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.

Pull USB fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are some small USB fixes for 5.16-rc5. They include:
- gadget driver fixes for reported issues
- xhci fixes for reported problems.
- config endpoint parsing fixes for where we got bitfields wrong
Most of these have been in linux-next, the remaining few were not, but
got lots of local testing in my systems and in some cloud testing
infrastructures"

Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Two fixes for clock chip drivers:
- A regression fix for the Designware APB timer. A recent change to
the error checking code transformed the error condition wrongly so
it turned into a fail if good condition.
- Fix a clang build fail of the ARM architected timer driver"

clocksource/drivers/dw_apb_timer_of: Fix probe failure
For whatever reason, some devices like QCA6390, WCN6855 using ath11k
are not in M3 state during PM resume, but still functional. The
mhi_pm_resume should then not fail in those cases, and let the higher
level device specific stack continue resuming process.
Add an API mhi_pm_resume_force(), to force resuming irrespective of the
current MHI state. This fixes a regression with non functional ath11k WiFi
after suspend/resume cycle on some machines.

The checks performed by commit aed9d65ac327 ("USB: validate
wMaxPacketValue entries in endpoint descriptors") require that initial
value of the maxp variable contains both maximum packet size bits
(10..0) and multiple-transactions bits (12..11). However, the existing
code assings only the maximum packet size bits. This patch assigns all
bits of wMaxPacketSize to the variable.

2nd set of IIO fixes for 5.16
Note 1st set were before the merge window.
Biggest set in here fix what happens when things go wrong in
the interrupt handlers for an IIO trigger.
Otherwise normal mix of recent and ancient bugs.
trigger core
- Fix reference counting bug that was preventing the iio_trig
structures from being released.
adxrs290
- Correctly sign extend the rate and temperature data.
at91-sama5d2
- Fix sign extension from the wrong bit and use the scan_type
values to avoid it being open coded in two places (which were
out of sync)
axp20x_adc
- Fix current reporting bit depth.
dln2-adc
- Fix a lock ordering issue and lockdep complaint that results.
- Add error handling for failure to register the trigger.
imx8qxp
- Wrong config dependency
kxcjk-1013
- Potential leak due to wrong guard on cleanup.
ltr501, kxsd9, stk3310, itg3200, ad7768
- Don't return error codes from interrupt handler and call
iio_trigger_notify_done() on all paths to avoid leaving
trigger disabled on an intermittent fault.
mma8452
- Fix missing iio_trigger_get() that could lead to use after free.
stm32
- Fix a current leak.
- Avoid null pointer derefence on defer_probe error due to wrong
struct device being passed.
stm32-timer
- Drop space in MODULE_ALIAS.

Under some conditions, USB gadget devices can show allocated buffer
contents to a host. Fix this up by zero-allocating them so that any
extra data will all just be zeros.

Pull scheduler fix from Thomas Gleixner:

Using cluster topology on hybrid CPUs, e.g. Alder Lake, biases the
scheduler towards the ATOM cluster as that has more total capacity.
Use selection based on CPU priority instead"
