[ Upstream commit c63ed6e1f5fe648a4a099b6717f679999be482ef ]

When the skx_get_dimm_attr() helper returns -EINVAL,
skx_get_dimm_info() does not validate these return values before using
them in a shift operation:

    size = ((1ull &lt;&lt; (rows + cols + ranks)) * banks) &gt;&gt; (20 - 3);

If all three values are -22, the shift exponent becomes -66, triggering
a UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds error:

    UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in drivers/edac/skx_common.c
    shift exponent -66 is negative

<title>EDAC/igen6: Fix memory topology parsing for Panther Lake-H SoCs</title>

[ Upstream commit 114bfa24eacb688488caa2e459358a1b9b89b16d ]

Panther Lake-H SoC memory controller registers for memory topology have
been updated, but the current igen6_edac driver still uses old generation
ones to incorrectly parse memory topology.

Fix the issue by adding memory topology parsing function pointers to the
'struct res_config' and creating a new configuration structure for Panther
Lake-H SoCs to enable igen6_edac to parse memory correctly.

[ Upstream commit ab1f9d466c7d83ab0d2a529e07984e53b5960dcd ]

When unloading the igen6_edac driver, there is a call trace:

  Device '(null)' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed.
  See Documentation/core-api/kobject.rst.
  WARNING: drivers/base/core.c:2567 at device_release+0x84/0x90, CPU#5: rmmod/127209

Fix the call trace by providing empty release() functions for the
memory controller devices.

<title>EDAC/i10nm: Don't fail probing if ADXL is missing</title>

<content type='text'>
commit e360a6d65bb46c527a5909430a31d640cdd5036e upstream.

ADXL is not present in Coreboot- or Slimbootloader-based BIOSes and as
result, the driver fails to probe there.

Since commit 2738c69a8813 ("EDAC/i10nm: Add driver decoder for Ice Lake
and Tremont CPUs"), i10nm_edac supports driver decoder. Switch to driver
decoding when ADXL is not present.

The device name allocated via kzalloc() in init_one_mc() is assigned to
dev-&gt;init_name but never freed on the normal removal path.  device_register()
copies init_name and then sets dev-&gt;init_name to NULL, so the name pointer
becomes unreachable from the device. Thus leaking memory.

Use a stack-local char array instead of using kzalloc() for name.

When the mci-&gt;pvt_info allocation in edac_mc_alloc() fails, the error path
will call put_device() which will end up calling the device's release
function.

However, the init ordering is wrong such that device_initialize() happens
*after* the failed allocation and thus the device itself and the release
function pointer are not initialized yet when they're called:

  MCE: In-kernel MCE decoding enabled.
  ------------[ cut here ]------------
  kobject: '(null)': is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being called.
  WARNING: lib/kobject.c:734 at kobject_put, CPU#22: systemd-udevd
  CPU: 22 UID: 0 PID: 538 Comm: systemd-udevd Not tainted 7.0.0-rc1+ #2 PREEMPT(full)
  RIP: 0010:kobject_put
  Call Trace:
   &lt;TASK&gt;
   edac_mc_alloc+0xbe/0xe0 [edac_core]

   ? __pfx_amd64_edac_init+0x10/0x10 [amd64_edac]
   do_one_initcall
   ...

Reorder the calling sequence so that the device is initialized and thus the
release function pointer is properly set before it can be used.

This was found by Claude while reviewing another EDAC patch.

<title>EDAC/mc: Use kzalloc_flex()</title>

Convert struct mem_ctl_info to use flex array and use the new flex array
helpers to enable runtime bounds checking, including annotating the array
length member with __counted_by() for extra runtime analysis when requested.

Move memcpy() after the counter assignment so that it is initialized before
the first reference to the flex array, as the new attribute requires.
