[ Upstream commit 4a5dc632e0b603ec1cbbf87b78de86b4b6359cff ]

Originally, `Atomic::from_ptr()` requires `T` being a `Sync` because I
thought having the ability to do `from_ptr()` meant multiplle
`&amp;Atomic&lt;T&gt;`s shared by different threads, which was identical (or
similar) to multiple `&amp;T`s shared by different threads. Hence `T` was
required to be `Sync`. However this is not true, since `&amp;Atomic&lt;T&gt;` is
not the same at `&amp;T`. Moreover, having this bound makes `Atomic::&lt;*mut
T&gt;::from_ptr()` impossible, which is definitely not intended. Therefore
remove the `T: Sync` bound.

<title>cpufreq: Pass the policy to cpufreq_driver-&gt;adjust_perf()</title>

[ Upstream commit c03791085adcd61fa9b766ab303c7d0941d7378d ]

cpufreq_cpu_get() can sleep on PREEMPT_RT in presence of concurrent
writer(s), however amd-pstate depends on fetching the cpudata via the
policy's driver data which necessitates grabbing the reference.

Since schedutil governor can call "cpufreq_driver-&gt;update_perf()"
during sched_tick/enqueue/dequeue with rq_lock held and IRQs disabled,
fetching the policy object using the cpufreq_cpu_get() helper in the
scheduler fast-path leads to "BUG: scheduling while atomic" on
PREEMPT_RT [1].

Pass the cached cpufreq policy object in sg_policy to the update_perf()
instead of just the CPU. The CPU can be inferred using "policy-&gt;cpu".

The lifetime of cpufreq_policy object outlasts that of the governor and
the cpufreq driver (allocated when the CPU is onlined and only reclaimed
when the CPU is offlined / the CPU device is removed) which makes it
safe to be referenced throughout the governor's lifetime.

commit 68bf102226cf2199dc609b67c1e847cad4de4b57 upstream

When a field has been initialized, `init!`/`pin_init!` create a reference
or pinned reference to the field so it can be accessed later during the
initialization of other fields. However, the reference it created is
incorrectly `&amp;'static` rather than just the scope of the initializer.

This means that you can do

    init!(Foo {
        a: 1,
        _: {
            let b: &amp;'static u32 = a;
        }
    })

which is unsound.

This is caused by `&amp;mut (*$slot).$ident`, which actually allows arbitrary
lifetime, so this is effectively `'static`.

Fix it by adding `let_binding` method on `DropGuard` to shorten lifetime.
This results in exactly what we want for these accessors. The safety and
invariant comments of `DropGuard` have been reworked; instead of reasoning
about what caller can do with the guard, express it in a way that the
ownership is transferred to the guard and `forget` takes it back, so the
unsafe operations within the `DropGuard` can be more easily justified.

<title>rust: dma: remove DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING from public attrs</title>

commit 18fb5f1f0289b8217c0c43d54d12bccc201dd640 upstream.

When DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING is passed to dma_alloc_attrs(), the
returned CPU address is not a pointer to the allocated memory but an
opaque handle (e.g. struct page *).

Coherent&lt;T&gt; (or CoherentAllocation&lt;T&gt; respectively) stores this value as
NonNull&lt;T&gt; and exposes methods that dereference it and even modify its
contents.

Remove the flag from the public attrs module such that drivers cannot
pass it to Coherent&lt;T&gt; (or CoherentAllocation&lt;T&gt; respectively) in the
first place.

Instead DMA_ATTR_NO_KERNEL_MAPPING can be supported with an additional
opaque type (e.g. CoherentHandle) which does not provide access to the
allocated memory.

The functions `[Pin]Init::__[pinned_]init` and `ptr::write` called from
the `init!` macro require the passed pointer to be aligned. This fact is
ensured by the creation of field accessors to previously initialized
fields.

Since we missed this very important fact from the beginning [1],
document it in the code.

[ Upstream commit 8121353a4bf8e38afee26299419a78ec108e14a6 ]

The Rust `Regulator` abstraction uses `NonNull` to wrap the underlying
`struct regulator` pointer. When `CONFIG_REGULATOR` is disabled, the C
stub for `regulator_get` returns `NULL`. `from_err_ptr` does not treat
`NULL` as an error, so it was passed to `NonNull::new_unchecked`,
causing undefined behavior.

Fix this by using a raw pointer `*mut bindings::regulator` instead of
`NonNull`. This allows `inner` to be `NULL` when `CONFIG_REGULATOR` is
disabled, and leverages the C stubs which are designed to handle `NULL`
or are no-ops.

[ Upstream commit 8121353a4bf8e38afee26299419a78ec108e14a6 ]

The Rust `Regulator` abstraction uses `NonNull` to wrap the underlying
`struct regulator` pointer. When `CONFIG_REGULATOR` is disabled, the C
stub for `regulator_get` returns `NULL`. `from_err_ptr` does not treat
`NULL` as an error, so it was passed to `NonNull::new_unchecked`,
causing undefined behavior.

Fix this by using a raw pointer `*mut bindings::regulator` instead of
`NonNull`. This allows `inner` to be `NULL` when `CONFIG_REGULATOR` is
disabled, and leverages the C stubs which are designed to handle `NULL`
or are no-ops.

commit 3ac88a9948792b092a4b11323e2abd1ecbe0cc68 upstream.

If `CONFIG_BLOCK` is disabled, the following warnings are displayed
during build:

  warning: struct `NullTerminatedFormatter` is never constructed
    --&gt; ../rust/kernel/str.rs:667:19
      |

      |
      = note: `#[warn(dead_code)]` (part of `#[warn(unused)]`) on by default

  673 |     pub(crate) fn new(buffer: &amp;'a mut [u8]) -&gt; Option&lt;NullTerminatedFormatter&lt;'a&gt;&gt; {

Fix them by making `NullTerminatedFormatter` public, as it could be
useful for drivers anyway.

<title>rust: list: Add unsafe blocks for container_of and safety comments</title>

[ Upstream commit 97b281d7edb2ae662365be2809cd728470119720 ]

impl_list_item_mod.rs calls container_of! without unsafe blocks at a
couple of places. Since container_of! is unsafe, the blocks are strictly
necessary.

The problem was so far not visible because the "unsafe-op-in-unsafe-fn"
check is a lint rather than a hard compiler error, and Rust suppresses
lints triggered inside of a macro from another crate.

Thus, the error becomes only visible once someone from within the kernel
crate tries to use linked lists:

    error[E0133]: call to unsafe function `core::ptr::mut_ptr::&lt;impl *mut T&gt;::byte_sub`
    is unsafe and requires unsafe block
       --&gt; rust/kernel/lib.rs:252:29
        |
    252 |           let container_ptr = field_ptr.byte_sub(offset).cast::&lt;$Container&gt;();

    100 | | }
        | |_- in this macro invocation
        |

        = note: requested on the command line with `-D unsafe-op-in-unsafe-fn`
        = note: this error originates in the macro `$crate::container_of` which comes
        from the expansion of the macro `impl_list_item`

Therefore, add unsafe blocks to container_of! calls to fix the issue.

[ As discussed, let's fix the build for those that want to use the
  macro within the `kernel` crate now and we can discuss the proper
  safety comments afterwards. Thus I removed the ones from the patch.

  However, we cannot just avoid the comments with `CLIPPY=1`, so I
  provided placeholders for now, like we did in the past. They were
  also needed for an `unsafe impl`.

  While I am not happy about it, it isn't worse than the current
  status (the comments were meant to be there), and at least this
  shows what is missing -- our pre-existing "good first issue" [1]
  may motivate new contributors to complete them properly.

  Finally, I moved one of the existing safety comments one line down
  so that Clippy could locate it.
