Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Slightly delayed due to the issue with printk() calling
  probe_kernel_read() interacting with our new user access prevention
  stuff, but all fixed now.

  The only out-of-area changes are the addition of a cpuhp_state, small
  additions to Documentation and MAINTAINERS updates.

  Highlights:

   - Support for Kernel Userspace Access/Execution Prevention (like
     SMAP/SMEP/PAN/PXN) on some 64-bit and 32-bit CPUs. This prevents
     the kernel from accidentally accessing userspace outside
     copy_to/from_user(), or ever executing userspace.

   - KASAN support on 32-bit.

   - Rework of where we map the kernel, vmalloc, etc. on 64-bit hash to
     use the same address ranges we use with the Radix MMU.

   - A rewrite into C of large parts of our idle handling code for
     64-bit Book3S (ie. power8 &amp; power9).

   - A fast path entry for syscalls on 32-bit CPUs, for a 12-17% speedup
     in the null_syscall benchmark.

   - On 64-bit bare metal we have support for recovering from errors
     with the time base (our clocksource), however if that fails
     currently we hang in __delay() and never crash. We now have support
     for detecting that case and short circuiting __delay() so we at
     least panic() and reboot.

   - Add support for optionally enabling the DAWR on Power9, which had
     to be disabled by default due to a hardware erratum. This has the
     effect of enabling hardware breakpoints for GDB, the downside is a
     badly behaved program could crash the machine by pointing the DAWR
     at cache inhibited memory. This is opt-in obviously.

   - xmon, our crash handler, gets support for a read only mode where
     operations that could change memory or otherwise disturb the system
     are disabled.

  Plus many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

Recent versions of QEMU provide a XHCI device by default these
days instead of an old-fashioned OHCI device:

 https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commitdiff;h=57040d451315320b7d27

So to get the keyboard working in the graphical console there again,
we should now include XHCI support in the kernel by default, too.

The software Hamming ECC correction implementation is referred as
MTD_NAND_ECC which is too generic. Rename it
MTD_NAND_ECC_SW_HAMMING. Also rename MTD_NAND_ECC_SMC which is an
SMC quirk in the Hamming implementation as
MTD_NAND_ECC_SW_HAMMING_SMC.

<id>urn:sha1:8adddf349fda0d3de2f6bb41ddf838cbf36a8ad2</id>
<content type='text'>
Joel reported weird crashes using skiroot_defconfig, in his case we
jumped into an NX page:

  kernel tried to execute exec-protected page (c000000002bff4f0) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)
  BUG: Unable to handle kernel instruction fetch
  Faulting instruction address: 0xc000000002bff4f0

Looking at the disassembly, we had simply branched to that address:

  c000000000c001bc  49fff335    bl     c000000002bff4f0

But that didn't match the original kernel image:

  c000000000c001bc  4bfff335    bl     c000000000bff4f0 &lt;kobject_get+0x8&gt;

When STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is enabled, and we're using the radix MMU, we
call radix__change_memory_range() late in boot to change page
protections. We do that both to mark rodata read only and also to mark
init text no-execute. That involves walking the kernel page tables,
and clearing _PAGE_WRITE or _PAGE_EXEC respectively.

With radix we may use hugepages for the linear mapping, so the code in
radix__change_memory_range() uses eg. pmd_huge() to test if it has
found a huge mapping, and if so it stops the page table walk and
changes the PMD permissions.

However if the kernel is built without HUGETLBFS support, pmd_huge()
is just a #define that always returns 0. That causes the code in
radix__change_memory_range() to incorrectly interpret the PMD value as
a pointer to a PTE page rather than as a PTE at the PMD level.

We can see this using `dv` in xmon which also uses pmd_huge():

  0:mon&gt; dv c000000000000000
  pgd  @ 0xc000000001740000
  pgdp @ 0xc000000001740000 = 0x80000000ffffb009
  pudp @ 0xc0000000ffffb000 = 0x80000000ffffa009
  pmdp @ 0xc0000000ffffa000 = 0xc00000000000018f   &lt;- this is a PTE
  ptep @ 0xc000000000000100 = 0xa64bb17da64ab07d   &lt;- kernel text

The end result is we treat the value at 0xc000000000000100 as a PTE
and clear _PAGE_WRITE or _PAGE_EXEC, potentially corrupting the code
at that address.

In Joel's specific case we cleared the sign bit in the offset of the
branch, causing a backward branch to turn into a forward branch which
caused us to branch into a non-executable page. However the exact
nature of the crash depends on kernel version, compiler version, and
other factors.

We need to fix radix__change_memory_range() to not use accessors that
depend on HUGETLBFS, but we also have radix memory hotplug code that
uses pmd_huge() etc that will also need fixing. So for now just
disallow the broken combination of Radix with HUGETLBFS disabled.

The only defconfig we have that is affected is skiroot_defconfig, so
turn on HUGETLBFS there so that it still gets Radix.

This Kconfig option was removed during v4.19 development in commit
771c035372a0 ("deprecate the '__deprecated' attribute warnings entirely
and for good") so there's no point to keep it in defconfigs any longer.

FWIW defconfigs were patched with:

find . -name *_defconfig -exec sed -i '/CONFIG_ENABLE_WARN_DEPRECATED/d' {} \;
