d08410d8c9 TTY/Serial driver updates for 5.13-rc1
Here is the big set of tty and serial driver updates for 5.13-rc1.
 
 Actually busy this release, with a number of cleanups happening:
 	- much needed core tty cleanups by Jiri Slaby
 	- removal of unused and orphaned old-style serial drivers.  If
 	  anyone shows up with this hardware, it is trivial to restore
 	  these but we really do not think they are in use anymore.
 	- fixes and cleanups from Johan Hovold on a number of termios
 	  setting corner cases that loads of drivers got wrong as well
 	  as removing unneeded code due to tty core changes from long
 	  ago that were never propagated out to the drivers
 	- loads of platform-specific serial port driver updates and
 	  fixes
 	- coding style cleanups and other small fixes and updates all
 	  over the tty/serial tree.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while now with no reported
 issues.

981b22b877 tty: remove TTY_LDISC_MAGIC
First, it is never checked. Second, use of it as a debugging aid is
at least questionable. With the current tools, I don't think anyone used
this kind of thing for debugging purposes for years.

On the top of that, e.g. serdev does not set this field of tty_ldisc_ops
at all.

So get rid of this legacy.

e229b429bb Char/Misc driver patches for 5.12-rc1
Here is the large set of char/misc/whatever driver subsystem updates for
 5.12-rc1.  Over time it seems like this tree is collecting more and more
 tiny driver subsystems in one place, making it easier for those
 maintainers, which is why this is getting larger.
 
 Included in here are:
 	- coresight driver updates
 	- habannalabs driver updates
 	- virtual acrn driver addition (proper acks from the x86
 	  maintainers)
 	- broadcom misc driver addition
 	- speakup driver updates
 	- soundwire driver updates
 	- fpga driver updates
 	- amba driver updates
 	- mei driver updates
 	- vfio driver updates
 	- greybus driver updates
 	- nvmeem driver updates
 	- phy driver updates
 	- mhi driver updates
 	- interconnect driver udpates
 	- fsl-mc bus driver updates
 	- random driver fix
 	- some small misc driver updates (rtsx, pvpanic, etc.)
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while, with the only reported
 issue being a merge conflict in include/linux/mod_devicetable.h that you
 will hit in your tree due to the dfl_device_id addition from the fpga
 subsystem in here.  The resolution should be simple.

1f7c14afd4 speakup: Make dectlk flush timeout configurable

4f2a81f3a8 speakup: Reference synth from tty and tty from synth
We do not actually need speakup_tty and spk_ttyio_synth global
variables, the synth can store the pointer to the tty, and the tty
ldisc_data can store the pointer to the synth.

Along the way, we can clench the initialization of the synth and the
creation of the tty, so that tty is never NULL. Even if the device
disappears (e.g. USB unplug), the tty structure will still be there,
and we automatically stop speakup in the spk_ttyio_out error handler
but keep tty until the user cleans things up.

As a result, this simplifies locking a lot.

4ea3cd65e0 tty: rename tty_kopen() and add new function tty_kopen_shared()
Introduce a new function tty_kopen_shared() that yields a struct
tty_struct. The semantic difference to tty_kopen() is that the tty is
expected to be used already. So rename tty_kopen() to
tty_kopen_exclusive() for clearness, adapt the single user and put the
common code in a new static helper function.

tty_kopen_shared is to be used to implement an LED trigger for tty
devices in one of the next patches.

f0992098ca speakup: Reject setting the speakup line discipline outside of speakup
Speakup exposing a line discipline allows userland to try to use it,
while it is deemed to be useless, and thus uselessly exposes potential
bugs. One of them is simply that in such a case if the line sends data,
spk_ttyio_receive_buf2 is called and crashes since spk_ttyio_synth
is NULL.

This change restricts the use of the speakup line discipline to
speakup drivers, thus avoiding such kind of issues altogether.

d412275444 speakup: Do not let the line discipline be used several times
Speakup has only one speakup_tty variable to store the tty it is managing. This
makes sense since its codebase currently assumes that there is only one user who
controls the screen reading.

That however means that we have to forbid using the line discipline several
times, otherwise the second closure would try to free a NULL ldisc_data, leading to

640969a69c speakup: Fix clearing selection in safe context
speakup_cut() calls speakup_clear_selection() which calls console_lock.
Problem is: speakup_cut() is called from a keyboard interrupt
context. This would hang if speakup_cut is pressed while the console
lock is unfortunately already held.

We can however as well just defer calling clear_selection() until the
already-deferred set_selection_kernel() call.

This was spotted by the lock hardener:

d7012df3c9 speakup: Fix var_id_t values and thus keymap
commit d97a9d7aea ("staging/speakup: Add inflection synth parameter")
introduced a new "inflection" speakup parameter next to "pitch", but
the values of the var_id_t enum are actually used by the keymap tables
so we must not renumber them. The effect was that notably the volume
control shortcut (speakup-1 or 2) was actually changing the inflection.

This moves the INFLECTION value at the end of the var_id_t enum to
fix back the enum values. This also adds a warning about it.

Fixes: d97a9d7aea ("staging/speakup: Add inflection synth parameter")

28bc24fc46 vc: separate state
There are two copies of some members of struct vc_data. This is because
we need to save them and restore later. Move these memebers to a
separate structure called vc_state. So now instead of members like:
  vc_x, vc_y and vc_saved_x, vc_saved_y
we have
  state and saved_state (of type: struct vc_state)
containing
  state.x, state.y and saved_state.x, saved_state.y

This change:
* makes clear what is saved & restored
* eases save & restore by using memcpy (see save_cur and restore_cur)

Finally, we document the newly added struct vc_state using kernel-doc.

Since commit 84af7a6194 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over

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/'

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

079c9534a9 vt:tackle kbd_table
Keyboard struct lifetime is easy, but the locking is not and is completely
ignored by the existing code. Tackle this one head on

- Make the kbd_table private so we can run down all direct users
- Hoick the relevant ioctl handlers into the keyboard layer
- Lock them with the keyboard lock so they don't change mid keypress
- Add helpers for things like console stop/start so we isolate the poking
  around properly
- Tweak the braille console so it still builds

There are a couple of FIXME locking cases left for ioctls that are so hideous
they should be addressed in a later patch. After this patch the kbd_table is
private and all the keyboard jiggery pokery is in one place.

This update fixes speakup and also a memory leak in the original.

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int.  In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.

It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option.  For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

98b8788ae9 drop explicit include of autoconf.h
kbuild.h forces include of autoconf.h on the
commandline using -include - so we do not need to
include the file explicit.

f7511d5f66 Basic braille screen reader support
This adds a minimalistic braille screen reader support.  This is meant to
be used by blind people e.g.  on boot failures or when / cannot be mounted
etc and thus the userland screen readers can not work.
