[ Upstream commit 5901eda2ed99ba0d3661da6eb265970559323bb3 ]

In __of_find_n_match_cpu_property(), checking the variable ac for 0 won't
prevent a possible overflow when multiplying it by sizeof(*cell). Besides,
of_read_number() (called in the *for* loop) can't return correct result if
that variable (which equals the #address-cells prop's value) exceeds 2, so
additionally checking for that seems logical...

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the Svace static
analysis tool.

[ Upstream commit e1686ca81dbf3edbde589b7daf312b45cbf76e03 ]

The global pointer 'reserved_mem' continues to reference the
reserved_mem_array which lives in __initdata if
alloc_reserved_mem_array() fails. of_reserved_mem_lookup() is
exported for post-init use, that would dereference freed memory
and trigger a use-after-free.

So reset reserved_mem_count to 0 when alloc_reserved_mem_array()
fails.

<title>of: dynamic: Fix overlayed devices not probing because of fw_devlink</title>

[ Upstream commit 81e7c6befa36cecdcbf7244393bd67e8f8c59bf5 ]

When an overlay is applied, if the target device has already probed
successfully and bound to a device, then some of the fw_devlink logic
that ran when the device was probed needs to be rerun. This allows newly
created dangling consumers of the overlayed device tree nodes to be
moved to become consumers of the target device.

[Herve: Add the call to driver_deferred_probe_trigger()]
[Herve: Use fwnode_test_flag() to test fwnode flags value]

This reverts commit 1a50d9403fb90cbe4dea0ec9fd0351d2ecbd8924.

While the commit fixed fw_devlink overlay handling for one case, it
broke it for another case. So revert it and redo the fix in a separate
patch.

   print outs in case of a failure and debugfs info showing what was
   actually reserved

 - Make memblock_free_late() and free_reserved_area() use the same core
   logic for freeing the memory to buddy and ensure it takes care of
   updating memblock arrays when ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK is enabled.

   used in confidential computing (Jiri Pirko)

Pull non-MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - "pid: make sub-init creation retryable" (Oleg Nesterov)

   Make creation of init in a new namespace more robust by clearing away
   some historical cruft which is no longer needed. Also some
   documentation fixups

 - "selftests/fchmodat2: Error handling and general" (Mark Brown)

   Fix and a cleanup for the fchmodat2() syscall selftest

 - "lib: polynomial: Move to math/ and clean up" (Andy Shevchenko)

 - "hung_task: Provide runtime reset interface for hung task detector"
   (Aaron Tomlin)

   Give administrators the ability to zero out
   /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_detect_count

 - "tools/getdelays: use the static UAPI headers from
   tools/include/uapi" (Thomas Weißschuh)

   Teach getdelays to use the in-kernel UAPI headers rather than the
   system-provided ones

 - "watchdog/hardlockup: Improvements to hardlockup" (Mayank Rungta)

   Several cleanups and fixups to the hardlockup detector code and its
   documentation

 - "lib/bch: fix undefined behavior from signed left-shifts" (Josh Law)

   A couple of small/theoretical fixes in the bch code

 - "ocfs2/dlm: fix two bugs in dlm_match_regions()" (Junrui Luo)

 - "cleanup the RAID5 XOR library" (Christoph Hellwig)

   A quite far-reaching cleanup to this code. I can't do better than to
   quote Christoph:

     "The XOR library used for the RAID5 parity is a bit of a mess right
      now. The main file sits in crypto/ despite not being cryptography
      and not using the crypto API, with the generic implementations
      sitting in include/asm-generic and the arch implementations
      sitting in an asm/ header in theory. The latter doesn't work for
      many cases, so architectures often build the code directly into
      the core kernel, or create another module for the architecture
      code.

      Change this to a single module in lib/ that also contains the
      architecture optimizations, similar to the library work Eric
      Biggers has done for the CRC and crypto libraries later. After
      that it changes to better calling conventions that allow for
      smarter architecture implementations (although none is contained
      here yet), and uses static_call to avoid indirection function call
      overhead"

 - "lib/list_sort: Clean up list_sort() scheduling workarounds"
   (Kuan-Wei Chiu)

   Clean up this library code by removing a hacky thing which was added
   for UBIFS, which UBIFS doesn't actually need

 - "Fix bugs in extract_iter_to_sg()" (Christian Ehrhardt)

   Fix a few bugs in the scatterlist code, add in-kernel tests for the
   now-fixed bugs and fix a leak in the test itself

 - "kdump: Enable LUKS-encrypted dump target support in ARM64 and
   PowerPC" (Coiby Xu)

   Enable support of the LUKS-encrypted device dump target on arm64 and
   powerpc

 - "ocfs2: consolidate extent list validation into block read callbacks"
   (Joseph Qi)

   Cleanup, simplify, and make more robust ocfs2's validation of extent
   list fields (Kernel test robot loves mounting corrupted fs images!)

The function testdrv_probe() retrieves the device_node from the PCI
device, applies an overlay, and then immediately calls of_node_put(dn).
This releases the reference held by the PCI core, potentially freeing
the node if the reference count drops to zero. Later, the same freed
pointer 'dn' is passed to of_platform_default_populate(), leading to a
use-after-free.

The reference to pdev-&gt;dev.of_node is owned by the device model and
should not be released by the driver. Remove the erroneous of_node_put()
to prevent premature freeing.

The variable 'parent' is assigned the value of 'nchangeset' earlier in the
function, meaning both point to the same struct device_node. The call to
of_node_put(nchangeset) can decrement the reference count to zero and
free the node if there are no other holders. After that, the code still
uses 'parent' to check for the presence of a property and to read a
string property, leading to a use-after-free.

Fix this by moving the of_node_put() call after the last access to
'parent', avoiding the UAF.
