commit a95c90f1e2c253b280385ecf3d4ebfe476926b28 upstream.

The last step before devm_memremap_pages() returns success is to allocate
a release action, devm_memremap_pages_release(), to tear the entire setup
down.  However, the result from devm_add_action() is not checked.

Checking the error from devm_add_action() is not enough.  The api
currently relies on the fact that the percpu_ref it is using is killed by
the time the devm_memremap_pages_release() is run.  Rather than continue
this awkward situation, offload the responsibility of killing the
percpu_ref to devm_memremap_pages_release() directly.  This allows
devm_memremap_pages() to do the right thing relative to init failures and
shutdown.

Without this change we could fail to register the teardown of
devm_memremap_pages().  The likelihood of hitting this failure is tiny as
small memory allocations almost always succeed.  However, the impact of
the failure is large given any future reconfiguration, or disable/enable,
of an nvdimm namespace will fail forever as subsequent calls to
devm_memremap_pages() will fail to setup the pgmap_radix since there will
be stale entries for the physical address range.

An argument could be made to require that the -&gt;kill() operation be set in
the @pgmap arg rather than passed in separately.  However, it helps code
readability, tracking the lifetime of a given instance, to be able to grep
the kill routine directly at the devm_memremap_pages() call site.

commit 808153e1187fa77ac7d7dad261ff476888dcf398 upstream.

devm_memremap_pages() is a facility that can create struct page entries
for any arbitrary range and give drivers the ability to subvert core
aspects of page management.

Specifically the facility is tightly integrated with the kernel's memory
hotplug functionality.  It injects an altmap argument deep into the
architecture specific vmemmap implementation to allow allocating from
specific reserved pages, and it has Linux specific assumptions about page
structure reference counting relative to get_user_pages() and
get_user_pages_fast().  It was an oversight and a mistake that this was
not marked EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL from the outset.

Again, devm_memremap_pagex() exposes and relies upon core kernel internal
assumptions and will continue to evolve along with 'struct page', memory
hotplug, and support for new memory types / topologies.  Only an in-kernel
GPL-only driver is expected to keep up with this ongoing evolution.  This
interface, and functionality derived from this interface, is not suitable
for kernel-external drivers.

[ Upstream commit e3f5df762d4a6ef6326c3c09bc9f89ea8a2eab2c ]

In preparation for libnvdimm growing new restrictions to detect section
conflicts between persistent memory regions, enable nfit_test to
allocate aligned resources. Use a gen_pool to allocate nfit_test's fake
resources in a separate address space from the virtual translation of
the same.

commit afd594240806acc138cf696c09f2f4829d55d02f upstream.

When patching in a new sequence for the first insn of a subprog, the start
 of that subprog does not change (it's the first insn of the sequence), so
 adjust_subprog_starts should check start &lt;= off (rather than &lt; off).
Also added a test to test_verifier.c (it's essentially the syz reproducer).

https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3782

Turns out arm doesn't permit mapping address 0, so try minimum virtual
address instead.

[ Upstream commit 25d8bcedbf4329895dbaf9dd67baa6f18dad918c ]

Start flood ping for each cpu while loading/flushing rulesets to make
sure we do not access already-free'd rules from nf_tables evaluation loop.

Also add this to TARGETS so 'make run_tests' in selftest dir runs it
automatically.

This would have caught the bug fixed in previous change
("netfilter: nf_tables: do not skip inactive chains during generation update")
sooner.

[ Upstream commit c6cecf4ae44e4ce9158ef8806358142c3512cd33 ]

Add some defensive coding in case one of the subprocesses created by tdc
returns nothing. If no object is returned from exec_cmd, then tdc will
halt with an unhandled exception.
