[ Upstream commit 865e3845eeaa21e9a62abc1361644e67124f1ec0 ]

This function is expected to return a boolean value, which should be
true on success and false on failure.

<title>arm64: tls: Fix context-switching of tpidrro_el0 when kpti is enabled</title>

commit 67ab51cbdfee02ef07fb9d7d14cc0bf6cb5a5e5c upstream.

Commit 18011eac28c7 ("arm64: tls: Avoid unconditional zeroing of
tpidrro_el0 for native tasks") tried to optimise the context switching
of tpidrro_el0 by eliding the clearing of the register when switching
to a native task with kpti enabled, on the erroneous assumption that
the kpti trampoline entry code would already have taken care of the
write.

Although the kpti trampoline does zero the register on entry from a
native task, the check in tls_thread_switch() is on the *next* task and
so we can end up leaving a stale, non-zero value in the register if the
previous task was 32-bit.

Drop the broken optimisation and zero tpidrro_el0 unconditionally when
switching to a native 64-bit task.

<title>sh: cpuinfo: Fix a warning for CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK</title>

<id>8fbb57eabfc8ae67115cb47f904614c99d626a89</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 3c891f7c6a4e90bb1199497552f24b26e46383bc upstream.

When CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK and CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS are selected,
cpu_max_bits_warn() generates a runtime warning similar as below when
showing /proc/cpuinfo. Fix this by using nr_cpu_ids (the runtime limit)
instead of NR_CPUS to iterate CPUs.

commit 51b39d741970742a5c41136241a9c48ac607cf82 upstream.

The drvdata is not available in release. Let's just use container_of()
to get the vector_device instance. Otherwise, removing a vector device
will result in a crash:

commit 51b39d741970742a5c41136241a9c48ac607cf82 upstream.

The drvdata is not available in release. Let's just use container_of()
to get the vector_device instance. Otherwise, removing a vector device
will result in a crash:

The drvdata is not available in release. Let's just use container_of()

[ Upstream commit 63a24cf8cc330e5a68ebd2e20ae200096974c475 ]

When CONFIG_FEC is set (due to COMPILE_TEST) along with
CONFIG_M54xx, coldfire/device.c has compile errors due to
missing MCFEC_* and MCF_IRQ_FEC_* symbols.

Make the whole FEC blocks dependent on having the HW macros
defined, rather than on CONFIG_FEC itself.

This fix is very similar to commit e6e1e7b19fa1 ("m68k: coldfire/device.c: only build for MCF_EDMA when h/w macros are defined")

Fix a typo in the CONFIG_M5441x preprocessor condition, where the GPIO
register offset was incorrectly set to 8 instead of 0. This prevented
proper GPIO configuration for m5441x targets.

[ Upstream commit 0161bd38c24312853ed5ae9a425a1c41c4ac674a ]

On powerpc64 as shown below by readelf, vDSO functions symbols have
type NOTYPE.

    47: 0000000000000524    84 NOTYPE  GLOBAL DEFAULT    8 __kernel_clock_getres

To overcome that, commit ba83b3239e65 ("selftests: vDSO: fix vDSO
symbols lookup for powerpc64") was applied to have selftests also
look for NOTYPE symbols, but the correct fix should be to flag VDSO
entry points as functions.

The original commit that brought VDSO support into powerpc/64 has the
following explanation:

    Note that the symbols exposed by the vDSO aren't "normal" function symbols, apps
    can't be expected to link against them directly, the vDSO's are both seen
    as if they were linked at 0 and the symbols just contain offsets to the
    various functions.  This is done on purpose to avoid a relocation step
    (ppc64 functions normally have descriptors with abs addresses in them).
    When glibc uses those functions, it's expected to use it's own trampolines
    that know how to reach them.

The descriptors it's talking about are the OPD function descriptors
used on ABI v1 (big endian). But it would be more correct for a text
symbol to have type function, even if there's no function descriptor
for it.

glibc has a special case already for handling the VDSO symbols which
creates a fake opd pointing at the kernel symbol. So changing the VDSO
symbol type to function shouldn't affect that.

For ABI v2, there is no function descriptors and VDSO functions can
safely have function type.

So lets flag VDSO entry points as functions and revert the
selftest change.
