Subject: [PATCH] lib/crypto: arm/curve25519: Disable on CPU_BIG_ENDIAN
On big endian arm kernels, the arm optimized Curve25519 code produces
incorrect outputs and fails the Curve25519 test. This has been true
ever since this code was added.
It seems that hardly anyone (or even no one?) actually uses big endian
arm kernels. But as long as they're ostensibly supported, we should
disable this code on them so that it's not accidentally used.
Note: for future-proofing, use !CPU_BIG_ENDIAN instead of
CPU_LITTLE_ENDIAN. Both of these are arch-specific options that could
get removed in the future if big endian support gets dropped.

Subject: [PATCH] smb: client: fix potential UAF in smb2_close_cached_fid()
find_or_create_cached_dir() could grab a new reference after kref_put()
had seen the refcount drop to zero but before cfid_list_lock is acquired
in smb2_close_cached_fid(), leading to use-after-free.
Switch to kref_put_lock() so cfid_release() is called with
cfid_list_lock held, closing that gap.

Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: use wiphy_hrtimer_work for csa.switch_work
The work item may be scheduled relatively far in the future. As the
event happens at a specific point in time, the normal timer accuracy is
not sufficient in that case.
Switch to use wiphy_hrtimer_work so that the accuracy is sufficient. To
make this work, use the same clock to store the timestamp.

Subject: [PATCH] wifi: mac80211: use wiphy_hrtimer_work for ml_reconf_work
The work item may be scheduled relatively far in the future. As the
event happens at a specific point in time, the normal timer accuracy is
not sufficient in that case.
Switch to use wiphy_hrtimer_work so that the accuracy is sufficient.

Subject: [PATCH] wifi: cfg80211: add an hrtimer based delayed work item
The normal timer mechanism assume that timeout further in the future
need a lower accuracy. As an example, the granularity for a timer
scheduled 4096 ms in the future on a 1000 Hz system is already 512 ms.
This granularity is perfectly sufficient for e.g. timeouts, but there
are other types of events that will happen at a future point in time and
require a higher accuracy.
Add a new wiphy_hrtimer_work type that uses an hrtimer internally. The
API is almost identical to the existing wiphy_delayed_work and it can be
used as a drop-in replacement after minor adjustments. The work will be
scheduled relative to the current time with a slack of 1 millisecond.
