commit e545f0d8a54a9594fe604d67d80ca6fddf72ca59 upstream.

If secure authentication of a devices fails, either because the device
already has another key uploaded, or there is some other error sending
challenge to the device, and the user only wants to approve the device
just once (without a new key being uploaded to the device) the current
implementation does not allow this because the key cannot be cleared
once set even if we allow it to be changed.

Make this scenario possible and allow clearing the key by writing
empty string to the key sysfs file.

<title>Revert "firmware: add sanity check on shutdown/suspend"</title>

commit f007cad159e99fa2acd3b2e9364fbb32ad28b971 upstream.

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.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
 "A couple of late-arriving fixes before final 4.13:

   - A few reverts of DT bindings on Allwinner for their ethernet
     driver. Discussion didn't converge, and since bindings are
     considered ABI it makes sense to revert instead of having to
     support two bindings long-term.

   - A fix to enumerate GPIOs properly on Marvell Armada AP806"

Allwinner fixes for 4.13, take 3

This is a revert of the EMAC bindings. The discussion has not settled down
yet on a proper representation of the PHY, and therefore we cannot commit
to a binding yet

This binding still doesn't please everyone, and we're getting far too
close from the release to allow it to reach a stable version.

Let's remove it until the discussion settles down.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Fix IGMP handling wrt VRF, from David Ahern.

 2) Fix timer access to freed object in dccp, from Eric Dumazet.

 3) Use kmalloc_array() in ptr_ring to avoid overflow cases which are
    triggerable by userspace. Also from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Fix infinite loop in unmapping cleanup of nfp driver, from Colin Ian
    King.

 5) Correct datagram peek handling of empty SKBs, from Matthew Dawson.

 8) Fix bug in pci_find_pcie_root_port() which was unearthed by the
    relaxed ordering changes, from Thierry Redding. I made sure to get
    an explicit ACK from Bjorn this time around :-)

The sysctl documentation states that the JIT is only available on
x86_64, which is no longer correct.

Update the list, and break it out to indicate which architectures
support the cBPF JIT (via HAVE_CBPF_JIT) or the eBPF JIT
(HAVE_EBPF_JIT).
