intel_th_output_open() calls bus_find_device_by_devt() which
internally increments the device reference count via get_device(), but
this reference is not properly released in several error paths. When
device driver is unavailable, file operations cannot be obtained, or
the driver's open method fails, the function returns without calling
put_device(), leading to a permanent device reference count leak. This
prevents the device from being properly released and could cause
resource exhaustion over time.

2.17.1
The vdd_mpu regulator maximum voltage was previously limited to 1.2985V,
which prevented the CPU from reaching the 1GHz operating point. This
limitation was put in place because voltage changes were not working
correctly, causing the board to stall when attempting higher frequencies.
Increase the maximum voltage to 1.3515V to allow the full 1GHz OPP to be
used.
Add a TPS65219 PMIC driver fixes that properly implement the LOCK register
handling, to make voltage transitions work reliably.
Changes in v2:
- Setup a custom regmap_bus only for the TPS65214 instead of checking
the chip_id every time reg_write is called.
- Add the am335x-bonegreen-eco devicetree change in the same patch
series.

The L1 substates support requires additional steps to work, namely:
-Proper handling of the CLKREQ# sideband signal. (It is mostly handled by
hardware, but software still needs to set the clkreq fields in the
PCIE_CLIENT_POWER_CON register to match the hardware implementation.)
-Program the frequency of the aux clock into the
DSP_PCIE_PL_AUX_CLK_FREQ_OFF register. (During L1 substates the core_clk
is turned off and the aux_clk is used instead.)
These steps are currently missing from the driver.
For more details, see section '18.6.6.4 L1 Substate' in the RK3658 TRM 1.1
Part 2, or section '11.6.6.4 L1 Substate' in the RK3588 TRM 1.0 Part2.
While this has always been a problem when using e.g.
CONFIG_PCIEASPM_POWER_SUPERSAVE=y, or when modifying
/sys/bus/pci/devices/.../link/l1_2_aspm, the lacking driver support for L1
substates became more apparent after commit f3ac2ff14834 ("PCI/ASPM:
Enable all ClockPM and ASPM states for devicetree platforms"), which
enabled ASPM also for CONFIG_PCIEASPM_DEFAULT=y.
When using e.g. an NVMe drive connected to the PCIe controller, the
problem will be seen as:
nvme nvme0: controller is down; will reset: CSTS=0xffffffff, PCI_STATUS=0x10
nvme nvme0: Does your device have a faulty power saving mode enabled?
nvme nvme0: Try "nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0 pcie_aspm=off pcie_port_pm=off" and report a bug
Thus, prevent advertising L1 Substates support until proper driver support
is added.

2.51.0
After calling device_initialize(), the reference count of the device
is set to 1. If device_add() fails or register_queue_kobjects() fails,
the function returns without calling put_device() to release the
initial reference, causing a memory leak of the device structure.
Similarly, in netdev_unregister_kobject(), after calling device_del(),
there is no call to put_device() to release the initial reference,
leading to a memory leak. Add put_device() in the error paths of
netdev_register_kobject() and after device_del() in
netdev_unregister_kobject() to properly release the device references.

Post a166563e7ec3 ("arm64: mm: support large block mapping when rodata=full"),
__change_memory_common has a real chance of failing due to split failure.
Before that commit, this line was introduced in c55191e96caa, still having
a chance of failing if it needs to allocate pagetable memory in
apply_to_page_range, although that has never been observed to be true.
In general, we should always propagate the return value to the caller.

In hrtimer_interrupt(), interrupts are disabled when acquiring a spinlock,
which subsequently triggers an oops. During the oops call chain,
blocking_notifier_call_chain() invokes _cond_resched, ultimately leading
to a hard lockup.
Call Stack:
hrtimer_interrupt//raw_spin_lock_irqsave
__hrtimer_run_queues
page_fault
do_page_fault
bad_area_nosemaphore
no_context
oops_end
bust_spinlocks
unblank_screen
do_unblank_screen
fbcon_blank
fb_notifier_call_chain
blocking_notifier_call_chain
down_read
_cond_resched
If the system is in an oops state, use down_read_trylock instead of a
blocking lock acquisition. If the trylock fails, skip executing the
notifier callbacks to avoid potential deadlocks or unsafe operations
during the oops handling process.

Subject: [PATCH] rust: kbuild: treat `build_error` and `rustdoc` as kernel
objects
Even if normally `build_error` isn't a kernel object, it should still
be treated as such so that we pass the same flags. Similarly, `rustdoc`
targets are never kernel objects, but we need to treat them as such.
Otherwise, starting with Rust 1.91.0 (released 2025-10-30), `rustc`
will complain about missing sanitizer flags since `-Zsanitizer` is a
target modifier too [1]:
error: mixing `-Zsanitizer` will cause an ABI mismatch in crate `build_error`
--> rust/build_error.rs:3:1
|
3 | //! Build-time error.
| ^
|
= help: the `-Zsanitizer` flag modifies the ABI so Rust crates compiled with different values of this flag cannot be used together safely
= note: unset `-Zsanitizer` in this crate is incompatible with `-Zsanitizer=kernel-address` in dependency `core`
= help: set `-Zsanitizer=kernel-address` in this crate or unset `-Zsanitizer` in `core`
= help: if you are sure this will not cause problems, you may use `-Cunsafe-allow-abi-mismatch=sanitizer` to silence this error
Thus explicitly mark them as kernel objects.
