commit 935a9fee51c945b8942be2d7b4bae069167b4886 upstream.

Found one system with UEFI/iBFT, kernel does not detect the iBFT during
iscsi_ibft module loading.

Root cause: on x86 (UEFI), we are calling of find_ibft_region() much earlier
- specifically in setup_arch() before ACPI is enabled.

Try to split acpi checking code out and call that later

At that time ACPI iBFT already get permanent mapped with ioremap.
So isa_virt_to_bus() will get wrong phys from right virt address.
We could just skip that phys address printing.

For legacy one, print the found address early.

-v2: update comments and description according to Konrad.
-v3: fix problem about module use case that is found by Konrad.
-v4: use acpi_get_table() instead of acpi_table_parse() to handle module use case that is found by Konrad again..

commit bda63586bc5929e97288cdb371bb6456504867ed upstream.

Currently the SigmaDSP firmware loader only works correctly on little-endian
systems. Fix this by using the proper endianess conversion functions.

commit c56935bdc0a8edf50237d3b0205133a5b0adc604 upstream.

The firmware header is not part of the CRC, so skip it. Otherwise the firmware
will be rejected due to non-matching CRCs.

<title>firmware: Sigma: Prevent out of bounds memory access</title>

commit 4f718a29fe4908c2cea782f751e9805319684e2b upstream.

The SigmaDSP firmware loader currently does not perform enough boundary size
checks when processing the firmware. As a result it is possible that a
malformed firmware can cause an out of bounds memory access.

This patch adds checks which ensure that both the action header and the payload
are completely inside the firmware data boundaries before processing them.
