In test_firmware_init(), the buffer pointed to by the global pointer
'test_fw_config' is allocated through kzalloc(). Then, the buffer is
initialized in __test_firmware_config_init(). In the case that the
initialization fails, the following execution in test_firmware_init() needs
to be terminated with an error code returned to indicate this failure.
However, the allocated buffer is not freed on this execution path, leading
to a memory leak bug.

To fix the above issue, free the allocated buffer before returning from
test_firmware_init().

<title>kbuild: create *.mod with full directory path and remove MODVERDIR</title>

<content type='text'>
While descending directories, Kbuild produces objects for modules,
but do not link final *.ko files; it is done in the modpost.

To keep track of modules, Kbuild creates a *.mod file in $(MODVERDIR)
for every module it is building. Some post-processing steps read the
necessary information from *.mod files. This avoids descending into
directories again. This mechanism was introduced in 2003 or so.

Later, commit 551559e13af1 ("kbuild: implement modules.order") added
modules.order. So, we can simply read it out to know all the modules
with directory paths. This is easier than parsing the first line of
*.mod files.

$(MODVERDIR) has a flat directory structure, that is, *.mod files
are named only with base names. This is based on the assumption that
the module name is unique across the tree. This assumption is really
fragile.

Stephen Rothwell reported a race condition caused by a module name
conflict:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/5/13/991

In parallel building, two different threads could write to the same
$(MODVERDIR)/*.mod simultaneously.

Non-unique module names are the source of all kind of troubles, hence
commit 3a48a91901c5 ("kbuild: check uniqueness of module names")
introduced a new checker script.

However, it is still fragile in the build system point of view because
this race happens before scripts/modules-check.sh is invoked. If it
happens again, the modpost will emit unclear error messages.

To fix this issue completely, create *.mod with full directory path
so that two threads never attempt to write to the same file.

$(MODVERDIR) is no longer needed.

Since modules with directory paths are listed in modules.order, Kbuild
is still able to find *.mod files without additional descending.

I also killed cmd_secanalysis; scripts/mod/sumversion.c computes MD4 hash
for modules with MODULE_VERSION(). When CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y,
it occurs not only in the modpost stage, but also during directory
descending, where sumversion.c may parse stale *.mod files. It would emit
'No such file or directory' warning when an object consisting a module is
renamed, or when a single-obj module is turned into a multi-obj module or
vice versa.

<title>lib/rbtree: avoid generating code twice for the cached versions</title>

As was already noted in rbtree.h, the logic to cache rb_first (or
rb_last) can easily be implemented externally to the core rbtree api.

Change the implementation to do just that.  Previously the update of
rb_leftmost was wired deeper into the implmentation, but there were some
disadvantages to that - mostly, lib/rbtree.c had separate instantiations
for rb_insert_color() vs rb_insert_color_cached(), as well as rb_erase()
vs rb_erase_cached(), which were doing exactly the same thing save for
the rb_leftmost update at the start of either function.

As was already noted in rbtree.h, the logic to cache rb_first (or
rb_last) can easily be implemented externally to the core rbtree api.

Change the implementation to do just that.  Previously the update of
rb_leftmost was wired deeper into the implmentation, but there were some
disadvantages to that - mostly, lib/rbtree.c had separate instantiations
for rb_insert_color() vs rb_insert_color_cached(), as well as rb_erase()
vs rb_erase_cached(), which were doing exactly the same thing save for
the rb_leftmost update at the start of either function.

<title>lib/test_meminit.c: minor test fixes</title>

<id>4ab7ace465466d25c12cee9854e7140077e208cb</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix the following issues in test_meminit.c:
 - |size| in fill_with_garbage_skip() should be signed so that it
   doesn't overflow if it's not aligned on sizeof(*p);
 - fill_with_garbage_skip() should actually skip |skip| bytes;
 - do_kmem_cache_size() should deallocate memory in the RCU case.

Fixes: 7e659650cbda ("lib: introduce test_meminit module")

The conditional logic is too complicated for the compiler to fully
comprehend:

  lib/test_meminit.c: In function 'test_meminit_init':
  lib/test_meminit.c:236:5: error: 'buf_copy' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
       kfree(buf_copy);
       ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  lib/test_meminit.c:201:14: note: 'buf_copy' was declared here

Simplify it by splitting out the non-rcu section.

Due to some sad limitations in how kerneldoc comments are parsed, the
documentation in lib/string_helpers.c generates these warnings:

  lib/string_helpers.c:236: WARNING: Unexpected indentation.

<title>mm/ioremap: probe platform for p4d huge map support</title>

Finish up what commit c2febafc6773 ("mm: convert generic code to 5-level
paging") started while levelling up P4D huge mapping support at par with
PUD and PMD.  A new arch call back arch_ioremap_p4d_supported() is added
which just maintains status quo (P4D huge map not supported) on x86,
arm64 and powerpc.

When HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP is enabled its just a simple check from the
arch about the support, hence runtime effects are minimal.
