dmaengine: ioatdma: move sysfs entry definition out of header

Move struct ioat_sysfs_entry into sysfs.c because it is only used in it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Weißschuh Reviewed-by: Frank Li Acked-by: Dave Jiang Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260304-sysfs-const-ioat-v2-2-b9b82651219b@weissschuh.net Signed-off-by: Vinod Koul

dmaengine: ioatdma: make some sysfs structures static

These structures are only used in sysfs.c, where are defined. Make them static and remove them from the header.

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28Z

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

treewide: Drop pci_save_state() after pci_restore_state()

2025-11-24T22:58:59Z

In 2009, commit c82f63e411f1 ("PCI: check saved state before restore") changed the behavior of pci_restore_state() such that it became necessary to call pci_save_state() afterwards, lest recovery from subsequent PCI errors fails. The commit has just been reverted and so all the pci_save_state() after pci_restore_state() calls that have accumulated in the tree are now superfluous. Drop them. Two drivers chose a different approach to achieve the same result: drivers/scsi/ipr.c and drivers/net/ethernet/intel/e1000e/netdev.c set the pci_dev's "state_saved" flag to true before calling pci_restore_state(). Drop this as well.

dmaengine: ioat: Move system_has_dca_enabled() to dma.h

2025-08-27T18:14:07Z

Move the function prototype for system_has_dca_enabled() from hw.h to dma.h. This allows hw.h to be included from tools/, which will be used in a subsysequent commit to implement a userspace driver for Intel CBDMA devices in tools/testing/selftests/vfio. No functional change intended.

x86/cpuid: Set as the main CPUID header

2025-05-15T16:23:55Z

The main CPUID header was originally a storefront for the headers: Now that the latter CPUID(0x2) header has been merged into the former, there is no practical difference between and . Migrate all users to the header, in preparation of the removal of . Don't remove just yet, in case some new code in -next started using it. Suggested-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Ahmed S.
