Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Arnd Bergmann 9b174527e7 [media] Add and use IS_REACHABLE macro
In the media drivers, the v4l2 core knows about all submodules
and calls into them from a common function. However this cannot
work if the modules that get called are loadable and the
core is built-in. In that case we get

drivers/built-in.o: In function `set_type':
drivers/media/v4l2-core/tuner-core.c:301: undefined reference to `tea5767_attach'
drivers/media/v4l2-core/tuner-core.c:307: undefined reference to `tea5761_attach'
drivers/media/v4l2-core/tuner-core.c:349: undefined reference to `tda9887_attach'
drivers/media/v4l2-core/tuner-core.c:405: undefined reference to `xc4000_attach'

This was working previously, until the IS_ENABLED() macro was used
to replace the construct like

 #if defined(CONFIG_DVB_CX24110) || (defined(CONFIG_DVB_CX24110_MODULE) && defined(MODULE))

with the difference that the new code no longer checks whether it is being
built as a loadable module itself.

To fix this, this new patch adds an 'IS_REACHABLE' macro, which evaluates
true in exactly the condition that was used previously. The downside
of this is that this trades an obvious link error for a more subtle
runtime failure, but it is clear that the change that introduced the
link error was unintentional and it seems better to revert it for
now. Also, a similar change was originally created by Trent Piepho
and then reverted by teh change to the IS_ENABLED macro.

Ideally Kconfig would be used to avoid the case of a broken dependency,
or the code restructured in a way to turn around the dependency, but either
way would require much larger changes here.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab d44913c1e5 [media] dib8000: export just one symbol
Exporting multiple symbols don't work as it causes compilation
breakages, due to the way dvb_attach() works.

The bug happens when:
        CONFIG_DVB_DIB8000=m
	CONFIG_DVB_USB_DIB0700=y

As a bonus, dib8000 won't be loaded anymore if the device uses
a different frontend, reducing the memory footprint.

Tested with both Pixelview PV-D231 and MyGica S870.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab b9bc7d59b7 [media] dib8000: rename dib8000_attach to dib8000_init
Well, what we call as "foo_attach" is the method that should
be called by the dvb_attach() macro.

It should be noticed that the name "dvb_attach" is really a
bad name and don't express what it does.

dvb_attach() basically does three things, if the frontend is
compiled as a module:
- It lookups for the module that it is known to have the
  given symbol name and requests such module;
- It increments the module usage (anonymously - so lsmod
  doesn't print who loaded the module);
- after loading the module, it runs the function associated
  with the dynamic symbol.

When compiled as builtin, it just calls the function given to it.

As dvb_attach() increments refcount, it can't be (easily)
called more than once for the same module, or the kernel
will deny to remove the module, because refcount will never
be zeroed.

In other words, the function name given to dvb_attach()
should be one single symbol that will always be called
before any other function on that module to be used.

For almost all DVB frontends, there's just one function,
but, on dib8000, there are several exported symbols.

We need to get rid of all those direct calls, because they
cause compilation breakages when bridge is builtin and
frontend is module, we'll need to add a new function that
will be the first one to be called, whatever initialization
is needed.

So, let's rename this function, in order to prepare for
a next patch that will add a new attach() function that
will be the only one exported by this module.

Peter Senna Tschudin 7b34be71db [media] use IS_ENABLED() macro
This patch introduces the use of IS_ENABLED() macro. For example,
replacing:
 #if defined(CONFIG_I2C) || (defined(CONFIG_I2C_MODULE) && defined(MODULE))
with:
 #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_I2C)
All changes made by this patch respect the same replacement pattern.
