Lorenzo Pieralisi 2208c31d86 ACPI: sysfs: Fix BERT error region memory mapping
commit 1bbc21785b7336619fb6a67f1fff5afdaf229acc upstream.

Currently the sysfs interface maps the BERT error region as "memory"
(through acpi_os_map_memory()) in order to copy the error records into
memory buffers through memory operations (eg memory_read_from_buffer()).

The OS system cannot detect whether the BERT error region is part of
system RAM or it is "device memory" (eg BMC memory) and therefore it
cannot detect which memory attributes the bus to memory support (and
corresponding kernel mapping, unless firmware provides the required
information).

The acpi_os_map_memory() arch backend implementation determines the
mapping attributes. On arm64, if the BERT error region is not present in
the EFI memory map, the error region is mapped as device-nGnRnE; this
triggers alignment faults since memcpy unaligned accesses are not
allowed in device-nGnRnE regions.

The ACPI sysfs code cannot therefore map by default the BERT error
region with memory semantics but should use a safer default.

Change the sysfs code to map the BERT error region as MMIO (through
acpi_os_map_iomem()) and use the memcpy_fromio() interface to read the
error region into the kernel buffer.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
