The following build warning highlights some unused code:
arch/x86/platform/olpc/olpc_dt.c: In function ‘olpc_dt_compatible_match’:
arch/x86/platform/olpc/olpc_dt.c:222:12: warning: variable ‘len’ set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
The compiler is right, the local variable 'len' is set but never used,
so remove it.

Before SLUB initialization, various subsystems used memblock_alloc to
allocate memory. In most cases, when memory allocation fails, an
immediate panic is required. To simplify this behavior and reduce
repetitive checks, introduce `memblock_alloc_or_panic`. This function
ensures that memory allocation failures result in a panic automatically,
improving code readability and consistency across subsystems that require
this behavior.

There are two functions in the olpc platform that have no prototype:
arch/x86/platform/olpc/olpc_dt.c:237:13: error: no previous prototype for 'olpc_dt_fixup' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
arch/x86/platform/olpc/olpc-xo1-pm.c:73:26: error: no previous prototype for 'xo1_do_sleep' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
The first one should just be marked 'static' as there are no other
callers, while the second one is called from assembler and is
just a false-positive warning that can be silenced by adding a
prototype.

Pull x86 platform driver updates from Andy Shevchenko:
"Gathered a bunch of x86 platform driver changes. It's rather big,
since includes two big refactors and completely new driver:
- ASUS WMI driver got a big refactoring in order to support the TUF
Gaming laptops. Besides that, the regression with backlight being
permanently off on various EeePC laptops has been fixed.
- Accelerometer on HP ProBook 450 G0 shows wrong measurements due to
X axis being inverted. This has been fixed.
- Intel PMC core driver has been extended to be ACPI enumerated if
the DSDT provides device with _HID "INT33A1". This allows to
convert the driver to be pure platform and support new hardware
purely based on ACPI DSDT.
- From now on the Intel Speed Select Technology is supported thru a
corresponding driver. This driver provides an access to the
features of the ISST, such as Performance Profile, Core Power, Base
frequency and Turbo Frequency.
- Mellanox platform drivers has been refactored and now extended to
support more systems, including new coming ones.
- The OLPC XO-1.75 platform is now supported.
- CB4063 Beckhoff Automation board is using PMC clocks, provided via
pmc_atom driver, for ethernet controllers in a way that they can't
be managed by the clock driver. The quirk has been extended to
cover this case.
- Touchscreen on Chuwi Hi10 Plus tablet has been enabled. Meanwhile
the information of Chuwi Hi10 Air has been fixed to cover more
models based on the same platform.
- Xiaomi notebooks have WMI interface enabled. Thus, the driver to
support it has been provided. It required some extension of the
generic WMI library, which allows to propagate opaque context to
the ->probe() of the individual drivers.
This release includes debugfs clean up from Greg KH for several
drivers that drop return code check and make debugfs absence or
failure non-fatal.
Also miscellaneous fixes here and there, mostly for Acer WMI and
various Intel drivers"

Previously olpc_dt_fixup() used the presence of the battery node's

The DT core will probe the DT by default now, so the OLPC platform code
calling of_platform_bus_probe() is not necessary. The algorithm for what
nodes are probed is a little different in how compatible is handled, but
since OLPC uses compatible strings for matching it is not affected by
this difference.
Also, only the battery node located at the root level gets a device
created as the dcon is a PCI device and the RTC device is created in
olpc-xo1-rtc.c.

When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment
is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.
Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can
come as a surprise. Not that such an alignment would be wrong even
when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of
clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise.
Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter
explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment
in the memblock internal allocation functions.
For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g. like
iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with
Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where
appropriate.
The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below:

aligned memory. When the align parameter of memblock_alloc() is 0, the

In response to new device tree code in the kernel, OLPC will start
using it for probing of certain devices. However, some firmware fixes
are needed to put the devicetree into a usable state.
Retain compatibility with old firmware by fixing up the device tree
at boot-time if it does not contain the new nodes/properties that
we need for probing. This is the same approach taken on PPC platforms.

Calling alloc_bootmem() for tiny chunks of memory over and over is really
slow; on an XO-1, it caused the time between when the kernel started
booting and when the display came alive (post-lxfb probe) to increase
to 44s. This patch optimizes the prom_early_alloc function by
calling alloc_bootmem for 4k-sized blocks of memory, and handing out
chunks of that to callers. With this patch, the time between kernel load
and display initialization decreased to 23s. If there's a better way to
do this early in the boot process, please let me know.
(Note: increasing the chunk size to 16k didn't noticably affect boot time,
and wasted 9k.)

v4: address some minor style issues pointed out by Grant, and explicitly cast
negative phandle checks to s32.
v3: rename olpc_prom to olpc_dt
- rework Kconfig entries
- drop devtree build hook from proc, instead adding a call to x86's
paging_init (similarly to how sparc64 does it)
- switch allocation from using slab to alloc_bootmem. this allows
the DT to be built earlier during boot (during setup_arch); the
downside is that there are some 1200 bootmem reservations that are
done during boot. Not ideal..
- add a helper olpc_ofw_is_installed function to test for the
existence and successful detection of OLPC's OFW.
