<title>tpm, tpm_crb: fail when TPM2 ACPI table contents look corrupted</title>

<id>b371616b8537d6450ebca0819defbf53452bebf3</id>
<content type='text'>
At least some versions of AMI BIOS have corrupted contents in the TPM2
ACPI table and namely the physical address of the control area is set to
zero.

This patch changes the driver to fail gracefully  when we observe a zero
address instead of continuing to ioremap.

<title>tpm: Fix initialization of the cdev</title>

<content type='text'>
When a cdev is contained in a dynamic structure the cdev parent kobj
should be set to the kobj that controls the lifetime of the enclosing
structure. In TPM's case this is the embedded struct device.

Also, cdev_init 0's the whole structure, so all sets must be after,
not before. This fixes module ref counting and cdev.

In needs_ilk_vtd_wa(), we pass in the GPU device but compared it against
the ids for the mobile GPU and the mobile host bridge. That latter is
impossible and so likely was just a typo for the desktop GPU device id
(which is also buggy).

  work, which removes the hard-coding of Capabilities and Yama stacking,

  See
        https://lwn.net/Articles/636056/

  This will allow smaller, simpler LSMs to be incorporated into the
  mainline kernel and arbitrarily stacked by users.  Also, this is a
  useful cleanup of the LSM code in its own right"

Pull cgroup writeback support from Jens Axboe:
 "This is the big pull request for adding cgroup writeback support.

  This code has been in development for a long time, and it has been
  simmering in for-next for a good chunk of this cycle too.  This is one
  of those problems that has been talked about for at least half a
  decade, finally there's a solution and code to go with it.

 - disable the 32-bit vdso when building LE, so we can build with a
   64-bit only toolchain.

 - EEH fixes from Gavin &amp; Richard.

 - enable the sys_kcmp syscall from Laurent.

 - sysfs control for fastsleep workaround from Shreyas.

 - expose OPAL events as an irq chip by Alistair.

 - MSI ops moved to pci_controller_ops by Daniel.

 - fix for kernel to userspace backtraces for perf from Anton.

 - merge pseries and pseries_le defconfigs from Cyril.

 - reworked version of the patch to abort syscalls when transactional.

 - fix the swap encoding to support 4TB, from Aneesh.

 - various fixes as usual.

 - Freescale updates from Scott: Highlights include more 8xx
   optimizations, an e6500 hugetlb optimization, QMan device tree nodes,
   t1024/t1023 support, and various fixes and cleanup.
