Ian Abbott	df0e68c1e9	comedi: Move the main COMEDI headers Move the main COMEDI driver headers out of "drivers/comedi/" into new directory "include/linux/comedi/". These are "comedidev.h", "comedilib.h", "comedi_pci.h", "comedi_pcmcia.h", and "comedi_usb.h". Additionally, move the user-space API header "comedi.h" into "include/uapi/linux/" and add "WITH Linux-syscall-note" to its SPDX-License-Identifier. Update the "COMEDI DRIVERS" section of the MAINTAINERS file to account for these changes.

Ian Abbott	bb509a6ffe	comedi: Fix memory leak in compat_insnlist() `compat_insnlist()` handles the 32-bit version of the `COMEDI_INSNLIST` ioctl (whenwhen `CONFIG_COMPAT` is enabled). It allocates memory to temporarily hold an array of `struct comedi_insn` converted from the 32-bit version in user space. This memory is only being freed if there is a fault while filling the array, otherwise it is leaked. Add a call to `kfree()` to fix the leak.

comedi: Move the main COMEDI headers

Move the main COMEDI driver headers out of "drivers/comedi/" into new
directory "include/linux/comedi/".  These are "comedidev.h",
"comedilib.h", "comedi_pci.h", "comedi_pcmcia.h", and "comedi_usb.h".
Additionally, move the user-space API header "comedi.h" into
"include/uapi/linux/" and add "WITH Linux-syscall-note" to its
SPDX-License-Identifier.

Update the "COMEDI DRIVERS" section of the MAINTAINERS file to account
for these changes.

comedi: Fix memory leak in compat_insnlist()

`compat_insnlist()` handles the 32-bit version of the `COMEDI_INSNLIST`
ioctl (whenwhen `CONFIG_COMPAT` is enabled).  It allocates memory to
temporarily hold an array of `struct comedi_insn` converted from the
32-bit version in user space.  This memory is only being freed if there
is a fault while filling the array, otherwise it is leaked.

Add a call to `kfree()` to fix the leak.

staging: comedi: move out of staging directory

The comedi code came into the kernel back in 2008, but traces its
lifetime to much much earlier.  It's been polished and buffed and
there's really nothing preventing it from being part of the "real"
portion of the kernel.

So move it to drivers/comedi/ as it belongs there.

Many thanks to the hundreds of developers who did the work to make this
happen.
