Yes. But then you waste time on the masking, but particularly if it
then causes silly extra overhead just to get the mas

On some platforms, for example i.MX93, there is only one
audio PLL source, so some sample rate can't be supported.
If the PLL source is used for 8kHz series rates, then 11kHz
series rates can't be supported.
So add constraints according to the frequency of available
clock sources, then alsa-lib wi

Isn't the callback required when using the large ROX page?
Rename devdata_mutex to devdata_spinlock to accurately reflect its
implementation as a spinlock.

The hvc_instantiate() is an early console discovery mechanism, it is
usually called before allocating hvc terminal devices. In fact, if
we check hvc_riscv_sbi's hvc_instantiate() return value, we'll find
that it's -1. So the calling hvc_instantiate() is too late.
We can remove the hvc_instantiate(

Hi,
origin of this question was the following patch series from Arnd Bergmann
[PATCH 00/10] Remove obsolete and orphaned wifi drivers
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-staging/20231023131953.2876682-1-a...@kernel.org/
Here the remaining files that use iw_handler_def:
drivers/net/ethernet/toshiba/ps3
Since SLOB was removed and since
commit 6c6c47b063b5 ("mm, slab: call kvfree_rcu_barrier() from
kmem_cache_destroy()"),
it is not necessary to use call_rcu when the callback only performs
kmem_cache_free. Use kfree_rcu() directly.
The changes were made using Coccinelle.

The maple platform was added in 2004 [1], to support the "Maple" 970FX
evaluation board.
It was later used for IBM JS20/JS21 machines, as well as the Bimini
machine, aka "Yellow Dog Powerstation".
Sadly all those machines have passed into memory, and there's been no
evidence for years that anyone
