Pull char/misc fixes/removals from Greg KH:
"Here's some small fixes for 5.10-rc2 and a big driver removal.The fixes are for some reported issues in the interconnect and
coresight drivers, nothing major.The "big" driver removal is the MIC drivers have been asked to be
removed as the hardware never shipped and Intel no longer wants to
maintain something that no one can use. This is welcomed by many as
the DMA usage of these drivers was "interesting" and the security
people were starting to question some issues that were starting to be
found in the codebase.Note, one of the subsystems for this driver, the "VOP" code, will
probably come back in future kernel versions as it was looking to
potentially solve some PCIe virtualization issues that a number of
other vendors were wanting to solve. But as-is, this codebase didn't
work for anyone else so no actual functionality is being removed.All of these have been in linux-next with no reported issues"

In preparation to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang, explicitly
add break statements instead of letting the code fall through to the
next case.This patch adds four break statements that, together, fix almost 40,000
warnings when building Linux 5.10-rc1 with Clang 12.0.0 and this[1] change
reverted. Notice that in order to enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang,
such change[1] is meant to be reverted at some point. So, this patch helps
to move in that direction.Something important to mention is that there is currently a discrepancy
between GCC and Clang when dealing with switch fall-through to empty case
statements or to cases that only contain a break/continue/return
statement[2][3][4].Now that the -Wimplicit-fallthrough option has been globally enabled[5],
any compiler should really warn on missing either a fallthrough annotation
or any of the other case-terminating statements (break/continue/return/
goto) when falling through to the next case statement. Making exceptions
to this introduces variation in case handling which may continue to lead
to bugs, misunderstandings, and a general lack of robustness. The point
of enabling options like -Wimplicit-fallthrough is to prevent human error
and aid developers in spotting bugs before their code is even built/
submitted/committed, therefore eliminating classes of bugs. So, in order
to really accomplish this, we should, and can, move in the direction of
addressing any error-prone scenarios and get rid of the unintentional
fallthrough bug-class in the kernel, entirely, even if there is some minor
redundancy. Better to have explicit case-ending statements than continue to
have exceptions where one must guess as to the right result. The compiler
will eliminate any actual redundancy.[1] commit e2079e93f562c ("kbuild: Do not enable -Wimplicit-fallthrough for clang for now")

- Fix afs to not try to clear PG_writeback when laundering a page.
- Fix afs to take a ref on a page that it sets PG_private on and to

added helpers.- Fix a page leak if write_begin() fails.
- Fix afs_write_begin() to not alter the dirty region info stored in
page->private, but rather do this in afs_write_end() instead when we
know what we actually changed.- Fix afs_invalidatepage() to alter the dirty region info on a page
when partial page invalidation occurs so that we don't inadvertantly
include a span of zeros that will get written back if a page gets
laundered due to a remote 3rd-party induced invalidation.We mustn't, however, reduce the dirty region if the page has been
seen to be mapped (ie. we got called through the page_mkwrite vector)
as the page might still be mapped and we might lose data if the file
is extended again.- Fix the dirty region info to have a lower resolution if the size of
the page is too large for this to be encoded (e.g. powerpc32 with 64K
pages).Note that this might not be the ideal way to handle this, since it
may allow some leakage of undirtied zero bytes to the server's copy
in the case of a 3rd-party conflict.To aid the last two fixes, two additional changes:
- Wrap the manipulations of the dirty region info stored in
page->private into helper functions.- Alter the encoding of the dirty region so that the region bounds can
be stored with one fewer bit, making a bit available for the
indication of mappedness.* tag 'afs-fixes-20201029' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs:

Fix afs_invalidatepage() to adjust the dirty region recorded in
page->private when truncating a page. If the dirty region is entirely
removed, then the private data is cleared and the page dirty state is
cleared.Without this, if the page is truncated and then expanded again by truncate,
zeros from the expanded, but no-longer dirty region may get written back to
the server if the page gets laundered due to a conflicting 3rd-party write.It mustn't, however, shorten the dirty region of the page if that page is
still mmapped and has been marked dirty by afs_page_mkwrite(), so a flag is
stored in page->private to record this.Fixes: 4343d00872e1 ("afs: Get rid of the afs_writeback record")
Signed-off-by: David Howells -
The afs filesystem uses page->private to store the dirty range within a
page such that in the event of a conflicting 3rd-party write to the server,
we write back just the bits that got changed locally.However, there are a couple of problems with this:
(1) I need a bit to note if the page might be mapped so that partial
invalidation doesn't shrink the range.(2) There aren't necessarily sufficient bits to store the entire range of
data altered (say it's a 32-bit system with 64KiB pages or transparent
huge pages are in use).So wrap the accesses in inline functions so that future commits can change
how this works.Also move them out of the tracing header into the in-directory header.
There's not really any need for them to be in the tracing header.Signed-off-by: David Howells

Geert reports that commit be2881824ae9eb92 ("arm64/build: Assert for
unwanted sections") results in build errors on arm64 for configurations
that have CONFIG_MODULES disabled.The commit in question added ASSERT()s to the arm64 linker script to
ensure that linker generated sections such as .got.plt etc are empty,
but as it turns out, there are corner cases where the linker does emit
content into those sections. More specifically, weak references to
function symbols (which can remain unsatisfied, and can therefore not
be emitted as relative references) will be emitted as GOT and PLT
entries when linking the kernel in PIE mode (which is the case when
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE is enabled, which is on by default).What happens is that code such as
struct device *(*fn)(struct device *dev);
struct device *iommu_device;fn = symbol_get(mdev_get_iommu_device);
if (fn) {
iommu_device = fn(dev);essentially gets converted into the following when CONFIG_MODULES is off:
struct device *iommu_device;
if (&mdev_get_iommu_device) {
iommu_device = mdev_get_iommu_device(dev);where mdev_get_iommu_device is emitted as a weak symbol reference into
the object file. The first reference is decorated with an ordinary
ABS64 data relocation (which yields 0x0 if the reference remains
unsatisfied). However, the indirect call is turned into a direct call
covered by a R_AARCH64_CALL26 relocation, which is converted into a
call via a PLT entry taking the target address from the associated
GOT entry.Given that such GOT and PLT entries are unnecessary for fully linked
binaries such as the kernel, let's give these weak symbol references
hidden visibility, so that the linker knows that the weak reference
via R_AARCH64_CALL26 can simply remain unsatisfied.Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel

There are two flows for handling RDMA_CM_EVENT_ROUTE_RESOLVED, either the
handler triggers a completion and another thread does rdma_connect() or
the handler directly calls rdma_connect().In all cases rdma_connect() needs to hold the handler_mutex, but when
handler's are invoked this is already held by the core code. This causes
ULPs using the 2nd method to deadlock.Provide a rdma_connect_locked() and have all ULPs call it from their
handlers.Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/0-v2-53c22d5c1405+33-rdma_connect_locking_jgg@nvidia.com

According to the SMCCC spec[1](7.5.2 Discovery) the
ARM_SMCCC_ARCH_WORKAROUND_1 function id only returns 0, 1, and
SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED.0 is "workaround required and safe to call this function"
1 is "workaround not required but safe to call this function"
SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is "might be vulnerable or might not be, who knows, I give up!"SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED might as well mean "workaround required, except
calling this function may not work because it isn't implemented in some
cases". Wonderful. We map this SMC call to0 is SPECTRE_MITIGATED
1 is SPECTRE_UNAFFECTED
SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is SPECTRE_VULNERABLEFor KVM hypercalls (hvc), we've implemented this function id to return
SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED, 0, and SMCCC_RET_NOT_REQUIRED. One of those
isn't supposed to be there. Per the code we call
arm64_get_spectre_v2_state() to figure out what to return for this
feature discovery call.0 is SPECTRE_MITIGATED
SMCCC_RET_NOT_REQUIRED is SPECTRE_UNAFFECTED
SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is SPECTRE_VULNERABLELet's clean this up so that KVM tells the guest this mapping:
0 is SPECTRE_MITIGATED
1 is SPECTRE_UNAFFECTED
SMCCC_RET_NOT_SUPPORTED is SPECTRE_VULNERABLENote: SMCCC_RET_NOT_AFFECTED is 1 but isn't part of the SMCCC spec

Generally, a cpufreq driver may need to update some internal upper
and lower frequency boundaries on policy max and min changes,
respectively, but currently this does not work if the target
frequency does not change along with the policy limit.Namely, if the target frequency does not change along with the
policy min or max, the "target_freq == policy->cur" check in
__cpufreq_driver_target() prevents driver callbacks from being
invoked and they do not even have a chance to update the
corresponding internal boundary.This particularly affects the "powersave" and "performance"
governors that always set the target frequency to one of the
policy limits and it never changes when the other limit is updated.To allow cpufreq the drivers needing to update internal frequency
boundaries on policy limits changes to avoid this issue, introduce
a new driver flag, CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS, that (when set) will
neutralize the check mentioned above.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

generates warnings like this:.../Documentation/gpu/drm-kms-helpers:326: ../drivers/gpu/drm/drm_edid.c:1626: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined in 'gpu/drm-kms-helpers'.
Declaration is 'bool drm_edid_are_equal (const struct edid *edid1, const struct edid *edid2)'.So, get rid of the duplicated kernel-doc markup.
