Originally we enable a special gate bit when the compatible indicates
A23/33.
But according to BSP sources and user manuals, more SoCs will need this
gate bit.
So make it a common quirk configured in the config struct.

'err' is a signed int and error codes are typically negative numbers, so
use '%d' instead of '%u' to format the error code in the error message.

Pull x86 mm changes from Ingo Molnar:
"PCID support, 5-level paging support, Secure Memory Encryption support
The main changes in this cycle are support for three new, complex
hardware features of x86 CPUs:
- Add 5-level paging support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming Intel CPUs allowing up to 128 PB of virtual address space
and 4 PB of physical RAM space - a 512-fold increase over the old
limits. (Supercomputers of the future forecasting hurricanes on an
ever warming planet can certainly make good use of more RAM.)
Many of the necessary changes went upstream in previous cycles,
v4.14 is the first kernel that can enable 5-level paging.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_X86_5LEVEL=y - disabled by
default.
(By Kirill A. Shutemov)
- Add 'encrypted memory' support, which is a new hardware feature on
upcoming AMD CPUs ('Secure Memory Encryption', SME) allowing system
RAM to be encrypted and decrypted (mostly) transparently by the
CPU, with a little help from the kernel to transition to/from
encrypted RAM. Such RAM should be more secure against various
attacks like RAM access via the memory bus and should make the
radio signature of memory bus traffic harder to intercept (and
decrypt) as well.
This feature is activated via CONFIG_AMD_MEM_ENCRYPT=y - disabled
by default.
(By Tom Lendacky)
- Enable PCID optimized TLB flushing on newer Intel CPUs: PCID is a
hardware feature that attaches an address space tag to TLB entries
and thus allows to skip TLB flushing in many cases, even if we
switch mm's.
(By Andy Lutomirski)
All three of these features were in the works for a long time, and
it's coincidence of the three independent development paths that they
are all enabled in v4.14 at once"

Compared to the old xrx200_phy_fw driver the new version has multiple
enhancements. The name of the firmware files does not have to be added
to all .dts files anymore - one now configures the GPHY mode (FE or GE)
instead. Each GPHY can now also boot separate firmware (thus mixing of
GE and FE GPHYs is now possible).
The new implementation is based on the RCU syscon-mfd and uses the
reeset_controller framework instead of raw RCU register reads/writes.

The reset controllers (on xRX200 and newer SoCs have two of them) are
provided by the RCU module. This was initially implemented as a simple
reset controller. However, the RCU module provides more functionality
(ethernet GPHYs, USB PHY, etc.), which makes it a MFD device.
The old reset controller driver implementation from
arch/mips/lantiq/xway/reset.c did not honor this fact.
For some devices the request and the status bits are different.

Instead of hacking the configuration of the FPI bus into the arch code
add an own bus driver for this internal bus. The FPI bus is the main
bus of the SoC. This bus driver makes sure the bus is configured
correctly before the child drivers are getting initialized. This driver
will probably also be used on different SoCs later.

Delay the check of nd_reserved2 to the actual endpoint (acpi_nfit_ctl)
that uses it, as a prevention of a potential double-fetch bug.
While examining the kernel source code, I found a dangerous operation that
could turn into a double-fetch situation (a race condition bug) where
the same userspace memory region are fetched twice into kernel with sanity
checks after the first fetch while missing checks after the second fetch.
In the case of _IOC_NR(ioctl_cmd) == ND_CMD_CALL:
1. The first fetch happens in line 935 copy_from_user(&pkg, p, sizeof(pkg)
2. subsequently `pkg.nd_reserved2` is asserted to be all zeroes
(line 984 to 986).
3. The second fetch happens in line 1022 copy_from_user(buf, p, buf_len)
4. Given that `p` can be fully controlled in userspace, an attacker can
race condition to override the header part of `p`, say,
`((struct nd_cmd_pkg *)p)->nd_reserved2` to arbitrary value
(say nine 0xFFFFFFFF for `nd_reserved2`) after the first fetch but before the
second fetch. The changed value will be copied to `buf`.
5. There is no checks on the second fetches until the use of it in
line 1034: nd_cmd_clear_to_send(nvdimm_bus, nvdimm, cmd, buf) and
line 1038: nd_desc->ndctl(nd_desc, nvdimm, cmd, buf, buf_len, &cmd_rc)
which means that the assumed relation, `p->nd_reserved2` are all zeroes might
not hold after the second fetch. And once the control goes to these functions
we lose the context to assert the assumed relation.
6. Based on my manual analysis, `p->nd_reserved2` is not used in function
`nd_cmd_clear_to_send` and potential implementations of `nd_desc->ndctl`
so there is no working exploit against it right now. However, this could
easily turns to an exploitable one if careless developers start to use
`p->nd_reserved2` later and assume that they are all zeroes.
Move the validation of the nd_reserved2 field to the ->ndctl()
implementation where it has a stable buffer to evaluate.

Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
- Introduce the ORC unwinder, which can be enabled via
CONFIG_ORC_UNWINDER=y.
The ORC unwinder is a lightweight, Linux kernel specific debuginfo
implementation, which aims to be DWARF done right for unwinding.
Objtool is used to generate the ORC unwinder tables during build, so
the data format is flexible and kernel internal: there's no
dependency on debuginfo created by an external toolchain.
The ORC unwinder is almost two orders of magnitude faster than the
(out of tree) DWARF unwinder - which is important for perf call graph
profiling. It is also significantly simpler and is coded defensively:
there has not been a single ORC related kernel crash so far, even
with early versions. (knock on wood!)
But the main advantage is that enabling the ORC unwinder allows
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTERS to be turned off - which speeds up the kernel
measurably:
With frame pointers disabled, GCC does not have to add frame pointer
instrumentation code to every function in the kernel. The kernel's
.text size decreases by about 3.2%, resulting in better cache
utilization and fewer instructions executed, resulting in a broad
kernel-wide speedup. Average speedup of system calls should be
roughly in the 1-3% range - measurements by Mel Gorman [1] have shown
a speedup of 5-10% for some function execution intense workloads.
The main cost of the unwinder is that the unwinder data has to be
stored in RAM: the memory cost is 2-4MB of RAM, depending on kernel
config - which is a modest cost on modern x86 systems.
Given how young the ORC unwinder code is it's not enabled by default
- but given the performance advantages the plan is to eventually make
it the default unwinder on x86.
See Documentation/x86/orc-unwinder.txt for more details.
- Remove lguest support: its intended role was that of a temporary
proof of concept for virtualization, plus its removal will enable the
reduction (removal) of the paravirt API as well, so Rusty agreed to
its removal. (Juergen Gross)
- Clean up and fix FSGS related functionality (Andy Lutomirski)
- Clean up IO access APIs (Andy Shevchenko)

Don't populate the array seq on the stack, instead make it static.
Makes the object code smaller by over 170 bytes:

'clk' is copied to a userland with padding byte(s) after 'vclk_post_div'
field unitialized, leaking data from the stack. Fix this ensuring all of
'clk' is initialized to zero.

If a zero for the number of colums or rows manages to slip through,
gotoxy() will underflow vc->vc_pos, causing the next action on the
referenced memory to end with a page fault.
Make the check in vgacon_startup() more pessimistic to prevent that.

This removes the restriction on the value range of the fbcon=margin:
parameter. The color value really depends on the driver being used.
