Pull driver core and debugfs updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of driver core and debugfs updates for 6.14-rc1.
Included in here is a bunch of driver core, PCI, OF, and platform rust
bindings (all acked by the different subsystem maintainers), hence the
merge conflict with the rust tree, and some driver core api updates to
mark things as const, which will also require some fixups due to new
stuff coming in through other trees in this merge window.
There are also a bunch of debugfs updates from Al, and there is at
least one user that does have a regression with these, but Al is
working on tracking down the fix for it. In my use (and everyone
else's linux-next use), it does not seem like a big issue at the
moment.
Here's a short list of the things in here:
- driver core rust bindings for PCI, platform, OF, and some i/o
functions.
We are almost at the "write a real driver in rust" stage now,
depending on what you want to do.
- misc device rust bindings and a sample driver to show how to use
them
- debugfs cleanups in the fs as well as the users of the fs api for
places where drivers got it wrong or were unnecessarily doing
things in complex ways.
- driver core const work, making more of the api take const * for
different parameters to make the rust bindings easier overall.
- other small fixes and updates
All of these have been in linux-next with all of the aforementioned
merge conflicts, and the one debugfs issue, which looks to be resolved
"soon""

Existing primitive has several problems:
1) calling conventions are clumsy - it returns a dentry reference
that is either identical to its second argument or is an ERR_PTR(-E...);
in both cases no refcount changes happen. Inconvenient for users and
bug-prone; it would be better to have it return 0 on success and -E... on
failure.
2) it allows cross-directory moves; however, no such caller have
ever materialized and considering the way debugfs is used, it's unlikely
to happen in the future. What's more, any such caller would have fun
issues to deal with wrt interplay with recursive removal. It also makes
the calling conventions clumsier...
3) tautological rename fails; the callers have no race-free way
to deal with that.
4) new name must have been formed by the caller; quite a few
callers have it done by sprintf/kasprintf/etc., ending up with considerable
boilerplate.
Proposed replacement: int debugfs_change_name(dentry, fmt, ...). All callers
convert to that easily, and it's simpler internally.
IMO debugfs_rename() should go; if we ever get a real-world use case for
cross-directory moves in debugfs, we can always look into the right way
to handle that.

If a driver implements the change_interface() method, we switch
interface type without taking the interface down, but still will
recreate the debugfs for it since it's a new type. As such, we
should use the ieee80211_debugfs_recreate_netdev() function here
to also recreate the driver's files, if it is indeed from a type
change while up.

The debugfs files for netdevs (sdata) and links are removed
with the wiphy mutex held, which may deadlock. Use the new
wiphy locked debugfs to avoid that.

In MLO, we have a per-link debugfs directory which contains the
per-link files. In case of non-MLO we would like to put the per-link
files in the netdev directory to keep it how it was before MLO.
- Upon interface creation the netdev will be created with the per-link
files in it.
- Upon switching to MLO: delete the entire netdev directory and then
recreate it without the per-link files. Then the per-link directories
with the per-link files in it will be created in ieee80211_link_init()
- Upon switching to non-MLO: delete the entire netdev directory
(including the per-link directories) and recreate it with the per-link
files in it.
Note that this also aligns to always call the vif link debugfs
method for the deflink as promised in the documentation, which
wasn't done before.

Since we're now protecting everything with the wiphy mutex
(and were really using it for almost everything before),
there's no longer any real reason to have a separate wdev
mutex. It may feel better, but really has no value.

It's no longer really needed to ensure that the debugfs
file isn't going away, debugfs handles that. So there's
no point in holding dev_base_lock or RTNL here, but we
should instead hold the wiphy lock since drivers will
be allowed to depend on that. Do that, which requires
splitting the sdata and link macros a bit.

Implement an API function and debugfs file to switch
active links.
Also provide an async version of the API so drivers
can call it in arbitrary contexts, e.g. while in the
authorized callback.

Since links can be added and removed dynamically, we need to
somehow protect the sdata->link[] and vif->link_conf[] array
pointers from disappearing when accessing them without locks.
RCU-ify the pointers to achieve this, which requires quite a
bit of rework.

This reverts commits 6a789ba679 and
2433647bc8.
The virtual time scheduler code has a number of issues:
- queues slowed down by hardware/firmware powersave handling were not properly
handled.
- on ath10k in push-pull mode, tx queues that the driver tries to pull from
were starved, causing excessive latency
- delay between tx enqueue and reported airtime use were causing excessively
bursty tx behavior
The bursty behavior may also be present on the round-robin scheduler, but there
it is much easier to fix without introducing additional regressions

Start making some SMPS related code MLD-aware. This isn't
really done yet, but again cuts down our 'deflink' reliance.
Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
Start reorganizing interface related data structures toward
MLD. The most complex part here is for the keys, since we
have to split the various kinds of GTKs off to the link but
still need to use (for WEP) the other keys as a fallback
even for multicast frames.

We'll use bss_conf for per-link configuration later, so
move out all the non-link-specific data out into a new
struct ieee80211_vif_cfg used in the vif.
Some adjustments were done with the following spatch:
@@
expression sdata;
struct ieee80211_vif *vifp;
identifier var = { assoc, ibss_joined, aid, arp_addr_list, arp_addr_cnt, ssid, ssid_len, s1g, ibss_creator };

Since we always track the BSSID there when we get associated,
these are equivalent, but ifmgd->bssid saves a dereference and
thus makes the code a bit smaller, and more readable.
