Pull x86 fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A few fixes for x86:

   - Fix a boot regression caused by the recent bootparam sanitizing
     change, which escaped the attention of all people who reviewed that
     code.

   - Address a boot problem on machines with broken E820 tables caused
     by an underflow which ended up placing the trampoline start at
     physical address 0.

   - Handle machines which do not advertise a legacy timer of any form,
     but need calibration of the local APIC timer gracefully by making
     the calibration routine independent from the tick interrupt. Marked
     for stable as well as there seems to be quite some new laptops
     rolled out which expose this.

   - Clear the RDRAND CPUID bit on AMD family 15h and 16h CPUs which are
     affected by broken firmware which does not initialize RDRAND
     correctly after resume. Add a command line parameter to override
     this for machine which either do not use suspend/resume or have a
     fixed BIOS. Unfortunately there is no way to detect this on boot,
     so the only safe decision is to turn it off by default.

   - Prevent RFLAGS from being clobbers in CALL_NOSPEC on 32bit which
     caused fast KVM instruction emulation to break.

   - Explain the Intel CPU model naming convention so that the repeating
     discussions come to an end"

c49a0a8013 x86/CPU/AMD: Clear RDRAND CPUID bit on AMD family 15h/16h
There have been reports of RDRAND issues after resuming from suspend on
some AMD family 15h and family 16h systems. This issue stems from a BIOS
not performing the proper steps during resume to ensure RDRAND continues
to function properly.

RDRAND support is indicated by CPUID Fn00000001_ECX[30]. This bit can be
reset by clearing MSR C001_1004[62]. Any software that checks for RDRAND
support using CPUID, including the kernel, will believe that RDRAND is
not supported.

Update the CPU initialization to clear the RDRAND CPUID bit for any family
15h and 16h processor that supports RDRAND. If it is known that the family
15h or family 16h system does not have an RDRAND resume issue or that the
system will not be placed in suspend, the "rdrand=force" kernel parameter
can be used to stop the clearing of the RDRAND CPUID bit.

Additionally, update the suspend and resume path to save and restore the
MSR C001_1004 value to ensure that the RDRAND CPUID setting remains in
place after resuming from suspend.

Note, that clearing the RDRAND CPUID bit does not prevent a processor
that normally supports the RDRAND instruction from executing it. So any
code that determined the support based on family and model won't #UD.

3097834637 x86: Add "nopv" parameter to disable PV extensions
In virtualization environment, PV extensions (drivers, interrupts,
timers, etc) are enabled in the majority of use cases which is the
best option.

However, in some cases (kexec not fully working, benchmarking)
we want to disable PV extensions. We have "xen_nopv" for that purpose
but only for XEN. For a consistent admin experience a common command
line parameter "nopv" set across all PV guest implementations is a
better choice.

There are guest types which just won't work without PV extensions,
like Xen PV, Xen PVH and jailhouse. add a "ignore_nopv" member to
struct hypervisor_x86 set to true for those guest types and call
the detect functions only if nopv is false or ignore_nopv is true.

c6c405336b vmcore: add a kernel parameter novmcoredd
Since commit 2724273e8f ("vmcore: add API to collect hardware dump in
second kernel"), drivers are allowed to add device related dump data to
vmcore as they want by using the device dump API.  This has a potential
issue, the data is stored in memory, drivers may append too much data
and use too much memory.  The vmcore is typically used in a kdump kernel
which runs in a pre-reserved small chunk of memory.  So as a result it
will make kdump unusable at all due to OOM issues.

So introduce new 'novmcoredd' command line option.  User can disable
device dump to reduce memory usage.  This is helpful if device dump is
using too much memory, disabling device dump could make sure a regular
vmcore without device dump data is still available.

192f0f8e9d powerpc updates for 5.3
Notable changes:
 
  - Removal of the NPU DMA code, used by the out-of-tree Nvidia driver, as well
    as some other functions only used by drivers that haven't (yet?) made it
    upstream.
 
  - A fix for a bug in our handling of hardware watchpoints (eg. perf record -e
    mem: ...) which could lead to register corruption and kernel crashes.
 
  - Enable HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which allows us to use large pages for vmalloc
    when using the Radix MMU.
 
  - A large but incremental rewrite of our exception handling code to use gas
    macros rather than multiple levels of nested CPP macros.
 
 And the usual small fixes, cleanups and improvements.

Merge tag 'powerpc-5.3-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/powerpc/linux

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Notable changes:

   - Removal of the NPU DMA code, used by the out-of-tree Nvidia driver,
     as well as some other functions only used by drivers that haven't
     (yet?) made it upstream.

   - A fix for a bug in our handling of hardware watchpoints (eg. perf
     record -e mem: ...) which could lead to register corruption and
     kernel crashes.

   - Enable HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP, which allows us to use large pages for
     vmalloc when using the Radix MMU.

   - A large but incremental rewrite of our exception handling code to
     use gas macros rather than multiple levels of nested CPP macros.

  And the usual small fixes, cleanups and improvements.

6471384af2 mm: security: introduce init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 boot options
Patch series "add init_on_alloc/init_on_free boot options", v10.

Provide init_on_alloc and init_on_free boot options.

These are aimed at preventing possible information leaks and making the
control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic.

Enabling either of the options guarantees that the memory returned by the
page allocator and SL[AU]B is initialized with zeroes.  SLOB allocator
isn't supported at the moment, as its emulation of kmem caches complicates
handling of SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU caches correctly.

Enabling init_on_free also guarantees that pages and heap objects are
initialized right after they're freed, so it won't be possible to access
stale data by using a dangling pointer.

As suggested by Michal Hocko, right now we don't let the heap users to
disable initialization for certain allocations.  There's not enough
evidence that doing so can speed up real-life cases, and introducing ways
to opt-out may result in things going out of control.

This patch (of 2):

The new options are needed to prevent possible information leaks and make
control-flow bugs that depend on uninitialized values more deterministic.

This is expected to be on-by-default on Android and Chrome OS.  And it
gives the opportunity for anyone else to use it under distros too via the
boot args.  (The init_on_free feature is regularly requested by folks
where memory forensics is included in their threat models.)

init_on_alloc=1 makes the kernel initialize newly allocated pages and heap
objects with zeroes.  Initialization is done at allocation time at the
places where checks for __GFP_ZERO are performed.

init_on_free=1 makes the kernel initialize freed pages and heap objects
with zeroes upon their deletion.  This helps to ensure sensitive data
doesn't leak via use-after-free accesses.

Both init_on_alloc=1 and init_on_free=1 guarantee that the allocator
returns zeroed memory.  The two exceptions are slab caches with
constructors and SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU flag.  Those are never
zero-initialized to preserve their semantics.

Both init_on_alloc and init_on_free default to zero, but those defaults
can be overridden with CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON and
CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON.

If either SLUB poisoning or page poisoning is enabled, those options take
precedence over init_on_alloc and init_on_free: initialization is only
applied to unpoisoned allocations.

Slowdown for the new features compared to init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0:

hackbench, init_on_free=1:  +7.62% sys time (st.err 0.74%)
hackbench, init_on_alloc=1: +7.75% sys time (st.err 2.14%)

Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1:  +8.38% wall time (st.err 0.39%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_free=1:  +24.42% sys time (st.err 0.52%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: -0.13% wall time (st.err 0.42%)
Linux build with -j12, init_on_alloc=1: +0.57% sys time (st.err 0.40%)

The slowdown for init_on_free=0, init_on_alloc=0 compared to the baseline
is within the standard error.

The new features are also going to pave the way for hardware memory
tagging (e.g.  arm64's MTE), which will require both on_alloc and on_free
hooks to set the tags for heap objects.  With MTE, tagging will have the
same cost as memory initialization.

Although init_on_free is rather costly, there are paranoid use-cases where
in-memory data lifetime is desired to be minimized.  There are various
arguments for/against the realism of the associated threat models, but
given that we'll need the infrastructure for MTE anyway, and there are
people who want wipe-on-free behavior no matter what the performance cost,
it seems reasonable to include it in this series.

1e577f970f mm, memcg: introduce memory.events.local
The memory controller in cgroup v2 exposes memory.events file for each
memcg which shows the number of times events like low, high, max, oom
and oom_kill have happened for the whole tree rooted at that memcg.
Users can also poll or register notification to monitor the changes in
that file.  Any event at any level of the tree rooted at memcg will
notify all the listeners along the path till root_mem_cgroup.  There are
existing users which depend on this behavior.

However there are users which are only interested in the events
happening at a specific level of the memcg tree and not in the events in
the underlying tree rooted at that memcg.  One such use-case is a
centralized resource monitor which can dynamically adjust the limits of
the jobs running on a system.  The jobs can create their sub-hierarchy
for their own sub-tasks.  The centralized monitor is only interested in
the events at the top level memcgs of the jobs as it can then act and
adjust the limits of the jobs.  Using the current memory.events for such
centralized monitor is very inconvenient.  The monitor will keep
receiving events which it is not interested and to find if the received
event is interesting, it has to read memory.event files of the next
level and compare it with the top level one.  So, let's introduce
memory.events.local to the memcg which shows and notify for the events
at the memcg level.

Now, does memory.stat and memory.pressure need their local versions.  IMHO
no due to the no internal process contraint of the cgroup v2.  The
memory.stat file of the top level memcg of a job shows the stats and
vmevents of the whole tree.  The local stats or vmevents of the top level
memcg will only change if there is a process running in that memcg but v2
does not allow that.  Similarly for memory.pressure there will not be any
process in the internal nodes and thus no chance of local pressure.

3972f6bb1c mm, debug_pagealloc: use a page type instead of page_ext flag
When debug_pagealloc is enabled, we currently allocate the page_ext
array to mark guard pages with the PAGE_EXT_DEBUG_GUARD flag.  Now that
we have the page_type field in struct page, we can use that instead, as
guard pages are neither PageSlab nor mapped to userspace.  This reduces
memory overhead when debug_pagealloc is enabled and there are no other
features requiring the page_ext array.

d72619706a TTY / Serial driver updates for 5.3-rc1
Here is the "large" TTY and Serial driver update for 5.3-rc1.
 
 It's in the negative number of lines overall as we removed an obsolete
 serial driver that was causing problems for some people who were trying
 to clean up some apis (the mpsc.c driver, which only worked for some
 pre-production hardware that no one has anymore.)
 
 Other than that, lots of tiny changes, cleaning up small things along
 with some platform-specific serial driver updates.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while now with no reported
 issues.
