commit 229bc19fd7aca4f37964af06e3583c1c8f36b5d6 upstream.

Don't rely on event interrupt (EINT) bit alone to detect pending port
change in resume. If no change event is detected the host may be suspended
again, oterwise roothubs are resumed.

There is a lag in xHC setting EINT. If we don't notice the pending change
in resume, and the controller is runtime suspeded again, it causes the
event handler to assume host is dead as it will fail to read xHC registers
once PCI puts the controller to D3 state.

The EINT lag is described in a additional note in xhci specs 4.19.2:

"Due to internal xHC scheduling and system delays, there will be a lag
between a change bit being set and the Port Status Change Event that it
generated being written to the Event Ring. If SW reads the PORTSC and
sees a change bit set, there is no guarantee that the corresponding Port
Status Change Event has already been written into the Event Ring."

[ Upstream commit 5c968f48021a9b3faa61ac2543cfab32461c0e05 ]

mii_nway_restart is not pm aware which results in a rtnl deadlock.
Implement mii_nway_restart manual by setting BMCR_ANRESTART if
BMCR_ANENABLE is set.

To reproduce:
* plug an asix based usb network interface
* wait until the device enters PM (~5 sec)
* `ip link set eth1 up` will never return

Currently also the pause flags are removed from phydev-&gt;supported because
they're not included in PHY_DEFAULT_FEATURES. I don't think this is
intended, especially when considering that this function can be called
via phy_set_max_speed() anywhere in a driver. Change the masking to mask
out only the values we're going to change. In addition remove the
misleading comment, job of this small function is just to adjust the
supported and advertised speeds.

commit 96a85cc517a9ee4ae5e8d7f5a36cba05023784eb upstream.

Just like with PIPESTAT, the edge triggered IIR on i965/g4x
also causes problems for hotplug interrupts. To make sure
we don't get the IIR port interrupt bit stuck low with the
ISR bit high we must force an edge in ISR. Unfortunately
we can't borrow the PIPESTAT trick and toggle the enable
bits in PORT_HOTPLUG_EN as that act itself generates hotplug
interrupts. Instead we just have to loop until we've cleared
PORT_HOTPLUG_STAT, or we just give up and WARN.

v2: Don't frob with PORT_HOTPLUG_EN

commit 0e714d27786ce1fb3efa9aac58abc096e68b1c2a upstream.

info.index can be indirectly controlled by user-space, hence leading
to a potential exploitation of the Spectre variant 1 vulnerability.

This issue was detected with the help of Smatch:

drivers/vfio/pci/vfio_pci.c:734 vfio_pci_ioctl()
warn: potential spectre issue 'vdev-&gt;region'

Fix this by sanitizing info.index before indirectly using it to index
vdev-&gt;region

Notice that given that speculation windows are large, the policy is
to kill the speculation on the first load and not worry if it can be
completed with a dependent load/store [1].

commit dea39aca1d7aef1e2b95b07edeacf04cc8863a2e upstream.

The skb size calculation in lan78xx_tx_bh is in race with the start_xmit,
which could lead to rare kernel oopses. So protect the whole skb walk with
a spin lock. As a benefit we can unlink the skb directly.

This patch was tested on Raspberry Pi 3B+

commit dea39aca1d7aef1e2b95b07edeacf04cc8863a2e upstream.

The skb size calculation in lan78xx_tx_bh is in race with the start_xmit,
which could lead to rare kernel oopses. So protect the whole skb walk with
a spin lock. As a benefit we can unlink the skb directly.

This patch was tested on Raspberry Pi 3B+

commit 9a98302de19991d51e067b88750585203b2a3ab6 upstream.

Without this patch, firmware will not run properly on rtl8821ae, and it
causes bad user experience. For example, bad connection performance with
low rate, higher power consumption, and so on.

rtl8821ae uses two kinds of firmwares for normal and WoWlan cases, and
each firmware has firmware data buffer and size individually. Original
code always overwrite size of normal firmware rtlpriv-&gt;rtlhal.fwsize, and
this mismatch causes firmware checksum error, then firmware can't start.

In this situation, driver gives message "Firmware is not ready to run!".
