commit d72cca1eee5b26e313da2a380d4862924e271031 upstream.

One of the side effects of deferred probe is that some drivers which
used to be probed before initcalls completed are now happening slightly
later. This causes two problems.
- If a console driver gets deferred, then it may not be ready when
  userspace starts. For example, if a uart depends on pinctrl, then the
  uart will get deferred and /dev/console will not be available
- __init sections will be discarded before built-in drivers are probed.
  Strictly speaking, __init functions should not be called in a drivers
  __probe path, but there are a lot of drivers (console stuff again)
  that do anyway. In the past it was perfectly safe to do so because all
  built-in drivers got probed before the end of initcalls.

This patch fixes the problem by forcing the first pass of the deferred
list to complete at late_initcall time. This is late enough to catch the
drivers that are known to have the above issues.

<title>Driver core: treat unregistered bus_types as having no devices</title>

commit 4fa3e78be7e985ca814ce2aa0c09cbee404efcf7 upstream.

A bus_type has a list of devices (klist_devices), but the list and the
subsys_private structure that contains it are not initialized until the
bus_type is registered with bus_register().

The panic/reboot path has fixups that look up devices in pci_bus_type.  If
we panic before registering pci_bus_type, the bus_type exists but the list
does not, so mach_reboot_fixups() trips over a null pointer and panics
again:

    mach_reboot_fixups
      pci_get_device
        ..
          bus_find_device(&amp;pci_bus_type, ...)
            bus-&gt;p is NULL

Joonsoo reported a problem when panicking before PCI was initialized.
I think this patch should be sufficient to replace the patch he posted
here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/28/75 ("[PATCH] x86, reboot: skip
reboot_fixups in early boot phase")

commit 4adf07fba3bd64472921a01aae0e116f9f948b77 upstream.

If the requested firmware file size is 0 bytes in the filesytem, we
will try to vmalloc(0), which causes a warning:

  vmalloc: allocation failure: 0 bytes
  kworker/1:1: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0xd2
    __vmalloc_node_range+0x164/0x208

    process_one_work+0x1d0/0x750
    worker_thread+0x184/0x4ac
    kthread+0xb4/0xc0

To fix this, check whether the file size is less than or equal to zero
in fw_read_file_contents().

commit db04328c167ff8e7c57f4a3532214aeada3a82fd upstream.

If count is less than the size of a register then we may hit integer
wraparound when trying to move backwards to check if we're still in
the buffer. Instead move the position forwards to check if it's still
in the buffer, we are unlikely to be able to allocate a buffer
sufficiently big to overflow here.

<title>PM: Move disabling/enabling runtime PM to late suspend/early resume</title>

commit 9f6d8f6ab26b42620a914d67f29822f9bba90233 upstream.

Currently, the PM core disables runtime PM for all devices right
after executing subsystem/driver .suspend() callbacks for them
and re-enables it right before executing subsystem/driver .resume()
callbacks for them.  This may lead to problems when there are
two devices such that the .suspend() callback executed for one of
them depends on runtime PM working for the other.  In that case,
if runtime PM has already been disabled for the second device,
the first one's .suspend() won't work correctly (and analogously
for resume).

To make those issues go away, make the PM core disable runtime PM
for devices right before executing subsystem/driver .suspend_late()
callbacks for them and enable runtime PM for them right after
executing subsystem/driver .resume_early() callbacks for them.  This
way the potential conflitcs between .suspend_late()/.resume_early()
and their runtime PM counterparts are still prevented from happening,
but the subtle ordering issues related to disabling/enabling runtime
PM for devices during system suspend/resume are much easier to avoid.

commit bd9eb7fbe69111ea0ff1f999ef4a5f26d223d1d5 upstream.

There is one race that both request_firmware() with the same
firmware name.

The race scenerio is as below:
CPU1                                                  CPU2
request_firmware() --&gt;

_request_firmware_cleanup is called --&gt;               _request_firmware_prepare --&gt;
release_firmware ---&gt;                                 fw_lookup_and_allocate_buf --&gt;
                                                      spin_lock(&amp;fwc-&gt;lock)
...                                                   __fw_lookup_buf() return true
fw_free_buf() will be called --&gt;                      ...
kref_put --&gt;
decrease the refcount to 0
                                                      kref_get(&amp;tmp-&gt;ref) ==&gt; it will trigger warning
                                                                              due to refcount == 0
__fw_free_buf() --&gt;
...                                                   spin_unlock(&amp;fwc-&gt;lock)
spin_lock(&amp;fwc-&gt;lock)
list_del(&amp;buf-&gt;list)

kfree(buf)
                                                      After that, the freed buf will be used.

The key race is decreasing refcount to 0 and list_del is not protected together by
fwc-&gt;lock, and it is possible another thread try to get it between refcount==0
and list_del.

Fix it here to protect it together.

<title>firmware loader: Fix the race FW_STATUS_DONE is followed by class_timeout</title>

commit ce2fcbd99cef580623116bb33531dbc3e6f690b0 upstream.

There is a race as below when calling request_firmware():
CPU1                                   CPU2
write 0 &gt; loading
mutex_lock(&amp;fw_lock)
...
set_bit FW_STATUS_DONE                 class_timeout is coming
                                       set_bit FW_STATUS_ABORT
complete_all &amp;completion
...
mutex_unlock(&amp;fw_lock)

In this time, the bit FW_STATUS_DONE and FW_STATUS_ABORT are set,
and request_firmware() will return failure due to condition in
_request_firmware_load():
	if (!buf-&gt;size || test_bit(FW_STATUS_ABORT, &amp;buf-&gt;status))
		retval = -ENOENT;

But from the above scenerio, it should be a successful requesting.
So we need judge if the bit FW_STATUS_DONE is already set before
calling fw_load_abort() in timeout function.

As Ming's proposal, we need change the timer into sched_work to
benefit from using &amp;fw_lock mutex also.

commit ce2fcbd99cef580623116bb33531dbc3e6f690b0 upstream.

There is a race as below when calling request_firmware():
CPU1                                   CPU2
write 0 &gt; loading
mutex_lock(&amp;fw_lock)
...
set_bit FW_STATUS_DONE                 class_timeout is coming
                                       set_bit FW_STATUS_ABORT
complete_all &amp;completion
...
mutex_unlock(&amp;fw_lock)

In this time, the bit FW_STATUS_DONE and FW_STATUS_ABORT are set,
and request_firmware() will return failure due to condition in
_request_firmware_load():
	if (!buf-&gt;size || test_bit(FW_STATUS_ABORT, &amp;buf-&gt;status))
		retval = -ENOENT;

But from the above scenerio, it should be a successful requesting.
So we need judge if the bit FW_STATUS_DONE is already set before
calling fw_load_abort() in timeout function.

As Ming's proposal, we need change the timer into sched_work to

<title>PM / QoS: fix wrong error-checking condition</title>

dev_pm_qos_add_request() can return 0, 1, or a negative error code,
therefore the correct error test is "if (error &lt; 0)." Checking just for
non-zero return code leads to erroneous setting of the req-&gt;dev pointer
to NULL, which then leads to a repeated call to
dev_pm_qos_add_ancestor_request() in st1232_ts_irq_handler(). This in turn
leads to an Oops, when the I2C host adapter is unloaded and reloaded again
because of the inconsistent state of its QoS request list.

Pull sparc fixes from David Miller:
 "Several build/bug fixes for sparc, including:

  1) Configuring a mix of static vs.  modular sparc64 crypto modules
     didn't work, remove an ill-conceived attempt to only have to build
     the device match table for these drivers once to fix the problem.

     Reported by Meelis Roos.

  2) Make the montgomery multiple/square and mpmul instructions actually
     usable in 32-bit tasks.  Essentially this involves providing 32-bit
     userspace with a way to use a 64-bit stack when it needs to.

  3) Our sparc64 atomic backoffs don't yield cpu strands properly on
     Niagara chips.  Use pause instruction when available to achieve
     this, otherwise use a benign instruction we know blocks the strand
     for some time.

  4) Wire up kcmp

  5) Fix the build of various drivers by removing the unnecessary
     blocking of OF_GPIO when SPARC.

  6) Fix unintended regression wherein of_address_to_resource stopped
     being provided.  Fix from Andreas Larsson.

  7) Fix NULL dereference in leon_handle_ext_irq(), also from Andreas
     Larsson."

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc:
  sparc64: Fix build with mix of modular vs. non-modular crypto drivers.
  sparc: Support atomic64_dec_if_positive properly.
  of/address: sparc: Declare of_address_to_resource() as an extern function for sparc again
  sparc32, leon: Check for existent irq_map entry in leon_handle_ext_irq
  sparc: Add sparc support for platform_get_irq()
  sparc: Allow OF_GPIO on sparc.
  qlogicpti: Fix build warning.
  sparc: Wire up sys_kcmp.
  sparc64: Improvde documentation and readability of atomic backoff code.
  sparc64: Use pause instruction when available.
  sparc64: Fix cpu strand yielding.
  sparc64: Make montmul/montsqr/mpmul usable in 32-bit threads.

This adds sparc support for platform_get_irq that in the normal case use
platform_get_resource() to get an irq. This standard approach fails for sparc as
there are no resources of type IORESOURCE_IRQ for irqs for sparc.

Cross platform drivers can then use this standard platform function and work on
sparc instead of having to have a special case for sparc.
