<id>9edd6fd1eb92ebd61c84975855335922db632ea5</id>
<content type='text'>
commit e2dfb4b880146bfd4b6aa8e138c0205407cebbaf upstream.

PTRACE_SETVFPREGS fails to properly mark the VFP register set to be
reloaded, because it undoes one of the effects of vfp_flush_hwstate().

Specifically vfp_flush_hwstate() sets thread-&gt;vfpstate.hard.cpu to
an invalid CPU number, but vfp_set() overwrites this with the original
CPU number, thereby rendering the hardware state as apparently "valid",
even though the software state is more recent.

Fix this by reverting the previous change.

 "Further ARM fixes:
   - Anson Huang noticed that we were corrupting a register we shouldn't
     be during suspend on some CPUs.
   - Shengjiu Wang spotted a bug in the 'swp' instruction emulation.
   - Will Deacon fixed a bug in the ASID allocator.
   - Laura Abbott fixed the kernel permission protection to apply to all
     threads running in the system.
   - I've fixed two bugs with the domain access control register
     handling, one to do with printing an appropriate value at oops
     time, and the other to further fix the uaccess_with_memcpy code"

__user_swpX_asm maybe failed in first STREX operation, emulate_swpX

causes the result is wrong.
This patch is to fix this issue. When STREX succeed, change the *data.

When printing the DACR value, we print the domain register value.
This is incorrect, as with SW_PAN enabled, that is the current setting,
rather than the faulting context's setting.  Arrange to print the
faulting domain's saved DACR value instead.

Commit b3a72384fe29 ("ARM/PCI: Replace pci_sys_data-&gt;align_resource with
global function pointer") introduced an ARM-specific align_resource()
function pointer.  This is not portable to other arches and doesn't work
for platforms with two different PCIe host bridge controllers.

Move the function pointer to the pci_host_bridge structure so each host
bridge driver can specify its own align_resource() function.
