Subject: vmalloc: fix __GFP_HIGHMEM usage for vmalloc_32 on 32b systems
Kai Heng Feng has noticed that BUG_ON(PageHighMem(pg)) triggers in
drivers/media/common/saa7146/saa7146_core.c since 19809c2da28a ("mm,
vmalloc: use __GFP_HIGHMEM implicitly"). saa7146_vmalloc_build_pgtable
uses vmalloc_32 and it is reasonable to expect that the resulting page is
not in highmem. The above commit aimed to add __GFP_HIGHMEM only for
those requests which do not specify any zone modifier gfp flag.
vmalloc_32 relies on GFP_VMALLOC32 which should do the right thing.
Except it has been missed that GFP_VMALLOC32 is an alias for GFP_KERNEL on
32b architectures. Thanks to Matthew to notice this.
Fix the problem by unconditionally setting GFP_DMA32 in GFP_VMALLOC32 for
!64b arches (as a bailout). This should do the right thing and use
ZONE_NORMAL which should be always below 4G on 32b systems.
Debugged by Matthew Wilcox.

Some other drivers may be waiting for our extcon to show-up (exiting their
probe methods with -EPROBE_DEFER until we show up).
These drivers will typically get the cable state directly after getting
the extcon, this commit changes the int3496 code to process the id-pin
before registering the extcon, so that other drivers see the correct state
right away.

With commit 3cf32d180227 ("mtd: nand: vf610: switch to
mtd_ooblayout_ops") the driver started to use the NAND cores
default large page ooblayout. However, shortly after commit
6a623e076944 ("mtd: nand: add ooblayout for old hamming layout")
changed the default layout to the old hamming layout, which is
not what vf610_nfc is using. Specify the default large page
layout explicitly.

Commit 41d600274fbf ("extcon: int3496: process id-pin first so that we
start with the right status") starts the work on the workqueue before
registration to make sure we've a valid cable state directly after
registration.
But that commit moves the queuing of the work to before we even alloc the
extcon, causing a NULL pointer deref in the worker.
This commit moves the queuing of the work to after we alloc the extcon,

It was reported by Sergey Senozhatsky that if THP (Transparent Huge
Page) and frontswap (via zswap) are both enabled, when memory goes low
so that swap is triggered, segfault and memory corruption will occur
in random user space applications as follow,
kernel: urxvt[338]: segfault at 20 ip 00007fc08889ae0d sp 00007ffc73a7fc40 error 6 in libc-2.26.so[7fc08881a000+1ae000]

After bisection, it was found the first bad commit is
bd4c82c22c367e068 ("mm, THP, swap: delay splitting THP after swapped
out").
The root cause is as follow.
When the pages are written to swap device during swapping out in
swap_writepage(), zswap (fontswap) is tried to compress the pages
instead to improve the performance. But zswap (frontswap) will treat
THP as normal page, so only the head page is saved. After swapping
in, tail pages will not be restored to its original contents, so cause
the memory corruption in the applications.
This is fixed via splitting THP before writing the page to swap device
if frontswap is enabled. To deal with the situation where frontswap
is enabled at runtime, whether the page is THP is checked before using
frontswap during swapping out too.

2.15.1
Commit fd8aa9095a95 ("xen: optimize xenbus driver for multiple concurrent
xenstore accesses") optimized xenbus concurrent accesses but in doing so
broke UABI of /dev/xen/xenbus. Through /dev/xen/xenbus applications are in
charge of xenbus message exchange with the correct header and body. Now,
after the mentioned commit the replies received by application will no
longer have the header req_id echoed back as it was on request (see
specification below for reference), because that particular field is being
overwritten by kernel.
struct xsd_sockmsg
{
uint32_t type; /* XS_??? */
uint32_t req_id;/* Request identifier, echoed in daemon's response. */
uint32_t tx_id; /* Transaction id (0 if not related to a transaction). */
uint32_t len; /* Length of data following this. */
/* Generally followed by nul-terminated string(s). */
};
Before there was only one request at a time so req_id could simply be
forwarded back and forth. To allow simultaneous requests we need a
different req_id for each message thus kernel keeps a monotonic increasing
counter for this field and is written on every request irrespective of
userspace value.
Forwarding again the req_id on userspace requests is not a solution because
we would open the possibility of userspace-generated req_id colliding with
kernel ones. So this patch instead takes another route which is to
artificially keep user req_id while keeping the xenbus logic as is. We do
that by saving the original req_id before xs_send(), use the private kernel
counter as req_id and then once reply comes and was validated, we restore
back the original req_id.

Here's a link to a unit test (https://pastebin.com/2q51j2sR) where req_id of
reply and response are being asserted each request. Without this patch
the assert will fail (e.g. try it with `./xswire_reqid_test name`). But
on <= v4.10 or >= v4.11 with the fix above, it will print domain name 10
times.
Changes since v1:
* Adjust commit message
(Comments from Juergen on IRC)
* Unilateraly save/restore req_id and remove xs_request_is_user()
* Initialize req_id for kernel callers

In function xhci_stop, xhci_debugfs_exit called before xhci_mem_cleanup.
xhci_debugfs_exit removed the xhci debugfs root nodes, xhci_mem_cleanup
called function xhci_free_virt_devices_depth_first which in turn called
function xhci_debugfs_remove_slot.
Function xhci_debugfs_remove_slot removed the nodes for devices, the nodes
folders are sub folder of xhci debugfs.
It is unreasonable to remove xhci debugfs root folder before
xhci debugfs sub folder. Function xhci_mem_cleanup should be called
before function xhci_debugfs_exit.

During system resume from hibernation, xhci host is reset, all the
nodes in devices folder are removed in xhci_mem_cleanup function.
Later nodes in /sys/kernel/debug/usb/xhci/* are created again in
function xhci_run, but the nodes already exist, so the nodes still
keep the old ones, finally device nodes in xhci debugfs folder
/sys/kernel/debug/usb/xhci/*/devices/* are disappeared.
This fix removed xhci debugfs nodes before the nodes are re-created,
so all the nodes in xhci debugfs can be re-created successfully.
