The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals
that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX
or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to
enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether
things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some
distro packages that are rarely used in practice.
None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support
any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as
'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers
that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that
matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture
upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel
firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2
reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original
architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it
deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as
Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have
dropped support years ago.
While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common
good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the
Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the
fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on
Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in
the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64
could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is
actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case.
There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is
generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64
but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would
like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue
code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64
be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead
of keeping it supported is real.
So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely.
This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5],
which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known
good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow
once the kernel support is removed.

LoongArch uses ACPI and nearly the same as X86/IA64 for 8042. So modify
i8042-acpipnpio.h slightly and enable it for LoongArch in i8042.h. Then
i8042 driver can work well under the ACPI firmware with PNP typed key-
board and mouse configured in DSDT.

Now i8042-x86ia64io.h is shared by X86 and IA64, but it can be shared
by more platforms (such as LoongArch) with ACPI firmware on which PNP
typed keyboard and mouse is configured in DSDT. So rename it to i8042-
acpipnpio.h.

Presumably since nobody has noticed this for the last 12 years, there is
not anyone actually trying to use this driver so we can just remove this
special walnut code and use the generic header so it builds for all
configurations.

A big problem with the current i8042 debugging option is that it outputs
data going to and from the keyboard by default. As a result, many dmesg
logs uploaded by users will unintentionally contain sensitive information
such as their password, as such it's probably a good idea not to output
data coming from the keyboard unless specifically enabled by the user.

This driver adds support for slidebars found on some Lenovo IdeaPad
laptops (the slidebars work with SlideNav/Desktop Navigator under
Windows).
Fixes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16004
Registers 'IdeaPad Slidebar' input device and
/sys/devices/platform/ideapad_slidebar/slidebar_mode

Now works on:
IdeaPad Y550, Y550P.
May work on (testing and adding new models is needed):
Ideapad Y560, Y460, Y450, Y650,
and, probably, some others.
