commit 7c8746a9eb287642deaad0e7c2cdf482dce5e4be upstream.

When unlocking a spinlock, we require the following, strictly ordered
sequence of events:

	&lt;barrier&gt;	/* dmb */
	&lt;unlock&gt;
	&lt;barrier&gt;	/* dsb */
	&lt;sev&gt;

Whilst the code does indeed reflect this in terms of the architecture,
the final &lt;barrier&gt; + &lt;sev&gt; have been contracted into a single inline
asm without a "memory" clobber, therefore the compiler is at liberty to
reorder the unlock to the end of the above sequence. In such a case,
a waiting CPU may be woken up before the lock has been unlocked, leading
to extremely poor performance.

This patch reworks the dsb_sev() function to make use of the dsb()
macro and ensure ordering against the unlock.

<title>ARM: 7953/1: mm: ensure TLB invalidation is complete before enabling MMU</title>

commit bae0ca2bc550d1ec6a118fb8f2696f18c4da3d8e upstream.

During __v{6,7}_setup, we invalidate the TLBs since we are about to
enable the MMU on return to head.S. Unfortunately, without a subsequent
dsb instruction, the invalidation is not guaranteed to have completed by
the time we write to the sctlr, potentially exposing us to junk/stale
translations cached in the TLB.

This patch reworks the init functions so that the dsb used to ensure
completion of cache/predictor maintenance is also used to ensure
completion of the TLB invalidation.

commit 4ff859fe1dc0da0f87bbdfff78f527898878fa4a upstream.

The clockevents code was being told that the footbridge clock event
device ticks at 16x the rate which it actually does.  This leads to
timekeeping problems since it allows the clocksource to wrap before
the kernel notices.  Fix this by using the correct clock.

commit 8404663f81d212918ff85f493649a7991209fa04 upstream.

The {get,put}_user macros don't perform range checking on the provided

This patch reworks the out-of-line assembly accessors to check the user
address against a specified limit, returning -EFAULT if is is out of

commit ff88b4724fde18056a4c539f7327389aec0f4c2d upstream.

Erratum 71 of PXA270M Processor Family Specification Update
(April 19, 2010) explains that watchdog reset time is just
8us insead of 10ms in EMTS.

If SDRAM is not reset, it causes memory bus congestion and
the device hangs. We put SDRAM in selfresh mode before watchdog
reset, removing potential freezes.

Without this patch PXA270-based ICP DAS LP-8x4x hangs after up to 40
reboots. With this patch it has successfully rebooted 500 times.

commit 1b15ec7a7427d4188ba91b9bbac696250a059d22 upstream.

get_wchan() is lockless. Task may wakeup at any time and change its own stack,
thus each next stack frame may be overwritten and filled with random stuff.

/proc/$pid/stack interface had been disabled for non-current tasks, see [1]
But 'wchan' still allows to trigger stack frame unwinding on volatile stack.

This patch fixes oops in unwind_frame() by adding stack pointer validation on
each step (as x86 code do), unwind_frame() already checks frame pointer.

Also I've found another report of this oops on stackoverflow (irony).
