timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree
over and remove the historical wrapper inlines.

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

<title>serial: sh-sci: Save and restore more registers</title>

On (H)SCIF with a Baud Rate Generator for External Clock (BRG), there
are multiple ways to configure the requested serial speed.  If firmware
uses a different method than Linux, and if any debug info is printed
after the Bit Rate Register (SCBRR) is restored, but before termios is
reconfigured (which configures the alternative method), the system may
lock-up during resume.

Fix this by saving and restoring the contents of the BRG Frequency
Division (SCDL) and Clock Select (SCCKS) registers as well.

Also save and restore the HSCIF's Sampling Rate Register (HSSRR), which
configures the sampling point, and the SCIFA/SCIFB's Serial Port Control
and Data Registers (SCPCR/SCPDR), which configure the optional control
flow signals.

After this, all registers that are not saved/restored are either:
  - read-only,
  - write-only,
  - status registers containing flags with clear-after-set semantics,
  - FIFO Data Count Trigger registers, which do not matter much for
    the serial console.

hrtimer_setup() takes the callback function pointer as argument and
initializes the timer completely.

Replace hrtimer_init() and the open coded initialization of
hrtimer::function with the new setup mechanism.

Patch was created by using Coccinelle.

serial_mctrl_gpio lib to enable/disable the corresponding IRQs
accordingly.  The warning emitted by CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP is due to
disable_irq (called in mctrl_gpio_disable_ms) being possibly called in
some atomic context (some tty drivers perform modem lines configuration
in regions protected by port lock).

Split mctrl_gpio_disable_ms into two differents APIs, a non-blocking one
and a blocking one. Replace mctrl_gpio_disable_ms calls with the
relevant version depending on whether the call is protected by some port
lock.

The Renesas RZ/G3S supports a power saving mode where power to most of the
SoC components is turned off. When returning from this power saving mode,
SoC components need to be re-configured.

The SCIFs on the Renesas RZ/G3S need to be re-configured as well when
returning from this power saving mode. The sh-sci code already configures
the SCIF clocks, power domain and registers by calling uart_resume_port()
in sci_resume(). On suspend path the SCIF UART ports are suspended
accordingly (by calling uart_suspend_port() in sci_suspend()). The only
missing setting is the reset signal. For this assert/de-assert the reset
signal on driver suspend/resume.

In case the no_console_suspend is specified by the user, the registers need
to be saved on suspend path and restore on resume path. To do this the
sci_console_save()/sci_console_restore() functions were added. There is no
need to cache/restore the status or FIFO registers. Only the control
registers. The registers that will be saved/restored on suspend/resume are
specified by the struct sci_suspend_regs data structure.

<title>serial: sh-sci: Increment the runtime usage counter for the earlycon device</title>

<id>651dee03696e1dfde6d9a7e8664bbdcd9a10ea7f</id>
<content type='text'>
In the sh-sci driver, serial ports are mapped to the sci_ports[] array,
with earlycon mapped at index zero.

The uart_add_one_port() function eventually calls __device_attach(),
which, in turn, calls pm_request_idle(). The identified code path is as
follows:

uart_add_one_port() -&gt;
  serial_ctrl_register_port() -&gt;
    serial_core_register_port() -&gt;
      serial_core_port_device_add() -&gt;
        serial_base_port_add() -&gt;
          device_add() -&gt;
            bus_probe_device() -&gt;
              device_initial_probe() -&gt;
                __device_attach() -&gt;
                  // ...
                  if (dev-&gt;p-&gt;dead) {
                    // ...
                  } else if (dev-&gt;driver) {
                    // ...
                  } else {
                    // ...
                    pm_request_idle(dev);
                    // ...
                  }

The earlycon device clocks are enabled by the bootloader. However, the
pm_request_idle() call in __device_attach() disables the SCI port clocks
while earlycon is still active.

The earlycon write function, serial_console_write(), calls
sci_poll_put_char() via serial_console_putchar(). If the SCI port clocks
are disabled, writing to earlycon may sometimes cause the SR.TDFE bit to
remain unset indefinitely, causing the while loop in sci_poll_put_char()
to never exit. On single-core SoCs, this can result in the system being
blocked during boot when this issue occurs.

To resolve this, increment the runtime PM usage counter for the earlycon
SCI device before registering the UART port.

                    // ...
                    pm_request_idle(dev);
                    // ...
                  }

The earlycon device clocks are enabled by the bootloader. However, the
pm_request_idle() call in __device_attach() disables the SCI port clocks
while earlycon is still active.

The earlycon write function, serial_console_write(), calls
sci_poll_put_char() via serial_console_putchar(). If the SCI port clocks
are disabled, writing to earlycon may sometimes cause the SR.TDFE bit to
remain unset indefinitely, causing the while loop in sci_poll_put_char()
to never exit. On single-core SoCs, this can result in the system being
blocked during boot when this issue occurs.

To resolve this, increment the runtime PM usage counter for the earlycon
SCI device before registering the UART port.

<title>serial: sh-sci: Clean sci_ports[0] after at earlycon exit</title>

The early_console_setup() function initializes sci_ports[0].port with an
object of type struct uart_port obtained from the struct earlycon_device
passed as an argument to early_console_setup().

Later, during serial port probing, the serial port used as earlycon
(e.g., port A) might be remapped to a different position in the sci_ports[]
array, and a different serial port (e.g., port B) might be assigned to slot
0. For example:

sci_ports[0] = port B
sci_ports[X] = port A

In this scenario, the new port mapped at index zero (port B) retains the
data associated with the earlycon configuration. Consequently, after the
Linux boot process, any access to the serial port now mapped to
sci_ports[0] (port B) will block the original earlycon port (port A).

To address this, introduce an early_console_exit() function to clean up
sci_ports[0] when earlycon is exited.

To prevent the cleanup of sci_ports[0] while the serial device is still
being used by earlycon, introduce the struct sci_port::probing flag and
account for it in early_console_exit().

In the sh-sci driver, sci_ports[0] is used by earlycon. If the earlycon is
still active when sci_probe() is called and the new serial port is supposed
to map to sci_ports[0], return -EBUSY to prevent breaking the earlycon.

This situation should occurs in debug scenarios, and users should be
aware of the potential conflict.

Relocate the runtime PM enable operation to sci_probe_single(). This change
prepares the codebase for upcoming fixes.

While at it, replace the existing logic with a direct call to
devm_pm_runtime_enable() and remove sci_cleanup_single(). The
devm_pm_runtime_enable() function automatically handles disabling runtime
PM during driver removal.

<title>serial: sh-sci: Drop __initdata macro for port_cfg</title>

The port_cfg object is used by serial_console_write(), which serves as
the write function for the earlycon device. Marking port_cfg as __initdata
causes it to be freed after kernel initialization, resulting in earlycon
becoming unavailable thereafter. Remove the __initdata macro from port_cfg
to resolve this issue.
