<title>media: rc: fix race between unregister and urb/irq callbacks</title>

<id>dccc0c3ddf8f16071736f98a7d6dd46a2d43e037</id>
<content type='text'>
Some rc device drivers have a race condition between rc_unregister_device()
and irq or urb callbacks. This is because rc_unregister_device() does two
things, it marks the device as unregistered so no new commands can be
issued and then it calls rc_free_device(). This means the driver has no
chance to cancel any pending urb callbacks or interrupts after the device
has been marked as unregistered. Those callbacks may access struct rc_dev
or its members (e.g. struct ir_raw_event_ctrl), which have been freed by
rc_free_device().

This change removes the implicit call to rc_free_device() from
rc_unregister_device(). This means that device drivers can call
rc_unregister_device() in their remove or disconnect function, then cancel
all the urbs and interrupts before explicitly calling rc_free_device().

Note this is an alternative fix for an issue found by Haotian Zhang, see
the Closes: tags.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

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 *".

hrtimer_setup() takes the callback function pointer as argument and
initializes the timer completely.

Replace hrtimer_init() and the open coded initialization of
hrtimer::function with the new setup mechanism.

Patch was created by using Coccinelle.

<content type='text'>
Since commit 88785982a19d ("media: vb2: use lock if wait_prepare/finish
are NULL") it is no longer needed to set the wait_prepare/finish
vb2_ops callbacks as long as the lock field in vb2_queue is set.

Since the vb2_ops_wait_prepare/finish callbacks already rely on that field,
we can safely drop these callbacks.

This simplifies the code and this is a step towards the goal of deleting
these callbacks.

The PCI hybrid card NotOnlyTV LV3H has a built-in IR receiver connected
via I2C bus, currently not supported. This receiver is probably present
in more Geniatech cards. It has no capability for repeating when a key is
held down.

Add support for this built-in IR receiver. Use the existing Total Media

the LV3H remote.
