Commit 19accfd3 (ARM: move vector stubs) moved the vector stubs in an
additional page above the base vector one. This change wasn't taken into
account by the nommu memreserve.
This patch ensures that the kernel won't overwrite any vector stub on
nommu.

[changed the MPU side too]

Commit 1c2f87c (ARM: 8025/1: Get rid of meminfo) broke the support for
MPU on ARMv7-R. This patch adapts the code inside CONFIG_ARM_MPU to use
memblocks appropriately.

MPU initialisation only uses the first memory region, and removes all
subsequent ones. Because looping over all regions that need removal is
inefficient, and memblock_remove already handles memory ranges, we can
flatten the 'for_each_memblock' part.

Commit 19e6e5e5392b ("ARM: 8547/1: dma-mapping: store buffer
information") allocates a structure meant for internal buffer management
with the GFP flags of the buffer itself. This can trigger the following
safeguard in the slab/slub allocator:

	if (unlikely(flags &amp; GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK)) {
		pr_emerg("gfp: %un", flags &amp; GFP_SLAB_BUG_MASK);
		BUG();
	}

Fix this by filtering the flags that make the slab allocator unhappy.

<title>mm, fs: get rid of PAGE_CACHE_* and page_cache_{get,release} macros</title>

PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} macros were introduced *long* time
ago with promise that one day it will be possible to implement page
cache with bigger chunks than PAGE_SIZE.

This promise never materialized.  And unlikely will.

We have many places where PAGE_CACHE_SIZE assumed to be equal to
PAGE_SIZE.  And it's constant source of confusion on whether
PAGE_CACHE_* or PAGE_* constant should be used in a particular case,
especially on the border between fs and mm.

Global switching to PAGE_CACHE_SIZE != PAGE_SIZE would cause to much
breakage to be doable.

Let's stop pretending that pages in page cache are special.  They are
not.

The changes are pretty straight-forward:

 - &lt;foo&gt; &lt;&lt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - &lt;foo&gt; &gt;&gt; (PAGE_CACHE_SHIFT - PAGE_SHIFT) -&gt; &lt;foo&gt;;

 - PAGE_CACHE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN} -&gt; PAGE_{SIZE,SHIFT,MASK,ALIGN};

 - page_cache_get() -&gt; get_page();

 - page_cache_release() -&gt; put_page();

This patch contains automated changes generated with coccinelle using
script below.  For some reason, coccinelle doesn't patch header files.
I've called spatch for them manually.

The only adjustment after coccinelle is revert of changes to
PAGE_CAHCE_ALIGN definition: we are going to drop it later.

There are few places in the code where coccinelle didn't reach.  I'll
fix them manually in a separate patch.  Comments and documentation also
will be addressed with the separate patch.

Masahiro Yamada reports that we can fail to set the FW bit in the
auxiliary control register, which enables broadcasting the cache
maintanence operations.  This occurs because we only check that the
SMP/nAMP bit is set, rather than checking whether all the bits we
want to be set are set.

Rearrange the code to ensure that all desired bits are set, and only
update the register if we discover some required bits are not set.

     these changes.

   - Virtualisation platform udpates form Jean-Philippe Brucker.

   - Security enhancements from Kees Cook

   - Rework some Kconfig dependencies and move PSCI idle management code
     out of arch/arm into drivers/firmware/psci.c

   - ARM DMA mapping updates, touching media, acked by Mauro.

   - Fix places in ARM code which should be using virt_to_idmap() so
     that Keystone2 can work.

   - Fix Marvell Tauros2 to work again with non-DT boots.

   - Provide a delay timer for ARM Orion platforms"

I guess 9 years should not be too hurried sense of 'quickly' even for
