Merge branch 'maintainers-annual-cleanup-of-inactive-maintainers'

Jakub Kicinski says:

====================
MAINTAINERS: annual cleanup of inactive maintainers

Annual cleanup of inactive maintainers under networking.
The goal is to make sure MAINTAINERS reflect reality for
code which is relatively actively changed (at least 70 commits
in the last 2 years or at least 120 commits in the last 5 years).

Those who either:
- were the initial author / "upstreamer" of the driver; or
- authored at least 1/3rd of the exiting code base (per git blame); or
- authored at least 25% of commits before becoming inactive
are moved to CREDITS.

The discovery of inactive maintainers was done using gitdm tools,
with a bunch of ad-hoc scripts on top to do the rest. I tried to
double check the results but this is mostly a scripted cleanup
so please report inaccuracies if any.

Merge tag 'net-next-7.0' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:

- A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls
for small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path.

This generates better and faster code with very small or no text
size increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than
the actual inlined helper.

- Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
basis.

- Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage
by up to ~30%.

- Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the
RX path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without
the HBH hint.

- Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
resolved out of a different interface than the one specified,
aligning IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.

- Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the
rate shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing
a single global rate on the interface.

- Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to
netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations
that are safer in crash scenarios.

- Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information,
saving cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.

- Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most
protocols, avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.

- Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.

- Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.

- Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies
between the notification sequence and the actual states sequence.

- Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks
across different network namespaces.

- Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented
optimizations.

- Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole
to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes
back online.

Driver API:

- Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a
DPLL device via netlink.

- Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing
media ports over a single MAC.

- Introduce "rx-polarity" and "tx-polarity" device tree properties,
to generalize polarity inversion requirements for differential
signaling.

- Add helper to create, prepare and enable managed clocks.

Device drivers:

- Add Huawei hinic3 PF etherner driver.

- Add DWMAC glue driver for Motorcomm YT6801 PCIe ethernet
controller.

- Add ethernet driver for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches

- Remove parallel-port Ethernet driver.

- Convert existing driver timestamp configuration reporting to
hwtstamp_get and remove legacy ioctl().

- Convert existing drivers to .get_rx_ring_count(), simplifing the RX
ring count retrieval. Also remove the legacy fallback path.

- Ethernet high-speed NICs:
- Broadcom (bnxt, bng):
- bnxt: add FW interface update to support FEC stats histogram

leading to 12% RX tput improvement
- Intel (100G, ice, idpf):
- ice: reorganizes layout of Tx and Rx rings for cacheline
locality and utilizes __cacheline_group* macros on the new
layouts
- ice: introduces Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) support
- Meta (fbnic):
- adds debugfs for firmware mailbox and tx/rx rings vectors

This release is almost all abut driers, there's very little core work
here, although some of that driver work is in more generic areas like
SDCA and SOF:

- Generic SDCA support for reporting jack events.
- Continuing platform support, cleanup and feature improements for the
AMD, Intel, Qualcomm and SOF code.
- Platform description improvements for the Cirrus drivers.
- Support for NXP i.MX952, Realtek RT1320 and RT5575, and Sophogo
CV1800B.

We also pulled in one small SPI API update and some more substantial
regmap work (cache description improvements) for use in drivers.

EDAC/r82600: Remove this obsolete driver

This driver supports the Radisys 82600 embedded chipset, which was used with
Pentium III-era CPUs. It is highly unlikely that it is still used. Besides
its own documentation, the only information I was able to find about the
R82600, after looking through many pages of Google results, was that it was
used in a Nokia 2G GSM base station.

The original author said:

"This was after Bluesmoke (watch was out-of-tree), and was pay of the first
set of in tree edac drivers (a fresh design as far as I remember).

This particular driver did apparently get used by Akamai quite heavily and
widely  but all ancient history now. The Radisys r82600 edac driver 
r82600_edac.c was closely related hardware from the same era, and can probably
go too (although being embedded hardware, it's possible its production
lifespan was considerably longer).

Among the few spi-mem patches, they are needed for building the SPI NAND
changes (especially the ODTR introduction at the end) and therefore an
immutable tag will be needed for merging in the MTD tree (unless all the

but the dependency on BROKEN was never removed. Given that this was never

net: ethernet: neterion: s2io: remove unused driver

The s2io driver supports Exar (formerly Neterion and S2io) PCI-X 10
Gigabit Ethernet cards. Hardware supporting PCI-X has not been
manufactured in years. On x86, it was quickly replaced by PCIe. While
it stuck around longer on POWER hardware, the last POWER hardware to
support it was POWER7, which is not supported by ppc64le Linux
distributions. The last supported mainstream ppc64 Linux distribution
was RHEL 7; while it is still supported under ELS, ELS is only
available for x86 and IBM Z. It is possible to use many PCI-X cards in
standard PCI slots (which are still available on new motherboards), but
it does not make sense to do so for 10 Gigabit Ethernet because the
maximum bandwidth of standard PCI is only 1067 Mbps. It is therefore
highly unlikely that this driver is still being used. Remove the
driver, and move the former maintainer to the CREDITS file (restoring
credit for the vxge driver, which was removed in commit f05643a0f60b

The primary goal of this series is to support non-spi-mem devices in
the ASPEED FMC/SPI controller driver. It also addresses an issue in
the spi-mem framework observed when different types of SPI devices
operate concurrently on the same controller, ensuring that spi-mem
operations are properly serialized.

Merge series from "Sheetal ." <sheetal@nvidia.com>:

This series adds a reg_default_cb callback for REGCACHE_FLAT to provide
defaults for registers not listed in reg_defaults. Defaults are loaded
eagerly during regcache init and the callback can use writeable_reg to
filter valid addresses and avoid holes.

ASoC: codec: Remove ak4641/pxa2xx-ac97 and convert to

Merge series from "Peng Fan (OSS)" <peng.fan@oss.nxp.com>:

The main goal is to convert drivers to use GPIO descriptors. While reading
the code, I think it is time to remove ak4641 and pxa2xx-ac97 driver,
more info could be found in commit log of each patch.
Then only need to convert sound/arm/pxa2xx-ac97-lib.c to use GPIO
descriptors. Not have hardware to test the pxa2xx ac97.
