Building kernels before linux-4.7 with gcc-8 results in many build failures
when gcc triggers a check that was meant to catch broken compilers:

/tmp/ccCGMQmS.s:648: Error: .err encountered

According to the discussion in the gcc bugzilla, a local "register
asm()" variable is still supposed to be the correct way to force an
inline assembly to use a particular register, but marking it 'const'
lets the compiler do optimizations that break that, i.e the compiler is
free to treat the variable as either 'const' or 'register' in that case.

Upstream commit 9f73bd8bb445 ("ARM: uaccess: remove put_user() code
duplication") fixed this problem in linux-4.8 as part of a larger change,
but seems a little too big to be backported to 4.4.

Let's take the simplest fix and change only the one broken line in the
same way as newer kernels.

This takes a much simpler approach and just disables the warning across the

commit 83997997252f5d3fc7f04abc24a89600c2b504ab upstream.

RX overflow interrupt (RXOFLW) is disabled even though xcan_interrupt()
processes it. This means that an RX overflow interrupt will only be
processed when another interrupt gets asserted (e.g. for RX/TX).

Fix that by enabling the RXOFLW interrupt.

xcan_interrupt() clears ERROR|RXOFLV|BSOFF|ARBLST interrupts if any of

could have been asserted between interrupt status read and interrupt
clear, therefore clearing them without handling them.

can: xilinx_can: keep only 1-2 frames in TX FIFO to fix TX accounting

e5df9264649e13f0b6c2da9ce089a8ac41ef5121

commit 620050d9c2be15c47017ba95efe59e0832e99a56 upstream.

The xilinx_can driver assumes that the TXOK interrupt only clears after
it has been acknowledged as many times as there have been successfully
sent frames.

However, the documentation does not mention such behavior, instead
saying just that the interrupt is cleared when the clear bit is set.

Similarly, testing seems to also suggest that it is immediately cleared
regardless of the amount of frames having been sent. Performing some
heavy TX load and then going back to idle has the tx_head drifting
further away from tx_tail over time, steadily reducing the amount of
frames the driver keeps in the TX FIFO (but not to zero, as the TXOK
interrupt always frees up space for 1 frame from the driver's
perspective, so frames continue to be sent) and delaying the local echo
frames.

The TX FIFO tracking is also otherwise buggy as it does not account for
TX FIFO being cleared after software resets, causing
  BUG!, TX FIFO full when queue awake!
messages to be output.

There does not seem to be any way to accurately track the state of the
TX FIFO for local echo support while using the full TX FIFO.

The Zynq version of the HW (but not the soft-AXI version) has watermark
programming support and with it an additional TX-FIFO-empty interrupt
bit.

Modify the driver to only put 1 frame into TX FIFO at a time on soft-AXI
and 2 frames at a time on Zynq. On Zynq the TXFEMP interrupt bit is used
to detect whether 1 or 2 frames have been sent at interrupt processing
time.

Tested with the integrated CAN on Zynq-7000 SoC. The 1-frame-FIFO mode
was also tested.

An alternative way to solve this would be to drop local echo support but
keep using the full TX FIFO.

v2: Add FIFO space check before TX queue wake with locking to
synchronize with queue stop. This avoids waking the queue when xmit()
had just filled it.

v3: Keep local echo support and reduce the amount of frames in FIFO
instead as suggested by Marc Kleine-Budde.

The xilinx_can driver performs a software reset when an RX overrun is

messages are received or transmitted.

The documentation does not mention any need to perform a reset on an RX
overrun, and testing by inducing an RX overflow also indicated that the
device continues to work just fine without a reset.

Remove the software reset.

can: xilinx_can: fix RX loop if RXNEMP is asserted without RXOK

commit 32852c561bffd613d4ed7ec464b1e03e1b7b6c5c upstream.

If the device gets into a state where RXNEMP (RX FIFO not empty)
interrupt is asserted without RXOK (new frame received successfully)
interrupt being asserted, xcan_rx_poll() will continue to try to clear
RXNEMP without actually reading frames from RX FIFO. If the RX FIFO is
not empty, the interrupt will not be cleared and napi_schedule() will
just be called again.

This situation can occur when:

(a) xcan_rx() returns without reading RX FIFO due to an error condition.
The code tries to clear both RXOK and RXNEMP but RXNEMP will not clear
due to a frame still being in the FIFO. The frame will never be read
from the FIFO as RXOK is no longer set.

(b) A frame is received between xcan_rx_poll() reading interrupt status
and clearing RXOK. RXOK will be cleared, but RXNEMP will again remain
set as the new message is still in the FIFO.

I'm able to trigger case (b) by flooding the bus with frames under load.

There does not seem to be any benefit in using both RXNEMP and RXOK in
the way the driver does, and the polling example in the reference manual
(UG585 v1.10 18.3.7 Read Messages from RxFIFO) also says that either
RXOK or RXNEMP can be used for detecting incoming messages.

Fix the issue and simplify the RX processing by only using RXNEMP
without RXOK.

commit 722e5f2b1eec7de61117b7c0a7914761e3da2eda upstream.

Commit 52cdbdd49853 (driver core: correct device's shutdown order)
introduced a regression by breaking device shutdown on some systems.

Namely, the devices_kset_move_last() call in really_probe() added by
that commit is a mistake as it may cause parents to follow children
in the devices_kset list which then causes shutdown to fail.  For
example, if a device has children before really_probe() is called
for it (which is not uncommon), that call will cause it to be
reordered after the children in the devices_kset list and the
ordering of that list will not reflect the correct device shutdown
order any more.

Also it causes the devices_kset list to be constantly reordered
until all drivers have been probed which is totally pointless
overhead in the majority of cases and it only covered an issue
with system shutdown, while system-wide suspend/resume potentially
had the same issue on the affected platforms (which was not covered).

Moreover, the shutdown issue originally addressed by the change in
really_probe() made by commit 52cdbdd49853 is not present in 4.18-rc
any more, since dra7 started to use the sdhci-omap driver which
doesn't disable any regulators during shutdown, so the really_probe()
part of commit 52cdbdd49853 can be safely reverted.  [The original
issue was related to the omap_hsmmc driver used by dra7 previously.]

For the above reasons, revert the really_probe() modifications made
by commit 52cdbdd49853.

The other code changes made by commit 52cdbdd49853 are useful and
they need not be reverted.
