The [vk][cmz]alloc(_node) family of functions return void
pointers which it's completely unnecessary/pointless to cast to
other pointer types since that happens implicitly.
This patch removes such casts from arch/x86.

It was removed in 65b770468e (tty-ldisc: turn ldisc user count into
a proper refcount), but we need to wait for last user to quit the
ldisc before we close it in tty_set_ldisc.
Otherwise weird things start to happen. There might be processes
waiting in tty_read->n_tty_read on tty->read_wait for input to appear
and at that moment, a change of ldisc is fatal. n_tty_close is called,
it frees read_buf and the waiting process is still in the middle of
reading and goes nuts after it is woken.
Previously we prevented close to happen when others are in ldisc ops
by tty_ldisc_wait_idle in tty_set_ldisc. But the commit above removed
that. So revoke the change and test whether there is 1 user (=we), and
allow the close then.
We can do that without ldisc/tty locks, because nobody else can open
the device due to TTY_LDISC_CHANGING bit set, so we in fact wait for
everybody to leave.
I don't understand why tty_ldisc_lock would be needed either when the
counter is an atomic variable, so this is a lockless
tty_ldisc_wait_idle.
On the other hand, if we fail to wait (timeout or signal), we have to
reenable the halted ldiscs, so we take ldisc lock and reuse the setup
path at the end of tty_set_ldisc.

There's a small window inside the flush_to_ldisc function,
where the tty is unlocked and calling ldisc's receive_buf
function. If in this window new buffer is added to the tty,
the processing might never leave the flush_to_ldisc function.
This scenario will hog the cpu, causing other tty processing
starving, and making it impossible to interface the computer
via tty.
I was able to exploit this via pty interface by sending only
control characters to the master input, causing the flush_to_ldisc
to be scheduled, but never actually generate any output.
To reproduce, please run multiple instances of following code.
- SNIP
#define _XOPEN_SOURCE
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int i, slave, master = getpt();
char buf[8192];
sprintf(buf, "%s", ptsname(master));
grantpt(master);
unlockpt(master);
slave = open(buf, O_RDWR);
if (slave < 0) {
perror("open slave failed");
return 1;
}
for(i = 0; i < sizeof(buf); i++)
buf[i] = rand() % 32;
while(1) {
write(master, buf, sizeof(buf));
}
return 0;
}

Unmap the rx buffer before mapping the new one in rtl8192_rx.
Failing to do so quickly exhausts the IOMMU memory during downloads:
[...] DMA: Out of SW-IOMMU space for 9100 bytes at device ...
Using "iommu=off mem=4g" also fixes the problem because
then pci_map_single does not allocate memory.
Tested on my personal laptop with a RTL8192E device. Without this
patch the kernel quickly runs out of IOMMU memory (downloading 5 MB

This fixes some places that dereference user pointers directly instead

Please especially check my changes to IOCTL_BCM_GET_CURRENT_STATUS. The
original code modified the struct which "arg" was pointing to. I think
this was a bug in the original code and that we only wanted to write to
the OutputBuffer. Also with the original code you could read as much
memory as you wanted so I had to put a cap on OutputLength. The only
value of OutputLength that makes sense is sizeof(LINK_STATE) so now if
OutputLength is not sizeof(LINK_STATE) it returns -EINVAL.

This silences all the sparse warnings in intel_sst_app_interface.c.
It was just a matter of adding __user annotations, I didn't find any
real bugs here. Quite a few of these were needed for stuff I added
earlier, sorry about that.
I removed a couple casts to (void *) that caused a warning like:
drivers/staging/intel_sst/intel_sst_app_interface.c:606:27:
warning: cast removes address space of expression
For example sst_drv_ctx->mailbox is already declared as
"void __iomem *mailbox" so casting it to void pointer isn't necessary
and it makes sparse complain because it removes the __user attribute.

This is another patch about copying data to the kernel before using it.
SNDRV_SST_STREAM_DECODE is sort of tricky because we need to do a
copy_from_user() that gives us another two pointers and we have copy
those. Those again give us some more pointers that we have to copy.
Besides those problems, the code had a stack overflow:
- struct snd_sst_buff_entry ibuf_temp[param->ibufs->entries],
- obuf_temp[param->obufs->entries];
param->ibufs->entries comes from the user.

This is another patch about making a copy of the data into kernel space
before using it. It is easy to trigger a kernel oops in the original
code. If you passed a NULL to SNDRV_SST_SET_TARGET_DEVICE then it
called BUG_ON(). And SNDRV_SST_DRIVER_INFO would let you write the
information to arbitrary memory locations which is a security violation.

This code dereferences user supplied pointers directly instead of doing
a copy_from_user(). Some kernel configs put user and kernel memory in
different address spaces so this code isn't portable. Also the user
memory could be swapped out or in this case the pointer could just be
NULL leading to an oops.
Another thing is that it makes permission tests like this sort of
meaningless.
if (minor == STREAM_MODULE && rec_mute->stream_id == 0) {
retval = -EPERM;
break;
}
The user could set stream_id to 1 for the test and then change it later.

dst_dev_event() scans a garbage dst list that might be feeded by various
network notifiers at device dismantle time.
Its important to call dst_dev_event() after other notifiers, or we might
enter the infamous msleep(250) in netdev_wait_allrefs(), and wait one
second before calling again call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_UNREGISTER,
dev) to properly remove last device references.
Use priority -10 to let dst_dev_notifier be called after other network
notifiers (they have the default 0 priority)

Note: there's another successful return path from mprotect_fixup() if old
