Linus Torvalds 31f020064f Char/Misc fixes/removals for 5.10-rc2
Here's some small fixes for 5.10-rc2 and a big driver removal.
 
 The fixes are for some reported issues in the interconnect and coresight
 drivers, nothing major.
 
 The "big" driver removal is the MIC drivers have been asked to be
 removed as the hardware never shipped and Intel no longer wants to
 maintain something that no one can use.  This is welcomed by many as the
 DMA usage of these drivers was "interesting" and the security people
 were starting to question some issues that were starting to be found in
 the codebase.
 
 Note, one of the subsystems for this driver, the "VOP" code, will
 probably come back in future kernel versions as it was looking to
 potentially solve some PCIe virtualization issues that a number of other
 vendors were wanting to solve.  But as-is, this codebase didn't work for
 anyone else so no actual functionality is being removed.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues.
