With commit d5efd9cc9cf2 ("arm64: pmu: add support for interrupt-affinity
property"), we print a warning when we find a PMU SPI with a missing
missing interrupt-affinity property in a pmu node. Unfortunately, we
pass the wrong (NULL) device node to of_node_full_name, resulting in
unhelpful messages such as:
hw perfevents: Failed to parse <no-node>/interrupt-affinity[0]
This patch fixes the name to that of the pmu node.

PPIs are affine by nature, so the interrupt-affinity property is not
used and therefore we shouldn't print a warning in its absence.

__dma_alloc() does a PAGE_ALIGN() on the passed in size argument before
doing anything else. __dma_free() does not. And because it doesn't, it is
possible to leak memory should size not be an integer multiple of PAGE_SIZE.
The solution is to add a PAGE_ALIGN() to __dma_free() like is done in
__dma_alloc().
Additionally, this patch removes a redundant PAGE_ALIGN() from
__dma_alloc_coherent(), since __dma_alloc_coherent() can only be called
from __dma_alloc(), which already does a PAGE_ALIGN() before the call.

This reverts commits 0a4e6be9ca17c54817cf814b4b5aa60478c6df27
and 80f7fdb1c7f0f9266421f823964fd1962681f6ce.
The task migration notifier was originally introduced in order to support
the pvclock vsyscall with non-synchronized TSC, but KVM only supports it
with synchronized TSC. Hence, on KVM the race condition is only needed
due to a bad implementation on the host side, and even then it's so rare
that it's mostly theoretical.
As far as KVM is concerned it's possible to fix the host, avoiding the
additional complexity in the vDSO and the (re)introduction of the task
migration notifier.
Xen, on the other hand, hasn't yet implemented vsyscall support at
all, so we do not care about its plans for non-synchronized TSC.

The kvmclock spec says that the host will increment a version field to
an odd number, then update stuff, then increment it to an even number.
The host is buggy and doesn't do this, and the result is observable
when one vcpu reads another vcpu's kvmclock data.
There's no good way for a guest kernel to keep its vdso from reading
a different vcpu's kvmclock data, but we don't need to care about
changing VCPUs as long as we read a consistent data from kvmclock.
(VCPU can change outside of this loop too, so it doesn't matter if we
return a value not fit for this VCPU.)

Buffers allocated by dma_alloc_coherent() are always zeroed on Alpha,
ARM (32bit), MIPS, PowerPC, x86/x86_64 and probably other architectures.
It turned out that some drivers rely on this 'feature'. Allocated buffer
might be also exposed to userspace with dma_mmap() call, so clearing it
is desired from security point of view to avoid exposing random memory
to userspace. This patch unifies dma_alloc_coherent() behavior on ARM64
architecture with other implementations by unconditionally zeroing
allocated buffer.

Since several interrupt controllers including GIC support both edge and

/proc/interrupts even on ARM64 similar to ARM and PPC.

Commit 8053871d0f7f ("smp: Fix smp_call_function_single_async()
locking") introduced a call to smp_load_acquire() with a u16 argument,
but we only cared about u32 and u64 types in that function so far.
This resulted in a compiler warning fortunately, pointing at an
uninitialized use. Due to the implementation structure the compiler
misses that bug in the smp_store_release(), though.
Add the u16 and u8 variants using ldarh/stlrh and ldarb/stlrb,
respectively. Together with the compiletime_assert_atomic_type() check
this should cover all cases now.

AMD CPUs don't reinitialize the SS descriptor on SYSRET, so SYSRET with
SS == 0 results in an invalid usermode state in which SS is apparently
equal to __USER_DS but causes #SS if used.
Work around the issue by setting SS to __KERNEL_DS __switch_to, thus
ensuring that SYSRET never happens with SS set to NULL.
This was exposed by a recent vDSO cleanup.

Pull initial ACPI support for arm64 from Will Deacon:
"This series introduces preliminary ACPI 5.1 support to the arm64
kernel using the "hardware reduced" profile. We don't support any
peripherals yet, so it's fairly limited in scope:
- MEMORY init (UEFI)
- ACPI discovery (RSDP via UEFI)
- CPU init (FADT)
- GIC init (MADT)
- SMP boot (MADT + PSCI)
- ACPI Kconfig options (dependent on EXPERT)
ACPI for arm64 has been in development for a while now and hardware
has been available that can boot with either FDT or ACPI tables. This
has been made possible by both changes to the ACPI spec to cater for
ARM-based machines (known as "hardware-reduced" in ACPI parlance) but
also a Linaro-driven effort to get this supported on top of the Linux
kernel. This pull request is the result of that work.
These changes allow us to initialise the CPUs, interrupt controller,
and timers via ACPI tables, with memory information and cmdline coming
from EFI. We don't support a hybrid ACPI/FDT scheme. Of course,
there is still plenty of work to do (a serial console would be nice!)
but I expect that to happen on a per-driver basis after this core
series has been merged.
Anyway, the diff stat here is fairly horrible, but splitting this up
and merging it via all the different subsystems would have been
extremely painful. Instead, we've got all the relevant Acks in place
and I've not seen anything other than trivial (Kconfig) conflicts in
-next (for completeness, I've included my resolution below). Nearly
half of the insertions fall under Documentation/.
So, we'll see how this goes. Right now, it all depends on EXPERT and
I fully expect people to use FDT by default for the immediate future"

Commit cae2a173fe94 ("x86: clean up/fix 'copy_in_user()' tail zeroing")
fixed the failure case tail zeroing of one special case of the x86-64
generic user-copy routine, namely when used for the user-to-user case
("copy_in_user()").
But in the process it broke an even more unusual case: using the user
copy routine for kernel-to-kernel copying.
Now, normally kernel-kernel copies are obviously done using memcpy(),
but we have a couple of special cases when we use the user-copy
functions. One is when we pass a kernel buffer to a regular user-buffer
routine, using set_fs(KERNEL_DS). That's a "normal" case, and continued
to work fine, because it never takes any faults (with the possible
exception of a silent and successful vmalloc fault).
But Jan Beulich pointed out another, very unusual, special case: when we
use the user-copy routines not because it's a path that expects a user
pointer, but for a couple of ftrace/kgdb cases that want to do a kernel
copy, but do so using "unsafe" buffers, and use the user-copy routine to
gracefully handle faults. IOW, for probe_kernel_write().
And that broke for the case of a faulting kernel destination, because we
saw the kernel destination and wanted to try to clear the tail of the
buffer. Which doesn't work, since that's what faults.
This only triggers for things like kgdb and ftrace users (eg trying
setting a breakpoint on read-only memory), but it's definitely a bug.
The fix is to not compare against the kernel address start (TASK_SIZE),
but instead use the same limits "access_ok()" uses.

Patch e68410ebf626 ("crypto: x86/sha512_ssse3 - move SHA-384/512
SSSE3 implementation to base layer") changed the prototypes of the
core asm SHA-512 implementations so that they are compatible with
the prototype used by the base layer.
However, in one instance, the register that was used for passing the
input buffer was reused as a scratch register later on in the code,
and since the input buffer param changed places with the digest param
-which needs to be written back before the function returns- this
resulted in the scratch register to be dereferenced in a memory write
operation, causing a GPF.
Fix this by changing the scratch register to use the same register as
the input buffer param again.

After the file ptes have been removed the bit combination used to
encode non-linear mappings can be reused for the swap ptes. This
frees up a precious pte software bit. Reflect the change in the
swap encoding in the comments and do some cleanup while we are
at it.

The dirty & young bit from the pmd is not copied correctly to the
pseudo pte in __pmd_to_pte. In fact it is not copied at all, the
bits get lost. As the old style huge page currently does not need
the dirty & young information this has no effect, but may be needed
in the future.

So we must make sure the ebpf code generator depends on MARCH_Z196_FEATURES.

Replacing a 2K page table with a 4K page table while a VMA is active
for the affected memory region is fundamentally broken. Rip out the
page table reallocation code and replace it with a simple system
control 'vm.allocate_pgste'. If the system control is set the page
tables for all processes are allocated as full 4K pages, even for
processes that do not need it.

Introduce KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_GFP to allow the architecture code
to override the gfp flags of the allocation for the kexec control
page. The loop in kimage_alloc_normal_control_pages allocates pages
with GFP_KERNEL until a page is found that happens to have an
address smaller than the KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT. On systems
with a large memory size but a small KEXEC_CONTROL_MEMORY_LIMIT
the loop will keep allocating memory until the oom killer steps in.

Sometimes it fails to wake up from suspend to RAM, this is because
we would flush the data cache by assemble command FLUSHINV before
suspend to RAM, and there is a delay between this command execution
and cache flush completion. Add a 1uS delay to works around this.
