[ Upstream commit bac717171971176b78c72d15a8b6961764ab197f ]

dtc points out that the interrupts for some devices are not parsable:

picoxcell-pc3x2.dtsi:45.19-49.5: Warning (interrupts_property): /paxi/gem@30000: Missing interrupt-parent
picoxcell-pc3x2.dtsi:51.21-55.5: Warning (interrupts_property): /paxi/dmac@40000: Missing interrupt-parent
picoxcell-pc3x2.dtsi:57.21-61.5: Warning (interrupts_property): /paxi/dmac@50000: Missing interrupt-parent
picoxcell-pc3x2.dtsi:233.21-237.5: Warning (interrupts_property): /rwid-axi/axi2pico@c0000000: Missing interrupt-parent

There are two VIC instances, so it's not clear which one needs to be
used. I found the BSP sources that reference VIC0, so use that:

Provide copy_user_page() in &lt;asm/page.h&gt;.

[ Upstream commit 0cfccb3c04934cdef42ae26042139f16e805b5f7 ]

The top-level boot_targets (uImage and uImage.*) should be phony
targets. They just let Kbuild descend into arch/arc/boot/ and create
files there.

If a file exists in the top directory with the same name, the boot
image will not be created.

You can confirm it by the following steps:

  $ export CROSS_COMPILE=&lt;your-arc-compiler-prefix&gt;
  $ make -s ARCH=arc defconfig all   # vmlinux will be built
  $ touch uImage.gz
  $ make ARCH=arc uImage.gz
  CALL    scripts/atomic/check-atomics.sh
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh
  CHK     include/generated/compile.h
  # arch/arc/boot/uImage.gz is not created

Specify the targets as PHONY to fix this.

<title>MIPS: relocatable: fix possible boot hangup with KASLR enabled</title>

commit 69e976831cd53f9ba304fd20305b2025ecc78eab upstream.

LLVM-built Linux triggered a boot hangup with KASLR enabled.

arch/mips/kernel/relocate.c:get_random_boot() uses linux_banner,
which is a string constant, as a random seed, but accesses it
as an array of unsigned long (in rotate_xor()).
When the address of linux_banner is not aligned to sizeof(long),
such access emits unaligned access exception and hangs the kernel.

Use PTR_ALIGN() to align input address to sizeof(long) and also
align down the input length to prevent possible access-beyond-end.

commit 4d4f9c1a17a3480f8fe523673f7232b254d724b7 upstream.

The compressed payload is not necesarily 4-byte aligned, at least when
compiling with Clang. In that case, the 4-byte value appended to the
compressed payload that corresponds to the uncompressed kernel image
size must be read using get_unaligned_le32().

This fixes Clang-built kernels not booting on MIPS (tested on a Ingenic
JZ4770 board).

commit 2a5f1b67ec577fb1544b563086e0377f095f88e2 upstream.

We reset the guest's view of PMCR_EL0 unconditionally, based on
the host's view of this register. It is however legal for an
implementation not to provide any PMU, resulting in an UNDEF.

The obvious fix is to skip the reset of this shadow register
when no PMU is available, sidestepping the issue entirely.
If no PMU is available, the guest is not able to request
a virtual PMU anyway, so not doing nothing is the right thing
to do!

It is unlikely that this bug can hit any HW implementation
though, as they all provide a PMU. It has been found using nested
virt with the host KVM not implementing the PMU itself.

commit ec76c2eea903947202098090bbe07a739b5246e9 upstream.

On the GTA04A5 od-&gt;_driver_status was not set to BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER
during probe of the second mmc used for wifi. Therefore
omap_device_late_idle idled the device during probing causing oopses when
accessing the registers.

It was not set because od-&gt;_state was set to OMAP_DEVICE_STATE_IDLE
in the notifier callback. Therefore set od-&gt;_driver_status also in that
case.

This came apparent after commit 21b2cec61c04 ("mmc: Set
PROBE_PREFER_ASYNCHRONOUS for drivers that existed in v4.4") causing this
oops:

[ Upstream commit d85be8a49e733dcd23674aa6202870d54bf5600d ]

The placeholder for instruction selection should use the second
argument's operand, which is %1, not %0. This could generate incorrect
assembly code if the memory addressing of operand %0 is a different
form from that of operand %1.

Also remove the %Un placeholder because having %Un placeholders
for two operands which are based on the same local var (ptep) doesn't
make much sense. By the way, it doesn't change the current behaviour
because "&lt;&gt;" constraint is missing for the associated "=m".

<title>x86/mtrr: Correct the range check before performing MTRR type lookups</title>

commit cb7f4a8b1fb426a175d1708f05581939c61329d4 upstream.

In mtrr_type_lookup(), if the input memory address region is not in the
MTRR, over 4GB, and not over the top of memory, a write-back attribute
is returned. These condition checks are for ensuring the input memory
address region is actually mapped to the physical memory.

However, if the end address is just aligned with the top of memory,
the condition check treats the address is over the top of memory, and
write-back attribute is not returned.

And this hits in a real use case with NVDIMM: the nd_pmem module tries
to map NVDIMMs as cacheable memories when NVDIMMs are connected. If a
NVDIMM is the last of the DIMMs, the performance of this NVDIMM becomes
very low since it is aligned with the top of memory and its memory type
is uncached-minus.

Move the input end address change to inclusive up into
mtrr_type_lookup(), before checking for the top of memory in either
mtrr_type_lookup_{variable,fixed}() helpers.

commit d1c5246e08eb64991001d97a3bd119c93edbc79a upstream.

Commit

  28ee90fe6048 ("x86/mm: implement free pmd/pte page interfaces")

introduced a new location where a pmd was released, but neglected to
run the pmd page destructor. In fact, this happened previously for a
different pmd release path and was fixed by commit:

  c283610e44ec ("x86, mm: do not leak page-&gt;ptl for pmd page tables").

This issue was hidden until recently because the failure mode is silent,
but commit:

  b2b29d6d0119 ("mm: account PMD tables like PTE tables")

turns the failure mode into this signature:

 BUG: Bad page state in process lt-pmem-ns  pfn:15943d

Given this is a repeat occurrence it seemed prudent to look for other
places where this destructor might be missing and whether a better
helper is needed. try_to_free_pmd_page() looks like a candidate, but
testing with setting up and tearing down pmd mappings via the dax unit
tests is thus far not triggering the failure.

As for a better helper pmd_free() is close, but it is a messy fit
due to requiring an @mm arg. Also, ___pmd_free_tlb() wants to call
paravirt_tlb_remove_table() instead of free_page(), so open-coded
pgtable_pmd_page_dtor() seems the best way forward for now.

Debugged together with Matthew Wilcox &lt;willy@infradead.org&gt;.
