commit 6c2f421174273de8f83cde4286d1c076d43a2d35 upstream.

Several core drivers and buses expect that driver_override is a
dynamically allocated memory thus later they can kfree() it.

However such assumption is not documented, there were in the past and
there are already users setting it to a string literal. This leads to
kfree() of static memory during device release (e.g. in error paths or
during unbind):

Provide a helper which clearly documents the usage of driver_override.
This will allow later to reuse the helper and reduce the amount of
duplicated code.

Convert the platform driver to use a new helper and make the
driver_override field const char (it is not modified by the core).

Done with:

$ spatch -sp-file sysfs_emit_dev.cocci --in-place --max-width=80 .

<title>drivers: base: Fix NULL pointer exception in __platform_driver_probe() if a driver developer is foolish</title>

[ Upstream commit 388bcc6ecc609fca1b4920de7dc3806c98ec535e ]

If platform bus driver registration is failed then, accessing
platform bus spin lock (&amp;drv-&gt;driver.bus-&gt;p-&gt;klist_drivers.k_lock)
in __platform_driver_probe() without verifying the return value
__platform_driver_register() can lead to NULL pointer exception.

So check the return value before attempting the spin lock.

One such example is below:

For a custom usecase, I have intentionally failed the platform bus
registration and I expected all the platform device/driver
registrations to fail gracefully. But I came across this panic
issue.

which should never happen.  If it does, the driver needs to be fixed.

<title>driver code: clarify and fix platform device DMA mask allocation</title>

commit e3a36eb6dfaeea8175c05d5915dcf0b939be6dab upstream.

This does three inter-related things to clarify the usage of the
platform device dma_mask field. In the process, fix the bug introduced
by cdfee5623290 ("driver core: initialize a default DMA mask for
platform device") that caused Artem Tashkinov's laptop to not boot with
newer Fedora kernels.

This does:

 - First off, rename the field to "platform_dma_mask" to make it
   greppable.

   We have way too many different random fields called "dma_mask" in
   various data structures, where some of them are actual masks, and
   some of them are just pointers to the mask. And the structures all
   have pointers to each other, or embed each other inside themselves,
   and "pdev" sometimes means "platform device" and sometimes it means
   "PCI device".

   So to make it clear in the code when you actually use this new field,
   give it a unique name (it really should be something even more unique
   like "platform_device_dma_mask", since it's per platform device, not
   per platform, but that gets old really fast, and this is unique
   enough in context).

   To further clarify when the field gets used, initialize it when we
   actually start using it with the default value.

 - Then, use this field instead of the random one-off allocation in
   platform_device_register_full() that is now unnecessary since we now
   already have a perfectly fine allocation for it in the platform
   device structure.

 - The above then allows us to fix the actual bug, where the error path
   of platform_device_register_full() would unconditionally free the
   platform device DMA allocation with 'kfree()'.

   That kfree() was dont regardless of whether the allocation had been
   done earlier with the (now removed) kmalloc, or whether
   setup_pdev_dma_masks() had already been used and the dma_mask pointer
   pointed to the mask that was part of the platform device.

It seems most people never triggered the error path, or only triggered
it from a call chain that set an explicit pdevinfo-&gt;dma_mask value (and
thus caused the unnecessary allocation that was "cleaned up" in the
error path) before calling platform_device_register_full().

Robin Murphy points out that in Artem's case the wdat_wdt driver failed
in platform_device_add(), and that was the one that had called
platform_device_register_full() with pdevinfo.dma_mask = 0, and would
have caused that kfree() of pdev.dma_mask corrupting the heap.

A later unrelated kmalloc() then oopsed due to the heap corruption.

Currently the check that a u32 variable i is &gt;= 0 is always true because
the unsigned variable will never be negative, causing the loop to run
forever.  Fix this by changing the pre-decrement check to a zero check on
i followed by a decrement of i.

commit 492c88720d36eb662f9f10c1633f7726fbb07fc4 upstream.

platform_find_device_by_driver calls bus_find_device and passes
platform_match as the callback function. Casting the function to a
mismatching type trips indirect call Control-Flow Integrity (CFI) checking.

This change adds a callback function with the correct type and instead
of casting the function, explicitly casts the second parameter to struct
device_driver* as expected by platform_match.

Some drivers (e.g dwc3) first try to get an IRQ byname and then fall
back to the one at index 0. In this case we do not want the error(s)
printed by platform_get_irq_byname(). This commit adds a new
platform_get_irq_byname_optional(), which does not print errors, for this.

While at it also improve the kdoc text for platform_get_irq_byname() a bit.

 "Here is the big set of USB patches for 5.4-rc1.

  Two major chunks of code are moving out of the tree and into the
  staging directory, uwb and wusb (wireless USB support), because there
  are no devices that actually use this protocol anymore, and what we
  have today probably doesn't work at all given that the maintainers
  left many many years ago. So move it to staging where it will be
  removed in a few releases if no one screams.

  Other than that, lots of little things. The usual gadget and xhci and
  usb serial driver updates, along with a bunch of sysfs file cleanups
  due to the driver core changes to support that. Nothing really major,
  just constant forward progress.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

  staging directory, uwb and wusb (wireless USB support), because there
  are no devices that actually use this protocol anymore, and what we
  have today probably doesn't work at all given that the maintainers
  left many many years ago. So move it to staging where it will be
  removed in a few releases if no one screams.

  Other than that, lots of little things. The usual gadget and xhci and
  usb serial driver updates, along with a bunch of sysfs file cleanups
  due to the driver core changes to support that. Nothing really major,
  just constant forward progress.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"
