[PATCH v2 00/11] firmware: arm_ffa: Fix cleanup, notification, and discovery paths

[Sudeep Holla]

Hi all,

This series fixes a set of issues in the FF-A driver around init
cleanup, framework notification handling, v1.0 notifier lifetime, and
partition discovery.

The fixes are all small and localized, but together they tighten a few
important paths:

- fix the early init unwind path when RX buffer allocation fails
- align the stored RX/TX buffer size with the size actually mapped to
  firmware
- ensure the framework notification handler always releases the RX
  buffer correctly
- validate framework notification payload bounds before copying data out
  of the shared RX buffer
- fix the partition lookup used for sched-recv callback registration
- unregister the FF-A v1.0 bus notifier during teardown
- bound the register-based partition discovery copies against the caller
  buffer
- reject FF-A driver registration without an ID table
- fix per-vcpu drivers own notifications handling in workqueue
- make NPI per cpu work item to avoid collapsing already queued work

This is the outcome of the self-initiated review of the entire driver
following the oversight of Sashiko’s review on one of the patches that
was merged.
