All of the ID tables based on <linux/mod_devicetable.h> (of_device_id,
pci_device_id, ...) require their arrays to end in an empty sentinel
value. That's usually spelled with an empty initializer entry (e.g.,
"{}"), but also sometimes with explicit 0 entries, field initializers
(e.g., '.id = ""'), or even a macro entry (like PCMCIA_DEVICE_NULL).
Without a sentinel, device-matching code may read out of bounds.
I've found a number of such bugs in driver reviews, and we even
occasionally commit one to the tree. See commit 5751eee5c6 ("i2c:
nomadik: Add missing sentinel to match table") for example.
Teach checkpatch to find these ID tables, and complain if it looks like
there wasn't a sentinel value.
Test output:
$ git format-patch -1 a0d15cc47f --stdout | scripts/checkpatch.pl -

"[PATCH] i2c: nomadik: switch from of_device_is_compatible() to" has style problems, please review.
NOTE: If any of the errors are false positives, please report
them to the maintainer, see CHECKPATCH in MAINTAINERS.
When run across the entire tree (scripts/checkpatch.pl -q --types
MISSING_SENTINEL -f ...), false positives exist:
* where macros are used that hide the table from analysis
(e.g., drivers/gpu/drm/radeon/radeon_drv.c / radeon_PCI_IDS).
There are fewer than 5 of these.
* where such tables are processed correctly via ARRAY_SIZE() (fewer than
5 instances). This is by far not the typical usage of *_device_id
arrays.
* some odd parsing artifacts, where ctx_statement_block() seems to quit
in the middle of a block due to #if/#else/#endif.
Also, not every "struct *_device_id" is in fact a sentinel-requiring
structure, but even with such types, false positives are very rare.

In commit 721255b982 ("genirq: Use a maple tree for interrupt descriptor
management"), the irq_desc_tree was replaced with a sparse_irqs tree using
a maple tree structure. Since the script looked for the irq_desc_tree
symbol which is no longer available, no interrupts would be printed and
the script output would not be useful anymore.
In addition to looking up the correct symbol (sparse_irqs), a new module
(mapletree.py) is added whose mtree_load() implementation is largely
copied after the C version and uses the same variable and intermediate
function names wherever possible to ensure that both the C and Python
version be updated in the future.
This restores the scripts' output to match that of /proc/interrupts.

process_proto_type() is using a complex regex and a "while True" loop to
split a declaration into chunks and, in the end, count brackets. Switch to
using a simpler regex to just do the split directly, and handle each chunk
as it comes. The result is, IMO, easier to understand and reason about.
The old algorithm would occasionally elide the space between function
parameters; see struct rng_alg->generate(), foe example. The only output
difference is to not elide that space, which is more correct.

process_proto_type() and process_proto_function() reinventing the strip()
string method with a whole series of separate regexes; take all that out
and just use strip().
The previous implementation also (in process_proto_type()) removed C++
comments *after* the above dance, leaving trailing whitespace in that case;
now we do the stripping afterward. This results in exactly one output
change: the removal of a spurious space in the definition of
BACKLIGHT_POWER_REDUCED - see
https://docs.kernel.org/gpu/backlight.html#c.backlight_properties.

Introduce file_getattr() and file_setattr() syscalls to manipulate inode
extended attributes. The syscalls takes pair of file descriptor and
pathname. Then it operates on inode opened accroding to openat()
semantics. The struct file_attr is passed to obtain/change extended
attributes.
This is an alternative to FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctl with a difference
that file don't need to be open as we can reference it with a path
instead of fd. By having this we can manipulated inode extended
attributes not only on regular files but also on special ones. This
is not possible with FS_IOC_FSSETXATTR ioctl as with special files
we can not call ioctl() directly on the filesystem inode using fd.
This patch adds two new syscalls which allows userspace to get/set
extended inode attributes on special files by using parent directory
and a path - *at() like syscall.
