Pull arm64 fixes from Catalin Marinas: "Mostly PMU fixes and a reworking of the pseudo-NMI disabling on broken MediaTek firmware: - Move the MediaTek GIC quirk handling from irqchip to core. Before the merging window commit 44bd78dd2b88 ("irqchip/gic-v3: Disable pseudo NMIs on MediaTek devices w/ firmware issues") temporarily addressed this issue. Fixed now at a deeper level in the arch code - Reject events meant for other PMUs in the CoreSight PMU driver, otherwise some of the core PMU events would disappear - Fix the Armv8 PMUv3 driver driver to not truncate 64-bit registers, causing some events to be invisible - Remove duplicate declaration of __arm64_sys##name following the patch to avoid prototype warning for syscalls - Typos in the elf_hwcap documentation" * tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux: arm64/syscall: Remove duplicate declaration Revert "arm64: smp: avoid NMI IPIs with broken MediaTek FW" arm64: Move MediaTek GIC quirk handling from irqchip to core arm64/arm: arm_pmuv3: perf: Don't truncate 64-bit registers perf: arm_cspmu: Reject events meant for other PMUs Documentation/arm64: Fix typos in elf_hwcaps

x86/Documentation: Indent 'note::' directive for protocol version number note

2023-11-06T11:53:57Z

The protocol version number note is between the protocol version table and the memory layout section. As such, Sphinx renders the note directive not only on the actual note, but until the end of doc. Indent the directive so that only the actual protocol version number note is rendered as such.

Pull sh updates from John Paul Adrian Glaubitz: "While the previously announced patch series for converting arch/sh to device trees is not yet ready for inclusion to mainline and therefore didn't make it for this pull request, there are still a small number changes for v6.7 which include one platform (board plus CPU and driver code) removal plus two fixes. The removal sent in by Arnd Bergmann concerns the microdev board which was an early SuperH prototype board that was never used in production. With the board removed, we were able to drop the now unused code for the SH4-202 CPU and well as the driver code for the superhyway bus and a custom implementation for ioport_map() and ioport_unmap() which will allow us to simplify ioport handling in the future. Another patch set by Geert Uytterhoeven revives SuperH BIOS earlyprintk support which got accidentally disabled in e76fe57447e88916 ("sh: Remove old early serial console code V2"), the second patch in the series updates the documentation. Finally, a patch by Masami Hiramatsu fixes a regression reported by the kernel test robot which uncovered that arch/sh is not implementing arch_cmpxchg_local() and therefore needs use __generic_cmpxchg_local() instead" * tag 'sh-for-v6.7-tag1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/glaubitz/sh-linux: locking/atomic: sh: Use generic_cmpxchg_local for arch_cmpxchg_local() Documentation: kernel-parameters: Add earlyprintk=bios on SH sh: bios: Revive earlyprintk support sh: machvec: Remove custom ioport_{un,}map() sh: Remove superhyway bus support sh: Remove unused SH4-202 support sh: Remove stale microdev board
