Pull USB fixes from Greg KH:
 "Here are some small USB driver fixes and quirk updates for 5.0-rc2.

  The majority here are some quirks for some storage devices to get them
  to work properly. There's also a fix here to resolve the reported
  issues with some audio devices that say they are UAC3 compliant, but
  really are not.

  And a fix up for the MAINTAINERS file to remove a dead url.

  All have been in linux-next with no reported issues"

We already need to zero out memory for dma_alloc_coherent(), as such
using dma_zalloc_coherent() is superflous. Phase it out.

This change was generated with the following Coccinelle SmPL patch:

<title>USB: Add USB_QUIRK_DELAY_CTRL_MSG quirk for Corsair K70 RGB</title>

To match the Corsair Strafe RGB, the Corsair K70 RGB also requires
USB_QUIRK_DELAY_CTRL_MSG to completely resolve boot connection issues
discussed here: https://github.com/ckb-next/ckb-next/issues/42.
Otherwise roughly 1 in 10 boots the keyboard will fail to be detected.

Patch that applied delay control quirk for Corsair Strafe RGB:
cb88a0588717 ("usb: quirks: add control message delay for 1b1c:1b20")

In most of the UAC1 and UAC2 audio devices, the first
configuration is most often the best configuration.
However, with recent patch to support UAC3 configuration,
second configuration was unintentionally chosen for
some of the UAC1/2 devices that had more than one
configuration. This was because of the existing check
after the audio config check which selected any config
which had a non-vendor class. This patch fixes this issue.

The SMI SM3350 USB-UFS bridge controller cannot handle long sense request
correctly and will make the chip refuse to do read/write when requested
long sense.

Add a bad sense quirk for it.

Currently the code will set US_FL_SANE_SENSE flag unconditionally if
device claims SPC3+, however we should allow US_FL_BAD_SENSE flag to
prevent this behavior, because SMI SM3350 UFS-USB bridge controller,
which claims SPC4, will show strange behavior with 96-byte sense
(put the chip into a wrong state that cannot read/write anything).

Check the presence of US_FL_BAD_SENSE when assuming US_FL_SANE_SENSE on
SPC4+ devices.

<title>Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function</title>

<id>96d4f267e40f9509e8a66e2b39e8b95655617693</id>
<content type='text'>
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:

 - Page table code for AMD IOMMU now supports large pages where smaller
   page-sizes were mapped before. VFIO had to work around that in the
   past and I included a patch to remove it (acked by Alex Williamson)

 - Patches to unmodularize a couple of IOMMU drivers that would never
   work as modules anyway.

 - Work to unify the the iommu-related pointers in 'struct device' into
   one pointer. This work is not finished yet, but will probably be in
   the next cycle.

 - NUMA aware allocation in iommu-dma code

 - Support for r8a774a1 and r8a774c0 in the Renesas IOMMU driver

 - Scalable mode support for the Intel VT-d driver

 - PM runtime improvements for the ARM-SMMU driver

 - Support for the QCOM-SMMUv2 IOMMU hardware from Qualcom

 - Various smaller fixes and improvements
