commit c503dd38f850be28867ef7a42d9abe5ade81a9bd upstream.

With KASAN and a couple of other patches applied, this driver is one
of the few remaining ones that actually use more than 2048 bytes of
kernel stack:

broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c: In function 'wlc_phy_workarounds_nphy_gainctrl':
broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c:16065:1: warning: the frame size of 3264 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c: In function 'wlc_phy_workarounds_nphy':
broadcom/brcm80211/brcmsmac/phy/phy_n.c:17138:1: warning: the frame size of 2864 bytes is larger than 2048 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

Here, I'm reducing the stack size by marking as many local variables as
'static const' as I can without changing the actual code.

This is the first of three patches to improve the stack usage in this
driver. It would be good to have this backported to stabl kernels
to get all drivers in 'allmodconfig' below the 2048 byte limit so
we can turn on the frame warning again globally, but I realize that
the patch is larger than the normal limit for stable backports.

The other two patches do not need to be backported.

commit 72d92e865d1560723e1957ee3f393688c49ca5bf upstream.

The dlc member of the struct rx_msg contains also the ESD_RTR flag to
mark received RTR frames. Without the fix the can_dlc value for received
RTR frames would always be set to 8 by get_can_dlc() instead of the
received value.

commit 97819f943063b622eca44d3644067c190dc75039 upstream.

If sending messages with no cable connected, it quickly happens that
there is no more TX context available. Then "gs_can_start_xmit()"
returns with "NETDEV_TX_BUSY" and the upper layer does retry
immediately keeping the CPU busy. To fix that issue, I moved
"atomic_dec(&amp;dev-&gt;active_tx_urbs)" from "gs_usb_xmit_callback()" to
the TX done handling in "gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback()". Renaming
"active_tx_urbs" to "active_tx_contexts" and moving it into
"gs_[alloc|free]_tx_context()" would also make sense.

<title>net/mlx4_core: Fix VF overwrite of module param which disables DMFS on new probed PFs</title>

[ Upstream commit 95f1ba9a24af9769f6e20dfe9a77c863f253f311 ]

In the VF driver, module parameter mlx4_log_num_mgm_entry_size was
mistakenly overwritten -- and in a manner which overrode the
device-managed flow steering option encoded in the parameter.

log_num_mgm_entry_size is a global module parameter which
affects all ConnectX-3 PFs installed on that host.
If a VF changes log_num_mgm_entry_size, this will affect all PFs
which are probed subsequent to the change (by disabling DMFS for
those PFs).

[ Upstream commit ebc8254aeae34226d0bc8fda309fd9790d4dccfe ]

This reverts commit 7ad813f208533cebfcc32d3d7474dc1677d1b09a ("net: phy:
Correctly process PHY_HALTED in phy_stop_machine()") because it is
creating the possibility for a NULL pointer dereference.

David Daney provide the following call trace and diagram of events:

When ndo_stop() is called we call:

 phy_disconnect()
    +---&gt; phy_stop_interrupts() implies: phydev-&gt;irq = PHY_POLL;
    +---&gt; phy_stop_machine()
    |      +---&gt; phy_state_machine()
    |              +----&gt; queue_delayed_work(): Work queued.
    +---&gt;phy_detach() implies: phydev-&gt;attached_dev = NULL;

Now at a later time the queued work does:

 phy_state_machine()
    +----&gt;netif_carrier_off(phydev-&gt;attached_dev): Oh no! It is NULL:

The original motivation for this change originated from Marc Gonzales
indicating that his network driver did not have its adjust_link callback
executing with phydev-&gt;link = 0 while he was expecting it.

PHYLIB has never made any such guarantees ever because phy_stop() merely just
tells the workqueue to move into PHY_HALTED state which will happen
asynchronously.

[ Upstream commit ebc8254aeae34226d0bc8fda309fd9790d4dccfe ]

This reverts commit 7ad813f208533cebfcc32d3d7474dc1677d1b09a ("net: phy:
Correctly process PHY_HALTED in phy_stop_machine()") because it is
creating the possibility for a NULL pointer dereference.

David Daney provide the following call trace and diagram of events:

When ndo_stop() is called we call:

 phy_disconnect()
    +---&gt; phy_stop_interrupts() implies: phydev-&gt;irq = PHY_POLL;
    +---&gt; phy_stop_machine()
    |      +---&gt; phy_state_machine()
    |              +----&gt; queue_delayed_work(): Work queued.
    +---&gt;phy_detach() implies: phydev-&gt;attached_dev = NULL;

Now at a later time the queued work does:

 phy_state_machine()
    +----&gt;netif_carrier_off(phydev-&gt;attached_dev): Oh no! It is NULL:

[ Upstream commit e58f95831e7468d25eb6e41f234842ecfe6f014f ]

gcc-8.0.0 (snapshot) points out that we copy a variable-length string
into a fixed length field using memcpy() with the destination length,
and that ends up copying whatever follows the string:

    inlined from 'ql_core_dump' at drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_dbg.c:1106:2:
drivers/net/ethernet/qlogic/qlge/qlge_dbg.c:708:2: error: 'memcpy' reading 15 bytes from a region of size 14 [-Werror=stringop-overflow=]
  memcpy(seg_hdr-&gt;description, desc, (sizeof(seg_hdr-&gt;description)) - 1);

Changing it to use strncpy() will instead zero-pad the destination,
which seems to be the right thing to do here.

The bug is probably harmless, but it seems like a good idea to address
it in stable kernels as well, if only for the purpose of building with
gcc-8 without warnings.
