commit a74cd13b807029397f7232449df929bac11fb228 upstream.

Fix Dove's register addresses of uart2 and uart3 nodes that seem to
be broken since ages due to a copy-and-paste error.

commit 4e330ae4ab2915444f1e6dca1358a910aa259362 upstream.

There are two PMICs on Cragganmore, currently one dynamically assign
its IRQ base and the other uses a fixed base. It is possible for the
statically assigned PMIC to fail if its IRQ is taken by the dynamically
assigned one. Fix this by statically assigning both the IRQ bases.

<title>ARM: 8320/1: fix integer overflow in ELF_ET_DYN_BASE</title>

commit 8defb3367fcd19d1af64c07792aade0747b54e0f upstream.

Usually ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is 2/3 of TASK_SIZE. With 3G/1G user/kernel
split this is not so, because 2*TASK_SIZE overflows 32 bits,
so the actual value of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE is:
	(2 * TASK_SIZE / 3) = 0x2a000000

When ASLR is disabled PIE binaries will load at ELF_ET_DYN_BASE address.
On 32bit platforms AddressSanitzer uses addresses [0x20000000 - 0x40000000]
for shadow memory [1]. So ASan doesn't work for PIE binaries when ASLR disabled
as it fails to map shadow memory.
Also after Kees's 'split ET_DYN ASLR from mmap ASLR' patchset PIE binaries
has a high chance of loading somewhere in between [0x2a000000 - 0x40000000]
even if ASLR enabled. This makes ASan with PIE absolutely incompatible.

Fix overflow by dividing TASK_SIZE prior to multiplying.
After this patch ELF_ET_DYN_BASE equals to (for CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G=y):
	(TASK_SIZE / 3 * 2) = 0x7f555554

commit 84e871660bebfddb9a62ebd6f19d02536e782f0a upstream.

at91rm9200 standby and suspend to ram has been broken since
00482a4078f4. It is wrongly using AT91_BASE_SYS which is a physical address
and actually doesn't correspond to any register on at91rm9200.

Use the correct at91_ramc_base[0] instead.

Since the removal of CONFIG_REGULATOR_DUMMY option, the touchscreen stopped
working. This patch enables the "replacement" for REGULATOR_DUMMY and
allows the touchscreen to work even though there is no regulator for "vcc".

Add regulator_has_full_constraints() call to poodle board file to let
regulator core know that we do not have any additional regulators left.
This lets it substitute unprovided regulators with dummy ones.

This fixes the following warnings that can be seen on poodle if
regulators are enabled:

commit e461894dc2ce7778ccde1c3483c9b15a85a7fc5f upstream.

StrongARM core uses RCSR SMR bit to tell to bootloader that it was reset
by entering the sleep mode. After we have resumed, there is little point
in having that bit enabled. Moreover, if this bit is set before reboot,
the bootloader can become confused. Thus clear the SMR bit on resume
just before clearing the scratchpad (resume address) register.

<title>ARM: 8109/1: mm: Modify pte_write and pmd_write logic for LPAE</title>

<content type='text'>
commit ded9477984690d026e46dd75e8157392cea3f13f upstream.

For LPAE, we have the following means for encoding writable or dirty
ptes:
                              L_PTE_DIRTY       L_PTE_RDONLY
    !pte_dirty &amp;&amp; !pte_write        0               1
    !pte_dirty &amp;&amp; pte_write         0               1
    pte_dirty &amp;&amp; !pte_write         1               1
    pte_dirty &amp;&amp; pte_write          1               0

So we can't distinguish between writeable clean ptes and read only
ptes. This can cause problems with ptes being incorrectly flagged as
read only when they are writeable but not dirty.

This patch renumbers L_PTE_RDONLY from AP[2] to a software bit #58,
and adds additional logic to set AP[2] whenever the pte is read only
or not dirty. That way we can distinguish between clean writeable ptes
and read only ptes.

HugeTLB pages will use this new logic automatically.

We need to add some logic to Transparent HugePages to ensure that they
correctly interpret the revised pgprot permissions (L_PTE_RDONLY has
moved and no longer matches PMD_SECT_AP2). In the process of revising
THP, the names of the PMD software bits have been prefixed with L_ to
make them easier to distinguish from their hardware bit counterparts.

                              L_PTE_DIRTY       L_PTE_RDONLY
    !pte_dirty &amp;&amp; !pte_write        0               1
    !pte_dirty &amp;&amp; pte_write         0               1
    pte_dirty &amp;&amp; !pte_write         1               1
    pte_dirty &amp;&amp; pte_write          1               0

So we can't distinguish between writeable clean ptes and read only
ptes. This can cause problems with ptes being incorrectly flagged as
read only when they are writeable but not dirty.

This patch renumbers L_PTE_RDONLY from AP[2] to a software bit #58,
and adds additional logic to set AP[2] whenever the pte is read only
or not dirty. That way we can distinguish between clean writeable ptes
and read only ptes.

HugeTLB pages will use this new logic automatically.

We need to add some logic to Transparent HugePages to ensure that they
correctly interpret the revised pgprot permissions (L_PTE_RDONLY has
moved and no longer matches PMD_SECT_AP2). In the process of revising
THP, the names of the PMD software bits have been prefixed with L_ to
make them easier to distinguish from their hardware bit counterparts.

commit f2950706871c4b6e8c0f0d7c3f62d35930b8de63 upstream.

Long descriptors on ARM are 64 bits, and some pte functions such as
pte_dirty return a bitwise-and of a flag with the pte value. If the
flag to be tested resides in the upper 32 bits of the pte, then we run
into the danger of the result being dropped if downcast.

For example:
	gather_stats(page, md, pte_dirty(*pte), 1);
where pte_dirty(*pte) is downcast to an int.

This patch introduces a new macro pte_isset which performs the bitwise
and, then performs a double logical invert (where needed) to ensure
predictable downcasting. The logical inverse pte_isclear is also
introduced.

Equivalent pmd functions for Transparent HugePages have also been
added.
