<content type='text'>
Although portman2x4 driver has a check of the given devptr-&gt;id value,
it doesn't check for a negative id, which is often given as "none" or
such value when bound via sysfs.  This may lead to OOB access for
index[] and other parameters.

Add a sanity check for the card index and warn/correct it if it's a
value out of the range.

<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'>
After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove()
return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for
platform drivers.

Convert all platform drivers below sound to use .remove(), with
the eventual goal to drop struct platform_driver::remove_new(). As
.remove() and .remove_new() have the same prototypes, conversion is done
by just changing the structure member name in the driver initializer.

On the way do a few whitespace changes to make indention consistent.

Use the standard print API with dev_*() instead of the old house-baked
one.  It gives better information and allows dynamically control of
debug prints.

'devmodel' hasn't actually been used since:
  'commit 3275158fa52a ("parport: remove use of devmodel")'
and everyone now has it set to true and has been fixed up; remove
the flag.

(There are still comments all over about it)

ASoC: Updates for v6.4

The bulk of the commits here are for the conversion of drivers to use
void remove callbacks but there's a reasonable amount of other stuff
going on, the pace of development with the SOF code continues to be high
and there's a bunch of new drivers too:

 - More core cleanups from Morimto-san.
 - Update drivers to have remove() callbacks returning void, mostly
   mechanical with some substantial changes.
 - Continued feature and simplification work on SOF, including addition
   of a no-DSP mode for bringup, HDA MLink and extensions to the IPC4
   protocol.
 - Hibernation support for CS35L45.
 - More DT binding conversions.
 - Support for Cirrus Logic CS35L56, Freescale QMC, Maxim MAX98363,
   nVidia systems with MAX9809x and RT5631, Realtek RT712, Renesas R-Car
   Gen4, Rockchip RK3588 and TI TAS5733.

<content type='text'>
The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is (mostly) ignored
and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a
quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this
quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns
void.

Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.
