Merge the mvebu/drivers branch of the arm-soc tree which contains
just a single patch bfa1ce5f38938cc9e6c7f2d1011f88eba2b9e2b2 ("bus:
mvebu-mbus: add mv_mbus_dram_info_nooverlap()") that happens to be
a prerequisite of the new marvell/cesa crypto driver.

The '__init aesni_init()' function calls the '__exit crypto_fpu_exit()'
function directly. Since they are in different sections, this generates
a warning.make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y
...
WARNING: arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel.o(.init.text+0x12b): Section
mismatch in reference from the function init_module() to the function
.exit.text:crypto_fpu_exit()
The function __init init_module() references
a function __exit crypto_fpu_exit().
This is often seen when error handling in the init function
uses functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __exit annotation of
crypto_fpu_exit() so it may be used outside an exit section.Fix the warning by removing the __exit annotation.

This patch converts rfc4106-gcm-aesni to the new AEAD interface.
The low-level interface remains as is for now because we can't
touch it until cryptd itself is upgraded.In the conversion I've also removed the duplicate copy of the
context in the top-level algorithm. Now all processing is carried
out in the low-level __driver-gcm-aes-aesni algorithm.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu

This trims off a couple of instructions of the total size of the

This replaces the SHA-512 NEON module with the faster and more
versatile implementation from the OpenSSL project. It consists
of both a NEON and a generic ASM version of the core SHA-512
transform, where the NEON version reverts to the ASM version
when invoked in non-process context.This patch is based on the OpenSSL upstream version b1a5d1c65208
of sha512-armv4.pl, which can be found here:https://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;h=b1a5d1c65208

Whereas for Armada 370 and XP the main PLL frequency was 2GHz for the
Armada 375, 38x and 39x, the frequency is 1GHz. When writing support
for these last SoCs, there was no official value for the PLL. Now that
we have it, this patch fixes it in the device tree.This value is currently only used by the NAND driver for the setting
the NAND timing. Fortunately it is not actually used: all the mainline
board with a NAND flash comes with a NAND device tree node using the
"marvell,nand-keep-config" property. With this property the timings
are not modified in the kernel driver and are kept from the
bootloader.Signed-off-by: Gregory CLEMENT

AMD CPUs don't reinitialize the SS descriptor on SYSRET, so SYSRET with
SS == 0 results in an invalid usermode state in which SS is apparently
equal to __USER_DS but causes #SS if used.Work around the issue by setting SS to __KERNEL_DS __switch_to, thus
ensuring that SYSRET never happens with SS set to NULL.This was exposed by a recent vDSO cleanup.

Pull initial ACPI support for arm64 from Will Deacon:
"This series introduces preliminary ACPI 5.1 support to the arm64
kernel using the "hardware reduced" profile. We don't support any
peripherals yet, so it's fairly limited in scope:- MEMORY init (UEFI)
- ACPI discovery (RSDP via UEFI)
- CPU init (FADT)
- GIC init (MADT)
- SMP boot (MADT + PSCI)
- ACPI Kconfig options (dependent on EXPERT)
ACPI for arm64 has been in development for a while now and hardware
has been available that can boot with either FDT or ACPI tables. This
has been made possible by both changes to the ACPI spec to cater for
ARM-based machines (known as "hardware-reduced" in ACPI parlance) but
also a Linaro-driven effort to get this supported on top of the Linux
kernel. This pull request is the result of that work.These changes allow us to initialise the CPUs, interrupt controller,
and timers via ACPI tables, with memory information and cmdline coming
from EFI. We don't support a hybrid ACPI/FDT scheme. Of course,
there is still plenty of work to do (a serial console would be nice!)
but I expect that to happen on a per-driver basis after this core
series has been merged.Anyway, the diff stat here is fairly horrible, but splitting this up
and merging it via all the different subsystems would have been
extremely painful. Instead, we've got all the relevant Acks in place
and I've not seen anything other than trivial (Kconfig) conflicts in
-next (for completeness, I've included my resolution below). Nearly
half of the insertions fall under Documentation/.So, we'll see how this goes. Right now, it all depends on EXPERT and

Commit cae2a173fe94 ("x86: clean up/fix 'copy_in_user()' tail zeroing")
fixed the failure case tail zeroing of one special case of the x86-64
generic user-copy routine, namely when used for the user-to-user case
("copy_in_user()").But in the process it broke an even more unusual case: using the user
copy routine for kernel-to-kernel copying.Now, normally kernel-kernel copies are obviously done using memcpy(),
but we have a couple of special cases when we use the user-copy
functions. One is when we pass a kernel buffer to a regular user-buffer
routine, using set_fs(KERNEL_DS). That's a "normal" case, and continued
to work fine, because it never takes any faults (with the possible
exception of a silent and successful vmalloc fault).But Jan Beulich pointed out another, very unusual, special case: when we
use the user-copy routines not because it's a path that expects a user
pointer, but for a couple of ftrace/kgdb cases that want to do a kernel
copy, but do so using "unsafe" buffers, and use the user-copy routine to
gracefully handle faults. IOW, for probe_kernel_write().And that broke for the case of a faulting kernel destination, because we
saw the kernel destination and wanted to try to clear the tail of the
buffer. Which doesn't work, since that's what faults.This only triggers for things like kgdb and ftrace users (eg trying
setting a breakpoint on read-only memory), but it's definitely a bug.
The fix is to not compare against the kernel address start (TASK_SIZE),
but instead use the same limits "access_ok()" uses.Reported-and-tested-by: Jan Beulich

Patch e68410ebf626 ("crypto: x86/sha512_ssse3 - move SHA-384/512
SSSE3 implementation to base layer") changed the prototypes of the
core asm SHA-512 implementations so that they are compatible with
the prototype used by the base layer.However, in one instance, the register that was used for passing the
input buffer was reused as a scratch register later on in the code,
and since the input buffer param changed places with the digest param
-which needs to be written back before the function returns- this
resulted in the scratch register to be dereferenced in a memory write
operation, causing a GPF.Fix this by changing the scratch register to use the same register as
