Pull char/misc driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of new char/misc driver drivers and features for
  4.12-rc1.

  There's lots of new drivers added this time around, new firmware
  drivers from Google, more auxdisplay drivers, extcon drivers, fpga
  drivers, and a bunch of other driver updates. Nothing major, except if
  you happen to have the hardware for these drivers, and then you will
  be happy :)

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

virtio: wrap find_vqs

2017-05-02T20:41:42+00:00

We are going to add more parameters to find_vqs, let's wrap the call so
we don't need to tweak all drivers every time.

virtio_console: fix uninitialized variable use

2017-04-07T13:39:00+00:00

We try to disable callbacks on c_ivq even without multiport
even though that vq is not initialized in this configuration.

drivers/char: Convert remaining use of pr_warning to pr_warn

2017-03-17T06:10:49+00:00

To enable eventual removal of pr_warning

This makes pr_warn use consistent for drivers/char

Prior to this patch, there were 1 use of pr_warning and
40 uses of pr_warn in drivers/char

virtio-console: avoid DMA from stack

2017-03-01T23:35:06+00:00

put_chars() stuffs the buffer it gets into an sg, but that buffer may be
on the stack. This breaks with CONFIG_VMAP_STACK=y (for me, it
manifested as printks getting turned into NUL bytes).

virtio: allow drivers to request IRQ affinity when creating VQs

2017-02-27T18:54:04+00:00

Add a struct irq_affinity pointer to the find_vqs methods, which if set
is used to tell the PCI layer to create the MSI-X vectors for our I/O
virtqueues with the proper affinity from the start.  Compared to after
the fact affinity hints this gives us an instantly working setup and
allows to allocate the irq descritors node-local and avoid interconnect
traffic.  Last but not least this will allow blk-mq queues are created
based on the interrupt affinity for storage drivers.

virtio_console: fix a crash in config_work_handler

2017-01-19T21:46:31+00:00

Using control_work instead of config_work as the 3rd argument to
container_of results in an invalid portdev pointer. Indeed, the work
structure is initialized as below:

    INIT_WORK(&portdev->config_work, &config_work_handler);

It leads to a crash when portdev->vdev is dereferenced later. This
bug
is triggered when the guest uses a virtio-console without multiport
feature and receives a config_changed virtio interrupt.

virtio_console: drop unused config fields

2016-12-15T04:59:15+00:00

struct ports_device includes a config field including the whole
virtio_console_config, but only max_nr_ports in there is ever updated or
used. The rest is unused and in fact does not even mirror the
device config. Drop everything except max_nr_ports,
saving some memory.

virtio: console: Unlock vqs while freeing buffers

2016-10-30T22:21:44+00:00

Commit c6017e793b93 ("virtio: console: add locks around buffer removal
in port unplug path") added locking around the freeing of buffers in the
vq. However, when free_buf() is called with can_sleep = true and rproc
is enabled, it calls dma_free_coherent() directly, requiring interrupts
to be enabled. Currently a WARNING is triggered due to the spin locking
around free_buf, with a call stack like this:

WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 121 at ./include/linux/dma-mapping.h:433

[<807b6b50>] unregister_virtio_device+0x28/0x44

Fix this by restructuring the loops to allow the locks to only be taken
where it is necessary to protect the vqs, and release it while the
buffer is being freed.
