napi_enable() may sleep now, take netdev_lock() before rp-&gt;lock.
napi_enable() is hidden inside init_registers().

Note that this patch orders netdev_lock after rp-&gt;task_lock,
to avoid having to take the netdev_lock() around disable path.

<content type='text'>
Wrap napi_enable() / napi_disable() with netdev_lock().
Provide the "already locked" flavor of the API.

iavf needs the usual adjustment. A number of drivers call
napi_enable() under a spin lock, so they have to be modified
to take netdev_lock() first, then spin lock then call
napi_enable_locked().

Protecting napi_enable() implies that napi-&gt;napi_id is protected
by netdev_lock().

<title>net: ethernet: Switch back to struct platform_driver::remove()</title>

<content type='text'>
After commit 0edb555a65d1 ("platform: Make platform_driver::remove()
return void") .remove() is (again) the right callback to implement for
platform drivers.

Convert all platform drivers below drivers/net/ethernet to use
.remove(), with the eventual goal to drop struct
platform_driver::remove_new(). As .remove() and .remove_new() have the
same prototypes, conversion is done by just changing the structure
member name in the driver initializer.

Simon reported that ndo_change_mtu() methods were never
updated to use WRITE_ONCE(dev-&gt;mtu, new_mtu) as hinted
in commit 501a90c94510 ("inet: protect against too small
mtu values.")

We read dev-&gt;mtu without holding RTNL in many places,
with READ_ONCE() annotations.

It is time to take care of ndo_change_mtu() methods
to use corresponding WRITE_ONCE()

<content type='text'>
In a future patch HAS_IOPORT=n will disable inb()/outb() and friends at
compile time. We thus need to add HAS_IOPORT as dependency for
those drivers requiring them. For the DEFXX driver the use of I/O
ports is optional and we only need to fence specific code paths. It also
turns out that with HAS_IOPORT handled explicitly HAMRADIO does not need
the !S390 dependency and successfully builds the bpqether driver.

<content type='text'>
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() is renamed to .remove().

Trivially convert these drivers from always returning zero in the remove
callback to the void returning variant.

<title>net: Explicitly include correct DT includes</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3d40aed862874db14e1dd41fd6f12636dcfdcc3e</id>
<content type='text'>
The DT of_device.h and of_platform.h date back to the separate
of_platform_bus_type before it as merged into the regular platform bus.
As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they
"temporarily" include each other. They also include platform_device.h
and of.h. As a result, there's a pretty much random mix of those include
files used throughout the tree. In order to detangle these headers and
replace the implicit includes with struct declarations, users need to
explicitly include the correct includes.

It is preferred to use typed property access functions (i.e.
of_property_read_&lt;type&gt; functions) rather than low-level
of_get_property/of_find_property functions for reading properties.
Convert reading boolean properties to of_property_read_bool().

We tell driver developers to always pass NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT
as the weight to netif_napi_add(). This may be confusing
to newcomers, drop the weight argument, those who really
need to tweak the weight can use netif_napi_add_weight().
