Merge tag 'irq-urgent-2020-07-19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip into master
Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner: "Two fixes for the interrupt subsystem: - Make the handling of the firmware node consistent and do not free the node after the domain has been created successfully. The core code stores a pointer to it which can lead to a use after free or double free. This used to "work" because the pointer was not stored when the initial code was written, but at some point later it was required to store it. Of course nobody noticed that the existing users break that way. - Handle affinity setting on inactive interrupts correctly when hierarchical irq domains are enabled. When interrupts are inactive with the modern hierarchical irqdomain design, the interrupt chips are not necessarily in a state where affinity changes can be handled. The legacy irq chip design allowed this because interrupts are immediately fully initialized at allocation time. X86 has a hacky workaround for this, but other implementations do not. This cased malfunction on GIC-V3. Instead of playing whack a mole to find all affected drivers, change the core code to store the requested affinity setting and then establish it when the interrupt is allocated, which makes the X86 hack go away" * tag 'irq-urgent-2020-07-19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: genirq/affinity: Handle affinity setting on inactive interrupts correctly irqdomain/treewide: Keep firmware node unconditionally allocated
