commit 4f3445067d5f78fb8d1970b02610f85c2f377ea4 upstream.

The probe function is not marked __init, but some other functions
are. This leads to a warning on older compilers (e.g. gcc-4.3),
and can cause executing freed memory when built with those
compilers:

WARNING: drivers/staging/emxx_udc/emxx_udc.o(.text+0x2d78): Section mismatch in reference from the function nbu2ss_drv_probe() to the function .init.text:nbu2ss_drv_contest_init()

This removes the annotations.

<title>IB/ehca: fix maybe-uninitialized warnings</title>

<id>fee1f42b961e6cc3ec570e1fdba224d7d49b517d</id>
<content type='text'>
The driver causes two warnings about possibly uninitialized variables:

drivers/infiniband/hw/ehca/ehca_mrmw.c: In function 'ehca_set_pagebuf':
drivers/infiniband/hw/ehca/ehca_mrmw.c:1908:4: warning: 'prev_pgaddr' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
drivers/infiniband/hw/ehca/ehca_mrmw.c:1924:14: note: 'prev_pgaddr' was declared here
drivers/infiniband/hw/ehca/ehca_mrmw.c: In function 'ehca_reg_mr':
drivers/infiniband/hw/ehca/ehca_mrmw.c:2430:5: warning: 'hret' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

The first one is definitely a false positive, the second one may or may not
be one. In both cases, adding an intialization is the safe and easy
workaround.

The driver was removed in mainline in commit e581d111dad3
("staging/rdma: remove deprecated ehca driver"), in linux-4.6.
In 4.4, the file is located in drivers/staging/rdma/ehca/ehca_mrmw.c,
and the fix still applies.

<title>staging/android/ion : fix a race condition in the ion driver</title>

commit 9590232bb4f4cc824f3425a6e1349afbe6d6d2b7 upstream.

There is a use-after-free problem in the ion driver.
This is caused by a race condition in the ion_ioctl()
function.

A handle has ref count of 1 and two tasks on different
cpus calls ION_IOC_FREE simultaneously.

cpu 0                                   cpu 1
-------------------------------------------------------
ion_handle_get_by_id()
(ref == 2)
                            ion_handle_get_by_id()
                            (ref == 3)

ion_free()
(ref == 2)

ion_handle_put()
(ref == 1)

                            ion_free()
                            (ref == 0 so ion_handle_destroy() is
                            called
                            and the handle is freed.)

                            ion_handle_put() is called and it
                            decreases the slub's next free pointer

The problem is detected as an unaligned access in the
spin lock functions since it uses load exclusive
 instruction. In some cases it corrupts the slub's
free pointer which causes a mis-aligned access to the
next free pointer.(kmalloc returns a pointer like
ffffc0745b4580aa). And it causes lots of other
hard-to-debug problems.

This symptom is caused since the first member in the
ion_handle structure is the reference count and the
ion driver decrements the reference after it has been
freed.

To fix this problem client-&gt;lock mutex is extended
to protect all the codes that uses the handle.

commit 97fbfef6bd597888485b653175fb846c6998b60c upstream.

vfs_llseek will check whether the file mode has
FMODE_LSEEK, no return failure. But ashmem can be
lseek, so add FMODE_LSEEK to ashmem file.

Comment From Greg Hackmann:
	ashmem_llseek() passes the llseek() call through to the backing
	shmem file.  91360b02ab48 ("ashmem: use vfs_llseek()") changed
	this from directly calling the file's llseek() op into a VFS
	layer call.  This also adds a check for the FMODE_LSEEK bit, so
	without that bit ashmem_llseek() now always fails with -ESPIPE.

commit 6e017006022abfea5d2466cad936065f45763ad1 upstream.

gcc-7 detects that wlanhdr_to_ethhdr() in two drivers calls memcpy() with
a destination argument that an earlier function call may have set to NULL:

staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_recv.c: In function 'wlanhdr_to_ethhdr':
staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_recv.c:1318:2: warning: argument 1 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull]
staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_recv.c: In function 'r8712_wlanhdr_to_ethhdr':
staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_recv.c:649:2: warning: argument 1 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull]

I'm fixing this by adding a NULL pointer check and returning failure
from the function, which is hopefully already handled properly.

This seems to date back to when the drivers were originally added,
so backporting the fix to stable seems appropriate. There are other
related realtek drivers in the kernel, but none of them contain a
function with a similar name or produce this warning.

commit f6b1160eb27f990cc1c48b67a5f83cb63115284e upstream.

Arnd Bergmann pointed out that gcc-6 warns about passing negative signed
integer into swab16() due to the macro expansion of 'outw'.

It appears that the register map constants are causing the warnings.
Actually, it might just be the (1 &lt;&lt; 15) ones...

Convert all the constants as suggested by checkpatch.pl:
CHECK: Prefer using the BIT macro

The BIT() macro will make all the constants explicitly 'unsigned', which
helps to avoid the warning.

Fix the, unsused, DT2821_CHANCSR_PRESLA() macro. The "Present List
Address" (PRESLA) bits in the CHANCSR register are read only. This
define was meant to extract the bits from the read value.

commit b321a38d2407c7e425c54bc09be909a34e49f740 upstream.

The oversampling ratio is controlled using the oversampling pins,
OS [2:0] with OS2 being the MSB control bit, and OS0 the LSB control
bit.

The gpio connected to the OS2 pin is not being set correctly, only OS0
and OS1 pins are being set. Fix the typo to allow proper control of the
oversampling pins.

<title>staging: comedi: ni_mio_common: fix E series ni_ai_insn_read() data</title>

commit 857a661020a2de3a0304edf33ad656abee100891 upstream.

Commit 0557344e2149 ("staging: comedi: ni_mio_common: fix local var for
32-bit read") changed the type of local variable `d` from `unsigned
short` to `unsigned int` to fix a bug introduced in
commit 9c340ac934db ("staging: comedi: ni_stc.h: add read/write
callbacks to struct ni_private") when reading AI data for NI PCI-6110
and PCI-6111 cards.  Unfortunately, other parts of the function rely on
the variable being `unsigned short` when an offset value in local
variable `signbits` is added to `d` before writing the value to the
`data` array:

			d += signbits;
		  	data[n] = d;

The `signbits` variable will be non-zero in bipolar mode, and is used to
convert the hardware's 2's complement, 16-bit numbers to Comedi's
straight binary sample format (with 0 representing the most negative
voltage).  This breaks because `d` is now 32 bits wide instead of 16
bits wide, so after the addition of `signbits`, `data[n]` ends up being
set to values above 65536 for negative voltages.  This affects all
supported "E series" cards except PCI-6143 (and PXI-6143). Fix it by
ANDing the value written to the `data[n]` with the mask 0xffff.

commit 655c4d442d1213b617926cc6d54e2a9a793fb46b upstream.

For NI M Series cards, the Comedi `insn_read` handler for the AI
subdevice is broken due to ANDing the value read from the AI FIFO data
register with an incorrect mask.  The incorrect mask clears all but the
most significant bit of the sample data.  It should preserve all the
sample data bits.  Correct it.
