[ Upstream commit 0dfffa5479d6260d04d021f69203b1926f73d889 ]

When compiling a driver written for MIPS on OpenRISC that uses the nop()
function, it fails due to the following error:

    drivers/watchdog/pic32-wdt.c: Assembler messages:
    drivers/watchdog/pic32-wdt.c:125: Error: unrecognized instruction `nop'

The driver currently uses the generic version of nop() from
include/asm-generic/barrier.h:

    #ifndef nop
    #define nop()   asm volatile ("nop")
    #endif

Let's fix this on OpenRISC by defining an architecture-specific version
of nop().

This was tested by performing an allmodconfig openrisc cross compile on
an aarch64 host.

[ Upstream commit 35561bab768977c9e05f1f1a9bc00134c85f3e28 ]

The include/generated/asm-offsets.h is generated in Kbuild during
compiling from arch/SRCARCH/kernel/asm-offsets.c. When we want to
generate another similar offset header file, circular dependency can
happen.

For example, we want to generate a offset file include/generated/test.h,
which is included in include/sched/sched.h. If we generate asm-offsets.h
first, it will fail, as include/sched/sched.h is included in asm-offsets.c
and include/generated/test.h doesn't exist; If we generate test.h first,
it can't success neither, as include/generated/asm-offsets.h is included
by it.

In x86_64, the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS is used to avoid such circular
dependency. We can generate asm-offsets.h first, and if the
COMPILE_OFFSETS is defined, we don't include the "generated/test.h".

And we define the macro COMPILE_OFFSETS for all the asm-offsets.c for this
purpose.

[ Upstream commit e025ab842ec35225b1a8e163d1f311beb9e38ce9 ]

Most architectures (except arm64/x86/sparc) simply return 1 for
kern_addr_valid(), which is only used in read_kcore(), and it calls
copy_from_kernel_nofault() which could check whether the address is a
valid kernel address.  So as there is no need for kern_addr_valid(), let's
remove it.

[ Upstream commit 7b432bf376c9c198a7ff48f1ed14a14c0ffbe1fe ]

The unflatten_and_copy_device_tree() function contains a call to
memblock_alloc(). This means that memblock is allocating memory before
any of the reserved memory regions are set aside in the setup_memory()
function which calls early_init_fdt_scan_reserved_mem(). Therefore,
there is a possibility for memblock to allocate from any of the
reserved memory regions.

Hence, move the call to setup_memory() to be earlier in the init
sequence so that the reserved memory regions are set aside before any
allocations are done using memblock.

commit 8d7071af890768438c14db6172cc8f9f4d04e184 upstream

This finishes the job of always holding the mmap write lock when
extending the user stack vma, and removes the 'write_locked' argument
from the vm helper functions again.

For some cases, we just avoid expanding the stack at all: drivers and
page pinning really shouldn't be extending any stacks.  Let's see if any
strange users really wanted that.

It's worth noting that architectures that weren't converted to the new
lock_mm_and_find_vma() helper function are left using the legacy
"expand_stack()" function, but it has been changed to drop the mmap_lock
and take it for writing while expanding the vma.  This makes it fairly
straightforward to convert the remaining architectures.

As a result of dropping and re-taking the lock, the calling conventions
for this function have also changed, since the old vma may no longer be
valid.  So it will now return the new vma if successful, and NULL - and
the lock dropped - if the area could not be extended.

[ Upstream commit 812489ac4dd91144a74ce65ecf232252a2e406fb ]

In commit 91993c8c2ed5 ("openrisc: use shadow registers to save regs on
exception") the unhandled exception path was changed to do an early
store of r30 instead of r31.  The entry code was not updated and r31 is
not getting stored to pt_regs.

This patch updates the entry handler to store r31 instead of r30.  We
also remove some misleading commented out store r30 and r31
instructrions.

I noticed this while working on adding floating point exception
handling,  This issue probably would never impact anything since we kill
the process or Oops right away on unhandled exceptions.

Kbuild puts the objects listed in head-y at the head of vmlinux.
Conventionally, we do this for head*.S, which contains the kernel entry
point.

A counter approach is to control the section order by the linker script.
Actually, the code marked as __HEAD goes into the ".head.text" section,
which is placed before the normal ".text" section.

I do not know if both of them are needed. From the build system
perspective, head-y is not mandatory. If you can achieve the proper code
placement by the linker script only, it would be cleaner.

I collected the current head-y objects into head-object-list.txt. It is
a whitelist. My hope is it will be reduced in the long run.
