There are several sound drivers that 'select ZONE_DMA'. This is
backwards as ZONE_DMA is an architecture capability exported to drivers.
Switch the polarity of the dependency to disable these drivers when the
architecture does not support ZONE_DMA. This was discovered in the
context of testing/enabling devm_memremap_pages() which depends on
ZONE_DEVICE. ZONE_DEVICE in turn depends on !ZONE_DMA.

cpus_have_hwcap() is defined as a 'static' function an only used in

the only user is disabled:

This marks the function as __maybe_unused, so the compiler knows that
it can drop the function definition without warning about it.

The HDMI codec parser may create a phantom jack, but the helper
function snd_hda_jack_add_kctl() treats always as a normal jack. This
is superfluous as the jack query is executed at each time the jack
sync is performed.
Since the HDMI codec parser is the only caller of this function, it's
easier to change back this directly calling the original
__snd_hda_jack_add_kctl() with phantom_jack parameter.

While mips can't use the generic compat_siginfo_t directly because
its si_code and si_errno are inverted, we can still make it as
close to the generic version as possible. This makes it easier
to update when new members are added to siginfo_t.
The main changes are adding a missing _sigsys union member and
eliminating the unused _irix_sigchld one.

According to SPC-4, in a Mode Select, the PS bit in Mode Pages is
reserved and must be set to 0 by the driver. In the sd implementation,
function cache_type_store does a Mode Sense, which might set the PS bit
on the read buffer, followed by a Mode Select, which receives the same
buffer, without explicitly clearing the PS bit. So, in cases where
target supports saving the Mode Page to a non-volatile location, we end
up doing a Mode Select with the PS bit set, which could cause an illegal
request error if the target is checking this.
This was observed on a new firmware change, which was subsequently
reverted, but this changes sd.c to be more compliant with SPC-4.
This patch clears the PS bit in the buffer returned by Mode Select,
right before it is used in the Mode Select command.

Replace the use of struct timeval and do_gettimeofday() with
64 bit ktime_get_real_seconds. Prevents 32-bit type overflow
in year 2038 on 32-bit systems.
Driver was using the seconds portion of struct timeval (.tv_secs)
to pass a millseconds timestamp to the firmware. This change maintains
that same behavior using ktime_get_real_seconds.
The structure used to pass the timestamp to firmware is 48 bits and
works fine as long as the top 16 bits are zero and they will be zero
for a long time..ie. thousands of years.
Alternative Change: Add sub second granularity to timestamp
As noted above, the driver only used the seconds portion of timeval,
ignores the microseconds portion, and by multiplying by 1000 effectively
does a <<10 and always writes zero into timestamp[0].
The alternative change would pass all the bits to the firmware:
struct timespec64 ts;
ktime_get_real_ts64(&ts);
timestamp = ts.tv_sec * MSEC_PER_SEC + ts.tv_nsec / NSEC_PER_MSEC;

struct mvumi_hs_page2 stores a "seconds_since1970" field which is of
type u64. It is however, written to, using 'struct timeval' which has
a 32-bit seconds field and whose value will overflow in year 2038.
This patch uses ktime_get_real_seconds() instead since it provides a
64-bit seconds value, which is 2038 safe.

Modified the mpt3sas driver to have a single driver module which
supports both SAS 2.0 & SAS 3.0 HBA devices.
* Added SAS 2.0 HBA device IDs to the mpt3sas_pci_table pci table.
* Created two separate SCSI host templates for SAS2 and SAS3 HBAs so
that, during the driver load time driver can use corresponding host
template(based the pci device ID) while registering a scsi host
adapter instance for that pci device.
* Registered two IOCTL devices, mpt2ctl is for SAS2 HBAs & mpt3ctl for
SAS3 HBAs. Also updated the code to make sure that mpt2ctl device
processes only those ioctl cmds issued for the SAS2 HBAs and mpt3ctl
device processes only those ioctl cmds issued for the SAS3 HBAs.
* Added separate indexing for SAS2 and SAS3 HBAs.
* Replaced compile time check 'MPT2SAS_SCSI' to run time check
'hba_mpi_version_belonged' whereever needed.
* Aliased this merged driver to mpt2sas using MODULE_ALIAS.
* Moved global varaible 'driver_name' to per adapter instance variable.
* Created two raid function template and used corresponding raid
function templates based on the run time check
'hba_mpi_version_belonged'.
* Moved mpt2sas_warpdrive.c file from mpt2sas to mpt3sas folder and
renamed it as mpt3sas_warpdrive.c.
* Also renamed the functions in mpt3sas_warpdrive.c file to follow
current driver function name convention.
* Updated the Makefile to build mpt3sas_warpdrive.o file for these
WarpDrive-specific functions.
* Also in function mpt3sas_setup_direct_io(), used sector_div() API
instead of division operator (which gives compilation errors on 32 bit
machines).
* Removed mpt2sas files, mpt2sas directory & mpt3sas_module.c file.
* Added module parameter 'hbas_to_enumerate' which permits using this
merged driver as a legacy mpt2sas driver or as a legacy mpt3sas
driver.
Here are the available options for this module parameter:
0 - Merged driver which enumerates both SAS 2.0 & SAS 3.0 HBAs
1 - Acts as legacy mpt2sas driver, which enumerates only SAS 2.0 HBAs
2 - Acts as legacy mpt3sas driver, which enumerates only SAS 3.0 HBAs
* Removed mpt2sas entries from SCSI's Kconfig and Makefile files.

A new sysfs shost attribute called "BMR_status" is implemented to report
Backup Rail Monitor status.
This attribute is located in:
/sys/class/scsi_host/host#/BMR_status
When reading this adapter attribute, the driver will output the state of
GPIO[24]. It returns "0" if BMR is healthy and "1" for failure.
If it returns an empty string then it means that there was an error
while obtaining the BMR status. Check dmesg for what error has occurred.
This sysfs shost attribute is mainly for WarpDrive controllers.
