[ Upstream commit 04ac7f98b92181179ea84439642493f3826d04a2 ]

Error handler for etm_setup_aux can not release coresight path because
cpu mask was cleared when coresight_trace_id_get_cpu_id failed.

Call coresight_release_path function explicitly when alloc trace id filed.

commit f67bc15e526bb9920683ad6c1891ff9e08981335 upstream.

This code generates a Smatch warning:

    drivers/hwtracing/coresight/coresight-tmc-etr.c:947 tmc_etr_buf_insert_barrier_packet()
    error: uninitialized symbol 'bufp'.

The problem is that if tmc_sg_table_get_data() returns -EINVAL, then
when we test if "len &lt; CORESIGHT_BARRIER_PKT_SIZE", the negative "len"
value is type promoted to a high unsigned long value which is greater
than CORESIGHT_BARRIER_PKT_SIZE.  Fix this bug by adding an explicit
check for error codes.

<title>coresight: etm4x: Do not access TRCIDR1 for identification</title>

CoreSight ETM4x architecture clearly provides ways to identify a device
via registers in the "Management" class, TRCDEVARCH and TRCDEVTYPE. These
registers can be accessed without the Trace domain being powered on.
We additionally added TRCIDR1 as fallback in order to cover for any
ETMs that may not have implemented TRCDEVARCH. So far, nobody has
reported hitting a WARNING we placed to catch such systems.

Also, more importantly it is problematic to access TRCIDR1, which is a
"Trace" register via MMIO access, without clearing the OSLK. But we cannot
mess with the OSLK until we know for sure that this is an ETMv4 device.
Thus, this kind of creates a chicken and egg problem unnecessarily for
systems "which are compliant" to the ETMv4 architecture.

Let us remove the TRCIDR1 fall back check and rely only on TRCDEVARCH.

Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.3-rc1.

  There's a lot of changes this development cycle, most of the work
  falls into two different categories:

   - fw_devlink fixes and updates. This has gone through numerous review
     cycles and lots of review and testing by lots of different devices.
     Hopefully all should be good now, and Saravana will be keeping a
     watch for any potential regression on odd embedded systems.

   - driver core changes to work to make struct bus_type able to be
     moved into read-only memory (i.e. const) The recent work with Rust
     has pointed out a number of areas in the driver core where we are
     passing around and working with structures that really do not have
     to be dynamic at all, and they should be able to be read-only
     making things safer overall. This is the contuation of that work
     (started last release with kobject changes) in moving struct
     bus_type to be constant. We didn't quite make it for this release,
     but the remaining patches will be finished up for the release after
     this one, but the groundwork has been laid for this effort.

  Other than that we have in here:

   - debugfs memory leak fixes in some subsystems

   - error path cleanups and fixes for some never-able-to-be-hit
     codepaths.

   - cacheinfo rework and fixes

   - Other tiny fixes, full details are in the shortlog

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

[ Geert Uytterhoeven points out that that last sentence isn't true, and
  that there's a pending report that has a fix that is queued up - Linus ]

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Daniel Verkamp has contributed a memfd series ("mm/memfd: add
   F_SEAL_EXEC") which permits the setting of the memfd execute bit at
   memfd creation time, with the option of sealing the state of the X
   bit.

 - Peter Xu adds a patch series ("mm/hugetlb: Make huge_pte_offset()
   thread-safe for pmd unshare") which addresses a rare race condition
   related to PMD unsharing.

 - Several folioification patch serieses from Matthew Wilcox, Vishal
   Moola, Sidhartha Kumar and Lorenzo Stoakes

 - Johannes Weiner has a series ("mm: push down lock_page_memcg()")
   which does perform some memcg maintenance and cleanup work.

 - SeongJae Park has added DAMOS filtering to DAMON, with the series
   "mm/damon/core: implement damos filter".

   These filters provide users with finer-grained control over DAMOS's
   actions. SeongJae has also done some DAMON cleanup work.

 - Kairui Song adds a series ("Clean up and fixes for swap").

 - Vernon Yang contributed the series "Clean up and refinement for maple
   tree".

 - Yu Zhao has contributed the "mm: multi-gen LRU: memcg LRU" series. It
   adds to MGLRU an LRU of memcgs, to improve the scalability of global
   reclaim.

 - David Hildenbrand has added some userfaultfd cleanup work in the
   series "mm: uffd-wp + change_protection() cleanups".

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed the generic_writepages() library
   function in the series "remove generic_writepages".

 - Baolin Wang has performed some maintenance on the compaction code in
   his series "Some small improvements for compaction".

 - Sidhartha Kumar is doing some maintenance work on struct page in his
   series "Get rid of tail page fields".

 - David Hildenbrand contributed some cleanup, bugfixing and
   generalization of pte management and of pte debugging in his series
   "mm: support __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SWP_EXCLUSIVE on all architectures with
   swap PTEs".

 - Mel Gorman and Neil Brown have removed the __GFP_ATOMIC allocation
   flag in the series "Discard __GFP_ATOMIC".

 - Sergey Senozhatsky has improved zsmalloc's memory utilization with
   his series "zsmalloc: make zspage chain size configurable".

 - Joey Gouly has added prctl() support for prohibiting the creation of
   writeable+executable mappings.

   The previous BPF-based approach had shortcomings. See "mm: In-kernel
   support for memory-deny-write-execute (MDWE)".

 - Waiman Long did some kmemleak cleanup and bugfixing in the series
   "mm/kmemleak: Simplify kmemleak_cond_resched() &amp; fix UAF".

 - T.J. Alumbaugh has contributed some MGLRU cleanup work in his series
   "mm: multi-gen LRU: improve".

 - Jiaqi Yan has provided some enhancements to our memory error
   statistics reporting, mainly by presenting the statistics on a
   per-node basis. See the series "Introduce per NUMA node memory error
   statistics".

 - Mel Gorman has a second and hopefully final shot at fixing a CPU-hog
   regression in compaction via his series "Fix excessive CPU usage
   during compaction".

 - Christoph Hellwig does some vmalloc maintenance work in the series
   "cleanup vfree and vunmap".

 - Christoph Hellwig has removed block_device_operations.rw_page() in
   ths series "remove -&gt;rw_page".

 - We get some maple_tree improvements and cleanups in Liam Howlett's
   series "VMA tree type safety and remove __vma_adjust()".

 - Suren Baghdasaryan has done some work on the maintainability of our
   vm_flags handling in the series "introduce vm_flags modifier
   functions".

 - Some pagemap cleanup and generalization work in Mike Rapoport's
   series "mm, arch: add generic implementation of pfn_valid() for
   FLATMEM" and "fixups for generic implementation of pfn_valid()"

 - Baoquan He has done some work to make /proc/vmallocinfo and
   /proc/kcore better represent the real state of things in his series
   "mm/vmalloc.c: allow vread() to read out vm_map_ram areas".

 - Jason Gunthorpe rationalized the GUP system's interface to the rest
   of the kernel in the series "Simplify the external interface for
   GUP".

 - SeongJae Park wishes to migrate people from DAMON's debugfs interface
   over to its sysfs interface. To support this, we'll temporarily be
   printing warnings when people use the debugfs interface. See the
   series "mm/damon: deprecate DAMON debugfs interface".

 - Andrey Konovalov provided the accurately named "lib/stackdepot: fixes
   and clean-ups" series.

 - Huang Ying has provided a dramatic reduction in migration's TLB flush
   IPI rates with the series "migrate_pages(): batch TLB flushing".

 - Arnd Bergmann has some objtool fixups in "objtool warning fixes".

correctness.

Now that the SRCU Kconfig option is unconditionally selected, there is
no longer any point in selecting it.  Therefore, remove the "select SRCU"
Kconfig statements.
