<content type='text'>
This is another run of the Coccinelle script for converting kmalloc()
family of allocations to kmalloc_obj() via the existing rules in
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci

This catches both the set of kmalloc() uses added since the first
kmalloc_obj() conversions in v7.0 and adds a large group missed in the
first pass due to Coccinelle not interacting well with the cleanup.h
scoped_...() family of macros[1]. I worked around this with spatch's
"--macro-file" argument to a file with all the scoped_...() macros mapped
to Coccinelle's YACFE_ITERATOR[2] as that was the closest viable control
flow indicator I could find.

Build tested allmodconfig on x86, arm64, arm, loongarch, mips, powerpc,
riscv, and s390 with no new warnings.

<id>urn:sha1:d51fc9d4cd6eb18ac82913d83ecf7bd8c85f71ee</id>
<content type='text'>
The way power sequencing works means that a call to pwrseq_power_on()
does not necessarily result in the pwrseq target being powered-on at
that time: it may have already been powered on before. Similarly: a call
to pwrseq_power_off() does not have to result in an actual powering off
of resources: there may still be other users that requested a power-on
before.

We will also introduce the concept of "non-controllable" pwrseq targets
soon which further increases the disconnect between the naming
convention and the actual semantics.

What consumers of pwrseq descriptors actually do is: they *vote* for a
powering on of a given target or retract that vote. These operations
could be called get/put in line with runtime PM but this could become
confusing since we already provide pwrseq_get/put() for a different
purpose. pwrseq_vote_on/off() also have been rejected as unusual in
the tree.

Change the name of the two functions to pwrseq_enable/disable() which
better reflects their purpose and semantics and also mirrors other
enable-counted resources like regulators and clocks. No functional change
intended.

If at any point users need to know *when* the exact power event happens,
we can provide that information in the form of a notifier.

<title>wifi: cfg80211: convert cookie output to input parameter</title>

<id>urn:sha1:914781c72813989b512609a51f8abb68417f722d</id>
<content type='text'>
The remain_on_channel, mgmt_tx, and probe_peer ops previously used
a u64 *cookie output parameter. Now that cfg80211 pre-assigns the
cookie value before invoking drivers, the parameter conveys a value
from caller to driver, not the other way around. Convert it to a
plain u64 input parameter across the ops struct (cfg80211.h),
rdev-ops.h wrappers, nl80211.c/mlme.c call sites, mac80211, and
all driver implementations.

The tx_control_port op is excluded: its cookie pointer is nullable
(passed as NULL when dont_wait_for_ack is set), so the nullable
pointer semantics are still required.

Internal mac80211 helpers ieee80211_start_roc_work() and
ieee80211_attach_ack_skb() still take u64 *cookie because they
assign to the pointee; their callers now pass &amp;cookie to take the
address of the local value parameter.

wil6210's internal wil_p2p_listen() is also updated to take u64
cookie since it is called directly from the remain_on_channel
callback.

Stop overwriting the pre-assigned cookie in wil_p2p_listen(),
wil_cfg80211_mgmt_tx(), and wil_cfg80211_probe_peer().

For remain_on_channel, store the pre-assigned cookie in p2p-&gt;cookie
instead of incrementing it. All cancel and expiry callbacks already
read from p2p-&gt;cookie so they pick up the correct value.

For mgmt_tx, remove the defensive "cookie ? *cookie : 0" guard;
cfg80211 guarantees a non-NULL cookie pointer.

For probe_peer, store the pre-assigned cookie in req-&gt;cookie instead
of the CID value. The CID is still available via req-&gt;cid for STA
lookup in wil_probe_client_handle().

<content type='text'>
Stop generating cookies in ath6kl_remain_on_channel() and
ath6kl_mgmt_tx(). cfg80211 now pre-assigns the cookie before calling
into the driver.

For remain_on_channel, store the pre-assigned cookie in
vif-&gt;last_roc_id. Widen last_roc_id and last_cancel_roc_id from u32
to u64 to hold the full 64-bit cookie value.

For mgmt_tx, store the pre-assigned cookie in wmi-&gt;last_mgmt_tx_cookie
so the firmware TX status event handler can pass the correct cookie to
cfg80211_mgmt_tx_status(). Thread the cookie through the powersave
queue (ath6kl_mgmt_buff) so it is available when the frame is
eventually dequeued and sent.
