Pull libnvdimm fixes from Dan Williams:
 "A regression fix for the Address Range Scrub implementation, yes
  another one, and support for platforms that misalign persistent memory
  relative to the Linux memory hotplug section constraint. Longer term,
  support for sub-section memory hotplug would alleviate alignment
  waste, but until then this hack allows a 'struct page' memmap to be
  established for these misaligned memory regions.

  These have all appeared in a -next release, and thanks to Patrick for
  reporting and testing the alignment padding fix.

  Summary:

   - Unless and until the core mm handles memory hotplug units smaller
     than a section (128M), persistent memory namespaces must be padded
     to section alignment.

     The libnvdimm core already handled section collision with "System
     RAM", but some configurations overlap independent "Persistent
     Memory" ranges within a section, so additional padding injection is
     added for that case.

   - The recent reworks of the ARS (address range scrub) state machine
     to reduce the number of state flags inadvertantly missed a
     conversion of acpi_nfit_ars_rescan() call sites. Fix the regression
     whereby user-requested ARS results in a "short" scrub rather than a
     "long" scrub.

   - Fixup the unit tests to handle / test the 128M section alignment of
     mocked test resources.

A "short" ARS (address range scrub) instructs the platform firmware to
return known errors. In contrast, a "long" ARS instructs platform
firmware to arrange every data address on the DIMM to be read / checked
for poisoned data.

The conversion of the flags in commit d3abaf43bab8 "acpi, nfit: Fix
Address Range Scrub completion tracking", changed the meaning of passing
'0' to acpi_nfit_ars_rescan(). Previously '0' meant "not short", now '0'
is ARS_REQ_SHORT. Pass ARS_REQ_LONG to restore the expected scrub-type
behavior of user-initiated ARS sessions.

<title>ACPI / platform: Add SMB0001 HID to forbidden_id_list</title>

<id>2bbb5fa37475d7aa5fa62f34db1623f3da2dfdfa</id>
<content type='text'>
Many HP AMD based laptops contain an SMB0001 device like this:

Device (SMBD)
{
    Name (_HID, "SMB0001")  // _HID: Hardware ID
    Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate ()  // _CRS: Current Resource Settings
    {
        IO (Decode16,
            0x0B20,             // Range Minimum
            0x0B20,             // Range Maximum
            0x20,               // Alignment
            0x20,               // Length
            )
        IRQ (Level, ActiveLow, Shared, )
            {7}
    })
}

The legacy style IRQ resource here causes acpi_dev_get_irqresource() to
be called with legacy=true and this message to show in dmesg:
ACPI: IRQ 7 override to edge, high

This causes issues when later on the AMD0030 GPIO device gets enumerated:

Device (GPIO)
{
    Name (_HID, "AMDI0030")  // _HID: Hardware ID
    Name (_CID, "AMDI0030")  // _CID: Compatible ID
    Name (_UID, Zero)  // _UID: Unique ID
    Method (_CRS, 0, NotSerialized)  // _CRS: Current Resource Settings
    {
	Name (RBUF, ResourceTemplate ()
	{
	    Interrupt (ResourceConsumer, Level, ActiveLow, Shared, ,, )
	    {
		0x00000007,
	    }
	    Memory32Fixed (ReadWrite,
		0xFED81500,         // Address Base
		0x00000400,         // Address Length
		)
	})
	Return (RBUF) /* \_SB_.GPIO._CRS.RBUF */
    }
}

Now acpi_dev_get_irqresource() gets called with legacy=false, but because
of the earlier override of the trigger-type acpi_register_gsi() returns
-EBUSY (because we try to register the same interrupt with a different
trigger-type) and we end up setting IORESOURCE_DISABLED in the flags.

The setting of IORESOURCE_DISABLED causes platform_get_irq() to call
acpi_irq_get() which is not implemented on x86 and returns -EINVAL.
resulting in the following in dmesg:

amd_gpio AMDI0030:00: Failed to get gpio IRQ: -22
amd_gpio: probe of AMDI0030:00 failed with error -22

The SMB0001 is a "virtual" device in the sense that the only way the OS
interacts with it is through calling a couple of methods to do SMBus
transfers. As such it is weird that it has IO and IRQ resources at all,
because the driver for it is not expected to ever access the hardware
directly.

The Linux driver for the SMB0001 device directly binds to the acpi_device
through the acpi_bus, so we do not need to instantiate a platform_device
for this ACPI device. This commit adds the SMB0001 HID to the
forbidden_id_list, avoiding the instantiating of a platform_device for it.
Not instantiating a platform_device means we will no longer call
acpi_dev_get_irqresource() for the legacy IRQ resource fixing the probe of
the AMDI0030 device failing.

<id>ae6b3e54aa52cd29965b8e4e47000ed2c5d78eb8</id>
<content type='text'>
Generic Serial Bus transfers use a data struct like this:

struct gsb_buffer {
        u8      status;
        u8      len;
        u8      data[0];
};

acpi_ex_write_data_to_field() copies the data which is to be written from
the source-buffer to a temp-buffer. This is done because the OpReg-handler
overwrites the status field and some transfers do a write + read-back.

Commit f99b89eefeb6 ("ACPICA: Update for generic_serial_bus and
attrib_raw_process_bytes protocol") acpi_ex_write_data_to_field()
introduces a number of problems with this:

 1) It drops a "length += 2" statement used to calculate the temp-buffer
 size causing the temp-buffer to only be 1/2 bytes large for byte/word
 transfers while it should be 3/4 bytes (taking the status and len field
 into account). This is already fixed in commit e324e10109fc ("ACPICA:
 Update for field unit access") which refactors the code.

The ACPI 6.0 spec (ACPI_6.0.pdf) "5.5.2.4.5.2 Declaring and Using a
GenericSerialBusData Buffer" (page 232) states that the GenericSerialBus
Data Buffer Length field is only valid when doing a Read/Write Block
(AttribBlock) transfer, but since the troublesome commit we unconditionally
use the len field to determine how much data to copy from the source-buffer
into the temp-buffer passed to the OpRegion.

This causes 3 further issues:

 2) This may lead to not copying enough data to the temp-buffer causing the
 OpRegion handler for the serial-bus to write garbage to the hardware.

 3) The temp-buffer passed to the OpRegion is allocated to the size
 returned by acpi_ex_get_serial_access_length(), which may be as little
 as 1, so potentially this may lead to a write overflow of the temp-buffer.

 4) Commit e324e10109fc ("ACPICA: Update for field unit access") drops a
 length check on the source-buffer, leading to a potential read overflow
 of the source-buffer.

This commit fixes all 3 remaining issues by not looking at the len field at
all (the interpretation of this field is left up to the OpRegion handler),
and copying the minimum of the source- and temp-buffer sizes from the
source-buffer to the temp-buffer.

This fixes e.g. an Acer S1003 no longer booting since the troublesome
commit.

Generic Serial Bus transfers use a data struct like this:

struct gsb_buffer {
        u8      status;
        u8      len;
        u8      data[0];
};

acpi_ex_write_data_to_field() copies the data which is to be written from
the source-buffer to a temp-buffer. This is done because the OpReg-handler
overwrites the status field and some transfers do a write + read-back.

Commit f99b89eefeb6 ("ACPICA: Update for generic_serial_bus and
attrib_raw_process_bytes protocol") acpi_ex_write_data_to_field()
introduces a number of problems with this:

 1) It drops a "length += 2" statement used to calculate the temp-buffer
 size causing the temp-buffer to only be 1/2 bytes large for byte/word
 transfers while it should be 3/4 bytes (taking the status and len field
 into account). This is already fixed in commit e324e10109fc ("ACPICA:
 Update for field unit access") which refactors the code.

The ACPI 6.0 spec (ACPI_6.0.pdf) "5.5.2.4.5.2 Declaring and Using a
GenericSerialBusData Buffer" (page 232) states that the GenericSerialBus
Data Buffer Length field is only valid when doing a Read/Write Block
(AttribBlock) transfer, but since the troublesome commit we unconditionally
use the len field to determine how much data to copy from the source-buffer
into the temp-buffer passed to the OpRegion.

This causes 3 further issues:

 2) This may lead to not copying enough data to the temp-buffer causing the
 OpRegion handler for the serial-bus to write garbage to the hardware.

 3) The temp-buffer passed to the OpRegion is allocated to the size
 returned by acpi_ex_get_serial_access_length(), which may be as little
 as 1, so potentially this may lead to a write overflow of the temp-buffer.

 4) Commit e324e10109fc ("ACPICA: Update for field unit access") drops a
 length check on the source-buffer, leading to a potential read overflow
 of the source-buffer.

This commit fixes all 3 remaining issues by not looking at the len field at
all (the interpretation of this field is left up to the OpRegion handler),
and copying the minimum of the source- and temp-buffer sizes from the
source-buffer to the temp-buffer.

This fixes e.g. an Acer S1003 no longer booting since the troublesome
commit.

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)"
