Commit 85c116a6cb91 ("perf callchain: Make get_srcline fall back to sym+offset")
introduces asprintf() call and matches '%ld' to a u64 argument, which is
incorrect on ARM:

   CC       /home/wn/util/srcline.o
 util/srcline.c: In function 'get_srcline':
 util/srcline.c:297:6: error: format '%ld' expects argument of type 'long int', but argument 4 has type 'u64' [-Werror=format]
 cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
 make[1]: *** [/home/wn/util/srcline.o] Error 1

In addition, all users of get_srcline() use u64 addr, and libbfd
also use 64 bit bfd_vma as address. This patch also fix
prototype of get_srcline() and addr2line() to use u64 addr
instead of unsigned long.

Pull more ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These are regression fixes (leds-gpio, ACPI backlight driver,
  operating performance points library, ACPI device enumeration
  messages, cpupower tool), other bug fixes (ACPI EC driver, ACPI device
  PM), some cleanups in the operating performance points (OPP)
  framework, continuation of CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME elimination, a couple of
  minor intel_pstate driver changes, a new MAINTAINERS entry for it and
  an ACPI fan driver change needed for better support of thermal
  management in user space.

  Specifics:

   - Fix a regression in leds-gpio introduced by a recent commit that
     inadvertently changed the name of one of the properties used by the
     driver (Fabio Estevam).

   - Fix a regression in the ACPI backlight driver introduced by a
     recent fix that missed one special case that had to be taken into
     account (Aaron Lu).

   - Drop the level of some new kernel messages from the ACPI core
     introduced by a recent commit to KERN_DEBUG which they should have
     used from the start and drop some other unuseful KERN_ERR messages
     printed by ACPI (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Revert an incorrect commit modifying the cpupower tool (Prarit
     Bhargava).

   - Fix two regressions introduced by recent commits in the OPP library
     and clean up some existing minor issues in that code (Viresh
     Kumar).

   - Continue to replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM throughout the
     tree (or drop it where that can be done) in order to make it
     possible to eliminate CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME (Rafael J Wysocki, Ulf
     Hansson, Ludovic Desroches).

     There will be one more "CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME removal" batch after this
     one, because some new uses of it have been introduced during the
     current merge window, but that should be sufficient to finally get
     rid of it.

   - Make the ACPI EC driver more robust against race conditions related
     to GPE handler installation failures (Lv Zheng).

   - Prevent the ACPI device PM core code from attempting to disable
     GPEs that it has not enabled which confuses ACPICA and makes it
     report errors unnecessarily (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Add a "force" command line switch to the intel_pstate driver to
     make it possible to override the blacklisting of some systems in
     that driver if needed (Ethan Zhao).

   - Improve intel_pstate code documentation and add a MAINTAINERS entry
     for it (Kristen Carlson Accardi).

   - Make the ACPI fan driver create cooling device interfaces witn
     names that reflect the IDs of the ACPI device objects they are
     associated with, except for "generic" ACPI fans (PNP ID "PNP0C0B").

     That's necessary for user space thermal management tools to be able
     to connect the fans with the parts of the system they are supposed
     to be cooling properly.  From Srinivas Pandruvada"

Pull user namespace related fixes from Eric Biederman:
 "As these are bug fixes almost all of thes changes are marked for
  backporting to stable.

  The first change (implicitly adding MNT_NODEV on remount) addresses a
  regression that was created when security issues with unprivileged
  remount were closed.  I go on to update the remount test to make it
  easy to detect if this issue reoccurs.

  Then there are a handful of mount and umount related fixes.

  Then half of the changes deal with the a recently discovered design
  bug in the permission checks of gid_map.  Unix since the beginning has
  allowed setting group permissions on files to less than the user and
  other permissions (aka ---rwx---rwx).  As the unix permission checks
  stop as soon as a group matches, and setgroups allows setting groups
  that can not later be dropped, results in a situtation where it is
  possible to legitimately use a group to assign fewer privileges to a
  process.  Which means dropping a group can increase a processes
  privileges.

  The fix I have adopted is that gid_map is now no longer writable
  without privilege unless the new file /proc/self/setgroups has been
  set to permanently disable setgroups.

  The bulk of user namespace using applications even the applications
  using applications using user namespaces without privilege remain
  unaffected by this change.  Unfortunately this ix breaks a couple user
  space applications, that were relying on the problematic behavior (one
  of which was tools/selftests/mount/unprivileged-remount-test.c).

  To hopefully prevent needing a regression fix on top of my security
  fix I rounded folks who work with the container implementations mostly
  like to be affected and encouraged them to test the changes.

    &gt; So far nothing broke on my libvirt-lxc test bed. :-)

    &gt; Ok, thanks - yes, unprivileged lxc is working fine with your kernels.
    &gt; Just to be sure I was testing the right thing I also tested using
    &gt; my unprivileged nsexec testcases, and they failed on setgroup/setgid
    &gt; as now expected, and succeeded there without your patches.

Pull user namespace related fixes from Eric Biederman:
 "As these are bug fixes almost all of thes changes are marked for
  backporting to stable.

  The first change (implicitly adding MNT_NODEV on remount) addresses a
  regression that was created when security issues with unprivileged
  remount were closed.  I go on to update the remount test to make it
  easy to detect if this issue reoccurs.

  Then there are a handful of mount and umount related fixes.

In filename__read_build_id, phdr points to memory in buf, which gets realloced
before a call to fseek that uses phdr-&gt;p_offset. This change stores the value
of p_offset before buf is realloced, so the fseek can use the value safely.
