firmware: pcdp: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array

2020-06-16T04:08:32+00:00

There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare having a
dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure. Kernel code should
always use “flexible array members”[1] for these cases. The older style of
one-element or zero-length arrays should no longer be used[2].

Merge tag 'kbuild-v5.8-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild

2020-06-13T20:29:16+00:00

Pull more Kbuild updates from Masahiro Yamada:

 - fix build rules in binderfs sample

 - fix build errors when Kbuild recurses to the top Makefile

 - covert '---help---' in Kconfig to 'help'

* tag 'kbuild-v5.8-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/masahiroy/linux-kbuild:
  treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'
  kbuild: fix broken builds because of GZIP,BZIP2,LZOP variables
  samples: binderfs: really compile this sample and fix build issues

treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

2020-06-13T16:57:21+00:00

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

Rebase locking/kcsan to locking/urgent

2020-06-11T18:02:46+00:00

Merge the state of the locking kcsan branch before the read/write_once()
and the atomics modifications got merged.

Squash the fallout of the rebase on top of the read/write once and atomic
fallback work into the merge. The history of the original branch is
preserved in tag locking-kcsan-2020-06-02.

mmap locking API: add MMAP_LOCK_INITIALIZER

2020-06-09T16:39:14+00:00

Define a new initializer for the mmap locking api.  Initially this just
evaluates to __RWSEM_INITIALIZER as the API is defined as wrappers around
rwsem.

mm: reorder includes after introduction of linux/pgtable.h

2020-06-09T16:39:13+00:00

The replacement of  with  made the include
of the latter in the middle of asm includes.  Fix this up with the aid of
the below script and manual adjustments here and there.

	import sys
	import re

	if len(sys.argv) is not 3:
	    print "USAGE: %s  " % (sys.argv[0])
	    sys.exit(1)

	hdr_to_move="#include " % sys.argv[2]
	moved = False
	in_hdrs = False

	with open(sys.argv[1], "r") as f:
	    lines = f.readlines()
	    for _line in lines:
		line = _line.rstrip('
')
		if line == hdr_to_move:
		    continue
		if line.startswith("#include
