[ Upstream commit e3f5df762d4a6ef6326c3c09bc9f89ea8a2eab2c ]

In preparation for libnvdimm growing new restrictions to detect section
conflicts between persistent memory regions, enable nfit_test to
allocate aligned resources. Use a gen_pool to allocate nfit_test's fake
resources in a separate address space from the virtual translation of
the same.

[ Upstream commit 8800cd031af085807028656c6ba7eb7908d78262 ]

There are two unit test cases, which should encode
TYPEDEF type, but instead encode PTR type.
The error is flagged out after enforcing name
checking in the previous patch.

commit afd594240806acc138cf696c09f2f4829d55d02f upstream.

When patching in a new sequence for the first insn of a subprog, the start
 of that subprog does not change (it's the first insn of the sequence), so
 adjust_subprog_starts should check start &lt;= off (rather than &lt; off).
Also added a test to test_verifier.c (it's essentially the syz reproducer).

<title>objtool: Fix segfault in .cold detection with -ffunction-sections</title>

[ Upstream commit 22566c1603030f0a036ad564634b064ad1a55db2 ]

Because find_symbol_by_name() traverses the same lists as
read_symbols(), changing sym-&gt;name in place without copying it affects
the result of find_symbol_by_name().  In the case where a ".cold"
function precedes its parent in sec-&gt;symbol_list, it can result in a
function being considered a parent of itself. This leads to function
length being set to 0 and other consequent side-effects including a
segfault in add_switch_table().  The effects of this bug are only
visible when building with -ffunction-sections in KCFLAGS.

Fix by copying the search string instead of modifying it in place.

[ Upstream commit 0b9301fb632f7111a3293a30cc5b20f1b82ed08d ]

If read_symbols() fails during second list traversal (the one dealing
with ".cold" subfunctions) it frees the symbol, but never deletes it
from the list/hash_table resulting in symbol being freed again in
elf_close(). Fix it by just returning an error, leaving cleanup to
elf_close().

<title>perf tools: Restore proper cwd on return from mnt namespace</title>

[ Upstream commit b01c1f69c8660eaeab7d365cd570103c5c073a02 ]

When reporting on 'record' server we try to retrieve/use the mnt
namespace of the profiled tasks. We use following API with cookie to
hold the return namespace, roughly:

  nsinfo__mountns_enter(struct nsinfo *nsi, struct nscookie *nc)
    setns(newns, 0);
  ...
  new ns related open..
  ...
  nsinfo__mountns_exit(struct nscookie *nc)
    setns(nc-&gt;oldns)

Once finished we setns to old namespace, which also sets the current
working directory (cwd) to "/", trashing the cwd we had.

This is mostly fine, because we use absolute paths almost everywhere,
but it screws up 'perf diff':

  # perf diff
  failed to open perf.data: No such file or directory  (try 'perf record' first)
  ...

Adding the current working directory to be part of the cookie and
restoring it in the nsinfo__mountns_exit call.
