Since commit 1fffe7a34c ("script: modpost: emit a warning when the
description is missing"), a module without a MODULE_DESCRIPTION() will
result in a warning with make W=1. The following warnings are being
observed in samples/vfio-mdev:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in samples/vfio-mdev/mtty.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in samples/vfio-mdev/mdpy.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in samples/vfio-mdev/mdpy-fb.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in samples/vfio-mdev/mbochs.o
Add the missing invocations of the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro to these
modules. And in the case of mtty.c, remove the now redundant instance
of the MODULE_INFO() macro.

The memory layout of struct vfio_device_gfx_plane_info is
architecture-dependent due to a u64 field and a struct size that is not
a multiple of 8 bytes:
- On x86_64 the struct size is padded to a multiple of 8 bytes.
- On x32 the struct size is only a multiple of 4 bytes, not 8.
- Other architectures may vary.
Use __aligned_u64 to make memory layout consistent. This reduces the
chance of 32-bit userspace on a 64-bit kernel breakage.
This patch increases the struct size on x32 but this is safe because of
the struct's argsz field. The kernel may grow the struct as long as it
still supports smaller argsz values from userspace (e.g. applications
compiled against older kernel headers).

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.4-rc1.
Once again, a busy development cycle, with lots of changes happening
in the driver core in the quest to be able to move "struct bus" and
"struct class" into read-only memory, a task now complete with these
changes.
This will make the future rust interactions with the driver core more
"provably correct" as well as providing more obvious lifetime rules
for all busses and classes in the kernel.
The changes required for this did touch many individual classes and
busses as many callbacks were changed to take const * parameters
instead. All of these changes have been submitted to the various
subsystem maintainers, giving them plenty of time to review, and most
of them actually did so.
Other than those changes, included in here are a small set of other
things:
- kobject logging improvements
- cacheinfo improvements and updates
- obligatory fw_devlink updates and fixes
- documentation updates
- device property cleanups and const * changes
- firwmare loader dependency fixes.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems"

Many of the mdev drivers use a simple counter for keeping track of the
available instances. Move this code to the core code and store the counter
in the mdev_parent. Implement it using correct locking, fixing mdpy.
Drivers just provide the value in the mdev_driver at registration time
and the core code takes care of maintaining it and exposing the value in
sysfs.
[hch: count instances per-parent instead of per-type, use an atomic_t
to avoid taking mdev_list_lock in the show method]

Reuse the logic in vfio_noiommu_group_alloc to allocate a fake
single-device iommu group for mediated devices by factoring out a common
function, and replacing the noiommu boolean field in struct vfio_group
with an enum to distinguish the three different kinds of groups.
