[ Upstream commit c98769475575c8a585f5b3952f4b5f90266f699b ]
While usb_control_msg function expects timeout in miliseconds, a value
of HZ is used. Replace it with USB_CTRL_GET_TIMEOUT and also fix error
message which looks like:
udlfb: Read EDID byte 78 failed err ffffff92
as error is either negative errno or number of bytes transferred use %d
format specifier.
Returned EDID is in second byte, so return error when less than two bytes
are received.

Subject: xfs: fix log block underflow during recovery cycle verification
From: Brian Foster <bfoster(a)redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit 9f2a4505800607e537e9dd9dea4f55c4b0c30c7a ]
It is possible for mkfs to format very small filesystems with too
small of an internal log with respect to the various minimum size
and block count requirements. If this occurs when the log happens to
be smaller than the scan window used for cycle verification and the
scan wraps the end of the log, the start_blk calculation in
xlog_find_head() underflows and leads to an attempt to scan an
invalid range of log blocks. This results in log recovery failure
and a failed mount.
Since there may be filesystems out in the wild with this kind of
geometry, we cannot simply refuse to mount. Instead, cap the scan
window for cycle verification to the size of the physical log. This
ensures that the cycle verification proceeds as expected when the
scan wraps the end of the log.

The driver doesn't have a struct of_device_id table but supported devices
are registered via Device Trees. This is working on the assumption that a
I2C device registered via OF will always match a legacy I2C device ID and
that the MODALIAS reported will always be of the form i2c:<device>.
But this could change in the future so the correct approach is to have an
OF device ID table if the devices are registered via OF.

Subject: thermal/drivers/step_wise: Fix temperature regulation misbehavior
From: Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezcano(a)linaro.org>
[ Upstream commit 07209fcf33542c1ff1e29df2dbdf8f29cdaacb10 ]
There is a particular situation when the cooling device is cpufreq and the heat
dissipation is not efficient enough where the temperature increases little by
little until reaching the critical threshold and leading to a SoC reset.
The behavior is reproducible on a hikey6220 with bad heat dissipation (eg.
stacked with other boards).
Running a simple C program doing while(1); for each CPU of the SoC makes the
temperature to reach the passive regulation trip point and ends up to the
maximum allowed temperature followed by a reset.
This issue has been also reported by running the libhugetlbfs test suite.
What is observed is a ping pong between two cpu frequencies, 1.2GHz and 900MHz
while the temperature continues to grow.
It appears the step wise governor calls get_target_state() the first time with
the throttle set to true and the trend to 'raising'. The code selects logically
the next state, so the cpu frequency decreases from 1.2GHz to 900MHz, so far so
good. The temperature decreases immediately but still stays greater than the
trip point, then get_target_state() is called again, this time with the
throttle set to true *and* the trend to 'dropping'. From there the algorithm
assumes we have to step down the state and the cpu frequency jumps back to
1.2GHz. But the temperature is still higher than the trip point, so
get_target_state() is called with throttle=1 and trend='raising' again, we jump
to 900MHz, then get_target_state() is called with throttle=1 and
trend='dropping', we jump to 1.2GHz, etc ... but the temperature does not
stabilizes and continues to increase.

In this situation the temperature continues to increase while the trend is
oscillating between 'dropping' and 'raising'. We need to keep the current state
untouched if the throttle is set, so the temperature can decrease or a higher
state could be selected, thus preventing this oscillation.
Keeping the next_target untouched when 'throttle' is true at 'dropping' time
fixes the issue.
The following traces show the governor does not change the next state if
trend==2 (dropping) and throttle==1.

IOW, this change is needed to keep the state for a cooling device if the
temperature trend is oscillating while the temperature increases slightly.
Without this change, the situation above leads to a catastrophic crash by a
hardware reset on hikey. This issue has been reported to happen on an OMAP
dra7xx also.

Subject: target: Use system workqueue for ALUA transitions
From: Mike Christie <mchristi(a)redhat.com>
[ Upstream commit 207ee84133c00a8a2a5bdec94df4a5b37d78881c ]
If tcmu-runner is processing a STPG and needs to change the kernel's
ALUA state then we cannot use the same work queue for task management
requests and ALUA transitions, because we could deadlock. The problem
occurs when a STPG times out before tcmu-runner is able to
call into target_tg_pt_gp_alua_access_state_store->
core_alua_do_port_transition -> core_alua_do_transition_tg_pt ->
queue_work. In this case, the tmr is on the work queue waiting for
the STPG to complete, but the STPG transition is now queued behind
the waiting tmr.
Note:
This bug will also be fixed by this patch:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/target-devel/msg14560.html
which switches the tmr code to use the system workqueues.
For both, I am not sure if we need a dedicated workqueue since
it is not a performance path and I do not think we need WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
to make forward progress to free up memory like the block layer does.
