Merge 6.15-rc4 into usb-next
We need the USB fixes in here as well, and this resolves the following merge conflicts that were reported in linux-next: drivers/usb/chipidea/ci_hdrc_imx.c drivers/usb/host/xhci.h Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
