The virt_to_bus/bus_to_virt interface has been deprecated for
decades. After Jakub Kicinski put a lot of work into cleaning out the
network drivers using them, there are only a couple of other drivers
left, which can all be removed or otherwise cleaned up, to remove the
old interface for good.

Any out of tree drivers using virt_to_bus() should be converted to
using the dma-mapping interfaces, typically dma_alloc_coherent()
or dma_map_single()).

There are a few m68k and ppc32 specific drivers that keep using the
interfaces, but these are all guarded with architecture-specific
Kconfig dependencies, and are not actually broken. It might be
helpful as a follow-up to replace them with platform specific
helpers for amiga, m68k-vme and powermac.

There are still a number of drivers that are using virt_to_phys()
and phys_to_virt() in place of dma-mapping operations, and these
are often broken, but they are out of scope for this series.

<id>urn:sha1:f093247e8519e86f55757221c8aee1b194797f2d</id>
<content type='text'>
All architecture-independent users of virt_to_bus() and bus_to_virt()
have been fixed to use the dma mapping interfaces or have been
removed now.  This means the definitions on most architectures, and the
CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS symbol are now obsolete and can be removed.

The only exceptions to this are a few network and scsi drivers for m68k
Amiga and VME machines and ppc32 Macintosh. These drivers work correctly
with the old interfaces and are probably not worth changing.

On alpha and parisc, virt_to_bus() were still used in asm/floppy.h.
alpha can use isa_virt_to_bus() like x86 does, and parisc can just
open-code the virt_to_phys() here, as this is architecture specific
code.

I tried updating the bus-virt-phys-mapping.rst documentation, which
started as an email from Linus to explain some details of the Linux-2.0
driver interfaces. The bits about virt_to_bus() were declared obsolete
backin 2000, and the rest is not all that relevant any more, so in the
end I just decided to remove the file completely.

PREEMPT_RT preempts softirqs and the current implementation avoids
do_softirq_own_stack() and only uses __do_softirq().

Disable the unused softirqs stacks on PREEMPT_RT to save some memory and
ensure that do_softirq_own_stack() is not used bwcause it is not expected.

     mprotect().

     most architectures with a working cmpxchg or ll/sc type atomic,
     including the conversion of riscv, csky and openrisc. This series
     is also a prerequisite for the loongarch64 architecture port that
