Prevent recursion into the IO path under low memory conditions by using
GFP_NOIO in place of GFP_KERNEL when allocating a new command with
tcmu_alloc_cmd() and user ring space with tcmu_get_empty_block().

<title>scsi: target: tcmu: avoid use-after-free after command timeout</title>

In tcmu_handle_completion() function, the variable called read_len is
always initialized with a value taken from se_cmd structure. If this
function is called to complete an expired (timed out) out command, the
session command pointed by se_cmd is likely to be already deallocated by
the target core at that moment. As the result, this access triggers a
use-after-free warning from KASAN.

This patch fixes the code not to touch se_cmd when completing timed out
TCMU commands. It also resets the pointer to se_cmd at the time when the
TCMU_CMD_BIT_EXPIRED flag is set because it is going to become invalid
after calling target_complete_cmd() later in the same function,
tcmu_check_expired_cmd().

<title>scsi: target: tcmu: clean the nl_cmd of the udev when nl send fails</title>

If the userspace process crashes while we send the nl msg, it is possible
that the cmd in curr_nl_cmd of tcmu_dev never gets reset to 0, and and
returns busy for other commands after the userspace process is restartd.

More details below:

/backstores/user:file/file&gt; set attribute dev_size=2048
Cannot set attribute dev_size: [Errno 3] No such process
/backstores/user:file/file&gt; set attribute dev_size=2048
Cannot set attribute dev_size: [Errno 16] Device or resource busy

with following kernel messages:
[173605.747169] Unable to reconfigure device
[173616.686674] tcmu daemon: command reply support 1.
[173623.866978] netlink cmd 3 already executing on file
[173623.866984] Unable to reconfigure device

Also, it is not safe to leave the nl_cmd in the list, and not get deleted.

This patch removes the nl_cmd from the list, and clear its data if it is
not sent successfully.

Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "This is mostly update of the usual drivers: qla2xxx, hpsa, lpfc, ufs,
  mpt3sas, ibmvscsi, megaraid_sas, bnx2fc and hisi_sas as well as the
  removal of the osst driver (I heard from Willem privately that he
  would like the driver removed because all his test hardware has
  failed). Plus number of minor changes, spelling fixes and other
  trivia.

  The big merge conflict this time around is the SPDX licence tags.
  Following discussion on linux-next, we believe our version to be more
  accurate than the one in the tree, so the resolution is to take our
  version for all the SPDX conflicts"

Note on the SPDX license tag conversion conflicts: the SCSI tree had
done its own SPDX conversion, which in some cases conflicted with the
treewide ones done by Thomas &amp; co.

In almost all cases, the conflicts were purely syntactic: the SCSI tree
used the old-style SPDX tags ("GPL-2.0" and "GPL-2.0+") while the
treewide conversion had used the new-style ones ("GPL-2.0-only" and
"GPL-2.0-or-later").

In these cases I picked the new-style one.

In a few cases, the SPDX conversion was actually different, though.  As
explained by James above, and in more detail in a pre-pull-request
thread:

 "The other problem is actually substantive: In the libsas code Luben
  Tuikov originally specified gpl 2.0 only by dint of stating:

  * This file is licensed under GPLv2.

  In all the libsas files, but then muddied the water by quoting GPLv2
  verbatim (which includes the or later than language). So for these
  files Christoph did the conversion to v2 only SPDX tags and Thomas
  converted to v2 or later tags"

So in those cases, where the spdx tag substantially mattered, I took the
SCSI tree conversion of it, but then also took the opportunity to turn
the old-style "GPL-2.0" into a new-style "GPL-2.0-only" tag.

Similarly, when there were whitespace differences or other differences
to the comments around the copyright notices, I took the version from
the SCSI tree as being the more specific conversion.

Finally, in the spdx conversions that had no conflicts (because the
treewide ones hadn't been done for those files), I just took the SCSI
tree version as-is, even if it was old-style.  The old-style conversions
are perfectly valid, even if the "-only" and "-or-later" versions are
perhaps more descriptive.

This is less verbose and saves 7 bytes (i.e. the space for '/(null)') if

<title>genetlink: optionally validate strictly/dumps</title>

Add options to strictly validate messages and dump messages,
sometimes perhaps validating dump messages non-strictly may
be required, so add an option for that as well.

Since none of this can really be applied to existing commands,
set the options everwhere using the following spatch:

    @@
    identifier ops;
    expression X;
    @@
    struct genl_ops ops[] = {
    ...,
     {
            .cmd = X,
    +       .validate = GENL_DONT_VALIDATE_STRICT | GENL_DONT_VALIDATE_DUMP,
            ...
     },
    ...
    };

For new commands one should just not copy the .validate 'opt-out'
flags and thus get strict validation.

<title>genetlink: make policy common to family</title>

Since maxattr is common, the policy can't really differ sanely,
so make it common as well.

The only user that did in fact manage to make a non-common policy
is taskstats, which has to be really careful about it (since it's
still using a common maxattr!). This is no longer supported, but
we can fake it using pre_doit.

This reduces the size of e.g. nl80211.o (which has lots of commands):

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 398745	  14323	   2240	 415308	  6564c	net/wireless/nl80211.o (before)
 397913	  14331	   2240	 414484	  65314	net/wireless/nl80211.o (after)
--------------------------------
   -832      +8       0    -824

Which is obviously just 8 bytes for each command, and an added 8
bytes for the new policy pointer. I'm not sure why the ops list is
counted as .text though.

Most of the code transformations were done using the following spatch:
    @ops@
    identifier OPS;
    expression POLICY;
    @@
    struct genl_ops OPS[] = {
    ...,
     {
    -	.policy = POLICY,
     },
    ...
    };

    @@
    identifier ops.OPS;
    expression ops.POLICY;
    identifier fam;
    expression M;
    @@
    struct genl_family fam = {
            .ops = OPS,
            .maxattr = M,
    +       .policy = POLICY,
            ...
    };

This also gets rid of devlink_nl_cmd_region_read_dumpit() accessing
the cb-&gt;data as ops, which we want to change in a later genl patch.
