Ok, I will add above two blank lines.

I see some drivers are including this header before linux/* and some are using
after linux/*.

I see some drivers are maintaining the configuration list in the driver file, if
the configuration is specific to the driver.
We can move this to generic header if it is used by others as well.
Ok, will wait for Linus to comment.

Xilinx low level secure firmware error codes are different from Linux error codes.
Secure firmware maintains list of error codes (positive values other than zero).
Hence we return -EIO, if the return value from firmware is non-zero.

Ok, I will update.

Ok, got it.
Driver is developed on top of the older kernel (<=5.4) and we see this warning at that
time and fixed by splitting into two lines.
Yes, with the latest kernel I am not seeing the warning by keeping it in one
line, I will update this.

Ok, I will update this.

I will update this.
