One bug fix and three reverts. The reverts back out the slightly
controversial feeding the entire device tree into the random pool and
the reserved-memory binding which isn't fully baked yet. Expect the
reserved-memory patches at least to resurface for v3.13. The bug fixes
removes a scary but harmless warning on SPARC that was introduced in the
v3.12 merge window. v3.13 will contain a proper fix that makes the new
code work on SPARC.
On the plus side, the diffstat looks *awesome*. I love removing lines of code.

... otherwise it is impossible for the low level iommu driver to
figure out which pte flags should be used.
In __map_sg_chunk we can derive the flags from dma_data_direction.
In __iommu_create_mapping we should treat the memory like
DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL and pass both IOMMU_READ and IOMMU_WRITE to
iommu_map.
__iommu_create_mapping is used during dma_alloc_coherent (via
arm_iommu_alloc_attrs). AFAIK dma_alloc_coherent is responsible for
allocation _and_ mapping. I think this implies that access to the
mapped pages should be allowed.

Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer
in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in
kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from
user-triggered faults.
Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the
architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM
handling can be improved.

Kernel faults are expected to handle OOM conditions gracefully (gup,

Currently hugepage migration works well only for pmd-based hugepages
(mainly due to lack of testing,) so we had better not enable migration of
other levels of hugepages until we are ready for it.
Some users of hugepage migration (mbind, move_pages, and migrate_pages) do
page table walk and check pud/pmd_huge() there, so they are safe. But the
other users (softoffline and memory hotremove) don't do this, so without
this patch they can try to migrate unexpected types of hugepages.
To prevent this, we introduce hugepage_migration_support() as an
architecture dependent check of whether hugepage are implemented on a pmd
basis or not. And on some architecture multiple sizes of hugepages are
available, so hugepage_migration_support() also checks hugepage size.

System-wide barriers aren't required for situations where we only need
to make visibility and ordering guarantees in the inner-shareable domain
(i.e. we are not dealing with devices or potentially incoherent CPUs).
This patch changes the v7 TLB operations, coherent_user_range and
dcache_clean_area functions to user inner-shareable barriers. For cache
maintenance, only the store access type is required to ensure completion.

Inner-shareable TLB invalidation is typically more expensive than local
(non-shareable) invalidation, so performing the broadcasting for
local_flush_tlb_* operations is a waste of cycles and needlessly
clobbers entries in the TLBs of other CPUs.
This patch introduces __flush_tlb_* versions for many of the TLB
invalidation functions, which only respect inner-shareable variants of
the invalidation instructions when presented with the TLB_V7_UIS_FULL
flag. The local version is also inlined to prevent SMP_ON_UP kernels
from missing flushes, where the __flush variant would be called with
the UP flags.
This gains us around 0.5% in hackbench scores for a dual-core A15, but I
would expect this to improve as more cores (and clusters) are added to
the equation.

linker magic - the symbols which surround the section are not declared
const so it becomes possible not to use 'const' for pointers to these
const structures.
Let's fix this oversight - all pointers to these structures should be
marked const too.

Commit 93dc688 (ARM: 7684/1: errata: Workaround for Cortex-A15 erratum 798181 (TLBI/DSB operations)) causes the following undefined instruction error on a mx53 (Cortex-A8):
Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] SMP ARM

PC is at check_and_switch_context+0x17c/0x4d0
LR is at check_and_switch_context+0xdc/0x4d0
This problem happens because check_and_switch_context() calls dummy_flush_tlb_a15_erratum() without checking if we are really running on a Cortex-A15 or not.
To avoid this issue, only call dummy_flush_tlb_a15_erratum() inside
check_and_switch_context() if erratum_a15_798181() returns true, which means that we are really running on a Cortex-A15.

On some PAE architectures, the entire range of physical memory could reside
outside the 32-bit limit. These systems need the ability to specify the
initrd location using 64-bit numbers.
This patch globally modifies the early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch() function to
use 64-bit numbers instead of the current unsigned long.
There has been quite a bit of debate about whether to use u64 or phys_addr_t.
It was concluded to stick to u64 to be consistent with rest of the device
tree code. As summarized by Geert, "The address to load the initrd is decided
by the bootloader/user and set at that point later in time. The dtb should not
be tied to the kernel you are booting"

When map_lowmem() runs, and processes a memory bank whose start or end
is not section-aligned, memory must be allocated to store the 2nd-level
page tables. Those allocations are made by calling memblock_alloc().
At this point, the only memory that is free *and* mapped is memory which
has already been mapped by map_lowmem() itself. For this reason, we must
calculate the first point at which map_lowmem() will need to allocate
memory, and set the memblock allocation limit to a lower address, so that
memblock_alloc() is guaranteed to return memory that is already mapped.
This patch enhances sanity_check_meminfo() to calculate that memory
address, and pass it to memblock_set_current_limit(), rather than just
assuming the limit is arm_lowmem_limit.
The algorithm applied is:
* Default memblock_limit to arm_lowmem_limit in the absence of any other
limit; arm_lowmem_limit is the highest memory that is mapped by
map_lowmem().
* While walking the list of memblocks, if the start of a block is not
aligned, 2nd-level page tables will need to be allocated to map the
first few pages of the block. Hence, the memblock_limit must be before
the start of the block.
* Similarly, if the end of any block is not aligned, 2nd-level page
tables will need to be allocated to map the last few pages of the
block. Hence, the memblock_limit must point at the end of the block,
rounded down to section-alignment.
* The memory blocks are assumed to be sorted in address order, so the
first unaligned block start or end is used to set the limit.
With this algorithm, the start or end of almost any bank can be non-
section-aligned. The only exception is that the start of bank 0 must
be section-aligned, since otherwise memory would need to be allocated
when mapping the start of bank 0, which occurs before any free memory
is mapped.

Commit ae8a8b9553 ("ARM: 7691/1: mm: kill unused TLB_CAN_READ_FROM_L1_CACHE
and use ALT_SMP instead") added early function returns for page table
cache flushing operations on ARMv7 SMP CPUs.
Unfortunately, when targetting Thumb-2, these `mov pc, lr' sequences
assemble to 2 bytes which can lead to corruption of the instruction
stream after code patching.
This patch fixes the alternates to use wide (32-bit) instructions for
Thumb-2, therefore ensuring that the patching code works correctly.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the ARM uses of the __cpuinit macros from C code,
and all __CPUINIT from assembly code. It also had two ".previous"
section statements that were paired off against __CPUINIT
(aka .section ".cpuinit.text") that also get removed here.

Failure to add the mapping created in debug_ll_io_init() can lead
to the BUG_ON() triggering in lib/ioremap.c:27 if the static
virtual address decided for the debug_ll mapping overlaps with
another mapping that is created later. This happens because the
generic ioremap code has no idea there is a mapping there and it
tries to place a mapping in the same location and blows up when
it sees that there is a pte already present.

I've started to put the pull request wording into the merge commits,
which are:
- NoMMU stuff:
This includes the following series sent earlier to the list:
- nommu-fixes
- R7 Support
- MPU support
I've left out the ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM/!MMU stuff that Arnd and I
were discussing today until we've reached a conclusion/that's had
some more review.
This is rebased (and re-tested) on your devel-stable branch because
otherwise there were going to be conflicts with Uwe's V7M work now
that you've merged that. I've included the fix for limiting MPU to
CPU_V7.
- Huge page support
These changes bring both HugeTLB support and Transparent HugePage
(THP) support to ARM. Only long descriptors (LPAE) are supported
in this series.
The code has been tested on an Arndale board (Exynos 5250).
- LPAE updates
Please pull these miscellaneous LPAE fixes I've been collecting for
a while now for 3.11. They've been tested and reviewed by quite a
few people, and most of the patches are pretty trivial. -- Will Deacon.
