        Specifics:
      
         - Revert a recent ACPICA cleanup that attempted to get rid of all
           FADT version 2 legacy, but broke ACPI thermal management on at
           least one system (Rafael Wysocki).

           (Lv Zheng).
      
         - Fix a locking issue in the PCC channel initialization code that
           invokes devm_request_irq() under a spinlock (among other things)
           and causes lockdep to complain (Hoan Tran)"

       "These are hopefully the last GPIO fixes for v4.9. The most important

        for some time and me being confused about where the problem was really
        sitting, now this fix give this nice feeling that everything is solid
        and builds fine.
      
        Summary:
      
         - Finally, after being puzzled by a bunch of recurrent UML build
           failures on randconfigs from the build robot, Keno Fischer nailed
           it: GPIO_DEVRES is optional and depends on HAS_IOMEM even though
           many users just unconditionally rely on it to be available. And it
           *should* be available: garbage collection is nice for this and it
           *certainly* has nothing to do with having IOMEM. So we got rid of
           it, and now the UML builds should JustWork(TM).
      
         - Do not call .get_direction() on sleeping GPIO chips on the fastpath
           when locking GPIOs for interrupts: it is done from atomic context,
           no way.

      crypto: algif_hash - Fix NULL hash crash with shash · a8348bca
      Herbert Xu authored
      Recently algif_hash has been changed to allow null hashes.  This
      triggers a bug when used with an shash algorithm whereby it will
      cause a crash during the digest operation.
      
      This patch fixes it by avoiding the digest operation and instead
      doing an init followed by a final which avoids the buggy code in
      shash.
      
      This patch also ensures that the result buffer is freed after an
      error so that it is not returned as a genuine hash result on the
      next recv call.
      
      The shash/ahash wrapper code will be fixed later to handle this
      case correctly.

       "First round of -rc fixes.
      
        Due to various issues, I've been away and couldn't send a pull request
        for about three weeks. There were a number of -rc patches that built
        up in the meantime (some where there already from the early -rc
        stages). Obviously, there were way too many to send now, so I tried to
        pare the list down to the more important patches for the -rc cycle.
      
        Most of the code has had plenty of soak time at the various vendor's
        testing setups, so I doubt there will be another -rc pull request this
        cycle. I also tried to limit the patches to those with smaller
        footprints, so even though a shortlog is longer than I would like, the
        actual diffstat is mostly very small with the exception of just three
        files that had more changes, and a couple files with pure removals.

      mremap: fix race between mremap() and page cleanning · 5d190420
      Aaron Lu authored
      Prior to 3.15, there was a race between zap_pte_range() and
      page_mkclean() where writes to a page could be lost.  Dave Hansen
      discovered by inspection that there is a similar race between
      move_ptes() and page_mkclean().
      
      We've been able to reproduce the issue by enlarging the race window with
      a msleep(), but have not been able to hit it without modifying the code.
      So, we think it's a real issue, but is difficult or impossible to hit in
      practice.
      
      The zap_pte_range() issue is fixed by commit 1cf35d47
      
      ("mm: split
      'tlb_flush_mmu()' into tlb flushing and memory freeing parts").  And
      this patch is to fix the race between page_mkclean() and mremap().
      
      Here is one possible way to hit the race: suppose a process mmapped a
      file with READ | WRITE and SHARED, it has two threads and they are bound
      to 2 different CPUs, e.g.  CPU1 and CPU2.  mmap returned X, then thread
      1 did a write to addr X so that CPU1 now has a writable TLB for addr X
      on it.  Thread 2 starts mremaping from addr X to Y while thread 1
      cleaned the page and then did another write to the old addr X again.
      The 2nd write from thread 1 could succeed but the value will get lost.
      
              thread 1                           thread 2
           (bound to CPU1)                    (bound to CPU2)
      
        1: write 1 to addr X to get a
           writeable TLB on this CPU
      
                                              2: mremap starts
      
                                              3: move_ptes emptied PTE for addr X
                                                 and setup new PTE for addr Y and
                                                 then dropped PTL for X and Y
      
        4: page laundering for N by doing
           fadvise FADV_DONTNEED. When done,
           pageframe N is deemed clean.
      
        5: *write 2 to addr X
      
                                              6: tlb flush for addr X
      
        7: munmap (Y, pagesize) to make the
           page unmapped
      
        8: fadvise with FADV_DONTNEED again
           to kick the page off the pagecache
      
        9: pread the page from file to verify
           the value. If 1 is there, it means
           we have lost the written 2.
      
        *the write may or may not cause segmentation fault, it depends on
        if the TLB is still on the CPU.
      
      Please note that this is only one specific way of how the race could
      occur, it didn't mean that the race could only occur in exact the above
      config, e.g. more than 2 threads could be involved and fadvise() could
      be done in another thread, etc.
      
      For anonymous pages, they could race between mremap() and page reclaim:
      THP: a huge PMD is moved by mremap to a new huge PMD, then the new huge
      PMD gets unmapped/splitted/pagedout before the flush tlb happened for
      the old huge PMD in move_page_tables() and we could still write data to
      it.  The normal anonymous page has similar situation.
      
      To fix this, check for any dirty PTE in move_ptes()/move_huge_pmd() and
      if any, did the flush before dropping the PTL.  If we did the flush for
      every move_ptes()/move_huge_pmd() call then we do not need to do the
      flush in move_pages_tables() for the whole range.  But if we didn't, we
      still need to do the whole range flush.
      
      Alternatively, we can track which part of the range is flushed in
      move_ptes()/move_huge_pmd() and which didn't to avoid flushing the whole
      range in move_page_tables().  But that would require multiple tlb
      flushes for the different sub-ranges and should be less efficient than
      the single whole range flush.
      
      KBuild test on my Sandybridge desktop doesn't show any noticeable change.
