<title>ACPI: video: Force backlight native for more TongFang devices</title>

commit 3dbc80a3e4c55c4a5b89ef207bed7b7de36157b4 upstream.

This commit is very different from the upstream commit! It fixes the same
issue by adding more quirks, rather then the general fix from the 6.1
kernel, because the general fix from the 6.1 kernel is part of a larger
refactoring of the backlight code which is not suitable for the stable
series.

As described in "ACPI: video: Drop NL5x?U, PF4NU1F and PF5?U??
acpi_backlight=native quirks" (10212754a0d2) the upstream commit "ACPI:
video: Make backlight class device registration a separate step (v2)"
(3dbc80a3e4c5) makes these quirks unnecessary. However as mentioned in this
bugtracker ticket https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215683#c17
the upstream fix is part of a larger patchset that is overall too complex
for stable.

The TongFang GKxNRxx, GMxNGxx, GMxZGxx, and GMxRGxx / TUXEDO
Stellaris/Polaris Gen 1-4, have the same problem as the Clevo NL5xRU and
NL5xNU / TUXEDO Aura 15 Gen1 and Gen2:
They have a working native and video interface for screen backlight.
However the default detection mechanism first registers the video interface
before unregistering it again and switching to the native interface during
boot. This results in a dangling SBIOS request for backlight change for
some reason, causing the backlight to switch to ~2% once per boot on the
first power cord connect or disconnect event. Setting the native interface
explicitly circumvents this buggy behaviour by avoiding the unregistering
process.

[ Upstream commit f6ec01da40e4139b41179f046044ee7c4f6370dc ]

If there is no user space consumer of extlog_mem trace records, then
Linux properly handles multiple error records in an ELOG block

	extlog_print()
	  print_extlog_rcd()
	    __print_extlog_rcd()
	      cper_estatus_print()
		apei_estatus_for_each_section()

But the other code path hard codes looking for a single record to
output a trace record.

Fix by using the same apei_estatus_for_each_section() iterator
to step over all records.

[ Upstream commit 018d6711c26e4bd26e20a819fcc7f8ab902608f3 ]

Dell Inspiron 14 2-in-1 has two ACPI nodes under GPP1 both with _ADR of
0, both without _HID.  It's ambiguous which the kernel should take, but
it seems to take "DEV0".  Unfortunately "DEV0" is missing the device
property `StorageD3Enable` which is present on "NVME".

To avoid this causing problems for suspend, add a quirk for this system
to behave like `StorageD3Enable` property was found.

[ Upstream commit 211391bf04b3c74e250c566eeff9cf808156c693 ]

On a Packard Bell Dot SC (Intel Atom N2600 model) there is a FPDT table
which contains invalid physical addresses, with high bits set which fall
outside the range of the CPU-s supported physical address range.

Calling acpi_os_map_memory() on such an invalid phys address leads to
the below WARN_ON in ioremap triggering resulting in an oops/stacktrace.

Add code to verify the physical address before calling acpi_os_map_memory()
to fix / avoid the oops.

[ Upstream commit 574160b8548deff8b80b174f03201e94ab8431e2 ]

Toshiba Satellite Z830 needs the quirk video_disable_backlight_sysfs_if
for proper backlight control after suspend/resume cycles.

Toshiba Portege Z830 is simply the same laptop rebranded for certain
markets (I looked through the manual to other language sections to confirm
this) and thus also needs this quirk.

Thanks to Hans de Goede for suggesting this fix.

<title>ACPI: APEI: do not add task_work to kernel thread to avoid memory leak</title>

[ Upstream commit 415fed694fe11395df56e05022d6e7cee1d39dd3 ]

If an error is detected as a result of user-space process accessing a
corrupt memory location, the CPU may take an abort. Then the platform
firmware reports kernel via NMI like notifications, e.g. NOTIFY_SEA,
NOTIFY_SOFTWARE_DELEGATED, etc.

For NMI like notifications, commit 7f17b4a121d0 ("ACPI: APEI: Kick the
memory_failure() queue for synchronous errors") keep track of whether
memory_failure() work was queued, and make task_work pending to flush out
the queue so that the work is processed before return to user-space.

The code use init_mm to check whether the error occurs in user space:

    if (current-&gt;mm != &amp;init_mm)

The condition is always true, becase _nobody_ ever has "init_mm" as a real
VM any more.

In addition to abort, errors can also be signaled as asynchronous
exceptions, such as interrupt and SError. In such case, the interrupted
current process could be any kind of thread. When a kernel thread is
interrupted, the work ghes_kick_task_work deferred to task_work will never
be processed because entry_handler returns to call ret_to_kernel() instead
of ret_to_user(). Consequently, the estatus_node alloced from
ghes_estatus_pool in ghes_in_nmi_queue_one_entry() will not be freed.
After around 200 allocations in our platform, the ghes_estatus_pool will
run of memory and ghes_in_nmi_queue_one_entry() returns ENOMEM. As a
result, the event failed to be processed.

    sdei: event 805 on CPU 113 failed with error: -2

Finally, a lot of unhandled events may cause platform firmware to exceed
some threshold and reboot.

The condition should generally just do

    if (current-&gt;mm)

as described in active_mm.rst documentation.

Then if an asynchronous error is detected when a kernel thread is running,
(e.g. when detected by a background scrubber), do not add task_work to it
as the original patch intends to do.

[ Upstream commit 18729106c26fb97d4c9ae63ba7aba9889a058dc4 ]

Currently, mbox_client_txdone() is called from the PCC address space
handler and that expects the user the Tx state machine to be controlled
by the client which is not the case and the below warning is thrown:

  | PCCT: Client can't run the TX ticker

Let the controller run the state machine and the end of Tx can be
acknowledge by calling mbox_chan_txdone() instead.

[ Upstream commit 91cefefb699120efd0a5ba345d12626b688f86ce ]

Currently, the function waiting for completion of mailbox operation is
'wait_for_completion()'.  The PCC method will be permanently blocked if
this mailbox message fails to execute. So this patch replaces it with
'wait_for_completion_timeout()'. And set the timeout interval to an
arbitrary retries on top of nominal to prevent the remote processor is
slow to respond to PCC commands.
