The Unisys sub-tree of drivers/staging contains three drivers for the
"Unisys Secure Partition" (s-Par(R)): visorhba, visorinput, visornic.
They have no maintainers, in fact the only one that is listed in
MAINTAINERS has an unreacheable email address. During 2021 and 2022
several patches have been submitted to these drivers but nobody at
Unisys cared of reviewing the changes. Probably, also the
"sparmaintainer" internal list of unisys.com is not anymore read by
interested Unisys' engineers.
Therefore, remove the drivers/staging/unisys directory and delete the
relevant entries in the MAINTAINERS, Kconfig, Makefile files, then
remove also the drivers/visorbus directory which is not anymore needed
(it contained the driver for the virtualized bus for the Unisys s-Par
firmware).

The structures
rtw_ieee80211_hdr
rtw_ieee80211_hdr_3addr
rtw_ieee80211_hdr_3addr_qos
in drivers/staging/r8188eu/include/ieee80211.h just duplicate the
in-kernel structures from include/linux/ieee80211.h.
ieee80211_hdr
ieee80211_hdr_3addr
ieee80211_qos_hdr
Remove the rtw_ prefixed structures and use the in-kernel versions.

mlme_sta_tbl is an array of struct mlme_handler. mlme_handler's num and
str components are not used. The code in mgt_dispatcher uses the subtype
number of the incoming frame to select the array entry for compiling the
repsonse.
We can remove struct mlme_handler and make mlme_sta_tbl an array of
function pointers.

The driver's local GetFrameSubType macro returns both frame type and
subtype.
Use the ieee80211 framework to extract the two fields. This shows more
clearly that both type and subtype are read.
Convert everything to host endianness before we use bit operations.

Remove the loop in rtw_pwr_wakeup that waits while the system is
suspended.
pwrpriv->bInSuspend is set in rtw_suspend and cleared in rtw_resume. These
functions are the .suspend and .resume functions of the struct usb_driver
for r8188eu.
A usb_driver's suspend and resume functions are called when the entire
system goes into suspend or runtime suspend.
All of the code paths for rtw_pwr_wakeup start at ioctl handlers.
We can remove the loop that checks bInSuspend. It's not possible to call
an ioctl while the entire system is suspended.

Clean up the code in rtw_pwr_wakeup that sets pwrpriv->ips_deny_time.
Make ips_deny_time an unsigned long, this type is used by the kernel
functions that process jiffies.
Remove the temporary variable ips_deffer_ms and use
RTW_PWR_STATE_CHK_INTERVAL directly.
There's no need to set ips_deny_time twice, it's sufficient to set it at
the end of rtw_pwr_wakeup.
Use time_before to check if ips_deny_time should be updated.
We can now remove rtw_ms_to_systime, this function is not used any more.

There is a deadlock in rtw_joinbss_event_prehandle(), which is shown below:
(Thread 1) | (Thread 2)
| _set_timer()
rtw_joinbss_event_prehandle()| mod_timer()
spin_lock_bh() //(1) | (wait a time)
... | rtw_join_timeout_handler()
| _rtw_join_timeout_handler()
del_timer_sync() | spin_lock_bh() //(2)
(wait timer to stop) | ...
We hold pmlmepriv->lock in position (1) of thread 1 and
use del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler
also need pmlmepriv->lock in position (2) of thread 2.
As a result, rtw_joinbss_event_prehandle() will block forever.
This patch extracts del_timer_sync() from the protection of
spin_lock_bh(), which could let timer handler to obtain
the needed lock. What`s more, we change spin_lock_bh() to
spin_lock_irq() in _rtw_join_timeout_handler() in order to
prevent deadlock.
