After the addition of the frame_retries callback we could run into cases where a ATUSB device with an older firmware version would now longer be able to bring the interface up. We keep this functionality disabled now if the minimum firmware version for this feature is not available.

Driver code never touches "rstn" signal in atomic context, so there's no need to implicitly put such restriction on it by using gpio_set_value to manipulate it. Replace gpio_set_value to gpio_set_value_cansleep to fix that. As a an example of where such restriction might be inconvenient, consider a hardware design where "rstn" is connected to a pin of I2C/SPI GPIO expander chip.

rtm_table is an 8-bit field while table ids are allowed up to u32. Commit 709772e6 ("net: Fix routing tables with id > 255 for legacy software") added the preference to set rtm_table in dumps to RT_TABLE_COMPAT if the table id is > 255.

Commit 6ffe1c4c ("net: qcom/emac: fix of_node and phydev leaks") fixed the problem with reference leaks on phydev, but the fix is device-tree specific. When the driver unloads, the reference is dropped only on DT systems. Instead, it's cleaner if up grab an reference on ACPI systems. When the driver unloads, we can drop the reference without having to check whether we're on a DT system.

During transmission the skb is checked for headroom in order to add vendor specific header. In case the skb needs to be re-allocated, skb_realloc_headroom() is called to make a private copy of the original, but doesn't release it. Current code assumes that the original skb is released during reallocation and only releases it at the error path which causes a memory leak.

Russell King authored
When an Marvell 88E1512 PHY is connected to a nic in SGMII mode, the fiber page is used for the SGMII host-side connection. The PHY driver notices that SUPPORTED_FIBRE is set, so it tries reading the fiber page for the link status, and ends up reading the MAC-side status instead of the outgoing (copper) link. This leads to incorrect results reported via ethtool. If the PHY is connected via SGMII to the host, ignore the fiber page. However, continue to allow the existing power management code to suspend and resume the fiber page. Fixes: 6cfb3bcc ("Marvell phy: check link status in case of fiber link.")

fib_select_path does not call fib_select_multipath if oif is set in the flow struct. For VRF use cases oif is always set, so multipath route selection is bypassed. Use the FLOWI_FLAG_SKIP_NH_OIF to skip the oif check similar to what is done in fib_table_lookup.

return_unused_surplus_pages() decrements the global reservation count, and frees any unused surplus pages that were backing the reservation. Commit 7848a4bf ("mm/hugetlb.c: add cond_resched_lock() in return_unused_surplus_pages()") added a call to cond_resched_lock in the loop freeing the pages. As a result, the hugetlb_lock could be dropped, and someone else could use the pages that will be freed in subsequent iterations of the loop. This could result in inconsistent global hugetlb page state, application api failures (such as mmap) failures or application crashes. When dropping the lock in return_unused_surplus_pages, make sure that the global reservation count (resv_huge_pages) remains sufficiently large to prevent someone else from claiming pages about to be freed.

zram has used per-cpu stream feature from v4.7. It aims for increasing cache hit ratio of scratch buffer for compressing. Downside of that approach is that zram should ask memory space for compressed page in per-cpu context which requires stricted gfp flag which could be failed. If so, it retries to allocate memory space out of per-cpu context so it could get memory this time and compress the data again, copies it to the memory space. In this scenario, zram assumes the data should never be changed but it is not true without stable page support. So, If the data is changed under us, zram can make buffer overrun so that zsmalloc free object chain is broken so system goes crash like below https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=997574 This patch adds BDI_CAP_STABLE_WRITES to zram for declaring "I am block device needing *stable write*".
