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.

"One more fix for 5.16
I had missed one patch when I sent up what I thought was the last
batch of fixes for this release. This one fixes issues on the
Raspberry Pi platforms due to gpio init changes this release, so
hopefully we can get it merged before final release is cut"
* tag 'soc-fixes-5.16-5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/soc/soc:
ARM: dts: gpio-ranges property is now required
Since irq request is the last thing in the driver probe, it happens
later than the input device registration. This means that there is a
small time window where if the open method is called the driver will
attempt to enable not yet available irq.
Fix that by moving the irq request before the input device registration.

breaks the build with libtraceevent-1.3.0, i.e. when building with

- Avoid early exit in 'perf trace' due to running SIGCHLD handler
before it makes sense to. It can happen when using a BPF source code

Since [1], added in 5.7, the absence of a gpio-ranges property has
prevented GPIOs from being restored to inputs when released.

The spaceball.c module was not properly parsing the movement reports
coming from the device. The code read axis data as signed 16-bit
little-endian values starting at offset 2.
In fact, axis data in Spaceball movement reports are signed 16-bit
big-endian values starting at offset 3. This was determined first by
visually inspecting the data packets, and later verified by consulting:

This reverts commit 08efcb4a638d260ef7fcbae64ecf7ceceb3f1841.
This breaks the build as it will prefer using libbpf-devel header files,
even when not using LIBBPF_DYNAMIC=1, breaking the build.
This was detected on OpenSuSE Tumbleweed with libtraceevent-devel 1.3.0,
as described by Jiri Slaby:
=======================================================================
It breaks build with LIBTRACEEVENT_DYNAMIC and version 1.3.0:
> util/debug.c: In function ‘perf_debug_option’:
> util/debug.c:243:17: error: implicit declaration of function
‘tep_set_loglevel’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
> 243 | tep_set_loglevel(TEP_LOG_INFO);
> | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
> util/debug.c:243:34: error: ‘TEP_LOG_INFO’ undeclared (first use in this
function); did you mean ‘TEP_PRINT_INFO’?
> 243 | tep_set_loglevel(TEP_LOG_INFO);

> util/debug.c:247:34: error: ‘TEP_LOG_ALL’ undeclared (first use in this
function)
> 247 | tep_set_loglevel(TEP_LOG_ALL);

It is because the gcc's command line looks like:
gcc
...
-I/home/abuild/rpmbuild/BUILD/tools/lib/
...
-DLIBTRACEEVENT_VERSION=65790
...
=======================================================================
The proper way to fix this is more involved and so not suitable for this
late in the 5.16-rc stage.

Syzbot has reported warning in __flush_work(). This warning is caused by
work->func == NULL, which means missing work initialization.
This may happen, since input_dev->close() calls
cancel_work_sync(&dev->work), but dev->work initalization happens _after_
input_register_device() call.
So this patch moves dev->work initialization before registering input
device

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
"A few more fixes have come in, nothing overly severe but would be good
to get in by final release:
- More specific compatible fields on the qspi controller for socfpga,
to enable quirks in the driver
- A runtime PM fix for Renesas to fix mismatched reference counts on
errors"

reset: renesas: Fix Runtime PM usage
When running 'perf trace' with an BPF object like:
# perf trace -e openat,tools/perf/examples/bpf/hello.c
the event parsing eventually calls llvm__get_kbuild_opts() that runs a
script and that ends up with SIGCHLD delivered to the 'perf trace'
handler, which assumes the workload process is done and quits 'perf
trace'.
Move the SIGCHLD handler setup directly to trace__run(), where the event
is parsed and the object is already compiled.
