Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argumentThis was done entirely with mindless brute force, using git grep -l '\<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_KERNELargument to just drop that argument.Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightlymore complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, andthe resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separateconversion.Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar typesThis is the result of running the Coccinelle script fromscripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed toavoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), andinstead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or unionobject 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 *".Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>

platform/raspberrypi: Destage VCHIQ interfaceDestage the VCHIQ interface driver to drivers/platform/raspberrypi.There is still the remaining TODO item of improving the documentation,which can be handled post destaging.Secondly, multimedia drivers like codec and ISP that rely on thisinterface need to be upstreamed. And lastly, the drivers that facilitatethe shared memory between VideoCore and Linux, like the vc-sm-cma driverand vc_mem char driver also need to be upstreamed.Signed-off-by: Jai Luthra <jai.luthra@ideasonboard.com>Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251029-vchiq-destage-v3-6-da8d6c83c2c5@ideasonboard.comSigned-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
