TLV_SET is called with a data pointer and a len parameter that tells us
how many bytes are pointed to by data. When invoking memcpy() we need
to careful to only copy len bytes.

Previously we would copy TLV_LENGTH(len) bytes which would copy an extra
4 bytes past the end of the data pointer which newer GCC versions
complain about.

We still want to ensure any padding bytes at the end are initialised, do
this with a explicit memset() rather than copy bytes past the end of
data. Apply the same logic to TCM_SET.

<title>inet: switch IP ID generator to siphash</title>

[ Upstream commit df453700e8d81b1bdafdf684365ee2b9431fb702 ]

According to Amit Klein and Benny Pinkas, IP ID generation is too weak
and might be used by attackers.

Even with recent net_hash_mix() fix (netns: provide pure entropy for net_hash_mix())
having 64bit key and Jenkins hash is risky.

It is time to switch to siphash and its 128bit keys.

[ Upstream commit a89bfc5d9a0732d84b4de311e27133daa0586316 ]

Buffers passed to spi_sync() must be dma-safe even for tiny buffers since
some SPI controllers use DMA for all transfers.

Example splat with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled:

[ Upstream commit b699cce1604e828f19c39845252626eb78cdf38a ]

The rcu_head_after_call_rcu() function reads the rhp-&gt;func pointer twice,
which can result in a false-positive WARN_ON_ONCE() if the callback
were passed to call_rcu() between the two reads.  Although racing
rcu_head_after_call_rcu() with call_rcu() is to be a dubious use case
(the return value is not reliable in that case), intermittent and
irreproducible warnings are also quite dubious.  This commit therefore
uses a single READ_ONCE() to pick up the value of rhp-&gt;func once, then
tests that value twice, thus guaranteeing consistent processing within
rcu_head_after_call_rcu()().

Neverthless, racing rcu_head_after_call_rcu() with call_rcu() is still
a dubious use case.

<title>timekeeping: Force upper bound for setting CLOCK_REALTIME</title>

[ Upstream commit 7a8e61f8478639072d402a26789055a4a4de8f77 ]

Several people reported testing failures after setting CLOCK_REALTIME close
to the limits of the kernel internal representation in nanoseconds,
i.e. year 2262.

The failures are exposed in subsequent operations, i.e. when arming timers
or when the advancing CLOCK_MONOTONIC makes the calculation of
CLOCK_REALTIME overflow into negative space.

Now people start to paper over the underlying problem by clamping
calculations to the valid range, but that's just wrong because such
workarounds will prevent detection of real issues as well.

It is reasonable to force an upper bound for the various methods of setting
CLOCK_REALTIME. Year 2262 is the absolute upper bound. Assume a maximum
uptime of 30 years which is plenty enough even for esoteric embedded
systems. That results in an upper bound of year 2232 for setting the time.

Once that limit is reached in reality this limit is only a small part of
the problem space. But until then this stops people from trying to paper
over the problem at the wrong places.

xen_biovec_phys_mergeable() only needs .bv_page of the 2nd bio bvec
for checking if the two bvecs can be merged, so pass page to
xen_biovec_phys_mergeable() directly.

No function change.

<title>HID: core: move Usage Page concatenation to Main item</title>

[ Upstream commit 58e75155009cc800005629955d3482f36a1e0eec ]

As seen on some USB wireless keyboards manufactured by Primax, the HID
parser was using some assumptions that are not always true. In this case
it's s the fact that, inside the scope of a main item, an Usage Page
will always precede an Usage.

The spec is not pretty clear as 6.2.2.7 states "Any usage that follows
is interpreted as a Usage ID and concatenated with the Usage Page".
While 6.2.2.8 states "When the parser encounters a main item it
concatenates the last declared Usage Page with a Usage to form a
complete usage value." Being somewhat contradictory it was decided to
match Window's implementation, which follows 6.2.2.8.

In summary, the patch moves the Usage Page concatenation from the local
item parsing function to the main item parsing function.

<title>iio: ad_sigma_delta: Properly handle SPI bus locking vs CS assertion</title>

[ Upstream commit df1d80aee963480c5c2938c64ec0ac3e4a0df2e0 ]

For devices from the SigmaDelta family we need to keep CS low when doing a
conversion, since the device will use the MISO line as a interrupt to
indicate that the conversion is complete.

This is why the driver locks the SPI bus and when the SPI bus is locked
keeps as long as a conversion is going on. The current implementation gets
one small detail wrong though. CS is only de-asserted after the SPI bus is
unlocked. This means it is possible for a different SPI device on the same
bus to send a message which would be wrongfully be addressed to the
SigmaDelta device as well. Make sure that the last SPI transfer that is
done while holding the SPI bus lock de-asserts the CS signal.

[ Upstream commit 4dcabece4c3a9f9522127be12cc12cc120399b2f ]

The number of descendant cgroups and the number of dying
descendant cgroups are currently synchronized using the cgroup_mutex.

The number of descendant cgroups will be required by the cgroup v2
freezer, which will use it to determine if a cgroup is frozen
(depending on total number of descendants and number of frozen
descendants). It's not always acceptable to grab the cgroup_mutex,
especially from quite hot paths (e.g. exit()).

To avoid this, let's additionally synchronize these counters using
the css_set_lock.

So, it's safe to read these counters with either cgroup_mutex or
css_set_lock locked, and for changing both locks should be acquired.
