Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Updates for timers, timekeeping and drivers:
Core:
- The timer_shutdown[_sync]() infrastructure:
Tearing down timers can be tedious when there are circular
dependencies to other things which need to be torn down. A prime
example is timer and workqueue where the timer schedules work and
the work arms the timer.
What needs to prevented is that pending work which is drained via
destroy_workqueue() does not rearm the previously shutdown timer.
Nothing in that shutdown sequence relies on the timer being
functional.
The conclusion was that the semantics of timer_shutdown_sync()
should be:
- timer is not enqueued
- timer callback is not running
- timer cannot be rearmed
Preventing the rearming of shutdown timers is done by discarding
rearm attempts silently.
A warning for the case that a rearm attempt of a shutdown timer is
detected would not be really helpful because it's entirely unclear
how it should be acted upon. The only way to address such a case is
to add 'if (in_shutdown)' conditionals all over the place. This is
error prone and in most cases of teardown not required all.
- The real fix for the bluetooth HCI teardown based on
timer_shutdown_sync().
A larger scale conversion to timer_shutdown_sync() is work in
progress.
- Consolidation of VDSO time namespace helper functions
- Small fixes for timer and timerqueue
Drivers:
- Prevent integer overflow on the XGene-1 TVAL register which causes
an never ending interrupt storm.
- The usual set of new device tree bindings
- Small fixes and improvements all over the place"

del_timer_sync() does not return the number of times it tried to delete the
timer which rearms itself. It's clearly documented:
The function returns whether it has deactivated a pending timer or not.
This part of the documentation is from 2003 where del_timer_sync() really
returned the number of deletion attempts for unknown reasons. The code
was rewritten in 2005, but the documentation was not updated.

The entire file blames back to the start of git
(minus whitespace from the RST translation and a typo fix):
* there are changelog comments for March 1994 through to Linux 2.5.74
* struct tty_ldisc is two pointers nowadays, so naturally no magic
* GDA_MAGIC is defined but unused, and it's been this way
since start-of-git
* M3_CARD_MAGIC isn't defined, because
commit d56b9b9c464a ("[PATCH] The scheduled removal of some OSS
drivers") removed the entire driver in 2006
* CS_CARD_MAGIC likewise since
commit b5d425c97f7d ("more scheduled OSS driver removal") in 2007
* KMALLOC_MAGIC and VMALLOC_MAGIC were removed in
commit e38e0cfa48ac ("[ALSA] Remove kmalloc wrappers"),
six months after start of git
* SLAB_C_MAGIC has never even appeared in git
(removed in 2.4.0-test3pre6)
magic-number.rst is a low-value historial relic at best and
misleading cruft at worst, so start with cleaning out ones that only
appear therein

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"This was a moderately busy cycle for documentation, but nothing
all that earth-shaking:
- More Chinese translations, and an update to the Italian
translations.
The Japanese, Korean, and traditional Chinese translations
are more-or-less unmaintained at this point, instead.
- Some build-system performance improvements.
- The removal of the archaic submitting-drivers.rst document,
with the movement of what useful material that remained into
other docs.
- Improvements to sphinx-pre-install to, hopefully, give more
useful suggestions.
- A number of build-warning fixes
Plus the usual collection of typo fixes, updates, and more"

During a patch discussion, Linus brought up the option of changing
the C standard version from gnu89 to gnu99, which allows using variable
declaration inside of a for() loop. While the C99, C11 and later standards
introduce many other features, most of these are already available in
gnu89 as GNU extensions as well.
An earlier attempt to do this when gcc-5 started defaulting to
-std=gnu11 failed because at the time that caused warnings about
designated initializers with older compilers. Now that gcc-5.1 is
the minimum compiler version used for building kernels, that is no
longer a concern. Similarly, the behavior of 'inline' functions changes
between gnu89 using gnu_inline behavior and gnu11 using standard c99+
behavior, but this was taken care of by defining 'inline' to include
__attribute__((gnu_inline)) in order to allow building with clang a
while ago.
Nathan Chancellor reported a new -Wdeclaration-after-statement
warning that appears in a system header on arm, this still needs a
workaround.
The differences between gnu99, gnu11, gnu1x and gnu17 are fairly
minimal and mainly impact warnings at the -Wpedantic level that the
kernel never enables. Between these, gnu11 is the newest version
that is supported by all supported compiler versions, though it is
only the default on gcc-5, while all other supported versions of
gcc or clang default to gnu1x/gnu17.

As has been discussed some time ago on ksumitt-discuss@ mailinglist,
the need for trivial tree diminished over time as all the tooling and
processess became much more mature and it's quite natural these days
for trivial patches to flow through subsystem trees anyway, so the
spin-off of a trivial tree doesn't make sense any more, and is not worth
the merge conflicts it might sometimes create.
So remove any mentions of it from kernel documentation for good.

the minimum version to 1.7.
For pdfdocs, sphinx_pre_install says:
note: If you want pdf, you need at least Sphinx 2.4.4.
, and current requirements.txt installs Sphinx 2.4.4.

Change all links from using the lkml redirector to the lore redirector,
as the kernel.org admin recently indicated: we shouldn't be using
lkml.kernel.org anymore because the domain can create confusion, as it
indicates it is only valid for messages sent to the LKML; the convention
has been to use https://lore.kernel.org/r/msgid for this reason.
In this process also change three links from using http to https.

Activating xeCJK in English and Italian-translation documents
results in sub-optimal typesetting with wide-looking apostrophes
and quotation marks.
The xeCJK package provides macros for enabling and disabling its
effect in the middle of a document, namely \makexeCJKactive and
\makexeCJKinactive.
So the goal of this change is to activate xeCJK in the relevant
chapters in translations.
To do this:
o Define custom macros in the preamble depending on the
availability of the "Noto Sans CJK" font so that those
macros can be used regardless of the use of xeCJK package.
o Patch \sphinxtableofcontents so that xeCJK is inactivated
after table of contents.
o Embed those custom macros in each language's index.rst file
as a ".. raw:: latex" construct.
Note: A CJK chapter needs \kerneldocCJKon in front of its chapter
heading, while a non-CJK chapter should have \kerneldocCJKoff
below its chapter heading.
This is to make sure the CJK font is available to CJK chapter's
heading and ending page's footer.
Tested against Sphinx versions 2.4.4 and 4.0.2.

First, it is never checked. Second, use of it as a debugging aid is
at least questionable. With the current tools, I don't think anyone used
this kind of thing for debugging purposes for years.
On the top of that, e.g. serdev does not set this field of tty_ldisc_ops
at all.
So get rid of this legacy.

While the driver is still marked as maintained in MAINTAINERS, Comtrol
does not really care about this ancient driver. They are still
manufacturing serial devices, but those are controlled only by
out-of-tree drivers.
Comtrol didn't answer my pings, so this driver is apparently
unmaintained. Aside from that, the driver was untouched for years, only
whole-tree changes happened during the past years. The driver needs much
more care, so drop it for now. If someone steps up to reintroduce it,
they need to clean it up first.
