Subject: [PATCH] PCI: brcmstb: Fix disabling L0s capability
caab002d5069 ("PCI: brcmstb: Disable L0s component of ASPM if requested")
set PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L1 and (optionally) PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L0S in
PCI_EXP_LNKCAP (aka PCIE_RC_CFG_PRIV1_LINK_CAPABILITY in brcmstb).
But instead of using PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L1 and PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L0S
directly, it used PCIE_LINK_STATE_L1 and PCIE_LINK_STATE_L0S, which are
Linux-created values that only coincidentally matched the PCIe spec.
b478e162f227 ("PCI/ASPM: Consolidate link state defines") later changed
them so they no longer matched the PCIe spec, so the bits ended up in the
wrong place in PCI_EXP_LNKCAP.
Use PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L0S to clear L0s support when there's an
'aspm-no-l0s' property. Rely on brcmstb hardware to advertise L0s and/or
L1 support otherwise.

Hi all,
Roland Schwarzkopf reported to the Debian mailing list a problem which
he encountered once updating in Debian from 5.10.244 to 5.10.247. The
report is quoted below and found in
https://lists.debian.org/debian-kernel/2025/12/msg00223.html
Roland did bisect the changes between 5.10.244 to 5.10.247 and found
that the issue is introduced with 1550f3673972 ("net: rtnetlink: add
bulk delete support flag") which is the backport to the 5.10.y series.

Is there soemthing missing?
Roland I think it would be helpful if you can test as well more recent
stable series versions to confirm if the issue is present there as
well or not, which might indicate a 5.10.y specific backporting
problem.

Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/pseries/cmm: adjust BALLOON_MIGRATE when migrating
pages
Let's properly adjust BALLOON_MIGRATE like the other drivers.
Note that the INFLATE/DEFLATE events are triggered from the core when
enqueueing/dequeueing pages.
This was found by code inspection.

Subject: [PATCH] PCI: brcmstb: Fix disabling L0s capability
caab002d5069 ("PCI: brcmstb: Disable L0s component of ASPM if requested")
set PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L1 and (optionally) PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L0S in
PCI_EXP_LNKCAP (aka PCIE_RC_CFG_PRIV1_LINK_CAPABILITY in brcmstb).
But instead of using PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L1 and PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L0S
directly, it used PCIE_LINK_STATE_L1 and PCIE_LINK_STATE_L0S, which are
Linux-created values that only coincidentally matched the PCIe spec.
b478e162f227 ("PCI/ASPM: Consolidate link state defines") later changed
them so they no longer matched the PCIe spec, so the bits ended up in the
wrong place in PCI_EXP_LNKCAP.
Use PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_ASPM_L0S to clear L0s support when there's an
'aspm-no-l0s' property. Rely on brcmstb hardware to advertise L0s and/or
L1 support otherwise.

Subject: [PATCH] gve: defer interrupt enabling until NAPI registration
Currently, interrupts are automatically enabled immediately upon
request. This allows interrupt to fire before the associated NAPI
context is fully initialized and cause failures like below:
[ 0.946369] Call Trace:
[ 0.946369] <IRQ>
[ 0.946369] __napi_poll+0x2a/0x1e0
[ 0.946369] net_rx_action+0x2f9/0x3f0
[ 0.946369] handle_softirqs+0xd6/0x2c0
[ 0.946369] ? handle_edge_irq+0xc1/0x1b0
[ 0.946369] __irq_exit_rcu+0xc3/0xe0
[ 0.946369] common_interrupt+0x81/0xa0
[ 0.946369] </IRQ>
[ 0.946369] <TASK>
[ 0.946369] asm_common_interrupt+0x22/0x40
[ 0.946369] RIP: 0010:pv_native_safe_halt+0xb/0x10
Use the `IRQF_NO_AUTOEN` flag when requesting interrupts to prevent auto
enablement and explicitly enable the interrupt in NAPI initialization
path (and disable it during NAPI teardown).
This ensures that interrupt lifecycle is strictly coupled with
readiness of NAPI context.
