Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "One notable fix for our change to split pt_regs between user/kernel,
  we forgot to update BPF to use the user-visible type which was an ABI
  break for BPF programs.

  A slightly ugly but minimal fix to do_syscall_trace_enter() so that we
  use tracehook_report_syscall_entry() properly. We'll rework the code
  in next to avoid the empty if body.

  Seven commits fixing bugs in the new papr_scm (Storage Class Memory)
  driver. The driver was finally able to be tested on the other
  hypervisor which exposed several bugs. The fixes are all fairly
  minimal at least.

  Fix a crash in our MSI code if an MSI-capable device is plugged into a
  non-MSI capable PHB, only seen on older hardware (MPC8378).

  Fix our legacy serial code to look for "stdout-path" since the device
  trees were updated to use that instead of "linux,stdout-path".

  A change to the COFF zImage code to fix booting old powermacs.

  A couple of minor build fixes.

Arch code should use tracehook_*() helpers, as documented in
include/linux/tracehook.h, ptrace_report_syscall() is not expected to
be used outside that file.

The patch does not look very nice, but at least it is correct
and opens the way for PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO API.

Commit 78e5dfea84dc ("powerpc: dts: replace 'linux,stdout-path' with
'stdout-path'") broke the default console on a number of embedded
PowerPC systems, because it failed to also update the code in
arch/powerpc/kernel/legacy_serial.c to look for that property in
addition to the old one.

This fixes it.

<title>powerpc/msi: Fix NULL pointer access in teardown code</title>

The arch_teardown_msi_irqs() function assumes that controller ops
pointers were already checked in arch_setup_msi_irqs(), but this
assumption is wrong: arch_teardown_msi_irqs() can be called even when
arch_setup_msi_irqs() returns an error (-ENOSYS).

This can happen in the following scenario:
  - msi_capability_init() calls pci_msi_setup_msi_irqs()
  - pci_msi_setup_msi_irqs() returns -ENOSYS
  - msi_capability_init() notices the error and calls free_msi_irqs()
  - free_msi_irqs() calls pci_msi_teardown_msi_irqs()

This is easier to see when CONFIG_PCI_MSI_IRQ_DOMAIN is not set and
pci_msi_setup_msi_irqs() and pci_msi_teardown_msi_irqs() are just
aliases to arch_setup_msi_irqs() and arch_teardown_msi_irqs().

The call to free_msi_irqs() upon pci_msi_setup_msi_irqs() failure
seems legit, as it does additional cleanup; e.g.
list_del(&amp;entry-&gt;list) and kfree(entry) inside free_msi_irqs() do
happen (MSI descriptors are allocated before pci_msi_setup_msi_irqs()
is called and need to be cleaned up if that fails).

<title>powerpc/function_graph: Simplify with function_graph_enter()</title>

The function_graph_enter() function does the work of calling the function
graph hook function and the management of the shadow stack, simplifying the
work done in the architecture dependent prepare_ftrace_return().

Have powerpc use the new code, and remove the shadow stack management as well as
having to set up the trace structure.

This is needed to prepare for a fix of a design bug on how the curr_ret_stack
is used.

Commit 4c2de74cc869 ("powerpc/64: Interrupts save PPR on stack rather
than thread_struct") changed sizeof(struct pt_regs) % 16 from 0 to 8,
which causes the interrupt frame allocation on kernel entry to put the
kernel stack out of alignment.

Quadword (16-byte) alignment for the stack is required by both the
64-bit v1 ABI (v1.9 § 3.2.2) and the 64-bit v2 ABI (v1.1 § 2.2.2.1).

Add a pad field to fix alignment, and add a BUILD_BUG_ON to catch this
in future.

<title>memblock: stop using implicit alignment to SMP_CACHE_BYTES</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=7e1c4e27928e5f87b9b1eaf06dc31773b2f1e7f1'/>
<id>7e1c4e27928e5f87b9b1eaf06dc31773b2f1e7f1</id>
<content type='text'>
When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment
is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.

Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can
come as a surprise.  Not that such an alignment would be wrong even
when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of
clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise.

Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter
explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment
in the memblock internal allocation functions.

For the case when memblock APIs are used via helper functions, e.g.  like
iommu_arena_new_node() in Alpha, the helper functions were detected with
Coccinelle's help and then manually examined and updated where
appropriate.

The direct memblock APIs users were updated using the semantic patch below:

When a memblock allocation APIs are called with align = 0, the alignment
is implicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES.

Implicit alignment is done deep in the memblock allocator and it can
come as a surprise.  Not that such an alignment would be wrong even
when used incorrectly but it is better to be explicit for the sake of
clarity and the prinicple of the least surprise.

Replace all such uses of memblock APIs with the 'align' parameter
explicitly set to SMP_CACHE_BYTES and stop implicit alignment assignment
in the memblock internal allocation functions.
