Pull pci updates from Bjorn Helgaas:
 "Enumeration:

   - Allow TLP Processing Hints to be enabled for RCiEPs (George Abraham
     P)

   - Enable AtomicOps only if we know the Root Port supports them (Gerd
     Bayer)

   - Don't enable AtomicOps for RCiEPs since none of them need Atomic
     Ops and we can't tell whether the Root Complex would support them
     (Gerd Bayer)

   - Leave Precision Time Measurement disabled until a driver enables it
     to avoid PCIe errors (Mika Westerberg)

   - Make pci_set_vga_state() fail if bridge doesn't support VGA
     routing, i.e., PCI_BRIDGE_CTL_VGA is not writable, and return
     errors to vga_get() callers including userspace via
     /dev/vga_arbiter (Simon Richter)

   - Validate max-link-speed from DT in j721e, brcmstb, mediatek-gen3,
     rzg3s drivers (where the actual controller constraints are known),
     and remove validation from the generic OF DT accessor (Hans Zhang)

   - Remove pc110pad driver (no longer useful after 486 CPU support
     removed) and no_pci_devices() (pc110pad was the last user) (Dmitry
     Torokhov, Heiner Kallweit)

  Resource management:

   - Prevent assigning space to unimplemented bridge windows; previously
     we mistakenly assumed prefetchable window existed and assigned
     space and put a BAR there (Ahmed Naseef)

   - Avoid shrinking bridge windows to fit in the initial Root Port
     window; fixes one problem with devices with large BARs connected
     via switches, e.g., Thunderbolt (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Pass full extent of empty space, not just the aligned space, to
     resource_alignf callback so free space before the requested
     alignment can be used (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Place small resources before larger ones for better utilization of
     address space (Ilpo Järvinen)

   - Fix alignment calculation for resource size larger than align,
     e.g., bridge windows larger than the 1MB required alignment (Ilpo
     Järvinen)

  Reset:

   - Update slot handling so all ARI functions are treated as being in
     the same slot. They're all reset by Secondary Bus Reset, but
     previously drivers of ARI functions that appeared to be on a
     non-zero device weren't notified and fatal hardware errors could
     result (Keith Busch)

   - Make sysfs reset_subordinate hotplug safe to avoid spurious hotplug
     events (Keith Busch)

   - Hide Secondary Bus Reset ('bus') from sysfs reset_methods if masked
     by CXL because it has no effect (Vidya Sagar)

   - Avoid FLR for AMD NPU device, where it causes the device to hang
     (Lizhi Hou)

  Error handling:

   - Clear only error bits in PCIe Device Status to avoid accidentally
     clearing Emergency Power Reduction Detected (Shuai Xue)

   - Check for AER errors even in devices without drivers (Lukas Wunner)

   - Initialize ratelimit info so DPC and EDR paths log AER error
     information (Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan)

  Power control:

   - Add UPD720201/UPD720202 USB 3.0 xHCI Host Controller .compatible so
     generic pwrctrl driver can control it (Neil Armstrong)

  Hotplug:

   - Set LED_HW_PLUGGABLE for NPEM hotplug-capable ports so LED core
     doesn't complain when setting brightness fails because the endpoint
     is gone (Richard Cheng)

  Peer-to-peer DMA:

   - Allow wildcards in list of host bridges that support peer-to-peer
     DMA between hierarchy domains and add all Google SoCs (Jacob
     Moroni)

  Endpoint framework:

   - Advertise dynamic inbound mapping support in pci-epf-test and
     update host pci_endpoint_test to skip doorbell testing if not
     advertised by endpoint (Koichiro Den)

   - Return 0, not remaining timeout, when MHI eDMA ops complete so
     mhi_ep_ring_add_element() doesn't interpret non-zero as failure
     (Daniel Hodges)

   - Remove vntb and ntb duplicate resource teardown that leads to oops
     when .allow_link() fails or .drop_link() is called (Koichiro Den)

   - Disable vntb delayed work before clearing BAR mappings and
     doorbells to avoid oops caused by doing the work after resources
     have been torn down (Koichiro Den)

   - Add a way to describe reserved subregions within BARs, e.g.,
     platform-owned fixed register windows, and use it for the RK3588
     BAR4 DMA ctrl window (Koichiro Den)

   - Add BAR_DISABLED for BARs that will never be available to an EPF
     driver, and change some BAR_RESERVED annotations to BAR_DISABLED
     (Niklas Cassel)

   - Add NTB .get_dma_dev() callback for cases where DMA API requires a
     different device, e.g., vNTB devices (Koichiro Den)

   - Add reserved region types for MSI-X Table and PBA so Endpoint
     controllers can them as describe hardware-owned regions in a
     BAR_RESERVED BAR (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Make Tegra194/234 BAR0 programmable and remove 1MB size limit
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Expose Tegra BAR2 (MSI-X) and BAR4 (DMA) as 64-bit BAR_RESERVED
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Add Tegra194 and Tegra234 device table entries to pci_endpoint_test
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Skip the BAR subrange selftest if there are not enough inbound
     window resources to run the test (Christian Bruel)

  New native PCIe controller drivers:

   - Add DT binding and driver for Andes QiLai SoC PCIe host controller
     (Randolph Lin)

   - Add DT binding and driver for ESWIN PCIe Root Complex (Senchuan
     Zhang)

  Baikal T-1 PCIe controller driver:

   - Remove driver since it never quite became usable (Andy Shevchenko)

  Cadence PCIe controller driver:

   - Implement byte/word config reads with dword (32-bit) reads because
     some Cadence controllers don't support sub-dword accesses (Aksh
     Garg)

  CIX Sky1 PCIe controller driver:

   - Add 'power-domains' to DT binding for SCMI power domain (Gary Yang)

  Freescale i.MX6 PCIe controller driver:

   - Add i.MX94 and i.MX943 to fsl,imx6q-pcie-ep DT binding (Richard
     Zhu)

   - Delay instead of polling for L2/L3 Ready after PME_Turn_off when
     suspending i.MX6SX because LTSSM registers are inaccessible
     (Richard Zhu)

   - Separate PERST# assertion (for resetting endpoints) from core reset
     (for resetting the RC itself) to prepare for new DTs with PERST#
     GPIO in per-Root Port nodes (Sherry Sun)

   - Retain Root Port MSI capability on i.MX7D, i.MX8MM, and i.MX8MQ so
     MSI from downstream devices will work (Richard Zhu)

   - Fix i.MX95 reference clock source selection when internal refclk is
     used (Franz Schnyder)

  Freescale Layerscape PCIe controller driver:

   - Allow building as a removable module (Sascha Hauer)

  MediaTek PCIe Gen3 controller driver:

   - Use dev_err_probe() to simplify error paths and make deferred probe
     messages visible in /sys/kernel/debug/devices_deferred (Chen-Yu
     Tsai)

   - Power off device if setup fails (Chen-Yu Tsai)

   - Integrate new pwrctrl API to enable power control for WiFi/BT
     adapters on mainboard or in PCIe or M.2 slots (Chen-Yu Tsai)

  NVIDIA Tegra194 PCIe controller driver:

   - Poll less aggressively and non-atomically for PME_TO_Ack during
     transition to L2 (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable LTSSM after transition to Detect on surprise link down to
     stop toggling between Polling and Detect (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Don't force the device into the D0 state before L2 when suspending
     or shutting down the controller (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable PERST# IRQ only in Endpoint mode because it's not
     registered in Root Port mode (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Handle 'nvidia,refclk-select' as optional (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable direct speed change in Endpoint mode so link speed change
     is controlled by the host (Vidya Sagar)

   - Set LTR values before link up to avoid bogus LTR messages with 0
     latency (Vidya Sagar)

   - Allow system suspend when the Endpoint link is down (Vidya Sagar)

   - Use DWC IP core version, not Tegra custom values, to avoid DWC core
     version check warnings (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Apply ECRC workaround to devices based on DesignWare 5.00a as well
     as 4.90a (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Disable PM Substate L1.2 in Endpoint mode to work around Tegra234
     erratum (Vidya Sagar)

   - Delay post-PERST# cleanup until core is powered on to avoid CBB
     timeout (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Assert CLKREQ# so switches that forward it to their downstream side
     can bring up those links successfully (Vidya Sagar)

   - Calibrate pipe to UPHY for Endpoint mode to reset stale PLL state
     from any previous bad link state (Vidya Sagar)

   - Remove IRQF_ONESHOT flag from Endpoint interrupt registration so
     DMA driver and Endpoint controller driver can share the interrupt
     line (Vidya Sagar)

   - Enable DMA interrupt to support DMA in both Root Port and Endpoint
     modes (Vidya Sagar)

   - Enable hardware link retraining after link goes down in Endpoint
     mode (Vidya Sagar)

   - Add DT binding and driver support for core clock monitoring (Vidya
     Sagar)

  Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:

   - Advertise 'Hot-Plug Capable' and set 'No Command Completed Support'
     since Qcom Root Ports support hotplug events like DL_Up/Down and
     can accept writes to Slot Control without delays between writes
     (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)

  Renesas R-Car PCIe controller driver:

   - Mark Endpoint BAR0 and BAR2 as Resizable (Koichiro Den)

   - Reduce EPC BAR alignment requirement to 4K (Koichiro Den)

  Renesas RZ/G3S PCIe controller driver:

   - Add RZ/G3E to DT binding and to driver (John Madieu)

   - Assert (not deassert) resets in probe error path (John Madieu)

   - Assert resets in suspend path in reverse order they were deasserted
     during probe (John Madieu)

   - Rework inbound window algorithm to prevent mapping more than
     intended region and enforce alignment on size, to prepare for
     RZ/G3E support (John Madieu)

  Rockchip DesignWare PCIe controller driver:

   - Add tracepoints for PCIe controller LTSSM transitions and link rate
     changes (Shawn Lin)

   - Trace LTSSM events collected by the dw-rockchip debug FIFO (Shawn
     Lin)

  SOPHGO PCIe controller driver:

   - Disable ASPM L0s and L1 on Sophgo 2042 PCIe Root Ports that
     advertise support for them (Yao Zi)

  Synopsys DesignWare PCIe controller driver:

   - Continue with system suspend even if an Endpoint doesn't respond
     with PME_TO_Ack message (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Set Endpoint MSI-X Table Size in the correct function of a
     multi-function device when configuring MSI-X, not in Function 0
     (Aksh Garg)

   - Set Max Link Width and Max Link Speed for all functions of a
     multi-function device, not just Function 0 (Aksh Garg)

   - Warn only once about invalid ACS kernel parameter format (Richard
     Cheng)

   - Suppress FW_BUG warning when writing sysfs 'numa_node' with the
     current value (Li RongQing)

     when .allow_link() fails or .drop_link() is called (Koichiro Den)

   - Disable vntb delayed work before clearing BAR mappings and
     doorbells to avoid oops caused by doing the work after resources
     have been torn down (Koichiro Den)

   - Add NTB .get_dma_dev() callback for cases where DMA API requires a
     different device, e.g., vNTB devices (Koichiro Den)

   - Add reserved region types for MSI-X Table and PBA so Endpoint
     controllers can them as describe hardware-owned regions in a
     BAR_RESERVED BAR (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Make Tegra194/234 BAR0 programmable and remove 1MB size limit
     (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Expose Tegra BAR2 (MSI-X) and BAR4 (DMA) as 64-bit BAR_RESERVED

     Zhu)

   - Delay instead of polling for L2/L3 Ready after PME_Turn_off when
     suspending i.MX6SX because LTSSM registers are inaccessible
     (Richard Zhu)

   - Separate PERST# assertion (for resetting endpoints) from core reset
     (for resetting the RC itself) to prepare for new DTs with PERST#
     GPIO in per-Root Port nodes (Sherry Sun)

   - Retain Root Port MSI capability on i.MX7D, i.MX8MM, and i.MX8MQ so
     MSI from downstream devices will work (Richard Zhu)

   - Fix i.MX95 reference clock source selection when internal refclk is
     used (Franz Schnyder)

  Freescale Layerscape PCIe controller driver:

   - Allow building as a removable module (Sascha Hauer)

   - Poll less aggressively and non-atomically for PME_TO_Ack during
     transition to L2 (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable LTSSM after transition to Detect on surprise link down to
     stop toggling between Polling and Detect (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Don't force the device into the D0 state before L2 when suspending
     or shutting down the controller (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable PERST# IRQ only in Endpoint mode because it's not
     registered in Root Port mode (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Handle 'nvidia,refclk-select' as optional (Vidya Sagar)

   - Disable direct speed change in Endpoint mode so link speed change
     is controlled by the host (Vidya Sagar)

   - Set LTR values before link up to avoid bogus LTR messages with 0
     latency (Vidya Sagar)

   - Allow system suspend when the Endpoint link is down (Vidya Sagar)

   - Use DWC IP core version, not Tegra custom values, to avoid DWC core
     version check warnings (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Apply ECRC workaround to devices based on DesignWare 5.00a as well
     as 4.90a (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Disable PM Substate L1.2 in Endpoint mode to work around Tegra234
     erratum (Vidya Sagar)

   - Delay post-PERST# cleanup until core is powered on to avoid CBB
     timeout (Manikanta Maddireddy)

   - Assert CLKREQ# so switches that forward it to their downstream side
     can bring up those links successfully (Vidya Sagar)

   - Calibrate pipe to UPHY for Endpoint mode to reset stale PLL state
     from any previous bad link state (Vidya Sagar)

   - Remove IRQF_ONESHOT flag from Endpoint interrupt registration so
     DMA driver and Endpoint controller driver can share the interrupt
     line (Vidya Sagar)

   - Enable DMA interrupt to support DMA in both Root Port and Endpoint
     modes (Vidya Sagar)

   - Enable hardware link retraining after link goes down in Endpoint
     mode (Vidya Sagar)

   - Add DT binding and driver support for core clock monitoring (Vidya
     Sagar)

  Qualcomm PCIe controller driver:

   - Advertise 'Hot-Plug Capable' and set 'No Command Completed Support'
     since Qcom Root Ports support hotplug events like DL_Up/Down and
     can accept writes to Slot Control without delays between writes
     (Krishna Chaitanya Chundru)

     RZ/G3E support (John Madieu)

  Rockchip DesignWare PCIe controller driver:

   - Add tracepoints for PCIe controller LTSSM transitions and link rate
     changes (Shawn Lin)

     multi-function device when configuring MSI-X, not in Function 0
     (Aksh Garg)

   - Set Max Link Width and Max Link Speed for all functions of a
     multi-function device, not just Function 0 (Aksh Garg)

In a PowerNV environment, for devices that supports DMA mask less than
64 bit but larger than 32 bits, iommu is incorrectly bypassing DMA
APIs while allocating and mapping buffers for DMA operations.

Devices are failing with ENOMEN during probe with the following messages

<title>powerpc: fadump: pair alloc_pages_exact() with free_pages_exact()</title>

fadump allocates buffers with alloc_pages_exact(), but then marks them
as reserved and frees using free_reserved_area().

This is completely unnecessary and the pages allocated with
alloc_pages_exact() can be naturally freed with free_pages_exact().

Replace freeing of memory in fadump_free_buffer() with
free_pages_exact() and simplify allocation code so that it won't mark
allocated pages as reserved.

Commit 861574d51bbd ("powerpc/uaccess: Implement masked user access")
provides optimised user access by avoiding the cost of access_ok().

Convert emulate_spe() to scoped user access to benefit from masked
user access.

Scoped user access also make the code simpler.
