commit f5527fffff3f002b0a6b376163613b82f69de073 upstream.

This fixes CVE-2016-8650.

If mpi_powm() is given a zero exponent, it wants to immediately return
either 1 or 0, depending on the modulus.  However, if the result was
initalised with zero limb space, no limbs space is allocated and a
NULL-pointer exception ensues.

Fix this by allocating a minimal amount of limb space for the result when
the 0-exponent case when the result is 1 and not touching the limb space
when the result is 0.

This affects the use of RSA keys and X.509 certificates that carry them.

commit 4f0414e54e4d1893c6f08260693f8ef84c929293 upstream.

We need to load the TX SG list in sendmsg(2) after waiting for
incoming data, not before.

[connoro@google.com: backport to 3.18, where the relevant logic is
located in skcipher_recvmsg() rather than skcipher_recvmsg_sync()]

Apparently, 'count' can be negative here, which will then get turned
into a giant size argument for memcpy. Changing the sizes to 'unsigned
int' instead seems safe as we already check for maximum sizes, and it
also simplifies the code a bit.

commit 13f99ebdd602ebdafb909e15ec6ffb1e34690167 upstream.

The latest gcc-7.0.1 snapshot points out that we if nr_ch is zero, we never
initialize some variables:

sound/pci/au88x0/au88x0_core.c: In function 'vortex_adb_allocroute':
sound/pci/au88x0/au88x0_core.c:2304:68: error: 'mix[0]' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
sound/pci/au88x0/au88x0_core.c:2305:58: error: 'src[0]' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

I assume this can never happen in practice, but adding a check here doesn't
hurt either and avoids the warning. The code has been unchanged since
the start of git history.

commit f6aafac184a3e46e919769dd4faa8bf0dc436534 upstream.

aarch64-linux-gcc-7 complains about code it doesn't fully understand:

drivers/infiniband/hw/qib/qib_iba7322.c: In function 'qib_7322_txchk_change':
include/asm-generic/bitops/non-atomic.h:105:35: error: 'shadow' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

The code is right, and despite trying hard, I could not come up with a version
that I liked better than just adding a fake initialization here to shut up the
warning.

[ Upstream commit d85fc67dd11e9a32966140677d4d6429ca540b25 ]

Without this patch, failed probe would not free resources like irq.

ata port tdev object currently hold a reference to the ata port
object.  Therefore the ata port object release function will not get
called until the ata_tport_release is called. But that would never
happen, releasing the last reference of ata port dev is done by
scsi_host_release, which is called by ata_host_release when the ata
port object is released.

The ata device objects actually do not need to explicitly hold a
reference to their real counterpart, given the transport objects are
the children of these objects and device_add() is call for each child.
We know the parent will not be deleted until we call the child's
device_del().

<title>xfs: remove kmem_zalloc_greedy</title>

[ Upstream commit 08b005f1333154ae5b404ca28766e0ffb9f1c150 ]

The sole remaining caller of kmem_zalloc_greedy is bulkstat, which uses
it to grab 1-4 pages for staging of inobt records.  The infinite loop in
the greedy allocation function is causing hangs[1] in generic/269, so
just get rid of the greedy allocator in favor of kmem_zalloc_large.
This makes bulkstat somewhat more likely to ENOMEM if there's really no
pages to spare, but eliminates a source of hangs.
