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 reStructuredText 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.

PRUSS APIs in pruss_driver.h produce lots of compilation errors when
CONFIG_TI_PRUSS is not set.
The errors and warnings,
warning: returning 'void *' from a function with return type 'int' makes
integer from pointer without a cast [-Wint-conversion]
error: expected identifier or '(' before '{' token
Fix these warnings and errors by fixing the return type of pruss APIs as
well as removing the misplaced semicolon from pruss_cfg_xfr_enable()

The platform device named "rzg2l-usb-vbus-regulator", allocated by
the rzg2l-usbphy-ctrl driver, is used to instantiate a regulator driver.
This regulator driver is associated with a device tree (DT) node, which
is a child of the rzg2l-usbphy-ctrl DT node. The regulator's DT node allows
consumer nodes to reference the regulator and configure the regulator as
needed.
Starting with commit cd7a38c40b23 ("regulator: core: do not silently ignore
provided init_data") the struct regulator_dev::dev::of_node is no longer
populated using of_node_get(config->of_node) if the regulator does not
provide init_data. Since the rzg2l-usb-vbus-regulator does not provide
init_data, this behaviour causes the of_find_regulator_by_node() function
to fails, resulting in errors when attempting to request the regulator.
To fix this issue, call device_set_of_node_from_dev() for the
"rzg2l-usb-vbus-regulator" platform device.

Pull i2c component probing support from Wolfram Sang:
"Add OF component probing.
Some devices are designed and manufactured with some components having
multiple drop-in replacement options. These components are often
connected to the mainboard via ribbon cables, having the same signals
and pin assignments across all options. These may include the display
panel and touchscreen on laptops and tablets, and the trackpad on
laptops. Sometimes which component option is used in a particular
device can be detected by some firmware provided identifier, other
times that information is not available, and the kernel has to try to
probe each device.
Instead of a delicate dance between drivers and device tree quirks,
this change introduces a simple I2C component probe function. For a
given class of devices on the same I2C bus, it will go through all of
them, doing a simple I2C read transfer and see which one of them
responds. It will then enable the device that responds"

Pull bprintf() removal from Steven Rostedt:
- Remove unused bprintf() function, that was added with the rest of the
"bin-printf" functions.
These are functions that are used by trace_printk() that allows to
quickly save the format and arguments into the ring buffer without
the expensive processing of converting numbers to ASCII. Then on
output, at a much later time, the ring buffer is read and the string
processing occurs then. The bprintf() was added for consistency but
was never used. It can be safely removed.

entry unfortunately has a typo.

In the previous commit referenced below, I had to split
the short fops handling into different proxy fops. This
necessitated knowing out-of-band whether or not the ops
are short or full, when attempting to convert from fops
to allocated fsdata.
Unfortunately, I only converted full_proxy_open() which
is used for the new full_proxy_open_regular() and
full_proxy_open_short(), but forgot about the call in
open_proxy_open(), used for debugfs_create_file_unsafe().
Fix that, it never has short fops.
