ACPICA commit 90f5332a15e9d9ba83831ca700b2b9f708274658

This patch adds a new FACS initialization flag for acpi_tb_initialize().
acpi_enable_subsystem() might be invoked several times in OS bootup process,
and we don't want FACS initialization to be invoked twice. Lv Zheng.

commit f254e3c57b9d952e987502aefa0804c177dd2503 upstream.

ACPICA commit 7d9fd64397d7c38899d3dc497525f6e6b044e0e3

OSPMs like Linux expect an acpi_physical_address returning value from
acpi_find_root_pointer(). This triggers warnings if sizeof (acpi_size) doesn't
equal to sizeof (acpi_physical_address):
  drivers/acpi/osl.c:275:3: warning: passing argument 1 of 'acpi_find_root_pointer' from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
  In file included from include/acpi/acpi.h:64:0,
                   from include/linux/acpi.h:36,
                   from drivers/acpi/osl.c:41:
  include/acpi/acpixf.h:433:1: note: expected 'acpi_size *' but argument is of type 'acpi_physical_address *'
This patch corrects acpi_find_root_pointer().

commit 2b8760100e1de69b6ff004c986328a82947db4ad upstream.

ACPICA commit aacf863cfffd46338e268b7415f7435cae93b451

It is reported that on a physically 64-bit addressed machine, 32-bit kernel
can trigger crashes in accessing the memory regions that are beyond the
32-bit boundary. The region field's start address should still be 32-bit
compliant, but after a calculation (adding some offsets), it may exceed the
32-bit boundary. This case is rare and buggy, but there are real BIOSes
leaked with such issues (see References below).

This patch fixes this gap by always defining IO addresses as 64-bit, and
allows OSPMs to optimize it for a real 32-bit machine to reduce the size of
the internal objects.

Internal acpi_physical_address usages in the structures that can be fixed
by this change include:
 1. struct acpi_object_region:
    acpi_physical_address		address;
 2. struct acpi_address_range:
    acpi_physical_address		start_address;
    acpi_physical_address		end_address;
 3. struct acpi_mem_space_context;
    acpi_physical_address		address;
 4. struct acpi_table_desc
    acpi_physical_address		address;
See known issues 1 for other usages.

Note that acpi_io_address which is used for ACPI_PROCESSOR may also suffer
from same problem, so this patch changes it accordingly.

For iasl, it will enforce acpi_physical_address as 32-bit to generate
32-bit OSPM compatible tables on 32-bit platforms, we need to define
ACPI_32BIT_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS for it in acenv.h.

Known issues:
 1. Cleanup of mapped virtual address
   In struct acpi_mem_space_context, acpi_physical_address is used as a virtual
   address:
    acpi_physical_address                   mapped_physical_address;
   It is better to introduce acpi_virtual_address or use acpi_size instead.
   This patch doesn't make such a change. Because this should be done along
   with a change to acpi_os_map_memory()/acpi_os_unmap_memory().
   There should be no functional problem to leave this unchanged except
   that only this structure is enlarged unexpectedly.

<title>ACPIPHP / radeon / nouveau: Fix VGA switcheroo problem related to hotplug</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1ac9b214d81c92fc119c6ffabc21464345eb21e2</id>
<content type='text'>
commit f244d8b623dae7a7bc695b0336f67729b95a9736 upstream.

The changes in the ACPI-based PCI hotplug (ACPIPHP) subsystem made
during the 3.12 development cycle uncovered a problem with VGA
switcheroo that on some systems, when the device-specific method
(ATPX in the radeon case, _DSM in the nouveau case) is used to turn
off the discrete graphics, the BIOS generates ACPI hotplug events for
that device and those events cause ACPIPHP to attempt to remove the
device from the system (they are events for a device that was present
previously and is not present any more, so that's what should be done
according to the spec).  Then, the system stops functioning correctly.

Since the hotplug events in question were simply silently ignored
previously, the least intrusive way to address that problem is to
make ACPIPHP ignore them again.  For this purpose, introduce a new
ACPI device flag, no_hotplug, and modify ACPIPHP to ignore hotplug
events for PCI devices whose ACPI companions have that flag set.
Next, make the radeon and nouveau switcheroo detection code set the
no_hotplug flag for the discrete graphics' ACPI companion.

<title>ACPI / hotplug: Fix conflicted PCI bridge notify handlers</title>

<content type='text'>
commit ca499fc87ed945094d952da0eb7eea7dbeb1feec upstream.

The PCI host bridge scan handler installs its own notify handler,
handle_hotplug_event_root(), by itself.  Nevertheless, the ACPI
hotplug framework also installs the common notify handler,
acpi_hotplug_notify_cb(), for PCI root bridges.  This causes
acpi_hotplug_notify_cb() to call _OST method with unsupported
error as hotplug.enabled is not set.

To address this issue, introduce hotplug.ignore flag, which
indicates that the scan handler installs its own notify handler by
itself.  The ACPI hotplug framework does not install the common
notify handler when this flag is set.

<title>ACPI / PM: Drop two functions that are not used any more</title>

Two functions defined in device_pm.c, acpi_dev_pm_add_dependent()
and acpi_dev_pm_remove_dependent(), have no callers and may be
dropped, so drop them.

Moreover, they are the only functions adding entries to and removing
entries from the power_dependent list in struct acpi_device, so drop
that list too.

<id>urn:sha1:f943db40c29f3c82a56956e9ca36f21d6d855db9</id>
<content type='text'>
The current protocol for handling hot remove of containers is very
fragile and causes acpi_eject_store() to acquire acpi_scan_lock
which may deadlock with the removal of the device that it is called
for (the reason is that device sysfs attributes cannot be removed
while their callbacks are being executed and ACPI device objects
are removed under acpi_scan_lock).

The problem is related to the fact that containers are handled by
acpi_bus_device_eject() in a special way, which is to emit an
offline uevent instead of just removing the container.  Then, user
space is expected to handle that uevent and use the container's
"eject" attribute to actually remove it.  That is fragile, because
user space may fail to complete the ejection (for example, by not
using the container's "eject" attribute at all) leaving the BIOS
kind of in a limbo.  Moreover, if the eject event is not signaled
for a container itself, but for its parent device object (or
generally, for an ancestor above it in the ACPI namespace), the
container will be removed straight away without doing that whole
dance.

For this reason, modify acpi_bus_device_eject() to remove containers
synchronously like any other objects (user space will get its uevent
anyway in case it does some other things in response to it) and
remove the eject_pending ACPI device flag that is not used any more.
This way acpi_eject_store() doesn't have a reason to acquire
acpi_scan_lock any more and one possible deadlock scenario goes
away (plus the code is simplified a bit).
