commit bbc78c07a51f6fd29c227b1220a9016e585358ba upstream.

Make sure we're using the new macro, so our
resume signaling will always pass certification.

commit f0c2b68198589249afd2b1f2c4e8de8c03e19c16 upstream.

When a signal is delivered, the information in the siginfo structure
is copied to userspace.  Good security practice dicatates that the
unused fields in this structure should be initialized to 0 so that
random kernel stack data isn't exposed to the user.  This patch adds
such an initialization to the two places where usbfs raises signals.

<title>USB: add flag for HCDs that can't receive wakeup requests (isp1760-hcd)</title>

commit 074f9dd55f9cab1b82690ed7e44bcf38b9616ce0 upstream.

Currently the USB stack assumes that all host controller drivers are
capable of receiving wakeup requests from downstream devices.
However, this isn't true for the isp1760-hcd driver, which means that
it isn't safe to do a runtime suspend of any device attached to a
root-hub port if the device requires wakeup.

This patch adds a "cant_recv_wakeups" flag to the usb_hcd structure
and sets the flag in isp1760-hcd.  The core is modified to prevent a
direct child of the root hub from being put into runtime suspend with
wakeup enabled if the flag is set.

<title>USB: don't cancel queued resets when unbinding drivers</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 524134d422316a59d5464ccbc12036bbe90c5563 upstream.

The USB stack provides a mechanism for drivers to request an
asynchronous device reset (usb_queue_reset_device()).  The mechanism
uses a work item (reset_ws) embedded in the usb_interface structure
used by the driver, and the reset is carried out by a work queue
routine.

The asynchronous reset can race with driver unbinding.  When this
happens, we try to cancel the queued reset before unbinding the
driver, on the theory that the driver won't care about any resets once
it is unbound.

However, thanks to the fact that lockdep now tracks work queue
accesses, this can provoke a lockdep warning in situations where the
device reset causes another interface's driver to be unbound; see

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&amp;m=141893165203776&amp;w=2

for an example.  The reason is that the work routine for reset_ws in
one interface calls cancel_queued_work() for the reset_ws in another
interface.  Lockdep thinks this might lead to a work routine trying to
cancel itself.  The simplest solution is not to cancel queued resets
when unbinding drivers.

This means we now need to acquire a reference to the usb_interface
when queuing a reset_ws work item and to drop the reference when the
work routine finishes.  We also need to make sure that the
usb_interface structure doesn't outlive its parent usb_device; this
means acquiring and dropping a reference when the interface is created
and destroyed.

In addition, cancelling a queued reset can fail (if the device is in
the middle of an earlier reset), and this can cause usb_reset_device()
to try to rebind an interface that has been deallocated (see
http://marc.info/?l=linux-usb&amp;m=142175717016628&amp;w=2 for details).
Acquiring the extra references prevents this failure.

<title>usb: core: buffer: smallest buffer should start at ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN</title>

commit 5efd2ea8c9f4f12916ffc8ba636792ce052f6911 upstream.

the following error pops up during "testusb -a -t 10"
| musb-hdrc musb-hdrc.1.auto: dma_pool_free buffer-128,	f134e000/be842000 (bad dma)
hcd_buffer_create() creates a few buffers, the smallest has 32 bytes of
size. ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is set to 64 bytes. This combo results in
hcd_buffer_alloc() returning memory which is 32 bytes aligned and it
might by identified by buffer_offset() as another buffer. This means the
buffer which is on a 32 byte boundary will not get freed, instead it
tries to free another buffer with the error message.

This patch fixes the issue by creating the smallest DMA buffer with the
size of ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (or 32 in case ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is
smaller). This might be 32, 64 or even 128 bytes. The next three pools
will have the size 128, 512 and 2048.
In case the smallest pool is 128 bytes then we have only three pools
instead of four (and zero the first entry in the array).
The last pool size is always 2048 bytes which is the assumed PAGE_SIZE /
2 of 4096. I doubt it makes sense to continue using PAGE_SIZE / 2 where
we would end up with 8KiB buffer in case we have 16KiB pages.
Instead I think it makes sense to have a common size(s) and extend them
if there is need to.
There is a BUILD_BUG_ON() now in case someone has a minalign of more than
128 bytes.

commit c99197902da284b4b723451c1471c45b18537cde upstream.

The usb_hcd_unlink_urb() routine in hcd.c contains two possible
use-after-free errors.  The dev_dbg() statement at the end of the
routine dereferences urb and urb-&gt;dev even though both structures may
have been deallocated.

This patch fixes the problem by storing urb-&gt;dev in a local variable
(avoiding the dereference of urb) and moving the dev_dbg() up before
the usb_put_dev() call.

Pull more ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are regression fixes (leds-gpio, ACPI backlight driver,
  operating performance points library, ACPI device enumeration
  messages, cpupower tool), other bug fixes (ACPI EC driver, ACPI device
  PM), some cleanups in the operating performance points (OPP)
  framework, continuation of CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME elimination, a couple of
  minor intel_pstate driver changes, a new MAINTAINERS entry for it and
  an ACPI fan driver change needed for better support of thermal
  management in user space.

  Specifics:

   - Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
     inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the
     driver (Fabio Estevam).

   - Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
     recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken into
     account (Aaron Lu).

   - Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core
     introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should have
     used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR messages
     printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool (Prarit
     Bhargava).

   - Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP library
     and clean up some existing minor issues in that code (Viresh
     Kumar).

   - Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout the
     tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make it
     possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki, Ulf
     Hansson, Ludovic Desroches).

     There will be one more "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this
     one, because some new uses of it have been introduced during the
     current merge window, but that should be sufficient to finally get
     rid of it.

   - Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions related
     to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng).

   - Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to disable
     GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA and makes it
     report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver to
     make it possible to override the blacklisting of some systems in
     that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao).

   - Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS entry
     for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi).

   - Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces witn
     names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects they are
     associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans (PNP ID "PNP0C0B").

     That's necessary for user space thermal management tools to be able
     to connect the fans with the parts of the system they are supposed
     to be cooling properly.  From Srinivas Pandruvada"

Pull more ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are regression fixes (leds-gpio, ACPI backlight driver,
  operating performance points library, ACPI device enumeration
  messages, cpupower tool), other bug fixes (ACPI EC driver, ACPI device
  PM), some cleanups in the operating performance points (OPP)
  framework, continuation of CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME elimination, a couple of
  minor intel_pstate driver changes, a new MAINTAINERS entry for it and
  an ACPI fan driver change needed for better support of thermal
  management in user space.

  Specifics:

   - Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
     inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the
     driver (Fabio Estevam).

   - Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
     recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken into
     account (Aaron Lu).

   - Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core
     introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should have
     used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR messages
     printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool (Prarit
     Bhargava).

   - Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP library
     and clean up some existing minor issues in that code (Viresh
     Kumar).

   - Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout the
     tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make it
     possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki, Ulf
     Hansson, Ludovic Desroches).

     There will be one more "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this
     one, because some new uses of it have been introduced during the
     current merge window, but that should be sufficient to finally get
     rid of it.

   - Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions related
     to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng).

   - Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to disable
     GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA and makes it
     report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver to
     make it possible to override the blacklisting of some systems in
     that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao).

   - Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS entry
     for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi).

   - Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces witn
     names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects they are
     associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans (PNP ID "PNP0C0B").

     That's necessary for user space thermal management tools to be able
     to connect the fans with the parts of the system they are supposed
     to be cooling properly.  From Srinivas Pandruvada"

Pull USB updates from Greg KH:
 "Here's the big set of USB and PHY patches for 3.19-rc1.

  The normal churn in the USB gadget area is in here, as well as xhci
  and other individual USB driver updates.  The PHY tree is also in
  here, as there were dependancies on the USB tree.

  All of these have been in linux-next"

<title>PM / Kconfig: Replace PM_RUNTIME with PM in dependencies</title>

<id>1b3e3aa6c5c7a86ae09459f5734283b991dd7939</id>
<content type='text'>
After commit b2b49ccbdd54 (PM: Kconfig: Set PM_RUNTIME if PM_SLEEP is
selected) PM_RUNTIME is always set if PM is set, so Kconfig options
depending on CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME may now be changed to depend on
CONFIG_PM.

Replace PM_RUNTIME with PM in Kconfig dependencies throughout the
tree.
