mainlining shenanigans

Bartosz Golaszewski says: ==================== net: improve devres helpers So it seems like there's no support for relaxing certain networking devres helpers to not require previously allocated structures to also be managed. However the way mdio devres variants are implemented is still wrong and I modified my series to address it while keeping the functions strict. First two patches modify the ixgbe driver to get rid of the last user of devm_mdiobus_free(). Patches 3, 4, 5 and 6 are mostly cosmetic. Patch 7 fixes the way devm_mdiobus_register() is implemented. Patches 8 & 9 provide a managed variant of of_mdiobus_register() and last patch uses it in mtk-star-emac driver. v1 -> v2: - drop the patch relaxing devm_register_netdev() - require struct mii_bus to be managed in devm_mdiobus_register() and devm_of_mdiobus_register() but don't store that information in the structure itself: use devres_find() instead ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
