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 reStructuredText 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.

i2c: omap: fix IRQ storms
Commit c780d01cf1a6 ("media: vb2: vb2_core_queue_init(): sanity check lock
and wait_prepare/finish") added a sanity check to ensure that if there are
no wait_prepare/finish callbacks set by the driver, then the vb2_queue lock
must be set, since otherwise the vb2 core cannot do correct locking.
The rtl2832_sdr.c triggered this warning: it turns out that while the
driver does set this lock, it sets it too late. So move it up to before
the vb2_queue_init() call.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Fix ref count of trace_array in error path of histogram file open
Tracing instances have a ref count to keep them around while files
within their directories are open. This prevents them from being
deleted while they are used.
The histogram code had some files that needed to take the ref count
and that was added, but the error paths did not decrement the ref
counts. This caused the instances from ever being removed if a
histogram file failed to open due to some error"
* tag 'trace-v6.14-rc5' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace:
tracing: Correct the refcount if the hist/hist_debug file fails to open
i2c-host-fixes for v6.14-rc7
- omap: fixed irq ACKS to avoid irq storming and system hang.
- ali1535, ali15x3, sis630: fixed error path at probe exit.
Pull USB fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are some small USB and Thunderbolt driver fixes and new
usb-serial device ids. Included in here are:
- new usb-serial device ids
- typec driver bugfix
- thunderbolt driver resume bugfix
All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues"
* tag 'usb-6.14-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb:
usb: typec: tcpm: fix state transition for SNK_WAIT_CAPABILITIES state in run_state_machine()
USB: serial: ftdi_sio: add support for Altera USB Blaster 3
thunderbolt: Prevent use-after-free in resume from hibernate
USB: serial: option: fix Telit Cinterion FE990A name
USB: serial: option: add Telit Cinterion FE990B compositions
USB: serial: option: match on interface class for Telit FN990B
The function event_{hist,hist_debug}_open() maintains the refcount of
'file->tr' and 'file' through tracing_open_file_tr(). However, it does
not roll back these counts on subsequent failure paths, resulting in a
refcount leak.
A very obvious case is that if the hist/hist_debug file belongs to a
specific instance, the refcount leak will prevent the deletion of that
instance, as it relies on the condition 'tr->ref == 1' within
__remove_instance().
Fix this by calling tracing_release_file_tr() on all failure paths in
event_{hist,hist_debug}_open() to correct the refcount.

A subtle error got introduced while manually fixing merge conflict in
tcpm.c for commit 85c4efbe6088 ("Merge v6.12-rc6 into usb-next"). As a
result of this error, the next state is unconditionally set to
SNK_WAIT_CAPABILITIES_TIMEOUT while handling SNK_WAIT_CAPABILITIES state
in run_state_machine(...).
Fix this by setting new state of TCPM state machine to `upcoming_state`
(that is set to different values based on conditions).
