docs: netdev: document guidance on cleanup patches

The purpose of this section is to document what is the current practice
regarding clean-up patches which address checkpatch warnings and similar
problems. I feel there is a value in having this documented so others
can easily refer to it.

Clearly this topic is subjective. And to some extent the current
practice discourages a wider range of patches than is described here.
But I feel it is best to start somewhere, with the most well established
part of the current practice.

A bunch of fixes here that came in during the merge window and the first
week of release, plus some new quirks and device IDs. There's nothing
major here, it's a bit bigger than it might've been due to there being
no fixes sent during the merge window due to your vacation.

Merge tag 'i2c-host-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/andi.shyti/linux into i2c/for-mergewindow

Merge tag 'i2c-host-6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/andi.shyti/linux into i2c/for-mergewindow

The DesignWare and the Renesas I2C drivers have received most of
the changes in this pull request.

The first has has undergone through a series of cleanups that
have been sent to the mailing list a year ago for the first time
and finally get merged in this pull request. They are many, from
typos (e.g. i2/i2c), to cosmetics, to refactoring (e.g. move
inline functions to librarieas) and many others.

Besides that, all the DesignWare Kconfig options have been
grouped under the I2C_DESIGNWARE_CORE and this required some
adaptation in many of the kernel configuration files for
different arm and mips boards.

Follows the list of the rest of the changes grouped by type of
change.

Cleanups
--------
The Qualcomm Geni platform improves the exit path in the runtime
resume function.

The Intel LJCA driver loses "target_addr" parameter in
ljca_i2c_stop() because it was unused.

The MediaTek controller intializes the restart_flag in the
transfer function using the ternary conditional operator ("? :")
instead of initializing it in different parts.

Constified a few global data structures in the virtio driver.

The Renesas driver simplifies the bus speed handling in the init
function making it more readable.

Improved an if/else statement in probe function of the Renesas
R-Car driver.

The iMX/MXC driver switches to using the RUNTIME_PM_OPS() instead
of SET_RUNTIME_PM_OPS().

Still in the iMX/MXC driver a comma ',' has been replaced by a
semicolon ';', while in different drivers the ',' has been
removed from the '{ }' delimiters.

Finally three devm_clk_get_enabled() have been used to simplify
the devm_clk_get/clk_prepare_enable tuple in the Renesas EMEV2,
Ingenic and MPC drivers.

Refactors
---------
The Nuvoton fixes a potential out of boundary array access. This
is not a bug fix because the issue could never occur due to
hardware not having the properties listed in the array. The
change makes the driver more future proof and, at the same time,
silences code analyzers.

Improvements
------------
The Renesas I2C (riic) driver undergoes several patches improving
the runtime power management handling.

The Intel i801 driver uses a more descriptive adapter's name to
show the presence of the IDF feature.

In the Intel Denverton (ismt) adapter the pending transactions
are killed when irq's can't complete their handling, triggering a
timeout. This could have been considered as a bug fix, but
because, standing to Vasily, it's very sporadic, I preferred
considering the patch rather as an improvement.

New Feature
-----------
The Renesas I2C (riic) driver now supports the fast mode plus.

New support
-----------
Added support for:

- Renesas R9A08G045
- Rockchip RK3576
- KEBA I2C
- Theobroma Systems Mule Multiplexer.

The Keba comes with a new driver, i2c-keba.c.
The Mule is an i2c multiplexer and it also comes with a new
driver, mux/i2c-mux-mule.c.

Core patch
----------
This pull request includes also a patch in the I2C framework, in
i2c-core-base.c where the runtime PM functions have been replaced
in order to allow to be accessed during the device add.

Devicetree
----------
Some cleanups in the devicetree, as well. nVidia and Qualcomm
bindings improve their "if:then:" blocks. While the aspeed
binding loses the "multi-master" property because it was
redundant.

The i2c-sprd binding has been converted to YAML.

Merge remote-tracking branch 'torvalds/master' into perf-tools-next

To pick up fixes from perf-tools/perf-tools, some of which were also in
perf-tools-next but were then indentified as being more appropriate to
go sooner, to fix regressions in v6.11.

Resolve a simple merge conflict in tools/perf/tests/pmu.c where a more
future proof approach to initialize all fields of a struct was used in
perf-tools-next, the one that is going into v6.11 is enough for the
segfault it addressed (using an uninitialized test_pmu.alias field).

Merge tag 'i2c-host-fixes-6.11-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/andi.shyti/linux into i2c/for-current

The Aspeed driver tracks the controller's state (stop, pending,
start, etc.). Previously, when the stop command was sent, the
state was not updated. The fix in this pull request ensures the
driver's state is aligned with the device status.

The Intel SCH driver receives a new look, and among the cleanups,
there is a fix where, due to an oversight, an if/else statement
was missing the else, causing it to move forward instead of
exiting the function in case of an error.

The Qualcomm GENI I2C driver adds the IRQF_NO_AUTOEN flag to the
IRQ setup to prevent unwanted interrupts during probe.

The Xilinx XPS controller fixes TX FIFO handling to avoid missed
NAKs. Another fix ensures the controller is reinitialized when
the bus appears busy.
