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.

For both PASID-based-Device-TLB Invalidate Descriptor and
Device-TLB Invalidate Descriptor, the Physical Function Source-ID
value is split according to this layout:
PFSID[3:0] is set at offset 12 and PFSID[15:4] is put at offset 52.
Fix the part laid out at offset 52.

Pull i2c fixes from Wolfram Sang:
"An I2C core fix to prevent a use-after-free in a rare error path,
and an I2C ACPI addition to work around broken HW/firmware related
to touchscreens"

uclamp_update_active() should perform the update when
p->uclamp[clamp_id].active is true. But when the logic was inverted in
[1], the if condition wasn't inverted correctly too.

Update the INTEL IOMMU (VT-d) entry and add myself as the
co-maintainer. I have several years of VT-d development
experience and have actively contributed to Intel VT-d
driver during recent two years. I volunteer to take this
rule. With this role, I can better help review and test
patches.

Many cheap devices use Silead touchscreen controllers. Testing has shown
repeatedly that these touchscreen controllers work fine at 400KHz, but for
unknown reasons do not work properly at 100KHz. This has been seen on
both ARM and x86 devices using totally different i2c controllers.
On some devices the ACPI tables list another device at the same I2C-bus
as only being capable of 100KHz, testing has shown that these other
devices work fine at 400KHz (as can be expected of any recent I2C hw).
This commit makes i2c_acpi_find_bus_speed() always return 400KHz if a
Silead touchscreen controller is present, fixing the touchscreen not
working on devices which ACPI tables' wrongly list another device on the
same bus as only being capable of 100KHz.
Specifically this fixes the touchscreen on the Jumper EZpad 6 m4 not
working.
