sm8250 faces the same problem with its Energy Model as sdm845. The energy
cost of LITTLE cores is reported to be higher than medium or big cores
EM computes the energy with formula:
energy = OPP's cost / maximum cpu capacity * utilization
On v6.4-rc6 we have:
max capacity of CPU0 = 284
capacity of CPU0's OPP(1612800 Hz) = 253
cost of CPU0's OPP(1612800 Hz) = 191704
max capacity of CPU4 = 871
capacity of CPU4's OPP(710400 Hz) = 255
cost of CPU4's OPP(710400 Hz) = 343217
Both OPPs have almost the same compute capacity but the estimated energy
per unit of utilization will be estimated to:
energy CPU0 = 191704 / 284 * 1 = 675
energy CPU4 = 343217 / 871 * 1 = 394
EM estimates that little CPU0 will consume 71% more than medium CPU4 for
the same compute capacity. According to [1], little consumes 25% less than
medium core for Coremark benchmark at those OPPs for the same duration.
Set the dynamic-power-coefficient of CPU0-3 to 105 to fix the energy model
for little CPUs.

The Linux typec_mux implementation required that a property named "svid"
was present in the remote node of the of_graph for a match to be found.
With the introduction of commit '4aebc4f89f00 ("usb: typec: mux: Clean up
mux_fwnode_match()")', the implementation is aligned with the binding
and this property can be dropped - and the associated DeviceTree
validation warning resolved.

We just sorted the entries and fields last release, so just out of a
perverse sense of curiosity, I decided to see if we can keep things
ordered for even just one release.
The answer is "No. No we cannot".
I suggest that all kernel developers will need weekly training sessions,
involving a lot of Big Bird and Sesame Street. And at the yearly
maintainer summit, we will all sing the alphabet song together.
I doubt I will keep doing this. At some point "perverse sense of
curiosity" turns into just a cold dark place filled with sadness and
despair.

"A single fix for the mechanism to park CPUs with an INIT IPI.
On shutdown or kexec, the kernel tries to park the non-boot CPUs with

If the CPU which panics is not the boot CPU then it sends an INIT IPI
to the boot CPU which resets the machine.
Prevent this by validating that the CPU which runs the stop mechanism
is the boot CPU. If not, leave the other CPUs in HLT"

fork: lock VMAs of the parent process when forking
When forking a child process, the parent write-protects anonymous pages
and COW-shares them with the child being forked using copy_present_pte().
We must not take any concurrent page faults on the source vma's as they
are being processed, as we expect both the vma and the pte's behind it
to be stable. For example, the anon_vma_fork() expects the parents
vma->anon_vma to not change during the vma copy.
A concurrent page fault on a page newly marked read-only by the page
copy might trigger wp_page_copy() and a anon_vma_prepare(vma) on the
source vma, defeating the anon_vma_clone() that wasn't done because the
parent vma originally didn't have an anon_vma, but we now might end up
copying a pte entry for a page that has one.
Before the per-vma lock based changes, the mmap_lock guaranteed
exclusion with concurrent page faults. But now we need to do a
vma_start_write() to make sure no concurrent faults happen on this vma
while it is being processed.
This fix can potentially regress some fork-heavy workloads. Kernel
build time did not show noticeable regression on a 56-core machine while
a stress test mapping 10000 VMAs and forking 5000 times in a tight loop
shows ~5% regression. If such fork time regression is unacceptable,
disabling CONFIG_PER_VMA_LOCK should restore its performance. Further
optimizations are possible if this regression proves to be problematic.

mmap_region adds a newly created VMA into VMA tree and might modify it
afterwards before dropping the mmap_lock. This poses a problem for page
faults handled under per-VMA locks because they don't take the mmap_lock
and can stumble on this VMA while it's still being modified. Currently
this does not pose a problem since post-addition modifications are done
only for file-backed VMAs, which are not handled under per-VMA lock.
However, once support for handling file-backed page faults with per-VMA
locks is added, this will become a race.
Fix this by write-locking the VMA before inserting it into the VMA tree.
Other places where a new VMA is added into VMA tree do not modify it
after the insertion, so do not need the same locking.

With recent changes necessitating mmap_lock to be held for write while
expanding a stack, per-VMA locks should follow the same rules and be
write-locked to prevent page faults into the VMA being expanded. Add
the necessary locking.
