      Hikey960: Change CPU standby state for WFI · 4c8a5787
      Leo Yan authored
      
      
      At early time, the CPU CA73 retention state has been supported on
      Hikey960.  Later we found the system has the hang issue and for
      resolving this issue Hisilicon released new MCU firmware, but
      unfortunately the new MCU firmware has side effect and results in the
      CA73 CPU cannot really enter retention state and roll back to WFI state.
      
      After discussion we cannot see the possibility to enable CA73 retention
      state anymore on Hikey960, based on this conclusion we should remove
      this state supporting from ARM-TF and roll back to WFI state only.  We
      will commit one patch to remove CA73 CPU retention state in kernel DT
      binding as well.

      Revert "Hikey960: Change to use recommended power state id format" · e1b27425
      Leo Yan authored
      This reverts commit fdae60b6.
      
      The commit fdae60b6
      
       changed the
      parameter encoding for the hikey960.  However that implies a DT change
      in the kernel side.  After submitting the DT change for upstreaming,
      the backward compatibility issue and the interface change raise some
      concerns from the Linux community about the issues related to kernel <->
      ATF alignment.  There is no way to detect a mis-alignment of those
      without a deep knowledge of the ATF and the kernel.  Furthermore, the
      failing calls to PSCI in the idle path (because of bad parameters), will
      lead to busy looping, implying: thermal issues and extra energy
      consumption.
      
      In regard of the Linux community concerns, the potential issues when the
      ATF and the kernel are not aligned, it is preferable to revert the
      commit.

      io: block: fix block_read/write may read/write overlap buffer · e19e40af
      Roberto Vargas authored
      
      
      The block operations were trying to optimize the number of memory
      copies, and it tried to use directly the buffer supplied by the user
      to them. This was a mistake because it created too many corner cases:
      
      	1- It was possible to generate unaligned
      	   operations to unaligned buffers. Drivers that were using
      	   DMA transfer failed in that case.
      
      	2- It was possible to generate read operations
      	   with sizes that weren't a multiple of the block size. Some
      	   low level drivers assumed that condition and they calculated
      	   the number of blocks dividing the number of bytes by the
      	   size of the block, without considering the remaining bytes.
      
      	3- The block_* operations didn't control the
      	   number of bytes actually copied to memory, because the
      	   low level drivers were writing directly to the user buffer.
      
      This patch rewrite block_read and block_write to use always the device
      buffer, which the platform ensures that has the correct aligment and
      the correct size.
