[ Upstream commit 758929005f06f954b7e1c87a1c9fdb44157b228f ]
Function devm_regmap_init_mmio() returns an ERR_PTR on error. However,
in function snvs_rtc_probe() its return value is checked against NULL.
This patch fixes it by checking the return value with IS_ERR().

Subject: rtc: opal: Handle disabled TPO in opal_get_tpo_time()
From: Vaibhav Jain <vaibhav(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com>
[ Upstream commit 6dc1cf6f932bb0ea4d8f5e913a0a401ecacd2f03 ]
On PowerNV platform when Timed-Power-On(TPO) is disabled, read of
stored TPO yields value with all date components set to '0' inside
opal_get_tpo_time(). The function opal_to_tm() then converts it to an
offset from year 1900 yielding alarm-time == "1900-00-01
00:00:00". This causes problems with __rtc_read_alarm() that
expecting an offset from "1970-00-01 00:00:00" and returned alarm-time
results in a -ve value for time64_t. Which ultimately results in this
error reported in kernel logs with a seemingly garbage value:
"rtc rtc0: invalid alarm value: -2-1--1041528741
2005511117:71582844:32"
We fix this by explicitly handling the case of all alarm date-time
components being '0' inside opal_get_tpo_time() and returning -ENOENT
in such a case. This signals generic rtc that no alarm is set and it
bails out from the alarm initialization flow without reporting the
above error.

Subject: rtc: interface: Validate alarm-time before handling rollover
From: Vaibhav Jain <vaibhav(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com>
[ Upstream commit da96aea0ed177105cb13ee83b328f6c61e061d3f ]
In function __rtc_read_alarm() its possible for an alarm time-stamp to
be invalid even after replacing missing components with current
time-stamp. The condition 'alarm->time.tm_year < 70' will trigger this
case and will cause the call to 'rtc_tm_to_time64(&alarm->time)'
return a negative value for variable t_alm.
While handling alarm rollover this negative t_alm (assumed to seconds
offset from '1970-01-01 00:00:00') is converted back to rtc_time via
rtc_time64_to_tm() which results in this error log with seemingly
garbage values:
"rtc rtc0: invalid alarm value: -2-1--1041528741
2005511117:71582844:32"
This error was generated when the rtc driver (rtc-opal in this case)
returned an alarm time-stamp of '00-00-00 00:00:00' to indicate that
the alarm is disabled. Though I have submitted a separate fix for the
rtc-opal driver, this issue may potentially impact other
existing/future rtc drivers.
To fix this issue the patch validates the alarm time-stamp just after
filling up the missing datetime components and if rtc_valid_tm() still
reports it to be invalid then bails out of the function without
handling the rollover.

From: Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varadhan(a)oracle.com>
[ Upstream commit 7ae0c649c47f1c5d2db8cee6dd75855970af1669 ]
If the rds_sock is not added to the bind_hash_table, we must
reset rs_bound_addr so that rds_remove_bound will not trip on
this rds_sock.
rds_add_bound() does a rds_sock_put() in this failure path, so
failing to reset rs_bound_addr will result in a socket refcount
bug, and will trigger a WARN_ON with the stack shown below when
the application subsequently tries to close the PF_RDS socket.

Using memcpy() from a buffer that is shorter than the length copied means
the destination buffer is being filled with arbitrary data from the kernel
rodata segment. In this case, the source was made longer, since it did not
match the destination structure size. Additionally removes a needless cast.
This was found with the future CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE feature.

[ Upstream commit 99acc9bede06bbb2662aafff51f5b9e529fa845e ]
If a process dumps core while it has SPU contexts active then we have
code to also dump information about the SPU contexts.
Unfortunately it's been broken for 3 1/2 years, and we didn't notice. In
commit 7b1f4020d0d1 ("spufs: get rid of dump_emit() wrappers") the nread
variable was removed and rc used instead. That means when the loop exits
successfully, rc has the number of bytes read, but it's then used as the
return value for the function, which should return 0 on success.
So fix it by setting rc = 0 before returning in the success case.

Subject: powerpc/mm: Fix virt_addr_valid() etc. on 64-bit hash
From: Michael Ellerman <mpe(a)ellerman.id.au>
[ Upstream commit e41e53cd4fe331d0d1f06f8e4ed7e2cc63ee2c34 ]
virt_addr_valid() is supposed to tell you if it's OK to call virt_to_page() on
an address. What this means in practice is that it should only return true for
addresses in the linear mapping which are backed by a valid PFN.
We are failing to properly check that the address is in the linear mapping,
because virt_to_pfn() will return a valid looking PFN for more or less any
address. That bug is actually caused by __pa(), used in virt_to_pfn().
eg: __pa(0xc000000000010000) = 0x10000 # Good
__pa(0xd000000000010000) = 0x10000 # Bad!
__pa(0x0000000000010000) = 0x10000 # Bad!
This started happening after commit bdbc29c19b26 ("powerpc: Work around gcc
miscompilation of __pa() on 64-bit") (Aug 2013), where we changed the definition
of __pa() to work around a GCC bug. Prior to that we subtracted PAGE_OFFSET from
the value passed to __pa(), meaning __pa() of a 0xd or 0x0 address would give
you something bogus back.
Until we can verify if that GCC bug is no longer an issue, or come up with
another solution, this commit does the minimal fix to make virt_addr_valid()
work, by explicitly checking that the address is in the linear mapping region.

[ Upstream commit 6e2f03e292ef46eed2b31b0a344a91d514f9cd81 ]
Prevent a kernel panic caused by unintentionally clearing TCR watchdog
bits. At this point in the kernel boot, the watchdog may have already
been enabled by u-boot. The original code's attempt to write to the TCR
register results in an inadvertent clearing of the watchdog
configuration bits, causing the 476 to reset.
