commit 1a1c130ab7575498eed5bcf7220037ae09cd1f8a upstream.

The following problem has been reported by George Kennedy:

 Since commit 7fef431be9c9 ("mm/page_alloc: place pages to tail
 in __free_pages_core()") the following use after free occurs
 intermittently when ACPI tables are accessed.

 BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ibft_init+0x134/0xc49
 Read of size 4 at addr ffff8880be453004 by task swapper/0/1
 CPU: 3 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 5.12.0-rc1-7a7fd0d #1

 ACPI tables mapped via kmap() do not have their mapped pages
 reserved and the pages can be "stolen" by the buddy allocator.

Apparently, on the affected system, the ACPI table in question is
not located in "reserved" memory, like ACPI NVS or ACPI Data, that
will not be used by the buddy allocator, so the memory occupied by
that table has to be explicitly reserved to prevent the buddy
allocator from using it.

In order to address this problem, rearrange the initialization of the
ACPI tables on x86 to locate the initial tables earlier and reserve
the memory occupied by them.

The other architectures using ACPI should not be affected by this
change.

[ Upstream commit c95b7595f85c688d5c569ddbbd6ab6a4bdae2f36 ]

In general, it is not correct to call pm_generic_suspend(),
pm_generic_suspend_late() and pm_generic_suspend_noirq() during the
hibernation's "poweroff" transition, because device drivers may
provide special callbacks to be invoked then and the wrappers in
question cause system suspend callbacks to be run.  Unfortunately,
that happens in the ACPI PM domain and ACPI LPSS.

To address this potential issue, introduce "poweroff" callbacks
for the ACPI PM and LPSS that will use pm_generic_poweroff(),
pm_generic_poweroff_late() and pm_generic_poweroff_noirq() as
appropriate.

[ Upstream commit 3cd7957e85e67120bb9f6bfb75d81dcc19af282b ]

First, after a previous change causing all runtime-suspended devices
in the ACPI PM domain (and ACPI LPSS devices) to be resumed before
creating a snapshot image of memory during hibernation, it is not
necessary to worry about the case in which them might be left in
runtime-suspend any more, so get rid of the code related to that from
ACPI PM domain and ACPI LPSS hibernation callbacks.

Second, it is not correct to use pm_generic_resume_early() and
acpi_subsys_resume_noirq() in hibernation "restore" callbacks (which
currently happens in the ACPI PM domain and ACPI LPSS), so introduce
proper _restore_late and _restore_noirq callbacks for the ACPI PM
domain and ACPI LPSS.

[ Upstream commit dfd6f9ad36368b8dbd5f5a2b2f0a4705ae69a323 ]

clang gets confused by an uninitialized variable in what looks
to it like a never executed code path:

arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c:618:13: error: variable 'polarity' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized]
        polarity = polarity ? ACPI_ACTIVE_LOW : ACPI_ACTIVE_HIGH;
                   ^~~~~~~~
arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c:606:32: note: initialize the variable 'polarity' to silence this warning
        int rc, irq, trigger, polarity;
                                      ^
                                       = 0
arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c:617:12: error: variable 'trigger' is uninitialized when used here [-Werror,-Wuninitialized]

                             = 0

This is unfortunately a design decision in clang and won't be fixed.

Changing the acpi_get_override_irq() macro to an inline function
reliably avoids the issue.

The fwnode graph API is preferred over the ACPI graph API. Therefore
make the ACPI graph API private, and use it as a back-end for the
fwnode graph API only.

Unused functionality is removed while the functionality actually used
remains the same.

The fwnode graph API is preferred over the ACPI graph API. Therefore
make the ACPI graph API private, and use it as a back-end for the
fwnode graph API only.

Unused functionality is removed while the functionality actually used
remains the same.

Convert all users of struct acpi_reference_args to more generic
fwnode_reference_args. This will

 1) avoid an ACPI specific references to device nodes with integer
    arguments as well as

 2) allow making references to nodes other than device nodes in ACPI.

As a by-product, convert the fwnode interger arguments to u64. The
arguments were 64-bit integers on ACPI but the fwnode arguments were
just 32-bit.

Sometimes memory resource may be overlapping with
SystemMemory Operation Region by design, for example if the
memory region is used as a mailbox for communication with a
firmware in the system. One occasion of such mailboxes is
USB Type-C Connector System Software Interface (UCSI).

With regions like that, it is important that the driver is
able to map the memory with the requirements it has. For
example, the driver should be allowed to map the memory as
non-cached memory. However, if the operation region has been
accessed before the driver has mapped the memory, the memory
has been marked as write-back by the time the driver is
loaded. That means the driver will fail to map the memory
if it expects non-cached memory.

To work around the problem, introducing helper that the
drivers can use to temporarily deactivate (unmap)
SystemMemory Operation Regions that overlap with their
IO memory.
