Merge tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-coregrafted

Pull driver core fixes from Danilo Krummrich:

 - Fix kernfs listxattr() not returning security xattr names (e.g.
   SELinux labels) when the kernfs node has no allocated kernfs_iattrs

 - Fix silent truncation of IRQ vector indices in the Rust PCI
   abstractions

 - Don't select OF from DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST; skip the test when OF is
   disabled instead of silently enabling extra kernel functionality

 - Russ Weight is retiring from kernel development; update the Firmware
   Loader sysfs contact to the driver-core mailing list, add a CREDITS
   entry for Firmware Upload, and update MAINTAINERS accordingly

* tag 'driver-core-7.3-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/driver-core/driver-core:
  MAINTAINERS: Remove Russ Weight from Firmware Loader
  CREDITS: Add CREDITS entry for Firmware Upload
  firmware_loader: Change contact for sysfs nodes
  rust: pci: reject IRQ vector indices that do not fit in u32
  kernfs: preserve security xattrs without allocating iattrs
  drivers: base: test: DRIVER_PE_KUNIT_TEST should not select OF

+Frame Buffer device internals
+=============================
+
+This is a first start for some documentation about frame buffer device
+internals.

+
+Structures used by the frame buffer device API
+==============================================
+
+The following structures play a role in the game of frame buffer devices. They
+are defined in <linux/fb.h>.
+
+1. Outside the kernel (user space)
+
+  - struct fb_fix_screeninfo
+
+    Device independent unchangeable information about a frame buffer device and
+    a specific video mode. This can be obtained using the FBIOGET_FSCREENINFO
+    ioctl.
+
+  - struct fb_var_screeninfo
+
+    Device independent changeable information about a frame buffer device and a
+    specific video mode. This can be obtained using the FBIOGET_VSCREENINFO
+    ioctl, and updated with the FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO ioctl. If you want to pan
+    the screen only, you can use the FBIOPAN_DISPLAY ioctl.
+
+  - struct fb_cmap
+
+    Device independent colormap information. You can get and set the colormap
+    using the FBIOGETCMAP and FBIOPUTCMAP ioctls.
+
+
+2. Inside the kernel
+
+  - struct fb_info
+
+    Generic information, API and low level information about a specific frame
+    buffer device instance (slot number, board address, ...).
+
+  - struct `par`
+
+    Device dependent information that uniquely defines the video mode for this
+    particular piece of hardware.
+
+
+Visuals used by the frame buffer device API
+===========================================
+
+
+Monochrome (FB_VISUAL_MONO01 and FB_VISUAL_MONO10)
+--------------------------------------------------
+Each pixel is either black or white.
+
+
+Pseudo color (FB_VISUAL_PSEUDOCOLOR and FB_VISUAL_STATIC_PSEUDOCOLOR)
+---------------------------------------------------------------------
+The whole pixel value is fed through a programmable lookup table that has one
+color (including red, green, and blue intensities) for each possible pixel
+value, and that color is displayed.
+
+
+True color (FB_VISUAL_TRUECOLOR)
+--------------------------------
+The pixel value is broken up into red, green, and blue fields.
+
+
+Direct color (FB_VISUAL_DIRECTCOLOR)
+------------------------------------
+The pixel value is broken up into red, green, and blue fields, each of which
+are looked up in separate red, green, and blue lookup tables.
+
+
+Grayscale displays
+------------------
+Grayscale and static grayscale are special variants of pseudo color and static
+pseudo color, where the red, green and blue components are always equal to
+each other.
