<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>urn:sha1:69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

timer_delete[_sync]() replaces del_timer[_sync](). Convert the whole tree
over and remove the historical wrapper inlines.

Conversion was done with coccinelle plus manual fixups where necessary.

<title>pstore: Change kmsg_bytes storage size to u32</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5674609535bafa834ab014d90d9bbe8e89223a0b</id>
<content type='text'>
The types around kmsg_bytes were inconsistent. The global was unsigned
long, the argument to pstore_set_kmsg_bytes() was int, and the filesystem
option was u32. Given other internal limits, there's not much sense
in making a single pstore record larger than INT_MAX and it can't be
negative, so use u32 everywhere. Additionally, use READ/WRITE_ONCE and a
local variable in pstore_dump() to avoid kmsg_bytes changing during a
dump.

pstore_dump() is called when both preemption and local IRQ are disabled,
and a spinlock is obtained, which is problematic for the RT kernel because
in this configuration, spinlocks are sleep locks.

Replace the spinlock_t with raw_spinlock_t to avoid sleeping in atomic context.

<id>urn:sha1:e1a261ba599eec97e1c5c7760d5c3698fc24e6a6</id>
<content type='text'>
kmsg_dump doesn't forward the panic reason string to the kmsg_dumper
callback.
This patch adds a new struct kmsg_dump_detail, that will hold the
reason and description, and pass it to the dump() callback.

To avoid updating all kmsg_dump() call, it adds a kmsg_dump_desc()
function and a macro for backward compatibility.

I've written this for drm_panic, but it can be useful for other
kmsg_dumper.
It allows to see the panic reason, like "sysrq triggered crash"
or "VFS: Unable to mount root fs on xxxx" on the drm panic screen.

v2:
 * Use a struct kmsg_dump_detail to hold the reason and description
   pointer, for more flexibility if we want to add other parameters.
   (Kees Cook)
 * Fix powerpc/nvram_64 build, as I didn't update the forward
   declaration of oops_to_nvram()
