c54e4747be kernel: MIPS: Add CPU option reporting to /proc/cpuinfo
Many MIPS CPUs have optional CPU features which are not activates for
all CPU cores. Print the CPU options which are implemented in the core
in /proc/cpuinfo. This makes it possible to see what features are
supported and which are not supported. This should cover all standard
MIPS extensions, before it only printed information about the main MIPS
ASEs.

359f5e5390 kernel: mtd: add support for EN25QH64 in spi-nor.c
The Eon EN25QH64 is a 64 Mbit SPI NOR flash memory chip. Its 32, 128 and
256 Mbits siblings are supported upstream but this particular size wasn't.
This commit includes patches for kernels 4.14 and 4.19.

Tested on a COMFAST CF-E120A v3 (ath79).

cb0f39c9cd kernel: fix f2fs on big endian machines
The WD MyBook Live SquashFS images didn't work anymore due to
a upstream regression in f2fs commit: 0cfe75c5b01199
("f2fs: enhance sanity_check_raw_super() to avoid potential overflows")
that got backported to 4.14.86 and landed in 4.18.

by Martin Blumenstingl:
|Treat "block_count" from struct f2fs_super_block as 64-bit little endian
|value in sanity_check_raw_super() because struct f2fs_super_block
|declares "block_count" as "__le64".
|
|This fixes a bug where the superblock validation fails on big endian
|devices with the following error:
|  F2FS-fs (sda1): Wrong segment_count / block_count (61439 > 0)
|  F2FS-fs (sda1): Can't find valid F2FS filesystem in 1th superblock
|  F2FS-fs (sda1): Wrong segment_count / block_count (61439 > 0)
|  F2FS-fs (sda1): Can't find valid F2FS filesystem in 2th superblock
|As result of this the partition cannot be mounted.
|
|With this patch applied the superblock validation works fine and the
|partition can be mounted again:
|  F2FS-fs (sda1): Mounted with checkpoint version = 7c84
|
|My little endian x86-64 hardware was able to mount the partition without
|this fix.
|To confirm that mounting f2fs filesystems works on big endian machines
|again I tested this on a 32-bit MIPS big endian (lantiq) device.

Hopefully, this will do until Martin's patch moved through upstream
to -stable.

8ff0dd57bf kernel: drop MIPS fix cache flushing for highmem pages
This patch, in a variety of forms, has been around since beginning 2016
as e756c2bb07, ending up in present form 0aa6c7df60 (kernel 4.4.13 bump)
and carried forward ever since.

There have been a number of MIPS kernel memory handling changes since,
including VDSO fixes that meant openwrt patches have been dropped with
no apparent fallout.

Simple tests (ntfs-3g) on a HIGHMEM 512MB mt7621 device have not turned
up data corruption issues which would otherwise be expected.  Similarly
running on other MIPS based devices for the past 2 months hasn't turned
up anything obvious to retain this out of tree patch.

With thanks to Rosen Penev for testing on the known 'highmem' device and
Felix Fietkau for testing advice.  Not putting acked-by as it's my fault
if it breaks :-)

9850e42284 jffs2: Fix use of uninitialized delayed_work, lockdep breakage
I've sent this one upstream.  This patch is critical if you want to run
with "prove lock correctness" (lockdep) and you happen to have certain

behaviour, but being zeroed it does not appear to have actually broken
anything other than the lockdep engine.

aa3b6a08c5 kernel: Replace ledtrig-netdev with upstream backport

own version with the patch based on the upstream version.
This will remove the ledtrig-netdev support from kernel 3.18, because I
not want to spend time on backporting it to 3.18. This will make it
easier to use the upstream version with kernel 4.19, by just not

f98fde2db4 Revert "kernel: use add_mtd_partitions() helper when using OpenWrt parsers"
This reverts commit 7e88753ace.

Using subpartitions (hierarchical layout) resulted in calling MTD ops of
parent partition instead of master device ops. That was expected and
should work but testing revealed some bugs.

Apparently the way MTD_ERASE_PARTIAL is implemented in the OpenWrt
breaks something and using parent partition ops triggers using that
code.

On SmartRG SR400ac it was resulting in:
[  225.487519] jffs2: Erase at 0x01ac0000 failed immediately: errno -22
on the second boot (for some reason erasing was starting over) and it
was breaking flash access in a long term.

7e88753ace kernel: use add_mtd_partitions() helper when using OpenWrt parsers
This helper uses hierarchical partitions layout following the way
upstream parsers work. It's closer to what we should use when mainlining
our solutions. It also doesn't require hacky casting of struct
mtd_partition to the const.

THIS WILL AFFECT KERNEL PRINTING PARTITIONS IN THE LOG

Something like:
[    3.930158] 0x0000004e0000-0x000001fb0000 : "rootfs_data"
will get replaced by:
[    3.907338] Creating 1 MTD partitions on "rootfs":
[    3.912142] 0x00000031d400-0x000001ded400 : "rootfs_data"

It's important to understand that "rootfs_data" in above example is a
*subpartition* of the "rootfs" now. To get absolute addresses (e.g. for
some debugging purposes) one has to add them to the "rootfs", e.g.
[    3.912548] 0x0000001c2c00-0x000001fb0000 : "rootfs"

(0x1c2c00 + 0x31d400 = 0x4e0000)

f57806b56e kernel: generic: Fix nftables inet table breakage
Commit b7265c59ab ("kernel: backport a series of netfilter cleanup
patches to 4.14") added patch 302-netfilter-nf_tables_inet-don-t-use-
multihook-infrast.patch.  That patch switches the netfilter core in the
kernel to use the new native NFPROTO_INET support.  Unfortunately, the
new native NFPROTO_INET support does not exist in 4.14 and was not
backported along with this patchset.  As such, nftables inet tables never
see any traffic.

As an example the following nft counter rule should increment for every
packet coming into the box, but never will:

nft add table inet foo
nft add chain inet foo bar { type filter hook input priority 0\; }
nft add rule inet foo bar counter

This commit pulls in the required backport patches to add the new
native NFPROTO_INET support, and thus restore nftables inet table
functionality.

3370e10495 kernel: add driver for virtual mtd_concat devices
Some systems require multiple flash chips to be concatenated and read as
a single mtd device. The ar71xx target provides custom code to create
such mtdconcat devices. When porting devices to ath79, however, there is
no way to create such devices from within the device tree.

This commit adds a driver for creating virtual mtd-concat devices to the
ath79 target. Nodes must have a compatible = "virtual,mtd-concat" line,
and define a list of devices to concat in the 'devices' property,
for example:

flash {
	compatible = "virtual,mtd-concat";

	devices = <&flash0 &flash1>;
};

The driver is added to the very end of the mtd Makefile to increase the
likelyhood of all child devices already being loaded at the time of
probing, preventing unnecessary deferred probes which might in turn
cause other problems (like failure to load MAC addresses from art because
the partitions are not loaded yet).

ef025e6417 kernel: add pending e1000e fixes
The previous round of fixes for the 82574 chip cause an issue with
emulated e1000e devices in VMware ESXi 6.5. It also contains changes
that are not strictly necessary. These patches fix the issues introduced
in the previous series, revert the unnecessary changes to avoid
unforeseen fallout, and avoid a case where interrupts can be missed.

The final two patches of this series are already in the kernel, so no
need to include them here.

a2eaaaaf4b kernel: switch compatible property for RedBoot DT binding
This changes the DT binding's compatible property to
"ecoscentric,redboot-fis-partitions", removing the existing reference to
Red Hat.

Per the documentation hosted at eCosCentric's website, eCosCentric is
RedBoot's sole commercial maintainer since 2002, and the project has
been under the stewardship of the Free Software Foundation since 2008.

This also updates the property in the Inventel Livebox 1 .dts, the
binding's only current user.

aa5838adb7 kernel: generic: fix problem with w1-gpio-custom
In boards with fdt is impossible to use kmod-w1-gpio-custom.
w1-gpio-custom create platform structure for w1-gpio module,
but if board use fdt, data is ignored in w1-gpio probe.

This workaround fix the problem.

2a598bbaa3 kernel: backport mtd support for subpartitions in DT
This is a new & warm feature that allows nesting partiitons in DT and
mixing their types (e.g. static vs. dynamic). It's very useful for
boards that have most partitions static but some of them require extra
parsing (e.g. a "firmware" partition).

It's required to successfully backport support for new devices using
that new syntax in their DT files.

Since brcm63xx has a custom alternative patch the upstream one is being
reverted for it. The plan is to make brcm63xx use the upstream
implementation.

3716b5e4e6 kernel: don't auto attach ubi on read error
With a10a204aab ("kernel: make ubi auto-attach check for a tar file
magic") the check for the magic was added without considering a failing
mtd_read(). If the read fails, no check is done and the mount code is
called straight away.

Failing with an error message for such cases seems to me the cleaner way,
as it would allow to spot hidden/workaround issues.

0ac91d82ed kernel: handle bad blocks in ubi auto attach code
The first block(s) of the ubi mtd device might be bad. We need to take
care on our own to skip the bad block(s) and read the next one(s).

Don't treat recoverable read errors as fatal and check for the UBI magic
if the data of a block could be recovered using ECC or similar.
