Qualcomm Arm64 DeviceTree fixes for v6.19

Add missing power-domains to the SC8280XP RPM power-domain and ensure
these are voted for from the remoteproc instances while powering them
up.

Clear a couple of DeviceTree validation warnings in SM8550 and SM8650
USB controller nodes.

Specify the correct display panel on the OnePlus 6.

Correct the UFS clock mapping on Talos, to ensure UFS is properly
clocked.

Add Abel's old emails address to .mailmap.

Linux kernel
============

The Linux kernel is the core of any Linux operating system. It manages hardware,
system resources, and provides the fundamental services for all other software.

Quick Start
-----------

* Report a bug: See Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst
* Get the latest kernel: https://kernel.org
* Build the kernel: See Documentation/admin-guide/quickly-build-trimmed-linux.rst
* Join the community: https://lore.kernel.org/

Essential Documentation
-----------------------

All users should be familiar with:

* Building requirements: Documentation/process/changes.rst
* Code of Conduct: Documentation/process/code-of-conduct.rst
* License: See COPYING

Documentation can be built with make htmldocs or viewed online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
