This reverts commit e9ede14c116f1a6246eee89d320d60a90a86b5d5 which is
commit 42a20f86dc19f9282d974df0ba4d226c865ab9dd upstream.

It has been reported to be causing problems, and is being reworked
upstream and has been dropped from the current 5.15.y stable queue until
it gets resolved.

Having a stable wchan means the process must be blocked and for it to
stay that way while performing stack unwinding.

[ Upstream commit d8b1e10a2b8efaf71d151aa756052fbf2f3b6d57 ]

Guenter reported [1] that the pci_iounmap() changes remain problematic,
with sparc64 allnoconfig and tinyconfig still not building due to the
header file changes and confusion with the arch-specific pci_iounmap()
implementation.

I'm pretty convinced that sparc should just use GENERIC_IOMAP instead of
doing its own thing, since it turns out that the sparc64 version of
pci_iounmap() is somewhat buggy (see [2]).  But in the meantime, this
just fixes the build by avoiding the trivial re-definition of the empty
case.

<id>urn:sha1:dd24b4ba2d8db4baa773c91de49517e86efebc8b</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit fc7c028dcdbfe981bca75d2a7b95f363eb691ef3 ]

The sparc mdesc code does pointer games with 'struct mdesc_hdr', but
didn't describe to the compiler how that header is then followed by the
data that the header describes.

As a result, gcc is now unhappy since it does stricter pointer range
tracking, and doesn't understand about how these things work.  This
results in various errors like:

    arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c: In function ‘mdesc_node_by_name’:
    arch/sparc/kernel/mdesc.c:647:22: error: ‘strcmp’ reading 1 or more bytes from a region of size 0 [-Werror=stringop-overread]
      647 |                 if (!strcmp(names + ep[ret].name_offset, name))
          |                      ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

which are easily avoided by just describing 'struct mdesc_hdr' better,
and making the node_block() helper function look into that unsized
data[] that follows the header.

This makes the sparc64 build happy again at least for my cross-compiler
version (gcc version 11.2.1).

Commit 53b7670e5735 ("sparc: factor the dma coherent mapping into
helper") lost the page align for the calls to dma_make_coherent and
srmmu_unmapiorange. The latter cannot handle a non page aligned len
argument.

The arch-specific Kconfig files use HAVE_IDE to indicate if IDE is
supported.

As IDE support and the HAVE_IDE config vanishes with commit b7fb14d3ac63
("ide: remove the legacy ide driver"), there is no need to mention
HAVE_IDE in all those arch-specific Kconfig files.

The issue was identified with ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py.

<content type='text'>
In case of JITs, each of the JIT backends compiles the BPF nospec instruction
/either/ to a machine instruction which emits a speculation barrier /or/ to
/no/ machine instruction in case the underlying architecture is not affected
by Speculative Store Bypass or has different mitigations in place already.

This covers both x86 and (implicitly) arm64: In case of x86, we use 'lfence'
instruction for mitigation. In case of arm64, we rely on the firmware mitigation
as controlled via the ssbd kernel parameter. Whenever the mitigation is enabled,
it works for all of the kernel code with no need to provide any additional
instructions here (hence only comment in arm64 JIT). Other archs can follow
as needed. The BPF nospec instruction is specifically targeting Spectre v4
since i) we don't use a serialization barrier for the Spectre v1 case, and
ii) mitigation instructions for v1 and v4 might be different on some archs.

The BPF nospec is required for a future commit, where the BPF verifier does
annotate intermediate BPF programs with speculation barriers.
