commit c1492da3939c89372929e062d731f328f7693f1e upstream.

The pinctrl and GPIO core code make exceptions for the -ENOTSUPP error
code.  One such example is gpio_set_config_with_argument_optional(),
which returns success when gpio_set_config_with_argument() returns
-ENOTSUPP, but reports failure for all other error codes.

Returning -EOPNOTSUPP from the pinctrl driver on the unsupported pinctrl
operation may lead to boot failures when pinctrl drivers implements
struct gpio_chip::set_config, the system uses GPIO hogs, and the
struct gpio_chip::set_config implementation returns -EOPNOTSUPP for the
unsupported operations.

Return -ENOTSUPP for the unsupported pinctrl operation.

<title>pinctrl: renesas: rzg2l: Fix SMT register cache handling</title>

<content type='text'>
Store SMT register cache per bank instead of using a single array.

On RZ/V2H(P), RZ/V2N, and RZ/G3E, the SMT register is split across two
32-bit registers: bits 0/8/16/24 control pins 0-3, while pins 4-7 are
controlled by the corresponding bits in the next register.  The previous
implementation cached only a single SMT register, leading to incomplete
save/restore of SMT state.

Convert cache-&gt;smt to a per-bank array and allocate storage for both
halves.  Update suspend/resume handling to save and restore both SMT
registers when present.

<title>pinctrl: renesas: rzg2l: Fix incorrect PUPD register offset for high pins during suspend/resume</title>

<content type='text'>
When saving/restoring pull-up/down register state during suspend/resume,
the second PUPD register access was incorrectly using the same base offset
as the first, effectively reading/writing the same register twice instead
of the adjacent one.

Add the correct + 4 byte offset to the second RZG2L_PCTRL_REG_ACCESS32
call so that pupd[1][port] is properly saved and restored from the next
32-bit register in the PUPD register pair, covering pins 4–7 of ports
with 4 or more pins.

Add pin configuration support for the Renesas RZ/T2H SoC. The RZ/T2H SoC
allows configuring several electrical characteristics through the DRCTLm
(I/O Buffer Function Switching) registers. These registers control bias
configuration, Schmitt trigger input, output slew rate, and drive
strength.

Implement pinconf_ops to allow reading and updating these properties
through the generic pin configuration framework. The implementation
supports bias-disable, bias-pull-up, bias-pull-down,
input-schmitt-enable, slew-rate, and drive-strength-microamp.

The rzt2h_gpio_get_direction() function is called from
gpiod_get_direction(), which ends up being used within the __setup_irq()
call stack when requesting an interrupt.

__setup_irq() holds a raw_spinlock_t with IRQs disabled, which creates
an atomic context. spinlock_t cannot be used within atomic context
when PREEMPT_RT is enabled, since it may become a sleeping lock.

An "[ BUG: Invalid wait context ]" splat is observed when running with
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING enabled, describing exactly the aforementioned call
stack.

__setup_irq() needs to hold a raw_spinlock_t with IRQs disabled to
serialize access against a concurrent hard interrupt.

Switch to raw_spinlock_t to fix this.

<id>e825c79ef914bd55cf7c2476ddcfb2738eb689c3</id>
<content type='text'>
When calling of_parse_phandle_with_fixed_args(), the caller is
responsible for calling of_node_put() to release the device node
reference.

In rzt2h_gpio_register(), the driver fails to call of_node_put() to
release the reference in of_args.np, which causes a memory leak.

Add the missing of_node_put() call to fix the leak.

When calling of_parse_phandle_with_fixed_args(), the caller is
responsible for calling of_node_put() to release the device node
reference.

In rzt2h_gpio_register(), the driver fails to call of_node_put() to
release the reference in of_args.np, which causes a memory leak.

Add the missing of_node_put() call to fix the leak.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

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.
