I2C gains dynamic timeouts, LED triggers learn hardware offload

Linus pulled the bulk of the 7.4 subsystem trees overnight, and the two changes with downstream consequences are an I2C core that sizes transfer timeouts dynamically and an LED core that can now report when a trigger has been handed off to hardware.

The I2C core now carries a dynamic transfer timeout helper, already consumed by qcom-geni, and the ACPI path fixes an adapter reference leak when creating I2C clients. The same pull brings in the Rust I2C work and an imx change for direct mode with reversed addresses.

The LED core adds led_trigger_notify_hw_control_changed() so drivers can tell the core when control moved to hardware on its own, plus an hw_offloaded() trigger callback surfaced as the trigger_may_offload_to_hw sysfs attribute. The netdev trigger is the first implementer of the callback.

ata_generic now refuses to bind to non-IDE devices, and pata_parport gets fixes for a use-after-free and a parport attach bug. Niklas Cassel's tree also adds the pata_cswarp driver for the Amiga CS-Lab Warp card and switches ahci_da850 to DEFINE_SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS().
Measure network speed with Omarchy's own service basecamp/omarchy
The old test pulled fast.com endpoints with a hard-coded token and read the interface's entire byte counter in one-second samples, so unrelated machine traffic landed in the result and leftover bash and curl workers could outlive the panel. The launcher now replaces itself with Omarchy's own omarchy-speedtest client at /usr/lib/omarchy/speedtest and passes the panel PID so the process exits wit...
Merge tag 'hwmon-for-v7.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/groeck/linux-staging torvalds/linux
Guenter Roeck's tree lands new hwmon drivers for the Axiado AX3000/AX3005 fan and TSADC, the Minisforum UM780 XTX EC, HONOR FMI-XX, and a batch of pmbus parts including MAX20826, MAX20855B and the Infineon TDA38740/TDA38725.
