[ Upstream commit 59fa12646d9f56c842b4d5b6418ed77af625c588 ]

Add comment in arch_sync_dma_for_device() and handle the direction flag in
arch_sync_dma_for_cpu().

When receiving data from the device (DMA_FROM_DEVICE) unconditionally
purge the data cache in arch_sync_dma_for_cpu().

<title>parisc: Fix flush_dcache_page() for usage from irq context</title>

commit 61e150fb310729c98227a5edf6e4a3619edc3702 upstream.

Since at least kernel 6.1, flush_dcache_page() is called with IRQs
disabled, e.g. from aio_complete().

But the current implementation for flush_dcache_page() on parisc
unintentionally re-enables IRQs, which may lead to deadlocks.

Fix it by using xa_lock_irqsave() and xa_unlock_irqrestore()
for the flush_dcache_mmap_*lock() macros instead.

commit b6405f0829d7b1dd926ba3ca5f691cab835abfaa upstream.

When patching the kernel code some alternatives depend on SMP vs. !SMP.
Use the value of num_present_cpus() instead of num_online_cpus() to
decide, otherwise we may run into issues if and additional CPU is
enabled after having loaded a module while only one CPU was enabled.

[ Upstream commit 829632dae8321787525ee37dc4828bbe6edafdae ]

The panic notifiers' callbacks execute in an atomic context, with
interrupts/preemption disabled, and all CPUs not running the panic
function are off, so it's very dangerous to wait on a regular
spinlock, there's a risk of deadlock.

Refactor the panic notifier of parisc/power driver to make use
of spin_trylock - for that, we've added a second version of the
soft-power function. Also, some comments were reorganized and
trailing white spaces, useless header inclusion and blank lines
were removed.

commit d755bd2caeb47fd806e12399fe8b56798fa5d2cc upstream.

Matthew Wilcox noticed, that if ARCH_HAS_FLUSH_ON_KUNMAP is defined
(which is the case for PA-RISC), __kunmap_local() calls
kunmap_flush_on_unmap(), which may call the parisc flush functions with
a non-page-aligned address and thus the page might not be fully flushed.

This patch ensures that flush_kernel_dcache_page_asm() and
flush_kernel_dcache_page_asm() will always operate on page-aligned
addresses.

commit 6e3220ba3323a2c24be834aebf5d6e9f89d0993f upstream.

Fix the argument pointer (ap) to point to real-mode memory
instead of virtual memory.

It's interesting that this issue hasn't shown up earlier, as this could
have happened with any 64-bit PDC ROM code.

I just noticed it because I suddenly faced a HPMC while trying to execute
the 64-bit STI ROM code of an Visualize-FXe graphics card for the STI
text console.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.3-rc1.

  There's a lot of changes this development cycle, most of the work
  falls into two different categories:

   - fw_devlink fixes and updates. This has gone through numerous review
     cycles and lots of review and testing by lots of different devices.
     Hopefully all should be good now, and Saravana will be keeping a
     watch for any potential regression on odd embedded systems.

   - driver core changes to work to make struct bus_type able to be
     moved into read-only memory (i.e. const) The recent work with Rust
     has pointed out a number of areas in the driver core where we are
     passing around and working with structures that really do not have
     to be dynamic at all, and they should be able to be read-only
     making things safer overall. This is the contuation of that work
     (started last release with kobject changes) in moving struct
     bus_type to be constant. We didn't quite make it for this release,
     but the remaining patches will be finished up for the release after
     this one, but the groundwork has been laid for this effort.

  Other than that we have in here:

   - debugfs memory leak fixes in some subsystems

   - error path cleanups and fixes for some never-able-to-be-hit
     codepaths.

   - cacheinfo rework and fixes

   - Other tiny fixes, full details are in the shortlog

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems"

[ Geert Uytterhoeven points out that that last sentence isn't true, and
  that there's a pending report that has a fix that is queued up - Linus ]
