      crypto: rsa - Add Makefile dependencies to fix parallel builds · 5d488dee
      David Michael authored
      commit 57891633 upstream.
      
      Both asn1 headers are included by rsa_helper.c, so rsa_helper.o
      should explicitly depend on them.

      hotplug: Make register and unregister notifier API symmetric · 1c0f4e0e
      Michal Hocko authored
      commit 777c6e0d upstream.
      
      Yu Zhao has noticed that __unregister_cpu_notifier only unregisters its
      notifiers when HOTPLUG_CPU=y while the registration might succeed even
      when HOTPLUG_CPU=n if MODULE is enabled. This means that e.g. zswap
      might keep a stale notifier on the list on the manual clean up during
      the pool tear down and thus corrupt the list. Resulting in the following

      This can be even triggered manually by changing
      /sys/module/zswap/parameters/compressor multiple times.
      
      Fix this issue by making unregister APIs symmetric to the register so
      there are no surprises.
