Resolve this problem by disabling each THRMn comparator when handling
the associated THRMn interrupt and by disabling the TAU entirely when
updating THRMn thresholds.

[ Upstream commit 5e3119e15fed5b9a9a7e528665ff098a4a8dbdbc ]

According to Freescale's documentation, MPC74XX processors have an
erratum that prevents the TAU interrupt from working, so don't try to
use it when running on those processors.

[ Upstream commit 420ab2bc7544d978a5d0762ee736412fe9c796ab ]

The commentary at the call site seems to disagree with the code. The
conditional prevents calling set_thresholds() via the exception handler,
which appears to crash. Perhaps that's because it immediately triggers
another TAU exception. Anyway, calling set_thresholds() from TAUupdate()
is redundant because tau_timeout() does so.

[ Upstream commit 66943005cc41f48e4d05614e8f76c0ca1812f0fd ]

According to the MPC750 Users Manual, the SITV value in Thermal
Management Register 3 is 13 bits long. The present code calculates the
SITV value as 60 * 500 cycles. This would overflow to give 10 us on
a 500 MHz CPU rather than the intended 60 us. (But according to the
Microprocessor Datasheet, there is also a factor of 266 that has to be
applied to this value on certain parts i.e. speed sort above 266 MHz.)
Always use the maximum cycle count, as recommended by the Datasheet.

System Reset and Machine Check interrupts that are not recoverable due
to being nested or interrupting when RI=0 currently panic. This is not

<title>powerpc/eeh: Only dump stack once if an MMIO loop is detected</title>

[ Upstream commit 4e0942c0302b5ad76b228b1a7b8c09f658a1d58a ]

Many drivers don't check for errors when they get a 0xFFs response from an
MMIO load. As a result after an EEH event occurs a driver can get stuck in
a polling loop unless it some kind of internal timeout logic.

Currently EEH tries to detect and report stuck drivers by dumping a stack
trace after eeh_dev_check_failure() is called EEH_MAX_FAILS times on an
already frozen PE. The value of EEH_MAX_FAILS was chosen so that a dump
would occur every few seconds if the driver was spinning in a loop. This
results in a lot of spurious stack traces in the kernel log.

Fix this by limiting it to printing one stack trace for each PE freeze. If
the driver is truely stuck the kernel's hung task detector is better suited
to reporting the probelm anyway.

commit 437ef802e0adc9f162a95213a3488e8646e5fc03 upstream.

There are 2 problems with it:
  1. "&lt;" vs expected "&lt;&lt;"
  2. the shift number is an IOMMU page number mask, not an address
  mask as the IOMMU page shift is missing.

This did not hit us before f1565c24b596 ("powerpc: use the generic
dma_ops_bypass mode") because we had additional code to handle bypass
mask so this chunk (almost?) never executed.However there were
reports that aacraid does not work with "iommu=nobypass".

After f1565c24b596, aacraid (and probably others which call
dma_get_required_mask() before setting the mask) was unable to enable
64bit DMA and fall back to using IOMMU which was known not to work,
one of the problems is double free of an IOMMU page.

This fixes DMA for aacraid, both with and without "iommu=nobypass" in
the kernel command line. Verified with "stress-ng -d 4".

<title>powerpc/64s: Don't init FSCR_DSCR in __init_FSCR()</title>

commit 0828137e8f16721842468e33df0460044a0c588b upstream.

__init_FSCR() was added originally in commit 2468dcf641e4 ("powerpc:
Add support for context switching the TAR register") (Feb 2013), and
only set FSCR_TAR.

At that point FSCR (Facility Status and Control Register) was not
context switched, so the setting was permanent after boot.

Later we added initialisation of FSCR_DSCR to __init_FSCR(), in commit
54c9b2253d34 ("powerpc: Set DSCR bit in FSCR setup") (Mar 2013), again
that was permanent after boot.

Then commit 2517617e0de6 ("powerpc: Fix context switch DSCR on
POWER8") (Aug 2013) added a limited context switch of FSCR, just the
FSCR_DSCR bit was context switched based on thread.dscr_inherit. That
commit said "This clears the H/FSCR DSCR bit initially", but it
didn't, it left the initialisation of FSCR_DSCR in __init_FSCR().
However the initial context switch from init_task to pid 1 would clear
FSCR_DSCR because thread.dscr_inherit was 0.

That commit also introduced the requirement that FSCR_DSCR be clear
for user processes, so that we can take the facility unavailable
interrupt in order to manage dscr_inherit.

Then in commit 152d523e6307 ("powerpc: Create context switch helpers
save_sprs() and restore_sprs()") (Dec 2015) FSCR was added to
thread_struct. However it still wasn't fully context switched, we just
took the existing value and set FSCR_DSCR if the new thread had
dscr_inherit set. FSCR was still initialised at boot to FSCR_DSCR |
FSCR_TAR, but that value was not propagated into the thread_struct, so
the initial context switch set FSCR_DSCR back to 0.

Finally commit b57bd2de8c6c ("powerpc: Improve FSCR init and context
switching") (Jun 2016) added a full context switch of the FSCR, and
added an initialisation of init_task.thread.fscr to FSCR_TAR |
FSCR_EBB, but omitted FSCR_DSCR.

The end result is that swapper runs with FSCR_DSCR set because of the
initialisation in __init_FSCR(), but no other processes do, they use
the value from init_task.thread.fscr.

Having FSCR_DSCR set for swapper allows it to access SPR 3 from
userspace, but swapper never runs userspace, so it has no useful
effect. It's also confusing to have the value initialised in two
places to two different values.

So remove FSCR_DSCR from __init_FSCR(), this at least gets us to the
point where there's a single value of FSCR, even if it's still set in
two places.
