The device number is currently a value that needs to be the same on two separate tables, but the code doesn't actually enforce it, leading to errors as boards get added or removed.

Pull random number generator fixes from Jason Donenfeld: - Per your suggestion, random reads now won't fail if there's a page fault after some non-zero amount of data has been read, which makes the behavior consistent with all other reads in the kernel. - Rather than an inconsistent mix of random_get_entropy() returning an unsigned long or a cycles_t, now it just returns an unsigned long. - A memcpy() was replaced with an memmove(), because the addresses are sometimes overlapping. In practice the destination is always before the source, so not really an issue, but better to be correct than not. * tag 'random-5.18-rc3-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/crng/random: random: use memmove instead of memcpy for remaining 32 bytes random: make random_get_entropy() return an unsigned long random: allow partial reads if later user copies fail

In order to immediately overwrite the old key on the stack, before servicing a userspace request for bytes, we use the remaining 32 bytes of block 0 as the key. This means moving indices 8,9,a,b,c,d,e,f -> 4,5,6,7,8,9,a,b. Since 4 < 8, for the kernel implementations of memcpy(), this doesn't actually appear to be a problem in practice. But relying on that characteristic seems a bit brittle. So let's change that to a proper memmove(), which is the by-the-books way of handling overlapping memory copies.

Commit 3ee48b6a ("mm, x86: Saving vmcore with non-lazy freeing of vmas") introduced set_iounmap_nonlazy(), which sets vmap_lazy_nr to lazy_max_pages() + 1, ensuring that any future vunmaps() immediately purge the vmap areas instead of doing it lazily. Commit 690467c8 ("mm/vmalloc: Move draining areas out of caller context") moved the purging from the vunmap() caller to a worker thread. Unfortunately, set_iounmap_nonlazy() can cause the worker thread to spin (possibly forever). For example, consider the following scenario: 1. Thread reads from /proc/vmcore. This eventually calls __copy_oldmem_page() -> set_iounmap_nonlazy(), which sets vmap_lazy_nr to lazy_max_pages() + 1. 2. Then it calls free_vmap_area_noflush() (via iounmap()), which adds 2 pages (one page plus the guard page) to the purge list and vmap_lazy_nr. vmap_lazy_nr is now lazy_max_pages() + 3, so the drain_vmap_work is scheduled. 3. Thread returns from the kernel and is scheduled out. 4. Worker thread is scheduled in and calls drain_vmap_area_work(). It frees the 2 pages on the purge list. vmap_lazy_nr is now lazy_max_pages() + 1. 5. This is still over the threshold, so it tries to purge areas again, but doesn't find anything. 6. Repeat 5. If the system is running with only one CPU (which is typicial for kdump) and preemption is disabled, then this will never make forward progress: there aren't any more pages to purge, so it hangs. If there is more than one CPU or preemption is enabled, then the worker thread will spin forever in the background. (Note that if there were already pages to be purged at the time that set_iounmap_nonlazy() was called, this bug is avoided.) This can be reproduced with anything that reads from /proc/vmcore multiple times. E.g., vmcore-dmesg /proc/vmcore. It turns out that improvements to vmap() over the years have obsoleted the need for this "optimization". I benchmarked `dd if=/proc/vmcore of=/dev/null` with 4k and 1M read sizes on a system with a 32GB vmcore. The test was run on 5.17, 5.18-rc1 with a fix that avoided the hang, and 5.18-rc1 with set_iounmap_nonlazy() removed entirely: |5.17 |5.18+fix|5.18+removal 4k|40.86s| 40.09s| 26.73s 1M|24.47s| 23.98s| 21.84s The removal was the fastest (by a wide margin with 4k reads). This patch removes set_iounmap_nonlazy().
