  arch_topology: Fix incorrect error check in topology_parse_cpu_capacity() (2025-10-22 08:06:28 +0200)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Driver core fixes for 6.18-rc3

  - In Device::parent(), do not make any assumptions on the device
    context of the parent device.

  - Check visibility before changing ownership of a sysfs attribute
    group.

  - In topology_parse_cpu_capacity(), replace an incorrect usage of
    PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO() with IS_ERR_OR_NULL().

  - In devcoredump, fix a circular locking dependency between
    struct devcd_entry::mutex and kernfs.

  - Do not warn about a pending fw_devlink sync state.
