At interrupt exit, kuap_kernel_restore() calls kuap_unlock() with the
value contained in regs-&gt;kuap. However, when regs-&gt;kuap contains
0xffffffff it means that KUAP was not unlocked so calling kuap_unlock()
is unrelevant and results in jeopardising the contents of kernel space
segment registers.

So check that regs-&gt;kuap doesn't contain KUAP_NONE before calling
kuap_unlock(). In the meantime it also means that if KUAP has not
been correcly locked back at interrupt exit, it must be locked
before continuing. This is done by checking the content of
current-&gt;thread.kuap which was returned by kuap_get_and_assert_locked()

<title>powerpc/64s: Fix unrecoverable MCE calling async handler from NMI</title>

<id>f08fb25bc66986b0952724530a640d9970fa52c1</id>
<content type='text'>
The machine check handler is not considered NMI on 64s. The early
handler is the true NMI handler, and then it schedules the
machine_check_exception handler to run when interrupts are enabled.

This works fine except the case of an unrecoverable MCE, where the true
NMI is taken when MSR[RI] is clear, it can not recover, so it calls
machine_check_exception directly so something might be done about it.

Calling an async handler from NMI context can result in irq state and
other things getting corrupted. This can also trigger the BUG at
  arch/powerpc/include/asm/interrupt.h:168
  BUG_ON(!arch_irq_disabled_regs(regs) &amp;&amp; !(regs-&gt;msr &amp; MSR_EE));

Fix this by making an _async version of the handler which is called
in the normal case, and a NMI version that is called for unrecoverable
interrupts.

<title>powerpc/64/interrupt: Reconcile soft-mask state in NMI and fix false BUG</title>

<id>768c47010392ece9766a56479b4e0cf04a536916</id>
<content type='text'>
If a NMI hits early in an interrupt handler before the irq soft-mask
state is reconciled, that can cause a false-positive BUG with a
CONFIG_PPC_IRQ_SOFT_MASK_DEBUG assertion.

Remove that assertion and instead check the case that if regs-&gt;msr has
EE clear, then regs-&gt;softe should be marked as disabled so the irq state
looks correct to NMI handlers, the same as how it's fixed up in the
case it was implicit soft-masked.

This doesn't fix a known problem -- the change that was fixed by commit
4ec5feec1ad02 ("powerpc/64s: Make NMI record implicitly soft-masked code
as irqs disabled") was the addition of a warning in the soft-nmi
watchdog interrupt which can never actually fire when MSR[EE]=0. However
it may be important if NMI handlers grow more code, and it's less
surprising to anything using 'regs' - (I tripped over this when working
in the area).

<title>Merge branch 'gcc-min-version-5.1' (make gcc-5.1 the minimum version)</title>

<content type='text'>
Merge patch series from Nick Desaulniers to update the minimum gcc
version to 5.1.

This is some of the left-overs from the merge window that I didn't want
to deal with yesterday, so it comes in after -rc1 but was sent before.

Gcc-4.9 support has been an annoyance for some time, and with -Werror I
had the choice of applying a fairly big patch from Kees Cook to remove a
fair number of initializer warnings (still leaving some), or this patch
series from Nick that just removes the source of the problem.

The initializer cleanups might still be worth it regardless, but
honestly, I preferred just tackling the problem with gcc-4.9 head-on.
We've been more aggressiuve about no longer having to care about
compilers that were released a long time ago, and I think it's been a
good thing.

I added a couple of patches on top to sort out a few left-overs now that
we no longer support gcc-4.x.

As noted by Arnd, as a result of this minimum compiler version upgrade
we can probably change our use of '--std=gnu89' to '--std=gnu11', and
finally start using local loop declarations etc.  But this series does
_not_ yet do that.

Pull KVM updates from Paolo Bonzini:
 "ARM:
   - Page ownership tracking between host EL1 and EL2
   - Rely on userspace page tables to create large stage-2 mappings
   - Fix incompatibility between pKVM and kmemleak
   - Fix the PMU reset state, and improve the performance of the virtual
     PMU
   - Move over to the generic KVM entry code
   - Address PSCI reset issues w.r.t. save/restore
   - Preliminary rework for the upcoming pKVM fixed feature
   - A bunch of MM cleanups
   - a vGIC fix for timer spurious interrupts
   - Various cleanups

  s390:
   - enable interpretation of specification exceptions
   - fix a vcpu_idx vs vcpu_id mixup

  x86:
   - fast (lockless) page fault support for the new MMU
   - new MMU now the default
   - increased maximum allowed VCPU count
   - allow inhibit IRQs on KVM_RUN while debugging guests
   - let Hyper-V-enabled guests run with virtualized LAPIC as long as
     they do not enable the Hyper-V "AutoEOI" feature
   - fixes and optimizations for the toggling of AMD AVIC (virtualized
     LAPIC)
   - tuning for the case when two-dimensional paging (EPT/NPT) is
     disabled
   - bugfixes and cleanups, especially with respect to vCPU reset and
     choosing a paging mode based on CR0/CR4/EFER
   - support for 5-level page table on AMD processors

  Generic:
   - MMU notifier invalidation callbacks do not take mmu_lock unless
     necessary
   - improved caching of LRU kvm_memory_slot
   - support for histogram statistics
   - add statistics for halt polling and remote TLB flush requests"

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Convert pseries &amp; powernv to use MSI IRQ domains.

 - Rework the pseries CPU numbering so that CPUs that are removed, and
   later re-added, are given a CPU number on the same node as
   previously, when possible.

 - Add support for a new more flexible device-tree format for specifying
   NUMA distances.

 - Convert powerpc to GENERIC_PTDUMP.

 - Retire sbc8548 and sbc8641d board support.

 - Various other small features and fixes.
