Merge tag 'gpio-v4.9-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio
Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.9 series:
Subsystem improvements:
- do away with the last users of the obsolete Kconfig options
ARCH_REQUIRE_GPIOLIB and ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB (the latter
always sounded like an item on a wishlist to Santa Claus to me). We
can now select GPIOLIB and be done with it, for all archs. After
some struggle it even work on UM. Not that it has GPIO, but if it
wants to, it can select the library.
- continued efforts to make drivers properly either tristate or bool.
- introduce a warning for drivers assigning default triggers to their
irqchip lines when probed from device tree, so we find and fix
these ambigous drivers. It is agreed that in the OF config path,
the device tree defines trigger characteristics.
- the same warning, mutatis mutandis, for ACPI-probed GPIO irqchips.
- we introduce the ability to mark certain IRQ lines as "unusable" as
they can be taken by BIOS/firmware, unrouted in silicon and
generally nasty if you use them, and such things. This is put to
good use in the STMPE driver and also in the Cherryview pin control
driver.
- a new "mockup" virtual GPIO device that can be used for testing.
The plan is to add unit tests under tools/* for exercising this
device and verify that the kernel code paths are working as they
should.
- make memory-mapped I/O-drivers depend on HAS_IOMEM. This was
implicit all the time, but when people started building UM with
allyesconfig or allmodconfig it exploded in their face.
- move some stray bits of device tree and ACPI HW description
callbacks down into their respective implementation silo. These
were causing issues when compiling on !HAS_IOMEM as well, so now
eventually UM compiles the GPIOLIB library if it wants to.
New drivers:
- new driver for the Aspeed GPIO front-end companion to the pin
controller merged through the pin control tree.
- new driver for the LP873x PMIC GPIO portions.
- new driver for Technologic Systems' I2C FPGA GPIO such as TS4900,
TS-7970, TS-7990 and TS-4100.
- new driver for the Broadcom BCM63xx series including BCM6338 and
BCM6345.
- new driver for the Intel WhiskeyCove PMIC GPIO.
- new driver for the Allwinner AXP209 PMIC GPIO portions.
- new driver for Diamond Systems 48 line GPIO-MM, another of these
port-mapped I/O expansion cards.
- support the STMicroelectronics STMPE1600 variant in the STMPE
driver.
Driver improvements:
- the STMPE driver now supports rising/falling edge detection
properly for IRQs.
- the PCA954x will now fetch and enable its VCC regulator properly.
- major rework of the PCA953x driver with the goal of eventually
switching it over to use regmap and thus modernize it even more.
- switch the IOP driver to use the generic MMIO GPIO library.
- move the ages old HTC EGPIO (extended GPIO) GPIO expander driver
over to this subsystem from MFD, achieveing some separation of
concerns"

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet: "This is the documentation update pull for the 4.9 merge window. The Sphinx transition is still creating a fair amount of work. Here we have a number of fixes and, importantly, a proper PDF output solution, thanks to Jani Nikula, Mauro Carvalho Chehab and Markus Heiser. I've started a couple of new books: a driver API book (based on the old device-drivers.tmpl) and a development tools book. Both are meant to show how we can integrate together our existing documentation into a more coherent and accessible whole. It involves moving some stuff around and formatting changes, but, I think, the results are worth it. The good news is that most of our existing Documentation/*.txt files are *almost* in RST format already; the amount of messing around required is minimal.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"It's a bit all over the place this time with no "killer feature" to
speak of. Support for mismatched cache line sizes should help people
seeing whacky JIT failures on some SoCs, and the big.LITTLE perf

are cleanups.

workaround is acked by Russell, the DT/OF bits are acked by Rob, the
arch_timer clocksource changes acked by Marc, CPU hotplug by tglx and
jump_label by Peter (all CC'd).

- Support for execute-only page permissions
- Support for hibernate and DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
- Support for heterogeneous systems with mismatches cache line sizes
- Errata workarounds (A53 843419 update and QorIQ A-008585 timer bug)
- arm64 PMU perf updates, including cpumasks for heterogeneous systems
- Set UTS_MACHINE for building rpm packages

gpio/mockup: add virtual gpio device
This patch add basic structure of a virtual gpio device(gpio-mockup) for testing gpio subsystem. The tester could manipulate such device through userspace(sysfs or char device) and check the result from debugfs.

arm64: arch_timer: Work around QorIQ Erratum A-008585
Erratum A-008585 says that the ARM generic timer counter "has the potential to contain an erroneous value for a small number of core clock cycles every time the timer value changes". Accesses to TVAL (both read and write) are also affected due to the implicit counter read. Accesses to CVAL are not affected. The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads return the same value. Writes to TVAL are replaced with an equivalent write to CVAL. The workaround is to reread TVAL and count registers until successive reads return the same value, and when writing TVAL to retry until counter reads before and after the write return the same value. The workaround is enabled if the fsl,erratum-a008585 property is found in the timer node in the device tree. This can be overridden with the clocksource.arm_arch_timer.fsl-a008585 boot parameter, which allows KVM users to enable the workaround until a mechanism is implemented to automatically communicate this information. This erratum can be found on LS1043A and LS2080A.

docs: kernel-parameter: Improve the description of nr_cpus and maxcpus
From the old description people still can't get what's the exact difference between nr_cpus and maxcpus. Especially in kdump kernel nr_cpus is always suggested if it's implemented in the ARCH. The reason is nr_cpus is used to limit the max number of possible cpu in system, the sum of already plugged cpus and hot plug cpus can't exceed its value. However maxcpus is used to limit how many cpus are allowed to be brought up during bootup. Signed-off-by: Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> |

PCI: Update "pci=resource_alignment" documentation
Some uio based PCI drivers, e.g., uio_cif, do not work if the assigned PCI memory resources are not page aligned. By using the kernel option "pci=resource_alignment=<align>@<bus>:<slot>.<func>" it is possible to request page alignment for memory resources of devices. However, this is cumbersome when using several devices, and the bus/slot/func addresses may change if devices are added to or removed from the system. Extend the "pci=resource_alignment" option so we can specify the relevant devices via PCI vendor, device, subvendor, and subdevice IDs. The specification of the devices via IDs is indicated by a leading string "pci:" as argument to "pci=resource_alignment". The format of the specification is pci:<vendor>:<device>[:<subvendor>:<subdevice>] Examples: pci=resource_alignment=4096@pci:8086:9c22:103c:198f pci=resource_alignment=pci:8086:9c22 # defaults to PAGE_SIZE align [bhelgaas: changelog, use actual vendor/device IDs in examples] Signed-off-by: Mathias Koehrer <mathias.koehrer@etas.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> |

modules: Add kernel parameter to blacklist modules
Blacklisting a module in linux has long been a problem. The current procedure is to use rd.blacklist=module_name, however, that doesn't cover the case after the initramfs and before a boot prompt (where one is supposed to use /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf to blacklist runtime loading). Using rd.shell to get an early prompt is hit-or-miss, and doesn't cover all situations AFAICT. This patch adds this functionality of permanently blacklisting a module by its name via the kernel parameter module_blacklist=module_name.

printk: add kernel parameter to control writes to /dev/kmsg
Add a "printk.devkmsg" kernel command line parameter which controls how userspace writes into /dev/kmsg. It has three options: * ratelimit - ratelimit logging from userspace. * on - unlimited logging from userspace * off - logging from userspace gets ignored The default setting is to ratelimit the messages written to it. This changes the kernel default setting of "on" to "ratelimit" and we do that because we want to keep userspace spamming /dev/kmsg to sane levels. This is especially moot when a small kernel log buffer wraps around and messages get lost. So the ratelimiting setting should be a sane setting where kernel messages should have a bit higher chance of survival from all the spamming. It additionally does not limit logging to /dev/kmsg while the system is booting if we haven't disabled it on the command line. Furthermore, we can control the logging from a lower priority sysctl interface - kernel.printk_devkmsg. That interface will succeed only if printk.devkmsg *hasn't* been supplied on the command line. If it has, then printk.devkmsg is a one-time setting which remains for the duration of the system lifetime. This "locking" of the setting is to prevent userspace from changing the logging on us through sysctl(2). This patch is based on previous patches from Linus and Steven.

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The new feaures here are the support for ACPI overlays (allowing ACPI
tables to be loaded at any time from EFI variables or via configfs)
and the LPI (Low-Power Idle) support. Also notable is the ACPI-based
NUMA support for ARM64.
Apart from that we have two new drivers, for the DPTF (Dynamic Power
and Thermal Framework) power participant device and for the Intel
Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC, some more PMIC-related changes, support for
the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and support for
platform-initiated graceful shutdown.
Plus two new pieces of documentation and usual assorted fixes and
cleanups in quite a few places.
Specifics:
- Support for ACPI SSDT overlays allowing Secondary System
Description Tables (SSDTs) to be loaded at any time from EFI
variables or via configfs (Octavian Purdila, Mika Westerberg).
- Support for the ACPI LPI (Low-Power Idle) feature introduced in
ACPI 6.0 and allowing processor idle states to be represented in
ACPI tables in a hierarchical way (with the help of Processor
Container objects) and support for ACPI idle states management on
ARM64, based on LPI (Sudeep Holla).
- General improvements of ACPI support for NUMA and ARM64 support for
ACPI-based NUMA (Hanjun Guo, David Daney, Robert Richter).
- General improvements of the ACPI table upgrade mechanism and ARM64
support for that feature (Aleksey Makarov, Jon Masters).
- Support for the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and
improvements of kernel messages printed by the error injection code
(Huang Ying, Borislav Petkov).
- New driver for the Intel Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC operation region
and support for the REGS operation region on Broxton, PMIC code
cleanups (Bin Gao, Felipe Balbi, Paul Gortmaker).
- New driver for the power participant device which is part of the
Dynamic Power and Thermal Framework (DPTF) and DPTF-related code
reorganization (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Support for the platform-initiated graceful shutdown feature
introduced in ACPI 6.1 (Prashanth Prakash).
- ACPI button driver update related to lid input events generated
automatically on initialization and system resume that have been
problematic for some time (Lv Zheng).
- ACPI EC driver cleanups (Lv Zheng).
- Documentation of the ACPICA release automation process and the
in-kernel ACPI AML debugger (Lv Zheng).
- New blacklist entry and two fixes for the ACPI backlight driver
(Alex Hung, Arvind Yadav, Ralf Gerbig).
- Cleanups of the ACPI pci_slot driver (Joe Perches, Paul Gortmaker).
- ACPI CPPC code changes to make it more robust against possible
defects in ACPI tables and new symbol definitions for PCC (Hoan
Tran).
- System reboot code modification to execute the ACPI _PTS (Prepare
To Sleep) method in addition to _TTS (Ocean He).
- ACPICA-related change to carry out lock ordering checks in ACPICA
if ACPICA debug is enabled in the kernel (Lv Zheng).
- Assorted minor fixes and cleanups (Andy Shevchenko, Baoquan He,
Bhaktipriya Shridhar, Paul Gortmaker, Rafael Wysocki)"

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"Again, the majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem, but
there are no big features this time. The cpufreq changes that stand
out somewhat are the governor interface rework and improvements
related to the handling of frequency tables. Apart from those, there
are fixes and new device/CPU IDs in drivers, cleanups and an
improvement of the new schedutil governor.
Next, there are some changes in the hibernation core, including a fix
for a nasty problem related to the MONITOR/MWAIT usage by CPU offline
during resume from hibernation, a few core improvements related to
memory management during resume, a couple of additional debug features
and cleanups.
Finally, we have some fixes and cleanups in the devfreq subsystem,
generic power domains framework improvements related to system
suspend/resume, support for some new chips in intel_idle and in the
power capping RAPL driver, a new version of the AnalyzeSuspend utility
and some assorted fixes and cleanups.
Specifics:
- Rework the cpufreq governor interface to make it more
straightforward and modify the conservative governor to avoid using
transition notifications (Rafael Wysocki).
- Rework the handling of frequency tables by the cpufreq core to make
it more efficient (Viresh Kumar).
- Modify the schedutil governor to reduce the number of wakeups it
causes to occur in cases when the CPU frequency doesn't need to be
changed (Steve Muckle, Viresh Kumar).
- Fix some minor issues and clean up code in the cpufreq core and
governors (Rafael Wysocki, Viresh Kumar).
- Add Intel Broxton support to the intel_pstate driver (Srinivas
Pandruvada).
- Fix problems related to the config TDP feature and to the validity
of the MSR_HWP_INTERRUPT register in intel_pstate (Jan Kiszka,
Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Make intel_pstate update the cpu_frequency tracepoint even if the
frequency doesn't change to avoid confusing powertop (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Clean up the usage of __init/__initdata in intel_pstate, mark some
of its internal variables as __read_mostly and drop an unused
structure element from it (Jisheng Zhang, Carsten Emde).
- Clean up the usage of some duplicate MSR symbols in intel_pstate
and turbostat (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Update/fix the powernv, s3c24xx and mvebu cpufreq drivers (Akshay
Adiga, Viresh Kumar, Ben Dooks).
- Fix a regression (introduced during the 4.5 cycle) in the
pcc-cpufreq driver by reverting the problematic commit (Andreas
Herrmann).
- Add support for Intel Denverton to intel_idle, clean up Broxton
support in it and make it explicitly non-modular (Jacob Pan, Jan
Beulich, Paul Gortmaker).
- Add support for Denverton and Ivy Bridge server to the Intel RAPL
power capping driver and make it more careful about the handing of
MSRs that may not be present (Jacob Pan, Xiaolong Wang).
- Fix resume from hibernation on x86-64 by making the CPU offline
during resume avoid using MONITOR/MWAIT in the "play dead" loop
which may lead to an inadvertent "revival" of a "dead" CPU and a
page fault leading to a kernel crash from it (Rafael Wysocki).
- Make memory management during resume from hibernation more
straightforward (Rafael Wysocki).
- Add debug features that should help to detect problems related to
hibernation and resume from it (Rafael Wysocki, Chen Yu).
- Clean up hibernation core somewhat (Rafael Wysocki).
- Prevent KASAN from instrumenting the hibernation core which leads
to large numbers of false-positives from it (James Morse).
- Prevent PM (hibernate and suspend) notifiers from being called
during the cleanup phase if they have not been called during the
corresponding preparation phase which is possible if one of the
other notifiers returns an error at that time (Lianwei Wang).
- Improve suspend-related debug printout in the tasks freezer and
clean up suspend-related console handling (Roger Lu, Borislav
Petkov).
- Update the AnalyzeSuspend script in the kernel sources to version
4.2 (Todd Brandt).
- Modify the generic power domains framework to make it handle system
suspend/resume better (Ulf Hansson).
- Make the runtime PM framework avoid resuming devices synchronously
when user space changes the runtime PM settings for them and
improve its error reporting (Rafael Wysocki, Linus Walleij).
- Fix error paths in devfreq drivers (exynos, exynos-ppmu,
exynos-bus) and in the core, make some devfreq code explicitly
non-modular and change some of it into tristate (Bartlomiej
Zolnierkiewicz, Peter Chen, Paul Gortmaker).
- Add DT support to the generic PM clocks management code and make it
export some more symbols (Jon Hunter, Paul Gortmaker).
- Make the PCI PM core code slightly more robust against possible
driver errors (Andy Shevchenko).
- Make it possible to change DESTDIR and PREFIX in turbostat (Andy
Shevchenko)"

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"Some big changes this month, headlined by the addition of a new
formatted documentation mechanism based on the Sphinx system.
The objectives here are to make it easier to create better-integrated
(and more attractive) documents while (eventually) dumping our
one-of-a-kind, cobbled-together system for something that is widely
used and maintained by others. There's a fair amount of information
what's being done, why, and how to use it in:
https://lwn.net/Articles/692704/
https://lwn.net/Articles/692705/
Closer to home, Documentation/kernel-documentation.rst describes how
it works.
For now, the new system exists alongside the old one; you should soon
see the GPU documentation converted over in the DRM pull and some
significant media conversion work as well. Once all the docs have
been moved over and we're convinced that the rough edges (of which are
are a few) have been smoothed over, the DocBook-based stuff should go
away.
Primary credit is to Jani Nikula for doing the heavy lifting to make
this stuff actually work; there has also been notable effort from
Markus Heiser, Daniel Vetter, and Mauro Carvalho Chehab.
Expect a couple of conflicts on the new index.rst file over the course
of the merge window; they are trivially resolvable. That file may be
a bit of a conflict magnet in the short term, but I don't expect that
situation to last for any real length of time.
Beyond that, of course, we have the usual collection of tweaks,
updates, and typo fixes"

Pull s390 updates from Martin Schwidefsky:
"There are a couple of new things for s390 with this merge request:
- a new scheduling domain "drawer" is added to reflect the unusual

- the new crc-32 checksum crypto module uses the vector-galois-field
multiply and sum SIMD instruction to speed up crc-32 and crc-32c.
- proper __ro_after_init support, this requires RO_AFTER_INIT_DATA in
the generic vmlinux.lds linker script definitions.
- kcov instrumentation support. A prerequisite for that is the
inline assembly basic block cleanup, which is the reason for the
net/iucv/iucv.c change.
- support for 2GB pages is added to the hugetlbfs backend.
Then there are two removals:
- the oprofile hardware sampling support is dead code and is removed.
The oprofile user space uses the perf interface nowadays.
- the ETR clock synchronization is removed, this has been superseeded
be the STP clock synchronization. And it always has been
"interesting" code..
And the usual bug fixes and cleanups"

PCI: Allow additional bus numbers for hotplug bridges
A user may hot add a switch requiring more than one bus to enumerate. This previously required a system reboot if BIOS did not sufficiently pad the bus resource, which they frequently don't do. Add a kernel parameter so a user can specify the minimum number of bus numbers to reserve for a hotplug bridge's subordinate buses so rebooting won't be necessary. The default is 1, which is equivalent to previous behavior. Signed-off-by: Keith Busch <keith.busch@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> |

PM / hibernate: Image data protection during restoration
Make it possible to protect all pages holding image data during hibernate image restoration by setting them read-only (so as to catch attempts to write to those pages after image data have been stored in them). This adds overhead to image restoration code (it may cause large page mappings to be split as a result of page flags changes) and the errors it protects against should never happen in theory, so the feature is only active after passing hibernate=protect_image to the command line of the restore kernel. Also it only is built if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> |

efi / ACPI: load SSTDs from EFI variables
This patch allows SSDTs to be loaded from EFI variables. It works by specifying the EFI variable name containing the SSDT to be loaded. All variables with the same name (regardless of the vendor GUID) will be loaded. Note that we can't use acpi_install_table and we must rely on the dynamic ACPI table loading and bus re-scanning mechanisms. That is because I2C/SPI controllers are initialized earlier then the EFI subsystems and all I2C/SPI ACPI devices are enumerated when the I2C/SPI controllers are initialized.

ACPI / APEI: Add Boot Error Record Table (BERT) support
ACPI/APEI is designed to verifiy/report H/W errors, like Corrected Error(CE) and Uncorrected Error(UC). It contains four tables: HEST, ERST, EINJ and BERT. The first three tables have been merged for a long time, but because of lacking BIOS support for BERT, the support for BERT is pending until now. Recently on ARM 64 platform it is has been supported. So here we come. Under normal circumstances, when a hardware error occurs, kernel will be notified via NMI, MCE or some other method, then kernel will process the error condition, report it, and recover it if possible. But sometime, the situation is so bad, so that firmware may choose to reset directly without notifying Linux kernel. Linux kernel can use the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) to get the un-notified hardware errors that occurred in a previous boot. In this patch, the error information is reported via printk. For more information about BERT, please refer to ACPI Specification version 6.0, section 18.3.1: http://www.uefi.org/sites/default/files/resources/ACPI_6.0.pdf The following log is a BERT record after system reboot because of hitting a fatal memory error: BERT: Error records from previous boot: [Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action [Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected [Hardware Error]: Error 0, type: recoverable [Hardware Error]: section_type: memory error [Hardware Error]: error_status: 0x0000000000000400 [Hardware Error]: physical_address: 0xffffffffffffffff [Hardware Error]: card: 1 module: 2 bank: 3 row: 1 column: 2 bit_position: 5 [Hardware Error]: error_type: 2, single-bit ECC [Tomasz Nowicki: Clear error status at the end of error handling] [Tony: Applied some cleanups suggested by Fu Wei] [Fu Wei: delete EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(bert_disable), improve the code] Signed-off-by: Huang Ying <ying.huang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tomasz Nowicki <tomasz.nowicki@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Chen, Gong <gong.chen@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Jonathan (Zhixiong) Zhang <zjzhang@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Fu Wei <fu.wei@linaro.org> Tested-by: Tyler Baicar <tbaicar@codeaurora.org> Reviewed-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Control the evtstrm via the cmdline
Disabling the eventstream can be useful for both remotely debugging a
deployed production system and development of code using WFE-based
polling loops. Whilst this can currently be controlled via a Kconfig
option (CONFIG_ARM_ARCH_TIMER_EVTSTREAM), it's often desirable to toggle
the feature on the command line, so this patch adds a new command-line
option ("clocksource.arm_arch_timer.evtstrm") to do just that. The
default behaviour is determined based on CONFIG_ARM_ARCH_TIMER_EVTSTREAM.

s390/oprofile: remove hardware sampler support
Remove hardware sampler support from oprofile module. The oprofile user space utilty has been switched to use the kernel perf interface, for which we also provide hardware sampling support. In addition the hardware sampling support is also slightly broken: it supports only 16 bits for the pid and therefore would generate wrong results on machines which have a pid >64k. Also the pt_regs structure which was passed to oprofile common code cannot necessarily be used to generate sane backtraces, since the task(s) in question may run while the samples are fed to oprofile. So the result would be more or less random. However given that the only user space tools switched to the perf interface already four years ago the hardware sampler code seems to be unused code, and therefore it should be reasonable to remove it. The timer based oprofile support continues to work.

PCI: Extending pci=resource_alignment to specify device/vendor IDs
Some uio-based PCI drivers, e.g., uio_cif do not work if the assigned PCI memory resources are not page aligned. By using the kernel option "pci=resource_alignment" it is possible to force single PCI boards to use page alignment for their memory resources. However, this is fairly cumbersome if several of these boards are in use as the specification of the cards has to be done via PCI bus/slot/function number which might change, e.g., by adding another board. Extend the kernel option "pci=resource_alignment" to allow specification of relevant devices via PCI device/vendor (and subdevice/subvendor) IDs. The specification of the devices via device/vendor is indicated by a leading string "pci:" as argument to "pci=resource_alignment". The format of the specification is pci:<vendor>:<device>[:<subvendor>:<subdevice>] Signed-off-by: Mathias Koehrer <mathias.koehrer@etas.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> |

PCI: Put PCIe ports into D3 during suspend
Currently the Linux PCI core does not touch power state of PCI bridges and
PCIe ports when system suspend is entered. Leaving them in D0 consumes
power unnecessarily and may prevent the CPU from entering deeper C-states.
With recent PCIe hardware we can power down the ports to save power given
that we take into account few restrictions:
- The PCIe port hardware is recent enough, starting from 2015.
- Devices connected to PCIe ports are effectively in D3cold once the port
is transitioned to D3 (the config space is not accessible anymore and
the link may be powered down).
- Devices behind the PCIe port need to be allowed to transition to D3cold
and back. There is a way both drivers and userspace can forbid this.
- If the device behind the PCIe port is capable of waking the system it
needs to be able to do so from D3cold.
This patch adds a new flag to struct pci_device called 'bridge_d3'. This
flag is set and cleared by the PCI core whenever there is a change in power
management state of any of the devices behind the PCIe port. When system
later on is suspended we only need to check this flag and if it is true
transition the port to D3 otherwise we leave it in D0.
Also provide override mechanism via command line parameter
"pcie_port_pm=[off|force]" that can be used to disable or enable the
feature regardless of the BIOS manufacturing date.

memory_hotplug: introduce memhp_default_state= command line parameter
CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG_DEFAULT_ONLINE specifies the default value for the memory hotplug onlining policy. Add a command line parameter to make it possible to override the default. It may come handy for debug and testing purposes. Signed-off-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com> Cc: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net> Cc: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com> Cc: "Kirill A.
