<id>urn:sha1:7a7a8f549ddd18126dfa3dedbe42d877614c7995</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that patch.o is unconditionally selected for ftrace, it can also
get compiled for !MMU kernels. These (obviously) lack
{set,clear}_fixmap() support.

Also remove the superfluous __acquire/__release nonsense.

<content type='text'>
The __patch_text() function already applies __opcode_to_mem_*(), so
when __opcode_to_mem_*() is not the identity (BE*), it is applied
twice, wrecking the instruction.

<content type='text'>
The stacktrace code can read beyond the stack size, when it attempts to
read pt_regs from exception frames.

This can happen on normal, non-corrupt stacks.  Since the unwind
information in the extable is not correct for function prologues, the
unwinding code can return data from the stack which is not actually the
caller function address, and if in_entry_text() happens to succeed on
this value, we can end up reading data from outside the task's stack
when attempting to read pt_regs, since there is no bounds check.

Example:

 [&lt;8010e729&gt;] (unwind_backtrace) from [&lt;8010a9c9&gt;] (show_stack+0x11/0x14)
 [&lt;8010a9c9&gt;] (show_stack) from [&lt;8057d8d7&gt;] (dump_stack+0x87/0xac)

 [&lt;8036a523&gt;] (gic_handle_irq) from [&lt;80101a49&gt;] (__irq_svc+0x69/0xb4)

 2000: 00000001 00000000 ea846c00 ea847cc0

In this example, the stack limit is 0xeb492000, but 16 bytes outside the
stack have been read.

Fix it by adding bounds checks.

<content type='text'>
Updates to the Generic Timer architecture allow ID_PFR1.GenTimer to
have values other than 0 or 1 while still preserving backward
compatibility. At the moment, Linux is quite strict in the way it
handles this field at early boot and will not configure arch timer if
it doesn't find the value 1.

Since here use ubfx for arch timer version extraction (hyb-stub build
with -march=armv7-a, so it is safe)

To help backports (even though the code was correct at the time of writing)
