commit 85bd0ba1ff9875798fad94218b627ea9f768f3c3 upstream.

Although we've implemented PSCI 0.1, 0.2 and 1.0, we expose either 0.1
or 1.0 to a guest, defaulting to the latest version of the PSCI
implementation that is compatible with the requested version. This is
no different from doing a firmware upgrade on KVM.

But in order to give a chance to hypothetical badly implemented guests
that would have a fit by discovering something other than PSCI 0.2,
let's provide a new API that allows userspace to pick one particular
version of the API.

This is implemented as a new class of "firmware" registers, where
we expose the PSCI version. This allows the PSCI version to be
save/restored as part of a guest migration, and also set to
any supported version if the guest requires it.

commit 6e8fe39989720b87439fee7817a5ca362b16d931 upstream.

Remove QSPI Sector 4K size force which is causing QSPI boot
problems with the JFFS2 root filesystem.

Fixes the following error:

commit 1c3bc8fb10c1803f8651911722ed584db3dfb0f2 upstream.

The DTS file for the NAS4220B had the pin config for the
ethernet interface set to the pins in the SL3512 SoC while
this system is using SL3516. Fix it by referencing the
right SL3516 pins instead of the SL3512 pins.

commit 9a06757dcc8509c162ac00488c8c82fc98e04227 upstream.

The compatible string is incorrect. Add atmel,sama5d3-pinctrl since
it's the appropriate compatible string. Remove the
atmel,at91rm9200-pinctrl compatible string, this fallback is
useless, there are too many changes.

commit e8fd0adf105e132fd84545997bbef3d5edc2c9c1 upstream.

There are only 19 PIOB pins having primary names PB0-PB18. Not all of them
have a 'C' function. So the pinctrl property mask ends up being the same as the
other SoC of the at91sam9x5 series.

Fix that USB initialization fails as below runtime log is present during
booting on bananapi-r2 board by adding missing regulators the USB device
requires. Current regulators USB device uses are being updated with the
correct ones to reflect real configurations which are all from fixed
regulators rather than MT6323 one's output.

<content type='text'>
commit a7480dbcf983c31d8111f864c848e8a75116a87d upstream.

Since commit 04c8b0f82c7d ("irqchip/gic: Make locking a BL_SWITCHER only
feature") coupled CPU idle freezes from time to time on Exynos4210. Later
commit 313c8c16ee62 ("PM / CPU: replace raw_notifier with atomic_notifier")
changed the context in which the CPU idle code is executed, what results
in fully reproducible freeze all the time. However, almost the same coupled
CPU idle code works fine on Exynos3250 regardless of the changes made in
the mentioned commits.

It turned out that the IPI call used on Exynos4210 is conflicting with the
change done in the first mentioned commit in GIC. Fix this by using the
same code path as for Exynos3250, instead of the IPI call for
synchronization with second CPU core, call dsb_sev() directly.

Tested on Exynos4210-based Trats and Origen boards.

commit 7bbaf27d9c83037b6e60a818e57bdbedf6bc15be upstream.

Calling __stack_chk_guard_setup() in decompress_kernel() is too late
that stack checking always fails for decompress_kernel() itself.  So
remove __stack_chk_guard_setup() and initialize __stack_chk_guard before
we call decompress_kernel().

Original code comes from ARM but also used for MIPS and SH, so fix them
together.  If without this fix, compressed booting of these archs will
fail because stack checking is enabled by default (&gt;=4.16).

together.  If without this fix, compressed booting of these archs will
fail because stack checking is enabled by default (&gt;=4.16).

<title>crypto: arm,arm64 - Fix random regeneration of S_shipped</title>

commit 6aaf49b495b446ff6eec0ac983f781ca0dc56a73 upstream.

The decision to rebuild .S_shipped is made based on the relative
timestamps of .S_shipped and .pl files but git makes this essentially
random. This means that the perl script might run anyway (usually at
most once per checkout), defeating the whole purpose of _shipped.

Fix by skipping the rule unless explicit make variables are provided:
REGENERATE_ARM_CRYPTO or REGENERATE_ARM64_CRYPTO.

This can produce nasty occasional build failures downstream, for example
for toolchains with broken perl. The solution is minimally intrusive to
make it easier to push into stable.

Another report on a similar issue here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/8/1379
