Merge tag 'ipe-pr-20260925' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wufan/ipegrafted

Pull IPE fixes from Fan Wu:
 "Two fixes for use-after-free issues found by recent LLM-assisted code
  analysis.

   - move successful policy load auditing under the new policy
     directory's inode lock, preventing a concurrent policy deletion
     from freeing the policy while it is still being audited

   - protect the dm-verity root hash with RCU, preventing policy
     evaluation from racing with root hash replacement during preresume"

+Suspend/Hibernation Notifiers
+=============================

+
+There are some operations that subsystems or drivers may want to carry out
+before hibernation/suspend or after restore/resume, but they require the system
+to be fully functional, so the drivers' and subsystems' ``->suspend()`` and
+``->resume()`` or even ``->prepare()`` and ``->complete()`` callbacks are not
+suitable for this purpose.
+
+For example, device drivers may want to upload firmware to their devices after
+resume/restore, but they cannot do it by calling :c:func:`request_firmware()`
+from their ``->resume()`` or ``->complete()`` callback routines (user land
+processes are frozen at these points).  The solution may be to load the firmware
+into memory before processes are frozen and upload it from there in the
+``->resume()`` routine.  A suspend/hibernation notifier may be used for that.
+
+Subsystems or drivers having such needs can register suspend notifiers that
+will be called upon the following events by the PM core:
+
+``PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE``
+	The system is going to hibernate, tasks will be frozen immediately. This
+	is different from ``PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE`` below,	because in this case
+	additional work is done between the notifiers and the invocation of PM
+	callbacks for the "freeze" transition.
+
+``PM_POST_HIBERNATION``
+	The system memory state has been restored from a hibernation image or an
+	error occurred during hibernation.  Device restore callbacks have been
+	executed and tasks have been thawed.
+
+``PM_RESTORE_PREPARE``
+	The system is going to restore a hibernation image.  If all goes well,
+	the restored image kernel will issue a ``PM_POST_HIBERNATION``
+	notification.
+
+``PM_POST_RESTORE``
+	An error occurred during restore from hibernation.  Device restore
+	callbacks have been executed and tasks have been thawed.
+
+``PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE``
+	The system is preparing for suspend.
+
+``PM_POST_SUSPEND``
+	The system has just resumed or an error occurred during suspend.  Device
+	resume callbacks have been executed and tasks have been thawed.
+
+It is generally assumed that whatever the notifiers do for
+``PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE``, should be undone for ``PM_POST_HIBERNATION``.
+Analogously, operations carried out for ``PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE`` should be
+reversed for ``PM_POST_SUSPEND``.
+
+Moreover, if one of the notifiers fails for the ``PM_HIBERNATION_PREPARE`` or
+``PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE`` event, the notifiers that have already succeeded for that
+event will be called for ``PM_POST_HIBERNATION`` or ``PM_POST_SUSPEND``,
+respectively.
+
+The hibernation and suspend notifiers are called with :c:data:`pm_mutex` held.
+They are defined in the usual way, but their last argument is meaningless (it is
+always NULL).
+
+To register and/or unregister a suspend notifier use
+:c:func:`register_pm_notifier()` and :c:func:`unregister_pm_notifier()`,
+respectively (both defined in :file:`include/linux/suspend.h`).  If you don't
+need to unregister the notifier, you can also use the :c:func:`pm_notifier()`
+macro defined in :file:`include/linux/suspend.h`.
