[ Upstream commit adfdfcbdbd32b356323a3db6d3a683270051a7e6 ]

This is simillar as fixed-regulator.
Used to extract regulator parent from the device tree.

Without that property used, the parent regulator can be shut down (if not an always on).
Thus leading to inappropriate behavior:
On am62-SP-SK this fix is required to avoid tps65219 ldo1 (SDMMC rail) to be shut down after boot completion.

commit af4db5a35a4ef7a68046883bfd12468007db38f1 upstream.

A poorly implemented DisplayPort Alt Mode port partner can indicate
that its pin assignment capabilities are greater than the maximum
value, DP_PIN_ASSIGN_F. In this case, calls to pin_assignment_show
will cause a BRK exception due to an out of bounds array access.

Prevent for loop in pin_assignment_show from accessing
invalid values in pin_assignments by adding DP_PIN_ASSIGN_MAX
value in typec_dp.h and using i &lt; DP_PIN_ASSIGN_MAX as a loop
condition.

This reverts commit 2b572c40981138349c04b3f69220ac878a36c561 which is
commit a18dfa9925b9ef6107ea3aa5814ca3c704d34a8a upstream.

A regression was introduced when backporting this to the stable kernels
without applying previous commits in this series.

When sending IPv6 UDP packets larger than MTU, EMSGSIZE was returned
instead of fragmenting the packets as expected.

As there is no compelling reason for this commit to be present in the
stable kernels it should be reverted.

[ Upstream commit 8d5cc8eed738e3202379722295c626cba0849785 ]

The non-zero (true) return value from consw::con_switch() means a redraw
is needed. So make this return type a bool explicitly instead of int.
The latter might imply that -Eerrors are expected. They are not.

And document the hook.

[ Upstream commit 559f01a0ee6d924c6fec3eaf6a5b078b15e71070 ]

In consw::con_clear():
* Height is always 1, so drop it.
* Offsets and width are always unsigned values, so re-type them as such.

This needs a new __fbcon_clear() in the fbcon code to still handle
height which might not be 1 when called internally.

Note that tests for negative count/width are left in place -- they are
taken care of in the next patches.

And document the hook.

[ Upstream commit e8c4bd6c6e6b7e7b416c42806981c2a81370001e ]

Add a function to query for the preferred ring buffer size of VMBus
device. This will allow the drivers (eg. UIO) to allocate the most
optimized ring buffer size for devices.

commit 59d9094df3d79443937add8700b2ef1a866b1081 upstream.

The folio refcount may be increased unexpectly through try_get_folio() by
caller such as split_huge_pages.  In huge_pmd_unshare(), we use refcount
to check whether a pmd page table is shared.  The check is incorrect if
the refcount is increased by the above caller, and this can cause the page
table leaked:

The issue may be triggered by damon, offline_page, page_idle, etc, which
will increase the refcount of page table.

1. The page table itself will be discarded after reporting the
   "nonzero mapcount".

2. The HugeTLB page mapped by the page table miss freeing since we
   treat the page table as shared and a shared page table will not be
   unmapped.

Fix it by introducing independent PMD page table shared count.  As
described by comment, pt_index/pt_mm/pt_frag_refcount are used for s390
gmap, x86 pgds and powerpc, pt_share_count is used for x86/arm64/riscv
pmds, so we can reuse the field as pt_share_count.
