Under the following conditions:
* after rounding up by 4 the number of bytes to transfer (this is
related to the controller's internal constraints),
* if this (rounded) amount of data is situated beyond the end of the
device,
* and only in NV-DDR mode,
the Arasan NAND controller timeouts.
This currently can happen in a particular helper used when picking
software ECC algorithms. Let's prevent this situation by refusing to use
the NV-DDR interface with software engines.

Add support for the H27UCG8T2ETR-BC MLC NAND. The NAND is used widely
in the NTC CHIP, is an MLC type NAND, and is 8GB in size. Neither
JEDEC nor ONFI detection identifies it correctly, so the ID is added
to the nand_ids.c file. Additionally, per the datasheet this NAND
appears to use the same paired pages scheme as the Toshiba
TC58TEG5DCLTA00 (dist3), so add support for that to enable use in
SLC emulation mode.
Tested on a NTC CHIP the device is able to write to a ubifs formatted
partition, and then have U-Boot (with proposed patches) boot from a
kernel located on that ubifs formatted partition.

Following the introduction of the generic ECC engine infrastructure, it
was necessary to reorganize the code and move the ECC configuration in
the ->attach_chip() hook. Failing to do that properly lead to a first
series of fixes supposed to stabilize the situation. Unfortunately, this
only fixed the use of software ECC engines, preventing any other kind of
engine to be used, including on-die ones.
It is now time to (finally) fix the situation by ensuring that we still
provide a default (eg. software ECC) but will still support different
ECC engines such as on-die ECC engines if properly described in the
device tree.
There are no changes needed on the core side in order to do this, but we
just need to leverage the logic there which allows:
1- a subsystem default (set to Host engines in the raw NAND world)
2- a driver specific default (here set to software ECC engines)
3- any type of engine requested by the user (ie. described in the DT)
As the raw NAND subsystem has not yet been fully converted to the ECC
engine infrastructure, in order to provide a default ECC engine for this
driver we need to set chip->ecc.engine_type *before* calling
nand_scan(). During the initialization step, the core will consider this
entry as the default engine for this driver. This value may of course
be overloaded by the user if the usual DT properties are provided.

This reverts commit 56a8d3fd1f.
Before the introduction of the ECC framework infrastructure, many
drivers used the ->calculate/correct() Hamming helpers directly. The
point of this framework was to avoid this kind of hackish calls and use a
proper and generic API but it is true that in certain cases, drivers
still need to use these helpers in order to do ECC computations on
behalf of their limited hardware.
Right after the introduction of the ECC engine core introduction, it was
spotted that it was not possible to use the shiny rawnand software ECC
helpers so easily because an ECC engine object should have been
allocated and initialized first. While this works well in most cases,
for these drivers just leveraging the power of a single helper in
conjunction with some pretty old and limited hardware, it did not fit.
The idea back then was to declare intermediate helpers which would make
use of the exported software ECC engine bare functions while keeping the
rawnand layer compatibility. As there was already functions with the
rawnand_sw_hamming_ prefix it was decided to declare new local helpers
for this purpose in each driver needing one.
Besides being far from optimal, this design choice was blamed by Linus
when he pulled the "fixes" pull request [1] so that is why now it is
time to clean this mess up.
The implementation of the rawnand_ecc_sw_* helpers has now been enhanced
to support both cases, when the ECC object is instantiated and when it is
not. This way, we can still use the existing and exported rawnand
helpers while avoiding the need for each driver to declare its own
helper, thus this fix from [2] can now be safely reverted.

spotted that it was not possible to use the shiny rawnand software ECC
helpers so easily because an ECC engine object should have been
allocated and initialized first. While this works well in most cases,
for these drivers just leveraging the power of a single helper in
conjunction with some pretty old and limited hardware, it did not fit.
The idea back then was to declare intermediate helpers which would make
use of the exported software ECC engine bare functions while keeping the
rawnand layer compatibility. As there was already functions with the
rawnand_sw_hamming_ prefix it was decided to declare new local helpers
for this purpose in each driver needing one.
Besides being far from optimal, this design choice was blamed by Linus
when he pulled the "fixes" pull request [1] so that is why now it is
time to clean this mess up.
Enhancing the implementation of the rawnand_ecc_sw_* helpers to support
both cases, when the ECC object is instantiated and when it is not is a
quite elegant way to solve this situation. This way, we can still use
the existing and exported rawnand helpers while avoiding the need for
each driver to declare its own helper.
Following this change, most of the fixes sent in [2] can now be safely
reverted. Only the fsmc fix will need to be kept because there is
actually something specific to the driver to do in its ->correct()
helper.

The introduction of the generic ECC engine API lead to a number of
changes in various drivers which broke some of them. Here is a typical
example: I expected the SM_ORDER option to be handled by the Hamming ECC
engine internals. Problem: the fsmc driver does not instantiate (yet) a
real ECC engine object so we had to use a 'bare' ECC helper instead of
the shiny rawnand functions. However, when not intializing this engine
properly and using the bare helpers, we do not get the SM ORDER feature
handled automatically. It looks like this was lost in the process so
let's ensure we use the right SM ORDER now.

ebu_nand_probe() read the value of u32 variable "cs" from the device
firmware description and used it as the index for array ebu_host->cs
that can contain MAX_CS (2) elements at most. That could result in
a buffer overflow and various bad consequences later.
Fix the potential buffer overflow by restricting values of "cs" with
MAX_CS in probe.

- Add missing fields and remove some duplicate fields when printing a
perf_event_attr.
- Fix hybrid config terms list corruption.
- Update kernel header copies, some resulted in new kernel features
being automagically added to 'perf trace' syscall/tracepoint argument
id->string translators.
- Add a file generated during the documentation build to .gitignore.
- Add an option to build without libbfd, as some distros, like Debian
consider its ABI unstable.
- Add support to print a textual representation of IBS raw sample data
in 'perf report'.
- Fix bpf 'perf test' sample mismatch reporting
- Fix passing arguments to stackcollapse report in a 'perf script'
python script.

Pull misc driver fix from Greg KH:
"Here is a single patch for 5.15-rc1, for the lkdtm misc driver.
It resolves a build issue that many people were hitting with your

before -rc1 comes out, to prevent them from having to constantly hit
it as many development trees restart on -rc1, not older -rc releases.
It has NOT been in linux-next, but has passed 0-day testing and looks
'obviously correct' when reviewing it locally :)"
