commit 95364f36701e62dd50eee91e1303187fd1a9f567 upstream.

In case a driver wants to return an error from qc_prep, return enum
ata_completion_errors. sata_mv is one of those drivers -- see the next
patch. Other drivers return the newly defined AC_ERR_OK.

[v2] use enum ata_completion_errors and AC_ERR_OK.

<title>USB: core: Fix bug caused by duplicate interface PM usage counter</title>

commit c2b71462d294cf517a0bc6e4fd6424d7cee5596f upstream.

The syzkaller fuzzer reported a bug in the USB hub driver which turned
out to be caused by a negative runtime-PM usage counter.  This allowed
a hub to be runtime suspended at a time when the driver did not expect
it.  The symptom is a WARNING issued because the hub's status URB is
submitted while it is already active:

	URB 0000000031fb463e submitted while active
	WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2917 at drivers/usb/core/urb.c:363

The negative runtime-PM usage count was caused by an unfortunate
design decision made when runtime PM was first implemented for USB.
At that time, USB class drivers were allowed to unbind from their
interfaces without balancing the usage counter (i.e., leaving it with
a positive count).  The core code would take care of setting the
counter back to 0 before allowing another driver to bind to the
interface.

Later on when runtime PM was implemented for the entire kernel, the
opposite decision was made: Drivers were required to balance their
runtime-PM get and put calls.  In order to maintain backward
compatibility, however, the USB subsystem adapted to the new
implementation by keeping an independent usage counter for each
interface and using it to automatically adjust the normal usage
counter back to 0 whenever a driver was unbound.

This approach involves duplicating information, but what is worse, it
doesn't work properly in cases where a USB class driver delays
decrementing the usage counter until after the driver's disconnect()
routine has returned and the counter has been adjusted back to 0.
Doing so would cause the usage counter to become negative.  There's
even a warning about this in the USB power management documentation!

As it happens, this is exactly what the hub driver does.  The
kick_hub_wq() routine increments the runtime-PM usage counter, and the
corresponding decrement is carried out by hub_event() in the context
of the hub_wq work-queue thread.  This work routine may sometimes run
after the driver has been unbound from its interface, and when it does
it causes the usage counter to go negative.

It is not possible for hub_disconnect() to wait for a pending
hub_event() call to finish, because hub_disconnect() is called with
the device lock held and hub_event() acquires that lock.  The only
feasible fix is to reverse the original design decision: remove the
duplicate interface-specific usage counter and require USB drivers to
balance their runtime PM gets and puts.  As far as I know, all
existing drivers currently do this.

This reverts commit 81f95076281fdd3bc382e004ba1bce8e82fccbce.

It causes random failures of firmware loading at resume time (well,
random for me, it seems to be more reliable for others) because the
firmware disabling is not actually synchronous with any particular
resume event, and at least the btusb driver that uses a workqueue to
load the firmware at resume seems to occasionally hit the "firmware
loading is disabled" logic because the firmware loader hasn't gotten the
resume event yet.

Some kind of sanity check for not trying to load firmware when it's not
possible might be a good thing, but this commit was not it.

Greg seems to have silently suffered the same issue, and pointed to the
likely culprit, and Gabriel C verified the revert fixed it for him too.

  Core changes:

   - Allow the GPIO irqchip to allocate IRQs dynamically. This is an
     important change on systems where only a restricted number of IRQs,
     lesser than the number of GPIO lines, can be utilized. Now we can
     allocate these on a first-come-first-served basis instead of
     hogging up valuable IRQ lines.

   - Serious fix-up of the kerneldoc documentation and inclusion into
     the kerneldoc builds.

   - Pulled in the IRQ simulator from the IRQ core tree and use this in
     the GPIO mockup driver for exhaustive testing of interrupt
     abilities.

  New drivers:

   - New driver for ThunderX and OCTEON-TX. This is especially
     interesting as it picks up improvements from the IRQ core that
     allow us to handle fasteoi ACKs upwards in a hierarchy when there
     are IRQ flag latches on several levels in a hierarchy. Very
     interesting work here.

   - New subdriver for Renesas R-Car r8a7745 (RZ/G1E).

  Misc:

   - Several fixes and improvements for Xilinx Zynq GPIO.

   - Support an enablement GPIO for the 74x164 GPIO.

   - Switch a bunch of chips to use devres to allocate irq descriptors.

   - A bunch of constification fixes"

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of the GPIO changes for the v4.14 cycle.

  Not so much changes this time, phew. David Daney and Bartosz
  Golaszewski did all the really interesting work in infrastructure
  improvement across GPIO and IRQ core, hats off for them and to tglx
  and Marc Z for general help with these patch sets.

This adds a section about the various parts of the GPIO subsystem to the
driver API documentation. Note that this isn't exhaustive documentation,
but rather focusses on pulling in the kerneldoc from various sources, in
order to improve coverage of kerneldoc processing.

We are planning to share more code between different NAND based
devices (SPI NAND, OneNAND and raw NANDs), but before doing that
we need to move the existing include/linux/mtd/nand.h file into
include/linux/mtd/rawnand.h so we can later create a nand.h header
containing all common structure and function prototypes.
