timers: Fix NULL function pointer race in timer_shutdown_sync()

tick/sched: Fix bogus condition in report_idle_softirq()
There is a race condition between timer_shutdown_sync() and timer
expiration that can lead to hitting a WARN_ON in expire_timers().
The issue occurs when timer_shutdown_sync() clears the timer function
to NULL while the timer is still running on another CPU. The race
scenario looks like this:
CPU0 CPU1
<SOFTIRQ>
lock_timer_base()
expire_timers()
base->running_timer = timer;
unlock_timer_base()
[call_timer_fn enter]
mod_timer()
...
timer_shutdown_sync()
lock_timer_base()
// For now, will not detach the timer but only clear its function to NULL
if (base->running_timer != timer)
ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true);
if (shutdown)
timer->function = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
[call_timer_fn exit]
lock_timer_base()
base->running_timer = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
...
// Now timer is pending while its function set to NULL.
// next timer trigger
<SOFTIRQ>
expire_timers()
WARN_ON_ONCE(!fn) // hit
...
lock_timer_base()
// Now timer will detach
if (base->running_timer != timer)
ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true);
if (shutdown)
timer->function = NULL;
unlock_timer_base()
The problem is that timer_shutdown_sync() clears the timer function
regardless of whether the timer is currently running. This can leave a
pending timer with a NULL function pointer, which triggers the
WARN_ON_ONCE(!fn) check in expire_timers().
Fix this by only clearing the timer function when actually detaching the
timer. If the timer is running, leave the function pointer intact, which is
safe because the timer will be properly detached when it finishes running.

tk_aux_sysfs_init() returns immediately on error during the auxiliary clock
initialization loop without cleaning up previously allocated kobjects and
sysfs groups.
If kobject_create_and_add() or sysfs_create_group() fails during loop
iteration, the parent kobjects (tko and auxo) and any previously created
child kobjects are leaked.
Fix this by adding proper error handling with goto labels to ensure all
allocated resources are cleaned up on failure. kobject_put() on the
parent kobjects will handle cleanup of their children.

Currently cpu-clock event always returns 0 count, e.g.,
perf stat -e cpu-clock -- sleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1':
0 cpu-clock # 0.000 CPUs utilized
1.002308394 seconds time elapsed
The root cause is the commit 'bc4394e5e79c ("perf: Fix the throttle
error of some clock events")' adds PERF_EF_UPDATE flag check before
calling cpu_clock_event_update() to update the count, however the
PERF_EF_UPDATE flag is never set when the cpu-clock event is stopped in
counting mode (pmu->dev() -> cpu_clock_event_del() ->
cpu_clock_event_stop()). This leads to the cpu-clock event count is
never updated.
To fix this issue, force to set PERF_EF_UPDATE flag for cpu-clock event
just like what task-clock does.

In commit 0345691b24 ("tick/rcu: Stop allowing RCU_SOFTIRQ in idle") the
new function report_idle_softirq() was created by breaking code out of the
existing can_stop_idle_tick() for kernels v5.18 and newer.
In doing so, the code essentially went from this form:
if (A) {
static int ratelimit;
if (ratelimit < 10 && !C && A&D) {
pr_warn("NOHZ tick-stop error: ...");
ratelimit++;
}
return false;
}
to a new function:
static bool report_idle_softirq(void)
{
static int ratelimit;
if (likely(!A))
return false;
if (ratelimit < 10)
return false;
...
pr_warn("NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #%02x!!!\n",
pending);
ratelimit++;
return true;
}
commit a7e282c777 ("tick/rcu: Fix bogus ratelimit condition") realized
ratelimit was essentially set to zero instead of ten, and hence *no*
softirq pending messages would ever be issued, but "fixed" it as:
- if (ratelimit < 10)
+ if (ratelimit >= 10)
return false;
However, this fix introduced another issue:
When ratelimit is greater than or equal 10, even if A is true, it will
directly return false. While ratelimit in the original code was only used
to control printing and will not affect the return value.
Restore the original logic and restrict ratelimit to control the printk and
not the return value.

Pull Allwinner clk driver fixes from Chen-Yu Tsai:
Just a couple fixes for the A523 family. A couple clocks are marked as
critical, and the lower bound of the audio PLL was lowered to match
the datasheet.

While the user manual states that the PLL's rate should be between 180
MHz and 3 GHz in the register defninition section, it also says the
actual operating frequency is 22.5792*4 MHz in the PLL features table.
22.5792*4 MHz is one of the actual clock rates that we want and is
is available in the SDM table. Lower the minimum clock rate to 90 MHz
so that both rates in the SDM table can be used.

The "bus-r-dma" clock in the A523's PRCM clock controller is also
referred to as "DMA_CLKEN_SW" or "DMA ADB400 gating". It is unclear how
this ties into the DMA controller MBUS clock gate; however if the clock
is not enabled, the DMA controller in the MCU block will fail to access
DRAM, even failing to retrieve the DMA descriptors.
Mark this clock as critical. This sort of mirrors what is done for the
main DMA controller's MBUS clock, which has a separate toggle that is
currently left out of the main clock controller driver.
