[ Upstream commit 388bcc6ecc609fca1b4920de7dc3806c98ec535e ]

If platform bus driver registration is failed then, accessing
platform bus spin lock (&amp;drv-&gt;driver.bus-&gt;p-&gt;klist_drivers.k_lock)
in __platform_driver_probe() without verifying the return value
__platform_driver_register() can lead to NULL pointer exception.

So check the return value before attempting the spin lock.

One such example is below:

For a custom usecase, I have intentionally failed the platform bus
registration and I expected all the platform device/driver
registrations to fail gracefully. But I came across this panic
issue.

<content type='text'>
commit 7e5b3c267d256822407a22fdce6afdf9cd13f9fb upstream

SRBDS is an MDS-like speculative side channel that can leak bits from the
random number generator (RNG) across cores and threads. New microcode
serializes the processor access during the execution of RDRAND and
RDSEED. This ensures that the shared buffer is overwritten before it is
released for reuse.

While it is present on all affected CPU models, the microcode mitigation
is not needed on models that enumerate ARCH_CAPABILITIES[MDS_NO] in the
cases where TSX is not supported or has been disabled with TSX_CTRL.

The mitigation is activated by default on affected processors and it
increases latency for RDRAND and RDSEED instructions. Among other
effects this will reduce throughput from /dev/urandom.

* Enable administrator to configure the mitigation off when desired using
  either mitigations=off or srbds=off.

* Export vulnerability status via sysfs

* Rename file-scoped macros to apply for non-whitelist table initializations.

Currently the check that a u32 variable i is &gt;= 0 is always true because
the unsigned variable will never be negative, causing the loop to run
forever.  Fix this by changing the pre-decrement check to a zero check on
i followed by a decrement of i.

If a device already has devres items attached before probing, a warning
backtrace is printed.  However, this backtrace does not reveal the
offending device, leaving the user uninformed.  Furthermore, using
WARN_ON() causes systems with panic-on-warn to reboot.

Fix this by replacing the WARN_ON() by a dev_crit() message.
Abort probing the device, to prevent doing more damage to the device's
resources.

<title>PM: core: Fix handling of devices deleted during system-wide resume</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5d56260c5e9fdbbba59655f63622f6159bf0e595</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 0552e05fdfea191a2cf3a0abd33574b5ef9ca818 upstream.

If a device is deleted by one of its system-wide resume callbacks
(for example, because it does not appear to be present or accessible
any more) along with its children, the resume of the children may
continue leading to use-after-free errors and other issues
(potentially).

Namely, if the device's children are resumed asynchronously, their
resume may have been scheduled already before the device's callback
runs and so the device may be deleted while dpm_wait_for_superior()
is being executed for them.  The memory taken up by the parent device
object may be freed then while dpm_wait() is waiting for the parent's
resume callback to complete, which leads to a use-after-free.
Moreover, the resume of the children is really not expected to
continue after they have been unregistered, so it must be terminated
right away in that case.

To address this problem, modify dpm_wait_for_superior() to check
if the target device is still there in the system-wide PM list of
devices and if so, to increment its parent's reference counter, both
under dpm_list_mtx which prevents device_del() running for the child
from dropping the parent's reference counter prematurely.

If the device is not present in the system-wide PM list of devices
any more, the resume of it cannot continue, so check that again after
dpm_wait() returns, which means that the parent's callback has been
completed, and pass the result of that check to the caller of
dpm_wait_for_superior() to allow it to abort the device's resume
if it is not there any more.

It is incorrect to call pm_runtime_get_sync() under
device_links_write_lock(), because it may end up trying to take
device_links_read_lock() while resuming the target device and that
will deadlock in the non-SRCU case, so avoid that by resuming the
supplier device in device_link_add() before calling
device_links_write_lock().
