Instead of the IRQ number user the struct irq_info pointer as parameter
in the internal pirq related functions. This allows to drop some calls
of info_for_irq().

<content type='text'>
Modify the internal bind- and unbind-interfaces to take a struct
irq_info parameter. When allocating a new IRQ pass the pointer from
the allocating function further up.

This will reduce the number of info_for_irq() calls and make the code
more efficient.

<title>xen/events: drop xen_allocate_irqs_dynamic()</title>

<content type='text'>
Instead of having a common function for allocating a single IRQ or a
consecutive number of IRQs, split up the functionality into the callers
of xen_allocate_irqs_dynamic().

This allows to handle any allocation error in xen_irq_init() gracefully
instead of panicing the system. Let xen_irq_init() return the irq_info
pointer or NULL in case of an allocation error.

Additionally set the IRQ into irq_info already at allocation time, as
otherwise the IRQ would be '0' (which is a valid IRQ number) until
being set.

get_evtchn_to_irq() has only one external user while irq_from_evtchn()
provides the same functionality and is exported for a wider user base.
Modify the only external user of get_evtchn_to_irq() to use
irq_from_evtchn() instead and make get_evtchn_to_irq() static.

evtchn_from_irq() and irq_from_virq() have a single external user and
can easily be combined to a new helper irq_evtchn_from_virq() allowing
to drop irq_from_virq() and to make evtchn_from_irq() static.

<title>xen/events: fix delayed eoi list handling</title>

When delaying eoi handling of events, the related elements are queued
into the percpu lateeoi list. In case the list isn't empty, the
elements should be sorted by the time when eoi handling is to happen.

Unfortunately a new element will never be queued at the start of the
list, even if it has a handling time lower than all other list
elements.

Fix that by handling that case the same way as for an empty list.

<title>acpi/processor: sanitize _OSC/_PDC capabilities for Xen dom0</title>

<id>bfa993b355d33a438a746523e7129391c8664e8a</id>
<content type='text'>
The Processor capability bits notify ACPI of the OS capabilities, and
so ACPI can adjust the return of other Processor methods taking the OS
capabilities into account.

When Linux is running as a Xen dom0, the hypervisor is the entity
in charge of processor power management, and hence Xen needs to make
sure the capabilities reported by _OSC/_PDC match the capabilities of
the driver in Xen.

Introduce a small helper to sanitize the buffer when running as Xen
dom0.

When Xen supports HWP, this serves as the equivalent of commit
a21211672c9a ("ACPI / processor: Request native thermal interrupt
handling via _OSC") to avoid SMM crashes.  Xen will set bit
ACPI_PROC_CAP_COLLAB_PROC_PERF (bit 12) in the capability bits and the
_OSC/_PDC call will apply it.

[ jandryuk: Mention Xen HWP's need.  Support _OSC &amp; _PDC ]

The Processor capability bits notify ACPI of the OS capabilities, and
so ACPI can adjust the return of other Processor methods taking the OS
capabilities into account.

When Linux is running as a Xen dom0, the hypervisor is the entity
in charge of processor power management, and hence Xen needs to make
sure the capabilities reported by _OSC/_PDC match the capabilities of
the driver in Xen.

Introduce a small helper to sanitize the buffer when running as Xen
dom0.

When Xen supports HWP, this serves as the equivalent of commit
a21211672c9a ("ACPI / processor: Request native thermal interrupt
handling via _OSC") to avoid SMM crashes.  Xen will set bit
ACPI_PROC_CAP_COLLAB_PROC_PERF (bit 12) in the capability bits and the
_OSC/_PDC call will apply it.

[ jandryuk: Mention Xen HWP's need.  Support _OSC &amp; _PDC ]

xen_send_IPI_one() is being used by cpuhp_report_idle_dead() after
it calls rcu_report_dead(), meaning that any RCU usage by
xen_send_IPI_one() is a bad idea.

Unfortunately xen_send_IPI_one() is using notify_remote_via_irq()
today, which is using irq_get_chip_data() via info_for_irq(). And
irq_get_chip_data() in turn is using a maple-tree lookup requiring
RCU.

Avoid this problem by caching the ipi event channels in another
percpu variable, allowing the use notify_remote_via_evtchn() in
xen_send_IPI_one().
