Pull SCSI fixes from James Bottomley:
 "Three fixes this time, two in SES picked up by KASAN for various types
  of buffer overrun.  The first is a USB array which returns page 8
  whatever is asked for and causes us to overrun with incorrect data
  format assumptions and the second is an invalid iteration of page 10
  (the additional information page).

  The final fix is a reversion of a NULL deref fix which caused
  suspend/resume not to be called in pairs leading to incorrect device
  operation (Jens has queued a more proper fix for the problem in
  block)"

Using RING_GET_REQUEST() on a shared ring is easy to use incorrectly
(i.e., by not considering that the other end may alter the data in the
shared ring while it is being inspected).  Safe usage of a request
generally requires taking a local copy.

Provide a RING_COPY_REQUEST() macro to use instead of
RING_GET_REQUEST() and an open-coded memcpy().  This takes care of
ensuring that the copy is done correctly regardless of any possible
compiler optimizations.

Use a volatile source to prevent the compiler from reordering or
omitting the copy.

This is part of XSA155.

David Ahern added a vif field in the a4 part of inetpeer_addr struct.

This broke IPv4 TCP fast open client side and more generally tcp metrics
cache, because inetpeer_addr_cmp() is now comparing two u32 instead of
one.

inetpeer_set_addr_v4() needs to properly init vif field, otherwise
the comparison result depends on uninitialized data.

Pull dmaengine fixes from Vinod Koul:
 "This has fixes spread thru driver, notably among them:

   - edma fixes for recent edma DT changes which went into 4.4
   - odd fixes for at_hdmac
   - minor fixes on bc dma and mic dma"

* tag 'dmaengine-fix-4.4-rc6' of git://git.infradead.org/users/vkoul/slave-dma:
  dmaengine: at_xdmac: fix at_xdmac_prep_dma_memcpy()

David Wilder reported crashes caused by dst reuse.

&lt;quote David&gt;
  I am seeing a crash on a distro V4.2.3 kernel caused by a double
  release of a dst_entry.  In ipv4_dst_destroy() the call to
  list_empty() finds a poisoned next pointer, indicating the dst_entry
  has already been removed from the list and freed. The crash occurs
  18 to 24 hours into a run of a network stress exerciser.
&lt;/quote&gt;

Thanks to his detailed report and analysis, we were able to understand
the core issue.

IP early demux can associate a dst to skb, after a lookup in TCP/UDP
sockets.

When socket cache is not properly set, we want to store into
sk-&gt;sk_dst_cache the dst for future IP early demux lookups,
by acquiring a stable refcount on the dst.

Problem is this acquisition is simply using an atomic_inc(),
which works well, unless the dst was queued for destruction from
dst_release() noticing dst refcount went to zero, if DST_NOCACHE
was set on dst.

We need to make sure current refcount is not zero before incrementing
it, or risk double free as David reported.

This patch, being a stable candidate, adds two new helpers, and use
them only from IP early demux problematic paths.

It might be possible to merge in net-next skb_dst_force() and
skb_dst_force_safe(), but I prefer having the smallest patch for stable
kernels : Maybe some skb_dst_force() callers do not expect skb-&gt;dst
can suddenly be cleared.

Can probably be backported back to linux-3.6 kernels
