Without this patch, firmware will not run properly on rtl8821ae, and it
causes bad user experience. For example, bad connection performance with
low rate, higher power consumption, and so on.
rtl8821ae uses two kinds of firmwares for normal and WoWlan cases, and
each firmware has firmware data buffer and size individually. Original
code always overwrite size of normal firmware rtlpriv->rtlhal.fwsize, and
this mismatch causes firmware checksum error, then firmware can't start.
In this situation, driver gives message "Firmware is not ready to run!".

In the case of Station connects to AP with narrower bandwidth at beginning.
And later the AP changes the bandwidth to winder bandwidth, the AP will
beacon with wider bandwidth IE, eg VHT20->VHT40->VHT80 or VHT40->VHT80.
Since the supported BANDWIDTH will be limited by the PHYMODE, so while
Station receives the bandwidth change request, it will also need to
reconfigure the PHYMODE setting to firmware instead of just configuring
the BANDWIDTH info, otherwise it'll trigger a firmware crash with
non-support bandwidth.
The issue was observed in WLAN.RM.4.4.1-00051-QCARMSWP-1, QCA6174 with
below scenario:
AP xxx changed bandwidth, new config is 5200 MHz, width 2 (5190/0 MHz)
disconnect from AP xxx for new auth to yyy
RX ReassocResp from xxx (capab=0x1111 status=0 aid=102)

....
AP xxx changed bandwidth, new config is 5200 MHz, width 2 (5190/0 MHz)
AP xxx changed bandwidth, new config is 5200 MHz, width 3 (5210/0 MHz)

Race condition is observed during rmmod of mwifiex_usb:
1. The rmmod thread will call mwifiex_usb_disconnect(), download
SHUTDOWN command and do wait_event_interruptible_timeout(),
waiting for response.
2. The main thread will handle the response and will do a
wake_up_interruptible(), unblocking rmmod thread.
3. On getting unblocked, rmmod thread will make rx_cmd.urb = NULL in
mwifiex_usb_free().
4. The main thread will try to resubmit rx_cmd.urb in
mwifiex_usb_submit_rx_urb(), which is NULL.
To fix this, move mwifiex_usb_free() from mwifiex_usb_disconnect
to mwifiex_unregister_dev(). Function mwifiex_unregister_dev() is
called after flushing the command and RX work queues.

This patch ensures all delayed works done before entering PS to satisfy
our expectation, so use cancel_delayed_work_sync() instead. An exception
is delayed work ips_nic_off_wq because running task may be itself, so add
a parameter ips_wq to deinit function to handle this case.

vhost: fix info leak due to uninitialized memory
virtio_ring: switch to dma_XX barriers for rpmsg
The old HOWTO was removed a long time ago. The flat table
version is not metioned elsewhere, so just get rid of the
text.

This file doesn't exist anymore:
Documentation/cpu-freq/user-guide.txt
As the ABI already points to Documentation/cpu-freq, just
remove the broken link and the associated text.

The specified locations are not right. Fix the wildcard logic
to point to the correct directories.
Without that, get-maintainer won't get things right:
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-git-fallback --no-r --no-n --no-l -f Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/cpu-enable-method/nuvoton,npcm750-smp
robh+dt@kernel.org (maintainer:OPEN FIRMWARE AND FLATTENED DEVICE TREE BINDINGS)
mark.rutland@arm.com (maintainer:OPEN FIRMWARE AND FLATTENED DEVICE TREE BINDINGS)
After the patch, it will properly point to NPCM arch maintainers:
$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-git-fallback --no-r --no-n --no-l -f Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/cpu-enable-method/nuvoton,npcm750-smp

The alsa parameters file was renamed to alsa-configuration.rst.
With regards to OSS, it got retired as a hole by at changeset
727dede0ba ("sound: Retire OSS"). So, it doesn't make sense
to keep mentioning it at kernel-parameters.txt.

Commit 9ce33e4653 ("neighbour: support for NTF_EXT_LEARNED flag")
added support for NTF_EXT_LEARNED for neighbour entries.
NTF_EXT_LEARNED entries are neigh entries managed by control
plane (eg: Ethernet VPN implementation in FRR routing suite).
Periodic gc already excludes these entries. This patch extends
it to forced gc which the earlier patch missed.
