The hrtimer_start[_range_ns]() functions start a timer reliably on this CPU only
when HRTIMER_MODE_PINNED is set.
Furthermore the HRTIMER_MODE_PINNED mode is not considered when a hrtimer is initialized.

schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock() uses an 'int clock' parameter for the
clock ID, instead of the customary predefined "clockid_t" type.
In hrtimer coding style the canonical variable name for the clock ID is
'clock_id', therefore change the name of the parameter here as well
to make it all consistent.
While at it, clean up the description for the 'clock_id' and 'mode'
function parameters. The clock modes and the clock IDs are not
restricted as the comment suggests.
Fix the mode description as well for the callers of schedule_hrtimeout_range_clock().
No functional changes intended.

The protection of a hrtimer which runs its callback against migration to a
different CPU has nothing to do with hard interrupt context.
The protection against migration of a hrtimer running the expiry callback
is the pointer in the cpu_base which holds a pointer to the currently
running timer. This pointer is evaluated in the code which potentially
switches the timer base and makes sure it's kept on the CPU on which the
callback is running.

The hrtimer_cpu_base::migration_enable and ::nohz_active fields
were originally introduced to avoid accessing global variables
for these decisions.
Still that results in a (cache hot) load and conditional branch,
which can be avoided by using static keys.
Implement it with static keys and optimize for the most critical
case of high performance networking which tends to disable the
timer migration functionality.
No change in functionality.

Because the return value of cpu_timer_sample_group() is not checked,
compilers and static checkers can legitimately warn about a potential use
of the uninitialized variable 'now'. This is not a runtime issue as all call
sites hand in valid clock ids.
Also cpu_timer_sample_group() is invoked unconditionally even when the
result is not used because *oldval is NULL.
Make the invocation conditional and check the return value.

As we have a lot of timers on this platform, we can have potentially all the
timers enabled in the DT, so we don't want to start the timer for every probe
otherwise they will be running for nothing as only one will be used.
Start the timer only when setting the mode or when the clocksource is
enabled.

The stm32 timer block is able to have a counter and a comparator.
Instead of using the auto-reload register for periodic events, we switch
to oneshot mode by using the comparator register.
The timer is able to generate an interrupt when the counter overflows but
we don't want that as this counter will be use as a clocksource in the next
patches. So it is disabled by the UDIS bit of the control register.

The prescaler value is arbitrarily set to 1024 without any regard to the
timer frequency. For 32-bit timers, there is no need to set a prescaler
value as they wrap in an acceptable interval and give the opportunity to
have precise timers on this platform. However, for 16-bit timers a prescaler
value is needed if we don't want to wrap too often per second which is
inefficient and adds more and more error margin. With a targeted clock
of 10MHz, the 16 bits are precise enough whatever the timer frequency is
as we will compute the prescaler.

The current code hides a couple of bugs:
- The global variable 'clock_event_ddata' is overwritten each time the
init function is invoked.
This is fixed with a kmemdup() instead of assigning the global variable. That
prevents a memory corruption when several timers are defined in the DT.
- The clockevent's event_handler is NULL if the time framework does
not select the clockevent when registering it, this is fine but the init
code generates in any case an interrupt leading to dereference this
NULL pointer.
The stm32 timer works with shadow registers, a mechanism to cache the
registers. When a change is done in one buffered register, we need to
artificially generate an event to force the timer to copy the content
of the register to the shadowed register.
The auto-reload register (ARR) is one of the shadowed register as well as
the prescaler register (PSC), so in order to force the copy, we issue an
event which in turn leads to an interrupt and the NULL dereference.
This is fixed by inverting two lines where we clear the status register
before enabling the update event interrupt.
As this kernel crash is resulting from the combination of these two bugs,
the fixes are grouped into a single patch.

"Another small stash of fixes for fallout from the PTI work:
- Fix the modules vs. KASAN breakage which was caused by making
MODULES_END depend of the fixmap size. That was done when the cpu
entry area moved into the fixmap, but now that we have a separate
map space for that this is causing more issues than it solves.
- Use the proper cache flush methods for the debugstore buffers as
they are mapped/unmapped during runtime and not statically mapped
at boot time like the rest of the cpu entry area.
- Make the map layout of the cpu_entry_area consistent for 4 and 5
level paging and fix the KASLR vaddr_end wreckage.
- Use PER_CPU_EXPORT for per cpu variable and while at it unbreak
nvidia gfx drivers by dropping the GPL export. The subject line of
the commit tells it the other way around, but I noticed that too
late.
- Fix the ASM alternative macros so they can be used in the middle of
an inline asm block.
- Rename the BUG_CPU_INSECURE flag to BUG_CPU_MELTDOWN so the attack
vector is properly identified. The Spectre mitigations will come
with their own bug bits later"

'Commit cc27b735ad ("PCI/portdrv: Turn off PCIe services during

Issue shows up as a warning during shutdown as follows:
remove_proc_entry: removing non-empty directory 'irq/17', leaking at least
'rtsx_pci'
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1578 at fs/proc/generic.c:572

Even though rtsx_pci driver implements a shutdown callback, it is not
releasing the interrupt that it registered during probe. This is causing
the ACPI layer to complain that the shared IRQ is in use while freeing
IRQ.
This code releases the IRQ to prevent resource leak and eliminate the
warning.

With the recent addition of hashed kernel pointers, places which need to
produce useful debug output have to specify %px, not %p. This patch
fixes all the VM debug to use %px. This is appropriate because it's
debug output that the user should never be able to trigger, and kernel
developers need to see the actual pointers.

As Tsukada explains, the time_is_before_jiffies(acct->needcheck) check
is very wrong, we need time_is_after_jiffies() to make sys_acct() work.
Ignoring the overflows, the code should "goto out" if needcheck >
jiffies, while currently it checks "needcheck < jiffies" and thus in the
likely case check_free_space() does nothing until jiffies overflow.
In particular this means that sys_acct() is simply broken, acct_on()
sets acct->needcheck = jiffies and expects that check_free_space()
should set acct->active = 1 after the free-space check, but this won't
happen if jiffies increments in between.
This was broken by commit 32dc730860 ("get rid of timer in
kern/acct.c") in 2011, then another (correct) commit 795a2f22a8
("acct() should honour the limits from the very beginning") made the
problem more visible.

This is introduced by commit a4a3ede213 ("mm: zero reserved and
unavailable struct pages").
The reason is some efi reserved boot ranges is not reported in E820 ram.
In my case it is a bgrt buffer:
efi: mem00: [Boot Data |RUN| | | | | | | |WB|WT|WC|UC] range=[0x00000000d2c41000-0x00000000d2c85fff] (0MB)
Use "add_efi_memmap" can workaround the problem with another fix:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171130052327.GA3500@dhcp-128-65.nay.redhat.com
In zero_resv_unavail it would be better to check pfn_valid first before
zero the page struct. This fixes the problem and potential other
similar problems. Also as Pavel Tatashin suggested checks pfn_valid at
the beginning of the section.
The range is backed by real memory. The memory range is efi "Boot
Service Data", that means after ExitBootServices() these ranges can be
used as system ram. But some of them need to be reserved, for example
the bgrt image address in an acpi table, if the image memory is freed
then kexec reboot will fail because kexec inherit same acpi table to
initialize the driver.
