<title>cxl/mem: Introduce a driver for CXL-2.0-Type-3 endpoints</title>

<id>urn:sha1:4cdadfd5e0a70017fec735b7b6d7f2f731842dc6</id>
<content type='text'>
The CXL.mem protocol allows a device to act as a provider of "System
RAM" and/or "Persistent Memory" that is fully coherent as if the memory
was attached to the typical CPU memory controller.

With the CXL-2.0 specification a PCI endpoint can implement a "Type-3"
device interface and give the operating system control over "Host
Managed Device Memory". See section 2.3 Type 3 CXL Device.

The memory range exported by the device may optionally be described by
the platform firmware memory map, or by infrastructure like LIBNVDIMM to
provision persistent memory capacity from one, or more, CXL.mem devices.

A pre-requisite for Linux-managed memory-capacity provisioning is this
cxl_mem driver that can speak the mailbox protocol defined in section
8.2.8.4 Mailbox Registers.

For now just land the initial driver boiler-plate and Documentation/
infrastructure.

SFI-based platforms are gone. So does this framework.

This removes mention of SFI through the drivers and other code as well.

Pull asm-generic cross-architecture timer cleanup from Arnd Bergmann:
 "This cleans up two ancient timer features that were never completed in
  the past, CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and CONFIG_ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET.

  There was only one user left for the ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET variant
  of clocksource implementations, the ARM EBSA110 platform. Rather than
  changing to use modern timekeeping, we remove the platform entirely as
  Russell no longer uses his machine and nobody else seems to have one
  any more.

  The conditional code for using arch_gettimeoffset() is removed as a
  result.

  For CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, there are still a couple of platforms
  not using clockevent drivers: parisc, ia64, most of m68k, and one Arm
  platform. These all do timer ticks slighly differently, and this gets
  cleaned up to the point they at least all call the same helper
  function.

  Instead of most platforms using 'select GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS' in
  Kconfig, the polarity is now reversed, with the few remaining ones
  selecting LEGACY_TIMER_TICK instead"

drivers/vdpa/mlx5/ uses vhost_iotlb*() interfaces, so select
VHOST_IOTLB to make them be built.

However, if VHOST_IOTLB is the only VHOST symbol that is
set/enabled, the object file still won't be built because
drivers/Makefile won't descend into drivers/vhost/ to build it,
so make drivers/Makefile build the needed binary whenever
VHOST_IOTLB is set, like it does for VHOST_RING.

Fixes these build errors:
ERROR: modpost: "vhost_iotlb_itree_next" [drivers/vdpa/mlx5/mlx5_vdpa.ko] undefined!
ERROR: modpost: "vhost_iotlb_itree_first" [drivers/vdpa/mlx5/mlx5_vdpa.ko] undefined!

Fixes: 29064bfdabd5 ("vdpa/mlx5: Add support library for mlx5 VDPA implementation")
Fixes: aff90770e54c ("vdpa/mlx5: Fix dependency on MLX5_CORE")

We have both vhost and virtio drivers that depend on vdpa.
It's easier to locate it at a top level directory otherwise
we run into issues e.g. if vhost is built-in but virtio
is modular.  Let's just move it up a level.

Since the driver now supports USB4 which is the standard going forward,
update the Kconfig entry to mention this and rename the entry from
CONFIG_THUNDERBOLT to CONFIG_USB4 instead to help people to find the
correct option if they want to enable USB4.

Also do the same for Thunderbolt network driver.
