fdt: Fix fdt_pack_reg() on 64-bit platforms
When "memory" node is being processed in fdt_pack_reg() on ARM64
platforms, an unaligned bus access might happen, which leads to
"synchronous abort" CPU exception. Consider next dts example:
/ {
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <1>;
memory@
80000000 {
device_type = "memory";
reg = <0x0 0x80000000 0x3ab00000>,
<0x0 0xc0000000 0x40000000>,
<0x8 0x80000000 0x80000000>;
};
};
After fdt_pack_reg() reads the first addr/size entry from such memory
node, the "p" pointer becomes 12 bytes shifted from its original value
(8 bytes for two address cells + 4 bytes for one size cell). So now it's
not 64-bit aligned, and an attempt to do 64-bit bus access to that
address will cause an abort like this:
"Synchronous Abort" handler, esr 0x96000021, far 0xba235efc
This issue was originally reported by David Virag [1] who observed it
happening on Samsung Exynos7885 SoC (ARM64), and later the same issue
was observed on Samsung Exynos850 (ARM64).
Fix the issue by using put_unaligned_be64() helper, which takes care of
possible unaligned 64-bit accesses. That solution was proposed by Simon
Glass in the original thread [1].
