Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
"A small batch of fixes for v4.20-rc3.
The overflow continuation fix addresses something that has been broken
for several releases. Arguably it could wait even longer, but it's a
one line fix and this finishes the last of the known address range
scrub bug reports. The revert addresses a lockdep regression. The unit
tests are not critical to fix, but no reason to hold this fix back.
Summary:
- Address Range Scrub overflow continuation handling has been broken
since it was initially merged. It was only recently that error
injection and platform-BIOS support enabled this corner case to be
exercised.
- The recent attempt to provide more isolation for the kernel Address
Range Scrub state machine from userapace initiated sessions
triggers a lockdep report. Revert and try again at the next merge
window.
- Fix a kasan reported buffer overflow in libnvdimm unit test
infrastrucutre (nfit_test)"

Pull ARM spectre updates from Russell King:
"These are the currently known final bits that resolve the Spectre
issues. big.Little systems used to be sufficiently identical in that
there were no differences between individual CPUs in the system that
mattered to the kernel. With the advent of the Spectre problem, the
CPUs now have differences in how the workaround is applied.
As a result of previous Spectre patches, these systems ended up
reporting quite a lot of:
"CPUx: Spectre v2: incorrect context switching function, system vulnerable"
messages due to the action of the big.Little switcher causing the CPUs
to be re-initialised regularly. This series resolves that issue by
making the CPU vtable unique to each CPU.
However, since this is used very early, before per-cpu is setup,
per-cpu can't be used. We also have a problem that two of the methods
are not called from preempt-safe paths, but thankfully these remain
identical between all CPUs in the system. To make sure, we validate
that these are identical during boot"

Konstantin has noticed that kvmalloc might trigger the following warning: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6676 at mm/vmstat.c:986 __fragmentation_index+0x54/0x60 [...] Call Trace: fragmentation_index+0x76/0x90 compaction_suitable+0x4f/0xf0 shrink_node+0x295/0x310 node_reclaim+0x205/0x250 get_page_from_freelist+0x649/0xad0 __alloc_pages_nodemask+0x12a/0x2a0 kmalloc_large_node+0x47/0x90 __kmalloc_node+0x22b/0x2e0 kvmalloc_node+0x3e/0x70 xt_alloc_table_info+0x3a/0x80 [x_tables] do_ip6t_set_ctl+0xcd/0x1c0 [ip6_tables] nf_setsockopt+0x44/0x60 SyS_setsockopt+0x6f/0xc0 do_syscall_64+0x67/0x120 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x3d/0xa2 the problem is that we only check for an out of bound order in the slow path and the node reclaim might happen from the fast path already. This is fixable by making sure that kvmalloc doesn't ever use kmalloc for requests that are larger than KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE but this also shows that the code is rather fragile.

Without this change the following happens when using Python3 (3.6.6): $ echo "GPL-2.0" | python3 scripts/spdxcheck.py - FAIL: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode' Traceback (most recent call last): File "scripts/spdxcheck.py", line 253, in <module> parser.parse_lines(sys.stdin, args.maxlines, '-') File "scripts/spdxcheck.py", line 171, in parse_lines line = line.decode(locale.getpreferredencoding(False), errors='ignore') AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode' So as the line is already a string, there is no need to decode it and the line can be dropped. /usr/bin/python on Arch is Python 3. So this would indeed be worth going into 4.19.
