Commit cae2a173fe94 ("x86: clean up/fix 'copy_in_user()' tail zeroing")
fixed the failure case tail zeroing of one special case of the x86-64
generic user-copy routine, namely when used for the user-to-user case
("copy_in_user()").
But in the process it broke an even more unusual case: using the user
copy routine for kernel-to-kernel copying.
Now, normally kernel-kernel copies are obviously done using memcpy(),
but we have a couple of special cases when we use the user-copy
functions. One is when we pass a kernel buffer to a regular user-buffer
routine, using set_fs(KERNEL_DS). That's a "normal" case, and continued
to work fine, because it never takes any faults (with the possible
exception of a silent and successful vmalloc fault).
But Jan Beulich pointed out another, very unusual, special case: when we
use the user-copy routines not because it's a path that expects a user
pointer, but for a couple of ftrace/kgdb cases that want to do a kernel
copy, but do so using "unsafe" buffers, and use the user-copy routine to
gracefully handle faults. IOW, for probe_kernel_write().
And that broke for the case of a faulting kernel destination, because we
saw the kernel destination and wanted to try to clear the tail of the
buffer. Which doesn't work, since that's what faults.
This only triggers for things like kgdb and ftrace users (eg trying
setting a breakpoint on read-only memory), but it's definitely a bug.
The fix is to not compare against the kernel address start (TASK_SIZE),
but instead use the same limits "access_ok()" uses.

We have two machines with alc256 codec in the pin quirk table, so
moving the common pins to ALC256_STANDARD_PINS.

Sometimes it fails to wake up from suspend to RAM, this is because
we would flush the data cache by assemble command FLUSHINV before
suspend to RAM, and there is a delay between this command execution
and cache flush completion. Add a 1uS delay to works around this.

For platforms that don't support DT, some early MFD modules can register
lookup tables. Remove the __init annotation so that this works. This is
similar to gpio_add_lookup_table() which allows late additions.
