This patch removes the famous action_bits and moves the handling of
SIGP STOP AND STORE STATUS directly into the SIGP STOP interrupt.
The new local interrupt infrastructure is used to track pending stop
requests.
STOP irqs are the only irqs that don't get actively delivered. They
remain pending until the stop function is executed (=stop intercept).
If another STOP irq is already pending, -EBUSY will now be returned
(needed for the SIGP handling code).
Migration of pending SIGP STOP (AND STORE STATUS) orders should now
be supported out of the box.

In order to get rid of the action_flags and to properly migrate pending SIGP
STOP irqs triggered e.g. by SIGP STOP AND STORE STATUS, we need to remember
whether to store the status when stopping.
For this reason, a new parameter (flags) for the SIGP STOP irq is introduced.
These flags further define details of the requested STOP and can be easily
migrated.

Patch 0759d0681c ("KVM: s390: cleanup handle_wait by reusing
kvm_vcpu_block") changed the way pending guest clock comparator
interrupts are detected. It was assumed that as soon as the hrtimer
wakes up, the condition for the guest ckc is satisfied.
This is however only true as long as adjclock() doesn't speed
up the monotonic clock. Reason is that the hrtimer is based on
CLOCK_MONOTONIC, the guest clock comparator detection is based
on the raw TOD clock. If CLOCK_MONOTONIC runs faster than the
TOD clock, the hrtimer wakes the target VCPU up too early and
the target VCPU will not detect any pending interrupts, therefore
going back to sleep. It will never be woken up again because the
hrtimer has finished. The VCPU is stuck.
As a quick fix, we have to forward the hrtimer until the guest
clock comparator is really due, to guarantee properly timed wake
ups.
As the hrtimer callback might be triggered on another cpu, we
have to make sure that the timer is really stopped and not currently
executing the callback on another cpu. This can happen if the vcpu
thread is scheduled onto another physical cpu, but the timer base
is not migrated. So lets use hrtimer_cancel instead of try_to_cancel.
A proper fix might be to introduce a RAW based hrtimer.

With commit c6c956b80b ("KVM: s390/mm: support gmap page tables with less
than 5 levels") we are able to define a limit for the guest memory size.
As we round up the guest size in respect to the levels of page tables
we get to guest limits of: 2048 MB, 4096 GB, 8192 TB and 16384 PB.
We currently limit the guest size to 16 TB, which means we end up
creating a page table structure supporting guest sizes up to 8192 TB.
This patch introduces an interface that allows userspace to tune
this limit. This may bring performance improvements for small guests.

As we will allow in a later patch to recreate gmaps with new limits,
we need to make sure that vcpus get their reference for that gmap
after they increased the online_vcpu counter, so there is no possible race.
While we are doing this, we also can simplify the vcpu_init function, by
moving ucontrol specifics to an own function.
That way we also start now setting the kvm_valid_regs for the ucontrol path.

For the hrtimer which emulates the tscdeadline timer in the guest,
add an option to advance expiration, and busy spin on VM-entry waiting

which requires strict timing regarding timer expiration).
Reduces average cyclictest latency from 12us to 8us

Note: this option requires tuning to find the appropriate value
for a particular hardware/guest combination. One method is to measure the
average delay between apic_timer_fn and VM-entry.
Another method is to start with 1000ns, and increase the value
in say 500ns increments until avg cyclictest numbers stop decreasing.

broke arm64 was merged through arm-soc. The other two patches are
a fix for an undetected merge problem in mvebu and a defconfig change
to make some exynos boards work with the normal multi_v7_defconfig.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Arnd Bergmann:
"A very small set of fixes for 3.19, as everyone was out.
The clocksource patch was something I missed for the merge window
after the change that broke arm64 was merged through arm-soc. The
other two patches are a fix for an undetected merge problem in mvebu
and a defconfig change to make some exynos boards work with the normal
multi_v7_defconfig"
* tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc:
Add USB_EHCI_EXYNOS to multi_v7_defconfig
ARM: mvebu: Fix pinctrl configuration for Armada 370 DB
clocksource: arch_timer: Only use the virtual counter (CNTVCT) on arm64
Pull input layer fixes from Dmitry Torokhov:
"Fixes for v7 protocol for ALPS devices and few other driver fixes.
Also users can request input events to be stamped with boot time
timestamps, in addition to real and monotonic timestamps"

Input: gpio_keys - allow separating gpio and irq in device tree
This reverts commit 24a0aa212e.
It's causing severe userspace breakage. Namely, all the utilities from
wireless-utils which are relying on CONFIG_WEXT (which means tools like
'iwconfig', 'iwlist', etc) are not working anymore. There is a 'iw'
utility in newer wireless-tools, which is supposed to be a replacement
for all the "deprecated" binaries, but it's far away from being
massively adopted.
Please see [1] for example of the userspace breakage this is causing.
In addition to that, Larry Finger reports [2] that this patch is also
causing ipw2200 driver being impossible to build.
To me this clearly shows that CONFIG_WEXT is far, far away from being
"deprecated enough" to be removed.
