Hi ARM SoC Team,
Please pull !
Most of the issues addressed are found by sashiko and other AI agents.
It all started with me missing the report by Sashiko in [1]. Each round of
fix expanded the AI scope of review and unearthed more issues.
Regards,
Sudeep

firmware: arm_ffa: Fix sched-recv callback partition lookup (2026-05-05 16:42:49 +0100)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Arm FF-A fixes for v7.1
The updates fix several robustness issues in the FF-A bus and core driver,
mostly around notification handling, RxTx buffer sizing, firmware-provided
bounds, and cleanup paths.
The notification fixes make per-CPU notification work truly per-CPU, avoid
running per-vCPU notification handling from IPI context, keep RX buffer
release serialized under rx_lock, validate framework notification payload
layout before copying from the shared RX buffer, and avoid dereferencing
notifier entries after they may have been unregistered.
The remaining fixes reject FF-A drivers without an ID table at registration
time, avoid freeing an unallocated RX buffer after allocation failure,
unregister the FF-A v1.0 bus notifier on teardown, bound register-based
PARTITION_INFO_GET descriptor copies, align the stored RxTx buffer size with
the size mapped to firmware, and fix sched-recv callback partition lookup on
the circular partition list.
