If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

The only place where the time is invalid is when the ACPI_CSTATE_FFH entry
method is not set. Otherwise for all the drivers, the time can be correctly
measured.
Instead of duplicating the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIME_VALID flag in all the drivers
for all the states, just invert the logic by replacing it by the flag
CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIME_INVALID, hence we can set this flag only for the acpi idle
driver, remove the former flag from all the drivers and invert the logic with
this flag in the different governor.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...
For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.
The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm
field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things
static. Really minor stuff"

ftrace_stop() is going away as it disables parts of function tracing
that affects users that should not be affected. But ftrace_graph_stop()
is built on ftrace_stop(). Here's another example of killing all of
function tracing because something went wrong with function graph
tracing.
Instead of disabling all users of function tracing on function graph
error, disable only function graph tracing. To do this, the arch code
must call ftrace_graph_is_dead() before it implements function graph.

__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One
of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This
calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the
current processor based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
#define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var)))
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However, store
and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on
other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a
percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu
variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that
use the offset. Thereby address calculations are avoided and less
registers are used when code is generated.
At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so
the macro is removed too.
The patch set includes passes over all arches as well. Once these
operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in
non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using
a global register that may be set to the per cpu base.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&y), sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
__this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++
Converts to
__this_cpu_inc(y)

If the renamed symbol is defined lib/iomap.c implements ioport_map and
ioport_unmap and currently (nearly) all platforms define the port
accessor functions outb/inb and friend unconditionally. So
HAS_IOPORT_MAP is the better name for this.
Consequently NO_IOPORT is renamed to NO_IOPORT_MAP.
The motivation for this change is to reintroduce a symbol HAS_IOPORT
that signals if outb/int et al are available. I will address that at
least one merge window later though to keep surprises to a minimum and
catch new introductions of (HAS|NO)_IOPORT.

The compiler is permitted to generate code which overwrites the
parameters to a function. If those parameters include the only saved
copy we have of userspace's registers, we're in trouble.

When invoking syscall handlers on sh32, the saved userspace registers
are at the top of the stack. This seems to have been intentional, as it
is an easy way to pass r0, r1, ... to the handler as parameters 5, 6,
...
It causes problems, however, because the compiler is allowed to generate
code for a function which clobbers that function's own parameters. For
example, gcc generates the following code for clone:
<SyS_clone>:
mov.l 8c020714 <SyS_clone+0xc>,r1 ! 8c020540 <do_fork>
mov.l r7,@r15
mov r6,r7
jmp @r1
mov #0,r6
nop
.word 0x0540
.word 0x8c02
The `mov.l r7,@r15` clobbers the saved value of r0 passed from
userspace. For most system calls, this might not be a problem, because
we'll be overwriting r0 with the return value anyway. But in the case
of clone, copy_thread will need the original value of r0 if the
CLONE_SETTLS flag was specified.
The first patch in this series fixes this issue for system calls by
pushing to the stack and extra copy of r0-r2 before invoking the
handler. We discard this copy before restoring the userspace registers,
so it is not a problem if they are clobbered.
Exception handlers also receive the userspace register values in a
similar manner, and may hit the same problem. The second patch removes
the do_fpu_error handler, which looks susceptible to this problem and
which, as far as I can tell, has not been used in some time. The third
patch addresses other exception handlers.
This patch (of 3):
The userspace registers are stored at the top of the stack when the
syscall handler is invoked, which allows r0-r2 to act as parameters 5-7.
Parameters passed on the stack may be clobbered by the syscall handler.
The solution is to push an extra copy of the registers which might be
used as syscall parameters to the stack, so that the authoritative set
of saved register values does not get clobbered.
A few system call handlers are also updated to get the userspace
registers using current_pt_regs() instead of from the stack.

But there were a few features that were added.
Uprobes now work with event triggers and multi buffers.
Uprobes have support under ftrace and perf.
The big feature is that the function tracer can now be used within the
multi buffer instances. That is, you can now trace some functions
in one buffer, others in another buffer, all functions in a third buffer
and so on. They are basically agnostic from each other. This only
works for the function tracer and not for the function graph trace,
although you can have the function graph tracer running in the top level
buffer (or any tracer for that matter) and have different function tracing
going on in the sub buffers.

Pull irq code updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"The irq department proudly presents:
- Another tree wide sweep of irq infrastructure abuse. Clear winner
of the trainwreck engineering contest was:
#include "../../../kernel/irq/settings.h"
- Tree wide update of irq_set_affinity() callbacks which miss a cpu
online check when picking a single cpu out of the affinity mask.
- Tree wide consolidation of interrupt statistics.
- Updates to the threaded interrupt infrastructure to allow explicit
wakeup of the interrupt thread and a variant of synchronize_irq()
which synchronizes only the hard interrupt handler. Both are
needed to replace the homebrewn thread handling in the mmc/sdhci
code.
- New irq chip callbacks to allow proper support for GPIO based irqs.
The GPIO based interrupts need to request/release GPIO resources
from request/free_irq.
- A few new ARM interrupt chips. No revolutionary new hardware, just
differently wreckaged variations of the scheme.
- Small improvments, cleanups and updates all over the place"

joke. But no.

As the data parameter is not really used by any ftrace_dyn_arch_init,
remove that from ftrace_dyn_arch_init. This also removes the addr
local variable from ftrace_init which is now unused.
Note the documentation was imprecise as it did not suggest to set
(*data) to 0.

No architecture uses the "data" parameter in ftrace_dyn_arch_init() in any
way, it just sets the value to 0. And this is used as a return value
in the caller -- ftrace_init, which just checks the retval against
zero.
Note there is also "return 0" in every ftrace_dyn_arch_init. So it is
enough to check the retval and remove all the indirect sets of data on
all archs.

Commit bcf24e1daa ("mmc: omap_hsmmc: use the generic config for

sh-allmodconfig now fails with:
include/linux/omap-dma.h:171:8: error: expected identifier before numeric constant
make[4]: *** [drivers/mmc/host/omap_hsmmc.o] Error 1
This happens because SuperH #defines "CCR", which is one of the enum
values in include/linux/omap-dma.h. There's a similar issue with "CCR2"
on sh2a.
As "CCR" and "CCR2" are too generic names for global #defines, prefix
them with "SH_" to fix this.

Updates of SoC-near drivers and other driver updates that makes more sense to

The largest part of this is a conversion of device registration for some
renesas shmobile/sh devices over to use resources. This has required
coordination with the corresponding arch/sh changes, and we've agreed
to merge the arch/sh changes through our tree.
Added in this branch is support for Trusted Foundations secure firmware,
which is what is used on many of the commercial Nvidia Tegra products
that are in the market, including the Nvidia Shield. The code is local
to arch/arm at this time since it's uncertain whether it will be shared
with arm64 longer-term, if needed we will refactor later.

on request by the RTC maintainer.
... plus a bunch of smaller updates across the board, gpio conversions
