Linus Torvalds
b6a7828502 modules-6.4-rc1 
The summary of the changes for this pull requests is:
 
  * Song Liu's new struct module_memory replacement
  * Nick Alcock's MODULE_LICENSE() removal for non-modules
  * My cleanups and enhancements to reduce the areas where we vmalloc
    module memory for duplicates, and the respective debug code which
    proves the remaining vmalloc pressure comes from userspace.
 
 Most of the changes have been in linux-next for quite some time except
 the minor fixes I made to check if a module was already loaded
 prior to allocating the final module memory with vmalloc and the
 respective debug code it introduces to help clarify the issue. Although
 the functional change is small it is rather safe as it can only *help*
 reduce vmalloc space for duplicates and is confirmed to fix a bootup
 issue with over 400 CPUs with KASAN enabled. I don't expect stable
 kernels to pick up that fix as the cleanups would have also had to have
 been picked up. Folks on larger CPU systems with modules will want to
 just upgrade if vmalloc space has been an issue on bootup.
 
 Given the size of this request, here's some more elaborate details
 on this pull request.
 
 The functional change change in this pull request is the very first
 patch from Song Liu which replaces the struct module_layout with a new
 struct module memory. The old data structure tried to put together all
 types of supported module memory types in one data structure, the new
 one abstracts the differences in memory types in a module to allow each
 one to provide their own set of details. This paves the way in the
 future so we can deal with them in a cleaner way. If you look at changes
 they also provide a nice cleanup of how we handle these different memory
 areas in a module. This change has been in linux-next since before the
 merge window opened for v6.3 so to provide more than a full kernel cycle
 of testing. It's a good thing as quite a bit of fixes have been found
 for it.
 
 Jason Baron then made dynamic debug a first class citizen module user by
 using module notifier callbacks to allocate / remove module specific
 dynamic debug information.
 
 Nick Alcock has done quite a bit of work cross-tree to remove module
 license tags from things which cannot possibly be module at my request
 so to:
 
   a) help him with his longer term tooling goals which require a
      deterministic evaluation if a piece a symbol code could ever be
      part of a module or not. But quite recently it is has been made
      clear that tooling is not the only one that would benefit.
      Disambiguating symbols also helps efforts such as live patching,
      kprobes and BPF, but for other reasons and R&D on this area
      is active with no clear solution in sight.
 
   b) help us inch closer to the now generally accepted long term goal
      of automating all the MODULE_LICENSE() tags from SPDX license tags
 
 In so far as a) is concerned, although module license tags are a no-op
 for non-modules, tools which would want create a mapping of possible
 modules can only rely on the module license tag after the commit
 8b41fc4454 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin
 or tristate.conf").  Nick has been working on this *for years* and
 AFAICT I was the only one to suggest two alternatives to this approach
 for tooling. The complexity in one of my suggested approaches lies in
 that we'd need a possible-obj-m and a could-be-module which would check
 if the object being built is part of any kconfig build which could ever
 lead to it being part of a module, and if so define a new define
 -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE [0]. A more obvious yet theoretical approach I've
 suggested would be to have a tristate in kconfig imply the same new
 -DPOSSIBLE_MODULE as well but that means getting kconfig symbol names
 mapping to modules always, and I don't think that's the case today. I am
 not aware of Nick or anyone exploring either of these options. Quite
 recently Josh Poimboeuf has pointed out that live patching, kprobes and
 BPF would benefit from resolving some part of the disambiguation as
 well but for other reasons. The function granularity KASLR (fgkaslr)
 patches were mentioned but Joe Lawrence has clarified this effort has
 been dropped with no clear solution in sight [1].
 
 In the meantime removing module license tags from code which could never
 be modules is welcomed for both objectives mentioned above. Some
 developers have also welcomed these changes as it has helped clarify
 when a module was never possible and they forgot to clean this up,
 and so you'll see quite a bit of Nick's patches in other pull
 requests for this merge window. I just picked up the stragglers after
 rc3. LWN has good coverage on the motivation behind this work [2] and
 the typical cross-tree issues he ran into along the way. The only
 concrete blocker issue he ran into was that we should not remove the
 MODULE_LICENSE() tags from files which have no SPDX tags yet, even if
 they can never be modules. Nick ended up giving up on his efforts due
 to having to do this vetting and backlash he ran into from folks who
 really did *not understand* the core of the issue nor were providing
 any alternative / guidance. I've gone through his changes and dropped
 the patches which dropped the module license tags where an SPDX
 license tag was missing, it only consisted of 11 drivers.  To see
 if a pull request deals with a file which lacks SPDX tags you
 can just use:
 
   ./scripts/spdxcheck.py -f \
 	$(git diff --name-only commid-id | xargs echo)
 
 You'll see a core module file in this pull request for the above,
 but that's not related to his changes. WE just need to add the SPDX
 license tag for the kernel/module/kmod.c file in the future but
 it demonstrates the effectiveness of the script.
 
 Most of Nick's changes were spread out through different trees,
 and I just picked up the slack after rc3 for the last kernel was out.
 Those changes have been in linux-next for over two weeks.
 
 The cleanups, debug code I added and final fix I added for modules
 were motivated by David Hildenbrand's report of boot failing on
 a systems with over 400 CPUs when KASAN was enabled due to running
 out of virtual memory space. Although the functional change only
 consists of 3 lines in the patch "module: avoid allocation if module is
 already present and ready", proving that this was the best we can
 do on the modules side took quite a bit of effort and new debug code.
 
 The initial cleanups I did on the modules side of things has been
 in linux-next since around rc3 of the last kernel, the actual final
 fix for and debug code however have only been in linux-next for about a
 week or so but I think it is worth getting that code in for this merge
 window as it does help fix / prove / evaluate the issues reported
 with larger number of CPUs. Userspace is not yet fixed as it is taking
 a bit of time for folks to understand the crux of the issue and find a
 proper resolution. Worst come to worst, I have a kludge-of-concept [3]
 of how to make kernel_read*() calls for modules unique / converge them,
 but I'm currently inclined to just see if userspace can fix this
 instead.

89c4bbd457 fbdev: wmt_ge_rops: Convert to platform remove callback returning void 
The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.

Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

6d398e69b9 video: fbdev: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules 
Since commit 8b41fc4454 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations
are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro
in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing
object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe
might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message.

So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as
modules.

files to a separate core directory. This makes it much clearer which of
the files are actually part of the fbdev framework, and which are part

f7018c2135 video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev 
The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related
files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev
device drivers, fbdev framework files.

Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev
directory, and move all fbdev related files there.

No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some
subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this
patch.
