commit 6987dc8a70976561d22450b5858fc9767788cc1c upstream.

Only read access is checked before this call.

Actually, at the moment this is not an issue, as every in-tree arch does
the same manual checks for VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE, relying on the MMU
to tell them apart, but this wasn't the case in the past and may happen
again on some odd arch in the future.

If anyone cares about 3.7 and earlier, this is a security hole (untested)
on real 80386 CPUs.

commit be40597a1bc173bf9dadccdf5388b956f620ae8f upstream.

UARTn_FRAME_PARITY_ODD is 0x0300
UARTn_FRAME_PARITY_EVEN is 0x0200
So if the UART is configured for EVEN parity, it would be reported as ODD.
Fix it by correctly testing if the 2 bits are set.

commit 3c9101766b502a0163d1d437fada5801cf616be2 upstream.

This patch fixes an issue that kernel panic happens when DMA is enabled
and we press enter key while the kernel booting on the serial console.

* An interrupt may occur after sci_request_irq().
* DMA transfer area is initialized by setup_timer() in sci_request_dma()
  and used in interrupt.

If an interrupt occurred between sci_request_irq() and setup_timer() in
sci_request_dma(), DMA transfer area has not been initialized yet.
So, this patch changes the order of sci_request_irq() and
sci_request_dma().

commit dd42bf1197144ede075a9d4793123f7689e164bc upstream.

Line discipline drivers may mistakenly misuse ldisc-related fields
when initializing. For example, a failure to initialize tty-&gt;receive_room
in the N_GIGASET_M101 line discipline was recently found and fixed [1].
Now, the N_X25 line discipline has been discovered accessing the previous
line discipline's already-freed private data [2].

Harden the ldisc interface against misuse by initializing revelant
tty fields before instancing the new line discipline.

commit 77e6fe7fd2b7cba0bf2f2dc8cde51d7b9a35bf74 upstream.

Make sure to actually suspend the device before returning after a failed
(or deferred) probe.

Note that autosuspend must be disabled before runtime pm is disabled in
order to balance the usage count due to a negative autosuspend delay as
well as to make the final put suspend the device synchronously.

commit 099bd73dc17ed77aa8c98323e043613b6e8f54fc upstream.

An unbalanced and misplaced synchronous put was used to suspend the
device on driver unbind, something which with a likewise misplaced
pm_runtime_disable leads to external aborts when an open port is being
removed.

[&lt;c046ef4c&gt;] (serial_omap_remove) from [&lt;c04845e8&gt;] (platform_drv_remove+0x34/0x4c)

Fix this up by resuming the device before deregistering the port and by
suspending and disabling runtime pm only after the port has been
removed.

Also make sure to disable autosuspend before disabling runtime pm so
that the usage count is balanced and device actually suspended before
returning.

Note that due to a negative autosuspend delay being set in probe, the
unbalanced put would actually suspend the device on first driver unbind,
while rebinding and again unbinding would result in a negative
power.usage_count.

commit ffb6e0c9a0572f8e5f8e9337a1b40ac2ec1493a1 upstream.

The platform_sysrq_reset_seq code was intended as a way for an embedded
platform to provide its own sysrq sequence at compile time. After over two
years, nobody has started using it in an upstream kernel, and the platforms
that were interested in it have moved on to devicetree, which can be used
to configure the sequence without requiring kernel changes. The method is
also incompatible with the way that most architectures build support for
multiple platforms into a single kernel.

Now the code is producing warnings when built with gcc-5.1:

drivers/tty/sysrq.c: In function 'sysrq_init':
drivers/tty/sysrq.c:959:33: warning: array subscript is above array bounds [-Warray-bounds]
   key = platform_sysrq_reset_seq[i];

We could fix this, but it seems unlikely that it will ever be used, so
let's just remove the code instead. We still have the option to pass the
sequence either in DT, using the kernel command line, or using the
/sys/module/sysrq/parameters/reset_seq file.

commit f3e2d56dce47dbd0bb3f69f84741b439542fef37 upstream.

Building an arm allmodconfig kernel triggers a lengthy but harmless
warning in the isicom driver:

drvers/tty/isicom.c: In function 'isicom_send_break':
uapi/linux/swab.h:13:15: warning: integer overflow in expression [-Woverflow]

      ^
drivers/tty/isicom.c:1058:2: note: in expansion of macro 'outw'
  outw((length &amp; 0xff00), base);
  ^

Apparently, the problem is related to the fact that the value 0xff00,
when used as a 16-bit number, is negative and passed into bitwise
operands of the generic byte swapping code.

Marking the input argument as unsigned in both technically correct
and avoids the warning.

<id>urn:sha1:c59bad247c60bb54c09c771ef06ba7a434bff7be</id>
<content type='text'>
commit a4f642a8a3c2838ad09fe8313d45db46600e1478 upstream.

The nozomi wireless data driver has its own helper function to
transfer data from a FIFO, doing an extra byte swap on big-endian
architectures, presumably to bring the data back into byte-serial
order after readw() or readl() perform their implicit byteswap.

This helper function is used in the receive_data() function to
first read the length into a 32-bit variable, which causes
a compile-time warning:

drivers/tty/nozomi.c: In function 'receive_data':
drivers/tty/nozomi.c:857:9: warning: 'size' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

The problem is that gcc is unsure whether the data was actually
read or not. We know that it is at this point, so we can replace
it with a single readl() to shut up that warning.

I am leaving the byteswap in there, to preserve the existing
behavior, even though this seems fishy: Reading the length of
the data into a cpu-endian variable should normally not use
a second byteswap on big-endian systems, unless the hardware
is aware of the CPU endianess.

There appears to be a lot more confusion about endianess in this
driver, so it probably has not worked on big-endian systems in
a long time, if ever, and I have no way to test it. It's well
possible that this driver has not been used by anyone in a while,
the last patch that looks like it was tested on the hardware is
from 2008.
