This is the start of the stable review cycle for the 5.10.193 release. There are 84 patches in this series, all will be posted as a response to this one. If anyone has any issues with these being applied, please let me know.
Responses should be made by Wed, 30 Aug 2023 10:11:30 +0000. Anything received after that time might be too late.
FWIW, commit 619672bf2d04 ("MIPS: Alchemy: fix dbdma2") should be reverted v5.10.y since it doesn't fix anything but breaks the build for affected boards completely.
arch/mips/alchemy/common/dbdma.c: In function 'au1xxx_dbdma_put_source': arch/mips/alchemy/common/dbdma.c:632:14: error: 'dma_default_coherent' undeclared
There is no 'dma_default_coherent' in v5.10.y.
But that was added in 5.10.185, from back in June. What changed to suddenly cause this to fail now?
Nothing. I started to build this configuration and tracked down the problem after the build failure was reported by others. Sorry, I didn't initially realize that this is an old problem.
We could back port 6d4e9a8efe3d59f31367d79e970c2f328da139a4 ("driver core: lift dma_default_coherent into common code") but that won't work too well on 4.14 or 4.19. I believe it would be simpler to adjust the branches with this patch, Manuel does that work?
Please drop this patch from all stable releases. I didn't CC stable when I submitted it, and have no idea why it ended up there anyway. It was intended to fix a problem initially found in 5.18 (I think).
I'm going to revert it now, thanks!
