Commit d795ef9aa831 ("arm64: perf: don't warn about missing
interrupt-affinity property for PPIs") added a check for PPIs so that
we avoid parsing the interrupt-affinity property for these naturally
affine interrupts.

Unfortunately, this check can trigger an early (successful) return and
we will leak the irqs array. This patch fixes the issue by reordering
the code so that the check is performed before any independent
allocation.

This reverts most of commit fef7f2b2010381c795ae43743ad31931cc58f5ad.

It turns out that there are a couple of problems with the way we're
fixing up branch instructions used as part of alternative instruction
sequences:

  (1) If the branch target is also in the alternative sequence, we'll
      generate a branch into the .altinstructions section which actually
      gets freed.

  (2) The calls to aarch64_insn_{read,write} bring an awful lot more
      code into the patching path (e.g. taking locks, poking the fixmap,
      invalidating the TLB) which isn't actually needed for the early
      patching run under stop_machine, but makes the use of alternative
      sequences extremely fragile (as we can't patch code that could be
      used by the patching code).

Given that no code actually requires alternative patching of immediate
branches, let's remove this support for now and revisit it when we've
got a user. We leave the updated size check, since we really do require
the sequences to be the same length.

With commit d5efd9cc9cf2 ("arm64: pmu: add support for interrupt-affinity
property"), we print a warning when we find a PMU SPI with a missing
missing interrupt-affinity property in a pmu node. Unfortunately, we
pass the wrong (NULL) device node to of_node_full_name, resulting in
unhelpful messages such as:

 hw perfevents: Failed to parse &lt;no-node&gt;/interrupt-affinity[0]

This patch fixes the name to that of the pmu node.

PPIs are affine by nature, so the interrupt-affinity property is not
used and therefore we shouldn't print a warning in its absence.

Pull initial ACPI support for arm64 from Will Deacon:
 "This series introduces preliminary ACPI 5.1 support to the arm64
  kernel using the "hardware reduced" profile.  We don't support any
  peripherals yet, so it's fairly limited in scope:

   - MEMORY init (UEFI)

   - ACPI discovery (RSDP via UEFI)

   - CPU init (FADT)

   - GIC init (MADT)

   - SMP boot (MADT + PSCI)

   - ACPI Kconfig options (dependent on EXPERT)

  ACPI for arm64 has been in development for a while now and hardware
  has been available that can boot with either FDT or ACPI tables.  This
  has been made possible by both changes to the ACPI spec to cater for
  ARM-based machines (known as "hardware-reduced" in ACPI parlance) but
  also a Linaro-driven effort to get this supported on top of the Linux
  kernel.  This pull request is the result of that work.

  These changes allow us to initialise the CPUs, interrupt controller,
  and timers via ACPI tables, with memory information and cmdline coming
  from EFI.  We don't support a hybrid ACPI/FDT scheme.  Of course,
  there is still plenty of work to do (a serial console would be nice!)
  but I expect that to happen on a per-driver basis after this core
  series has been merged.

  Anyway, the diff stat here is fairly horrible, but splitting this up
  and merging it via all the different subsystems would have been
  extremely painful.  Instead, we've got all the relevant Acks in place
  and I've not seen anything other than trivial (Kconfig) conflicts in
  -next (for completeness, I've included my resolution below).  Nearly
  half of the insertions fall under Documentation/.

  So, we'll see how this goes.  Right now, it all depends on EXPERT and
  I fully expect people to use FDT by default for the immediate future"

Pull exec domain removal from Richard Weinberger:
 "This series removes execution domain support from Linux.

  The idea behind exec domains was to support different ABIs.  The
  feature was never complete nor stable.  Let's rip it out and make the
  kernel signal handling code less complicated"

* 'exec_domain_rip_v2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rw/misc: (27 commits)
  arm64: Removed unused variable
  sparc: Fix execution domain removal
  Remove rest of exec domains.

  arc: Remove signal translation and exec_domain
  xtensa: Remove signal translation and exec_domain

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are mostly fixes and cleanups all over, although there are a few
  items that sort of fall into the new feature category.

  First off, we have new callbacks for PM domains that should help us to
  handle some issues related to device initialization in a better way.

  There also is some consolidation in the unified device properties API
  area allowing us to use that inferface for accessing data coming from
  platform initialization code in addition to firmware-provided data.

  We have some new device/CPU IDs in a few drivers, support for new
  chips and a new cpufreq driver too.

  Specifics:

   - Generic PM domains support update including new PM domain callbacks
     to handle device initialization better (Russell King, Rafael J
     Wysocki, Kevin Hilman)

   - Unified device properties API update including a new mechanism for
     accessing data provided by platform initialization code (Rafael J
     Wysocki, Adrian Hunter)

   - ARM cpuidle update including ARM32/ARM64 handling consolidation
     (Daniel Lezcano)

   - intel_idle update including support for the Silvermont Core in the
     Baytrail SOC and for the Airmont Core in the Cherrytrail and
     Braswell SOCs (Len Brown, Mathias Krause)

   - New cpufreq driver for Hisilicon ACPU (Leo Yan)

   - intel_pstate update including support for the Knights Landing chip
     (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli, Kristen Carlson Accardi)

   - QorIQ cpufreq driver update (Tang Yuantian, Arnd Bergmann)

   - powernv cpufreq driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat)

   - devfreq update including Tegra support changes (Tomeu Vizoso,
     MyungJoo Ham, Chanwoo Choi)

   - powercap RAPL (Running-Average Power Limit) driver update including
     support for Intel Broadwell server chips (Jacob Pan, Mathias Krause)

   - ACPI device enumeration update related to the handling of the
     special PRP0001 device ID allowing DT-style 'compatible' property
     to be used for ACPI device identification (Rafael J Wysocki)

   - ACPI EC driver update including limited _DEP support (Lan Tianyu,
     Lv Zheng)

   - ACPI backlight driver update including a new mechanism to allow
     native backlight handling to be forced on non-Windows 8 systems and
     a new quirk for Lenovo Ideapad Z570 (Aaron Lu, Hans de Goede)

   - New Windows Vista compatibility quirk for Sony VGN-SR19XN (Chen Yu)

   - Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups (Aaron Lu, Martin Kepplinger,
     Masanari Iida, Mika Westerberg, Nan Li, Rafael J Wysocki)

   - Fixes related to suspend-to-idle for the iTCO watchdog driver and
     the ACPI core system suspend/resume code (Rafael J Wysocki, Chen Yu)

   - PM tracing support for the suspend phase of system suspend/resume
     transitions (Zhonghui Fu)

   - Configurable delay for the system suspend/resume testing facility
     (Brian Norris)

   - PNP subsystem cleanups (Peter Huewe, Rafael J Wysocki)"

* tag 'pm+acpi-4.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (74 commits)
  ACPI / scan: Fix NULL pointer dereference in acpi_companion_match()
  ACPI / scan: Rework modalias creation when "compatible" is present
  intel_idle: mark cpu id array as __initconst
  powercap / RAPL: mark rapl_ids array as __initconst
  powercap / RAPL: add ID for Broadwell server
  intel_pstate: Knights Landing support
  intel_pstate: remove MSR test
  cpufreq: fix qoriq uniprocessor build
  ACPI / scan: Take the PRP0001 position in the list of IDs into account
  ACPI / scan: Simplify acpi_match_device()
  ACPI / scan: Generalize of_compatible matching
  device property: Introduce firmware node type for platform data
  device property: Make it possible to use secondary firmware nodes
  PM / watchdog: iTCO: stop watchdog during system suspend
  cpufreq: hisilicon: add acpu driver
  ACPI / EC: Call acpi_walk_dep_device_list() after installing EC opregion handler
  cpufreq: powernv: Report cpu frequency throttling
  intel_idle: Add support for the Airmont Core in the Cherrytrail and Braswell SOCs
  intel_idle: Update support for Silvermont Core in Baytrail SOC
  PM / devfreq: tegra: Register governor on module init
