[ Upstream commit acaab7335bd6f0c0b54ce3a00bd7f18222ce0f5f ]

The zlib inflate code has an old micro-optimization based on the
assumption that for pre-increment memory accesses, the compiler will
generate code that fits better into the processor's pipeline than what
would be generated for post-increment memory accesses.

This optimization was already removed in upstream zlib in 2016:
https://github.com/madler/zlib/commit/9aaec95e8211

This optimization causes UB according to C99, which says in section 6.5.6
"Additive operators": "If both the pointer operand and the result point to
elements of the same array object, or one past the last element of the
array object, the evaluation shall not produce an overflow; otherwise, the
behavior is undefined".

This UB is not only a theoretical concern, but can also cause trouble for
future work on compiler-based sanitizers.

According to the zlib commit, this optimization also is not optimal
anymore with modern compilers.

Replace uses of OFF, PUP and UP_UNALIGNED with their definitions in the
POSTINC case, and remove the macro definitions, just like in the upstream
patch.

[ Upstream commit 18f1ca46858eac22437819937ae44aa9a8f9f2fa ]

When building 64r6_defconfig with CONFIG_MIPS32_O32 disabled and
CONFIG_CRYPTO_RSA enabled:

lib/mpi/generic_mpih-mul1.c:37:24: error: invalid use of a cast in a

                         ~~~~~~~~~~^~~
2 errors generated.

This special case for umul_ppmm for MIPS64r6 was added in
commit bbc25bee37d2b ("lib/mpi: Fix umul_ppmm() for MIPS64r6"), due to
GCC being inefficient and emitting a __multi3 intrinsic.

There is no such issue with clang; with this patch applied, I can build
this configuration without any problems and there are no link errors
like mentioned in the commit above (which I can still reproduce with
GCC 9.3.0 when that commit is reverted). Only use this definition when
GCC is being used.

This really should have been caught by commit b0c091ae04f67 ("lib/mpi:
Eliminate unused umul_ppmm definitions for MIPS") when I was messing
around in this area but I was not testing 64-bit MIPS at the time.

More users for for_each_cpu_wrap() have appeared. Promote the construct
to generic cpumask interface.

The implementation is slightly modified to reduce arguments.

[ Upstream commit 4e456fee215677584cafa7f67298a76917e89c64 ]

Clang warns:

  ../lib/scatterlist.c:314:5: warning: misleading indentation; statement
  is not part of the previous 'if' [-Wmisleading-indentation]
                          return -ENOMEM;

                          ^
  1 warning generated.

This warning occurs because there is a space before the tab on this
line.  Remove it so that the indentation is consistent with the Linux
kernel coding style and clang no longer warns.

In case memory resources for _ptr2_ were allocated, release them before
return.

Notice that in case _ptr1_ happens to be NULL, krealloc() behaves
exactly like kmalloc().

commit c42b65e363ce97a828f81b59033c3558f8fa7f70 upstream.

A lot of code become ugly because of open coding allocations for bitmaps.

Introduce three helpers to allow users be more clear of intention
and keep their code neat.

Note, due to multiple circular dependencies we may not provide
the helpers as inliners. For now we keep them exported and, perhaps,
at some point in the future we will sort out header inclusion and
inheritance.

[ Upstream commit ab9bb6318b0967671e0c9b6537c1537d51ca4f45 ]

Commit dfe2a77fd243 ("kfifo: fix kfifo_alloc() and kfifo_init()") made
the kfifo code round the number of elements up.  That was good for
__kfifo_alloc(), but it's actually wrong for __kfifo_init().

The difference? __kfifo_alloc() will allocate the rounded-up number of
elements, but __kfifo_init() uses an allocation done by the caller.  We
can't just say "use more elements than the caller allocated", and have
to round down.

The good news? All the normal cases will be using power-of-two arrays
anyway, and most users of kfifo's don't use kfifo_init() at all, but one
of the helper macros to declare a KFIFO that enforce the proper
power-of-two behavior.  But it looks like at least ibmvscsis might be
affected.

The bad news? Will Deacon refers to an old thread and points points out
that the memory ordering in kfifo's is questionable.  See

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20181211034032.32338-1-yuleixzhang@tencent.com/

for more.
