[ Upstream commit 9abefcb1aaa58b9d5aa40a8bb12c87d02415e4c8 ]

A timer was used to restart after the bus-off state, leading to a
relatively large can_restart() executed in an interrupt context,
which in turn sets up pinctrl. When this happens during system boot,
there is a high probability of grabbing the pinctrl_list_mutex,
which is locked already by the probe() of other device, making the
kernel suspect a deadlock condition [1].

To resolve this issue, the restart_timer is replaced by a delayed
work.

<title>mm: remove gup_flags FOLL_WRITE games from __get_user_pages()</title>

[ Upstream commit 19be0eaffa3ac7d8eb6784ad9bdbc7d67ed8e619 ]

This is an ancient bug that was actually attempted to be fixed once
(badly) by me eleven years ago in commit 4ceb5db9757a ("Fix
get_user_pages() race for write access") but that was then undone due to
problems on s390 by commit f33ea7f404e5 ("fix get_user_pages bug").

In the meantime, the s390 situation has long been fixed, and we can now
fix it by checking the pte_dirty() bit properly (and do it better).  The
s390 dirty bit was implemented in abf09bed3cce ("s390/mm: implement
software dirty bits") which made it into v3.9.  Earlier kernels will
have to look at the page state itself.

Also, the VM has become more scalable, and what used a purely
theoretical race back then has become easier to trigger.

To fix it, we introduce a new internal FOLL_COW flag to mark the "yes,
we already did a COW" rather than play racy games with FOLL_WRITE that
is very fundamental, and then use the pte dirty flag to validate that
the FOLL_COW flag is still valid.

<title>fix fault_in_multipages_...() on architectures with no-op access_ok()</title>

[ Upstream commit e23d4159b109167126e5bcd7f3775c95de7fee47 ]

Switching iov_iter fault-in to multipages variants has exposed an old
bug in underlying fault_in_multipages_...(); they break if the range
passed to them wraps around.  Normally access_ok() done by callers will
prevent such (and it's a guaranteed EFAULT - ERR_PTR() values fall into
such a range and they should not point to any valid objects).

However, on architectures where userland and kernel live in different
MMU contexts (e.g. s390) access_ok() is a no-op and on those a range
with a wraparound can reach fault_in_multipages_...().

Since any wraparound means EFAULT there, the fix is trivial - turn
those

    while (uaddr &lt;= end)
	    ...
into

    if (unlikely(uaddr &gt; end))
	    return -EFAULT;
    do
	    ...
    while (uaddr &lt;= end);

<title>fanotify: fix list corruption in fanotify_get_response()</title>

[ Upstream commit 96d41019e3ac55f6f0115b0ce97e4f24a3d636d2 ]

fanotify_get_response() calls fsnotify_remove_event() when it finds that
group is being released from fanotify_release() (bypass_perm is set).

However the event it removes need not be only in the group's notification
queue but it can have already moved to access_list (userspace read the
event before closing the fanotify instance fd) which is protected by a
different lock.  Thus when fsnotify_remove_event() races with
fanotify_release() operating on access_list, the list can get corrupted.

Fix the problem by moving all the logic removing permission events from
the lists to one place - fanotify_release().

Some irqchip drivers need to take the generic chip lock outside of the
irq context.

Provide the irq_gc_{lock_irqsave,unlock_irqrestore}() helpers to allow
one to disable irqs while entering a critical section protected by
gc-&gt;lock.

Note that we do not provide optimized version of these helpers for !SMP,
because they are not called from the hot-path.

[ Upstream commit 332fd7c4fef5f3b166e93decb07fd69eb24f7998 ]

Pass in the irq_chip_generic struct so we can use different readl/writel
settings for each irqchip driver, when appropriate.  Compute
(gc-&gt;reg_base + reg_offset) in the helper function because this is pretty
much what all callers want to do anyway.

Compile-tested using the following configurations:

    at91_dt_defconfig (CONFIG_ATMEL_AIC_IRQ=y)
    sama5_defconfig (CONFIG_ATMEL_AIC5_IRQ=y)
    sunxi_defconfig (CONFIG_ARCH_SUNXI=y)

tb10x (ARC) is untested.

[ Upstream commit 69874ec233871a62e1bc8c89e643993af93a8630 ]

Add the device ID for the PF of the NFP4000.  The device ID for the VF,
0x6003, is already present as PCI_DEVICE_ID_NETRONOME_NFP6000_VF.

<title>Input: i8042 - break load dependency between atkbd/psmouse and i8042</title>

[ Upstream commit 4097461897df91041382ff6fcd2bfa7ee6b2448c ]

As explained in 1407814240-4275-1-git-send-email-decui@microsoft.com we
have a hard load dependency between i8042 and atkbd which prevents
keyboard from working on Gen2 Hyper-V VMs.

&gt; hyperv_keyboard invokes serio_interrupt(), which needs a valid serio
&gt; driver like atkbd.c.  atkbd.c depends on libps2.c because it invokes
&gt; ps2_command().  libps2.c depends on i8042.c because it invokes
&gt; i8042_check_port_owner().  As a result, hyperv_keyboard actually
&gt; depends on i8042.c.
&gt;
&gt; For a Generation 2 Hyper-V VM (meaning no i8042 device emulated), if a
&gt; Linux VM (like Arch Linux) happens to configure CONFIG_SERIO_I8042=m
&gt; rather than =y, atkbd.ko can't load because i8042.ko can't load(due to
&gt; no i8042 device emulated) and finally hyperv_keyboard can't work and
&gt; the user can't input: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/39820
&gt; (Ubuntu/RHEL/SUSE aren't affected since they use CONFIG_SERIO_I8042=y)

To break the dependency we move away from using i8042_check_port_owner()
and instead allow serio port owner specify a mutex that clients should use
to serialize PS/2 command stream.
