PCI: Fix __initdata issue with "pci=disable_acs_redir" parameter
The disable_acs_redir parameter stores a pointer to the string passed to pci_setup(). However, the string passed to PCI setup is actually a temporary copy allocated in static __initdata memory. After init, once the memory is freed, it is no longer valid to reference this pointer. This bug was noticed in v5.0-rc1 after a change in commit c5eb1190074c ("PCI / PM: Allow runtime PM without callback functions") caused pci_disable_acs_redir() to be called during shutdown which manifested as an unable to handle kernel paging request at: RIP: 0010:pci_enable_acs+0x3f/0x1e0 Call Trace: pci_restore_state.part.44+0x159/0x3c0 pci_restore_standard_config+0x33/0x40 pci_pm_runtime_resume+0x2b/0xd0 ? pci_restore_standard_config+0x40/0x40 __rpm_callback+0xbc/0x1b0 rpm_callback+0x1f/0x70 ? pci_restore_standard_config+0x40/0x40 rpm_resume+0x4f9/0x710 ? pci_conf1_read+0xb6/0xf0 ? pci_conf1_write+0xb2/0xe0 __pm_runtime_resume+0x47/0x70 pci_device_shutdown+0x1e/0x60 device_shutdown+0x14a/0x1f0 kernel_restart+0xe/0x50 __do_sys_reboot+0x1ee/0x210 ? __fput+0x144/0x1d0 do_writev+0x5e/0xf0 ? do_writev+0x5e/0xf0 do_syscall_64+0x48/0xf0 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9 It was also likely possible to trigger this bug when hotplugging PCI devices. To fix this, instead of storing a pointer, we use kstrdup() to copy the disable_acs_redir_param to its own buffer which will never be freed.
