<title>scsi: libsas: Add gfp_t flags parameter to event notifications</title>

All call-sites of below libsas APIs:

  - sas_alloc_event()
  - sas_notify_port_event()
  - sas_notify_phy_event()

have been converted to use the _gfp()-suffixed version.  Modify the
original APIs above to take a gfp_t flags parameter by default.

For bisectability, call-sites will be modified again to use the original
libsas APIs (while passing gfp_t). The temporary _gfp()-suffixed versions
can then be removed.

<title>scsi: libsas: Introduce a _gfp() variant of event notifiers</title>

sas_alloc_event() uses in_interrupt() to decide which allocation should be
used.

The usage of in_interrupt() in drivers is phased out and Linus clearly
requested that code which changes behaviour depending on context should
either be separated or the context be conveyed in an argument passed by the
caller, which usually knows the context.

The in_interrupt() check is also only partially correct, because it fails
to choose the correct code path when just preemption or interrupts are
disabled. For example, as in the following call chain:

  mvsas/mv_sas.c: mvs_work_queue() [process context]
  spin_lock_irqsave(mvs_info::lock, )
    -&gt; libsas/sas_event.c: sas_notify_phy_event()
      -&gt; sas_alloc_event()
        -&gt; in_interrupt() = false
          -&gt; invalid GFP_KERNEL allocation
    -&gt; libsas/sas_event.c: sas_notify_port_event()
      -&gt; sas_alloc_event()
        -&gt; in_interrupt() = false
          -&gt; invalid GFP_KERNEL allocation

Introduce sas_alloc_event_gfp(), sas_notify_port_event_gfp(), and
sas_notify_phy_event_gfp(), which all behave like the non _gfp() variants
but use a caller-passed GFP mask for allocations.

For bisectability, all callers will be modified first to pass GFP context,
then the non _gfp() libsas API variants will be modified to take a gfp_t by
default.

LLDDs report events to libsas with .notify_port_event and .notify_phy_event
callbacks.

These callbacks are fixed and so there is no reason why the functions
cannot be called directly, so do that.

This neatens the code slightly, makes it more obvious, and reduces function
pointer usage, which is generally a good thing. Downside is that there are
2x more symbol exports.

The gdth driver refers to a SCSI parallel, PCI-only HBA RAID adapter which
was manufactured by the now-defunct ICP Vortex company, later acquired by
Adaptec and superseded by the aacraid series of controllers.  The driver
itself would require a major overhaul before any modifications can be
attempted, but seeing that it's unlikely to have any users left it should
rather be removed completely.

   - add Zlib license as "deprecated" but required because we have code
     with this license in the tree.

   - convert some drivers to have SPDX identifiers that previously
     didn't have them.

  All have been in linux-next for a very long time with no reported
  issues"

All files in this driver directory contain the following notice:

  See LICENSE.qla2xxx for copyright and licensing details.

LICENSE.qla2xxx can be found in Documentation/scsi/. The file contains:

  - A copyright notice

    This copyright notice is redundant as all files contain the same
    copyright notice already

  - A license notice

    You may modify and redistribute the device driver code under the
    GNU General Public License (a copy of which is attached hereto as
    Exhibit A) published by the Free Software Foundation (version 2).

    This can be replaced with the corresponding SPDX license identifier
    (GPL-2.0-only) in the source files which reference this license
    file.

  - The full GPLv2 license text

    A redundant copy of LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0

Remove the notices and add the SPDX license identifier GPL-2.0-only to the
source files.

Finally remove the now redundant LICENSE.qla2xxx file.
