Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This 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_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object 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 *".

Daniel GomezandGreg Kroah-Hartman 7a96ccc82c driver core: attribute_container: change return type to void
attribute_container_register() has always returned 0 since its
introduction in commit 06ff5a987e ("Add attribute container to generic
device model") in the historical Linux tree [1]. Convert the return type
to void and update all callers.

This removes dead code where callers checked for errors that could never
occur.

Dr. David Alan GilbertandGreg Kroah-Hartman 6a36d828bd driver core: attribute_container: Remove unused functions
I can't find any use of 'attribute_container_add_class_device_adapter'
or 'attribute_container_trigger' in git history.
Their export decls went in 2006:
  commit 1740757e8f ("[PATCH] Driver Core: remove unused exports")

and their docs disappeared in 2016:
  commit 47cb398dd7 ("Docs: sphinxify device-drivers.tmpl")

Remove them.

Gabriel Krisman BertaziandMartin K. Petersen 7c1ef33870 scsi: drivers: base: Support atomic version of attribute_container_device_trigger
attribute_container_device_trigger invokes callbacks that may fail for one
or more classdevs, for instance, the transport_add_class_device callback,
called during transport creation, does memory allocation.  This
information, though, is not propagated to upper layers, and any driver
using the attribute_container_device_trigger API will not know whether any,
some, or all callbacks succeeded.

This patch implements a safe version of this dispatcher, to either succeed
all the callbacks or revert to the original state.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 3282570990 driver core: Remove redundant license text
Now that the SPDX tag is in all driver core files, that identifies the
license in a specific and legally-defined manner.  So the extra GPL text
wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text.  And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

Greg Kroah-Hartman 989d42e85d driver core: add SPDX identifiers to all driver core files
It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Update the driver core files files with the correct SPDX license
identifier based on the license text in the file itself.  The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

Kees CookandLinus Torvalds 02aa2a3763 drivers: avoid format string in dev_set_name
Calling dev_set_name with a single paramter causes it to be handled as a
format string.  Many callers are passing potentially dynamic string
content, so use "%s" in those cases to avoid any potential accidents,
including wrappers like device_create*() and bdi_register().

James Bottomley ebd09ec93c [SCSI] attirbute_container: Initialize sysfs attributes with sysfs_attr_init
All of the SCSI transport classes are suddenly spitting lockdep
warnings.  According to Eric Biderman this is because lockdep needs
static initialisers and the attribute container way of doing things
end up with dynamic sysfs attributes.  Fix this by calling
sysfs_attr_init which sets the lockdep key correctly.
