       "These are stable-candidate fixes of some recently reported issues in

        hibernate core.
      
        Specifics:
      
         - Revert a 3.17 hibernate commit that was supposed to fix an issue
           related to e820 reserved regions, but broke resume from hibernation
           on Lenovo x230 (Rafael J Wysocki).
      
         - Prevent the ACPI cpuidle driver from overwriting the name and
           description of the C0 state set by the core when the list of
           C-states changes (Thomas Schlichter).
      
         - Remove the no longer needed state_count field from struct
           cpuidle_device which prevents the list of C-states shown by the
           sysfs interface from becoming incorrect when the current number of
           them is different from the number of C-states on boot (Bartlomiej
           Zolnierkiewicz).
      
         - The cpufreq core updates the policy object of the only online CPU
           during system resume to make it reflect the current hardware state,
           but it always assumes that CPU to be CPU0 which need not be the
           case, so fix the code to avoid that assumption (Viresh Kumar)"

      Copy the kernel module data from user space in chunks · 3afe9f84
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      
      Unlike most (all?) other copies from user space, kernel module loading
      is almost unlimited in size.  So we do a potentially huge
      "copy_from_user()" when we copy the module data from user space to the
      kernel buffer, which can be a latency concern when preemption is
      disabled (or voluntary).
      
      Also, because 'copy_from_user()' clears the tail of the kernel buffer on
      failures, even a *failed* copy can end up wasting a lot of time.
      
      Normally neither of these are concerns in real life, but they do trigger
      when doing stress-testing with trinity.  Running in a VM seems to add
      its own overheadm causing trinity module load testing to even trigger
      the watchdog.
      
      The simple fix is to just chunk up the module loading, so that it never
      tries to copy insanely big areas in one go.  That bounds the latency,
      and also the amount of (unnecessarily, in this case) cleared memory for
      the failure case.

      x86: clean up/fix 'copy_in_user()' tail zeroing · cae2a173
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      
      The rule for 'copy_from_user()' is that it zeroes the remaining kernel
      buffer even when the copy fails halfway, just to make sure that we don't
      leave uninitialized kernel memory around.  Because even if we check for
      errors, some kernel buffers stay around after thge copy (think page
      cache).
      
      However, the x86-64 logic for user copies uses a copy_user_generic()
      function for all the cases, that set the "zerorest" flag for any fault
      on the source buffer.  Which meant that it didn't just try to clear the
      kernel buffer after a failure in copy_from_user(), it also tried to
      clear the destination user buffer for the "copy_in_user()" case.
      
      Not only is that pointless, it also means that the clearing code has to
      worry about the tail clearing taking page faults for the user buffer
      case.  Which is just stupid, since that case shouldn't happen in the
      first place.
      
      Get rid of the whole "zerorest" thing entirely, and instead just check
      if the destination is in kernel space or not.  And then just use
      memset() to clear the tail of the kernel buffer if necessary.

      PCI: Don't look for ACPI hotplug parameters if ACPI is disabled · 8647ca9a
      Bjorn Helgaas authored
      Booting a v3.18 or newer Xen domU kernel with PCI devices passed through
      results in an oops (this is a 32-bit 3.13.11 dom0 with a 64-bit 4.4.0
      hypervisor and 32-bit domU):
      
        BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 0030303e
        IP: [<c06ed0e6>] acpi_ns_validate_handle+0x12/0x1a

      Don't look for ACPI configuration information if ACPI has been disabled.
      
      I don't think this is the best fix, because we can boot plain Linux (no
      Xen) with "acpi=off", and we don't need this check in pci_get_hp_params().
      There should be a better fix that would make Xen domU work the same way.
      The domU kernel has ACPI support but it has no AML.  There should be a way
      to initialize the ACPI data structures so things fail gracefully rather
      than oopsing.  This is an interim fix to address the regression.
