commit f2b1cb39d5ccab090d8353788f186f7e7a1fffd4 upstream.

When building ARCH=riscv using clang with CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE and
CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS enabled, CONFIG_NR_CPUS &gt; 64, and the default value of
2 for CONFIG_NODES_SHIFT, there is a compiletime warning from the fortify
routines.

In this configuration, MAX_NUMNODES is 4.  clang unrolls the for loop in
setup_node_to_cpumask_map() past this, which triggers the fortify check
when accessing node_to_cpumask_map on the theoretical fifth loop iteration
because it would be an out of bounds write.

Make it clear to clang that nr_node_ids is bounded by MAX_NUMNODES due to
the logic in setup_nr_node_ids() by early returning in
setup_node_to_cpumask_map() should that condition be violated.

<title>PM: sleep: Unblock runtime PM when device prepare fails</title>

commit cb258d651d747a7f7063d40f145418bee562ceaf upstream.

device_prepare() blocks runtime PM for a device with runtime PM disabled
before invoking its system-sleep -&gt;prepare() callback. For a device that
has never enabled runtime PM, this changes dev-&gt;power.last_status from
RPM_INVALID to RPM_BLOCKED.

If the callback returns an error, dpm_prepare() does not move the device
to dpm_prepared_list. Consequently, the recovery path through
dpm_complete() never calls device_complete() for the failing device.

The error path drops the runtime PM usage reference, but does not clear
RPM_BLOCKED. A later legitimate pm_runtime_enable() then reports:

  Attempt to enable runtime PM when it is blocked

before clearing the stale state.

Call pm_runtime_unblock() on the prepare error path before dropping the
runtime PM reference, matching the cleanup performed by device_complete().

The issue was reproduced with a platform test device whose -&gt;prepare()
callback returns -EIO while runtime PM has never been enabled. Before
the fix, last_status remained RPM_BLOCKED after the failed suspend and
the first pm_runtime_enable() produced the warning above. With the fix,
last_status is restored to RPM_INVALID and the warning is absent.

<title>device property: fix infinite loop in fwnode_for_each_child_node()</title>

commit 1900692555826753adab8799a1a8d50bb1ee200c upstream.

When iterate over children of a fwnode that has a secondary fwnode,
fwnode_get_next_child_node() can enter an infinite loop if the secondary
fwnode has more than one child.

                       Parent        Child
      (Primary fwnode)   FWa:   {FWa1, FWa2, FWa3}
    (Secondary fwnode)   FWb:   {FWb1, FWb2}

In this case:

 ┌─&gt; fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWa1)
 │    - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWa1) returns FWa2
 │
 │   ...
 │
 │   fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWa3)
 │    - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWa3) returns NULL
 │    - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWb, get_next_child_node, FWa3) returns FWb1
 │
 │   fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWb1)
 │    - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWb1) returns FWa1
 └────┘

This cause fwnode_for_each_child_node() to loop indefinitely, reapeatedly
output {FWa1, FWa2, FWa3, FWb1, FWa1, ...}.

The root cause is that when the current child (FWb1) belongs to the
secondary fwnode, calling get_next_child_node() on the parimary fwnode
incorrectly returns the first child (FWa1) again instead of NULL.

Fix this by dynamically checking the parent fwnode of the current child
before calling get_next_child_node(). This approach follows the pattern
established in commit b5b41ab6b0c1 ("device property: Check
fwnode-&gt;secondary in fwnode_graph_get_next_endpoint()").

[ Upstream commit 00268f9452d2a0d660aa9c1bb0ca07a994af6a4f ]

regmap_sdw_mbq_poll_busy() decides whether to poll the Function Busy bit
by calling ctx-&gt;readable_reg(), which is a straight copy of
config-&gt;readable_reg. That callback is optional: regmap_readable() treats
a NULL -&gt;readable_reg as "every register is readable", and drivers rely on
that. es9356 and tac5xx2-sdw both build an MBQ regmap without one.

Since commit ca1b11b36d82 ("regmap: sdw-mbq: Allow defers on undeferrable
controls") the poll runs on every -ENODATA, not only for Controls the
driver marked deferrable, so any of those devices answering
COMMAND_IGNORED takes the kernel through a NULL function pointer.

Treat a missing callback the way the rest of regmap does and poll.

[ Upstream commit ae7fd6ff4c6713270d2efe6db87a4a58ccb7cc61 ]

When polling Function Busy using read_poll_timeout() the total timeout
and retry delay arguments are swapped. This leads to only a single retry
being processed, it seems the existing users typically do succeed before
the first retry.

Swap the arguments over to ensure the correct polling time.

[ Upstream commit ae7fd6ff4c6713270d2efe6db87a4a58ccb7cc61 ]

When polling Function Busy using read_poll_timeout() the total timeout
and retry delay arguments are swapped. This leads to only a single retry
being processed, it seems the existing users typically do succeed before
the first retry.

Swap the arguments over to ensure the correct polling time.

<title>firmware_loader: Add cancel helper for async requests</title>

[ Upstream commit b9bdd68b8b979c7e9de58b2e7d21e1d7d932c755 ]

request_firmware_nowait() keeps the callback module pinned and holds
a device reference until the firmware work completes.

Callers still have no way to cancel or synchronize the queued callback
before tearing down their driver-private state.

Track scheduled async firmware work in an internal list and add
request_firmware_nowait_cancel(). The helper cancels work matching the
device, callback context and callback function. It cancels work that has
not started yet and waits for an already-running callback to return. If
the request has already completed, it is a no-op.

Keep the existing request_firmware_nowait() lifetime model manual. A
devres-managed variant can be layered on top separately if needed.

<title>firmware_loader: Fix recursive lock in device_cache_fw_images()</title>

[ Upstream commit d3ec78f8f8d48a04a9fac38d47275c34645e5103 ]

A recursive locking deadlock can occur in the firmware loader's power
management notification handler.

During system suspend or hibernation preparation, fw_pm_notify() calls
device_cache_fw_images(). This function acquires fw_lock to set the
firmware cache state to FW_LOADER_START_CACHE and then iterates over all
devices using dpm_for_each_dev() while still holding the lock.

For each device, dev_cache_fw_image() schedules asynchronous work to cache
the firmware. If memory allocation for the async work entry fails (e.g., in
out-of-memory conditions), async_schedule_node_domain() falls back to
executing the work function synchronously in the current thread.

The synchronous execution path (__async_dev_cache_fw_image() -&gt;
cache_firmware() -&gt; request_firmware() -&gt; assign_fw()) attempts to acquire
fw_lock again. Since the current thread already holds fw_lock, this results
in a recursive locking deadlock.

Fix this by releasing fw_lock immediately after updating the cache state
and before calling dpm_for_each_dev(). The lock is only needed to protect
the state update. Concurrent firmware requests will correctly see the
FW_LOADER_START_CACHE state and use the piggyback mechanism, which is
independently protected by its own fwc-&gt;name_lock.

Commit 1137838865bf ("driver core: Use mod_delayed_work to prevent lost
deferred probe work") added a use of system_wq, which is deprecated in
favor of system_percpu_wq added by commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add
system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq"). An upcoming warning in the
workqueue tree flags this with:

  workqueue: work func deferred_probe_timeout_work_func enqueued on deprecated workqueue. Use system_{percpu|dfl}_wq instead.

Switch to system_percpu_wq to clear up the warning.

[ Upstream commit 557495bc879013c3d5e21d667e987e7ce3a514de ]

mod_delayed_work() unconditionally queues the work even when it wasn't
previously pending, which can fire the timeout prematurely or restart it
after it already fired. Add a delayed_work_pending() guard to restore
the originally intended semantics.

Premature firing calls fw_devlink_drivers_done() before all built-in
drivers have registered, causing fw_devlink to prematurely relax device
links for suppliers whose drivers haven't loaded yet.
