<title>p54: avoid accessing the data mapped to streaming DMA</title>

<id>urn:sha1:15cb0bd45fed8914f8e1d547121cb6852db6f7a4</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 478762855b5ae9f68fa6ead1edf7abada70fcd5f upstream.

In p54p_tx(), skb-&gt;data is mapped to streaming DMA on line 337:
  mapping = pci_map_single(..., skb-&gt;data, ...);

Then skb-&gt;data is accessed on line 349:
  desc-&gt;device_addr = ((struct p54_hdr *)skb-&gt;data)-&gt;req_id;

This access may cause data inconsistency between CPU cache and hardware.

To fix this problem, ((struct p54_hdr *)skb-&gt;data)-&gt;req_id is stored in
a local variable before DMA mapping, and then the driver accesses this
local variable instead of skb-&gt;data.

<title>mm, treewide: rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive()</title>

As said by Linus:

  A symmetric naming is only helpful if it implies symmetries in use.
  Otherwise it's actively misleading.

  In "kzalloc()", the z is meaningful and an important part of what the
  caller wants.

  In "kzfree()", the z is actively detrimental, because maybe in the
  future we really _might_ want to use that "memfill(0xdeadbeef)" or
  something. The "zero" part of the interface isn't even _relevant_.

The main reason that kzfree() exists is to clear sensitive information
that should not be leaked to other future users of the same memory
objects.

Rename kzfree() to kfree_sensitive() to follow the example of the recently
added kvfree_sensitive() and make the intention of the API more explicit.
In addition, memzero_explicit() is used to clear the memory to make sure
that it won't get optimized away by the compiler.

The renaming is done by using the command sequence:

  git grep -w --name-only kzfree |\
  xargs sed -i 's/kzfree/kfree_sensitive/'

followed by some editing of the kfree_sensitive() kerneldoc and adding
a kzfree backward compatibility macro in slab.h.

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fs/crypto/inline_crypt.c needs linux/slab.h]
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: fix fs/crypto/inline_crypt.c some more]

Drivers using legacy power management .suspen()/.resume() callbacks
have to manage PCI states and device's PM states themselves. They also
need to take care of standard configuration registers.

Switch to generic power management framework using a single
"struct dev_pm_ops" variable to take the unnecessary load from the driver.
This also avoids the need for the driver to directly call most of the PCI
helper functions and device power state control functions as through
the generic framework, PCI Core takes care of the necessary operations,
and drivers are required to do only device-specific jobs.

The wrappers in include/linux/pci-dma-compat.h should go away.

The patch has been generated with the coccinelle script below and has been
hand modified to replace GFP_ with a correct flag.
It has been compile tested.

When memory is allocated in 'islpci_alloc_memory()' (islpci_dev.c),
GFP_KERNEL can be used because it is only called from a probe function
and no spin_lock is taken in the between.

The call chain is:
   prism54_probe                   (probe function, in 'islpci_hotplug.c')
      --&gt; islpci_setup             (in 'islpci_dev.c')
         --&gt; islpci_alloc_memory   (in 'islpci_dev.c')

With the support of generic PM callbacks, drivers no longer need to use
legacy .suspend() and .resume() in which they had to maintain PCI states
changes and device's power state themselves. The required operations are
done by PCI core.

PCI drivers are not expected to invoke PCI helper functions like
pci_save/restore_state(), pci_enable/disable_device(),
pci_set_power_state(), etc. Their tasks are completed by PCI core itself.

Compile-tested only.
