[ Upstream commit ad30469a841b50dbb541df4d6971d891f703c297 ]

uniq() will write one command name over another causing the overwritten
string to be leaked. Fix by doing a pass that removes duplicates and a
second that removes the holes.

[ Upstream commit 9dbd5927408c4a0707de73ae9dd9306b184e8fee ]

The FPU &amp; VMX preemption tests do not check for errors returned by the
low-level asm routines, preempt_fpu() / preempt_vsx() respectively.
That means any register corruption detected by the asm routines does not
result in a test failure.

Fix it by returning the return value of the asm routines from the
pthread child routines.

[ Upstream commit 2d3dff577dd0ea8fe9637a13822f7603c4a881c8 ]

The iio_generic_buffer can return garbage values when the total size of
scan data is not a multiple of the largest element in the scan. This can be
demonstrated by reading a scan, consisting, for example of one 4-byte and
one 2-byte element, where the 4-byte element is first in the buffer.

The IIO generic buffer code does not take into account the last two
padding bytes that are needed to ensure that the 4-byte data for next
scan is correctly aligned.

Add the padding bytes required to align the next sample with the scan size.

[ Upstream commit 49d736313d0975ddeb156f4f59801da833f78b30 ]

In function size_from_channelarray(), the return value 'bytes' is defined
as int type. However, the calcution of 'bytes' in this function is designed
to use the unsigned int type. So it is necessary to change 'bytes' type to
unsigned int to avoid integer overflow.

The size_from_channelarray() is called in main() function, its return value
is directly multipled by 'buf_len' and then used as the malloc() parameter.
The 'buf_len' is completely controllable by user, thus a multiplication
overflow may occur here. This could allocate an unexpected small area.
