wr_ctrl waiters are none interruptible, so should be waken up
with call to wake_up and not to wake_up_interruptible.

This fixes commit:

Pull i2c updates from Wolfram Sang:

 - Peter Rosin did some major rework on the locking of i2c muxes by
   seperating parent-locked muxes and mux-locked muxes.

   This avoids deadlocks/workarounds when the mux itself needs i2c
   commands for muxing.  And as a side-effect, other workarounds in the
   media layer could be eliminated.  Also, Peter stepped up as the i2c
   mux maintainer and will keep an eye on these changes.

 - major updates to the octeon driver

 - add a helper to the core to generate the address+rw_bit octal and
   make drivers use it

 - quite a bunch of driver updates

<title>cxl: Check periodically the coherent platform function's state</title>

<id>urn:sha1:266eab8f32cc43b688c2e9aaab63c2565a3998c2</id>
<content type='text'>
In the PowerVM environment, the PHYP CoherentAccel component manages
the state of the Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface adapter and
virtualizes CAPI resources, handles CAPP, PSL, PSL Slice errors - and
interrupts - and provides a new set of hcalls for the OS APIs to utilize
Accelerator Function Unit (AFU).

During the course of operation, a coherent platform function can
encounter errors. Some possible reason for errors are:
• Hardware recoverable and unrecoverable errors
• Transient and over-threshold correctable errors

PHYP implements its own state model for the coherent platform function.
The state of the AFU is available through a hcall.

The current implementation of the cxl driver, for the PowerVM
environment, checks this state of the AFU only when an action is
requested - open a device, ioctl command, memory map, attach/detach a
process - from an external driver - cxlflash, libcxl. If an error is
detected the cxl driver handles the error according the content of the
Power Architecture Platform Requirements document.

But in case of low-level troubles (or error injection), the PHYP
component may reset the card and change the AFU state. The PHYP
interface doesn't provide any way to be notified when that happens thus
implies that the cxl driver:
• cannot handle immediatly the state change of the AFU.
• cannot notify other drivers (cxlflash, ...)

The purpose of this patch is to wake up the cpu periodically to check
the current state of each AFU and to see if we need to enter an error
recovery path.

<id>urn:sha1:7a0d85d313c2066712e530e668bc02bb741a685c</id>
<content type='text'>
cxl devices typically access memory using an MMU in much the same way as
the CPU, and each context includes a state register much like the MSR in
the CPU. Like the CPU, the state register includes a bit to enable
relocation, which we currently always enable.

In some cases, it may be desirable to allow a device to access memory
using real addresses instead of effective addresses, so this adds a new
API, cxl_set_translation_mode, that can be used to disable relocation
on a given kernel context. This can allow for the creation of a special
privileged context that the device can use if it needs relocation
disabled, and can use regular contexts at times when it needs relocation
enabled.

This interface is only available to users of the kernel API for obvious
reasons, and will never be supported in a virtualised environment.

This will be used by the upcoming cxl support in the mlx5 driver.

<title>cxl: Ensure PSL interrupt is configured for contexts with no AFU IRQs</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3c206fa77aaaac8cd7d4cfcd840c82495b01b288</id>
<content type='text'>
In the cxl kernel API, it is possible to create a context and start it
without allocating any interrupts. Since we assign or allocate the PSL
interrupt when allocating AFU interrupts this will lead to a situation
where we start the context with no means to take any faults.

The user API is not affected as it always goes through the cxl interrupt
allocation code paths and will have the PSL interrupt allocated or
assigned, even if no AFU interrupts were requested.

This checks that at least one interrupt is configured at the time of
attach, and if not it will assign the multiplexed PSL interrupt for
powernv, or allocate a single interrupt for PowerVM.

<content type='text'>
num_of_process is a 16 bit field, theoretically allowing an AFU to
support 16K processes, however the scheduled process area currently has
a maximum size of 1MB, which limits the maximum number of processes to
7704.

Some AFUs may not necessarily care what the limit is and just want to be
able to use the maximum by setting the field to 16K. To allow these to
work, detect this situation and use the maximum size for the SPA.

Downgrade the WARN_ON to a dev_warn.
