b5ee900258 [ARM] remove a common set of __virt_to_bus definitions
Let's provide an overridable default instead of having every machine
class define __virt_to_bus and __bus_to_virt to the same thing.  What
most platforms are using is bus_addr == phys_addr so such is the default.

One exception is ebsa110 which has no DMA what so ever, so the actual
definition is not important except only for proper compilation.  Also
added a comment about the special footbridge bus translation.

Let's also remove comments alluding to set_dma_addr which is not
(and should not) be commonly used.

4b5f32cee0 [ARM] rationalize memory configuration code some more
Currently there are two instances of struct meminfo: one in
kernel/setup.c marked __initdata, and another in mm/init.c with
permanent storage.  Let's keep only the later to directly populate
the permanent version from arm_add_memory().

Also move common validation tests between the MMU and non-MMU cases
into arm_add_memory() to remove some duplication.  Protection against
overflowing the membank array is also moved in there in order to cover
the kernel cmdline parsing path as well.

063b0a4207 [ARM] copypage: provide our own copy_user_highpage()
We used to override the copy_user_page() function.  However, this
is not only inefficient, it also causes additional complexity for
highmem support, since we convert from a struct page to a kernel
direct mapped address and back to a struct page again.

Moreover, with highmem support, we end up pointlessly setting up
kmap entries for pages which we're going to remap.  So, push the
kmapping down into the copypage implementation files where it's
required.

487ff32082 Allow architectures to override copy_user_highpage()
With aliasing VIPT cache support, the ARM implementation of
clear_user_page() and copy_user_page() sets up a temporary kernel space
mapping such that we have the same cache colour as the userspace page.
This avoids having to consider any userspace aliases from this operation.

However, when highmem is enabled, kmap_atomic() have to setup mappings.
The copy_user_highpage() and clear_user_highpage() call these functions
before delegating the copies to copy_user_page() and clear_user_page().

The effect of this is that each of the *_user_highpage() functions setup
their own kmap mapping, followed by the *_user_page() functions setting
up another mapping.  This is rather wasteful.

Thankfully, copy_user_highpage() can be overriden by architectures by
defining __HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE.  However, replacement of
clear_user_highpage() is more difficult because its inline definition
is not conditional.  It seems that you're expected to define
__HAVE_ARCH_ALLOC_ZEROED_USER_HIGHPAGE and provide a replacement
__alloc_zeroed_user_highpage() implementation instead.

The allocation itself is fine, so we don't want to override that.  What
we really want to do is to override clear_user_highpage() with our own
version which doesn't kmap_atomic() unnecessarily.

Other VIPT architectures (PARISC and SH) would also like to override
this function as well.

52b19ac993 udf: Fix BUG_ON() in destroy_inode()
udf_clear_inode() can leave behind buffers on mapping's i_private list (when
we truncated preallocation). Call invalidate_inode_buffers() so that the list
is properly cleaned-up before we return from udf_clear_inode(). This is ugly
and suggest that we should cleanup preallocation earlier than in clear_inode()
but currently there's no such call available since drop_inode() is called under
inode lock and thus is unusable for disk operations.

Impact: fix boot crash on AMD IOMMU if CONFIG_GART_IOMMU is off

Currently these macros evaluate to a no-op except the kernel is compiled
with GART or Calgary support. But we also need these macros when we have
SWIOTLB, VT-d or AMD IOMMU in the kernel. Since we always compile at
least with SWIOTLB we can define these macros always.

This patch is also for stable backport for the same reason the SWIOTLB
default selection patch is.

The faulting instruction is the storage key operation (iske) in
ptep_rcp_copy (called by pte_clear, called by unmap_vmas). iske
reads dirty and reference bit information for a physical page and
requires a valid physical address. Since we are in pte_clear, we
cannot rely on the pte containing a valid address. Fortunately we
dont need these information in pte_clear - after all there is no
mapping. The best fix is to remove the needless call to ptep_rcp_copy
that contains the iske.

subtracts jiffies_timer_cc.
jiffies_timer_cc is a local variable in arch/s390/kernel/time.c and only used
for sched_clock and monotonic clock. For historical reasons there is an offset
on that value. With todays code this offset is unnecessary. By removing that
offset we can get a sched_clock which returns the nanoseconds after time_init.
This improves CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME.

Since sched_clock is the only user, I have also renamed jiffies_timer_cc to
sched_clock_base_cc. In addition, the local variable init_timer_cc is redundant
and can be romved as well.

59da21398e [S390] fix system call parameter functions.
syscall_get_nr() currently returns a valid result only if the call
chain of the traced process includes do_syscall_trace_enter(). But
collect_syscall() can be called for any sleeping task, the result of
syscall_get_nr() in general is completely bogus.

To make syscall_get_nr() work for any sleeping task the traps field
in pt_regs is replace with svcnr - the system call number the process
is executing. If svcnr == 0 the process is not on a system call path.

The syscall_get_arguments and syscall_set_arguments use regs->gprs[2]
for the first system call parameter. This is incorrect since gprs[2]
may have been overwritten with the system call number if the call
chain includes do_syscall_trace_enter. Use regs->orig_gprs2 instead.

4cd4262034 sched: prevent divide by zero error in cpu_avg_load_per_task
Impact: fix divide by zero crash in scheduler rebalance irq

While testing the branch profiler, I hit this crash:

 [<ffffffff8020e4b3>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x13/0x20

The code for cpu_avg_load_per_task has:

	if (rq->nr_running)
		rq->avg_load_per_task = rq->load.weight / rq->nr_running;

The runqueue lock is not held here, and there is nothing that prevents
the rq->nr_running from going to zero after it passes the if condition.

The branch profiler simply made the race window bigger.

This patch saves off the rq->nr_running to a local variable and uses that
for both the condition and the division.

e899b6485c ACPICA: disable _BIF warning
A generic work-around from ACPICA is in the queue,
but since Linux has a work-around in its battery
driver, we can disable this warning now.
