Starting up the C compiler can be a slow operation on some systems.
Though these calls don't individually take a lot of time, they add up.
Rearrange the ARM Makefile a bit to avoid extra calls to the compiler
when they can be easily avoided.
When running with the Chrome OS ARM cross compiler
"armv7a-cros-linux-gnueabi-", this shaved .55 seconds (from 5.31
seconds to 4.76 seconds) off an incremental build of the kernel:
time make -j32 ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=armv7a-cros-linux-gnueabi-
Thanks to Mike Frysinger for the clean trick to make this work.

The %.dtb dependency is specified to depend on the PHONY "scripts".
That means that it'll build every time even if the underlying dtb file
hasn't been touched. Use an order-only prerequisites to fix this.
Also mark "dtbs" as PHONY for correctness.
This was broken in (70b0476 ARM: 7513/1: Make sure dtc is built before
running it).

Looking into the active_asids array is not enough, as we also need
to look into the reserved_asids array (they both represent processes
that are currently running).
Also, not holding the ASID allocator lock is racy, as another CPU
could schedule that process and trigger a rollover, making the erratum
workaround miss an IPI.
Exposing this outside of context.c is a little ugly on the side, so
let's define a new entry point that the erratum workaround can call
to obtain the cpumask.

On a CPU that never ran anything, both the active and reserved ASID
fields are set to zero. In this case the ASID_TO_IDX() macro will
return -1, which is not a very useful value to index a bitmap.
Instead of trying to offset the ASID so that ASID #1 is actually
bit 0 in the asid_map bitmap, just always ignore bit 0 and start
the search from bit 1. This makes the code a bit more readable,
and without risk of OoB access.

When a CPU is running a process, the ASID for that process is
held in a per-CPU variable (the "active ASIDs" array). When
the ASID allocator handles a rollover, it copies the active
ASIDs into a "reserved ASIDs" array to ensure that a process
currently running on another CPU will continue to run unaffected.
The active array is zero-ed to indicate that a rollover occurred.
Because of this mechanism, a reserved ASID is only remembered for
a single rollover. A subsequent rollover will completely refill
the reserved ASIDs array.
In a severely oversubscribed environment where a CPU can be
prevented from running for extended periods of time (think virtual
machines), the above has a horrible side effect:
[P{a} denotes process P running with ASID a]
CPU-0 CPU-1
A{x} [active = <x 0>]
[suspended] runs B{y} [active = <x y>]
[rollover:
active = <0 0>
reserved = <x y>]
runs B{y} [active = <0 y>
reserved = <x y>]
[rollover:
active = <0 0>
reserved = <0 y>]
runs C{x} [active = <0 x>]
[resumes]
runs A{x}
At that stage, both A and C have the same ASID, with deadly
consequences.
The fix is to preserve reserved ASIDs across rollovers if
the CPU doesn't have an active ASID when the rollover occurs.

When booting fewer cores than are physically present on a versatile
platform (e.g. when passing maxcpus=N on the command line), some
secondary cores may remain in the holding pen, which is marked __INIT,
as each CPU's gic cpumask is initialised to 0xff, and thus an IPI to any
CPU will wake up *all* secondaries. This behaviour is crucial to the GIC
cpumask self-discovery. Late in the boot process, the memory comprising
the holding pen will be released to the kernel for more general use, and
may be overwritten with arbitrary data, which can cause the held
secondaries to start behaving unpredictably. This can lead to all manner
of odd behaviour from the kernel.
As preventing cpus from entering the pen would require invasive changes
to the GIC driver and to existing dts used in the wild, we instead
remove the __INIT marker from the pen, keeping it around and leaving the
unused secondary CPUs dormant.

With this change, we no longer lose the innermost entry in the user-mode
part of the call chain. See also the x86 port, which includes the ip.
It's possible to partially work around this problem by post-processing
the data to use the PERF_SAMPLE_IP value, but this works only if the CPU
wasn't in the kernel when the sample was taken.

Since commit 6a1c53124aa1 the user writeable TLS register was zeroed to
prevent it from being used as a covert channel between two tasks.
There are more and more applications coming to Windows RT,
Wine could support them, but mostly they expect to have
the thread environment block (TEB) in TPIDRURW.
This patch preserves that register per thread instead of clearing it.
Unlike the TPIDRURO, which is already switched, the TPIDRURW
can be updated from userspace so needs careful treatment in the case that we
modify TPIDRURW and call fork(). To avoid this we must always read
TPIDRURW in copy_thread.

This commit fixes the regression on Armada 370 (the kernal hang during
boot) introduced by the commit: "ARM: 7691/1: mm: kill unused
TLB_CAN_READ_FROM_L1_CACHE and use ALT_SMP instead".
When coming out of either a Wait for Interrupt (WFI) or a Wait for
Event (WFE) IDLE states, a specific timing sensitivity exists between
the retiring WFI/WFE instructions and the newly issued subsequent
instructions. This sensitivity can result in a CPU hang scenario. The
workaround is to insert either a Data Synchronization Barrier (DSB) or
Data Memory Barrier (DMB) command immediately after the WFI/WFE
instruction.
This commit was based on the work of Lior Amsalem, but heavily
modified to apply the errata fix dynamically according to the
processor type thanks to the suggestions of Russell King and Nicolas
Pitre.

The __cpu_logical_map array is statically initialized to 0, which is a valid
MPIDR value. To prevent issues with the current implementation, this patch
defines an MPIDR_INVALID value, and statically initializes the
__cpu_logical_map[] array to it. Entries in the arm_dt_init_cpu_maps()
tmp_map array used to stash DT reg properties while parsing DT are initialized
with the MPIDR_INVALID value as well for consistency.

The introduction of the cpu-map topology node in the cpus node implies
that cpus node might have children that are not cpu nodes. The DT
parsing code needs updating otherwise it would check for cpu nodes
properties in nodes that are not required to contain them, resulting
in warnings that have no bearing on bindings defined in the dts source file.

As it was already suggested by Russell King and Arnd Bergmann:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/5/16/133
moxart and gemini seem to be the only platforms using CPU_FA526,
and instead of pointing arm_pm_idle to an empty function from
platform code, it makes sense to remove WFI code from the processor
specific idle function.
Applies to arm-soc/for-next (and 3.10-rc1).
Changes since v1:
1. remove WFI but make sure cpu_fa526_do_idle do not fall through
to cpu_fa526_dcache_clean_area
Note: moxart boots and prints to UART without this patch, but input is broken.

The following change fixes the x86 implementation of
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace(), which was previously (accidentally,
as far as I can tell) disabled to always return false as on
architectures that do not implement this function.
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace(), as defined in include/linux/nmi.h,
should call arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() if available, or
return false if the underlying arch doesn't implement this
function.
x86 did provide a suitable arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
implementation, but it wasn't actually being used because it was
declared in asm/nmi.h, which linux/nmi.h doesn't include. Also,
linux/nmi.h couldn't easily be fixed by including asm/nmi.h,
because that file is not available on all architectures.
I am proposing to fix this by moving the x86 definition of
arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() to asm/irq.h.
Tested via: echo l > /proc/sysrq-trigger
Before the change, this uses a fallback implementation which
shows backtraces on active CPUs (using
smp_call_function_interrupt() )
After the change, this shows NMI backtraces on all CPUs

Book3E uses the hugepd at PMD level and don't encode pte directly
at the pmd level. So it will find the lower bits of pmd set
and the pmd_bad check throws error. Infact the current code
will never take the free_hugepd_range call at all because it will
clear the pmd if it find a hugepd pointer. Fix this by clearing
bad pmd only if it is not a hugepd pointer.

We are in the process of removing all the __cpuinit annotations.
While working on making that change, an existing problem was
made evident:
WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x198f2): Section mismatch
in reference from the function cpu_init() to the function
.init.text:load_ucode_ap() The function cpu_init() references
the function __init load_ucode_ap(). This is often because cpu_init
lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of load_ucode_ap is wrong.
This now appears because in my working tree, cpu_init() is no longer
tagged as __cpuinit, and so the audit picks up the mismatch. The 2nd
hypothesis from the audit is the correct one, as there was an incorrect
__init tag on the prototype in the header (but __cpuinit was used on
the function itself.)
The audit is telling us that the prototype's __init annotation took
effect and the function did land in the .init.text section. Checking
with objdump on a mainline tree that still has __cpuinit shows that
the __cpuinit on the function takes precedence over the __init on the
prototype, but that won't be true once we make __cpuinit a no-op.
Even though we are removing __cpuinit, we temporarily align both
the function and the prototype on __cpuinit so that the changeset
can be applied to stable trees if desired.

kernel might hung in pvclock_clocksource_read() due to
uninitialized memory might contain odd version value in
following cycle:
do {
version = __pvclock_read_cycles(src, &ret, &flags);
} while ((src->version & 1) || version != src->version);
if secondary kvmclock is accessed before it's registered with kvm.
Clear garbage in pvclock shared memory area right after it's
allocated to avoid this issue.

kwmppc_lazy_ee_enable() should be called as late as possible,
or else we get things like WARN_ON(preemptible()) in enable_kernel_fp()
in configurations where preemptible() works.
Note that book3s_pr already waits until just before __kvmppc_vcpu_run
to call kvmppc_lazy_ee_enable().

This fixes a race where a cpu may re-load a tlb from a stale tsb right
after it has been flushed by a remote function call.
I still see some instability when stressing the system with parallel
kernel builds while creating memory pressure by writing to
/proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages, but this patch improves the stability
significantly.

Commit 75096579c3ac ("lib: devres: Introduce devm_ioremap_resource()")
introduced devm_ioremap_resource() and deprecated the use of
devm_request_and_ioremap().
While at it, also remove the error message as devm_ioremap_resource()
also prints similar error message.

The Machine Description (MD) property "address-congruence-offset" is
optional. According to the MD specification the value is assumed 0UL when
not present. This caused early boot failure on T5.

This enables interrupts for Leon before having the CPU enter power-down mode.
Commit 87fa05aeb3a5e8e21b1a5510eef6983650eff092, "sparc: Use generic idle loop",
gets the CPU stuck on idle for Leon systems. On Leon, disabling interrupts and
powering down the processor will get the processor stuck waiting for an
interrupt that will never be reacted to.

This reduces the need from two timers to one timer.
Moreover, without this patch, when the "ticker" timer triggers timer_cs_read via
tick_periodic it reads the value of the usual timer it can get an wrapped timer
value without timer_cs_internal_counter having been updated leading to the clock
going backwards. This effectively hangs one cpu that gets stuck in
update_wall_time with an offset slightly smaller than 0xffffffffffffffff.

'boot_command_line' and 'full_boot_str' has a fix length, 'cmdline_p' and
'boot_command' maybe larger than them. So use strlcpy() instead of strcpy()
to avoid memory overflow.

outside looping
When "cp >= barg_buf + BARG_LEN-2", it breaks internel looping 'while',
but outside loop 'for' still has effect, so "*cp++ = ' '" will continue
repeating which may cause memory overflow.
So need additional length check for it in the outside looping.
Also beautify the related code which found by "./scripts/checkpatch.pl"
