<id>urn:sha1:b677a767bcb3b9fbb4c7f921e5ba9577f1577049</id>
<content type='text'>
commit c5c38ef3d70377dc504a6a3f611a3ec814bc757b upstream.

The nohz full code needs irq work to trigger its own interrupt so that
the subsystem can work even when the tick is stopped.

Lets introduce arch_irq_work_has_interrupt() that archs can override to
tell about their support for this ability.

<title>arm64,ia64,ppc,s390,sh,tile,um,x86,mm: remove default gate area</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a6c19dfe39941a5d3f4d072121c0a4841e7e26fd</id>
<content type='text'>
The core mm code will provide a default gate area based on
FIXADDR_USER_START and FIXADDR_USER_END if
!defined(__HAVE_ARCH_GATE_AREA) &amp;&amp; defined(AT_SYSINFO_EHDR).

This default is only useful for ia64.  arm64, ppc, s390, sh, tile, 64-bit
UML, and x86_32 have their own code just to disable it.  arm, 32-bit UML,
and x86_64 have gate areas, but they have their own implementations.

This gets rid of the default and moves the code into ia64.

This should save some code on architectures without a gate area: it's now
possible to inline the gate_area functions in the default case.

Fix build error as reported by Geert Uytterhoeven here:

  http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/11607865/

The error happens when CONFIG_HAS_IOPORT_MAP=n because of which there
are missing definitions of ioport_map/unmap().  Fix this build error by
adding these prototypes.

<title>arch, locking: Ciao arch_mutex_cpu_relax()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3a6bfbc91df04b081a44d419e0260bad54abddf7</id>
<content type='text'>
The arch_mutex_cpu_relax() function, introduced by 34b133f, is
hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.

This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency  ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:
 - Optimised assembly string/memory routines (based on the AArch64
   Cortex Strings library contributed to glibc but re-licensed under
   GPLv2)
 - Optimised crypto algorithms making use of the ARMv8 crypto extensions
   (together with kernel API for using FPSIMD instructions in interrupt
   context)
 - Ftrace support
 - CPU topology parsing from DT
 - ESR_EL1 (Exception Syndrome Register) exposed to user space signal
   handlers for SIGSEGV/SIGBUS (useful to emulation tools like Qemu)
 - 1GB section linear mapping if applicable
 - Barriers usage clean-up
 - Default pgprot clean-up

Conflicts as per Catalin.

sys_sgetmask and sys_ssetmask are obsolete system calls no longer
supported in libc.

This patch replaces architecture related __ARCH_WANT_SYS_SGETMAX by expert
mode configuration.That option is enabled by default for those
architectures.

Pull core locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

   - reduced/streamlined smp_mb__*() interface that allows more usecases
     and makes the existing ones less buggy, especially in rarer
     architectures

   - add rwsem implementation comments

   - bump up lockdep limits"
