commit f9f4872df6e1801572949f8a370c886122d4b6da upstream.

This is a requirement that MSR MSR_PM_ENABLE must be set to 0x01 before
reading MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES on a given CPU. If cpufreq init() is
scheduled on a CPU which is not same as policy-&gt;cpu or migrates to a
different CPU before calling msr read for MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES, it
is possible that MSR_PM_ENABLE was not to set to 0x01 on that CPU.
This will cause GP fault. So like other places in this path
rdmsrl_on_cpu should be used instead of rdmsrl.

Moreover the scope of MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES is on per thread basis, so it
should be read from the same CPU, for which MSR MSR_HWP_REQUEST is
getting set.

commit abb6627910a1e783c8e034b35b7c80e5e7f98f41 upstream.

Commit d352cf47d93e (cpufreq: conservative: Do not use transition
notifications) overlooked the case when the "frequency step" used
by the conservative governor is small relative to the distances
between the available frequencies and broke the algorithm by
using policy-&gt;cur instead of the previously requested frequency
when computing the next one.

As a result, the governor may not be able to go outside of a narrow
range between two consecutive available frequencies.

Fix the problem by making the governor save the previously requested
frequency and select the next one relative that value (unless it is
out of range, in which case policy-&gt;cur will be used instead).

commit e01072d22d4e7f9ca966f848def22fe41eaef4de upstream.

Now that the cpufreq-dt-platdev is used to create the cpufreq-dt platform
device for all OMAP platforms and the platform code that did it
before has been removed, add ti,am33xx and ti,dra7xx to the machine list
in cpufreq-dt-platdev which had relied on the removed platform code to do
this previously.

Commit 09ca4c9b5958 (cpufreq: powernv: Replacing pstate_id with
frequency table index) changes calc_global_pstate() to use
cpufreq_table index instead of pstate_id.

But in gpstate_timer_handler(), pstate_id was being passed instead
of cpufreq_table index, which caused index_to_pstate() to access
out of bound indices, leading to this crash.

Adding sanity check for index and pstate, to ensure only valid pstate
and index values are returned.

Commit 09ca4c9b5958 (cpufreq: powernv: Replacing pstate_id with
frequency table index) changes calc_global_pstate() to use
cpufreq_table index instead of pstate_id.

But in gpstate_timer_handler(), pstate_id was being passed instead
of cpufreq_table index, which caused index_to_pstate() to access
out of bound indices, leading to this crash.

Adding sanity check for index and pstate, to ensure only valid pstate
and index values are returned.

Pull more power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "A few more fixes and cleanups in the x86-64 low-level hibernation
  code, PM core, cpufreq (Kconfig and intel_pstate), and the operating
  points framework.

  Specifics:

   - Prevent the low-level assembly hibernate code on x86-64 from
     referring to __PAGE_OFFSET directly as a symbol which doesn't work
     when the kernel identity mapping base is randomized, in which case
     __PAGE_OFFSET is a variable (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Avoid selecting CPU_FREQ_STAT by default as the statistics are not
     required for proper cpufreq operation (Borislav Petkov).

   - Add Skylake-X and Broadwell-X IDs to the intel_pstate's list of
     processors where out-of-band (OBB) control of P-states is possible
     and if that is in use, intel_pstate should not attempt to manage
     P-states (Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - Drop some unnecessary checks from the wakeup IRQ handling code in
     the PM core (Markus Elfring).

   - Reduce the number operating performance point (OPP) lookups in one
     of the OPP framework's helper functions (Jisheng Zhang)"

CPU frequency transition statistics are not absolutely required for
proper cpufreq operation on the system AFAICT so remove the default-yes
setting in Kconfig.

Pull ARM SoC driver updates from Olof Johansson:
 "Driver updates for ARM SoCs.

  A slew of changes this release cycle.  The reset driver tree, that we
  merge through arm-soc for historical reasons, is also sizable this
  time around.

  Among the changes:

   - clps711x: Treewide changes to compatible strings, merged here for simplicity.
   - Qualcomm: SCM firmware driver cleanups, move to platform driver
   - ux500: Major cleanups, removal of old mach-specific infrastructure.
   - Atmel external bus memory driver
   - Move of brcmstb platform to the rest of bcm
   - PMC driver updates for tegra, various fixes and improvements
   - Samsung platform driver updates to support 64-bit Exynos platforms
   - Reset controller cleanups moving to devm_reset_controller_register() APIs
   - Reset controller driver for Amlogic Meson
   - Reset controller driver for Hisilicon hi6220
   - ARM SCPI power domain support"
