[ Upstream commit ef1d3455bbc1922f94a91ed58d3d7db440652959 ]

If a faulty CXL memory device returns a broken zero LSA size in its
memory device information (Identify Memory Device (Opcode 4000h), CXL
spec. 3.1, 8.2.9.9.1.1), a divide error occurs in the libnvdimm
driver:

 Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI
 RIP: 0010:nd_label_data_init+0x10e/0x800 [libnvdimm]

Code and flow:

1) CXL Command 4000h returns LSA size = 0
2) config_size is assigned to zero LSA size (CXL pmem driver):

drivers/cxl/pmem.c:             .config_size = mds-&gt;lsa_size,

3) max_xfer is set to zero (nvdimm driver):

drivers/nvdimm/label.c: max_xfer = min_t(size_t, ndd-&gt;nsarea.max_xfer, config_size);

4) A subsequent DIV_ROUND_UP() causes a division by zero:

drivers/nvdimm/label.c: /* Make our initial read size a multiple of max_xfer size */
drivers/nvdimm/label.c: read_size = min(DIV_ROUND_UP(read_size, max_xfer) * max_xfer,
drivers/nvdimm/label.c-                 config_size);

Fix this by checking the config size parameter by extending an
existing check.

<title>badblocks: use sector_t instead of int to avoid truncation of badblocks length</title>

[ Upstream commit d301f164c3fbff611bd71f57dfa553b9219f0f5e ]

There is a truncation of badblocks length issue when set badblocks as
follow:

echo "2055 4294967299" &gt; bad_blocks
cat bad_blocks
2055 3

Change 'sectors' argument type from 'int' to 'sector_t'.

This change avoids truncation of badblocks length for large sectors by
replacing 'int' with 'sector_t' (u64), enabling proper handling of larger
disk sizes and ensuring compatibility with 64-bit sector addressing.

[ Upstream commit c8775aefba959cdfbaa25408a84d3dd15bbeb991 ]

Change the return type of badblocks_set() and badblocks_clear()
from int to bool, indicating success or failure. Specifically:

- _badblocks_set() and _badblocks_clear() functions now return
true for success and false for failure.
- All calls to these functions are updated to handle the new
boolean return type.
- This change improves code clarity and ensures a more consistent
handling of success and failure states.

<title>driver core: Constify API device_find_child() and adapt for various usages</title>

<id>f1e8bf56320a7fb32095b6c51b707459361b403b</id>
<content type='text'>
Constify the following API:
struct device *device_find_child(struct device *dev, void *data,
		int (*match)(struct device *dev, void *data));
To :
struct device *device_find_child(struct device *dev, const void *data,
                                 device_match_t match);
typedef int (*device_match_t)(struct device *dev, const void *data);
with the following reasons:

- Protect caller's match data @*data which is for comparison and lookup
  and the API does not actually need to modify @*data.

- Make the API's parameters (@match)() and @data have the same type as
  all of other device finding APIs (bus|class|driver)_find_device().

- All kinds of existing device match functions can be directly taken
  as the API's argument, they were exported by driver core.

Constify the API and adapt for various existing usages.

BTW, various subsystem changes are squashed into this commit to meet
'git bisect' requirement, and this commit has the minimal and simplest
changes to complement squashing shortcoming, and that may bring extra
code improvement.

<title>Get rid of 'remove_new' relic from platform driver struct</title>

<id>e70140ba0d2b1a30467d4af6bcfe761327b9ec95</id>
<content type='text'>
The continual trickle of small conversion patches is grating on me, and
is really not helping.  Just get rid of the 'remove_new' member
function, which is just an alias for the plain 'remove', and had a
comment to that effect:

  /*
   * .remove_new() is a relic from a prototype conversion of .remove().
   * New drivers are supposed to implement .remove(). Once all drivers are
   * converted to not use .remove_new any more, it will be dropped.
   */

This was just a tree-wide 'sed' script that replaced '.remove_new' with
'.remove', with some care taken to turn a subsequent tab into two tabs
to make things line up.

I did do some minimal manual whitespace adjustment for places that used
spaces to line things up.

Then I just removed the old (sic) .remove_new member function, and this
is the end result.  No more unnecessary conversion noise.

The continual trickle of small conversion patches is grating on me, and
is really not helping.  Just get rid of the 'remove_new' member
function, which is just an alias for the plain 'remove', and had a
comment to that effect:

  /*
   * .remove_new() is a relic from a prototype conversion of .remove().
   * New drivers are supposed to implement .remove(). Once all drivers are
   * converted to not use .remove_new any more, it will be dropped.
   */

This was just a tree-wide 'sed' script that replaced '.remove_new' with
'.remove', with some care taken to turn a subsequent tab into two tabs
to make things line up.

I did do some minimal manual whitespace adjustment for places that used
spaces to line things up.

Then I just removed the old (sic) .remove_new member function, and this
is the end result.  No more unnecessary conversion noise.

When nd_dax is NULL, nd_pfn is consequently NULL as well. Nevertheless,
it is inadvisable to perform pointer arithmetic or address-taking on a
NULL pointer.
Introduce the nd_dax_devinit() function to enhance the code's logic and
improve its readability.
