d5767057c9 uapi: rename ext2_swab() to swab() and share globally in swab.h
ext2_swab() is defined locally in lib/find_bit.c However it is not
specific to ext2, neither to bitmaps.

There are many potential users of it, so rename it to just swab() and
move to include/uapi/linux/swab.h

ABI guarantees that size of unsigned long corresponds to BITS_PER_LONG,
therefore drop unneeded cast.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

74d96f0186 byteorder: make swab.h include asm/swab.h like a regular header
Add swab.h to kbuild.asm and remove the individual entries from
each arch, mark as unifdef as some arches have some kernel-only
bits inside.

ede6f5aea0 Fix up 64-bit byte swaps for most 32-bit architectures
The __SWAB_64_THRU_32__ case of a 64-bit byte swap was depending on the
no-longer-existant ___swab32() method (three underscores).  We got rid
of some of the worst indirection and complexity, and now it should just
use the 32-bit swab function that was defined right above it.

991c0e6d1a byteorder: only use linux/swab.h
The first step to make swab.h a regular header that will
include an asm/swab.h with arch overrides.

Avoid the gratuitous differences introduced in the new
linux/swab.h by naming the ___constant_swabXX bits and
__fswabXX bits exactly as found in the old implementation
in byteorder/swab[b].h

Use this new swab.h in byteorder/[big|little]_endian.h and
remove the two old swab headers.

Although the inclusion of asm/byteorder.h looks strange in
linux/swab.h, this will allow each arch to move the actual
arch overrides for the swab bits in an asm file and then
the includes can be cleaned up without requiring a flag day
for all arches at once.

Keep providing __fswabXX in case some userspace was using them
directly, but the revised __swabXX should be used instead in
any new code and will always do constant folding not dependent
on the optimization level, which means the __constant versions
can be phased out in-kernel.

Arches that use the old-style arch macros will lose their
optimized versions until they move to the new style, but at
least they will still compile.  Many arches have already moved
and the patches to move the remaining arches are trivial.

acf0108a84 byteorder: use generic C version for value byteswapping
This makes the new implementation of the byteorder helpers match the old
in how it degraded when an arch-defined version was not available:

1) swab()
	- look for arch defined
	- if not, use generic c version

2) swabp()
	- look for arch-defined
	- if not, deref pointer and use swab()

3) swabs()
	- look for arch defined
	- if not, use swabp

40c9f22210 byteorder: add a new include/linux/swab.h to define byteswapping functions
Collect the implementations from include/linux/byteorder/swab.h, swabb.h
in swab.h

The functionality provided covers:
u16 swab16(u16 val) - return a byteswapped 16 bit value
u32 swab32(u32 val) - return a byteswapped 32 bit value
u64 swab64(u64 val) - return a byteswapped 64 bit value
u32 swahw32(u32 val) - return a wordswapped 32 bit value
u32 swahb32(u32 val) - return a high/low byteswapped 32 bit value

Similar to above, but return swapped value from a naturally-aligned pointer
u16 swab16p(u16 *p)
u32 swab32p(u32 *p)
u64 swab64p(u64 *p)
u32 swahw32p(u32 *p)
u32 swahb32p(u32 *p)

Similar to above, but swap the value in-place (in-situ)
void swab16s(u16 *p)
void swab32s(u32 *p)
void swab64s(u64 *p)
void swahw32s(u32 *p)
void swahb32s(u32 *p)

Arches can override any of these with an optimized version by defining an
inline in their asm/byteorder.h (example given for swab16()):

u16 __arch_swab16() {}
 #define __arch_swab16 __arch_swab16
