Pull core fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A small set of core updates:

   - Make the watchdog respect the selected CPU mask again. That was
     broken by the rework of the watchdog thread management and caused
     inconsistent state and NMI watchdog being unstoppable.

   - Ensure that the objtool build can find the libelf location.

   - Remove dead kcore stub code"

  Summary:

   - Revert the extended use of gpio_set_config() and think about how we
     can do this properly.

   - Fix up the SPI CS GPIO handling so it now works properly on the SPI
     bus children, as intended.

  The habanalabs fixes are all minor, resolving a number of tiny things.

  The vboxguest patches are a bit larger. They resolve the fact that
  virtual box decided to change their api in their latest release in a
  way that broke the existing kernel code, despite saying that they were
  never going to do that. So this is a bit of a "new feature", but is
  good to get merged so that 5.1 will work with the latest release. The
  changes are not large and of course virtual box "swears" they will not
  break this again, but no one is holding their breath here.

<title>ptrace: take into account saved_sigmask in PTRACE{GET,SET}SIGMASK</title>

There are a few system calls (pselect, ppoll, etc) which replace a task
sigmask while they are running in a kernel-space

When a task calls one of these syscalls, the kernel saves a current
sigmask in task-&gt;saved_sigmask and sets a syscall sigmask.

On syscall-exit-stop, ptrace traps a task before restoring the
saved_sigmask, so PTRACE_GETSIGMASK returns the syscall sigmask and
PTRACE_SETSIGMASK does nothing, because its sigmask is replaced by
saved_sigmask, when the task returns to user-space.

This patch fixes this problem.  PTRACE_GETSIGMASK returns saved_sigmask
if it's set.  PTRACE_SETSIGMASK drops the TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK flag.

     mm/memory.c:3968:21:    expected restricted vm_fault_t [usertype] ret

This patch converts to return vm_fault_t type for hugetlb_fault() when
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE=n.

Regarding the sparse warning, Luc said:

: This is the expected behaviour.  The constant 0 is magic regarding bitwise
: types but ({ ...; 0; }) is not, it is just an ordinary expression of type
: 'int'.
:
: So, IMHO, Souptick's patch is the right thing to do.

This patch converts to return vm_fault_t type for hugetlb_fault() when
CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE=n.

Regarding the sparse warning, Luc said:

: This is the expected behaviour.  The constant 0 is magic regarding bitwise
: types but ({ ...; 0; }) is not, it is just an ordinary expression of type
: 'int'.
:
: So, IMHO, Souptick's patch is the right thing to do.

Patch series "iommu/io-pgtable-arm-v7s: Use DMA32 zone for page tables",
v6.

This is a followup to the discussion in [1], [2].

IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables (level 1
and 2) to be allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit
systems.

For L1 tables that are bigger than a page, we can just use
__get_free_pages with GFP_DMA32 (on arm64 systems only, arm would still
use GFP_DMA).

For L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate a full
page, so we considered 3 approaches:
 1. This series, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches.
 2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2 page
    tables (4096, so 4MB of memory).
 3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable to reuse
    freed fragments until the whole page is freed. [3]

This series is the most memory-efficient approach.

stable@ note:
  We confirmed that this is a regression, and IOMMU errors happen on 4.19
  and linux-next/master on MT8173 (elm, Acer Chromebook R13). The issue
  most likely starts from commit ad67f5a6545f ("arm64: replace ZONE_DMA
  with ZONE_DMA32"), i.e. 4.15, and presumably breaks a number of Mediatek
  platforms (and maybe others?).

This patch (of 3):

IOMMUs using ARMv7 short-descriptor format require page tables to be
allocated within the first 4GB of RAM, even on 64-bit systems.  On arm64,
this is done by passing GFP_DMA32 flag to memory allocation functions.

For IOMMU L2 tables that only take 1KB, it would be a waste to allocate
a full page using get_free_pages, so we considered 3 approaches:
 1. This patch, adding support for GFP_DMA32 slab caches.
 2. genalloc, which requires pre-allocating the maximum number of L2
    page tables (4096, so 4MB of memory).
 3. page_frag, which is not very memory-efficient as it is unable
    to reuse freed fragments until the whole page is freed.

This change makes it possible to create a custom cache in DMA32 zone using
kmem_cache_create, then allocate memory using kmem_cache_alloc.

We do not create a DMA32 kmalloc cache array, as there are currently no
users of kmalloc(..., GFP_DMA32).  These calls will continue to trigger a
warning, as we keep GFP_DMA32 in GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK.

This implies that calls to kmem_cache_*alloc on a SLAB_CACHE_DMA32
kmem_cache must _not_ use GFP_DMA32 (it is anyway redundant and
unnecessary).

<title>mm/hotplug: fix offline undo_isolate_page_range()</title>

Commit f1dd2cd13c4b ("mm, memory_hotplug: do not associate hotadded
memory to zones until online") introduced move_pfn_range_to_zone() which
calls memmap_init_zone() during onlining a memory block.
memmap_init_zone() will reset pagetype flags and makes migrate type to
be MOVABLE.

However, in __offline_pages(), it also call undo_isolate_page_range()
after offline_isolated_pages() to do the same thing.  Due to commit
2ce13640b3f4 ("mm: __first_valid_page skip over offline pages") changed
__first_valid_page() to skip offline pages, undo_isolate_page_range()
here just waste CPU cycles looping around the offlining PFN range while
doing nothing, because __first_valid_page() will return NULL as
offline_isolated_pages() has already marked all memory sections within
the pfn range as offline via offline_mem_sections().

Also, after calling the "useless" undo_isolate_page_range() here, it
reaches the point of no returning by notifying MEM_OFFLINE.  Those pages
will be marked as MIGRATE_MOVABLE again once onlining.  The only thing
left to do is to decrease the number of isolated pageblocks zone counter
which would make some paths of the page allocation slower that the above
commit introduced.

Even if alloc_contig_range() can be used to isolate 16GB-hugetlb pages
on ppc64, an "int" should still be enough to represent the number of
pageblocks there.  Fix an incorrect comment along the way.
