Pull x86 asm updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle were:
- Cross-arch changes to move the linker sections for NOTES and
EXCEPTION_TABLE into the RO_DATA area, where they belong on most
architectures. (Kees Cook)
- Switch the x86 linker fill byte from x90 (NOP) to 0xcc (INT3), to
trap jumps into the middle of those padding areas instead of
sliding execution. (Kees Cook)
- A thorough cleanup of symbol definitions within x86 assembler code.
The rather randomly named macros got streamlined around a
(hopefully) straightforward naming scheme:
SYM_START(name, linkage, align...)
SYM_END(name, sym_type)
SYM_FUNC_START(name)
SYM_FUNC_END(name)
SYM_CODE_START(name)
SYM_CODE_END(name)
SYM_DATA_START(name)
SYM_DATA_END(name)
etc - with about three times of these basic primitives with some
label, local symbol or attribute variant, expressed via postfixes.
No change in functionality intended. (Jiri Slaby)
- Misc other changes, cleanups and smaller fixes"

Both pgtable_cache_init() and pgd_cache_init() are used to initialize kmem
cache for page table allocations on several architectures that do not use
PAGE_SIZE tables for one or more levels of the page table hierarchy.
Most architectures do not implement these functions and use __weak default
NOP implementation of pgd_cache_init(). Since there is no such default
for pgtable_cache_init(), its empty stub is duplicated among most
architectures.
Rename the definitions of pgd_cache_init() to pgtable_cache_init() and
drop empty stubs of pgtable_cache_init().

lack of __GFP_ACCOUNT for the user PTEs allocation.

Patch series "mm: remove quicklist page table caches".
A while ago Nicholas proposed to remove quicklist page table caches [1].
I've rebased his patch on the curren upstream and switched ia64 and sh to
use generic versions of PTE allocation.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-mm/20190711030339.20892-1-npiggin@gmail.com
This patch (of 3):
Remove page table allocator "quicklists". These have been around for a
long time, but have not got much traction in the last decade and are only
used on ia64 and sh architectures.
The numbers in the initial commit look interesting but probably don't
apply anymore. If anybody wants to resurrect this it's in the git
history, but it's unhelpful to have this code and divergent allocator
behaviour for minor archs.
Also it might be better to instead make more general improvements to page
allocator if this is still so slow.

places to use them.
This patch (of 3):
It's unnecessarily hard to find out the size of a potentially huge page.
Replace 'PAGE_SIZE << compound_order(page)' with page_size(page).

Vincent Guittot as scheduler submaintainers. Add Dietmar Eggemann,
Steven Rostedt, Ben Segall and Mel Gorman as scheduler reviewers.
As perf and the scheduler is getting bigger and more complex,
document the status quo of current responsibilities and interests,
and spread the review pain^H^H^H^H fun via an increase in the Cc:
linecount generated by scripts/get_maintainer.pl. :-)
- Add another series of patches that brings the -rt (PREEMPT_RT) tree
closer to mainline: split the monolithic CONFIG_PREEMPT dependencies
into a new CONFIG_PREEMPTION category that will allow the eventual
introduction of CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT. Still a few more hundred patches
to go though.
- Extend the CPU cgroup controller with uclamp.min and uclamp.max to
allow the finer shaping of CPU bandwidth usage.
- Micro-optimize energy-aware wake-ups from O(CPUS^2) to O(CPUS).
- Improve the behavior of high CPU count, high thread count
applications running under cpu.cfs_quota_us constraints.
- Improve balancing with SCHED_IDLE (SCHED_BATCH) tasks present.
- Improve CPU isolation housekeeping CPU allocation NUMA locality.
- Fix deadline scheduler bandwidth calculations and logic when cpusets
rebuilds the topology, or when it gets deadline-throttled while it's
being offlined.
- Convert the cpuset_mutex to percpu_rwsem, to allow it to be used from
setscheduler() system calls without creating global serialization.
Add new synchronization between cpuset topology-changing events and
the deadline acceptance tests in setscheduler(), which were broken
before.
- Rework the active_mm state machine to be less confusing and more
optimal.
- Rework (simplify) the pick_next_task() slowpath.
- Improve load-balancing on AMD EPYC systems.

While the default ->mmap and ->get_sgtable implementations work for the
majority of our dma_map_ops impementations they are inherently safe
for others that don't use the page allocator or CMA and/or use their
own way of remapping not covered by the common code. So remove the
defaults if these methods are not wired up, but instead wire up the
default implementations for all safe instances.
Fixes: e1c7e324539a ("dma-mapping: always provide the dma_map_ops based implementation")

While it does make sense to allow CONFIG_NUMA and !CONFIG_SMP in
theory, it doesn't make much sense in practice.
Follow other architectures and make CONFIG_NUMA select CONFIG_SMP.
The motivation for this patch is to allow a new NUMA variable to be
initialised in kernel/sched/topology.c.

Add CONFIG_ASM_MODVERSIONS. This allows to remove one if-conditional
nesting in scripts/Makefile.build.
scripts/Makefile.build is run every time Kbuild descends into a
sub-directory. So, I want to avoid $(wildcard ...) evaluation
where possible although computing $(wildcard ...) is so cheap that
it may not make measurable performance difference.

The only thing remaining of the machvecs is a few checks if we are
running on an SGI UV system. Replace those with the existing
is_uv_system() check that has been rewritten to simply check the
OEM ID directly.
That leaves us with a generic kernel that is as fast as the previous
DIG/ZX1/UV kernels, but can support all hardware. Support for UV
and the HP SBA IOMMU is now optional based on new config options.

ia64 currently organizes the iommu probing along machves, which isn't
very helpful. Instead just try to probe for Intel IOMMUs in mem_init
as they are properly described in ACPI and if none was found initialize
the swiotlb buffer. The HP SBA handling is then only done delayed when
the actual hardware is probed. Only in the case that we actually found
usable IOMMUs we then set up the DMA ops and free the not needed
swiotlb buffer. This scheme gets rid of the need for the dma_init
machvec operation, and the dig_vtd machvec.

The hpsim platform supports the HP IA64 simulator which was useful as a
bring up platform. But it is fairly non-standard vs real IA64 system
in that it for example doesn't support ACPI. It also comes with a
whole bunch of simulator specific drivers. Remove it to simplify the
IA64 port.
Note that through a weird twist only them hpsim boot loader built the
vmlinux.gz file, so the makefile targets for that are moved to the
main ia64 Makefile now.
