rtl8188eu contains some spelling errors in comment lines as well as in

unclean, which is not something we want in the kernel.
Improve this by fixing typos so they won't catch eyes of future driver
developers anymore.

Staging: rtlwifi: Remove unnecessary 'out of memory' message.
Logging messages that show some type of "out of memory" error
are generally unnecessary as there is a generic message and
a stack dump done by the memory subsystem.
These messages generally increase kernel size without much
added value.
Space between function name and open parentheses '(' is prohibited.
Space is required around most binary operators '=', '==', '+=',
'<', ':', '+', '-'
Space required before '&', '*'

Functions rtl_rfreg_delay() and rtl_bb_delay() are unused within the
driver. Both functions call rtl_addr_delay(), this function is unused
outside of these call sites.The driver (and kernel) code base is cleaner
if unused functions are removed.
staging: ccree: Use platform_get_irq and devm_request_irq
It is recommended to use managed function devm_request_irq(),
which simplifies driver cleanup paths and driver code.
This patch does the following:
(a) replace platform_get_resource(), request_irq() and corresponding
error handling with platform_get_irq() and devm_request_irq().
(b) remove struct resource pointer(res_irq) in struct ssi_drvdata as
it seems redundant.
(c) change type of member irq in struct ssi_drvdata from unsigned int
to int, as return type of platform_get_irq is int and can be used in
error handling.
(d) remove irq_registered variable from driver probe as it seems
redundant.
(e) free_irq is not required any more, devm_request_irq() free's it
on driver detach.
(f) adjust log messages accordingly and remove any blank lines.

handling with devm_ioremap_resource().
(b) remove struct resource pointer(res_mem) in struct ssi_drvdata as it
seems redundant, use struct resource pointer which is defined locally and
adjust return value of platform_get_resource() accordingly.
(c) release_mem_region() and iounmap() are dropped, since devm_ioremap_
resource() releases and unmaps mem region on driver detach.
(d) adjust log messages accordingly and remove any blank lines.

simplifies driver cleanup paths and driver code.
This patch does the following:
(a) replace kzalloc with devm_kzalloc.
(b) drop kfree(), because memory allocated with devm_kzalloc() is
automatically freed on driver detach, otherwise it leads to a double
free.
(c) remove unnecessary blank lines.

As gcc-8 points out, the bit mask check makes no sense here:
drivers/staging/rts5208/sd.c: In function 'ext_sd_send_cmd_get_rsp':
drivers/staging/rts5208/sd.c:4130:25: error: bitwise comparison always evaluates to true [-Werror=tautological-compare]
However, the code is even more bogus, as we have already
checked for the SD_RSP_TYPE_R0 case earlier in the function
and returned success. As seen in the mmc/sd driver core,
SD_RSP_TYPE_R0 means "no response" anyway, so checking for
a particular response would not help either.
This just removes the nonsensical code to get rid of the
warning.

firmware: Restore support for built-in firmware
Commit 5620a0d1aac ("firmware: delete in-kernel firmware") removed the
entire firmware directory. Unfortunately it thereby also removed the
support for built-in firmware.
This restores the ability to build firmware directly into the kernel by
pruning the original Makefile to the necessary minimum. The default for
EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR is now the standard directory /lib/firmware/.
