commit e545f0d8a54a9594fe604d67d80ca6fddf72ca59 upstream.

If secure authentication of a devices fails, either because the device
already has another key uploaded, or there is some other error sending
challenge to the device, and the user only wants to approve the device
just once (without a new key being uploaded to the device) the current
implementation does not allow this because the key cannot be cleared
once set even if we allow it to be changed.

Make this scenario possible and allow clearing the key by writing
empty string to the key sysfs file.

Pull MTD updates from Brian Norris:
 "General updates:
   - Cleanups and additional flash support for "dataflash" driver
   - new driver for mchp23k256 SPI SRAM device
   - improve handling of MTDs without eraseblocks (i.e., MTD_NO_ERASE)
   - refactor and improve "sub-partition" handling with TRX partition
     parser; partitions can now be created as sub-partitions of another
     partition

  SPINOR updates, from Cyrille Pitchen and Marek Vasut:
   - introduce support to the SPI 1-2-2 and 1-4-4 protocols.
   - introduce support to the Double Data Rate (DDR) mode.
   - introduce support to the Octo SPI protocols.
   - add support to new memory parts for Spansion, Macronix and Winbond.
   - add fixes for the Aspeed, STM32 and Cadence QSPI controler drivers.
   - clean up the st_spi_fsm driver.

  NAND updates, from Boris Brezillon:
   - addition of on-die ECC support to Micron driver
   - addition of helpers to help drivers choose most appropriate ECC
     settings
   - deletion of dead-code (cached programming and -&gt;errstat() hook)
   - make sure drivers that do not support the SET/GET FEATURES command
     return ENOTSUPP use a dummy -&gt;set/get_features implementation
     returning -ENOTSUPP (required for Micron on-die ECC)
   - change the semantic of ecc-&gt;write_page() for drivers setting the
     NAND_ECC_CUSTOM_PAGE_ACCESS flag
   - support exiting 'GET STATUS' command in default -&gt;cmdfunc()
     implementations
   - change the prototype of -&gt;setup_data_interface()

  A bunch of driver related changes:
   - various cleanup, fixes and improvements of the MTK driver
   - OMAP DT bindings fixes
   - support for -&gt;setup_data_interface() in the fsmc driver
   - support for imx7 in the gpmi driver
   - finalization of the denali driver rework (thanks to Masahiro for
     the work he's done on this driver)
   - fix "bitflips in erased pages" handling in the ifc driver
   - addition of PM ops and dynamic timing configuration to the atmel
     driver"

So far Linux supported only two levels of MTD devices so we didn't need
a very precise description for this sysfs file. With commit
97519dc52b44a ("mtd: partitions: add support for subpartitions") there
is support for a tree structure so we should have more precise
description. Using "parent" and "flash device" makes it more accurate.

   - support usrquota, grpquota, and statx

<id>daeb433e42de97c79622f58681972200eec1d8da</id>
<content type='text'>
In this patch, we add a new sysfs interface, with it, we can control
number of reserved blocks in system which could not be used by user,
it enable f2fs to let user to configure for adjusting over-provision
ratio dynamically instead of changing it by mkfs.

So we can expect it will help to reserve more free space for relieving
GC in both filesystem and flash device.

Pull security layer updates from James Morris:

 - a major update for AppArmor. From JJ:

     * several bug fixes and cleanups

     * the patch to add symlink support to securityfs that was floated
       on the list earlier and the apparmorfs changes that make use of
       securityfs symlinks

     * it introduces the domain labeling base code that Ubuntu has been
       carrying for several years, with several cleanups applied. And it
       converts the current mediation over to using the domain labeling
       base, which brings domain stacking support with it. This finally
       will bring the base upstream code in line with Ubuntu and provide
       a base to upstream the new feature work that Ubuntu carries.

     * This does _not_ contain any of the newer apparmor mediation
       features/controls (mount, signals, network, keys, ...) that
       Ubuntu is currently carrying, all of which will be RFC'd on top
       of this.

 - Notable also is the Infiniband work in SELinux, and the new file:map
   permission. From Paul:

      "While we're down to 21 patches for v4.13 (it was 31 for v4.12),
       the diffstat jumps up tremendously with over 2k of line changes.

       Almost all of these changes are the SELinux/IB work done by
       Daniel Jurgens; some other noteworthy changes include a NFS v4.2
       labeling fix, a new file:map permission, and reporting of policy
       capabilities on policy load"

   There's also now genfscon labeling support for tracefs, which was
   lost in v4.1 with the separation from debugfs.

 - Smack incorporates a safer socket check in file_receive, and adds a
   cap_capable call in privilege check.

 - TPM as usual has a bunch of fixes and enhancements.

 - Multiple calls to security_add_hooks() can now be made for the same
   LSM, to allow LSMs to have hook declarations across multiple files.

 - IMA now supports different "ima_appraise=" modes (eg. log, fix) from
   the boot command line.

Pull security layer updates from James Morris:

 - a major update for AppArmor. From JJ:

     * several bug fixes and cleanups

     * the patch to add symlink support to securityfs that was floated
       on the list earlier and the apparmorfs changes that make use of
       securityfs symlinks

     * it introduces the domain labeling base code that Ubuntu has been
       carrying for several years, with several cleanups applied. And it
       converts the current mediation over to using the domain labeling
       base, which brings domain stacking support with it. This finally
       will bring the base upstream code in line with Ubuntu and provide
       a base to upstream the new feature work that Ubuntu carries.

     * This does _not_ contain any of the newer apparmor mediation
       features/controls (mount, signals, network, keys, ...) that
       Ubuntu is currently carrying, all of which will be RFC'd on top
       of this.

 - Notable also is the Infiniband work in SELinux, and the new file:map
   permission. From Paul:

      "While we're down to 21 patches for v4.13 (it was 31 for v4.12),
       the diffstat jumps up tremendously with over 2k of line changes.

       Almost all of these changes are the SELinux/IB work done by
       Daniel Jurgens; some other noteworthy changes include a NFS v4.2
       labeling fix, a new file:map permission, and reporting of policy
       capabilities on policy load"

   There's also now genfscon labeling support for tracefs, which was
   lost in v4.1 with the separation from debugfs.

 - Smack incorporates a safer socket check in file_receive, and adds a
   cap_capable call in privilege check.

 - TPM as usual has a bunch of fixes and enhancements.

 - Multiple calls to security_add_hooks() can now be made for the same
   LSM, to allow LSMs to have hook declarations across multiple files.

 - IMA now supports different "ima_appraise=" modes (eg. log, fix) from
   the boot command line.
