The eventfd_signal_mask() helper was introduced for io_uring and similar
to eventfd_signal() it always passed 1 for @n. So don't bother with that
argument at all.

Ever since the eventfd type was introduced back in 2007 in commit
e1ad7468c77d ("signal/timer/event: eventfd core") the eventfd_signal()
function only ever passed 1 as a value for @n. There's no point in
keeping that additional argument.

The single caller of inject_virtual_interrupt() ignores the return value
anyway. This allows us to simplify eventfd_signal() in follow-up

It is hard to find where mapping->private_lock, mapping->private_list and
mapping->private_data are used, due to private_XXX being a relatively
common name for variables and structure members in the kernel. To fit
with other members of struct address_space, rename them all to have an
i_ prefix. Tested with an allmodconfig build.

A race condition exists where a synchronous (noqueue) transfer can be
active during a system suspend. This can cause a null pointer
dereference exception to occur when the system resumes.
Example order of events leading to the exception:
1. spi_sync() calls __spi_transfer_message_noqueue() which sets
ctlr->cur_msg
2. Spi transfer begins via spi_transfer_one_message()
3. System is suspended interrupting the transfer context
4. System is resumed
6. spi_controller_resume() calls spi_start_queue() which resets cur_msg
to NULL
7. Spi transfer context resumes and spi_finalize_current_message() is
called which dereferences cur_msg (which is now NULL)
Wait for synchronous transfers to complete before suspending by
acquiring the bus mutex and setting/checking a suspend flag.

Fix to check the tracepoint event is not valid with $retval.
The commit 08c9306fc2e3 ("tracing/fprobe-event: Assume fprobe is
a return event by $retval") introduced automatic return probe
conversion with $retval. But since tracepoint event does not
support return probe, $retval is not acceptable.
Without this fix, ftracetest, tprobe_syntax_errors.tc fails;
[22] Tracepoint probe event parser error log check [FAIL]
----
# tail 22-tprobe_syntax_errors.tc-log.mRKroL
+ ftrace_errlog_check trace_fprobe t kfree ^$retval dynamic_events
+ printf %s t kfree
+ wc -c
+ pos=8
+ printf %s t kfree ^$retval
+ tr -d ^
+ command=t kfree $retval
+ echo Test command: t kfree $retval
Test command: t kfree $retval
+ echo
----
So 't kfree $retval' should fail (tracepoint doesn't support
return probe) but passed it.

These enums are passed to set/test_bit(). The set/test_bit() functions
take a bit number instead of a shifted value. Passing a shifted value
is a double shift bug like doing BIT(BIT(1)). The double shift bug
doesn't cause a problem here because we are only checking 0 and 1 but
if the value was 5 or above then it can lead to a buffer overflow.

When multiple mounts are to the same share from the same client it was not
possible to determine which section of /proc/fs/cifs/Stats (and DebugData)
correspond to that mount. In some recent examples this turned out to be
a significant problem when trying to analyze performance data - since
there are many cases where unless we know the tree id and session id we
can't figure out which stats (e.g. number of SMB3.1.1 requests by type,
the total time they take, which is slowest, how many fail etc.) apply to
which mount. The only existing loosely related ioctl CIFS_IOC_GET_MNT_INFO
does not return the information needed to uniquely identify which tcon
is which mount although it does return various flags and device info.
Add a cifs.ko ioctl CIFS_IOC_GET_TCON_INFO (0x800ccf0c) to return tid,
session id, tree connect count.

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes
many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by
returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart
from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks.
To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return
void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to
.remove_new(), which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers
are converted, .remove_new() will be renamed to .remove().
Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

On today's platforms the memory savings of putting the remove function
in .exit isn't that relevant any more. It only matters for built-in
drivers and typically saves a few 100k.
The downside is that the driver cannot be unbound at runtime which is
ancient and also slightly complicates testing. Also it requires to mark
the driver struct with __refdata which is needed to suppress a (W=1)
modpost warning:
WARNING: modpost: drivers/video/fbdev/omap2/omapfb/displays/encoder-tpd12s015: section mismatch in reference: tpd_driver+0x4 (section: .data) -> tpd_remove (section: .exit.text)
To simplify matters, move the remove callback to .text and drop
.suppress_bind_attrs = true.
