_map() efi/x86: Ignore the memory attributes table on i386 efi/x86: Don't relocate the kernel unless necessary efi/x86: Remove extra headroom for setup block efi/x86: Add kernel preferred address to PE header efi/x86: Decompress at start of PE image load address x86/boot/compressed/32: Save the output address instead of recalculating it efi/libstub/x86: Deal with exit() boot service returning x86/boot: Use unsigned comparison for addresses efi/x86: Avoid using code32_start efi/x86: Make efi32_pe_entry() more readable efi/x86: Respect 32-bit ABI in efi32_pe_entry() efi/x86: Annotate the LOADED_IMAGE_PROTOCOL_GUID with SYM_DATA ...
