Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.

This driver does not actually work with DMA mode, but still tries
to call ISA DMA interface functions that are stubbed out on
parisc, resulting in a W=1 build warning:
drivers/parport/parport_gsc.c: In function 'parport_remove_chip':
drivers/parport/parport_gsc.c:389:20: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an 'if' statement [-Wempty-body]

by default in all kernels.

This happens because patching static key code temporarily maps it via
fixmap and if it happens before page allocator is initialized set_fixmap()
cannot allocate memory using pte_alloc_kernel().
Make sure that fixmap page tables are preallocated early so that
pte_offset_kernel() in set_fixmap() never resorts to pte allocation.

In the patch ("spi: spi-qcom-qspi: Fallback to PIO for xfers that
aren't multiples of 4 bytes") we detect reads that we can't handle
properly and fallback to PIO mode. While that's correct behavior, we
can do better by adding "spi_controller_mem_ops" for our
controller. Once we do this then the caller will give us a transfer
that's a multiple of 4-bytes so we can DMA.

After syncing the enable status of VCN33_WIFI to VCN33_BT, the driver
will disable VCN33_WIFI. If it fails it will error out with a message.
However the error message incorrectly refers to VCN33_BT.
Fix the error message so that it correctly refers to VCN33_WIFI.

The Qualcomm QSPI driver appears to require that any reads using DMA
are a mutliple of 4 bytes. If this isn't true then the controller will
clobber any extra bytes in memory following the last word. Let's
detect this and falback to PIO.
This fixes problems reported by slub_debug=FZPUA, which would complain
about "kmalloc Redzone overwritten". One such instance said:
0xffffff80c29d541a-0xffffff80c29d541b @offset=21530. First byte 0x0 instead of 0xcc
Allocated in mtd_kmalloc_up_to+0x98/0xac age=36 cpu=3 pid=6658
Tracing through what was happening I saw that, while we often did DMA
tranfers of 0x1000 bytes, sometimes we'd end up doing ones of 0x41a
bytes. Those 0x41a byte transfers were the problem.
NOTE: a future change will enable the SPI "mem ops" to help avoid this
case, but it still seems good to add the extra check in the transfer.
