commit b9a5e5e18fbf223502c0b2264c15024e393da928 upstream.

Since acpi_reserve_resources() is defined as a device_initcall(),
there's no guarantee that it will be executed in the right order
with respect to the rest of the ACPI initialization code.  On some
systems this leads to breakage if, for example, the address range
that should be reserved for the ACPI fixed registers is given to
the PCI host bridge instead if the race is won by the wrong code
path.

Fix this by turning acpi_reserve_resources() into a void function
and calling it directly from within the ACPI initialization sequence.

commit 1d0a0b2f6df2bf2643fadc990eb143361eca6ada upstream.

ACPICA commit b60612373a4ef63b64a57c124576d7ddb6d8efb6

For physical addresses, since the address may exceed 32-bit address range
after calculation, we should use 0x%8.8X%8.8X instead of ACPI_PRINTF_UINT
and ACPI_FORMAT_UINT64() instead of
ACPI_FORMAT_NATIVE_UINT()/ACPI_FORMAT_TO_UINT().

This patch also removes above replaced macros as there are no users.

This is a preparation to switch acpi_physical_address to 64-bit on 32-bit
kernel builds.

ACPICA commit 154f6d074dd38d6ebc0467ad454454e6c5c9ecdf

There are code pieces converting pointers using "(acpi_physical_address) x"
or "ACPI_CAST_PTR (t, x)" formats, this patch cleans up them.

Known issues:
1. Cleanup of "(ACPI_PHYSICAL_ADDRRESS) x" for a table field
   For the conversions around the table fields, it is better to fix it with
   alignment also fixed. So this patch doesn't modify such code. There
   should be no functional problem by leaving them unchanged.

acpi_find_root_pointer(). This triggers warnings if sizeof (acpi_size) doesn't
equal to sizeof (acpi_physical_address):

commit 75ec6e55f1384548311a13ce4fcb39c516053314 upstream.

Changes to correct several GPIO issues:

1) The update_rule in a GPIO field definition is now ignored;
a read-modify-write operation is never performed for GPIO fields.
(Internally, this means that the field assembly/disassembly
code is completely bypassed for GPIO.)

2) The Address parameter passed to a GPIO region handler is
now the bit offset of the field from a previous Connection()
operator. Thus, it becomes a "Pin Number Index" into the
Connection() resource descriptor.

3) The bit_width parameter passed to a GPIO region handler is
now the exact bit width of the GPIO field. Thus, it can be
interpreted as "number of pins".

Overall, we can now say that the region handler interface
to GPIO handlers is a raw "bit/pin" addressed interface, not
a byte-addressed interface like the system_memory handler interface.

commit 236105db632c6279a020f78c83e22eaef746006b upstream.

Currently, notify callbacks for fixed button events are run from
interrupt context.  That is not necessary and after commit 0bf6368ee8f2
(ACPI / button: Add ACPI Button event via netlink routine) it causes
netlink routines to be called from interrupt context which is not
correct.

Also, that is different from non-fixed device events (including
non-fixed button events) whose notify callbacks are all executed from
process context.

For the above reasons, make fixed button device notify callbacks run
in process context which will avoid the deadlock when using netlink
to report button events to user space.

commit 6e17cb12881ba8d5e456b89f072dc6b70048af36 upstream.

i915.ko depends upon the acpi/video.ko module and so refuses to load if
ACPI is disabled at runtime if for example the BIOS is broken beyond
repair. acpi/video provides an optional service for i915.ko and so we
should just allow the modules to load, but do no nothing in order to let
the machines boot correctly.

commit a4714a898e85205e1118ec923cde43d88eb105f6 upstream.

Use acpi_os_map_generic_address to pre-map the reset register if it is
memory mapped, thereby preventing the BUG_ON() in line 1319 of
mm/vmalloc.c from triggering during panic-triggered reboots.

commit 74b51ee152b6d99e61ba329799a039453fb9438f upstream.

ACPI maintains cache of ioremap regions to speed up operations and
access to them from irq context where ioremap() calls aren't allowed.
This code abuses synchronize_rcu() on unmap path for synchronization
with fast-path in acpi_os_read/write_memory which uses this cache.

Since v3.10 CPUs are allowed to enter idle state even if they have RCU
callbacks queued, see commit c0f4dfd4f90f1667d234d21f15153ea09a2eaa66
("rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ take advantage of numbered callbacks").
That change caused problems with nvidia proprietary driver which calls
acpi_os_map/unmap_generic_address several times during initialization.
Each unmap calls synchronize_rcu and adds significant delay. Totally
initialization is slowed for a couple of seconds and that is enough to
trigger timeout in hardware, gpu decides to "fell off the bus". Widely
spread workaround is reducing "rcu_idle_gp_delay" from 4 to 1 jiffy.

This patch replaces synchronize_rcu() with synchronize_rcu_expedited()
which is much faster.
