Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.3-rc1.

  There's a lot of changes this development cycle, most of the work
  falls into two different categories:

   - fw_devlink fixes and updates. This has gone through numerous review
     cycles and lots of review and testing by lots of different devices.
     Hopefully all should be good now, and Saravana will be keeping a
     watch for any potential regression on odd embedded systems.

   - driver core changes to work to make struct bus_type able to be
     moved into read-only memory (i.e. const) The recent work with Rust
     has pointed out a number of areas in the driver core where we are
     passing around and working with structures that really do not have
     to be dynamic at all, and they should be able to be read-only
     making things safer overall. This is the contuation of that work
     (started last release with kobject changes) in moving struct
     bus_type to be constant. We didn't quite make it for this release,
     but the remaining patches will be finished up for the release after
     this one, but the groundwork has been laid for this effort.

  Other than that we have in here:

   - debugfs memory leak fixes in some subsystems

   - error path cleanups and fixes for some never-able-to-be-hit
     codepaths.

   - cacheinfo rework and fixes

   - Other tiny fixes, full details are in the shortlog

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

[ Geert Uytterhoeven points out that that last sentence isn't true, and
  that there's a pending report that has a fix that is queued up - Linus ]

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Improve the scalability of the CFS bandwidth unthrottling logic with
   large number of CPUs.

 - Fix &amp; rework various cpuidle routines, simplify interaction with the
   generic scheduler code. Add __cpuidle methods as noinstr to objtool's
   noinstr detection and fix boatloads of cpuidle bugs &amp; quirks.

 - Add new ABI: introduce MEMBARRIER_CMD_GET_REGISTRATIONS, to query
   previously issued registrations.

 - Limit scheduler slice duration to the sysctl_sched_latency period, to
   improve scheduling granularity with a large number of SCHED_IDLE
   tasks.

 - Debuggability enhancement on sys_exit(): warn about disabled IRQs,
   but also enable them to prevent a cascade of followup problems and
   repeat warnings.

 - Fix the rescheduling logic in prio_changed_dl().

 - Micro-optimize cpufreq and sched-util methods.

 - Micro-optimize ttwu_runnable()

 - Micro-optimize the idle-scanning in update_numa_stats(),
   select_idle_capacity() and steal_cookie_task().

 - Update the RSEQ code &amp; self-tests

 - Constify various scheduler methods

 - Remove unused methods

 - Refine __init tags

 - Documentation updates

 - Misc other cleanups, fixes

The uevent() callback in struct bus_type should not be modifying the
device that is passed into it, so mark it as a const * and propagate the
function signature changes out into all relevant subsystems that use
this callback.

<title>arch/idle: Change arch_cpu_idle() behavior: always exit with IRQs disabled</title>

Current arch_cpu_idle() is called with IRQs disabled, but will return
with IRQs enabled.

However, the very first thing the generic code does after calling
arch_cpu_idle() is raw_local_irq_disable(). This means that
architectures that can idle with IRQs disabled end up doing a
pointless 'enable-disable' dance.

Therefore, push this IRQ disabling into the idle function, meaning
that those architectures can avoid the pointless IRQ state flipping.

Pull parisc updates from Helge Deller:
 "There is one noteable patch, which allows the parisc kernel to use the
  same MADV_xxx constants as the other architectures going forward. With
  that change only alpha has one entry left (MADV_DONTNEED is 6 vs 4 on
  others) which is different. To prevent an ABI breakage, a wrapper is
  included which translates old MADV values to the new ones, so existing
  userspace isn't affected. Reason for that patch is, that some
  applications wrongly used the standard MADV_xxx values even on some
  non-x86 platforms and as such those programs failed to run correctly
  on parisc (examples are qemu-user, tor browser and boringssl).

  Then the kgdb console and the LED code received some fixes, and some
  0-day warnings are now gone. Finally, the very last compile warning
  which was visible during a kernel build is now fixed too (in the vDSO
  code).

  The majority of the patches are tagged for stable series and in
  summary this patchset is quite small and drops more code than it adds:

Fixes:
   - Fix potential null-ptr-deref in start_task()
   - Fix kgdb console on serial port
   - Add missing FORCE prerequisites in Makefile
   - Drop PMD_SHIFT from calculation in pgtable.h

  Enhancements:
   - Implement a wrapper to align madvise() MADV_* constants with other
     architectures
   - If machine supports running MPE/XL, show the MPE model string

  Cleanups:
   - Drop duplicate kgdb console code
   - Indenting fixes in setup_cmdline()"

Some (mostly 64-bit machines) machines allow to run MPE/iX and report the MPE
model string via firmware call. Enhance the pdc_model_sysmodel() function to
report that model string.
Note that some 32-bit machines like the B160L wrongly report success for the
firmware call, so include a check to prevent showing wrong info.
