From: Hongyan Xia <hongyan.xia@transsion.com>

__cfs_bandwidth_used uses struct static_key directly which is
deprecated. Fix.

sk_dynamic_* uses static_key_{enable/disable}(), which aren't really
deprecated, but take the opportunity to move to the new static_branch_*
APIs to be consistent.

No functional change.

Signed-off-by: Hongyan Xia <hongyan.xia@transsion.com>

Changed in RESEND:
- Separate the original series into individual patches. They aren't easy
  to review as a series.
- Move sk_dynamic_* to the new API as well.

Your emails are encoded in a Microsoft special quoted-printable that my

Hmm, this patch was sent through the normal git format-patch and 
send-email flow, which looks okay on my end and via lore. Do you have 
more details so that I can debug and avoid triggering future unhappiness 
in your scripts?

I think I fixed the script. But what the thing did was encode '\n' as
=0A=. This is two tokens: "=0A" for the '\n' and then "=$" for a
continuation line.

It does this for every line, including the last line. Marking the last
line as having a continuation resulted in no output, it would just eat
the whole message.

Marking the last line as having a continuation is well, bonkers. But my
script should now be able to deal with it.  Still, pretty idiotic
behaviour on whoever mangled that.

I see it now. I sent this patch again to myself and downloaded the mbox. 
No such weird tokens in the original patch but they appear in the mbox I 
received.

A quick search suggests this is a known issue, done during email transit 
by Microsoft. This is too dumb to be true and I am shocked. Thanks a 
million for fixing it on your end.

A bit of context on why it is deprecated would help.

Mark had a series to remove a few of them completely. IIRC only lazy
check will remain.

Also, doc doesn't about mention about static_branch_enable vs static_key_enable.
is static_key_enable also deprecated.

We will still have two left.

Yeah, I have those pending. I'll smash everything together and see where
the pieces fall post -rc1.

Sure. Will add some context in the next rev.

I see. These two do conflict. Would be nice if Mark's patch gets merged 
first, then it makes this diff smaller.

Right, like mentioned in the commit message, this change here is a 
nice-to-have, not really deprecation. The trend is to move from untyped 
static_key_* variants to typed static_branch_* ones, so I took the 
opportunity to fix it.

That has been sent, at

That touches all archs and may need review from Xen folks, so I split it 
into a separate patch.
