commit 704620afc70cf47abb9d6a1a57f3825d2bca49cf upstream.

When reading an extra descriptor, we need to properly check the minimum
and maximum size allowed, to prevent from invalid data being sent by a
device.

commit 0145b50566e7de5637e80ecba96c7f0e6fff1aad upstream.

Before this commit sensor_hub_input_attr_get_raw_value() failed to take
the signedness of 16 and 8 bit values into account, returning e.g.
65436 instead of -100 for the z-axis reading of an accelerometer.

This commit adds a new is_signed parameter to the function and makes all
callers pass the appropriate value for this.

While at it, this commit also fixes up some neighboring lines where
statements were needlessly split over 2 lines to improve readability.

commit a4310fa2f24687888ce80fdb0e88583561a23700 upstream.

This patch factors out all non sending parts of can_get_echo_skb() into
a seperate function __can_get_echo_skb(), so that it can be re-used in
an upcoming patch.

<title>USB: Wait for extra delay time after USB_PORT_FEAT_RESET for quirky hub</title>

commit 781f0766cc41a9dd2e5d118ef4b1d5d89430257b upstream.

Devices connected under Terminus Technology Inc. Hub (1a40:0101) may
fail to work after the system resumes from suspend:
[  206.063325] usb 3-2.4: reset full-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd
[  206.143691] usb 3-2.4: device descriptor read/64, error -32
[  206.351671] usb 3-2.4: device descriptor read/64, error -32

Info for this hub:
T:  Bus=03 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=01 Cnt=01 Dev#=  2 Spd=480 MxCh= 4
D:  Ver= 2.00 Cls=09(hub  ) Sub=00 Prot=01 MxPS=64 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=1a40 ProdID=0101 Rev=01.11
S:  Product=USB 2.0 Hub
C:  #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=e0 MxPwr=100mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 1 Cls=09(hub  ) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=hub

Some expirements indicate that the USB devices connected to the hub are
innocent, it's the hub itself is to blame. The hub needs extra delay
time after it resets its port.

Hence wait for extra delay, if the device is connected to this quirky
hub.

commit 35b69a420bfb56b7b74cb635ea903db05e357bec upstream.

Add support for platforms where pit_shutdown() doesn't work because of a
quirk in the PIT emulation. On these platforms setting the counter register
to zero causes the PIT to start running again, negating the shutdown.

Provide a global variable that controls whether the counter register is
zero'ed, which platform specific code can override.

commit 36156f9241cb0f9e37d998052873ca7501ad4b36 upstream.

Add of_get_compatible_child() helper that can be used to lookup
compatible child nodes.

Several drivers currently use of_find_compatible_node() to lookup child
nodes while failing to notice that the of_find_ functions search the
entire tree depth-first (from a given start node) and therefore can
match unrelated nodes. The fact that these functions also drop a
reference to the node they start searching from (e.g. the parent node)
is typically also overlooked, something which can lead to use-after-free
bugs.

commit 94e6992bb560be8bffb47f287194adf070b57695 upstream.

If the read is large enough, we end up spinning in the messenger:

  libceph: osd0 192.168.122.1:6801 io error
  libceph: osd0 192.168.122.1:6801 io error
  libceph: osd0 192.168.122.1:6801 io error

This is a receive side limit, so only reads were affected.

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
 - eagerfpu is still optional (but enabled by default) so disable KVM if
   eagerfpu is disabled
 - Remove one additional use of KVM_REQ_DEACTIVATE_FPU which was
   removed earlier upstream in commit c592b5734706
   "x86/fpu: Remove use_eager_fpu()"
 - Adjust context]
