<content type='text'>
commit d7e92e15e92fc987640772bf110586898b5f15aa upstream.

When CONFIG_INPUT is disabled, multiple gspca backend drivers
print compile-time warnings about unused variables:

media/usb/gspca/cpia1.c: In function 'sd_stopN':
media/usb/gspca/cpia1.c:1627:13: error: unused variable 'sd' [-Werror=unused-variable]
media/usb/gspca/konica.c: In function 'sd_stopN':
media/usb/gspca/konica.c:246:13: error: unused variable 'sd' [-Werror=unused-variable]

This annotates the variables as __maybe_unused, to let the compiler
know that they are declared intentionally.

<id>urn:sha1:5869678b21800a1e038a3f8ff1bf1aba0c367830</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 2a00932f082aff93c3a55426e0c7af6d0ec03997 upstream.

When disconnecting the usbtv device, the sound card is unregistered
from ALSA and the snd member of the usbtv struct is set to NULL.  If
the usbtv snd_trigger work is running, this can cause a race condition
where the kernel will attempt to access free'd resources, shown in
[1].

This patch fixes the disconnection code by cancelling any snd_trigger
work before unregistering the sound card from ALSA and checking that
the snd member still exists in the work function.

<title>media: fix airspy usb probe error path</title>

<id>urn:sha1:aa93d1fee85c890a34f2510a310e55ee76a27848</id>
<content type='text'>
Fix a memory leak on probe error of the airspy usb device driver.

The problem is triggered when more than 64 usb devices register with
v4l2 of type VFL_TYPE_SDR or VFL_TYPE_SUBDEV.

The memory leak is caused by the probe function of the airspy driver
mishandeling errors and not freeing the corresponding control structures
when an error occours registering the device to v4l2 core.

A badusb device can emulate 64 of these devices, and then through
continual emulated connect/disconnect of the 65th device, cause the
kernel to run out of RAM and crash the kernel, thus causing a local DOS
vulnerability.

Fixes CVE-2016-5400

The current code goes through a lot of indirection just to call a
known handler.  Simplify it: just call the handlers directly.

<content type='text'>
Pull string hash improvements from George Spelvin:
 "This series does several related things:

   - Makes the dcache hash (fs/namei.c) useful for general kernel use.

     (Thanks to Bruce for noticing the zero-length corner case)

   - Converts the string hashes in &lt;linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h&gt; to use the
     above.

   - Avoids 64-bit multiplies in hash_64() on 32-bit platforms.  Two
     32-bit multiplies will do well enough.

   - Rids the world of the bad hash multipliers in hash_32.

     This finishes the job started in commit 689de1d6ca95 ("Minimal
     fix-up of bad hashing behavior of hash_64()")

     The vast majority of Linux architectures have hardware support for
     32x32-bit multiply and so derive no benefit from "simplified"
     multipliers.

     The few processors that do not (68000, h8/300 and some models of
     Microblaze) have arch-specific implementations added.  Those
     patches are last in the series.

   - Overhauls the dcache hash mixing.

     The patch in commit 0fed3ac866ea ("namei: Improve hash mixing if
     CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS") was an off-the-cuff suggestion.
     Replaced with a much more careful design that's simultaneously
     faster and better.  (My own invention, as there was noting suitable
     in the literature I could find.  Comments welcome!)

   - Modify the hash_name() loop to skip the initial HASH_MIX().  This
     would let us salt the hash if we ever wanted to.

   - Sort out partial_name_hash().

     The hash function is declared as using a long state, even though
     it's truncated to 32 bits at the end and the extra internal state
     contributes nothing to the result.  And some callers do odd things:

      - fs/hfs/string.c only allocates 32 bits of state
      - fs/hfsplus/unicode.c uses it to hash 16-bit unicode symbols not bytes

   - Modify bytemask_from_count to handle inputs of 1..sizeof(long)
     rather than 0..sizeof(long)-1.  This would simplify users other
     than full_name_hash"

  Special thanks to Bruce Fields for testing and finding bugs in v1.  (I
  learned some humbling lessons about "obviously correct" code.)

  On the arch-specific front, the m68k assembly has been tested in a
  standalone test harness, I've been in contact with the Microblaze
  maintainers who mostly don't care, as the hardware multiplier is never
  omitted in real-world applications, and I haven't heard anything from
  the H8/300 world"

* 'hash' of git://ftp.sciencehorizons.net/linux:
  h8300: Add &lt;asm/hash.h&gt;
  microblaze: Add &lt;asm/hash.h&gt;
  m68k: Add &lt;asm/hash.h&gt;
  &lt;linux/hash.h&gt;: Add support for architecture-specific functions
  fs/namei.c: Improve dcache hash function
  Eliminate bad hash multipliers from hash_32() and  hash_64()
  Change hash_64() return value to 32 bits
  &lt;linux/sunrpc/svcauth.h&gt;: Define hash_str() in terms of hashlen_string()
  fs/namei.c: Add hashlen_string() function
  Pull out string hash to &lt;linux/stringhash.h&gt;

<content type='text'>
The "simplified" prime multipliers made very bad hash functions, so get rid
of them.  This completes the work of 689de1d6ca.

To avoid the inefficiency which was the motivation for the "simplified"
multipliers, hash_64() on 32-bit systems is changed to use a different
algorithm.  It makes two calls to hash_32() instead.

drivers/media/usb/dvb-usb-v2/af9015.c uses the old GOLDEN_RATIO_PRIME_32
for some horrible reason, so it inherits a copy of the old definition.
