On DT-enabled systems pinctrl-exynos driver is responsible for handling
of wake-up EINT interrupts. This patch adjusts wake-up mask
configuration code to take wake-up mask value from pinctrl-exynos driver
on DT-enabled systems.

This patch fixes a bug introduced in the v3.10 merge window.
The AB8500 External Regulator driver has recently landed upstream,
which registers each of the 3 external regulators located on the
AB8500. If these regulators are marked as 'always on', there is a
potential for power-loss. If they're not and are seemingly unused
the Regulator subsystem will attempt to disable them to save power.
This causes an issue for AUX1, AUX2 and AUX3 as they obtain their
power from EXT3. So we're specifying that here to prevent EXT3 from
being powered down.

Multiplatform calls all enabled platforms' initcalls. In the
ux500_idle_init() initcall we call into the DBx500-PRCMU which in turn
executes some ux500 specific register reads/writes. When running on
some !ux500 platforms this ends up causing a kernel Oops. This patch
ensures the PRCMU call is only invoked when running on ux500 based
platforms.

IPIs might be lost when a cpu gets brought offline:
When stop_machine executes its state machine there is a race window
for the state STOPMACHINE_DISABLE_IRQ where the to be brought offline
cpu might already have irqs disabled but a different cpu still may
have irqs enabled.
If the enabled cpu receives an interrupt and as a result sends an IPI
to the to be offlined cpu in its bottom halve context, the IPI won't
be noticed before the cpu is offline.
In fact the race window is much larger since there is no guarantee
when an IPI will be received.
To fix this check for enqueued but not yet received IPIs in the
cpu_disable() path and call the respective handlers before the cpu
is marked offline.

gdbserver inserting a breakpoint ends up calling copy_user_page() for a
code page. The generic version of which (non-aliasing config) didn't set
the PG_arch_1 bit hence update_mmu_cache() didn't sync dcache/icache for
corresponding dynamic loader code page - causing garbade to be executed.
So now aliasing versions of copy_user_highpage()/clear_page() are made
default. There is no significant overhead since all of special alias
handling code is compiled out for non-aliasing build

The logic to detect if the irq stack was already in use with
raw_spin_trylock() is wrong, because it will generate a "trylock failure
on UP" error message with CONFIG_SMP=n and CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y.
arch_spin_trylock() can't be used either since in the CONFIG_SMP=n case
no atomic protection is given and we are reentrant here. A mutex didn't
worked either and brings more overhead by turning off interrupts.
So, let's use the fastest path for parisc which is the ldcw instruction.
Counting how often the irq stack was used is pretty useless, so just
drop this piece of code.

The get_stack_use_cr30 and get_stack_use_r30 macros allocate a stack
frame for external interrupts and interruptions requiring a stack frame.
They are currently not reentrant in that they save register context
before the stack is set or adjusted.
I have observed a number of system crashes where there was clear
evidence of stack corruption during interrupt processing, and as a
result register corruption. Some interruptions can still occur during
interruption processing, however external interrupts are disabled and
data TLB misses don't occur for absolute accesses. So, it's not entirely
clear what triggers this issue. Also, if an interruption occurs when
Q=0, it is generally not possible to recover as the shadowed registers
are not copied.
The attached patch reworks the get_stack_use_cr30 and get_stack_use_r30
macros to allocate stack before doing register saves. The new code is a
couple of instructions shorter than the old implementation. Thus, it's
an improvement even if it doesn't fully resolve the stack corruption
issue. Based on limited testing, it improves SMP system stability.

Recent commit e61133dda480062d221f09e4fc18f66763f8ecd0 added support
for a new firmware feature to force an adapter to use 32 bit MSIs.
However, this firmware is not available for all systems. The hack below
allows devices needing 32 bit MSIs to work on these systems as well.
It is careful to only enable this on Gen2 slots, which should limit
this to configurations where this hack is needed and tested to work.

The VM_EXEC check in update_mmu_cache() was getting optimized away
because of a stupid error in definition of macro addr_not_cache_congruent()
The intention was to have the equivalent of following:
if (a || (1 ? b : 0))
but we ended up with following:
if (a || 1 ? b : 0)
And because precedence of '||' is more that that of '?', gcc was optimizing
away evaluation of <a>
Nasty Repercussions:
1. For non-aliasing configs it would mean some extraneous dcache flushes
for non-code pages if U/K mappings were not congruent.
2. For aliasing config, some needed dcache flush for code pages might
be missed if U/K mappings were congruent.

ARC700 MMU provides fully orthogonal permission bits per page:
Ur, Uw, Ux, Kr, Kw, Kx
The user mode page permission templates used to have all Kernel mode
access bits enabled.
This caused a tricky race condition observed with uClibc buffered file
read and UNIX pipes.
1. Read access to an anon mapped page in libc .bss: write-protected
zero_page mapped: TLB Entry installed with Ur + K[rwx]
2. grep calls libc:getc() -> buffered read layer calls read(2) with the
internal read buffer in same .bss page.
The read() call is on STDIN which has been redirected to a pipe.
read(2) => sys_read() => pipe_read() => copy_to_user()
3. Since page has Kernel-write permission (despite being user-mode
write-protected), copy_to_user() suceeds w/o taking a MMU TLB-Miss
Exception (page-fault for ARC). core-MM is unaware that kernel
erroneously wrote to the reserved read-only zero-page (BUG #1)
4. Control returns to userspace which now does a write to same .bss page
Since Linux MM is not aware that page has been modified by kernel, it
simply reassigns a new writable zero-init page to mapping, loosing the
prior write by kernel - effectively zero'ing out the libc read buffer
under the hood - hence grep doesn't see right data (BUG #2)
The fix is to make all kernel-mode access permissions mirror the
user-mode ones. Note that the kernel still has full access to pages,
when accessed directly (w/o MMU) - this fix ensures that kernel-mode
access in copy_to_from() path uses the same faulting access model as for
pure user accesses to keep MM fully aware of page state.
The issue is peudo-random because it only shows up if the TLB entry
installed in #1 is present at the time of #3. If it is evicted out, due
to TLB pressure or some-such, then copy_to_user() does take a TLB Miss
Exception, with a routine write-to-anon COW processing installing a
fresh page for kernel writes and also usable as it is in userspace.
Further the issue was dormant for so long as it depends on where the
libc internal read buffer (in .bss) is mapped at runtime.
If it happens to reside in file-backed data mapping of libc (in the
page-aligned slack space trailing the file backed data), loader zero
padding the slack space, does the early cow page replacement, setting
things up at the very beginning itself.
With gcc 4.8 based builds, the libc buffer got pushed out to a real
anon mapping which triggers the issue.

Flush and INVALIDATE the dcache page.
This helper is only used for writeback of CODE pages to memory. So
there's no value in keeping the dcache lines around. Infact it is risky
as a writeback on natural eviction under pressure can cause un-needed
writeback with weird issues on aliasing dcache configurations.

As pll5_video_div has been introduced to represent the clock
generated from post-divider for video.
Instead of pll5_video, pll5_video_div should be proper root clock
for ldb_di_sel.

Pull MIPS update from Ralf Baechle:
- Fix a build error if <linux/printk.h> is included without
<linux/linkage.h> having been included before.
- Cleanup and fix the damage done by the generic idle loop patch.
- A kprobes fix that brings the MIPS code in line with what other
architectures are for quite a while already.
- Wire up the native getdents64(2) syscall for 64 bit - for some reason
it was only for the compat ABIs. This has been reported to cause an
application issue. This turned out bigger than I meant but the wait
instruction support code was driving me nuts.
* 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus:
MIPS: N64: Wire getdents64(2)
kprobes/mips: Fix to check double free of insn slot
MIPS: Idle: Break r4k_wait into two functions and fix it.
MIPS: Idle: Do address fiddlery in helper functions.
MIPS: Idle: Consolidate all declarations in <asm/idle.h>.
MIPS: Idle: Don't call local_irq_disable() in cpu_wait() implementations.
MIPS: Idle: Re-enable irqs at the end of r3081, au1k and loongson2 cpu_wait.
MIPS: Idle: Make call of function pointer readable.
MIPS: Idle: Consistently reformat inline assembler.
MIPS: Idle: cleaup SMTC idle hook as per Linux coding style.
MIPS: Consolidate idle loop / WAIT instruction support in a single file.
MIPS: clock.h: Remove declaration of cpu_wait.
Add include dependencies to <linux/printk.h>.
MIPS: Rewrite pfn_valid to work in modules, too.

Commit d3f79584a8b5 ("ARM: cleanup undefined instruction entry code")
improved the register scheduling when handling undefined instructions.
A side effect of this is that r5 is now used as a temporary, whilst the
VFP probing code relies on r5 containing a non-zero value when VFP is
not supported.
This patch fixes the VFP detection code so that we don't rely on the
contents of r5. Without this patch, Linux dies loudly on CPUs without
VFP support.
