David S. Miller 2739bd76fc Merge branch 'ipa-kill-validation'
Alex Elder says:

====================
net: ipa: kill IPA_VALIDATION

A few months ago I proposed cleaning up some code that validates
certain things conditionally, arguing that doing so once is enough,
thus doing so always should not be necessary.
  https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20210320141729.1956732-1-elder@linaro.org/
Leon Romanovsky felt strongly that this was a mistake, and in the
end I agreed to change my plans.

This series finally completes what I said I would do about this,
ultimately eliminating the IPA_VALIDATION symbol and conditional
code entirely.

The first patch both extends and simplifies some validation done for
IPA immediate commands, and performs those tests unconditionally.

The second patch fixes a bug that wasn't normally exposed because of
the conditional compilation (a reason Leon was right about this).
It makes filter and routing table validation occur unconditionally.

The third eliminates the remaining conditionally-defined code and
removes the line in the Makefile used to enable validation.

And the fourth removes all comments containing ipa_assert()
statements, replacing most of them with WARN_ON() calls.

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.
