commit 96a64e9730c2c76cfa5c510583a0fbf40d62886b upstream.

Operating stable without reduced chip life at 1Ghz needs several
technologies working: The technologies involve
- SmartReflex
- DVFS

As this cannot directly specified in the OPP table as dependecies in the
devicetree yet, use the turbo flag again to mark this OPP as something
special to have some kind of opt-in.

So revert commit
5f1bf7ae8481 ("ARM: dts: omap36xx: Remove turbo mode for 1GHz variants")

Practical reasoning:
At least the GTA04A5 (DM3730) has become unstable with that OPP enabled.
Furthermore nothing enforces the availability of said technologies,
even in the kernel configuration, so allow users to rather opt-in.

[ Upstream commit b2473a359763e27567993e7d8f37de82f57a0829 ]

 __pa() is only intended to be used for linear map addresses and using
it for initial_boot_params which is in fixmap for arm64 will give an
incorrect value. Hence save the physical address when it is known at
boot time when calling early_init_dt_scan for arm64 and use it at kexec
time instead of converting the virtual address using __pa().

Note that arm64 doesn't need the FDT region reserved in the DT as the
kernel explicitly reserves the passed in FDT. Therefore, only a debug
warning is fixed with this change.

<title>ARM: dts: cubieboard4: Fix DCDC5 regulator constraints</title>

[ Upstream commit dd36ad71ad65968f97630808bc8d605c929b128e ]

The DCDC5 voltage rail in the X-Powers AXP809 PMIC has a resolution of
50mV, so the currently enforced limits of 1.475 and 1.525 volts cannot
be set, when the existing regulator value is beyond this range.

This will lead to the whole regulator driver to give up and fail
probing, which in turn will hang the system, as essential devices depend
on the PMIC.
In this case a bug in U-Boot set the voltage to 1.75V (meant for DCDC4),
and the AXP driver's attempt to correct this lead to this error:
==================
[    4.447653] axp20x-rsb sunxi-rsb-3a3: AXP20X driver loaded

==================

Set the limits to values that can be programmed, so any correction will
be successful.

[ Upstream commit 2f9d013a0c6f1b9109ada5acb28ee26eefc77c03 ]

Add the atmel,usart-mode property to the UART nodes. This ensures
compliance with the atmel,at91-usart.yaml schema and resolves the errors
below:
serial@200: $nodename:0: 'serial@200' does not match
'^spi(@.*|-([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]+))?$'
serial@200: atmel,use-dma-rx: False schema does not allow True
serial@200: atmel,use-dma-tx: False schema does not allow True
serial@200: atmel,fifo-size: False schema does not allow [[16]]

These errors indicate that the property
atmel,usart-mode = &lt;AT91_USART_MODE_SERIAL&gt; is missing for
UART nodes 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12.

[ Upstream commit 4aea16b7cfb76bd3361858ceee6893ef5c9b5570 ]

When enabling expert mode CONFIG_EXPERT and using that power
user mode to disable the branch prediction hardening
!CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR, the assembly linker
in CLANG notices that some assembly in proc-v7.S does
not have corresponding C call sites, i.e. the prototypes
in proc-v7-bugs.c are enclosed in ifdef
CONFIG_HARDEN_BRANCH_PREDICTOR so this assembly:

SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START(cpu_v7_smc_switch_mm)
SYM_TYPED_FUNC_START(cpu_v7_hvc_switch_mm)

Results in:

ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __kcfi_typeid_cpu_v7_smc_switch_mm

Fix this by adding an additional requirement that

these assembly calls.

<title>crash, powerpc: default to CRASH_DUMP=n on PPC_BOOK3S_32</title>

commit 31daa34315d45d3fe77f2158d889d523d78852ea upstream.

Fixes boot failures on 6.9 on PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines using Open Firmware.
On these machines, the kernel refuses to boot from non-zero
PHYSICAL_START, which occurs when CRASH_DUMP is on.

Since most PPC_BOOK3S_32 machines boot via Open Firmware, it should
default to off for them.  Users booting via some other mechanism can still
turn it on explicitly.

Does not change the default on any other architectures for the
time being.

<title>ARM: fix cacheflush with PAN</title>

[ Upstream commit ca29cfcc4a21083d671522ad384532e28a43f033 ]

It seems that the cacheflush syscall got broken when PAN for LPAE was
implemented. User access was not enabled around the cache maintenance
instructions, causing them to fault.

<title>ARM: 9419/1: mm: Fix kernel memory mapping for xip kernels</title>

[ Upstream commit ed6cbe6e5563452f305e89c15846820f2874e431 ]

The patchset introducing kernel_sec_start/end variables to separate the
kernel/lowmem memory mappings, broke the mapping of the kernel memory
for xipkernels.

kernel_sec_start/end variables are in RO area before the MMU is switched
on for xipkernels.
So these cannot be set early in boot in head.S. Fix this by setting these
after MMU is switched on.
xipkernels need two different mappings for kernel text (starting at
CONFIG_XIP_PHYS_ADDR) and data (starting at CONFIG_PHYS_OFFSET).
Also, move the kernel code mapping from devicemaps_init() to map_kernel().
