commit 80ccf4ad06dc9d2f06a8347b2d309cdc959f72b3 upstream.

img_ir_remove() passes a pointer to the ISR function as the 2nd
parameter to irq_free() instead of a pointer to the device data
structure.
This issue causes unloading img-ir module to fail with the below
warning after building and loading img-ir as a module.

<title>rc-main: Re-apply filter for no-op protocol change</title>

commit 983c5bd26b86ba1c0d79b770e596bb8b77e42f32 upstream.

Since commit da6e162d6a46 ("[media] rc-core: simplify sysfs code"), when
the IR protocol is set using the sysfs interface to the same set of
protocols that are already set, store_protocols() does not refresh the
scancode filter with the new protocol, even if it has already called the
change_protocol() callback successfully. This results in the filter
being disabled in the hardware and not re-enabled until the filter is
set again using sysfs.

Fix in store_protocols() by still re-applying the filter whenever the
change_protocol() driver callback succeeded.

The problem can be reproduced with the img-ir driver by setting a
filter, and then setting the protocol to the same protocol that is
already set:
$ echo nec &gt; protocols
$ echo 0xffff &gt; filter_mask
$ echo nec &gt; protocols

After this, messages which don't match the filter were still being
received.

Fixes: da6e162d6a46 ("[media] rc-core: simplify sysfs code")

  They are dominated by the removal of the .owner field in platform

  Other than that, a few minor driver core and debugfs changes.  There
  are some ath9k patches coming in through this tree that have been
  acked by the wireless maintainers as they relied on the debugfs
  changes.

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
 - Two new dvb frontend drivers: mn88472 and mn88473
 - A new driver for some PCIe DVBSky cards
 - A new remote controller driver: meson-ir
 - One LIRC staging driver got rewritten and promoted to mainstream:
   igorplugusb
 - A new tuner driver (m88rs6000t)
 - The old omap2 media driver got removed from staging.  This driver
   uses an old DMA API and it is likely broken on recent kernels.
   Nobody cared enough to fix it
 - Media bus format moved to a separate header, as DRM will also use the
   definitions there
 - mem2mem_testdev were renamed to vim2m, in order to use the same
   naming convention taken by the other virtual test driver (vivid)
 - Added a new driver for coda SoC (coda-jpeg)
 - The cx88 driver got converted to use videobuf2 core
 - Make DMABUF export buffer to work with DMA Scatter/Gather and Vmalloc
   cores
 - Lots of other fixes, improvements and cleanups on the drivers.

The ImgTec Infrared decoder block which img-ir drives is only used in
IMGWorks SoCs so far, such as the TZ1090 (Meta based) and the upcoming
Pistachio (MIPS based). Therefore make the driver depend on METAG (for
TZ1090) or MIPS (for Pistachio) or COMPILE_TEST (so that it is included
in x86 allmodconfig builds), to avoid cluttering the Kconfig menu with
drivers for hardware that isn't yet available on other platforms.

The end timer is used for switching back from repeat code timings when
no repeat codes have been received for a certain amount of time. When
the protocol is changed, the end timer is deleted synchronously with
del_timer_sync(), however this takes place while holding the main spin
lock, and the timer handler also needs to acquire the spin lock.

This opens the possibility of a deadlock on an SMP system if the
protocol is changed just as the repeat timer is expiring. One CPU could
end up in img_ir_set_decoder() holding the lock and waiting for the end
timer to complete, while the other CPU is stuck in the timer handler
spinning on the lock held by the first CPU.

Lockdep also spots a possible lock inversion in the same code, since
img_ir_set_decoder() acquires the img-ir lock before the timer lock, but
the timer handler will try and acquire them the other way around:

=========================================================
[ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
3.18.0-rc5+ #957 Not tainted
---------------------------------------------------------
swapper/0/0 just changed the state of lock:
 (((&amp;hw-&gt;end_timer))){+.-...}, at: [&lt;4006ae5c&gt;] _call_timer_fn+0x0/0xfc
but this lock was taken by another, HARDIRQ-safe lock in the past:
 (&amp;(&amp;priv-&gt;lock)-&gt;rlock#2){-.....}

and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

other info that might help us debug this:

 *** DEADLOCK ***

This is fixed by releasing the main spin lock while performing the
del_timer_sync() call. The timer is prevented from restarting before the
lock is reacquired by a new "stopping" flag which img_ir_handle_data()
checks before updating the timer.

The end timer is used for switching back from repeat code timings when
no repeat codes have been received for a certain amount of time. When
the protocol is changed, the end timer is deleted synchronously with
del_timer_sync(), however this takes place while holding the main spin
lock, and the timer handler also needs to acquire the spin lock.

This opens the possibility of a deadlock on an SMP system if the
protocol is changed just as the repeat timer is expiring. One CPU could
end up in img_ir_set_decoder() holding the lock and waiting for the end
timer to complete, while the other CPU is stuck in the timer handler
spinning on the lock held by the first CPU.

Lockdep also spots a possible lock inversion in the same code, since
img_ir_set_decoder() acquires the img-ir lock before the timer lock, but
the timer handler will try and acquire them the other way around:

A problem was found on Polaris where if the unit it booted via the power
button on the infrared remote then the next button press on the remote
would return the key code used to power on the unit.

The sequence is:
 - The polaris powered off but with the powerdown controller (PDC) block
   still powered.
 - Press power key on remote, IR block receives the key.
 - Kernel starts, IR code is in IMG_IR_DATA_x but neither IMG_IR_RXDVAL
   or IMG_IR_RXDVALD2 are set.
 - Wait any amount of time.
 - Press any key.
 - IMG_IR_RXDVAL or IMG_IR_RXDVALD2 is set but IMG_IR_DATA_x is
   unchanged since the powerup key data was never read.

This is worked around by always reading the IMG_IR_DATA_x in
img_ir_set_decoder(), rather than only when the IMG_IR_RXDVAL or
IMG_IR_RXDVALD2 bit is set.
