Pull staging driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of staging driver updates for 6.7-rc1. A bit
  bigger than 6.6 this time around, as it coincided with the Outreachy
  and mentorship application process, so we got a bunch of new
  developers sending in their first changes, which is nice to see.

  Also in here is a removal of the qlge ethernet driver, and the
  rtl8192u wireless driver. Both of these were very old and no one was
  maintaining them, the wireless driver removal was due to no one using
  it anymore, and no hardware to be found, and is part of a larger
  effort to remove unused and old wifi drivers from the system.

  The qlge ethernet driver did have one user pop up after it was
  dropped, and we are working with the network mainainers to figure out
  what tree it will come back in from and who will be responsible for
  it, and if it really is being used or not. Odds are it will show up in
  a network subsystem pull request after -rc1 is out, but we aren't sure
  yet.

  Other smaller changes in here are:

   - Lots of vc04_services work by Umang to clean up the mess created by
     the rpi developers long ago, bringing it almost into good enough
     shape to get out of staging, hopefully next major release, it's
     getting close.

   - rtl8192e variable cleanups and removal of unused code and
     structures

   - vme_user coding style cleanups

   - other small coding style cleanups to lots of the staging drivers

   - octeon typedef removals, and then last-minute revert when it was
     found to break the build in some configurations (it's a hard driver
     to build properly, none of the normal automated testing catches
     it.)

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

CDX controller provides subsystem vendor, subsystem device, class and
revision info of the device along with vendor and device ID in native
endian format. CDX Bus system uses this information to bind the cdx
device to the cdx device driver.

<title>staging: vc04_services: Support module autoloading using MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE</title>

<content type='text'>
VC04 has now a independent bus vchiq_bus to register its devices.
However, the module auto-loading for bcm2835-audio and bcm2835-camera
currently happens through MODULE_ALIAS() macro specified explicitly.

The correct way to auto-load a module, is when the alias is picked
out from MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). In order to get there, we need to
introduce  vchiq_device_id and add relevant entries in file2alias.c
infrastructure so that aliases can be generated. This patch targets
adding vchiq_device_id and do_vchiq_entry, in order to
generate those alias using the /script/mod/file2alias.c.

Going forward the MODULE_ALIAS() from bcm2835-camera and bcm2835-audio
will be dropped, in favour of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE being used there.

The alias format for vchiq_bus devices will be "vchiq:&lt;dev_name&gt;".
Adjust the vchiq_bus_uevent() to reflect that.

<title>modpost: fix ishtp MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE built on big-endian host</title>

<id>ac96a15a0f0c8812a3aaa587b871cd5527f6d736</id>
<content type='text'>
When MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(ishtp, ) is built on a host with a different
endianness from the target architecture, it results in an incorrect
MODULE_ALIAS().

For example, see a case where drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.c
is built as a module for x86.

If you build it on a little-endian host, you will get the correct
MODULE_ALIAS:

    $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.mod.c
    MODULE_ALIAS("ishtp:{6A19CC4B-D760-4DE3-B14D-F25EBD0FBCD9}");

However, if you build it on a big-endian host, you will get a wrong
MODULE_ALIAS:

    $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/platform/x86/intel/ishtp_eclite.mod.c
    MODULE_ALIAS("ishtp:{BD0FBCD9-F25E-B14D-4DE3-D7606A19CC4B}");

This issue has been unnoticed because the x86 kernel is most likely built
natively on an x86 host.

The guid field must not be reversed because guid_t is an array of __u8.

When MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(tee, ) is built on a host with a different
endianness from the target architecture, it results in an incorrect
MODULE_ALIAS().

For example, see a case where drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.c
is built as a module for ARM little-endian.

If you build it on a little-endian host, you will get the correct
MODULE_ALIAS:

    $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.mod.c
    MODULE_ALIAS("tee:ab7a617c-b8e7-4d8f-8301-d09b61036b64*");

However, if you build it on a big-endian host, you will get a wrong
MODULE_ALIAS:

    $ grep MODULE_ALIAS drivers/char/hw_random/optee-rng.mod.c
    MODULE_ALIAS("tee:646b0361-9bd0-0183-8f4d-e7b87c617aab*");

The same problem also occurs when you enable CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN,
and build it on a little-endian host.

This issue has been unnoticed because the ARM kernel is configured for
little-endian by default, and most likely built on a little-endian host
(cross-build on x86 or native-build on ARM).

The uuid field must not be reversed because uuid_t is an array of __u8.

Without this 'else' statement, an "usb" name goes into two handlers:
the first/previous 'if' statement _AND_ the for-loop over 'devtable',
but the latter is useless as it has no 'usb' device_id entry anyway.

Tested with allmodconfig before/after patch; no changes to *.mod.c:

    git checkout v6.6-rc3
    make -j$(nproc) allmodconfig
    make -j$(nproc) olddefconfig

    make -j$(nproc)
    find . -name '*.mod.c' | cpio -pd /tmp/before

    # apply patch

    make -j$(nproc)
    find . -name '*.mod.c' | cpio -pd /tmp/after

    diff -r /tmp/before/ /tmp/after/
    # no difference

vfio-cdx driver enables IOCTLs for user space to query
MMIO regions for CDX devices and mmap them. This change
also adds support for reset of CDX devices. With VFIO
enabled on CDX devices, user-space applications can also
exercise DMA securely via IOMMU on these devices.

This change adds the VFIO CDX driver and enables the following
ioctls for CDX devices:
 - VFIO_DEVICE_GET_INFO:
 - VFIO_DEVICE_GET_REGION_INFO
 - VFIO_DEVICE_RESET

Introduce AMD CDX bus, which provides a mechanism for scanning
and probing CDX devices. These devices are memory mapped on
system bus for Application Processors(APUs).

CDX devices can be changed dynamically in the Fabric and CDX
bus interacts with CDX controller to rescan the bus and
rediscover the devices.
