commit e148bd17f48bd17fca2f4f089ec879fa6e47e34c upstream.

emulate_step() uses a number of underlying kernel functions that were
initially not enabled for LE. This has been rectified since. So, fix
emulate_step() for LE for the corresponding instructions.

<title>MIPS: DEC: Avoid la pseudo-instruction in delay slots</title>

commit 3021773c7c3e75e20b693931a19362681e744ea9 upstream.

When expanding the la or dla pseudo-instruction in a delay slot the GNU
assembler will complain should the pseudo-instruction expand to multiple
actual instructions, since only the first of them will be in the delay
slot leading to the pseudo-instruction being only partially executed if
the branch is taken. Use of PTR_LA in the dec int-handler.S leads to
such warnings:

  arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S: Assembler messages:
  arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:149: Warning: macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions in a branch delay slot
  arch/mips/dec/int-handler.S:198: Warning: macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions in a branch delay slot

Avoid this by open coding the PTR_LA macros.

commit 23ca9b522383d3b9b7991d8586db30118992af4a upstream.

kernelci reports a failure of the ip28_defconfig build after upgrading its
gcc version:

arch/mips/sgi-ip22/Platform:29: *** gcc doesn't support needed option -mr10k-cache-barrier=store.  Stop.

The problem apparently is that the -mr10k-cache-barrier=store option is now
rejected for CPUs other than r10k. Explicitly including the CPU in the
check fixes this and is safe because both options were introduced in
gcc-4.4.

<title>MIPS: ip27: Disable qlge driver in defconfig</title>

commit b617649468390713db1515ea79fc772d2eb897a8 upstream.

One of the last remaining failures in kernelci.org is for a gcc bug:

drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_main.c:4819:1: error: insn does not satisfy its constraints:
drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_main.c:4819:1: internal compiler error: in extract_constrain_insn, at recog.c:2190

This is apparently broken in gcc-6 but fixed in gcc-7, and I cannot
reproduce the problem here. However, it is clear that ip27_defconfig
does not actually need this driver as the platform has only PCI-X but
not PCIe, and the qlge adapter in turn is PCIe-only.

The driver was originally enabled in 2010 along with lots of other
drivers.

<title>KVM: s390: Fix guest migration for huge guests resulting in panic</title>

commit 2e4d88009f57057df7672fa69a32b5224af54d37 upstream.

While we can technically not run huge page guests right now, we can
setup a guest with huge pages. Trying to migrate it will trigger a
VM_BUG_ON and, if the kernel is not configured to panic on a BUG, it
will happily try to work on non-existing page table entries.

With this patch, we always return "dirty" if we encounter a large page
when migrating. This at least fixes the immediate problem until we
have proper handling for both kind of pages.

commit 4920e3cf77347d7d7373552d4839e8d832321313 upstream.

The current implementation of setup_randomness uses the stack address
and therefore the pointer to the SYSIB 3.2.2 block as input data
address. Furthermore the length of the input data is the number of
virtual-machine description blocks which is typically one.

This means that typically a single zero byte is fed to
add_device_randomness.

Fix both of these and use the address of the first virtual machine
description block as input data address and also use the correct
length.

commit da8fd820f389a0e29080b14c61bf5cf1d8ef5ca1 upstream.

Commit bcfcbb6bae64 ("s390: add system information as device
randomness") intended to add some virtual machine specific information
to the randomness pool.

Unfortunately it uses the page allocator before it is ready to use. In
result the page allocator always returns NULL and the setup_randomness
function never adds anything to the randomness pool.

To fix this use memblock_alloc and memblock_free instead.

commit 4ab18701c66552944188dbcd0ce0012729baab84 upstream.

FDT tag parsing is not related to whether BLK_DEV_INITRD is configured
