[ Upstream commit 5b933c7262c5b0ea11ea3c3b3ea81add04895954 ]

For wmfw format v2 and later the coefficient name strings have a length
field and are NOT null-terminated. Use kasprintf() to convert the
unterminated string into a null-terminated string in an allocated buffer.

The previous code handled this duplication incorrectly using kmemdup()
and getting the length from a strlen() of the (unterminated) source string.
This resulted in creating a string that continued up to the next byte in
the firmware file that just happened to be 0x00.

[ Upstream commit 23274739a5b6166f74d8d9cb5243d7bf6b46aab9 ]

During SCMI Clock protocol initialization, after having retrieved from the
SCMI platform all the available discrete rates for a specific clock, the
clock rates array is sorted, unfortunately using a pointer to its end as
a base instead of its start, so that sorting does not work.

Fix invocation of sort() passing as base a pointer to the start of the
retrieved clock rates array.

[ Upstream commit 98f0d68f94ea21541e0050cc64fa108ade779839 ]

On SCMI transports whose channels are based on a shared resource the TX
channel area has to be acquired by the agent before placing the desired
command into the channel and it will be then relinquished by the platform
once the related reply has been made available into the channel.
On an RX channel the logic is reversed with the platform acquiring the
channel area and the agent reliquishing it once done by calling the
scmi_clear_channel() helper.

As a consequence, even in case of error, the agent must never try to clear
a TX channel from its side: restrict the existing clear channel call on the
the reply path only to delayed responses since they are indeed coming from
the RX channel.

[ Upstream commit 37fd83916da2e4cae03d350015c82a67b1b334c4 ]

on some UML configurations:

<title>pstore: Don't use semaphores in always-atomic-context code</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 8126b1c73108bc691f5643df19071a59a69d0bc6 upstream.

pstore_dump() is *always* invoked in atomic context (nowadays in an RCU
read-side critical section, before that under a spinlock).
It doesn't make sense to try to use semaphores here.

This is mostly a revert of commit ea84b580b955 ("pstore: Convert buf_lock
to semaphore"), except that two parts aren't restored back exactly as they
were:

 - keep the lock initialization in pstore_register
 - in efi_pstore_write(), always set the "block" flag to false
 - omit "is_locked", that was unnecessary since
   commit 959217c84c27 ("pstore: Actually give up during locking failure")
 - fix the bailout message

The actual problem that the buggy commit was trying to address may have
been that the use of preemptible() in efi_pstore_write() was wrong - it
only looks at preempt_count() and the state of IRQs, but __rcu_read_lock()
doesn't touch either of those under CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU.
(Sidenote: CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU means that the scheduler can preempt tasks in
RCU read-side critical sections, but you're not allowed to actively
block/reschedule.)

Lockdep probably never caught the problem because it's very rare that you
actually hit the contended case, so lockdep always just sees the
down_trylock(), not the down_interruptible(), and so it can't tell that
there's a problem.

commit b850b7a8b369322adf699ef48ceff4d902525c8c upstream.

Fix a bug whereby, the return response of parameter a1 from an
SMC call is not properly set to the callback data during an
INTEL_SIP_SMC_RSU_ERROR command.

When "dump_apple_properties" is used on the kernel boot command line,
it causes an Unknown parameter message and the string is added to init's
argument strings:

  Unknown kernel command line parameters "dump_apple_properties
    BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6 efivar_ssdt=newcpu_ssdt", will be
    passed to user space.

 Run /sbin/init as init process
   with arguments:
     /sbin/init
     dump_apple_properties
   with environment:
     HOME=/
     TERM=linux
     BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc6
     efivar_ssdt=newcpu_ssdt

Similarly when "efivar_ssdt=somestring" is used, it is added to the
Unknown parameter message and to init's environment strings, polluting
them (see examples above).

Change the return value of the __setup functions to 1 to indicate
that the __setup options have been handled.

Fixes: 58c5475aba67 ("x86/efi: Retrieve and assign Apple device properties")
Fixes: 475fb4e8b2f4 ("efi / ACPI: load SSTDs from EFI variables")
