Please pull this fix for v4.14-rc4.
It fixes a bug in xattr_getsecurity() where security_release_secctx() was
being called instead of kfree(), which leads to a memory leak in the
capabilities code. smack_inode_getsecurity is also fixed to behave
correctly when called from there.

Hi Dan. Thanks for your comments. I can fix all of those.
Probably there is also some upgrade needed for the MSI stuff.
pci_disable_msi() is not there anymore, so I have to use
pci_alloc_irq_vectors(). Doing tests with my PCIe HW I had some

The prior patch which fixed the problem with output inversion failed to
account for a necessary change to requesting a pin for input, which is
affected by the open-drain nature of the hardware.

Platform devices are expected to use wrapper functions,
platform_{get,set}_drvdata() with platform_device as argument,
for getting and setting the driver data. dev_{get,set}_drvdata()

For wrapper functions we can directly pass a struct platform_device

Make sure to reset the USB-console port pointer when console setup fails
in order to avoid having the struct usb_serial be prematurely freed by
the console code when the device is later disconnected.

A recent clean-up patch of mine did more than intended and introduced
the potential for a use-after-free on disconnect under some very
specific circumstances. Fortunately those circumstances were not obscure

A clean-up patch removing removing two redundant NULL-checks from the
console disconnect handler inadvertently also removed a third check.
This could lead to the struct usb_serial being prematurely freed by the
console code when a driver accepts but does not register any ports for
an interface whic
