From: Hao Chen <flank3rsky(a)gmail.com>
[ Upstream commit 3ea15452ee85754f70f3b9fa1f23165ef2e77ba7 ]
nl80211_nan_add_func() does not check if the required attribute
NL80211_NAN_FUNC_FOLLOW_UP_DEST is present when processing
NL80211_CMD_ADD_NAN_FUNCTION request. This request can be issued
by users with CAP_NET_ADMIN privilege and may result in NULL dereference
and a system crash. Add a check for the required attribute presence.

From: Sean Wang <sean.wang(a)mediatek.com>

The current solution would setup fixed and force link of 1Gbps to the both
GMAC on the default. However, The GMAC should always be put to link down
state when the GMAC is disabled on certain target boards. Otherwise,
the driver possibly receives unexpected data from the floating hardware
connection through the unused GMAC. Although the driver had been added
certain protection in RX path to get rid of such kind of unexpected data
sent to the upper stack.

lost to driver. At the same time address of newly allocated skb

Subject: mtd: nand: gpmi: Fix failure when a erased page has a bitflip at BBM
From: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer(a)pengutronix.de>
[ Upstream commit fdf2e821052958a114618a95ab18a300d0b080cb ]
When erased subpages are read then the BCH decoder returns STATUS_ERASED
if they are all empty, or STATUS_UNCORRECTABLE if there are bitflips.
When there are bitflips, we have to set these bits again to show the
upper layers a completely erased page. When a bitflip happens in the
exact byte where the bad block marker is, then this byte is swapped
with another byte in block_mark_swapping(). The correction code then
detects a bitflip in another subpage and no longer corrects the bitflip
where it really happens.
Correct this behaviour by calling block_mark_swapping() after the
bitflips have been corrected.
In our case UBIFS failed with this bug because it expects erased
pages to be really empty:
UBIFS error (pid 187): ubifs_scan: corrupt empty space at LEB 36:118735
UBIFS error (pid 187): ubifs_scanned_corruption: corruption at LEB 36:118735
UBIFS error (pid 187): ubifs_scanned_corruption: first 8192 bytes from LEB 36:118735
UBIFS error (pid 187): ubifs_scan: LEB 36 scanning failed
UBIFS error (pid 187): do_commit: commit failed, error -117

Subject: mtd: nand: brcmnand: Zero bitflip is not an error
From: Albert Hsieh <wen.hsieh(a)broadcom.com>
[ Upstream commit e44b9a9c135727f3410e029910275f40681dc8bc ]
A negative return value of brcmstb_nand_verify_erased_page() indicates a
real bitflip error of an erased page, and other return values (>= 0) show
the corrected bitflip number. Zero return value means no bitflip, but the
current driver code treats it as an error, and eventually leads to
falsely reported ECC error.
