Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:

 - Rework copy_oldmem_page() callback to take an iov_iter.

   This includes a few prerequisite updates and fixes to the oldmem
   reading code.

 - Rework cpufeature implementation to allow for various CPU feature
   indications, which is not only limited to hardware capabilities, but
   also allows CPU facilities.

 - Use the cpufeature rework to autoload Ultravisor module when CPU
   facility 158 is available.

 - Add ELF note type for encrypted CPU state of a protected virtual CPU.
   The zgetdump tool from s390-tools package will decrypt the CPU state
   using a Customer Communication Key and overwrite respective notes to
   make the data accessible for crash and other debugging tools.

 - Use vzalloc() instead of vmalloc() + memset() in ChaCha20 crypto
   test.

 - Fix incorrect recovery of kretprobe modified return address in
   stacktrace.

 - Switch the NMI handler to use generic irqentry_nmi_enter() and
   irqentry_nmi_exit() helper functions.

 - Rework the cryptographic Adjunct Processors (AP) pass-through design
   to support dynamic changes to the AP matrix of a running guest as
   well as to implement more of the AP architecture.

 - Minor boot code cleanups.

 - Grammar and typo fixes to hmcdrv and tape drivers.

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
 "Though there's been a decent amount of RNG-related development during
  this last cycle, not all of it is coming through this tree, as this
  cycle saw a shift toward tackling early boot time seeding issues,
  which took place in other trees as well.

  Here's a summary of the various patches:

   - The CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM .config option and the "nordrand" boot
     option have been removed, as they overlapped with the more widely
     supported and more sensible options, CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU and
     "random.trust_cpu". This change allowed simplifying a bit of arch
     code.

   - x86's RDRAND boot time test has been made a bit more robust, with
     RDRAND disabled if it's clearly producing bogus results. This would
     be a tip.git commit, technically, but I took it through random.git
     to avoid a large merge conflict.

   - The RNG has long since mixed in a timestamp very early in boot, on
     the premise that a computer that does the same things, but does so
     starting at different points in wall time, could be made to still
     produce a different RNG state. Unfortunately, the clock isn't set
     early in boot on all systems, so now we mix in that timestamp when
     the time is actually set.

   - User Mode Linux now uses the host OS's getrandom() syscall to
     generate a bootloader RNG seed and later on treats getrandom() as
     the platform's RDRAND-like faculty.

   - The arch_get_random_{seed_,}_long() family of functions is now
     arch_get_random_{seed_,}_longs(), which enables certain platforms,
     such as s390, to exploit considerable performance advantages from
     requesting multiple CPU random numbers at once, while at the same
     time compiling down to the same code as before on platforms like
     x86.

   - A small cleanup changing a cmpxchg() into a try_cmpxchg(), from
     Uros.

   - A comment spelling fix"

architecture trees in the full commentary in the pull request:

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:
 "Though there's been a decent amount of RNG-related development during
  this last cycle, not all of it is coming through this tree, as this
  cycle saw a shift toward tackling early boot time seeding issues,
  which took place in other trees as well.

  Here's a summary of the various patches:

   - The CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM .config option and the "nordrand" boot
     option have been removed, as they overlapped with the more widely
     supported and more sensible options, CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU and
     "random.trust_cpu". This change allowed simplifying a bit of arch
     code.

   - x86's RDRAND boot time test has been made a bit more robust, with
     RDRAND disabled if it's clearly producing bogus results. This would
     be a tip.git commit, technically, but I took it through random.git
     to avoid a large merge conflict.

   - The RNG has long since mixed in a timestamp very early in boot, on
     the premise that a computer that does the same things, but does so
     starting at different points in wall time, could be made to still
     produce a different RNG state. Unfortunately, the clock isn't set
     early in boot on all systems, so now we mix in that timestamp when
     the time is actually set.

   - User Mode Linux now uses the host OS's getrandom() syscall to
     generate a bootloader RNG seed and later on treats getrandom() as
     the platform's RDRAND-like faculty.

   - The arch_get_random_{seed_,}_long() family of functions is now
     arch_get_random_{seed_,}_longs(), which enables certain platforms,
     such as s390, to exploit considerable performance advantages from
     requesting multiple CPU random numbers at once, while at the same
     time compiling down to the same code as before on platforms like
     x86.

   - A small cleanup changing a cmpxchg() into a try_cmpxchg(), from
     Uros.

   - A comment spelling fix"

<title>powerpc/powernv: rename remaining rng powernv_ functions to pnv_</title>

The preferred nomenclature is pnv_, not powernv_, but rng.c used
powernv_ for some reason, which isn't consistent with the rest. A recent
commit added a few pnv_ functions to rng.c, making the file a bit of a
mishmash. This commit just replaces the rest of them.

<title>s390/cpufeature: rework to allow more than only hwcap bits</title>

Rework cpufeature implementation to allow for various cpu feature
indications, which is not only limited to hwcap bits. This is achieved
by adding a sequential list of cpu feature numbers, where each of them
is mapped to an entry which indicates what this number is about.

Each entry contains a type member, which indicates what feature
name space to look into (e.g. hwcap, or cpu facility). If wanted this
allows also to automatically load modules only in e.g. z/VM
configurations.

<id>9592eef7c16ec5fb9f36c4d9abe8eeffc2e1d2f3</id>
<content type='text'>
When RDRAND was introduced, there was much discussion on whether it
should be trusted and how the kernel should handle that. Initially, two
mechanisms cropped up, CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM, a compile time switch, and
"nordrand", a boot-time switch.

Later the thinking evolved. With a properly designed RNG, using RDRAND
values alone won't harm anything, even if the outputs are malicious.
Rather, the issue is whether those values are being *trusted* to be good
or not. And so a new set of options were introduced as the real
ones that people use -- CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU and "random.trust_cpu".
With these options, RDRAND is used, but it's not always credited. So in
the worst case, it does nothing, and in the best case, maybe it helps.

Along the way, CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM's meaning got sort of pulled into the
center and became something certain platforms force-select.

The old options don't really help with much, and it's a bit odd to have
special handling for these instructions when the kernel can deal fine
with the existence or untrusted existence or broken existence or
non-existence of that CPU capability.

Simplify the situation by removing CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM and using the
ordinary asm-generic fallback pattern instead, keeping the two options
that are actually used. For now it leaves "nordrand" for now, as the
removal of that will take a different route.

This pull request contains Broadcom SoC drivers updatse for 5.20, please
pull the following:

- Julia fixes a typo in the Broadcom STB legacy power management code

- Liang fixes a device_node reference count leak in the Broadcom STB BIU
  driver code error path(s)

- Nicolas and Stefan provide updates to the BCM2835 power management
  driver allowing its use on BCM2711 (Raspberry Pi 4) and to enable the
  use of the V3D GPU driver on such platforms. This is a merge of an
  immutable branch from Lee Jones' MFD tree

- William removes the use of CONFIG_ARCH_BCM_63XX which is removed and
  replaces the dependencies with CONFIG_ARCH_BCMBCA which is how all of
  the DSL/PON SoCs from Broadcom are now supported in the upstream
  kernel.
