2017-03-10scripts/spelling.txt: add "disble(d)" pattern and fix typo instancesMasahiro Yamada1-1/+1
Fix typos and add the following to the scripts/spelling.txt: disble||disable disbled||disabled I kept the TSL2563_INT_DISBLED in /drivers/iio/light/tsl2563.c untouched. The macro is not referenced at all, but this commit is touching only comment blocks just in case.

2017-02-16Improve sparse documentationMatthew Wilcox1-0/+6
Add documentation of -DCONFIG_SPARSE_RCU_POINTER. I started to add documentation of -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__ as well, but discovered I'm too late; that's now enabled by default. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>

2016-12-16Documentation/sparse: drop __bitwise__Michael S. Tsirkin1-7/+0
We dropped __CHECK_ENDIAN__ so __bitwise__ is now an implementation detail. People should use __bitwise everywhere. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

2016-10-12mm: kmemleak: avoid using __va() on addresses that don't have a lowmem mappingCatalin Marinas1-0/+9
Some of the kmemleak_*() callbacks in memblock, bootmem, CMA convert a physical address to a virtual one using __va(). However, such physical addresses may sometimes be located in highmem and using __va() is incorrect, leading to inconsistent object tracking in kmemleak. The following functions have been added to the kmemleak API and they take a physical address as the object pointer. They only perform the corresponding action if the address has a lowmem mapping: kmemleak_alloc_phys kmemleak_free_part_phys kmemleak_not_leak_phys kmemleak_ignore_phys The affected calling places have been updated to use the new kmemleak API.
