- Make the handling of the firmware node consistent and do not free the
node after the domain has been created successfully. The core code
stores a pointer to it which can lead to a use after free or double
free.
This used to "work" because the pointer was not stored when the initial
code was written, but at some point later it was required to store
it. Of course nobody noticed that the existing users break that way.
- Handle affinity setting on inactive interrupts correctly when
hierarchical irq domains are enabled. When interrupts are inactive with
the modern hierarchical irqdomain design, the interrupt chips are not
necessarily in a state where affinity changes can be handled. The legacy
irq chip design allowed this because interrupts are immediately fully
initialized at allocation time. X86 has a hacky workaround for this, but
other implementations do not. This cased malfunction on GIC-V3. Instead
of playing whack a mole to find all affected drivers, change the core
code to store the requested affinity setting and then establish it when
the interrupt is allocated, which makes the X86 hack go away.

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"Two fixes for the interrupt subsystem:
- Make the handling of the firmware node consistent and do not free
the node after the domain has been created successfully. The core
code stores a pointer to it which can lead to a use after free or
double free.
This used to "work" because the pointer was not stored when the

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.
