      Merge the ptmx internal interface cleanup branch.
      
      This doesn't change semantics, but it should be a sane basis for
      eventually getting the multi-instance devpts code into some sane shape
      where we can get rid of the kernel config option.  Which we can
      hopefully get done next merge window..

      Pull PCI fixes from Bjorn Helgaas:
       "These are fixes for two issues:
      
         - The VPD parsing code we added for v4.6 keeps some devices from
           crashing, but also keeps cxgb4 from reading non-standard extra VPD
           data that is relies on.  Hariprasad added a way for the driver to
           specify how much VPD is valid.
      
         - The i.MX6 active-low reset GPIO support we added in v4.5 caused
           regressions on some boards, so we're reverting that.
      
        VPD:

      devpts: clean up interface to pty drivers · 67245ff3
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This gets rid of the horrible notion of having that
      
          struct inode *ptmx_inode
      
      be the linchpin of the interface between the pty code and devpts.
      
      By de-emphasizing the ptmx inode, a lot of things actually get cleaner,
      and we will have a much saner way forward.  In particular, this will
      allow us to associate with any particular devpts instance at open-time,
      and not be artificially tied to one particular ptmx inode.
      
      The patch itself is actually fairly straightforward, and apart from some
      locking and return path cleanups it's pretty mechanical:
      
       - the interfaces that devpts exposes all take "struct pts_fs_info *"
         instead of "struct inode *ptmx_inode" now.
      
         NOTE! The "struct pts_fs_info" thing is a completely opaque structure
         as far as the pty driver is concerned: it's still declared entirely
         internally to devpts. So the pty code can't actually access it in any
         way, just pass it as a "cookie" to the devpts code.
      
       - the "look up the pts fs info" is now a single clear operation, that
         also does the reference count increment on the pts superblock.
      
         So "devpts_add/del_ref()" is gone, and replaced by a "lookup and get
         ref" operation (devpts_get_ref(inode)), along with a "put ref" op
         (devpts_put_ref()).
      
       - the pty master "tty->driver_data" field now contains the pts_fs_info,
         not the ptmx inode.
      
       - because we don't care about the ptmx inode any more as some kind of
         base index, the ref counting can now drop the inode games - it just
         gets the ref on the superblock.
      
       - the pts_fs_info now has a back-pointer to the super_block. That's so
         that we can easily look up the information we actually need. Although
         quite often, the pts fs info was actually all we wanted, and not having
         to look it up based on some magical inode makes things more
         straightforward.
      
      In particular, now that "devpts_get_ref(inode)" operation should really
      be the *only* place we need to look up what devpts instance we're
      associated with, and we do it exactly once, at ptmx_open() time.
      
      The other side of this is that one ptmx node could now be associated
      with multiple different devpts instances - you could have a single
      /dev/ptmx node, and then have multiple mount namespaces with their own
      instances of devpts mounted on /dev/pts/.  And that's all perfectly sane
      in a model where we just look up the pts instance at open time.
      
      This will eventually allow us to get rid of our odd single-vs-multiple
      pts instance model, but this patch in itself changes no semantics, only
      an internal binding model.

      cxgb4: Set VPD size so we can read both VPD structures · 67e65879

      PCI core computes the valid VPD size by parsing the VPD starting at offset
      0x0.  That size only includes the abbreviated VPD structure, so reads of
      the complete VPD at 0x400 fail.

      s390: add CPU_BIG_ENDIAN config option · 2fd92273
      Heiko Carstens authored
      Make sure that s390 appears to be a big endian machine by defining
      this config option.
      
      Without this s390 appears to be little endian as seen by e.g. the
      recordmount script: "perl ./scripts/recordmcount.pl "s390" "little"
      "64""
      This has no practical impact within the script since the endian
      variable is only evaluated for mips. However there are already a
      couple of common code places which evaluate this config option. None
      of them is relevant for s390 currently though.
      
      To avoid any issues in the future (and fix the recordmcount oddity)
      add the new config option.

      arch_spin_lock_wait_flags() checks if a spinlock is not held before

      using the wrong cpu number for this (-1) and then will also yield the

      kn->dev_map rwsem for the device sysfs subtree. The same rwsem is also
      acquired when using the per-device sysfs attributes in the device sub-tree,
      and the attribute handlers then also acquire the dcssblk_devices_sem.
      
      This can lead to a deadlock when removing a DCSS while concurrently
      reading from / writing to one of its sysfs attributes. The following
      lockdep warning hinted towards the issue (CPU0 = dcssblk_remove_store,
      CPU1 = dcssblk_shared_store):
      
      [   76.496047]  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

      [   76.496106]                                lock(&dcssblk_devices_sem);
      [   76.496110]   lock(s_active#175);
      [   76.496115]
       *** DEADLOCK ***
      
      Fix this by releasing the dcssblk_devices_sem semaphore, which only
      protects internal DCSS data, before calling device_unregister().

      block: loop: fix filesystem corruption in case of aio/dio · a7297a6a
      Ming Lei authored
      Starting from commit e36f6204(block: split bios to max possible length),
      block core starts to split bio in the middle of bvec.
      
      Unfortunately loop dio/aio doesn't consider this situation, and
      always treat 'iter.iov_offset' as zero. Then filesystem corruption
      is observed.
      
      This patch figures out the offset of the base bvevc via
      'bio->bi_iter.bi_bvec_done' and fixes the issue by passing the offset
      to iov iterator.
      
      Fixes: e36f6204 (block: split bios to max possible length)

      crypto: ccp - Prevent information leakage on export · f709b45e
      Tom Lendacky authored
      Prevent information from leaking to userspace by doing a memset to 0 of
      the export state structure before setting the structure values and copying
      it. This prevents un-initialized padding areas from being copied into the
      export area.

      crypto: sha1-mb - use corrcet pointer while completing jobs · 0851561d
      Xiaodong Liu authored
      In sha_complete_job, incorrect mcryptd_hash_request_ctx pointer is used
      when check and complete other jobs. If the memory of first completed req
      is freed, while still completing other jobs in the func, kernel will
      crash since NULL pointer is assigned to RIP.

      The output buffer length has to be at least as big as the key_size.
      It is then updated to the actual output size by the implementation.
