856031614e staging: comedi: ni_tio: remove unnecessary ni_gpct_variant BUG() cases
The enum ni_gpct_variant is used to handle hardware variations in the
gpct timers handled by this driver. This enum is defined as:

enum ni_gpct_variant {
	ni_gpct_variant_e_series,
	ni_gpct_variant_m_series,
	ni_gpct_variant_660x
};

For all the switch statements where all three enum values are handled,
remove the unreachable BUG(). Move the default case so it is handled
the same as ni_gpct_variant_e_series.

c8ed99d4f6 serial: 8250_dw: Add support for deferred probing
The 8250_dw driver fails to probe if the specified clock isn't
registered at probe time. Even if a clock frequency is given,
the required clock might be gated because it wasn't properly
enabled.

This happened to me when the device is registered through DT,
and the clock was part of an MFD, the PRCM found on A31 and A23
SoCs. Unlike core clocks that are registered with OF_CLK_DECLARE,
which happen almost immediately after the kernel starts, the
clocks are registered as sub-devices of the PRCM MFD platform
device. Even though devices are registered in the order they are
found in the DT, the drivers are registered in a different,
arbitrary order. It is possible that the 8250_dw driver is
registered, and thus associated with the device and probed, before
the clock driver is registered and probed.

8250_dw then reports unable to get the clock, and fails. Without
a working console, the kernel panics.

This patch adds support for deferred probe handling for the clock
and reset controller. It also fixes the cleanup path if
serial8250_register_8250_port fails.

1d6ba284df serial: st-asc: Fix overflow in baudrate calculation
In the current calculation, if the required baud rate is above 262143,
we get an overflow.

This patch uses a 64bits variable to do the maths.
Also, we remove the '+1' to avoid a divide by zero if the input clock
rate is something unexpected.
Indeed, if the input clock rate is zero, it is preferable to be notified,
since the UART won't work anyway.

5b4e79ae45 serial: st-asc: Don't call BUG in asc_console_setup()
In order to prevent an asc instance to be used as early console, BUG_ON is
used on either mapbase or membase being NULL.

Problem is that this condition is also true when we set console to be a ttyASx
different to the first asc instance being probed.

Instead of calling BUG_ON, it now returns -ENXIO when either mapbase or
membase is NULL.

eeec626366 Revert "hwrng: virtio - ensure reads happen after successful probe"
This reverts commit e052dbf554.

Now that we use the virtio ->scan() function to register with the hwrng
core, we will not get read requests till probe is successfully finished.

So revert the workaround we had in place to refuse read requests while
we were not yet setup completely.

5c06273401 virtio: rng: delay hwrng_register() till driver is ready
Instead of calling hwrng_register() in the probe routing, call it in the
scan routine.  This ensures that when hwrng_register() is successful,
and it requests a few random bytes to seed the kernel's pool at init,
we're ready to service that request.

This will also enable us to remove the workaround added previously to
check whether probe was completed, and only then ask for data from the
host.  The revert follows in the next commit.

There's a slight behaviour change here on unsuccessful hwrng_register().
Previously, when hwrng_register() failed, the probe() routine would
fail, and the vqs would be torn down, and driver would be marked not
initialized.  Now, the vqs will remain initialized, driver would be
marked initialized as well, but won't be available in the list of RNGs
available to hwrng core.  To fix the failures, the procedure remains the
same, i.e. unload and re-load the module, and hope things succeed the
next time around.

in ELF symbol tables.  However, unfortunately ARM binutils leaks the
.LANCHOR symbols into the symbol table, which leads kallsyms to report
these symbols rather than the real name.  It is not very useful when
%pf reports symbols against these leaked .LANCHOR symbols.

Arrange for kallsyms to ignore these symbols using the same mechanism
that is used for the ARM mapping symbols.

a0d8f80374 scripts: modpost: Remove numeric suffix pattern matching
For several years, the pattern "foo$" has effectively been treated as
equivalent to "foo" due to a bug in the (misnamed) helper
number_prefix(). This hasn't been observed to cause any problems, so
remove the broken $ functionality and change all foo$ patterns to foo.

fcd38ed0ff scripts: modpost: fix compilation warning
The scripts/mod/modpost.c triggers the following warning:

scripts/mod/modpost.c: In function ‘remove_dot’:
scripts/mod/modpost.c:1710:10: warning: ignoring return value of ‘strtoul’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result [-Wunused-result]

The remove_dot function that calls strtoul does not care about the
numeric value of the string that is parsed but only looks for the
end of the numeric sequence.  As such, it's equivalent to just skip
over all digits.

37549e94c7 sysfs: disallow world-writable files.
This check was introduced in 2006 by Alexey Dobriyan (9774a1f54f)
for module parameters; we removed it when we unified the check into
VERIFY_OCTAL_PERMISSIONS() as sysfs didn't have the same requirement.
Now all those users are fixed, reintroduce it.

76681c8faa module: return bool from within_module*()
The within_module*() functions return only true or false. Let's use bool as
the return type.

Note that it should not change kABI because these are inline functions.

9b20a352d7 module: add within_module() function
It is just a small optimization that allows to replace few
occurrences of within_module_init() || within_module_core()
with a single call.
