tied to those). Full details of the fixes are in the shortlog.
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
issues"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core
Pull driver core fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are some small firmware/driver core/debugfs fixes for 5.7-rc3.
The debugfs change is now possible as now the last users of
debugfs_create_u32() have been fixed up in the different trees that
got merged into 5.7-rc1, and I don't want it creeping back in.
The firmware changes did cause a regression in linux-next, so the
final patch here reverts part of that, re-exporting the symbol to
resolve that issue. All of these patches, with the exception of the
final one, have been in linux-next with only that one reported issue"

When fixing the initialization race, we neglected to account for
the fact that debugfs is initialized in wiphy_register(), and
some debugfs things went missing (or rather were rerooted to the
global debugfs root).
Fix this by adding debugfs entries only after wiphy_register().
This requires some changes in the rate control code since it
currently adds debugfs at alloc time, which can no longer be
done after the reordering.

This macro was intentionally broken so that the kernel code is not
poluted with such noargs macro used simply as markers. This use case
can be satisfied by using dummy no inline functions. Just remove it.

As the bug report [1] pointed out, <linux/vermagic.h> must be included
after <linux/module.h>.
I believe we should not impose any include order restriction. We often
sort include directives alphabetically, but it is just coding style
convention. Technically, we can include header files in any order by
making every header self-contained.
Currently, arch-specific MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC is defined in
<asm/module.h>, which is not included from <linux/vermagic.h>.
Hence, the straight-forward fix-up would be as follows:
|--- a/include/linux/vermagic.h
|+++ b/include/linux/vermagic.h
|@@ -1,5 +1,6 @@
| /* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */
| #include <generated/utsrelease.h>
|+#include <linux/module.h>
|
| /* Simply sanity version stamp for modules. */
| #ifdef CONFIG_SMP
This works enough, but for further cleanups, I split MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC
definitions into <asm/vermagic.h>.
With this, <linux/module.h> and <linux/vermagic.h> will be orthogonal,
and the location of MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definitions will be consistent.
For arc and ia64, MODULE_PROC_FAMILY is only used for defining
MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC. I squashed it.
For hexagon, nds32, and xtensa, I removed <asm/modules.h> entirely
because they contained nothing but MODULE_ARCH_VERMAGIC definition.
Kbuild will automatically generate <asm/modules.h> at build-time,
wrapping <asm-generic/module.h>.

This patch is to enable Intel SERDES power up/down sequence. The SERDES
converts 8/10 bits data to SGMII signal. Below is an example of
HW configuration for SGMII mode. The SERDES is located in the PHY IF
in the diagram below.
<-----------------GBE Controller---------->|<--External PHY chip-->
+----------+ +----+ +---+ +----------+
| EQoS | <-GMII->| DW | < ------ > |PHY| <-SGMII-> | External |
| MAC | |xPCS| |IF | | PHY |
+----------+ +----+ +---+ +----------+
^ ^ ^ ^
| | | |
+---------------------MDIO-------------------------+
PHY IF configuration and status registers are accessible through
mdio address 0x15 which is defined as mdio_adhoc_addr. During D0,
The driver will need to power up PHY IF by changing the power state
to P0. Likewise, for D3, the driver sets PHY IF power state to P3.

ASoC: Fixes for v5.7
Quite a lot of fixes here, a lot of driver specific ones but the biggest
one is the revert of changes to the startup and shutdown sequence for
DAIs that went in during the merge window - they broke some older x86
platforms and attempts to fix them didn't succeed so it's safer to just
roll them back and try to make sure those platforms are handled properly
in any future attempt.
The rockchip S/PDIF DT stuff was IIRC for validation issues.

remap_vmalloc_range() has had various issues with the bounds checks it
promises to perform ("This function checks that addr is a valid
vmalloc'ed area, and that it is big enough to cover the vma") over time,
e.g.:
- not detecting pgoff<<PAGE_SHIFT overflow
- not detecting (pgoff<<PAGE_SHIFT)+usize overflow
- not checking whether addr and addr+(pgoff<<PAGE_SHIFT) are the same
vmalloc allocation
- comparing a potentially wildly out-of-bounds pointer with the end of
the vmalloc region
In particular, since commit fc9702273e2e ("bpf: Add mmap() support for
BPF_MAP_TYPE_ARRAY"), unprivileged users can cause kernel null pointer
dereferences by calling mmap() on a BPF map with a size that is bigger
than the distance from the start of the BPF map to the end of the
address space.
This could theoretically be used as a kernel ASLR bypass, by using
whether mmap() with a given offset oopses or returns an error code to
perform a binary search over the possible address range.
To allow remap_vmalloc_range_partial() to verify that addr and
addr+(pgoff<<PAGE_SHIFT) are in the same vmalloc region, pass the offset
to remap_vmalloc_range_partial() instead of adding it to the pointer in
remap_vmalloc_range().
In remap_vmalloc_range_partial(), fix the check against
get_vm_area_size() by using size comparisons instead of pointer
comparisons, and add checks for pgoff.

/tmp/stapAcz0G0/stap_c89c58b83cea1724e26395efa9ed4939_6321_aux_6.c:78:8:
error: expected ‘;’, ‘,’ or ‘)’ before ‘*’ token
, u32[]* __tracepoint_arg_missed_ppm
That argument type is indeed rather complex and hard to read. Looking
at block/blk-iocost.c. It is just a 2-entry u32 array. By simplifying
the argument to a simple "u32 *missed_ppm" and adjusting the trace
entry accordingly, the compilation error was gone.

While the explanation for time namespace <-> vdso interactions is very
helpful it uses the wrong name in the comment when describing the clock
mode making grepping a bit annoying.
This seems like an accidental oversight when moving from VCLOCK_TIMENS
to VDSO_CLOCKMODE_TIMENS. It seems that
660fd04f9317 ("lib/vdso: Prepare for time namespace support") misspelled
VCLOCK_TIMENS as VLOCK_TIMENS which explains why it got missed when
VCLOCK_TIMENS became VDSO_CLOCKMODE_TIMENS in
2d6b01bd88cc ("lib/vdso: Move VCLOCK_TIMENS to vdso_clock_modes").
Update the comment to use VDSO_CLOCKMODE_TIMENS.

Pull flexible-array member conversion from Gustavo Silva:
"The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array
member[1][2], introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof
operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original
implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible
array members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of
code in which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously
applied to zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances
may be hiding some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member
convertions) will also help to get completely rid of those sorts of
issues.
Notice that all of these patches have been baking in linux-next for
quite a while now and, 238 more of these patches have already been
merged into 5.7-rc1.
There are a couple hundred more of these issues waiting to be
addressed in the whole codebase"

TCP stack is dumb in how it cooks its output packets.
Depending on MAX_HEADER value, we might chose a bad ending point
for the headers.
If we align the end of TCP headers to cache line boundary, we
make sure to always use the smallest number of cache lines,
which always help.

inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
