23680f0b7d driver core: make struct class.dev_uevent() take a const *
The dev_uevent() in struct class should not be modifying the device that
is passed into it, so mark it as a const * and propagate the function
signature changes out into all relevant subsystems that use this
callback.

ee4736e50b gnss: add USB support
Add a generic driver for GNSS receivers with a USB interface with two
bulk endpoints.

The driver currently assumes that the device protocol is NMEA (only) but
this can be generalised later as needed.

a7f7f6248d treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'
Since commit 84af7a6194 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

9b5816b56a gnss: replace zero-length array with flexible-array
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array
member[1][2], introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in
case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will
help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

f678d6da74 Char/Misc patches for 5.2-rc1 - part 2
Here is the "real" big set of char/misc driver patches for 5.2-rc1

   - thunderbolt driver updates
   - habanalabs driver updates
   - nvmem driver updates
   - extcon driver updates
   - intel_th driver updates
   - mei driver updates
   - coresight driver updates
   - soundwire driver cleanups and updates
   - fastrpc driver updates
   - other minor driver updates
   - chardev minor fixups
 
 Feels like this tree is getting to be a dumping ground of "small driver
 subsystems" these days.  Which is fine with me, if it makes things
 easier for those subsystem maintainers.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.

c5bf68fe0c *: convert stream-like files from nonseekable_open -> stream_open
Using scripts/coccinelle/api/stream_open.cocci added in 10dce8af34
("fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write
can run simultaneously without deadlock"), search and convert to
stream_open all in-kernel nonseekable_open users for which read and
write actually do not depend on ppos and where there is no other methods
in file_operations which assume @offset access.

I've verified each generated change manually - that it is correct to convert -
and each other nonseekable_open instance left - that it is either not correct
to convert there, or that it is not converted due to current stream_open.cocci
limitations. The script also does not convert files that should be valid to
convert, but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek
for unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g.
drivers/input/mousedev.c)

Among cases converted 14 were potentially vulnerable to read vs write deadlock
(see details in 10dce8af34):

and the rest were just safe to convert to stream_open because their read and
write do not use ppos at all and corresponding file_operations do not
have methods that assume @offset file access(*):

(*) This second group also contains cases with read/write deadlocks that
stream_open.cocci don't yet detect, but which are still valid to convert to

calls wait_for_completion_interruptible() in its .read, but stream_open.cocci
currently detects only "wait_event*" as blocking.

d4584bbfcf gnss: add driver for mediatek receivers
Add driver for serial-connected Mediatek-based GNSS receivers.

These devices typically boot transmitting vendor specific NMEA output
sequences. The serial port bit rate is read from the device tree
"current-speed".

Note that the driver uses the generic GNSS serial implementation and
therefore essentially only manages power abstracted into three power
states: ACTIVE, STANDBY, and OFF.

For mediatek receivers with a main supply and no enable-gpios, this simply
means that the main supply is disabled in STANDBY and OFF (the optional
backup supply is kept enabled while the driver is bound).

Note that the timepulse-support is left unimplemented.

same ON_OFF pin is used to put the device back into hibernate mode. The
current state can be determined by sampling the WAKEUP output.

Hardware configurations where WAKEUP has been connected to ON_OFF (and
where an initial WAKEUP pulse during boot is sufficient to have the
device boot into active mode) are also supported. In this case, device
power is managed using the main-supply regulator only.

Note that configurations where WAKEUP is left not connected, so that the
device power state can only indirectly be determined using the I/O
interface, is currently not supported. It should be fairly
straight-forward to extend the current implementation with such support
however (and this this is the main reason for not using the generic
serial implementation for this driver).

Note that timepulse-support is left unimplemented.

1ad69f10e3 gnss: add driver for u-blox receivers
Add driver for serial-connected u-blox GNSS receivers.

Note that the driver uses the generic GNSS serial implementation and
therefore essentially only manages power abstracted into three power
states: ACTIVE, STANDBY, and OFF.

For u-blox receivers with a main supply and no enable-gpios, this simply
means that the main supply is disabled in STANDBY and OFF (the optional
backup supply is kept enabled while the driver is bound).

Note that timepulse-support is not yet implemented.

37768b054f gnss: add generic serial driver
Add a generic serial GNSS driver (library) which provides a common
implementation for the gnss interface and power management (runtime and
system suspend). This allows GNSS drivers for specific chip to be
implemented by simply providing a set_power() callback to handle three
states: ACTIVE, STANDBY and OFF.

2b6a440351 gnss: add GNSS receiver subsystem
Add a new subsystem for GNSS (e.g. GPS) receivers.

While GNSS receivers are typically accessed using a UART interface they
often also support other I/O interfaces such as I2C, SPI and USB, while
yet other devices use iomem or even some form of remote-processor
messaging (rpmsg).

The new GNSS subsystem abstracts the underlying interface and provides a
new "gnss" class type, which exposes a character-device interface (e.g.
/dev/gnss0) to user space. This allows GNSS receivers to have a
representation in the Linux device model, something which is important
not least for power management purposes.

Note that the character-device interface provides raw access to whatever
protocol the receiver is (currently) using, such as NMEA 0183, UBX or
SiRF Binary. These protocols are expected to be continued to be handled
by user space for the time being, even if some hybrid solutions are also
conceivable (e.g. to have kernel drivers issue management commands).

This will still allow for better platform integration by allowing GNSS
devices and their resources (e.g. regulators and enable-gpios) to be
described by firmware and managed by kernel drivers rather than
platform-specific scripts and services.

While the current interface is kept minimal, it could be extended using
IOCTLs, sysfs or uevents as needs and proper abstraction levels are
identified and determined (e.g. for device and feature identification).
