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.

Merge tag 'driver-core-5.18-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core fixes from Greg KH:
"Here is one fix, and three documentation updates for 5.18-rc7.
The fix is for the firmware loader which resolves a long-reported
problem where the credentials of the firmware loader could be set to a
userspace process without enough permissions to actually load the
firmware image. Many Android vendors have been reporting this for
quite some time.
The documentation updates are for the embargoed-hardware-issues.rst
file to add a new entry, change an existing one, and sort the list to
make changes easier in the future.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

If an irq is pending when devm_request_irq() is called, the irq
handler will cause a NULL pointer access because initialisation
is not done yet.

platform_get_irq() returns non-zero IRQ number on success,
negative error number on failure.
And the doc of platform_get_irq() provides a usage example:
int irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, 0);
if (irq < 0)
return irq;
Fix the check of return value to catch errors correctly.

Ignore compatible strings for the IPA virt drivers that were removed in
commits 2fb251c26560 ("interconnect: qcom: sdx55: Drop IP0
interconnects") and 2f3724930eb4 ("interconnect: qcom: sc7180: Drop IP0
interconnects") so that the sync state logic can kick in again.
Otherwise all the interconnects in the system will stay pegged at max
speeds because 'providers_count' is always going to be one larger than
the number of drivers that will ever probe on sc7180 or sdx55. This
fixes suspend on sc7180 and sdx55 devices when you don't have a
devicetree patch to remove the ipa-virt compatible node.

The list appears to be grouped by type (silicon, software, cloud) and
mostly alphabetical within each group, with a few exceptions.
Before adding to it, cleanup the list to be alphabetical within the
groups, and use tabs consistently throughout the list.
