[ Upstream commit 02d954c0fdf91845169cdacc7405b120f90afe01 ]

When a process reduces its number of threads or clears bits in its CPU
affinity mask, the mm_cid allocation should eventually converge towards
smaller values.

However, the change introduced by:

commit 7e019dcc470f ("sched: Improve cache locality of RSEQ concurrency
IDs for intermittent workloads")

adds a per-mm/CPU recent_cid which is never unset unless a thread
migrates.

This is a tradeoff between:

A) Preserving cache locality after a transition from many threads to few
   threads, or after reducing the hamming weight of the allowed CPU mask.

B) Making the mm_cid upper bounds wrt nr threads and allowed CPU mask
   easy to document and understand.

C) Allowing applications to eventually react to mm_cid compaction after
   reduction of the nr threads or allowed CPU mask, making the tracking
   of mm_cid compaction easier by shrinking it back towards 0 or not.

D) Making sure applications that periodically reduce and then increase
   again the nr threads or allowed CPU mask still benefit from good
   cache locality with mm_cid.

Introduce the following changes:

* After shrinking the number of threads or reducing the number of
  allowed CPUs, reduce the value of max_nr_cid so expansion of CID
  allocation will preserve cache locality if the number of threads or
  allowed CPUs increase again.

* Only re-use a recent_cid if it is within the max_nr_cid upper bound,
  else find the first available CID.

[ Upstream commit 9b6412e6979f6f9e0632075f8f008937b5cd4efd ]

Xiumei reported hitting the WARN in xfrm6_tunnel_net_exit while
running tests that boil down to:
 - create a pair of netns
 - run a basic TCP test over ipcomp6
 - delete the pair of netns

The xfrm_state found on spi_byaddr was not deleted at the time we
delete the netns, because we still have a reference on it. This
lingering reference comes from a secpath (which holds a ref on the
xfrm_state), which is still attached to an skb. This skb is not
leaked, it ends up on sk_receive_queue and then gets defer-free'd by
skb_attempt_defer_free.

The problem happens when we defer freeing an skb (push it on one CPU's
defer_list), and don't flush that list before the netns is deleted. In
that case, we still have a reference on the xfrm_state that we don't
expect at this point.

We already drop the skb's dst in the TCP receive path when it's no
longer needed, so let's also drop the secpath. At this point,
tcp_filter has already called into the LSM hooks that may require the
secpath, so it should not be needed anymore. However, in some of those
places, the MPTCP extension has just been attached to the skb, so we
cannot simply drop all extensions.

[ Upstream commit 4b5a28b38c4a0106c64416a1b2042405166b26ce ]

Add dedicated helper for finding devices by hardware address when
holding rtnl_lock, similar to existing dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu(). This prevents
PROVE_LOCKING warnings when rtnl_lock is held but RCU read lock is not.

Extract common address comparison logic into dev_addr_cmp().

[ Upstream commit e0a5e2bba38aa61a900934b45d6e846e0a6d7524 ]

The regulator framework uses current limits, but the PSE standard and
known PSE controllers rely on power limits. Instead of converting
current to power within each driver, perform the conversion in the PSE
core. This avoids redundancy in driver implementation and aligns better
with the standard, simplifying driver development.

Remove at the same time the _pse_ethtool_get_status() function which is
not needed anymore.

[ Upstream commit dfa2f4d5f9e5d757700cefa8ee480099889f1c69 ]

pci_intx() is a hybrid function which can sometimes be managed through
devres. This hybrid nature is undesirable.

Since all users of pci_intx() have by now been ported either to
always-managed pcim_intx() or never-managed pci_intx_unmanaged(), the
devres functionality can be removed from pci_intx().

Consequently, pci_intx_unmanaged() is now redundant, because pci_intx()
itself is now unmanaged.

Remove the devres functionality from pci_intx(). Have all users of
pci_intx_unmanaged() call pci_intx(). Remove pci_intx_unmanaged().

<title>PCI: Export pci_intx_unmanaged() and pcim_intx()</title>

[ Upstream commit f546e8033d8f3e45d49622f04ca2fde650b80f6d ]

pci_intx() is a hybrid function which sometimes performs devres operations,
depending on whether pcim_enable_device() has been used to enable the
pci_dev. This sometimes-managed nature of the function is problematic.
Notably, it causes the function to allocate under some circumstances which
makes it unusable from interrupt context.

Export pcim_intx() (which is always managed) and rename __pcim_intx()
(which is never managed) to pci_intx_unmanaged() and export it as well.

Then all callers of pci_intx() can be ported to the version they need,
depending whether they use pci_enable_device() or pcim_enable_device().

[ Upstream commit cb7380de9e4cbc9a24216b722ec50e092ae83036 ]

The C kernel helpers for evaluating C Strings were positioned where they
were visible to assembly inclusion, which was not intended. Move them
into the kernel and C-only area of the header so future changes won't
confuse the assembler.

dev-&gt;nd_net can change, readers should either
use rcu_read_lock() or RTNL.

We currently use a generic helper, dev_net() with
no debugging support. We probably have many hidden bugs.

Add dev_net_rcu() helper for callers using rcu_read_lock()
protection.
