USB: serial: return errors from break handling

Start propagating errors to user space when setting the break state
fails.

This will be used by follow-on changes to also report when a driver or
device does not support break control.

USB: serial: Change DbC debug device binding ID

The product ID for "Linux USB GDB Target device" has been
changed. Change the driver binding table accordingly.

This patch should be back-ported to kernels as old as v4.12,
that contain the commit 57fb47279a04 ("usb/serial: Add DBC
debug device support to usb_debug").

USB: serial: Remove redundant license text

Now that the SPDX tag is in all USB files, that identifies the license
in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording
can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

USB: add SPDX identifiers to all remaining files in drivers/usb/

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

Update the drivers/usb/ and include/linux/usb* files with the correct
SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself.
The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used
instead of the full boiler plate text.

This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

USB: serial: rework usb_serial_register/deregister_drivers()

This reworks the usb_serial_register_drivers() and
usb_serial_deregister_drivers() to not need a pointer to a struct
usb_driver anymore. The usb_driver structure is now created dynamically
and registered and unregistered as needed.

This saves lines of code in each usb-serial driver. All in-kernel users
of these functions were also fixed up at this time. The pl2303 driver
was tested that everything worked properly.

Thanks for the idea to do this from Alan Stern.

In addition, starting with the 2.6.37 kernel, the .usb_driver field is
needed for proper autosuspend operation. Without it, attempts to open

# 5a0e3ad6 24-Mar-2010 Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.

2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

USB: serial: usb_debug,usb_generic_serial: implement sysrq and serial break

The usb_debug driver was modified to implement serial break handling
by using a "magic" data packet comprised of the sequence:

0x00 0xff 0x01 0xfe 0x00 0xfe 0x01 0xff

When the tty layer requests a serial break the usb_debug driver sends
the magic packet. On the receiving side the magic packet is thrown
away or a sysrq is activated depending on what kernel .config options
have been set.

The generic serial driver was modified as well as the usb serial
headers to generically implement sysrq processing in the same way the
non usb uart based drivers implement the sysrq handling. This will
allow other usb serial devices to implement sysrq handling as desired.

The new usb serial functions are named similarly and implemented
similarly to the uart functions as follows:

usb_serial_handle_break <-> uart_handle_break
usb_serial_handle_sysrq_char <-> uart_handle_sysrq_char

USB: usb_debug, usb_generic_serial: implement multi urb write

The usb_debug driver, when used as the console, will always fail to
insert the carriage return and new line sequence as well as randomly
drop console output. This is a result of only having the single
write_urb and that the tty layer will have a lock that prevents the
processing of the back to back urb requests.

The solution is to allow more than one urb to be outstanding and have
a slightly deeper transmit queue. The idea and some code is borrowed
from the ftdi_sio usb driver.

The generic usb serial driver was modified so as to allow the classic
method of 1 write urb, or a multi write urb scheme with N allowed
outstanding urbs where N is controlled by max_in_flight_urbs. When
max_in_flight_urbs in a "struct usb_serial_driver" is non zero the
multi write urb scheme will be used.

The size of 4000 was selected for the usb_debug driver so that the
driver lowers possibility of losing the queued console messages during
the kernel startup.

usb_serial: API all change

USB serial likes to use port->tty back pointers for the real work it does and
to do so without any actual locking. Unfortunately when you consider hangup
events, hangup/parallel reopen or even worse hangup followed by parallel close
events the tty->port and port->tty pointers are not guaranteed to be the same
as port->tty is the active tty while tty->port is the port the tty may or
may not still be attached to.

So rework the entire API to pass the tty struct. For console cases we need
to pass both for now. This shows up multiple drivers that immediately crash
with USB console some of which have been fixed in the process.

Longer term we need a proper tty as console abstraction

data to the Debug Port", the real PLX NET20DC device does not handle it right -
data is corrupted on debug port end if serial interface sends >8 byte urbs.
Patch below fixes the issue by limiting tx urb to 8 byte.

USB: serial: remove unneeded number endpoints settings

The usb-serial core no longer checks these fields so remove them from
all of the individual drivers. They will be removed from the usb-serial
core in a patch later in the series.

USB: add driver for the USB debug devices

It's a simple usb-serial driver that just creates a tty device to read
and write from.
