Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:
"This time there are not a lot of changes coming from the IOMMU side.
That is partly because I returned from my parental leave late in the
development process and probably partly because everyone was busy with
Spectre and Meltdown mitigation work and didn't find the time for
IOMMU work. So here are the few changes that queued up for this merge
window:
- 5-level page-table support for the Intel IOMMU.
- error reporting improvements for the AMD IOMMU driver
- additional DT bindings for ipmmu-vmsa (Renesas)
- small fixes and cleanups"

Pull more arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
"As I mentioned in the last pull request, there's a second batch of
security updates for arm64 with mitigations for Spectre/v1 and an
improved one for Spectre/v2 (via a newly defined firmware interface
API).
Spectre v1 mitigation:
- back-end version of array_index_mask_nospec()
- masking of the syscall number to restrict speculation through the
syscall table
- masking of __user pointers prior to deference in uaccess routines
Spectre v2 mitigation update:
- using the new firmware SMC calling convention specification update
- removing the current PSCI GET_VERSION firmware call mitigation as
vendors are deploying new SMCCC-capable firmware
- additional branch predictor hardening for synchronous exceptions
and interrupts while in user mode
Meltdown v3 mitigation update:
- Cavium Thunder X is unaffected but a hardware erratum gets in the
way. The kernel now starts with the page tables mapped as global
and switches to non-global if kpti needs to be enabled.
Other:
- Theoretical trylock bug fixed"

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
"This contains the fixes we'd like to target for the 4.16 merge window.
It's not as much as I was originally hoping to do but between glibc,
the chip, and FOSDEM there just wasn't enough time to get everything
put together. As such, this merge window is essentially just going to
be small changes. This includes mostly cleanups:
- A build fix failure to the audit test cases.
RISC-V doesn't have renameat because the generic syscall ABI moved
to renameat2 by the time of our port. The syscall audit test cases
don't understand this, so I added a trivial fix. This went through
mailing list review during the 4.15 merge window, but nobody has
picked it up so I think it's best to just do this here.
- The removal of our command-line argument processing code. The
"mem_end" stuff was broken and the rest duplicated generic device
tree code. The generic code was already being called.
- Some unused/redundant code has been removed, including
__ARCH_HAVE_MMU, current_pgdir, and the initialization of
init_mm.pgd.
- SUM is disabled upon taking a trap, which means that user memory is
protected during traps taking inside copy_{to,from}_user().
- The sptbr CSR has been renamed to satp in C code. We haven't
changed the assembly code in order to maintain compatibility with
binutils 2.29, which doesn't understand the new name.
Additionally, we're adding some new features:
- Basic ftrace support, thanks to Alan Kao!
- Support for ZONE_DMA32.
This is necessary for all the normal reasons, but also to deal with
a deficiency in the Xilinx PCIe controller we're using on our
FPGA-based systems. While the ZONE_DMA32 addition should be
sufficient for most uses, it doesn't complete the fix for the
Xilinx controller.
- TLB shootdowns now only target the harts where they're necessary,
instead of applying to all harts in the system.
These patches have all been sitting on our linux-next branch for a
while now. Due to time constraints this is all I feel comfortable
submitting during the 4.16 merge window, hopefully we'll do better
next time!"

to look that up. - Linus ]

Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for you net tree, they
are:
1) Restore __GFP_NORETRY in xt_table allocations to mitigate effects of
large memory allocation requests, from Michal Hocko.
2) Release IPv6 fragment queue in case of error in fragmentation header,
this is a follow up to amend patch 83f1999caeb1, from Subash Abhinov
Kasiviswanathan.
3) Flowtable infrastructure depends on NETFILTER_INGRESS as it registers
a hook for each flowtable, reported by John Crispin.
4) Missing initialization of info->priv in xt_cgroup version 1, from
Cong Wang.
5) Give a chance to garbage collector to run after scheduling flowtable
cleanup.
6) Releasing flowtable content on nft_flow_offload module removal is
not required at all, there is not dependencies between this module
and flowtables, remove it.
7) Fix missing xt_rateest_mutex grabbing for hash insertions, also from
Cong Wang.
8) Move nf_flow_table_cleanup() routine to flowtable core, this patch is
a dependency for the next patch in this list.
9) Flowtable resources are not properly released on removal from the
control plane. Fix this resource leak by scheduling removal of all
entries and explicit call to the garbage collector.
10) nf_ct_nat_offset() declaration is dead code, this function prototype
is not used anywhere, remove it. From Taehee Yoo.
11) Fix another flowtable resource leak on entry insertion failures,
this patch also fixes a possible use-after-free. Patch from Felix
Fietkau.

The declaration for swsusp_arch_resume() marks it as 'asmlinkage',
but the definition in x86-32 does not, and it fails to include
the header with the declaration. This leads to a warning when
building with link-time-optimizations:
kernel/power/power.h:108:23: error: type of 'swsusp_arch_resume' does not match original declaration [-Werror=lto-type-mismatch]
extern asmlinkage int swsusp_arch_resume(void);
^
arch/x86/power/hibernate_32.c:148:0: note: 'swsusp_arch_resume' was previously declared here
int swsusp_arch_resume(void)
This moves the declaration into a globally visible header file
and fixes up both x86 definitions to match it.

flow_offload_del frees the flow, so all associated resource must be
freed before.
Since the ct entry in struct flow_offload_entry was allocated by
flow_offload_alloc, it should be freed by flow_offload_free to take care
of the error handling path when flow_offload_add fails.
While at it, make flow_offload_del static, since it should never be
called directly, only from the gc step

SPCR is currently only enabled or ARM64 and x86 can use SPCR to setup
an early console.
General fixes include updating Documentation & Kconfig (for x86),
updating comments, and changing parse_spcr() to acpi_parse_spcr(),
and earlycon_init_is_deferred to earlycon_acpi_spcr_enable to be
more descriptive.
On x86, many systems have a valid SPCR table but the table version is
not 2 so the table version check must be a warning.
On ARM64 when the kernel parameter earlycon is used both the early console
and console are enabled. On x86, only the earlycon should be enabled by
by default. Modify acpi_parse_spcr() to allow options for initializing
the early console and console separately.

A pipe's size is represented as an 'unsigned int'. As expected, writing a
value greater than UINT_MAX to /proc/sys/fs/pipe-max-size fails with
EINVAL. However, the F_SETPIPE_SZ fcntl silently truncates such values to
32 bits, rather than failing with EINVAL as expected. (It *does* fail
with EINVAL for values above (1 << 31) but <= UINT_MAX.)
Fix this by moving the check against UINT_MAX into round_pipe_size() which
is called in both cases.

pipe_proc_fn() is no longer needed, as it only calls through to
proc_dopipe_max_size(). Just put proc_dopipe_max_size() in the ctl_table
entry directly, and remove the unneeded EXPORT_SYMBOL() and the ENOSYS
stub for it.
(The reason the ENOSYS stub isn't needed is that the pipe-max-size
ctl_table entry is located directly in 'kern_table' rather than being
registered separately. Therefore, the entry is already only defined when
the kernel is built with sysctl support.)

Patch series "pipe: buffer limits fixes and cleanups", v2.
This series simplifies the sysctl handler for pipe-max-size and fixes
another set of bugs related to the pipe buffer limits:
- The root user wasn't allowed to exceed the limits when creating new
pipes.
- There was an off-by-one error when checking the limits, so a limit of
N was actually treated as N - 1.
- F_SETPIPE_SZ accepted values over UINT_MAX.
- Reading the pipe buffer limits could be racy.
This patch (of 7):
Before validating the given value against pipe_min_size,
do_proc_dopipe_max_size_conv() calls round_pipe_size(), which rounds the
value up to pipe_min_size. Therefore, the second check against
pipe_min_size is redundant. Remove it.

We've measured that we spend ~0.6% of sys cpu time in cpumask_next_and().
It's essentially a joined iteration in search for a non-zero bit, which is
currently implemented as a lookup join (find a nonzero bit on the lhs,
lookup the rhs to see if it's set there).
Implement a direct join (find a nonzero bit on the incrementally built
join). Also add generic bitmap benchmarks in the new `test_find_bit`
module for new function (see `find_next_and_bit` in [2] and [3] below).
For cpumask_next_and, direct benchmarking shows that it's 1.17x to 14x
faster with a geometric mean of 2.1 on 32 CPUs [1]. No impact on memory
usage. Note that on Arm, the new pure-C implementation still outperforms
the old one that uses a mix of C and asm (`find_next_bit`) [3].
[1] Approximate benchmark code:
```
unsigned long src1p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern1};
unsigned long src2p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern2};
for (/*a bunch of repetitions*/) {
for (int n = -1; n <= nr_cpu_ids; ++n) {
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src1p)); // prevent any optimization
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src2p));
unsigned long result = cpumask_next_and(n, src1p, src2p);
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(result));
}
}
```
Results:

Behaviour of bitmap_fill() differs from bitmap_zero() in a way how bits
behind bitmap are handed. bitmap_zero() clears entire bitmap by unsigned
long boundary, while bitmap_fill() mimics bitmap_set().
Here we change bitmap_fill() behaviour to be consistent with bitmap_zero()
and add a note to documentation.
The change might reveal some bugs in the code where unused bits are
handled differently and in such cases bitmap_set() has to be used.

This patchset replaces bitmap_{to,from}_u32array with more simple and
standard looking copy-like functions.
bitmap_from_u32array() takes 4 arguments (bitmap_to_u32array is similar):
- unsigned long *bitmap, which is destination;
- unsigned int nbits, the length of destination bitmap, in bits;
- const u32 *buf, the source; and
- unsigned int nwords, the length of source buffer in ints.
In description to the function it is detailed like:
* copy min(nbits, 32*nwords) bits from @buf to @bitmap, remaining
* bits between nword and nbits in @bitmap (if any) are cleared.
Having two size arguments looks unneeded and potentially dangerous.
It is unneeded because normally user of copy-like function should take
care of the size of destination and make it big enough to fit source
data.
And it is dangerous because function may hide possible error if user
doesn't provide big enough bitmap, and data becomes silently dropped.
That's why all copy-like functions have 1 argument for size of copying
data, and I don't see any reason to make bitmap_from_u32array()
different.
One exception that comes in mind is strncpy() which also provides size
of destination in arguments, but it's strongly argued by the possibility
of taking broken strings in source. This is not the case of
bitmap_{from,to}_u32array().
There is no many real users of bitmap_{from,to}_u32array(), and they all
very clearly provide size of destination matched with the size of
source, so additional functionality is not used in fact. Like this:
bitmap_from_u32array(to->link_modes.supported,
__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS,
link_usettings.link_modes.supported,
__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NU32);
Where:
#define __ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NU32 \
DIV_ROUND_UP(__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_MASK_NBITS, 32)
In this patch, bitmap_copy_safe and bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 are introduced.
'Safe' in bitmap_copy_safe() stands for clearing unused bits in bitmap
beyond last bit till the end of last word. It is useful for hardening
API when bitmap is assumed to be exposed to userspace.
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 functions are replacements for
bitmap_{from,to}_u32array. They don't take unneeded nwords argument, and
so simpler in implementation and understanding.
This patch suggests optimization for 32-bit systems - aliasing
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 to bitmap_copy_safe.
Other possible optimization is aliasing 64-bit LE bitmap_{from,to}_arr32 to
more generic function(s). But I didn't end up with the function that would
be helpful by itself, and can be used to alias 64-bit LE
bitmap_{from,to}_arr32, like bitmap_copy_safe() does. So I preferred to
leave things as is.
The following patch switches kernel to new API and introduces test for it.

Exported header doesn't use anything from <linux/string.h>,
it is <linux/uuid.h> which uses memcmp().
