commit 58ef15b765af0d2cbe6799ec564f1dc485010ab8 upstream.

devm semantics arrange for resources to be torn down when
device-driver-probe fails or when device-driver-release completes.
Similar to devm_memremap_pages() there is no need to support an explicit
remove operation when the users properly adhere to devm semantics.

Note that devm_kzalloc() automatically handles allocating node-local
memory.

<content type='text'>
commit a95c90f1e2c253b280385ecf3d4ebfe476926b28 upstream.

The last step before devm_memremap_pages() returns success is to allocate
a release action, devm_memremap_pages_release(), to tear the entire setup
down.  However, the result from devm_add_action() is not checked.

Checking the error from devm_add_action() is not enough.  The api
currently relies on the fact that the percpu_ref it is using is killed by
the time the devm_memremap_pages_release() is run.  Rather than continue
this awkward situation, offload the responsibility of killing the
percpu_ref to devm_memremap_pages_release() directly.  This allows
devm_memremap_pages() to do the right thing relative to init failures and
shutdown.

Without this change we could fail to register the teardown of
devm_memremap_pages().  The likelihood of hitting this failure is tiny as
small memory allocations almost always succeed.  However, the impact of
the failure is large given any future reconfiguration, or disable/enable,
of an nvdimm namespace will fail forever as subsequent calls to
devm_memremap_pages() will fail to setup the pgmap_radix since there will
be stale entries for the physical address range.

An argument could be made to require that the -&gt;kill() operation be set in
the @pgmap arg rather than passed in separately.  However, it helps code
readability, tracking the lifetime of a given instance, to be able to grep
the kill routine directly at the devm_memremap_pages() call site.

<title>binder: fix use-after-free due to ksys_close() during fdget()</title>

commit 80cd795630d6526ba729a089a435bf74a57af927 upstream.

44d8047f1d8 ("binder: use standard functions to allocate fds")
exposed a pre-existing issue in the binder driver.

fdget() is used in ksys_ioctl() as a performance optimization.
One of the rules associated with fdget() is that ksys_close() must
not be called between the fdget() and the fdput(). There is a case
where this requirement is not met in the binder driver which results
in the reference count dropping to 0 when the device is still in
use. This can result in use-after-free or other issues.

If userpace has passed a file-descriptor for the binder driver using
a BINDER_TYPE_FDA object, then kys_close() is called on it when
handling a binder_ioctl(BC_FREE_BUFFER) command. This violates
the assumptions for using fdget().

The problem is fixed by deferring the close using task_work_add(). A
new variant of __close_fd() was created that returns a struct file
with a reference. The fput() is deferred instead of using ksys_close().

<title>platform-msi: Free descriptors in platform_msi_domain_free()</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 81b1e6e6a8590a19257e37a1633bec098d499c57 upstream.

Since the addition of platform MSI support, there were two helpers
supposed to allocate/free IRQs for a device:

    platform_msi_domain_alloc_irqs()
    platform_msi_domain_free_irqs()

In these helpers, IRQ descriptors are allocated in the "alloc" routine
while they are freed in the "free" one.

Later, two other helpers have been added to handle IRQ domains on top
of MSI domains:

    platform_msi_domain_alloc()
    platform_msi_domain_free()

Seen from the outside, the logic is pretty close with the former
helpers and people used it with the same logic as before: a
platform_msi_domain_alloc() call should be balanced with a
platform_msi_domain_free() call. While this is probably what was
intended to do, the platform_msi_domain_free() does not remove/free
the IRQ descriptor(s) created/inserted in
platform_msi_domain_alloc().

One effect of such situation is that removing a module that requested
an IRQ will let one orphaned IRQ descriptor (with an allocated MSI
entry) in the device descriptors list. Next time the module will be
inserted back, one will observe that the allocation will happen twice
in the MSI domain, one time for the remaining descriptor, one time for
the new one. It also has the side effect to quickly overshoot the
maximum number of allocated MSI and then prevent any module requesting
an interrupt in the same domain to be inserted anymore.

This situation has been met with loops of insertion/removal of the
mvpp2.ko module (requesting 15 MSIs each time).

Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "The biggest part is a series of reverts for the macro based GCC
  inlining workarounds. It caused regressions in distro build and other
  kernel tooling environments, and the GCC project was very receptive to
  fixing the underlying inliner weaknesses - so as time ran out we
  decided to do a reasonably straightforward revert of the patches. The
  plan is to rely on the 'asm inline' GCC 9 feature, which might be
  backported to GCC 8 and could thus become reasonably widely available
  on modern distros.

  Other than those reverts, there's misc fixes from all around the
  place.

  I wish our final x86 pull request for v4.20 was smaller..."
