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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.

If IOMMU is enabled and Thunderbolt driver is built into the kernel
image, it will be probed before IOMMUs are attached to the PCI bus.
Because of this DMA mappings the driver does will not go through IOMMU
and start failing right after IOMMUs are enabled.
For this reason move the Thunderbolt driver initialization happen at
rootfs level.

This reverts commit 2d4dd0da45401c7ae7332b4d1eb7bbb1348edde9.
This broke earlycon on all Renesas ARM platforms using a SCIF port for the
serial console (R-Car, RZ/A1, RZ/G1, RZ/G2 SoCs), due to an incorrect value
of port->regshift.

If there is a long chain of devices connected when the driver is loaded
ICM sends device connected event for each and those are put to tb->wq
for later processing. Now if the driver gets unloaded in the middle, so
that the work queue is not yet empty it gets flushed by tb_domain_stop().
However, by that time the root switch is already removed so the driver
crashes when it tries to dereference it in ICM event handling callbacks.
Fix this by checking whether the root switch is already removed. If it
is we know that the domain is stopped and we should merely skip handling
the event.

When freeing the fw_priv the item is taken off the list. This causes an
oops in the FW_OPT_NOCACHE case as the list object is not initialized.
Make sure to initialize the list object regardless of this flag.

There are platforms which don't provide input clock rate but provide
I2C timing parameters. Commit 3bd4f277274b ("i2c: designware: Call
i2c_dw_clk_rate() only once in i2c_dw_init_master()") causes needless
warning during probe on those platforms since i2c_dw_clk_rate(), which
causes the warning when input clock is unknown, is called even when
there is no need to calculate timing parameters.
