The intel_idle driver will be modified to use ACPI _CST subsequently
and it will need to call acpi_processor_evaluate_cst(), so move that
function to acpi_processor.c so that it is always present (which is
required by intel_idle) and export it to modules to allow the ACPI
processor driver (which is modular) to call it.

No intentional functional impact.

The intel_idle driver will be modified to use ACPI _CST subsequently
and it will need to notify the platform firmware of that if
acpi_gbl_FADT.cst_control is set, so add a routine for this purpose,
acpi_processor_claim_cst_control(), to acpi_processor.c (so that it
is always present which is required by intel_idle) and export it
to allow the ACPI processor driver (which is modular) to call it.

Pull kernel lockdown mode from James Morris:
 "This is the latest iteration of the kernel lockdown patchset, from
  Matthew Garrett, David Howells and others.

  From the original description:

    This patchset introduces an optional kernel lockdown feature,
    intended to strengthen the boundary between UID 0 and the kernel.
    When enabled, various pieces of kernel functionality are restricted.
    Applications that rely on low-level access to either hardware or the
    kernel may cease working as a result - therefore this should not be
    enabled without appropriate evaluation beforehand.

    The majority of mainstream distributions have been carrying variants
    of this patchset for many years now, so there's value in providing a
    doesn't meet every distribution requirement, but gets us much closer
    to not requiring external patches.

  There are two major changes since this was last proposed for mainline:

   - Separating lockdown from EFI secure boot. Background discussion is
     covered here: https://lwn.net/Articles/751061/

   -  Implementation as an LSM, with a default stackable lockdown LSM
      module. This allows the lockdown feature to be policy-driven,
      rather than encoding an implicit policy within the mechanism.

  The new locked_down LSM hook is provided to allow LSMs to make a
  policy decision around whether kernel functionality that would allow
  tampering with or examining the runtime state of the kernel should be
  permitted.

  The included lockdown LSM provides an implementation with a simple
  policy intended for general purpose use. This policy provides a coarse
  level of granularity, controllable via the kernel command line:

    lockdown={integrity|confidentiality}

  Enable the kernel lockdown feature. If set to integrity, kernel features
  that allow userland to modify the running kernel are disabled. If set to
  confidentiality, kernel features that allow userland to extract
  confidential information from the kernel are also disabled.

  This may also be controlled via /sys/kernel/security/lockdown and
  overriden by kernel configuration.

  New or existing LSMs may implement finer-grained controls of the
  lockdown features. Refer to the lockdown_reason documentation in
  include/linux/security.h for details.

  The lockdown feature has had signficant design feedback and review
  across many subsystems. This code has been in linux-next for some
  weeks, with a few fixes applied along the way.

  Stephen Rothwell noted that commit 9d1f8be5cf42 ("bpf: Restrict bpf
  when kernel lockdown is in confidentiality mode") is missing a
  Signed-off-by from its author. Matthew responded that he is providing
  this under category (c) of the DCO"

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "These include a rework of the main suspend-to-idle code flow (related
  to the handling of spurious wakeups), a switch over of several users
  of cpufreq notifiers to QoS-based limits, a new devfreq driver for
  Tegra20, a new cpuidle driver and governor for virtualized guests, an
  extension of the wakeup sources framework to expose wakeup sources as
  device objects in sysfs, and more.

  Specifics:

   - Rework the main suspend-to-idle control flow to avoid repeating
     "noirq" device resume and suspend operations in case of spurious
     wakeups from the ACPI EC and decouple the ACPI EC wakeups support
     from the LPS0 _DSM support (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Extend the wakeup sources framework to expose wakeup sources as
     device objects in sysfs (Tri Vo, Stephen Boyd).

   - Expose system suspend statistics in sysfs (Kalesh Singh).

   - Introduce a new haltpoll cpuidle driver and a new matching governor
     for virtualized guests wanting to do guest-side polling in the idle
     loop (Marcelo Tosatti, Joao Martins, Wanpeng Li, Stephen Rothwell).

   - Fix the menu and teo cpuidle governors to allow the scheduler tick
     to be stopped if PM QoS is used to limit the CPU idle state exit
     latency in some cases (Rafael Wysocki).

   - Increase the resolution of the play_idle() argument to microseconds
     for more fine-grained injection of CPU idle cycles (Daniel
     Lezcano).

   - Switch over some users of cpuidle notifiers to the new QoS-based
     frequency limits and drop the CPUFREQ_ADJUST and CPUFREQ_NOTIFY
     policy notifier events (Viresh Kumar).

   - Add new cpufreq driver based on nvmem for sun50i (Yangtao Li).

   - Add support for MT8183 and MT8516 to the mediatek cpufreq driver
     (Andrew-sh.Cheng, Fabien Parent).

   - Add i.MX8MN support to the imx-cpufreq-dt cpufreq driver (Anson
     Huang).

   - Add qcs404 to cpufreq-dt-platdev blacklist (Jorge Ramirez-Ortiz).

   - Update the qcom cpufreq driver (among other things, to make it
     easier to extend and to use kryo cpufreq for other nvmem-based
     SoCs) and add qcs404 support to it (Niklas Cassel, Douglas
     RAILLARD, Sibi Sankar, Sricharan R).

   - Fix assorted issues and make assorted minor improvements in the
     cpufreq code (Colin Ian King, Douglas RAILLARD, Florian Fainelli,
     Gustavo Silva, Hariprasad Kelam).

   - Add new devfreq driver for NVidia Tegra20 (Dmitry Osipenko, Arnd
     Bergmann).

   - Add new Exynos PPMU events to devfreq events and extend that
     mechanism (Lukasz Luba).

   - Fix and clean up the exynos-bus devfreq driver (Kamil Konieczny).

   - Improve devfreq documentation and governor code, fix spelling typos
     in devfreq (Ezequiel Garcia, Krzysztof Kozlowski, Leonard Crestez,
     MyungJoo Ham, Gaël PORTAY).

   - Add regulators enable and disable to the OPP (operating performance
     points) framework (Kamil Konieczny).

   - Update the OPP framework to support multiple opp-suspend properties
     (Anson Huang).

   - Fix assorted issues and make assorted minor improvements in the OPP
     code (Niklas Cassel, Viresh Kumar, Yue Hu).

   - Clean up the generic power domains (genpd) framework (Ulf Hansson).

   - Clean up assorted pieces of power management code and documentation
     (Akinobu Mita, Amit Kucheria, Chuhong Yuan).

   - Update the pm-graph tool to version 5.5 including multiple fixes
     and improvements (Todd Brandt).

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "Although there isn't tonnes of code in terms of line count, there are
  a fair few headline features which I've noted both in the tag and also
  in the merge commits when I pulled everything together.

  The part I'm most pleased with is that we had 35 contributors this
  time around, which feels like a big jump from the usual small group of

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
 "Although there isn't tonnes of code in terms of line count, there are
  a fair few headline features which I've noted both in the tag and also
  in the merge commits when I pulled everything together.

  The part I'm most pleased with is that we had 35 contributors this
  time around, which feels like a big jump from the usual small group of
  core arm64 arch developers. Hopefully they all enjoyed it so much that
  they'll continue to contribute, but we'll see.

<title>acpi: Ignore acpi_rsdp kernel param when the kernel has been locked down</title>

<id>41fa1ee9c6d687afb05760dd349f361855f1d7f5</id>
<content type='text'>
This option allows userspace to pass the RSDP address to the kernel, which
makes it possible for a user to modify the workings of hardware. Reject
the option when the kernel is locked down. This requires some reworking
of the existing RSDP command line logic, since the early boot code also
makes use of a command-line passed RSDP when locating the SRAT table
before the lockdown code has been initialised. This is achieved by
separating the command line RSDP path in the early boot code from the
generic RSDP path, and then copying the command line RSDP into boot
params in the kernel proper if lockdown is not enabled. If lockdown is
enabled and an RSDP is provided on the command line, this will only be
used when parsing SRAT (which shouldn't permit kernel code execution)
and will be ignored in the rest of the kernel.

(Modified by Matthew Garrett in order to handle the early boot RSDP
environment)

ACPI 6.3 adds a flag to the CPU node to indicate whether
the given PE is a thread. Add a function to return that
information for a given linux logical CPU.

The API, which belongs to GPIO library, is foreign to ACPI headers. Earlier
we moved out I²C out of the latter, and now it's time for
acpi_dev_add_driver_gpios() et al.

For time being the acpi_gpio_get_irq_resource() and acpi_dev_gpio_irq_get()
are left untouched as they need more thought about.

Note, it requires uninline acpi_dev_remove_driver_gpios() to keep purity of
consumer.h.

<title>ACPI: PM: Set up EC GPE for system wakeup from drivers that need it</title>

<id>10a08fd65ec1a68ccd86b19ec822ed5f2e50113f</id>
<content type='text'>
The EC GPE needs to be set up for system wakeup only if there is a
driver depending on it, either intel-hid or intel-vbtn, bound to a
button device that is expected to wake up the system from sleep (such
as the power button on some Dell systems, like the XPS13 9360).  It
doesn't need to be set up for waking up the system from sleep in any
other cases and whether or not it is expected to wake up the system
from sleep doesn't depend on whether or not the LPS0 device is
present in the ACPI namespace.

For this reason, rearrange the ACPI suspend-to-idle code to make the
drivers depending on the EC GPE wakeup take care of setting it up and
decouple that from the LPS0 device handling.

While at it, make intel-hid and intel-vbtn prepare for system wakeup
only if they are allowed to wake up the system from sleep by user
space (via sysfs).

[Note that acpi_ec_mark_gpe_for_wake() and acpi_ec_set_gpe_wake_mask()
 are there to prevent the EC GPE from being disabled by the
 acpi_enable_all_wakeup_gpes() call in acpi_s2idle_prepare(), so on
 systems with either intel-hid or intel-vbtn this change doesn't
 affect any interactions with the hardware or platform firmware.]
