      drm/radeon: fix HDP flushing · 8b72decc
      Grigori Goronzy authored 
      commit 54e03986 upstream.

This was regressed by commit 39e7f6f8, although I don't know of any
actual issues caused by it.

The storage domain is read without TTM locking now, but the lock
never helped to prevent any races.

      cxl: Fix off by one error allowing subsequent mmap page to be accessed · 8c980662
      Ian Munsie authored 
      commit 10a5894f upstream.

It was discovered that if a process mmaped their problem state area they
were able to access one page more than expected, potentially allowing
them to access the problem state area of an unrelated process.

This was due to a simple off by one error in the mmap fault handler
introduced in 0712dc7e ("cxl: Fix issues
when unmapping contexts"), which is fixed in this patch.

      powerpc/powernv: Fix race in updating core_idle_state · 55fbd98c
      Shreyas B. Prabhu authored 
      commit b32aadc1 upstream.

core_idle_state is maintained for each core. It uses 0-7 bits to track
whether a thread in the core has entered fastsleep or winkle. 8th bit is
used as a lock bit.
The lock bit is set in these 2 scenarios-
 - The thread is first in subcore to wakeup from sleep/winkle.
 - If its the last thread in the core about to enter sleep/winkle

While the lock bit is set, if any other thread in the core wakes up, it
loops until the lock bit is cleared before proceeding in the wakeup
path. This helps prevent race conditions w.r.t fastsleep workaround and
prevents threads from switching to process context before core/subcore
resources are restored.

But, in the path to sleep/winkle entry, we currently don't check for
lock-bit. This exposes us to following race when running with subcore
on-

First thread in the subcorea		Another thread in the same
waking up		   		core entering sleep/winkle

lwarx   r15,0,r14
ori     r15,r15,PNV_CORE_IDLE_LOCK_BIT
stwcx.  r15,0,r14
[Code to restore subcore state]

						lwarx   r15,0,r14
						[clear thread bit]
						stwcx.  r15,0,r14

andi.   r15,r15,PNV_CORE_IDLE_THREAD_BITS
stw     r15,0(r14)

Here, after the thread entering sleep clears its thread bit in
core_idle_state, the value is overwritten by the thread waking up.
In such cases when the core enters fastsleep, code mistakes an idle
thread as running. Because of this, the first thread waking up from
fastsleep which is supposed to resync timebase skips it. So we can
end up having a core with stale timebase value.

This patch fixes the above race by looping on the lock bit even while
entering the idle states.

      ACPI / PNP: Reserve ACPI resources at the fs_initcall_sync stage · 39893e3b
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored 
      commit 0294112e upstream.

This effectively reverts the following three commits:

 7bc10388 ACPI / resources: free memory on error in add_region_before()
 0f1b414d ACPI / PNP: Avoid conflicting resource reservations
 b9a5e5e1 ACPI / init: Fix the ordering of acpi_reserve_resources()

(commit b9a5e5e1 introduced regressions some of which, but not
all, were addressed by commit 0f1b414d and commit 7bc10388
was a fixup on top of the latter) and causes ACPI fixed hardware
resources to be reserved at the fs_initcall_sync stage of system
initialization.

The story is as follows.  First, a boot regression was reported due
to an apparent resource reservation ordering change after a commit
that shouldn't lead to such changes.  Investigation led to the
conclusion that the problem happened because acpi_reserve_resources()
was executed at the device_initcall() stage of system initialization
which wasn't strictly ordered with respect to driver initialization
(and with respect to the initialization of the pcieport driver in
particular), so a random change causing the device initcalls to be
run in a different order might break things.

The response to that was to attempt to run acpi_reserve_resources()
as soon as we knew that ACPI would be in use (commit b9a5e5e1).
However, that turned out to be too early, because it caused resource
reservations made by the PNP system driver to fail on at least one
system and that failure was addressed by commit 0f1b414d.

That fix still turned out to be insufficient, though, because
calling acpi_reserve_resources() before the fs_initcall stage of
system initialization caused a boot regression to happen on the
eCAFE EC-800-H20G/S netbook.  That meant that we only could call
acpi_reserve_resources() at the fs_initcall initialization stage
or later, but then we might just as well call it after the PNP
initalization in which case commit 0f1b414d wouldn't be
necessary any more.

For this reason, the changes made by commit 0f1b414d are reverted
(along with a memory leak fixup on top of that commit), the changes
made by commit b9a5e5e1 that went too far are reverted too and
acpi_reserve_resources() is changed into fs_initcall_sync, which
will cause it to be executed after the PNP subsystem initialization
(which is an fs_initcall) and before device initcalls (including
the pcieport driver initialization) which should avoid the initial
issue.

      ext4: replace open coded nofail allocation in ext4_free_blocks() · ef505188
      Michal Hocko authored 
      commit 7444a072 upstream.

ext4_free_blocks is looping around the allocation request and mimics
__GFP_NOFAIL behavior without any allocation fallback strategy. Let's
remove the open coded loop and replace it with __GFP_NOFAIL. Without the
flag the allocator has no way to find out never-fail requirement and
cannot help in any way.
