commit 32a5a0c047343b11f581f663a2309cf43d13466f upstream.

The isa_bus_init function must be called before drivers which utilize
the ISA bus driver are registered. A race condition for initilization
exists if device_initcall is used (the isa_bus_init callback is placed
in the same initcall level as dependent drivers which use module_init).
This patch ensures that isa_bus_init is called first by utilizing
postcore_initcall in favor of device_initcall.

<title>firmware: actually return NULL on failed request_firmware_nowait()</title>

commit 715780ae4bb76d6fd2f20eb78e2a9ba9769a6cdc upstream.

The kerneldoc for request_firmware_nowait() says that it may call the
provided cont() callback with @fw == NULL, if the firmware request
fails. However, this is not the case when called with an empty string
(""). This case is short-circuited by the 'name[0] == '\0'' check
introduced in commit 471b095dfe0d ("firmware_class: make sure fw requests
contain a name"), so _request_firmware() never gets to set the fw to
NULL.

Noticed while using the new 'trigger_async_request' testing hook:

[ Upstream commit 7c35e699c88bd60734277b26962783c60e04b494 ]

If a device already has devres items attached before probing, a warning
backtrace is printed.  However, this backtrace does not reveal the
offending device, leaving the user uninformed.  Furthermore, using
WARN_ON() causes systems with panic-on-warn to reboot.

Fix this by replacing the WARN_ON() by a dev_crit() message.
Abort probing the device, to prevent doing more damage to the device's
resources.

commit db4d30fbb71b47e4ecb11c4efa5d8aad4b03dfae upstream.

Some processors may incur a machine check error possibly resulting in an
unrecoverable CPU lockup when an instruction fetch encounters a TLB
multi-hit in the instruction TLB. This can occur when the page size is
changed along with either the physical address or cache type. The relevant
erratum can be found here:

   https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205195

There are other processors affected for which the erratum does not fully
disclose the impact.

This issue affects both bare-metal x86 page tables and EPT.

It can be mitigated by either eliminating the use of large pages or by
using careful TLB invalidations when changing the page size in the page
tables.

Just like Spectre, Meltdown, L1TF and MDS, a new bit has been allocated in
MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES (PSCHANGE_MC_NO) and will be set on CPUs which
are mitigated against this issue.

<title>cpufreq: Avoid cpufreq_suspend() deadlock on system shutdown</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 65650b35133ff20f0c9ef0abd5c3c66dbce3ae57 upstream.

It is incorrect to set the cpufreq syscore shutdown callback pointer
to cpufreq_suspend(), because that function cannot be run in the
syscore stage of system shutdown for two reasons: (a) it may attempt
to carry out actions depending on devices that have already been shut
down at that point and (b) the RCU synchronization carried out by it
may not be able to make progress then.

The latter issue has been present since commit 45975c7d21a1 ("rcu:
Define RCU-sched API in terms of RCU for Tree RCU PREEMPT builds"),
but the former one has been there since commit 90de2a4aa9f3 ("cpufreq:
suspend cpufreq governors on shutdown") regardless.

Fix that by dropping cpufreq_syscore_ops altogether and making
device_shutdown() call cpufreq_suspend() directly before shutting
down devices, which is along the lines of what system-wide power
management does.

commit ac43432cb1f5c2950408534987e57c2071e24d8f upstream.

There is a race condition between removing glue directory and adding a new
device under the glue dir. It can be reproduced in following test:

CPU1:                                         CPU2:

device_add()
  get_device_parent()
    class_dir_create_and_add()
      kobject_add_internal()
        create_dir()    // create glue_dir

                                              device_add()
                                                get_device_parent()
                                                  kobject_get() // get glue_dir

device_del()
  cleanup_glue_dir()
    kobject_del(glue_dir)

                                                kobject_add()
                                                  kobject_add_internal()
                                                    create_dir() // in glue_dir
                                                      sysfs_create_dir_ns()
                                                        kernfs_create_dir_ns(sd)

      sysfs_remove_dir() // glue_dir-&gt;sd=NULL
      sysfs_put()        // free glue_dir-&gt;sd

                                                          // sd is freed
                                                          kernfs_new_node(sd)
                                                            kernfs_get(glue_dir)
                                                            kernfs_add_one()
                                                            kernfs_put()

Before CPU1 remove last child device under glue dir, if CPU2 add a new
device under glue dir, the glue_dir kobject reference count will be
increase to 2 via kobject_get() in get_device_parent(). And CPU2 has
been called kernfs_create_dir_ns(), but not call kernfs_new_node().
Meanwhile, CPU1 call sysfs_remove_dir() and sysfs_put(). This result in
glue_dir-&gt;sd is freed and it's reference count will be 0. Then CPU2 call
kernfs_get(glue_dir) will trigger a warning in kernfs_get() and increase
it's reference count to 1. Because glue_dir-&gt;sd is freed by CPU1, the next
call kernfs_add_one() by CPU2 will fail(This is also use-after-free)
and call kernfs_put() to decrease reference count. Because the reference
count is decremented to 0, it will also call kmem_cache_free() to free
the glue_dir-&gt;sd again. This will result in double free.

In order to avoid this happening, we also should make sure that kernfs_node
for glue_dir is released in CPU1 only when refcount for glue_dir kobj is
1 to fix this race.

The following calltrace is captured in kernel 4.14 with the following patch
applied:

commit ac43432cb1f5c2950408534987e57c2071e24d8f upstream.

There is a race condition between removing glue directory and adding a new
device under the glue dir. It can be reproduced in following test:

CPU1:                                         CPU2:

device_add()
  get_device_parent()
    class_dir_create_and_add()
      kobject_add_internal()
        create_dir()    // create glue_dir

                                              device_add()
                                                get_device_parent()
                                                  kobject_get() // get glue_dir

device_del()
  cleanup_glue_dir()
    kobject_del(glue_dir)

                                                kobject_add()
                                                  kobject_add_internal()
                                                    create_dir() // in glue_dir
                                                      sysfs_create_dir_ns()
                                                        kernfs_create_dir_ns(sd)

      sysfs_remove_dir() // glue_dir-&gt;sd=NULL
      sysfs_put()        // free glue_dir-&gt;sd

                                                          // sd is freed
                                                          kernfs_new_node(sd)
                                                            kernfs_get(glue_dir)
                                                            kernfs_add_one()
                                                            kernfs_put()

Before CPU1 remove last child device under glue dir, if CPU2 add a new
device under glue dir, the glue_dir kobject reference count will be
increase to 2 via kobject_get() in get_device_parent(). And CPU2 has
been called kernfs_create_dir_ns(), but not call kernfs_new_node().
Meanwhile, CPU1 call sysfs_remove_dir() and sysfs_put(). This result in
glue_dir-&gt;sd is freed and it's reference count will be 0. Then CPU2 call
kernfs_get(glue_dir) will trigger a warning in kernfs_get() and increase
it's reference count to 1. Because glue_dir-&gt;sd is freed by CPU1, the next
call kernfs_add_one() by CPU2 will fail(This is also use-after-free)
and call kernfs_put() to decrease reference count. Because the reference
count is decremented to 0, it will also call kmem_cache_free() to free
the glue_dir-&gt;sd again. This will result in double free.

In order to avoid this happening, we also should make sure that kernfs_node
for glue_dir is released in CPU1 only when refcount for glue_dir kobj is
1 to fix this race.

The following calltrace is captured in kernel 4.14 with the following patch
applied:

<title>regmap: fix bulk writes on paged registers</title>

[ Upstream commit db057679de3e9e6a03c1bcd5aee09b0d25fd9f5b ]

On buses like SlimBus and SoundWire which does not support
gather_writes yet in regmap, A bulk write on paged register
would be silently ignored after programming page.
This is because local variable 'ret' value in regmap_raw_write_impl()
gets reset to 0 once page register is written successfully and the
code below checks for 'ret' value to be -ENOTSUPP before linearising
the write buffer to send to bus-&gt;write().

Fix this by resetting the 'ret' value to -ENOTSUPP in cases where
gather_writes() is not supported or single register write is
not possible.

<title>PM / core: Propagate dev-&gt;power.wakeup_path when no callbacks</title>

[ Upstream commit dc351d4c5f4fe4d0f274d6d660227be0c3a03317 ]

The dev-&gt;power.direct_complete flag may become set in device_prepare() in
case the device don't have any PM callbacks (dev-&gt;power.no_pm_callbacks is
set). This leads to a broken behaviour, when there is child having wakeup
enabled and relies on its parent to be used in the wakeup path.

More precisely, when the direct complete path becomes selected for the
child in __device_suspend(), the propagation of the dev-&gt;power.wakeup_path
becomes skipped as well.

Let's address this problem, by checking if the device is a part the wakeup
path or has wakeup enabled, then prevent the direct complete path from
being used.
