[ Upstream commit 689de1d6ca95b3b5bd8ee446863bf81a4883ea25 ]

This is a fairly minimal fixup to the horribly bad behavior of hash_64()
with certain input patterns.

In particular, because the multiplicative value used for the 64-bit hash
was intentionally bit-sparse (so that the multiply could be done with
shifts and adds on architectures without hardware multipliers), some
bits did not get spread out very much.  In particular, certain fairly
common bit ranges in the input (roughly bits 12-20: commonly with the
most information in them when you hash things like byte offsets in files
or memory that have block factors that mean that the low bits are often
zero) would not necessarily show up much in the result.

There's a bigger patch-series brewing to fix up things more completely,
but this is the fairly minimal fix for the 64-bit hashing problem.  It
simply picks a much better constant multiplier, spreading the bits out a
lot better.

NOTE! For 32-bit architectures, the bad old hash_64() remains the same
for now, since 64-bit multiplies are expensive.  The bigger hashing
cleanup will replace the 32-bit case with something better.

The new constants were picked by George Spelvin who wrote that bigger
cleanup series.  I just picked out the constants and part of the comment
from that series.

<title>mm: check __PG_HWPOISON separately from PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_*</title>

[ Upstream commit f4c18e6f7b5bbb5b528b3334115806b0d76f50f9 ]

The race condition addressed in commit add05cecef80 ("mm: soft-offline:
don't free target page in successful page migration") was not closed
completely, because that can happen not only for soft-offline, but also
for hard-offline.  Consider that a slab page is about to be freed into
buddy pool, and then an uncorrected memory error hits the page just
after entering __free_one_page(), then VM_BUG_ON_PAGE(page-&gt;flags &amp;
PAGE_FLAGS_CHECK_AT_PREP) is triggered, despite the fact that it's not
necessary because the data on the affected page is not consumed.

To solve it, this patch drops __PG_HWPOISON from page flag checks at
allocation/free time.  I think it's justified because __PG_HWPOISON
flags is defined to prevent the page from being reused, and setting it
outside the page's alloc-free cycle is a designed behavior (not a bug.)

For recent months, I was annoyed about BUG_ON when soft-offlined page
remains on lru cache list for a while, which is avoided by calling
put_page() instead of putback_lru_page() in page migration's success
path.  This means that this patch reverts a major change from commit
add05cecef80 about the new refcounting rule of soft-offlined pages, so
"reuse window" revives.  This will be closed by a subsequent patch.

<title>regulator: s2mps11: Fix invalid selector mask and voltages for buck9</title>

[ Upstream commit 3b672623079bb3e5685b8549e514f2dfaa564406 ]

The buck9 regulator of S2MPS11 PMIC had incorrect vsel_mask (0xff
instead of 0x1f) thus reading entire register as buck9's voltage. This
effectively caused regulator core to interpret values as higher voltages
than they were and then to set real voltage much lower than intended.

The buck9 provides power to other regulators, including LDO13
and LDO19 which supply the MMC2 (SD card). On Odroid XU3/XU4 the lower
voltage caused SD card detection errors on Odroid XU3/XU4:
	mmc1: card never left busy state
	mmc1: error -110 whilst initialising SD card

During driver probe the regulator core was checking whether initial
voltage matches the constraints. With incorrect vsel_mask of 0xff and
default value of 0x50, the core interpreted this as 5 V which is outside
of constraints (3-3.775 V). Then the regulator core was adjusting the
voltage to match the constraints. With incorrect vsel_mask this new
voltage mapped to a vere low voltage in the driver.

[ Upstream commit 2531c8cf56a640cd7d17057df8484e570716a450 ]

s390 has a constant hugepage size, by setting HPAGE_SHIFT we also change
e.g. the pageblock_order, which should be independent in respect to
hugepage support.

With this patch every architecture is free to define how to check
for hugepage support.

[ Upstream commit 95272c29378ee7dc15f43fa2758cb28a5913a06d ]

-ftracer can duplicate asm blocks causing compilation to fail in
noclone functions.  For example, KVM declares a global variable
in an asm like

    asm("2: ... \n
         .pushsection data \n
         .global vmx_return \n
         vmx_return: .long 2b");

and -ftracer causes a double declaration.

As gcc major version numbers are going to advance rather rapidly in the
future, there's no real value in separate files for each compiler
version.

Deduplicate some of the macros #defined in each file too.

[ Upstream commit 378c6520e7d29280f400ef2ceaf155c86f05a71a ]

This commit fixes the following security hole affecting systems where
all of the following conditions are fulfilled:

 - The fs.suid_dumpable sysctl is set to 2.
 - The kernel.core_pattern sysctl's value starts with "/". (Systems
   where kernel.core_pattern starts with "|/" are not affected.)
 - Unprivileged user namespace creation is permitted. (This is
   true on Linux &gt;=3.8, but some distributions disallow it by
   default using a distro patch.)

Under these conditions, if a program executes under secure exec rules,
causing it to run with the SUID_DUMP_ROOT flag, then unshares its user
namespace, changes its root directory and crashes, the coredump will be
written using fsuid=0 and a path derived from kernel.core_pattern - but
this path is interpreted relative to the root directory of the process,
allowing the attacker to control where a coredump will be written with
root privileges.

To fix the security issue, always interpret core_pattern for dumps that
are written under SUID_DUMP_ROOT relative to the root directory of init.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 3debb0a9ddb16526de8b456491b7db60114f7b5e ]

The trace_printk() code will allocate extra buffers if the compile detects
that a trace_printk() is used. To do this, the format of the trace_printk()
is saved to the __trace_printk_fmt section, and if that section is bigger
than zero, the buffers are allocated (along with a message that this has
happened).

If trace_printk() uses a format that is not a constant, and thus something
not guaranteed to be around when the print happens, the compiler optimizes
the fmt out, as it is not used, and the __trace_printk_fmt section is not
filled. This means the kernel will not allocate the special buffers needed
for the trace_printk() and the trace_printk() will not write anything to the
tracing buffer.

Adding a "__used" to the variable in the __trace_printk_fmt section will
keep it around, even though it is set to NULL. This will keep the string
from being printed in the debugfs/tracing/printk_formats section as it is
not needed.
