<linux/sched.h>
Update code that relied on sched.h including various MM types for them.
This will allow us to remove the <linux/mm_types.h> include from <linux/sched.h>.

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a
full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some
asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic
asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of
clutter as possible.
Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both
when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then
for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled
CONFIG_KPROBES.
Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES,
this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely.
Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them.
Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with
the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on
the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can
now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without
bringing the full kitchen sink of header files.
Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its
kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added.
We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless
kprobes have been enabled.
In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from
include/linux/kprobes.h.
During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a
common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition
of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as
BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef
CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

Pull rdma DMA mapping updates from Doug Ledford:
"Drop IB DMA mapping code and use core DMA code instead.
Bart Van Assche noted that the ib DMA mapping code was significantly
similar enough to the core DMA mapping code that with a few changes it
was possible to remove the IB DMA mapping code entirely and switch the
RDMA stack to use the core DMA mapping code.
This resulted in a nice set of cleanups, but touched the entire tree
and has been kept separate for that reason."

Pull exception table module split from Paul Gortmaker:
"Final extable.h related changes.
This completes the separation of exception table content from the
module.h header file. This is achieved with the final commit that
removes the one line back compatible change that sourced extable.h
into the module.h file.
The commits are unchanged since January, with the exception of a
couple Acks that came in for the last two commits a bit later. The
changes have been in linux-next for quite some time[1] and have got
widespread arch coverage via toolchains I have and also from
additional ones the kbuild bot has.
Maintaners of the various arch were Cc'd during the postings to
lkml[2] and informed that the intention was to take the remaining arch
specific changes and lump them together with the final two non-arch
specific changes and submit for this merge window.
The ia64 diffstat stands out and probably warrants a mention. In an
earlier review, Al Viro made a valid comment that the original header
separation of content left something to be desired, and that it get
fixed as a part of this change, hence the larger diffstat"

cputime_t is now only used by two architectures:
* powerpc (when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y)
* s390
And since the core doesn't use it anymore, we don't need any arch support
from the others. So we can remove their stub implementations.
A final cleanup would be to provide an efficient pure arch
implementation of cputime_to_nsec() for s390 and powerpc and finally
remove include/linux/cputime.h .

only used by IA64. So let's move it back there.

We start with a delete of a duplicate prototype in asm/exception.h
that no longer needs to exist, as it duplicates content in extable.h
and since that header is so small, there is no point trying to
avoid using it.
Then we make sure anyone using search_exception_tables directly or
via the ia64_done_with_exception macro has included extable.h
In the process, we remove an include of moduleloader.h that was
apparently not really required; it would have been fetching in
module.h and hence the previous location of the exception search
function prototypes, but we need not rely on that anymore.

Move ia64_done_with_exception out of asm/uaccess.h (which is widely
used) and into asm/exception.h (like ARM has) and then ensure the
few callers of it include this new header.
Most of the other C content in asm files is implemented in macro form.
So we do that conversion at the same time as the move.
There are two C exception prototypes that move along with the macro.
One of them will become redundant when we switch over to using the
<linux/extable.h> instead of <linux/module.h> header in a subsequent
commit.
Also relocate a couple of the automated asm --> linux uaccess
conversions to preserve the linux and asm independent grouping, since
we are in the file at that location anyway.

Currently CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y accounts the cputime on
any context boundary: irq entry/exit, guest entry/exit, context switch,
etc...
Calling functions such as account_system_time(), account_user_time()
and such can be costly, especially if they are called on many fastpath
such as twice per IRQ. Those functions do more than just accounting to
kcpustat and task cputime. Depending on the config, some subsystems can
perform unpleasant multiplications and divisions, among other things.
So lets accumulate the cputime instead and delay the accounting on ticks
and context switches only.

acpi_map_pxm_to_node() unconditially maps nodes even when NUMA is turned

Expose numa_off to the acpi code and return NUMA_NO_NODE when it's set.

Now that we check for page size change early in the loop, we can
partially revert e9d55e157034a ("mm: change the interface for
__tlb_remove_page").
This simplies the code much, by removing the need to track the last
address with which we adjusted the range. We also go back to the older
way of filling the mmu_gather array, ie, we add an entry and then check
whether the gather batch is full.

With commit e77b0852b551 ("mm/mmu_gather: track page size with mmu
gather and force flush if page size change") we added the ability to
force a tlb flush when the page size change in a mmu_gather loop. We
did that by checking for a page size change every time we added a page
to mmu_gather for lazy flush/remove. We can improve that by moving the
page size change check early and not doing it every time we add a page.
This also helps us to do tlb flush when invalidating a range covering
dax mapping. Wrt dax mapping we don't have a backing struct page and
hence we don't call tlb_remove_page, which earlier forced the tlb flush
on page size change. Moving the page size change check earlier means we
will do the same even for dax mapping.
We also avoid doing this check on architecture other than powerpc.
In a later patch we will remove page size check from tlb_remove_page().

these timestamps allow further breaking down the various sender
limitation. For example, a video server can tell if a particular
chunk of video on a connection takes a long time to deliver because
TCP was experiencing small receive window. It is not possible to
tell before this patch without packet traces.
To prepare these stats, the user needs to set
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY flags
while requesting other SOF_TIMESTAMPING TX timestamps. When the
timestamps are available in the error queue, the stats are returned
in a separate control message of type SCM_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_STATS,
in a list of TLVs (struct nlattr) of types: TCP_NLA_BUSY_TIME,
TCP_NLA_RWND_LIMITED, TCP_NLA_SNDBUF_LIMITED. Unit is microsecond.

No need to duplicate the same define everywhere. Since
the only user is stop-machine and the only provider is
s390, we can use a default implementation of cpu_relax_yield()
in sched.h.

For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
"cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.

Instead of having each caller of check_object_size() need to remember to
check for a const size parameter, move the check into check_object_size()
itself. This actually matches the original implementation in PaX, though
this commit cleans up the now-redundant builtin_const() calls in the
various architectures.

Here we have another kind of deviation from the default case -
a difference between exporting functions and non-functions.
EXPORT_DATA_SYMBOL... is really different from EXPORT_SYMBOL...
on ia64, and we need to use the right one when moving exports
from *.c where C compiler has the required information to
*.S, where we need to supply it manually.
parisc64 will be another one like that.

The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA
attributes passed by pointer. Thus the pointer can point to const data.
However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield. Instead unsigned
long will do fine:
1. This is just simpler. Both in terms of reading the code and setting
attributes. Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack
and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits.
2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the
attributes are passed by value.

In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in
ti->flags. alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only),
tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations,
placing the flag in ti->status.
Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common
implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and
drop the custom implementations.
Additional architectures can opt in by removing their
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines.

Specifics:
- Support for ACPI SSDT overlays allowing Secondary System
Description Tables (SSDTs) to be loaded at any time from EFI
variables or via configfs (Octavian Purdila, Mika Westerberg).
- Support for the ACPI LPI (Low-Power Idle) feature introduced in
ACPI 6.0 and allowing processor idle states to be represented in
ACPI tables in a hierarchical way (with the help of Processor
Container objects) and support for ACPI idle states management on
ARM64, based on LPI (Sudeep Holla).
- General improvements of ACPI support for NUMA and ARM64 support for

- General improvements of the ACPI table upgrade mechanism and ARM64
support for that feature (Aleksey Makarov, Jon Masters).
- Support for the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and
improvements of kernel messages printed by the error injection code
(Huang Ying, Borislav Petkov).
- New driver for the Intel Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC operation region
and support for the REGS operation region on Broxton, PMIC code
cleanups (Bin Gao, Felipe Balbi, Paul Gortmaker).
- New driver for the power participant device which is part of the
Dynamic Power and Thermal Framework (DPTF) and DPTF-related code
reorganization (Srinivas Pandruvada).
- Support for the platform-initiated graceful shutdown feature
introduced in ACPI 6.1 (Prashanth Prakash).
- ACPI button driver update related to lid input events generated
automatically on initialization and system resume that have been
problematic for some time (Lv Zheng).
- ACPI EC driver cleanups (Lv Zheng).
- Documentation of the ACPICA release automation process and the

This allows an arch which needs to do special handing with respect to
different page size when flushing tlb to implement the same in mmu
gather.

This updates the generic and arch specific implementation to return true
if we need to do a tlb flush. That means if a __tlb_remove_page
indicate a flush is needed, the page we try to remove need to be tracked
and added again after the flush. We need to track it because we have
already update the pte to none and we can't just loop back.
This change is done to enable us to do a tlb_flush when we try to flush
a range that consists of different page sizes. For architectures like
ppc64, we can do a range based tlb flush and we need to track page size
for that. When we try to remove a huge page, we will force a tlb flush
and starts a new mmu gather.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The locking tree was busier in this cycle than the usual pattern - a
couple of major projects happened to coincide.
The main changes are:
- implement the atomic_fetch_{add,sub,and,or,xor}() API natively
across all SMP architectures (Peter Zijlstra)
- add atomic_fetch_{inc/dec}() as well, using the generic primitives
(Davidlohr Bueso)
- optimize various aspects of rwsems (Jason Low, Davidlohr Bueso,
Waiman Long)
- optimize smp_cond_load_acquire() on arm64 and implement LSE based
atomic{,64}_fetch_{add,sub,and,andnot,or,xor}{,_relaxed,_acquire,_release}()
on arm64 (Will Deacon)
- introduce smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep() and fix various barrier
mis-uses and bugs (Peter Zijlstra)
- after discovering ancient spin_unlock_wait() barrier bugs in its
implementation and usage, strengthen its semantics and update/fix
usage sites (Peter Zijlstra)
- optimize mutex_trylock() fastpath (Peter Zijlstra)
- ... misc fixes and cleanups"

We've had the thread info allocated together with the thread stack for
most architectures for a long time (since the thread_info was split off
from the task struct), but that is about to change.
But the patches that move the thread info to be off-stack (and a part of
the task struct instead) made it clear how confused the allocator and
freeing functions are.
Because the common case was that we share an allocation with the thread
stack and the thread_info, the two pointers were identical. That
identity then meant that we would have things like
ti = alloc_thread_info_node(tsk, node);
...
tsk->stack = ti;
which certainly _worked_ (since stack and thread_info have the same
value), but is rather confusing: why are we assigning a thread_info to
the stack? And if we move the thread_info away, the "confusing" code
just gets to be entirely bogus.
So remove all this confusion, and make it clear that we are doing the
stack allocation by renaming and clarifying the function names to be
about the stack. The fact that the thread_info then shares the
allocation is an implementation detail, and not really about the
allocation itself.
This is a pure renaming and type fix: we pass in the same pointer, it's
just that we clarify what the pointer means.
The ia64 code that actually only has one single allocation (for all of
task_struct, thread_info and kernel thread stack) now looks a bit odd,
but since "tsk->stack" is actually not even used there, that oddity
doesn't matter. It would be a separate thing to clean that up, I
intentionally left the ia64 changes as a pure brute-force renaming and
type change.

Implement FETCH-OP atomic primitives, these are very similar to the
existing OP-RETURN primitives we already have, except they return the
value of the atomic variable _before_ modification.
This is especially useful for irreversible operations -- such as
bitops (because it becomes impossible to reconstruct the state prior
to modification).

This patch updates/fixes all spin_unlock_wait() implementations.
The update is in semantics; where it previously was only a control
dependency, we now upgrade to a full load-acquire to match the
store-release from the spin_unlock() we waited on. This ensures that
when spin_unlock_wait() returns, we're guaranteed to observe the full
critical section we waited on.
This fixes a number of spin_unlock_wait() users that (not
unreasonably) rely on this.
I also fixed a number of ticket lock versions to only wait on the
current lock holder, instead of for a full unlock, as this is
sufficient.
Furthermore; again for ticket locks; I added an smp_rmb() in between
the initial ticket load and the spin loop testing the current value
because I could not convince myself the address dependency is
sufficient, esp. if the loads are of different sizes.
I'm more than happy to remove this smp_rmb() again if people are
certain the address dependency does indeed work as expected.
Note: PPC32 will be fixed independently

A while back Viro posted a number of 'interesting' mutex_is_locked()
users on IRC, one of those was RCU.
RCU seems to use mutex_is_locked() to avoid doing mutex_trylock(), the
regular load before modify pattern.
While the use isn't wrong per se, its curious in that its needed at all,
mutex_trylock() should be good enough on its own to avoid the pointless
cacheline bounces.
So fix those and remove the mutex_is_locked() (ab)use from RCU.

The rwsem-xadd count has been converted to an atomic variable and the
rwsem code now directly uses atomic_long_add() and
atomic_long_add_return(), so we can remove the arch implementations of
rwsem_atomic_add() and rwsem_atomic_update().
