commit 1a50d9403fb90cbe4dea0ec9fd0351d2ecbd8924 upstream.

When loading a DT overlay that creates a device, the device is not
probed, unless the DT overlay is unloaded and reloaded again.

After the recent refactoring to improve fw_devlink, it no longer depends
on the "compatible" property to identify which device tree nodes will
become struct devices.   fw_devlink now picks up dangling consumers
(consumers pointing to descendent device tree nodes of a device that
aren't converted to child devices) when a device is successfully bound
to a driver.  See __fw_devlink_pickup_dangling_consumers().

However, during DT overlay, a device's device tree node can have
sub-nodes added/removed without unbinding/rebinding the driver.  This
difference in behavior between the normal device instantiation and
probing flow vs. the DT overlay flow has a bunch of implications that
are pointed out elsewhere[1].  One of them is that the fw_devlink logic
to pick up dangling consumers is never exercised.

This patch solves the fw_devlink issue by marking all DT nodes added by
DT overlays with FWNODE_FLAG_NOT_DEVICE (fwnode that won't become
device), and by clearing the flag when a struct device is actually
created for the DT node.  This way, fw_devlink knows not to have
consumers waiting on these newly added DT nodes, and to propagate the
dependency to an ancestor DT node that has the corresponding struct
device.

Based on a patch by Saravana Kannan, which covered only platform and spi
devices.

commit 433279beba1d4872da10b7b60a539e0cb828b32b upstream.

Commit 3e453522593d ("md: Free resources in __md_stop") tried to fix
null-ptr-deference for 'active_io' by moving percpu_ref_exit() to
__md_stop(), however, the commit also moving 'writes_pending' to
__md_stop(), and this will cause mdadm tests broken:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000038

And the problem can be reporduced 100% by following test:

mdadm -CR /dev/md0 -l1 -n1 /dev/sda --force
echo inactive &gt; /sys/block/md0/md/array_state
echo read-auto  &gt; /sys/block/md0/md/array_state
echo inactive &gt; /sys/block/md0/md/array_state

Root cause:

// start raid
raid1_run
 mddev_init_writes_pending
  percpu_ref_init

// inactive raid
array_state_store
 do_md_stop
  __md_stop
   percpu_ref_exit

// start raid again
array_state_store
 do_md_run
  raid1_run
   mddev_init_writes_pending
    if (mddev-&gt;writes_pending.percpu_count_ptr)
    // won't reinit

// inactive raid again
...
percpu_ref_exit
-&gt; null-ptr-deference

Before the commit, 'writes_pending' is exited when mddev is freed, and
it's safe to restart raid because mddev_init_writes_pending() already make
sure that 'writes_pending' will only be initialized once.

Fix the prblem by moving 'writes_pending' back, it's a litter hard to find
the relationship between alloc memory and free memory, however, code
changes is much less and we lived with this for a long time already.

commit 3e453522593d74a87cf68a38e14aa36ebca1dbcd upstream.

If md_run() fails after -&gt;active_io is initialized, then percpu_ref_exit
is called in error path. However, later md_free_disk will call
percpu_ref_exit again which leads to a panic because of null pointer
dereference. It can also trigger this bug when resources are initialized
but are freed in error path, then will be freed again in md_free_disk.

For creating raid device, md raid calls do_md_run-&gt;md_run, dm raid calls
md_run. We alloc those memory in md_run. For stopping raid device, md raid
calls do_md_stop-&gt;__md_stop, dm raid calls md_stop-&gt;__md_stop. So we can
free those memory resources in __md_stop.

commit 360930985ec9f394c82ba0b235403b4a366d1560 upstream.

This reverts commit e101bf95ea87ccc03ac2f48dfc0757c6364ff3c7.

Caused a regression:

Samsung Odyssey Neo G9, running at 5120x1440@240/VRR, connected to Navi
21 via DisplayPort, blanks and the GPU hangs while starting the Steam
game Assetto Corsa Competizione (via Proton 7.0).

[ Upstream commit 0499942928341d572a42199580433c2b0725211e ]

Commit 679875d1d880 ("sc16is7xx: Separate GPIOs from modem control lines")
and commit 21144bab4f11 ("sc16is7xx: Handle modem status lines")
changed the function of the GPIOs pins to act as modem control
lines without any possibility of selecting GPIO function.

As a consequence, applications that depends on GPIO lines configured
by default as GPIO pins no longer work as expected.

Also, the change to select modem control lines function was done only
for channel A of dual UART variants (752/762). This was not documented
in the log message.

Allow to specify GPIO or modem control line function in the device
tree, and for each of the ports (A or B).

Do so by using the new device-tree property named
"nxp,modem-control-line-ports" (property added in separate patch).

When registering GPIO chip controller, mask-out GPIO pins declared as
modem control lines according to this new DT property.

[ Upstream commit dabc54a45711fe77674a6c0348231e00e66bd567 ]

Commit c8f71b49ee4d ("serial: sc16is7xx: setup GPIO controller later
in probe") moved GPIO setup code later in probe function. Doing so
also required to move ports cleanup code (out_ports label) after the
GPIO cleanup code.

After these moves, the out_thread label becomes misplaced and makes
part of the cleanup code illogical.

This patch remove the now obsolete out_thread label and make GPIO
setup code jump to out_ports label if it fails.

<title>USB: core: Fix oversight in SuperSpeed initialization</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f705617bab4766567874715eeed1b39dacb58671</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 59cf445754566984fd55af19ba7146c76e6627bc upstream.

Commit 85d07c556216 ("USB: core: Unite old scheme and new scheme
descriptor reads") altered the way USB devices are enumerated
following detection, and in the process it messed up the
initialization of SuperSpeed (or faster) devices:

[   31.650759] usb 2-1: new SuperSpeed Plus Gen 2x1 USB device number 2 using xhci_hcd
[   31.663107] usb 2-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
[   31.952697] usb 2-1: new SuperSpeed Plus Gen 2x1 USB device number 3 using xhci_hcd
[   31.965122] usb 2-1: device descriptor read/8, error -71
[   32.080991] usb usb2-port1: attempt power cycle
...

The problem was caused by the commit forgetting that in SuperSpeed or
faster devices, the device descriptor uses a logarithmic encoding of
the bMaxPacketSize0 value.  (For some reason I thought the 255 case in
the switch statement was meant for these devices, but it isn't -- it
was meant for Wireless USB and is no longer needed.)

We can fix the oversight by testing for buf-&gt;bMaxPacketSize0 = 9
(meaning 512, the actual maxpacket size for ep0 on all SuperSpeed
devices) and straightening out the logic that checks and adjusts our
initial guesses of the maxpacket value.

As analyzed by Khazhy Kumykov, the cause of this bug is a race between
read_descriptors() and hub_port_init(): The first routine uses a field
in udev-&gt;descriptor, not expecting it to change, while the second
overwrites it.

Prior to commit 45bf39f8df7f ("USB: core: Don't hold device lock while
reading the "descriptors" sysfs file") this race couldn't occur,
because the routines were mutually exclusive thanks to the device
locking.  Removing that locking from read_descriptors() exposed it to
the race.

The best way to fix the bug is to keep hub_port_init() from changing
udev-&gt;descriptor once udev has been initialized and registered.
Drivers expect the descriptors stored in the kernel to be immutable;
we should not undermine this expectation.  In fact, this change should
have been made long ago.

So now hub_port_init() will take an additional argument, specifying a
buffer in which to store the device descriptor it reads.  (If udev has
not yet been initialized, the buffer pointer will be NULL and then
hub_port_init() will store the device descriptor in udev as before.)
This eliminates the data race responsible for the out-of-bounds read.

The changes to hub_port_init() appear more extensive than they really
are, because of indentation changes resulting from an attempt to avoid
writing to other parts of the usb_device structure after it has been
initialized.  Similar changes should be made to the code that reads
the BOS descriptor, but that can be handled in a separate patch later
on.  This patch is sufficient to fix the bug found by syzbot.

commit de28e469da75359a2bb8cd8778b78aa64b1be1f4 upstream.

The usb_get_device_descriptor() routine reads the device descriptor
from the udev device and stores it directly in udev-&gt;descriptor.  This
interface is error prone, because the USB subsystem expects in-memory
copies of a device's descriptors to be immutable once the device has
been initialized.

The interface is changed so that the device descriptor is left in a
kmalloc-ed buffer, not copied into the usb_device structure.  A
pointer to the buffer is returned to the caller, who is then
responsible for kfree-ing it.  The corresponding changes needed in the
various callers are fairly small.

<title>USB: core: Unite old scheme and new scheme descriptor reads</title>

commit 85d07c55621676d47d873d2749b88f783cd4d5a1 upstream.

In preparation for reworking the usb_get_device_descriptor() routine,
it is desirable to unite the two different code paths responsible for
initially determining endpoint 0's maximum packet size in a newly
discovered USB device.  Making this determination presents a
chicken-and-egg sort of problem, in that the only way to learn the
maxpacket value is to get it from the device descriptor retrieved from
the device, but communicating with the device to retrieve a descriptor
requires us to know beforehand the ep0 maxpacket size.

In practice this problem is solved in two different ways, referred to
in hub.c as the "old scheme" and the "new scheme".  The old scheme
(which is the approach recommended by the USB-2 spec) involves asking
the device to send just the first eight bytes of its device
descriptor.  Such a transfer uses packets containing no more than
eight bytes each, and every USB device must have an ep0 maxpacket size
&gt;= 8, so this should succeed.  Since the bMaxPacketSize0 field of the
device descriptor lies within the first eight bytes, this is all we
need.

The new scheme is an imitation of the technique used in an early
Windows USB implementation, giving it the happy advantage of working
with a wide variety of devices (some of them at the time would not
work with the old scheme, although that's probably less true now).  It
involves making an initial guess of the ep0 maxpacket size, asking the
device to send up to 64 bytes worth of its device descriptor (which is
only 18 bytes long), and then resetting the device to clear any error
condition that might have resulted from the guess being wrong.  The
initial guess is determined by the connection speed; it should be
correct in all cases other than full speed, for which the allowed
values are 8, 16, 32, and 64 (in this case the initial guess is 64).

The reason for this patch is that the old- and new-scheme parts of
hub_port_init() use different code paths, one involving
usb_get_device_descriptor() and one not, for their initial reads of
the device descriptor.  Since these reads have essentially the same
purpose and are made under essentially the same circumstances, this is
illogical.  It makes more sense to have both of them use a common
subroutine.

This subroutine does basically what the new scheme's code did, because
that approach is more general than the one used by the old scheme.  It
only needs to know how many bytes to transfer and whether or not it is
being called for the first iteration of a retry loop (in case of
certain time-out errors).  There are two main differences from the
former code:

	We initialize the bDescriptorType field of the transfer buffer
	to 0 before performing the transfer, to avoid possibly
	accessing an uninitialized value afterward.

	We read the device descriptor into a temporary buffer rather
	than storing it directly into udev-&gt;descriptor, which the old
	scheme implementation used to do.

Since the whole point of this first read of the device descriptor is
to determine the bMaxPacketSize0 value, that is what the new routine
returns (or an error code).  The value is stored in a local variable
rather than in udev-&gt;descriptor.  As a side effect, this necessitates
moving a section of code that checks the bcdUSB field for SuperSpeed
devices until after the full device descriptor has been retrieved.
