Set maple driver data before calling input_register_device() to
ensure that it is available if the device is opened immediately and
the callback is triggered.

<content type='text'>
Commit 555c765b0cc2 ("Input: mouse - drop unnecessary calls to
input_set_drvdata") dropped the input_set_drvdata() call in probe
because the data appeared to be unused. However, dc_mouse_open() and
dc_mouse_close() were using maple_get_drvdata(to_maple_dev(&amp;dev-&gt;dev)).
This appears to be accessing the data attached to an instance of
maple_device structure, while in reality this actually retrieves driver
data from the input device's embedded struct device (doing invalid
conversion of input device structure to maple device). After
input_set_drvdata() was removed, that lookup started returning NULL and
opening the input device dereferences mse-&gt;mdev.

Restore input_set_drvdata() and convert open() and close() to use
input_get_drvdata() so the dependency is no longer hidden.

Fixes: 6b3480855aad ("maple: input: fix up maple mouse driver")
Fixes: 555c765b0cc2 ("Input: mouse - drop unnecessary calls to input_set_drvdata")

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<content type='text'>
It is preferred to use sizeof(*pointer) instead of sizeof(type)
due to the type of the variable can change and one needs not
change the former (unlike the latter). This patch has no effect
on runtime behavior.

Since there is no call to dev_get_drvdata() or input_get_drvdata(),
the call to input_set_drvdata() is unnecessary and can be dropped.
