commit 92f9e179a702a6adbc11e2fedc76ecd6ffc9e3f7 upstream.

Pause/unpause graph tracing around do_suspend_lowlevel as it has
inconsistent call/return info after it jumps to the wakeup vector.
The graph trace buffer will otherwise become misaligned and
may eventually crash and hang on suspend.

To reproduce the issue and test the fix:
Run a function_graph trace over suspend/resume and set the graph
function to suspend_devices_and_enter. This consistently hangs the
system without this fix.

<title>x86, ACPI: Handle apic/x2apic entries in MADT in correct order</title>

ACPI specifies the following rules when listing APIC IDs:
(1) Boot processor is listed first
(2) For multi-threaded processors, BIOS should list the first logical
    processor of each of the individual multi-threaded processors in MADT
    before listing any of the second logical processors.
(3) APIC IDs &lt; 0xFF should be listed in APIC subtable, APIC IDs &gt;= 0xFF
    should be listed in X2APIC subtable

Because of above, when there's more than 0xFF logical CPUs, BIOS
interleaves APIC/X2APIC subtables.

Assuming, there's 72 cores, 72 hyper-threads each, 288 CPUs total,
listing is like this:

APIC (0,4,8, .., 252)
X2APIC (258,260,264, .. 284)
APIC (1,5,9,...,253)
X2APIC (259,261,265,...,285)
APIC (2,6,10,...,254)
X2APIC (260,262,266,..,286)
APIC (3,7,11,...,251)
X2APIC (255,261,262,266,..,287)

Now, before this patch, due to how ACPI MADT subtables were parsed (BSP
then X2APIC then APIC), kernel enumerated CPUs in reverted order (i.e.
high APIC IDs were getting low logical IDs, and low APIC IDs were
getting high logical IDs).
This is wrong for the following reasons:
() it's hard to predict how cores and threads are enumerated
() when it's hard to predict, s/w threads cannot be properly affinitized
   causing significant performance impact due to e.g. inproper cache
   sharing
() enumeration is inconsistent with how threads are enumerated on
   other Intel Xeon processors

So, order in which MADT APIC/X2APIC handlers are passed is
reverse and both handlers are passed to be called during same MADT
table to walk to achieve correct CPU enumeration.

In scenario when someone boots kernel with options 'maxcpus=72 nox2apic',
in result less cores may be booted, since some of the CPUs the kernel
will try to use will have APIC ID &gt;= 0xFF. In such case, one
should not pass 'nox2apic'.

Disclimer: code parsing MADT APIC/X2APIC has not been touched since 2009,
when X2APIC support was initially added. I do not know why MADT parsing
code was added in the reversed order in the first place.
I guess it didn't matter at that time since nobody cared about cores
with APIC IDs &gt;= 0xFF, right?

This patch is based on work of "Yinghai Lu &lt;yinghai@kernel.org&gt;"
previously published at https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/1/21/563

Here's the explanation why parsing interface needs to be changed
and why simpler approach will not work https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/9/7/285

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "From the number of commits perspective, the biggest items are ACPICA
  and cpufreq changes with the latter taking the lead (over 50 commits).

  On the cpufreq front, there are many cleanups and minor fixes in the
  core and governors, driver updates etc.  We also have a new cpufreq
  driver for Mediatek MT8173 chips.

  ACPICA mostly updates its debug infrastructure and adds a number of
  fixes and cleanups for a good measure.

  The Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is updated with new
  DT bindings and support for them among other things.

  We have a few updates of the generic power domains framework and a
  reorganization of the ACPI device enumeration code and bus type
  operations.

  And a lot of fixes and cleanups all over.

  Included is one branch from the MFD tree as it contains some
  PM-related driver core and ACPI PM changes a few other commits are
  based on.

  Specifics:

   - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150818 including method
     tracing extensions to allow more in-depth AML debugging in the
     kernel and a number of assorted fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore, Lv
     Zheng, Markus Elfring).

   - ACPI sysfs code updates and a documentation update related to AML
     method tracing (Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI EC driver fix related to serialized evaluations of _Qxx
     methods and ACPI tools updates allowing the EC userspace tool to be
     built from the kernel source (Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI processor driver updates preparing it for future introduction
     of CPPC support and ACPI PCC mailbox driver updates (Ashwin
     Chaugule).

   - ACPI interrupts enumeration fix for a regression related to the
     handling of IRQ attribute conflicts between MADT and the ACPI
     namespace (Jiang Liu).

   - Fixes related to ACPI device PM (Mika Westerberg, Srinidhi
     Kasagar).

   - ACPI device registration code reorganization to separate the
     sysfs-related code and bus type operations from the rest (Rafael J
     Wysocki).

   - Assorted cleanups in the ACPI core (Jarkko Nikula, Mathias Krause,
     Andy Shevchenko, Rafael J Wysocki, Nicolas Iooss).

   - ACPI cpufreq driver and ia64 cpufreq driver fixes and cleanups (Pan
     Xinhui, Rafael J Wysocki).

   - cpufreq core cleanups on top of the previous changes allowing it to
     preseve its sysfs directories over system suspend/resume (Viresh
     Kumar, Rafael J Wysocki, Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).

   - cpufreq fixes and cleanups related to governors (Viresh Kumar).

   - cpufreq updates (core and the cpufreq-dt driver) related to the
     turbo/boost mode support (Viresh Kumar, Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz).

   - New DT bindings for Operating Performance Points (OPP), support for
     them in the OPP framework and in the cpufreq-dt driver plus related
     OPP framework fixes and cleanups (Viresh Kumar).

   - cpufreq powernv driver updates (Shilpasri G Bhat).

   - New cpufreq driver for Mediatek MT8173 (Pi-Cheng Chen).

   - Assorted cpufreq driver (speedstep-lib, sfi, integrator) cleanups
     and fixes (Abhilash Jindal, Andrzej Hajda, Cristian Ardelean).

   - intel_pstate driver updates including Skylake-S support, support
     for enabling HW P-states per CPU and an additional vendor bypass
     list entry (Kristen Carlson Accardi, Chen Yu, Ethan Zhao).

   - cpuidle core fixes related to the handling of coupled idle states
     (Xunlei Pang).

   - intel_idle driver updates including Skylake Client support and
     support for freeze-mode-specific idle states (Len Brown).

   - Driver core updates related to power management (Andy Shevchenko,
     Rafael J Wysocki).

   - Generic power domains framework fixes and cleanups (Jon Hunter,
     Geert Uytterhoeven, Rajendra Nayak, Ulf Hansson).

   - Device PM QoS framework update to allow the latency tolerance
     setting to be exposed to user space via sysfs (Mika Westerberg).

   - devfreq support for PPMUv2 in Exynos5433 and a fix for an incorrect
     exynos-ppmu DT binding (Chanwoo Choi, Javier Martinez Canillas).

   - System sleep support updates (Alan Stern, Len Brown, SungEun Kim).

   - rockchip-io AVS support updates (Heiko Stuebner).

   - PM core clocks support fixup (Colin Ian King).

   - Power capping RAPL driver update including support for Skylake H/S
     and Broadwell-H (Radivoje Jovanovic, Seiichi Ikarashi).

   - Generic device properties framework fixes related to the handling
     of static (driver-provided) property sets (Andy Shevchenko).

   - turbostat and cpupower updates (Len Brown, Shilpasri G Bhat,
     Shreyas B Prabhu)"

Nick Meier reported a regression with HyperV that "
  After rebooting the VM, the following messages are logged in syslog
  when trying to load the tulip driver:
    tulip: Linux Tulip drivers version 1.1.15 (Feb 27, 2007)
    tulip: 0000:00:0a.0: PCI INT A: failed to register GSI
    tulip: Cannot enable tulip board #0, aborting
    tulip: probe of 0000:00:0a.0 failed with error -16
  Errors occur in 3.19.0 kernel
  Works in 3.17 kernel.
"

According to the ACPI dump file posted by Nick at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1440072

The ACPI MADT table includes an interrupt source overridden entry for
ACPI SCI:
[236h 0566  1]                Subtable Type : 02 &lt;Interrupt Source Override&gt;
[237h 0567  1]                       Length : 0A
[238h 0568  1]                          Bus : 00
[239h 0569  1]                       Source : 09
[23Ah 0570  4]                    Interrupt : 00000009
[23Eh 0574  2]        Flags (decoded below) : 000D
                                   Polarity : 1
                               Trigger Mode : 3

And in DSDT table, we have _PRT method to define PCI interrupts, which
eventually goes to:

        })

According to the MADT and DSDT tables, IRQ 9 may be used for:
 1) ACPI SCI in level, high mode
 2) PCI legacy IRQ in level, low mode
So there's a conflict in polarity setting for IRQ 9.

Prior to commit cd68f6bd53cf ("x86, irq, acpi: Get rid of special
handling of GSI for ACPI SCI"), ACPI SCI is handled specially and
there's no check for conflicts between ACPI SCI and PCI legagy IRQ.
And it seems that the HyperV hypervisor doesn't make use of the
polarity configuration in IOAPIC entry, so it just works.

Commit cd68f6bd53cf gets rid of the specially handling of ACPI SCI,
and then the pin attribute checking code discloses the conflicts
between ACPI SCI and PCI legacy IRQ on HyperV virtual machine,
and rejects the request to assign IRQ9 to PCI devices.

So penalize legacy IRQ used by ACPI SCI and mark it unusable if ACPI
SCI attributes conflict with PCI IRQ attributes.

Nick Meier reported a regression with HyperV that "
  After rebooting the VM, the following messages are logged in syslog
  when trying to load the tulip driver:
    tulip: Linux Tulip drivers version 1.1.15 (Feb 27, 2007)
    tulip: 0000:00:0a.0: PCI INT A: failed to register GSI
    tulip: Cannot enable tulip board #0, aborting
    tulip: probe of 0000:00:0a.0 failed with error -16
  Errors occur in 3.19.0 kernel
  Works in 3.17 kernel.
"

According to the ACPI dump file posted by Nick at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1440072

The ACPI MADT table includes an interrupt source overridden entry for
ACPI SCI:
[236h 0566  1]                Subtable Type : 02 &lt;Interrupt Source Override&gt;
[237h 0567  1]                       Length : 0A
[238h 0568  1]                          Bus : 00
[239h 0569  1]                       Source : 09

[23Eh 0574  2]        Flags (decoded below) : 000D
                                   Polarity : 1
                               Trigger Mode : 3

And in DSDT table, we have _PRT method to define PCI interrupts, which
eventually goes to:
        Name (PRSA, ResourceTemplate ()
        {
            IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
                {3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
        })
        Name (PRSB, ResourceTemplate ()
        {
            IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
                {3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
        })
        Name (PRSC, ResourceTemplate ()
        {
            IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
                {3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
        })
        Name (PRSD, ResourceTemplate ()
        {
            IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
                {3,4,5,7,9,10,11,12,14,15}
        })

According to the MADT and DSDT tables, IRQ 9 may be used for:
 1) ACPI SCI in level, high mode
 2) PCI legacy IRQ in level, low mode
So there's a conflict in polarity setting for IRQ 9.

<title>x86: Drop bogus __ref / __refdata annotations</title>

The __ref / __refdata annotations used to be needed because of
referencing functions / variables annotated __cpuinit /
__cpuinitdata.

But those annotations vanished during the development of v3.11.

Therefore most of the __ref / __refdata annotations are not needed
anymore. As they may hide legitimate sections mismatches, we
better get rid of them.

Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The rework of backlight interface selection API from Hans de Goede
  stands out from the number of commits and the number of affected
  places perspective.  The cpufreq core fixes from Viresh Kumar are
  quite significant too as far as the number of commits goes and because
  they should reduce CPU online/offline overhead quite a bit in the
  majority of cases.

  From the new featues point of view, the ACPICA update (to upstream
  revision 20150515) adding support for new ACPI 6 material to ACPICA is
  the one that matters the most as some new significant features will be
  based on it going forward.  Also included is an update of the ACPI
  device power management core to follow ACPI 6 (which in turn reflects
  the Windows' device PM implementation), a PM core extension to support
  wakeup interrupts in a more generic way and support for the ACPI _CCA
  device configuration object.

  The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups all over and some documentation
  updates, including new DT bindings for Operating Performance Points.

  There is one fix for a regression introduced in the 4.1 cycle, but it
  adds quite a number of lines of code, it wasn't really ready before
  Thursday and you were on vacation, so I refrained from pushing it on
  the last minute for 4.1.

  Specifics:

   - ACPICA update to upstream revision 20150515 including basic support
     for ACPI 6 features: new ACPI tables introduced by ACPI 6 (STAO,
     XENV, WPBT, NFIT, IORT), changes related to the other tables (DTRM,
     FADT, LPIT, MADT), new predefined names (_BTH, _CR3, _DSD, _LPI,
     _MTL, _PRR, _RDI, _RST, _TFP, _TSN), fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore,
     Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI device power management core code update to follow ACPI 6
     which reflects the ACPI device power management implementation in
     Windows (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - rework of the backlight interface selection logic to reduce the
     number of kernel command line options and improve the handling of
     DMI quirks that may be involved in that and to make the code
     generally more straightforward (Hans de Goede).

   - fixes for the ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) driver related to the
     handling of EC transactions (Lv Zheng).

   - fix for a regression related to the ACPI resources management and
     resulting from a recent change of ACPI initialization code ordering
     (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - fix for a system initialization regression related to ACPI
     introduced during the 3.14 cycle and caused by running the code
     that switches the platform over to the ACPI mode too early in the
     initialization sequence (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - support for the ACPI _CCA device configuration object related to
     DMA cache coherence (Suravee Suthikulpanit).

   - ACPI/APEI fixes and cleanups (Jiri Kosina, Borislav Petkov).

   - ACPI battery driver cleanups (Luis Henriques, Mathias Krause).

   - ACPI processor driver cleanups (Hanjun Guo).

   - cleanups and documentation update related to the ACPI device
     properties interface based on _DSD (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - ACPI device power management fixes (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - assorted cleanups related to ACPI (Dominik Brodowski, Fabian
     Frederick, Lorenzo Pieralisi, Mathias Krause, Rafael J Wysocki).

   - fix for a long-standing issue causing General Protection Faults to
     be generated occasionally on return to user space after resume from
     ACPI-based suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 (Ingo Molnar).

   - fix to make the suspend core code return -EBUSY consistently in all
     cases when system suspend is aborted due to wakeup detection (Ruchi
     Kandoi).

   - support for automated device wakeup IRQ handling allowing drivers
     to make their PM support more starightforward (Tony Lindgren).

   - new tracepoints for suspend-to-idle tracing and rework of the
     prepare/complete callbacks tracing in the PM core (Todd E Brandt,
     Rafael J Wysocki).

   - wakeup sources framework enhancements (Jin Qian).

   - new macro for noirq system PM callbacks (Grygorii Strashko).

   - assorted cleanups related to system suspend (Rafael J Wysocki).

   - cpuidle core cleanups to make the code more efficient (Rafael J
     Wysocki).

   - powernv/pseries cpuidle driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat).

   - cpufreq core fixes related to CPU online/offline that should reduce
     the overhead of these operations quite a bit, unless the CPU in
     question is physically going away (Viresh Kumar, Saravana Kannan).

   - serialization of cpufreq governor callbacks to avoid race
     conditions in some cases (Viresh Kumar).

   - intel_pstate driver fixes and cleanups (Doug Smythies, Prarit
     Bhargava, Joe Konno).

   - cpufreq driver (arm_big_little, cpufreq-dt, qoriq) updates (Sudeep
     Holla, Felipe Balbi, Tang Yuantian).

   - assorted cleanups in cpufreq drivers and core (Shailendra Verma,
     Fabian Frederick, Wang Long).

   - new Device Tree bindings for representing Operating Performance
     Points (Viresh Kumar).

   - updates for the common clock operations support code in the PM core
     (Rajendra Nayak, Geert Uytterhoeven).

   - PM domains core code update (Geert Uytterhoeven).

   - Intel Knights Landing support for the RAPL (Running Average Power
     Limit) power capping driver (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli).

   - fixes related to the floor frequency setting on Atom SoCs in the
     RAPL power capping driver (Ajay Thomas).

   - runtime PM framework documentation update (Ben Dooks).

   - cpupower tool fix (Herton R Krzesinski)"

Srinivas Pandruvada reported a problem with system resume from
suspend-to-RAM on 32-bit x86 systems where the DS register of
the CPU is set to __KERNEL_DS instead of __USER_DS on return
to user space which cases a General Protection Fault to occur.

The issue is that DS is set to __KERNEL_DS by the ACPI resume code
path while the SYSEXIT path never reloads DS/ES.  It assumes they
are still __USER_DS set at the SYSENTER time (Brian Gerst), so if
the return to user space happens to be through SYSEXIT, it will lead
to the reported GPF.

Fix the problem by setting the DS and ES registers to __USER_DS
as expected by the SYSEXIT path.

the return to user space happens to be through SYSEXIT, it will lead
to the reported GPF.

Fix the problem by setting the DS and ES registers to __USER_DS
as expected by the SYSEXIT path.

This routine has been around for over a decade, but with EISA
being dead and abandoned for about twice that long, the name can
be kind of confusing.  The function is going at the PIC Edge/Level
Configuration Registers (ELCR), so rename it as such and mentally
decouple it from the long since dead EISA bus.
