commit 1a1c130ab7575498eed5bcf7220037ae09cd1f8a upstream.
The following problem has been reported by George Kennedy:
Since commit 7fef431be9c9 ("mm/page_alloc: place pages to tail
in __free_pages_core()") the following use after free occurs
intermittently when ACPI tables are accessed.

ACPI tables mapped via kmap() do not have their mapped pages
reserved and the pages can be "stolen" by the buddy allocator.
Apparently, on the affected system, the ACPI table in question is
not located in "reserved" memory, like ACPI NVS or ACPI Data, that
will not be used by the buddy allocator, so the memory occupied by
that table has to be explicitly reserved to prevent the buddy
allocator from using it.
In order to address this problem, rearrange the initialization of the
ACPI tables on x86 to locate the initial tables earlier and reserve
the memory occupied by them.
The other architectures using ACPI should not be affected by this
change.

commit 77fb4e0a559a960eb36d0b2c50c781c5492577eb upsteam
Backport summary: Backport to 5.4.49 for ICX intel_idle support
The intel_idle driver will be modified to use ACPI _CST subsequently
and it will need to call acpi_processor_evaluate_cst(), so move that
function to acpi_processor.c so that it is always present (which is
required by intel_idle) and export it to modules to allow the ACPI
processor driver (which is modular) to call it.
No intentional functional impact.

commit bc94638886ab21f8247d3f7f39573d3feb7d8284 upstream
Backport summary: Backport to 5.4.49 for ICX intel_idle support
The intel_idle driver will be modified to use ACPI _CST subsequently
and it will need to notify the platform firmware of that if
acpi_gbl_FADT.cst_control is set, so add a routine for this purpose,
acpi_processor_claim_cst_control(), to acpi_processor.c (so that it
is always present which is required by intel_idle) and export it
to allow the ACPI processor driver (which is modular) to call it.
No intentional functional impact.

[ Upstream commit ee61cfd955a64a58ed35cbcfc54068fcbd486945 ]
It adds a stub acpi_create_platform_device() for !CONFIG_ACPI build, so
that caller doesn't have to deal with !CONFIG_ACPI build issue.
