commit 6f07048c00fd100ed8cab66c225c157e0b6c0a50 upstream.

Under certain circumstances, we hit a warning in lockdep_register_key:

        if (WARN_ON_ONCE(static_obj(key)))
                return;

This occurs when the key falls into initmem that has since been freed
and can now be reused. This has been observed on boot, and under
memory pressure.

Define arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed(), which allows lockdep to
correctly identify this memory as dynamic.

This fixes a bug picked up by the powerpc64 syzkaller instance where
we hit the WARN via alloc_netdev_mqs.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 552263456215ada7ee8700ce022d12b0cffe4802 ]

clock_getres in the vDSO library has to preserve the same behaviour
of posix_get_hrtimer_res().

In particular, posix_get_hrtimer_res() does:
    sec = 0;
    ns = hrtimer_resolution;
and hrtimer_resolution depends on the enablement of the high
resolution timers that can happen either at compile or at run time.

Fix the powerpc vdso implementation of clock_getres keeping a copy of
hrtimer_resolution in vdso data and using that directly.

commit af2e8c68b9c5403f77096969c516f742f5bb29e0 upstream.

On some systems that are vulnerable to Spectre v2, it is up to
software to flush the link stack (return address stack), in order to
protect against Spectre-RSB.

When exiting from a guest we do some house keeping and then
potentially exit to C code which is several stack frames deep in the
host kernel. We will then execute a series of returns without
preceeding calls, opening up the possiblity that the guest could have
poisoned the link stack, and direct speculative execution of the host
to a gadget of some sort.

To prevent this we add a flush of the link stack on exit from a guest.

<content type='text'>
commit 39e72bf96f5847ba87cc5bd7a3ce0fed813dc9ad upstream.

In commit ee13cb249fab ("powerpc/64s: Add support for software count
cache flush"), I added support for software to flush the count
cache (indirect branch cache) on context switch if firmware told us
that was the required mitigation for Spectre v2.

As part of that code we also added a software flush of the link
stack (return address stack), which protects against Spectre-RSB
between user processes.

That is all correct for CPUs that activate that mitigation, which is
currently Power9 Nimbus DD2.3.

What I got wrong is that on older CPUs, where firmware has disabled
the count cache, we also need to flush the link stack on context
switch.

To fix it we create a new feature bit which is not set by firmware,
which tells us we need to flush the link stack. We set that when
firmware tells us that either of the existing Spectre v2 mitigations
are enabled.

Then we adjust the patching code so that if we see that feature bit we
enable the link stack flush. If we're also told to flush the count
cache in software then we fall through and do that also.

On the older CPUs we don't need to do do the software count cache
flush, firmware has disabled it, so in that case we patch in an early
return after the link stack flush.

The naming of some of the functions is awkward after this patch,
because they're called "count cache" but they also do link stack. But
we'll fix that up in a later commit to ease backporting.

This is the fix for CVE-2019-18660.

The ultravisor will do an integrity check of the kernel image but we
relocated it so the check will fail. Restore the original image by
relocating it back to the kernel virtual base address.

This works because during build vmlinux is linked with an expected
virtual runtime address of KERNELBASE.

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "An assortment of fixes that were either missed by me, or didn't arrive
  quite in time for the first v5.4 pull.

   - Most notable is a fix for an issue with tlbie (broadcast TLB
     invalidation) on Power9, when using the Radix MMU. The tlbie can
     race with an mtpid (move to PID register, essentially MMU context
     switch) on another thread of the core, which can cause stores to
     continue to go to a page after it's unmapped.

   - A fix in our KVM code to add a missing barrier, the lack of which
     has been observed to cause missed IPIs and subsequently stuck CPUs
     in the host.

   - A change to the way we initialise PCR (Processor Compatibility
     Register) to make it forward compatible with future CPUs.

   - On some older PowerVM systems our H_BLOCK_REMOVE support could
     oops, fix it to detect such systems and fallback to the old
     invalidation method.

   - A fix for an oops seen on some machines when using KASAN on 32-bit.

   - A handful of other minor fixes, and two new selftests.

  Thanks to: Alistair Popple, Aneesh Kumar K.V, Christophe Leroy,
  Gustavo Romero, Joel Stanley, Jordan Niethe, Laurent Dufour, Michael
  Roth, Oliver O'Halloran"
