      devpts: more pty driver interface cleanups · 8ead9dd5
      Linus Torvalds authored 
      This is more prep-work for the upcoming pty changes.  Still just code
cleanup with no actual semantic changes.

This removes a bunch pointless complexity by just having the slave pty
side remember the dentry associated with the devpts slave rather than
the inode.  That allows us to remove all the "look up the dentry" code
for when we want to remove it again.

Together with moving the tty pointer from "inode->i_private" to
"dentry->d_fsdata" and getting rid of pointless inode locking, this
removes about 30 lines of code.  Not only is the end result smaller,
it's simpler and easier to understand.

The old code, for example, depended on the d_find_alias() to not just
find the dentry, but also to check that it is still hashed, which in
turn validated the tty pointer in the inode.

That is a _very_ roundabout way to say "invalidate the cached tty
pointer when the dentry is removed".

The new code just does

	dentry->d_fsdata = NULL;

in devpts_pty_kill() instead, invalidating the tty pointer rather more
directly and obviously.  Don't do something complex and subtle when the
obvious straightforward approach will do.

The rest of the patch (ie apart from code deletion and the above tty
pointer clearing) is just switching the calling convention to pass the
dentry or file pointer around instead of the inode.

      drm/dp/mst: Validate port in drm_dp_payload_send_msg() · deba0a2a
      cpaul@redhat.com authored 
      With the joys of things running concurrently, there's always a chance
that the port we get passed in drm_dp_payload_send_msg() isn't actually
valid anymore. Because of this, we need to make sure we validate the
reference to the port before we use it otherwise we risk running into
various race conditions. For instance, on the Dell MST monitor I have
here for testing, hotplugging it enough times causes us to kernel panic:

[drm:intel_mst_enable_dp] 1
[drm:drm_dp_update_payload_part2] payload 0 1
[drm:intel_get_hpd_pins] hotplug event received, stat 0x00200000, dig 0x10101011, pins 0x00000020
[drm:intel_hpd_irq_handler] digital hpd port B - short
[drm:intel_dp_hpd_pulse] got hpd irq on port B - short
[drm:intel_dp_check_mst_status] got esi 00 10 00
[drm:drm_dp_update_payload_part2] payload 1 1

…

RIP  [<ffffffffa012b026>] drm_dp_payload_send_msg+0x146/0x1f0 [drm_kms_helper]

Which occurs because of the hotplug event shown in the log, which ends
up causing DRM's dp helpers to drop the port we're updating the payload
on and panic.
