commit 591b6bb605785c12a21e8b07a08a277065b655a5 upstream.

Several legacy devices such as Geode-based Cisco ASA appliances
and DB800 development board do possess CS5536 IDE controller
with different PCI id than existing one. Using pata_generic is
not always feasible as at least DB800 requires MSR quirk from
pata_cs5536 to be used with vendor firmware.

commit fbf1c41fc0f4d3574ac2377245efd666c1fa3075 upstream.

Commit 0a94efb5acbb ("workqueue: implicit ordered attribute should be
overridable") introduced a __WQ_ORDERED_EXPLICIT flag but gave it the
same value as __WQ_LEGACY.  I don't believe these were intended to
mean the same thing, so renumber __WQ_ORDERED_EXPLICIT.

commit 67a2e213e7e937c41c52ab5bc46bf3f4de469f6e upstream.

This was found during userspace fuzzing test when a large size dma cma

<title>mm: cma: split cma-reserved in dmesg log</title>

commit e48322abb061d75096fe52d71886b237e7ae7bfb upstream.

When the system boots up, in the dmesg logs we can see the memory
statistics along with total reserved as below.  Memory: 458840k/458840k
available, 65448k reserved, 0K highmem

When CMA is enabled, still the total reserved memory remains the same.
However, the CMA memory is not considered as reserved.  But, when we see
/proc/meminfo, the CMA memory is part of free memory.  This creates
confusion.  This patch corrects the problem by properly subtracting the
CMA reserved memory from the total reserved memory in dmesg logs.

Below is the dmesg snapshot from an arm based device with 512MB RAM and
12MB single CMA region.

Before this change:
  Memory: 458840k/458840k available, 65448k reserved, 0K highmem

After this change:
  Memory: 458840k/458840k available, 53160k reserved, 12288k cma-reserved, 0K highmem

<title>lib: bitmap: add alignment offset for bitmap_find_next_zero_area()</title>

commit 5e19b013f55a884c59a14391b22138899d1cc4cc upstream.

Add a bitmap_find_next_zero_area_off() function which works like
bitmap_find_next_zero_area() function except it allows an offset to be
specified when alignment is checked.  This lets caller request a bit such
that its number plus the offset is aligned according to the mask.

commit dd1c1f2f2028a7b851f701fc6a8ebe39dcb95e7c upstream.

This was reported many times, and this was even mentioned in commit
52ee2dfdd4f5 ("pids: refactor vnr/nr_ns helpers to make them safe") but
somehow nobody bothered to fix the obvious problem: task_tgid_nr_ns() is
not safe because task-&gt;group_leader points to nowhere after the exiting
task passes exit_notify(), rcu_read_lock() can not help.

We really need to change __unhash_process() to nullify group_leader,
parent, and real_parent, but this needs some cleanups.  Until then we
can turn task_tgid_nr_ns() into another user of __task_pid_nr_ns() and
fix the problem.

commit 0a94efb5acbb6980d7c9ab604372d93cd507e4d8 upstream.

5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be
ordered") automatically enabled ordered attribute for unbound
workqueues w/ max_active == 1.  Because ordered workqueues reject
max_active and some attribute changes, this implicit ordered mode
broke cases where the user creates an unbound workqueue w/ max_active
== 1 and later explicitly changes the related attributes.

This patch distinguishes explicit and implicit ordered setting and
overrides from attribute changes if implict.

[ Upstream commit 2d39b3cd34e6d323720d4c61bd714f5ae202c022 ]

Since commit 00cd5c37afd5 ("ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init") we
can now trace init processes.  init is initially protected with
SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE which will prevent fatal signals such as SIGSTOP, but
there are a number of paths during tracing where SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can
be implicitly cleared.

This can result in init becoming stoppable/killable after tracing.  For
example, running:

  while true; do kill -STOP 1; done &amp;
  strace -p 1

and then stopping strace and the kill loop will result in init being
left in state TASK_STOPPED.  Sending SIGCONT to init will resume it, but
init will now respond to future SIGSTOP signals rather than ignoring
them.

Make sure that when setting SIGNAL_STOP_CONTINUED/SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED
that we don't clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE.

[ Upstream commit bb1107f7c6052c863692a41f78c000db792334bf ]

Andrey Konovalov has reported the following warning triggered by the
syzkaller fuzzer.

  WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 9935 at mm/page_alloc.c:3511 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x159c/0x1e20

The issue is caused by a lack of size check for the request size in
ep_write_iter which should be fixed.  It, however, points to another
problem, that SLUB defines KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE too large because the its
KMALLOC_SHIFT_MAX is (MAX_ORDER + PAGE_SHIFT) which means that the
resulting page allocator request might be MAX_ORDER which is too large
(see __alloc_pages_slowpath).

The same applies to the SLOB allocator which allows even larger sizes.
Make sure that they are capped properly and never request more than
MAX_ORDER order.
