<title>treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'</title>

<id>a7f7f6248d9740d710fd6bd190293fe5e16410ac</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

<title>net: switchdev: do not propagate bridge updates across bridges</title>

<id>07c6f9805f12f1bb538ef165a092b300350384aa</id>
<content type='text'>
When configuring a tree of independent bridges, propagating changes
from the upper bridge across a bridge master to the lower bridge
ports brings surprises.

For example, a lower bridge may have vlan filtering enabled.  It
may have a vlan interface attached to the bridge master, which may
then be incorporated into another bridge.  As soon as the lower
bridge vlan interface is attached to the upper bridge, the lower
bridge has vlan filtering disabled.

This occurs because switchdev recursively applies its changes to
all lower devices no matter what.

<title>net: switchdev: Replace zero-length array with flexible-array member</title>

<id>fbfc8502af526578039dc89426224943d199c019</id>
<content type='text'>
The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

Drop switchdev_ops.switchdev_port_attr_set. Drop the uses of this field
from all clients, which were migrated to use switchdev notification in
the previous patches.

Add a new function switchdev_port_attr_notify() that sends the switchdev
notifications SWITCHDEV_PORT_ATTR_SET and calls the blocking (process)
notifier chain.

We have one odd case within net/bridge/br_switchdev.c with the
SWITCHDEV_ATTR_ID_PORT_PRE_BRIDGE_FLAGS attribute identifier that
requires executing from atomic context, we deal with that one
specifically.

Drop __switchdev_port_attr_set() and update switchdev_port_attr_set()
likewise.
