There's a check in rxrpc_data_ready() that's checking the CLIENT_INITIATED
flag in the packet type field rather than in the packet flags field.
Fix this by creating a pair of helper functions to check whether the packet
is going to the client or to the server and use them generally.

When operating as a soft ap with wep security, the key was not
configured to the fw for the stations, based on the fact that the
key will be specified in the tx command.
However, in the new tx api the tx command does not include the key,
which resulted in all data frames going out un-encrypted.

We can dump data from the firmware either when it crashes,
or when the firmware is alive.
Not all the data is available if the firmware is running
(like the Tx / Rx FIFOs which are available only when the
firmware is halted), so we first check that the firmware
is alive to compute the required size for the dump and then
fill the buffer with the data.
When we allocate the buffer, we test the STATUS_FW_ERROR
bit to check if the firmware is alive or not. This bit
can be changed during the course of the dump since it is
modified in the interrupt handler.
We hit a case where we allocate the buffer while the
firmware is sill working, and while we start to fill the
buffer, the firmware crashes. Then we test STATUS_FW_ERROR
again and decide to fill the buffer with data like the
FIFOs even if no room was allocated for this data in the
buffer. This means that we overflow the buffer that was
allocated leading to memory corruption.
To fix this, test the STATUS_FW_ERROR bit only once and
rely on local variables to check if we should dump fifos
or other firmware components.

Commit
1958b5fc4010 ("x86/boot: Add early boot support when running with SEV active")
can occasionally cause system resets when kexec-ing a second kernel even
if SEV is not active.
That's because get_sev_encryption_bit() uses 32-bit rIP-relative
addressing to read the value of enc_bit - a variable which caches a
previously detected encryption bit position - but kexec may allocate
the early boot code to a higher location, beyond the 32-bit addressing
limit.
In this case, garbage will be read and get_sev_encryption_bit() will
return the wrong value, leading to accessing memory with the wrong
encryption setting.
Therefore, remove enc_bit, and thus get rid of the need to do 32-bit
rIP-relative addressing in the first place.

After write SSD completed, bcache schedules journal_write work to

flag. system_wq is also a bound wq, and there may be no idle kworker on

rx_mini_pending was set to an incorrect value. This was causing EINVAL to
always be returned to 'ethtool -G'. The driver does not support mini or
jumbo rings so the respective settings should be zero.
Also, change the valid range of the number of descriptors in the rings to
make the code simpler and easier for users to understand (this removes the
valid settings of 8 and 16). Add a system log message indicating when the
number is rounded-up from what the user specifies with the 'ethtool -G'
command (i.e. when it is not a multiple of 32), and update the log message
when a user-provided value is out of range to also indicate the stride.

We have MAX_FW_API_VER_BRANCH, MAX_FW_API_VER_MAJOR, and
MAX_FW_API_VER_MINOR that we use in ice_controlq.h to test when a
firmware version is newer than expected. This is currently tested by
comparing each field separately. Thus, we compare the branch field
against the MAX_FW_API_VER_BRANCH, and so forth.
This means that currently, if we suppose that the max firmware version
is defined as 0.2.1, i.e.
Then firmware 0.1.3 will fail to load. This is because the minor version
3 is greater than the max minor version 1.
This is not intuitive, because of the notion that increasing the major
firmware version to 2 should mean any firmware version with a major
version is less than 2 should be considered older than 2...
In order to allow both 0.2.1 and 0.1.3 to load, you would have to define
the "max" firmware version as 0.2.3.. It is possible that such
a firmware version doesn't even exist yet!
Fix this by replacing the current logic with an updated check that
behaves as follows:
First, we check the major version. If it is greater than the expected
version, then we prevent driver load. Additionally, a warning message is
logged to indicate to the system administrator that they need to update
their driver. This is now the only case where the driver will refuse to
load.
Second, if the major version is less than the expected version, we log
an information message indicating the NVM should be updated.
Third, if the major version is exact, we'll then check the minor
version. If the minor version is more than two versions less than
expected, we log an information message indicating the NVM should be
updated. If it is more than two versions greater than the expected
version, we log an information message that the driver should be
updated.
To support this, the ice_aq_ver_check function needs its signature
