This just syncs the backtracing support in the kernel to the
upstream backtrace library.

29507663df arch/tile: minor whitespace/naming changes for string support files
Our internal process shares memcpy, memset, etc., with libc, and
we did some minor tweaking as part of moving from uclibc to glibc,
which is now reflected in the kernel versions of these files.

There are no semantic changes in this commit, just whitespace
(memcpy_32.S now properly uses tabs), naming (memmove.c instead
of memmove_32.c, since TILE-Gx shares the file with TILEPro),
and a couple of other minor tweaks.

233325b949 arch/tile: enable single-step support for TILE-Gx
This is not quite the complete support, since we're not yet shipping
intvec_64.S, but it is the support relevant to the set of files we are
currently shipping, and makes it easier to track changes between
our internal sources and our public GIT repository.

a78c942df6 arch/tile: parameterize system PLs to support KVM port
While not a port to KVM (yet), this change modifies the kernel
to be able to build either at PL1 or at PL2 with a suitable
config switch.  Pushing up this change avoids handling branch
merge issues going forward with the KVM work.

bf65e440e8 arch/tile: add Tilera's <arch/sim.h> header as an open-source header
This change adds one of the Tilera standard <arch> headers to the set
of headers shipped with Linux.  The <arch/sim.h> header provides
methods for programmatically interacting with the Tilera simulator.

The current <arch/sim.h> provides inline assembly for the _sim_syscall
function, so the declaration and definition previously provided
manually in Linux are no longer needed.  We now use the standard
sim_validate_lines_evicted() method from <arch/sim.h> rather than
rolling our own direct call to sim_syscall().

dabe98c972 arch/tile: prevent corrupt top frame from causing backtracer runaway
The backtracer will normally cut itself off after 100 frames anyway,
but it's messy.  With this change we notice that the frame being
reported is the same as the last one, and cut off the dump with a
message similar to what gdb displays in the same circumstance.

a4dbc5ee52 arch/tile: change lower bound on syscall error return to -4095
Previously we were using -1023, which is fine for normal syscall
error returns, but the common value in use for other platforms
is -4095, and one Tilera-specific driver does use values in the
-1100 range, so tickled this bug.

bbacff94d0 arch/tile: provide a definition of MAP_STACK
It's convenient for userspace (in particular, glibc) to find a
definition of MAP_STACK.  We use MAP_GROWSDOWN as an alias since
that's appropriate for the main stack, and since our current
allocation of mmap flags bits is running a bit short otherwise.

d929b6aeaa arch/tile: Use <asm-generic/syscalls.h>
With this change we now include <asm-generic/syscalls.h> into the "tile"
version of the header.  To take full advantage of the prototypes there,
we also change our naming convention for "struct pt_regs *" syscalls so
that, e.g., _sys_execve() is the "true" syscall entry, which sets the
appropriate register to point to the pt_regs before calling sys_execve().

While doing this I realized I no longer needed the fork and vfork
entry point stubs, since those functions aren't in the generic
syscall ABI, so I removed them as well.

5336377d62 modules: Fix module_bug_list list corruption race
With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.

However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling.  That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.

Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.

So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.

Future fixups:
 - move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
   belongs.
 - get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
   (called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
   for other reasons.

Previously it was based on the length of KBUILD_IMAGE (the unstripped ELF

loaded into a memory address higher then actually needed - a problem for
small memory platforms.

57cf4f78c6 MN10300: Fix flush_icache_range()
flush_icache_range() is given virtual addresses to describe the region.  It
deals with these by attempting to translate them through the current set of
page tables.

This is fine for userspace memory and vmalloc()'d areas as they are governed by
page tables.  However, since the regions above 0x80000000 aren't translated
through the page tables by the MMU, the kernel doesn't bother to set up page
tables for them (see paging_init()).

This means flush_icache_range() as it stands cannot be used to flush regions of
the VM area between 0x80000000 and 0x9fffffff where the kernel resides if the
data cache is operating in WriteBack mode.

To fix this, make flush_icache_range() first check for addresses in the upper
half of VM space and deal with them appropriately, before dealing with any
range in the page table mapped area.

Ordinarily, this is not a problem, but it has the capacity to make kprobes and
kgdb malfunction.  It should not affect gdbstub, signal frame setup or module
loading as gdb has its own flush functions, and the others take place in the
page table mapped area only.
