This is a follow-up to commit 559b46990e ("gpio: pca953x: fix an
incorrect lockdep warning"). The reason for calling
lockdep_set_subclass() in pca953x_probe() is not explained in
the code.
Add a comment describing the problem, partial solution and required
future extensions.

DT allows holes or empty phandles for references. This is used for example
in SPI subsystem where some chip selects are native and others are regular
GPIOs. In ACPI _DSD we currently do not support this but instead the
preceding reference consumes all following integer arguments.
For example we would like to support something like the below ASL fragment
for SPI:
Package () {
"cs-gpios",
Package () {
^GPIO, 19, 0, 0, // GPIO CS0
0, // Native CS
^GPIO, 20, 0, 0, // GPIO CS1
}
}
The zero in the middle means "no entry" or NULL reference. To support this
we change acpi_data_get_property_reference() to take firmware node and
num_args as argument and rename it to __acpi_node_get_property_reference().
The function returns -ENOENT if the given index resolves to "no entry"
reference and -ENODATA when there are no more entries in the property.
We then add static inline wrapper acpi_node_get_property_reference() that
passes MAX_ACPI_REFERENCE_ARGS as num_args to support the existing
behaviour which some drivers have been relying on.

* PMEM sub-division support: Allow a single PMEM region to be divided
into multiple namespaces. Originally, ~2 years ago, it was thought that
partitions of a /dev/pmemX block device could handle sub-allocations of
persistent memory for different use cases. With the decision to not
support DAX mappings of raw block-devices, and the genesis of
device-dax, the need for having multiple pmem-namespace per region has
grown.
* Device-DAX unified inode: In support of dynamic-resizing of a
device-dax instance the kernel arranges for all mappings of a
device-dax node to share the same inode. This allows unmap / truncate /
invalidation events to affect all instances of the device similar to the
behavior of mmap on block devices.
* Hardware error scrubbing reworks: The original address-range-scrub +
badblocks tracking solution allowed clearing entries at the individual
namespace level, but it failed to clear the internal list of media
errors maintained at the bus level. The result was that the next scrub
or namespace disable/re-enable event would restore the cleared
badblocks, but now that is fixed. The v4.8 kernel introduced an
auto-scrub-on-machine-check behavior to repopulate the badblocks list.
Now, in v4.9, the auto-scrub behavior can be disabled and simply arrange
for the error reported in the machine-check to be added to the list.
* DIMM health-event notification support: ACPI 6.1 defines a
notification event code that can be send to ACPI NVDIMM devices. A
poll(2) capable file descriptor for these events can be obtained from
the nmemX/nfit/flags sysfs-attribute of a libnvdimm memory device.
* Miscellaneous fixes: NVDIMM-N probe error, device-dax build error, and
a change to dedup the flush hint list to not flush the memory controller
more than necessary.

Pull libnvdimm updates from Dan Williams:
"Aside from the recently added pmem sub-division support these have
been in -next for several releases with no reported issues. The sub-
division support was included in next-20161010 with no reported
issues. It passes all unit tests including new tests for all the new
functionality below.
Summary:
- PMEM sub-division support: Allow a single PMEM region to be divided
into multiple namespaces. Originally, ~2 years ago, it was thought

Only interfaces used from outside the driver, e.g., those called by the

Internal interfaces can accept pointers to the device-specific struct,

The struct pcie_host_ops.readl_rc() and .writel_rc() function pointers
allow a driver to override the default DesignWare register accessors.
Make the signature of the override functions the same as the default
accessors. This makes the default dw_pcie_readl_rc() and the corresponding
override more structurally similar: both will compute the final register
address with "pp->dbi_base + reg". Previously dw_pcie_readl_rc() computed
the address and passed it to the override.

The native ABI vDSO linker script vdso.lds is built by preprocessing
vdso.lds.S, with the native -mabi flag passed in to get the correct ABI
definitions. Unfortunately however certain toolchains choke on -mabi=64
without a corresponding compatible -march flag, for example:
cc1: error: ‘-march=mips32r2’ is not compatible with the selected ABI
scripts/Makefile.build:338: recipe for target 'arch/mips/vdso/vdso.lds' failed
Fix this by including ccflags-vdso in the KBUILD_CPPFLAGS for vdso.lds,
which includes the appropriate -march flag.

power4_fixup_nap is called from the "common" handlers, not the virt/real

Most of the time, the bug is surfacing in a caller up in the stack from
__pSeries_lpar_hugepage_invalidate() which is quite confusing.
This bug is pending since v3.11 but was hidden if a caller of the
caller of __pSeries_lpar_hugepage_invalidate() has pushed the corruped
register (r18 in this case) in the stack and is not using it until
restoring it. GCC 6.2.0 seems to raise it more frequently.
This commit also change the definition of the parameter buffer in
pSeries_lpar_flush_hash_range() to rely on the global define
PLPAR_HCALL9_BUFSIZE (no functional change here).

The step 2 for the rewrite select_idle_siblings():
| Step 2) tracks the average cost of the scan and compares this to the
| average idle time guestimate for the CPU doing the wakeup.
If the CPU which doing the wakeup is the going hot-unplug CPU, then NULL
sched domain will be dereferenced to acquire the average cost of the scan.
This patch fix it by failing the search of an idle CPU in the LLC process
if this sched domain is NULL.

Arnd reported that enabling CONFIG_MATOM results in a bunch of objtool
false positive frame pointer warnings:

kernel/signal.o: warning: objtool: __dequeue_signal()+0xd8: call without frame pointer save/setup
...
objtool gets confused by the fact that the '-mtune=atom' GCC option
sometimes uses 'lea (%rsp),%rbp' instead of 'mov %rsp,%rbp'. The
instructions are effectively the same, but objtool doesn't know about
the 'lea' variant.
Fix the false warnings by adding support for 'lea (%rsp),%rbp' in the
objtool decoder.

The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and
variables. If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for
gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then
the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must
be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields.
These specific functions have been selected because they are init
functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable
times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of
latent entropy.

This adds a new gcc plugin named "latent_entropy". It is designed to
extract as much possible uncertainty from a running system at boot time as
possible, hoping to capitalize on any possible variation in CPU operation
(due to runtime data differences, hardware differences, SMP ordering,
thermal timing variation, cache behavior, etc).
At the very least, this plugin is a much more comprehensive example for
how to manipulate kernel code using the gcc plugin internals.
The need for very-early boot entropy tends to be very architecture or
system design specific, so this plugin is more suited for those sorts
of special cases. The existing kernel RNG already attempts to extract
entropy from reliable runtime variation, but this plugin takes the idea to
a logical extreme by permuting a global variable based on any variation
in code execution (e.g. a different value (and permutation function)
is used to permute the global based on loop count, case statement,
if/then/else branching, etc).
To do this, the plugin starts by inserting a local variable in every
marked function. The plugin then adds logic so that the value of this
variable is modified by randomly chosen operations (add, xor and rol) and
random values (gcc generates separate static values for each location at
compile time and also injects the stack pointer at runtime). The resulting
value depends on the control flow path (e.g., loops and branches taken).
Before the function returns, the plugin mixes this local variable into
the latent_entropy global variable. The value of this global variable
is added to the kernel entropy pool in do_one_initcall() and _do_fork(),
though it does not credit any bytes of entropy to the pool; the contents
of the global are just used to mix the pool.
Additionally, the plugin can pre-initialize arrays with build-time
random contents, so that two different kernel builds running on identical
hardware will not have the same starting values.

code reviews/updates and streamline the maintainership structure
supporting the arch specific code, a new arm64 directory was created in
/drivers/acpi, to contain ACPI code that is specific to ARM64
architecture.
Add the ARM64-specific ACPI maintainers entry in MAINTAINERS for
the newly created subdirectory and respective code content.
Lorenzo Pieralisi will be in charge of submitting and managing
the pull requests on behalf of all maintainers listed.

Use a local "struct device *dev" for brevity and consistency with other
drivers. No functional change intended.
