commit a32305bf90a2ae0e6a9a93370c7616565f75e15a upstream.

powerpc defines various machine-specific routines for handling
pci_set_dma_mask().  The routines for machine "PowerNV" may neglect
to set dev-&gt;dma_mask.  This could confuse anyone (e.g. drivers) that
consult dev-&gt;dma_mask to find the current mask.  Set the dma_mask in
the PowerNV leaf routine.

commit 7340056567e32b2c9d3554eb146e1977c93da116 upstream.

Commit bcdde7e made __sysfs_remove_dir() recursive and introduced a BUG_ON
during PHB removal while attempting to delete the power managment attribute
group of the bus. This is a result of tearing the bridge and bus devices down
out of order in remove_phb_dynamic. Since, the the bus resides below the bridge
in the sysfs device tree it should be torn down first.

This patch simply moves the device_unregister call for the PHB bridge device
after the device_unregister call for the PHB bus.

commit 9e5c6e5a3be0b2e17ff61b9b74adef4a2c9e6934 upstream.

pci_get_slot() is called with hold of PCI bus semaphore and it's not
safe to be called in interrupt context. However, we possibly checks
EEH error and calls the function in interrupt context. To avoid using
pci_get_slot(), we turn into device tree for fetching location code.
Otherwise, we might run into WARN_ON() as following messages indicate:

<title>KVM: PPC: Book3S: Fix LPCR one_reg interface</title>

commit a0840240c0c6bcbac8f0f5db11f95c19aaf9b52f upstream.

Unfortunately, the LPCR got defined as a 32-bit register in the
one_reg interface.  This is unfortunate because KVM allows userspace
to control the DPFD (default prefetch depth) field, which is in the
upper 32 bits.  The result is that DPFD always get set to 0, which
reduces performance in the guest.

We can't just change KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR to be a 64-bit register ID,
since that would break existing userspace binaries.  Instead we define
a new KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR_64 id which is 64-bit.  Userspace can still use
the old KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR id, but it now only modifies those fields in
the bottom 32 bits that userspace can modify (ILE, TC and AIL).
If userspace uses the new KVM_REG_PPC_LPCR_64 id, it can modify DPFD
as well.

The function rtas_flash_firmware passes the address of a data structure,
flash_block_list, when making the update-flash-64-and-reboot rtas call.
While the endianness of the address is handled correctly, the endianness
of the data is not.  This patch ensures that the data in flash_block_list
is big endian when passed to rtas on little endian hosts.

In the recent commit b50a6c584bb4 "Clear MMCR2 when enabling PMU", I
screwed up the handling of MMCR2 for tasks using EBB.

We must make sure we set MMCR2 *before* ebb_switch_in(), otherwise we
overwrite the value of MMCR2 that userspace may have written. That
potentially breaks a task that uses EBB and manually uses MMCR2 for
event freezing.

potentially breaks a task that uses EBB and manually uses MMCR2 for
event freezing.

memmove may be called from module code copy_pages(btrfs), and it may
call memcpy, which may call back to C code, so it needs to use
_GLOBAL_TOC to set up r2 correctly.

This fixes following error when I tried to boot an le guest:
