commit 00b4d9a14125f1e51874def2b9de6092e007412d upstream.

On some 32 bits architectures, including x86, GENMASK(31, 0) returns 0
instead of the expected ~0UL.

This is the same on some 64 bits architectures with GENMASK_ULL(63, 0).

This is due to an overflow in the shift operand, 1 &lt;&lt; 32 for GENMASK,
1 &lt;&lt; 64 for GENMASK_ULL.

<title>clk-divider: Fix READ_ONLY when divider &gt; 1</title>

commit e6d5e7d90be92cee626d7ec16ca9b06f1eed710b upstream.

Commit 79c6ab509558 (clk: divider: add CLK_DIVIDER_READ_ONLY flag) in
v3.16 introduced the CLK_DIVIDER_READ_ONLY flag which caused the
recalc_rate() and round_rate() clock callbacks to be omitted.

However using this flag has the unfortunate side effect of causing the
clock recalculation code when a clock rate change is attempted to always
treat it as a pass-through clock, i.e. with a fixed divide of 1, which
may not be the case. Child clock rates are then recalculated using the
wrong parent rate.

Therefore instead of dropping the recalc_rate() and round_rate()
callbacks, alter clk_divider_bestdiv() to always report the current
divider as the best divider so that it is never altered.

For me the read only clock was the system clock, which divided the PLL
rate by 2, from which both the UART and the SPI clocks were divided.
Initial setting of the UART rate set it correctly, but when the SPI
clock was set, the other child clocks were miscalculated. The UART clock
was recalculated using the PLL rate as the parent rate, resulting in a
UART new_rate of double what it should be, and a UART which spewed forth
garbage when the rate changes were propagated.

commit ccf54555da9a5e91e454b909ca6a5303c7d6b910 upstream.

The direction field is set on 7 bits, thus we need to AND it with 0111 111 mask
in order to retrieve it, that is 0x7F, not 0xCF as it is now.

commit f144d1496b47e7450f41b767d0d91c724c2198bc upstream.

This can be set by quirks/drivers to be used by the architecture code
that assigns the MSI addresses.

We additionally add verification in the core MSI code that the values
assigned by the architecture do satisfy the limitation in order to fail
gracefully if they don't (ie. the arch hasn't been updated to deal with
that quirk yet).

[ Upstream commit 84bc88688e3f6ef843aa8803dbcd90168bb89faf ]

There could be a signed overflow in the following code.

The expression, (32-logmask) is comprised between 0 and 31 included.
It may be equal to 31.
In such a case the left shift will produce a signed integer overflow.
According to the C99 Standard, this is an undefined behavior.
A simple fix is to replace the signed int 1 with the unsigned int 1U.

<title>mm, thp: fix collapsing of hugepages on madvise</title>

commit 6d50e60cd2edb5a57154db5a6f64eef5aa59b751 upstream.

If an anonymous mapping is not allowed to fault thp memory and then
madvise(MADV_HUGEPAGE) is used after fault, khugepaged will never
collapse this memory into thp memory.

This occurs because the madvise(2) handler for thp, hugepage_madvise(),
clears VM_NOHUGEPAGE on the stack and it isn't stored in vma-&gt;vm_flags
until the final action of madvise_behavior().  This causes the
khugepaged_enter_vma_merge() to be a no-op in hugepage_madvise() when
the vma had previously had VM_NOHUGEPAGE set.

Fix this by passing the correct vma flags to the khugepaged mm slot
handler.  There's no chance khugepaged can run on this vma until after
madvise_behavior() returns since we hold mm-&gt;mmap_sem.

It would be possible to clear VM_NOHUGEPAGE directly from vma-&gt;vm_flags
in hugepage_advise(), but I didn't want to introduce special case
behavior into madvise_behavior().  I think it's best to just let it
always set vma-&gt;vm_flags itself.

commit 96a2adbc6f501996418da9f7afe39bf0e4d006a9 upstream.

kernel/time/jiffies.c provides a default clocksource_default_clock()
definition explicitly marked "weak".  arch/s390 provides its own definition
intended to override the default, but the "weak" attribute on the
declaration applied to the s390 definition as well, so the linker chose one
based on link order (see 10629d711ed7 ("PCI: Remove __weak annotation from
pcibios_get_phb_of_node decl")).

Remove the "weak" attribute from the clocksource_default_clock()
declaration so we always prefer a non-weak definition over the weak one,
independent of link order.

Remove the "weak" attribute from the declaration so we always prefer a
non-weak definition over the weak one, independent of link order.

commit 5ab03ac5aaa1f032e071f1b3dc433b7839359c03 upstream.

For the following functions:

  elfcorehdr_alloc()
  elfcorehdr_free()
  elfcorehdr_read()
  elfcorehdr_read_notes()
  remap_oldmem_pfn_range()

fs/proc/vmcore.c provides default definitions explicitly marked "weak".
arch/s390 provides its own definitions intended to override the default
ones, but the "weak" attribute on the declarations applied to the s390
definitions as well, so the linker chose one based on link order (see
10629d711ed7 ("PCI: Remove __weak annotation from pcibios_get_phb_of_node
decl")).

Remove the "weak" attribute from the declarations so we always prefer a
non-weak definition over the weak one, independent of link order.

Fixes: 9cb218131de1 ("vmcore: introduce remap_oldmem_pfn_range()")

commit e0a8400c6923a163265d52798cdd4c33f3f8ab5a upstream.

drivers/base/memory.c provides a default memory_block_size_bytes()
definition explicitly marked "weak".  Several architectures provide their
own definitions intended to override the default, but the "weak" attribute
on the declaration applied to the arch definitions as well, so the linker
chose one based on link order (see 10629d711ed7 ("PCI: Remove __weak
annotation from pcibios_get_phb_of_node decl")).

Remove the "weak" attribute from the declaration so we always prefer a
non-weak definition over the weak one, independent of link order.
