    More EFI fixes for v5.10-rc:
- revert efivarfs kmemleak fix again - it was a false positive;

  pull in other dependencies unnecessarily if CONFIG_EFI is not set
- defer attempts to load SSDT overrides from EFI vars until after the
  efivar layer is up.

My kernel's main integration branch is 'orange-pi-$VER' (this one).
No other branch is supposed to work alone. My defconfigs are tested
and work on the boards I support. Read the README.md for more info.

Only my branches based on the current mainline kernel branch are
maintained (those are usually the -rc# kernels!). You can find the
current mainline version here https://www.kernel.org/ (mainline: ...)

My prebuilt kernels can be found at https://xff.cz/kernels/ You can
use them to test that your board works, or just run them without
bothering with building everything yourself. I run them on all my
boards.

My website is https://xnux.eu and may contain useful advice.

Good luck!

  • sched-urgent-2020-11-22

    2279f540 · sched/deadline: Fix priority inheritance with multiple scheduling classes · 
    A couple of scheduler fixes:

 - Make the conditional update of the overutilized state work correctly by
   caching the relevant flags state before overwriting them and checking
   them afterwards.

 - Fix a data race in the wakeup path which caused loadavg on ARM64
   platforms to become a random number generator.

 - Fix the ordering of the iowaiter accounting operations so it can't be
   decremented before it is incremented.

 - Fix a bug in the deadline scheduler vs. priority inheritance when a
   non-deadline task A has inherited the parameters of a deadline task B
   and then blocks on a non-deadline task C.

   The second inheritance step used the static deadline parameters of task
   A, which are usually 0, instead of further propagating task B's
   parameters. The zero initialized parameters trigger a bug in the
   deadline scheduler.
