The periodic pulse event interrupts are used to register the PPS events
into the system, so it is only applicable to PTP_CLK_REQ_PPS request.
However, these interrupts are mistakenly enabled in PTP_CLK_REQ_PEROUT
request, so fix this error.

ptp: safely cleanup when unregistering a PTP clock
The standard rule in the kernel for unregistering user visible devices
is to unpublish the userspace API before doing any shutdown of the
resources necessary for the operation of the device.
PTP has several issues in this area:
1. ptp_clock_unregister() cancells and destroys work while the PTP
chardev is still published, which gives the opportunity for a
precisely timed user API call to cause a driver to attempt to
queue the aux work.
2. PTP pins are not cleaned up - if userspace has enabled PTP pins,
e.g. for extts, drivers are forced to do cleanup before calling
ptp_clock_unregister() to stop events being forwarded into the
PTP layer. E.g mv88e6xxx cancells its internal tai_event_work
to avoid calling into the PTP clock code with a stale ptp_clock
pointer, but a badly timed userspace EXTTS enable will re-schedule
the tai_event_work.
Simplify the process by ensuring that:
1. we take a referene on the PTP struct device to stop the
ptp_clock structure going away underneath us when we call
posix_clock_unregister().
2. call posix_clock_unregister() to remove the /dev/ptp* device.
3. add additional functionality to disable any PTP EXTTS pins and
PPS event generation that have been configured on this device.
This should shutdown all events coming from PTP clock drivers.
4. cancel the delayed aux_work and destroy the kthread.
5. remove the PPS source.
6. drop the reference on the PTP struct device to allow the
ptp_clock structure to be released.
This is difficult for me to test beyond build testing - on the
Clearfog platform with Marvell PHY PTP, the ethernet PHY is the
primary connectivity, so removing the PHY driver for an in-use
network interface isn't possible.
On the ZII rev B platform, where the DSA switches have the TAI
hardware and where root NFS is used, removal of the DSA switch
module somehow forces the FEC interface _not_ connected to the DSA
switch to lose link, causing the machine to become unresponsive
as its root filesystem vanishes.

The ordering of ptp_clock_unregister() is not ideal, as the chardev
remains published while state is being torn down, which means userspace
can race with the kernel teardown. There is also no cleanup of enabled
pin settings nor of the internal PPS event, which means enabled events
can still forward into the core, dereferencing a free'd pointer.
Rework the ordering of cleanup in ptp_clock_unregister() so that we
unpublish the posix clock (and user chardev), disable any pins that
have EXTTS events enabled, disable the PPS event, and then clean up
the aux work and PPS source.
This avoids potential use-after-free and races in PTP clock driver
teardown.

net/mlx5: Refactor devcom and add net namespace support
This series by Shay improves the mlx5 devcom infrastructure by
introducing a structured matching attribute interface, relocating
certain devcom registration flows to more appropriate locations, and
adding net namespace awareness to the devcom framework and its users.
Patch 1: Refactors the devcom interface to accept a match attribute
structure instead of raw keys, enabling future extensibility such as
namespace-based matching.
Patch 2: Moves the devcom registration for HCA components from the core
code to the LAG layer to better reflect their logical ownership and
lifecycle.
Patch 3: Adds net namespace support to the devcom framework, enabling
components to operate in isolated namespaces.
Patch 4: Updates the LAG layer to make use of the new namespace-aware
devcom interface and improves reload behavior in LAG mode.

Update the LAG implementation to support net namespace isolation.
Recent devcom changes added namespace-aware client matching. Align LAG
with this model so that hardware LAG forms only between mlx5 interfaces
that share the same network namespace. This avoids cross-namespace
interference and matches user expectations when devices are placed in
different netns.
Make LAG netns-aware by storing the device’s namespace in mlx5_lag and
registering the devcom client with that namespace. As a result, only
peers in the same netns are eligible to form a LAG.
Adjust reload handling so LAG teardown/re-evaluation happens in the
correct namespace context. Remove the blanket restriction that prevented
devlink reload when LAG was active. Remove the reload restriction here
allowing devlink reload in LAG mode is part of delivering complete netns
aware LAG support:
With per-netns devcom registration, reload no longer risks
cross-namespace coupling. The devcom client is torn down and
re-registered in the device’s current netns, and LAG is re-evaluated
within that scope. The change is trivial and self-contained, and keeping
it in this patch avoids splitting a feature that is functionally one
unit.
Only devices in same netns can form hardware LAG.
devlink reload no longer fails just because LAG is active.
LAG is torn down/re-created as needed within the correct namespace.
No change for setups that don’t use namespaces.

Extend the devcom framework to support namespace-aware components.
The existing devcom matching logic was based solely on numeric keys,
limiting its use to the global (init_net) scope or requiring clients to
ignore namespaces altogether, both of which are incorrect in
multi-namespace environments.
This patch introduces namespace support by allowing devcom clients to
provide a namespace match attribute. The devcom pairing mechanism is
updated to compare the namespace, enabling proper isolation and
interaction of components across different net namespaces.
With this change, components that require namespace aware pairing, such
as SD groups or LAG, can now work correctly in multi-namespace
scenarios. In particular, this opens the way to support hardware LAG
within a net namespace.

If an error occurs during mv88e6xxx_setup() and the PTP clock has been
registered, the clock will not be unregistered as mv88e6xxx_ptp_free()
will not be called. mv88e6xxx_hwtstamp_free() also is not called.
As mv88e6xxx_ptp_free() can cope with being called without a successful
call to mv88e6xxx_ptp_setup(), and mv88e6xxx_hwtstamp_free() is empty,
add both these *_free() calls to the error cleanup paths in
mv88e6xxx_setup().
Moreover, mv88e6xxx_teardown() should teardown setup done in
mv88e6xxx_setup() - see dsa_switch_setup(). However, instead *_free()
are called from mv88e6xxx_remove() function that is only called when a
device is unbound, which omits cleanup should a failure occur later in
dsa_switch_setup(). Move the *_free() calls from mv88e6xxx_remove() to
mv88e6xxx_teardown().
Note that mv88e6xxx_ptp_setup() must be called holding the reg_lock,
but mv88e6xxx_ptp_free() must never be. This is especially true after
commit "ptp: rework ptp_clock_unregister() to disable events". This
patch does not change this, but adds a comment to that effect.

In nested arrays don't require that the intermediate attribute
type should be a valid attribute type, it might just be zero
or an incrementing index, it is often not even used.
See include/net/netlink.h about NLA_NESTED_ARRAY:
> The difference to NLA_NESTED is the structure:
> NLA_NESTED has the nested attributes directly inside
> while an array has the nested attributes at another
> level down and the attribute types directly in the
> nesting don't matter.
Example based on include/uapi/linux/wireguard.h:
> WGDEVICE_A_PEERS: NLA_NESTED
> 0: NLA_NESTED
> WGPEER_A_PUBLIC_KEY: NLA_EXACT_LEN, len WG_KEY_LEN
> [..]
> 0: NLA_NESTED
> ...
> ...
Previous the check required that the nested type was valid
in the parent attribute set, which in this case resolves to
WGDEVICE_A_UNSPEC, which is YNL_PT_REJECT, and it took the
early exit and returned YNL_PARSE_CB_ERROR.
This patch renames the old nl_attr_validate() to
__nl_attr_validate(), and creates a new inline function
nl_attr_validate() to mimic the old one.
The new __nl_attr_validate() takes the attribute type as an
argument, so we can use it to validate attributes of a
nested attribute, in the context of the parents attribute
type, which in the above case is generated as:
[WGDEVICE_A_PEERS] = {
.name = "peers",
.type = YNL_PT_NEST,
.nest = &wireguard_wgpeer_nest,
},
__nl_attr_validate() only checks if the attribute length
is plausible for a given attribute type, so the .nest in
the above example is not used.
As the new inline function needs to be defined after
ynl_attr_type(), then the definitions are moved down,
so we avoid a forward declaration of ynl_attr_type().
Some other examples are NL80211_BAND_ATTR_FREQS (nest) and
NL80211_ATTR_SUPPORTED_COMMANDS (u32) both in nl80211-user.c

parg.rsp_policy = &nlctrl_op_attrs_nest;
ynl_attr_for_each_nested(attr, attr_ops) {

}
}
return YNL_PARSE_CB_OK;
}
It is clear that due to the sequential nature of code execution, when
n_ops (initially zero) is incremented, attr_ops is also assigned from
the value of "attr" (the current iterator).
But some compilers, like gcc version 12.2.0 (Debian 12.2.0-14+deb12u1)
as distributed by Debian Bookworm, seem to be not sophisticated enough
to see this, and fail to compile (warnings treated as errors):

It is a pity that we have to do this, but I see no other way than to
suppress the false positive by appeasing the compiler and initializing
the "*attr_{aspec.c_name}" variable with a bogus value (NULL). This will
never be used - at runtime it will always be overwritten when
"n_{struct[anest].c_name}" is non-zero.
