Here is the big set of staging driver updates for 5.18-rc1.
Loads of tiny cleanups for almost all staging drivers in here, nothing
major at all. Highlights include:
- remove the ashmem Android driver. It is long-dead and if
there are any legacy userspace applications still using it,
the Android kernel images will maintain it, the community
shouldn't care about it anymore
- wfx wifi driver major cleanups. Should be ready to merge out
of staging soon, and will coordinate with the wifi maintainers
after -rc1 is out
- major cleanups and unwinding of the layers of the r8188eu
driver. It's amazing just how many unneeded layers of
abstraction is in there, just when we think it's done, another
is found...
- lots of tiny coding style cleanups in many other staging
drivers.
There will be merge conflict with a fbtft change and the spi driver
changes in your tree, but it's pretty obvious what to do (the function
shouldn't return anything.)
All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported problems.
