"CoreLink Level 2 Cache Controller L2C-310", p. 2-15, section 2.3.2
Shareable attribute" states:

    "The default behavior of the cache controller with respect to the
     shareable attribute is to transform Normal Memory Non-cacheable
     transactions into:
        - cacheable no allocate for reads
        - write through no write allocate for writes."

Depending on the system architecture, this may cause memory corruption
in the presence of bus mastering devices (e.g. OHCI). To avoid such
corruption, the default behavior can be disabled by setting the Shared
Override bit in the Auxiliary Control register.

Currently the Shared Override bit can be set only using C code:
  - by calling l2x0_init() directly, which is deprecated,
  - by setting/clearing the bit in the machine_desc.l2c_aux_val/mask
    fields, but using values differing from 0/~0 is also deprecated.

Hence add support for an "arm,shared-override" device tree property for
the l2c device node. By specifying this property, affected systems can
indicate that non-cacheable transactions must not be transformed.
Then, it's up to the OS to decide. The current behavior is to set the
"shared attribute override enable" bit, as there may exist kernel linear
mappings and cacheable aliases for the DMA buffers, even if CMA is
enabled.

See also commit 1a8e41cd ("ARM: 6395/1: VExpress: Set bit 22 in
the PL310 (cache controller) AuxCtlr register"):

    "Clearing bit 22 in the PL310 Auxiliary Control register (shared
     attribute override enable) has the side effect of transforming
     Normal Shared Non-cacheable reads into Cacheable no-allocate reads.

     Coherent DMA buffers in Linux always have a Cacheable alias via the
     kernel linear mapping and the processor can speculatively load
     cache lines into the PL310 controller. With bit 22 cleared,
     Non-cacheable reads would unexpectedly hit such cache lines leading
     to buffer corruption."

Commit 835a6a2f ("Bluetooth: Stop sabotaging list poisoning")
thought that the code was sabotaging the list poisoning when NULL'ing
out the list pointers and removed it.

But what was going on was that the bluetooth code was using NULL
pointers for the list as a way to mark it empty, and that commit just
broke it (and replaced the test with NULL with a "list_empty()" test on
a uninitialized list instead, breaking things even further).

So fix it all up to use the regular and real list_empty() handling
(which does not use NULL, but a pointer to itself), also making sure to
initialize the list properly (the previous NULL case was initialized
implicitly by the session being allocated with kzalloc())

This is a combination of patches by Marcel Holtmann and Tedd Ho-Jeong
An.

[ I would normally expect to get this through the bt tree, but I'm going
  to release -rc1, so I'm just committing this directly   - Linus ]

Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "It's been a busy development cycle for target-core in a number of
  different areas.

  The fabric API usage for se_node_acl allocation is now within
  target-core code, dropping the external API callers for all fabric
  drivers tree-wide.

  There is a new conversion to RCU hlists for se_node_acl and
  se_portal_group LUN mappings, that turns fast-past LUN lookup into a
  completely lockless code-path.  It also removes the original
  hard-coded limitation of 256 LUNs per fabric endpoint.

  The configfs attributes for backends can now be shared between core
  and driver code, allowing existing drivers to use common code while
  still allowing flexibility for new backend provided attributes.

  The highlights include:

   - Merge sbc_verify_dif_* into common code (sagi)
   - Remove iscsi-target support for obsolete IFMarker/OFMarker
     (Christophe Vu-Brugier)
   - Add bidi support in target/user backend (ilias + vangelis + agover)
   - Move se_node_acl allocation into target-core code (hch)
   - Add crc_t10dif_update common helper (akinobu + mkp)
   - Handle target-core odd SGL mapping for data transfer memory

   - Move transport ID handling into target-core (hch)
   - Move task tag into struct se_cmd + support 64-bit tags (bart)
   - Convert se_node_acl->device_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch +
     paulmck)
   - Convert se_portal_group->tpg_lun_list[] to RCU hlist (nab + hch +
     paulmck)
   - Simplify target backend driver registration (hch)
   - Consolidate + simplify target backend attribute implementations
     (hch + nab)
   - Subsume se_port + t10_alua_tg_pt_gp_member into se_lun (hch)
   - Drop lun_sep_lock for se_lun->lun_se_dev RCU usage (hch + nab)
