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.

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441
("fs: remove no_llseek")

To quote that commit,

  At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -

  git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
	sed -i '/\&lt;no_llseek\&gt;/d' $i
  done

  would do it.

Unfortunately, that hadn't been done.  Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form
	.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.

Pull tty / serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the "big" set of tty/serial driver updates for 6.12-rc1.

  Nothing major in here, just nice forward progress in the slow cleanup
  of the serial apis, and lots of other driver updates and fixes.

  Included in here are:

   - serial api updates from Jiri to make things more uniform and sane

   - 8250_platform driver cleanups

   - samsung serial driver fixes and updates

   - qcom-geni serial driver fixes from Johan for the bizarre UART
     engine that that chip seems to have. Hopefully it's in a better
     state now, but hardware designers still seem to come up with more
     ways to make broken UARTS 40+ years after this all should have
     finished.

   - sc16is7xx driver updates

   - omap 8250 driver updates

   - 8250_bcm2835aux driver updates

   - a few new serial driver bindings added

   - other serial minor driver updates

  All of these have been in linux-next for a long time with no reported
  problems"

Pull sched_ext support from Tejun Heo:
 "This implements a new scheduler class called ‘ext_sched_class’, or
  sched_ext, which allows scheduling policies to be implemented as BPF
  programs.

  The goals of this are:

   - Ease of experimentation and exploration: Enabling rapid iteration
     of new scheduling policies.

   - Customization: Building application-specific schedulers which
     implement policies that are not applicable to general-purpose
     schedulers.

   - Rapid scheduler deployments: Non-disruptive swap outs of scheduling
     policies in production environments"

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
 "This is the "last" part of the support for the new nbcon consoles.
  Where "nbcon" stays for "No Big console lock CONsoles" aka not under
  the console_lock.

  New callbacks are added to struct console:

   - write_thread() for flushing nbcon consoles in task context.

   - write_atomic() for flushing nbcon consoles in atomic context,
     including NMI.

   - con-&gt;device_lock() and device_unlock() for taking the driver
     specific lock, for example, port-&gt;lock.

  New printk-specific kthreads are created:

   - per-console kthreads which get responsible for flushing normal
     priority messages on nbcon consoles.

   - thread which gets responsible for flushing normal priority messages
     on all consoles when CONFIG_RT enabled.

  The new callbacks are called under a special per-console lock which
  has already been added back in v6.7. It allows to distinguish three
  severities: normal, emergency, and panic. A context with a higher
  priority could take over the ownership when it is safe even in the
  middle of handling a record. The panic context could do it even when
  it is not safe. But it is allowed only for the final desperate flush
  before entering the infinite loop.

  The new lock helps to flush the messages directly in emergency and
  panic contexts. But it is not enough in all situations:

   - console_lock() is still need for synchronization against boot
     consoles.

   - con-&gt;device_lock() is need for synchronization against other
     operations on the same HW, e.g. serial port speed setting,
     non-printk related read/write.

  The dependency on con-&gt;device_lock() is mutual. Any code taking the
  driver specific lock has to acquire the related nbcon console context
  as well. For example, see the new uart_port_lock() API. It provides
  the necessary synchronization against emergency and panic contexts
  where the messages are flushed only under the new per-console lock.

  Maybe surprisingly, a quite tricky part is the decision how to flush
  the consoles in various situations. It has to take into account:

   - message priority:    normal, emergency, panic

   - scheduling context:  task, atomic, deferred_legacy

   - registered consoles: boot, legacy, nbcon

   - threads are running: early boot, suspend, shutdown, panic

   - caller:              printk(), pr_flush(), printk_flush_in_panic(),
                          console_unlock(), console_start(), ...

  The primary decision is made in printk_get_console_flush_type(). It
  creates a hint what the caller should do:

   - flush nbcon consoles directly or via the kthread

   - call the legacy loop (console_unlock()) directly or via irq_work

  The existing behavior is preserved for the legacy consoles. The only
  exception is that they are not longer flushed directly from printk()
  in panic() before CPUs are stopped. But this blocking happens only
  when at least one nbcon console is registered. The motivation is to
  increase a chance to produce the crash dump. They legacy consoles
  might create a deadlock in compare with nbcon consoles. The nbcon
  console should allow to see the messages even when the crash dump
  fails.

  There are three possible ways how nbcon consoles are flushed:

   - The per-nbcon-console kthread is responsible for flushing messages
     added with the normal priority. This is the default mode.

   - The legacy loop, aka console_unlock(), is used when there is still
     a boot console registered. There is no easy way how to match an
     early console driver with a nbcon console driver. And the
     console_lock() provides the only reliable serialization at the
     moment.

     The legacy loop uses either con-&gt;write_atomic() or
     con-&gt;write_thread() callbacks depending on whether it is allowed to
     schedule. The atomic variant has to be used from printk().

   - In other situations, the messages are flushed directly using
     write_atomic() which can be called in any context, including NMI.
     It is primary needed during early boot or shutdown, in emergency
     situations, and panic.

  The emergency priority is used by a code called within
  nbcon_cpu_emergency_enter()/exit(). At the moment, it is used in four
  situations: WARN(), Oops, lockdep, and RCU stall reports.

  Finally, there is no nbcon console at the moment. It means that the
  changes should _not_ modify the existing behavior. The only exception
  is CONFIG_RT which would force offloading the legacy loop, for normal
  priority context, into the dedicated kthread"

Apple's older A7-A9 SoCs seems to use bit 3 in UTRSTAT as RXTO, which is
enabled by bit 11 in UCON.

Access these bits in addition to the original RXTO and RXTO enable bits,
to allow serial rx to function on A7-A9 SoCs. This change does not
appear to affect the A10 SoC and up.

Apple's earlier SoCs, like A7-A11, requires 32-bit writes for the serial
port. Otherwise, a SError happens when writing to UTXH (+0x20). This only
manifested in earlycon as reg-io-width in the device tree is consulted
for normal serial writes.

Change the iotype of the port to UPIO_MEM32, to allow the serial port to
function on A7-A11 SoCs. This change does not appear to affect Apple M1 and
above.

The write to RP2_GLOBAL_CMD followed by an immediate read of
RP2_GLOBAL_CMD in rp2_reset_asic() is intented to flush out the write,
however by then the device is already in reset and cannot respond to a
memory cycle access.

On platforms such as the Raspberry Pi 4 and others using the
pcie-brcmstb.c driver, any memory access to a device that cannot respond
is met with a fatal system error, rather than being substituted with all
1s as is usually the case on PC platforms.

Swapping the delay and the read ensures that the device has finished
resetting before we attempt to read from it.

<id>urn:sha1:63d14d974d3d82d0feeae8c73b055d330051e1b4</id>
<content type='text'>
The polled UART operations are used by the kernel debugger (KDB, KGDB),
which can interrupt the kernel at any point in time. The current
Qualcomm GENI implementation does not really work when there is on-going
serial output as it inadvertently "hijacks" the current tx command,
which can result in both the initial debugger output being corrupted as
well as the corruption of any on-going serial output (up to 4k
characters) when execution resumes:

0190: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789 0190: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789

Fix this by making sure that the polled output implementation waits for
the tx fifo to drain before cancelling any on-going longer transfers. As
the polled code cannot take any locks, leave the state variables as they
are and instead make sure that the interrupt handler always starts a new
tx command when there is data in the write buffer.

Since the debugger can interrupt the interrupt handler when it is
writing data to the tx fifo, it is currently not possible to fully
prevent losing up to 64 bytes of tty output on resume.
