ASoC: Fixes for v6.18

A moderately large collection of driver specific fixes, plus a few new
quirks and device IDs. The NAU8821 changes are a little large but more
in mechanical ways than in ways that are complex.

file_operations.mmap(). This patchset concentrates upon clearing up

kasan: introduce ARCH_DEFER_KASAN and unify static key across modes

Patch series "kasan: unify kasan_enabled() and remove arch-specific
implementations", v6.

This patch series addresses the fragmentation in KASAN initialization
across architectures by introducing a unified approach that eliminates
duplicate static keys and arch-specific kasan_arch_is_ready()
implementations.

The core issue is that different architectures have inconsistent approaches
to KASAN readiness tracking:
- PowerPC, LoongArch, and UML arch, each implement own kasan_arch_is_ready()
- Only HW_TAGS mode had a unified static key (kasan_flag_enabled)
- Generic and SW_TAGS modes relied on arch-specific solutions
or always-on behavior


This patch (of 2):

Introduce CONFIG_ARCH_DEFER_KASAN to identify architectures [1] that need
to defer KASAN initialization until shadow memory is properly set up, and
unify the static key infrastructure across all KASAN modes.

[1] PowerPC, UML, LoongArch selects ARCH_DEFER_KASAN.

The core issue is that different architectures haveinconsistent approaches
to KASAN readiness tracking:
- PowerPC, LoongArch, and UML arch, each implement own
kasan_arch_is_ready()
- Only HW_TAGS mode had a unified static key (kasan_flag_enabled)
- Generic and SW_TAGS modes relied on arch-specific solutions or always-on
behavior

This patch addresses the fragmentation in KASAN initialization across
architectures by introducing a unified approach that eliminates duplicate
static keys and arch-specific kasan_arch_is_ready() implementations.

Let's replace kasan_arch_is_ready() with existing kasan_enabled() check,
which examines the static key being enabled if arch selects
ARCH_DEFER_KASAN or has HW_TAGS mode support. For other arch,
kasan_enabled() checks the enablement during compile time.

Now KASAN users can use a single kasan_enabled() check everywhere.

um: Support SPARSE_IRQ

Motivation: IRQ KUnit tests are going to require CONFIG_SPARSE_IRQ [1] in
order to:
(a) reliably allocate additional (fake) IRQs and
(b) ensure we can test managed affinity, which is only supported with
SPARSE_IRQ.

It seems that the only thing necessary for ARCH=um is to tell the genirq
core to skip over our preallocated NR_IRQS.

Tested with:

$ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run
[...]
[13:55:58] Testing complete. Ran 676 tests: passed: 646, skipped: 30
[...]

This compares with pre-patch results:

Ran 672 tests: passed: 644, skipped: 28

i.e., we no longer skip tests that 'depend on SPARSE_IRQ', and existing
tests all pass.
