26c57ef1ea watchdog: New watchdog driver for MEN A21 watchdogs
This patch adds the driver for the watchdog devices found on MEN Mikro
Elektronik A21 VMEbus CPU Carrier Boards. It has DT-support and uses the
watchdog framework.

6910ceb5ca Watchdog: fix clearing of the watchdog interrupt
The bits in BRIDGE_CAUSE are documented as RW0C - read, write 0 to
clear.  If we read the register, mask off the watchdog bit, and
write it back, we're actually clearing every interrupt which wasn't
pending at the time we read the register - and that is racy.

Fix this to only write ~WATCHDOG_BIT to the register, which means
we write as zero only the watchdog bit.

fa142ff5b3 Watchdog: allow orion_wdt to be built for Dove
The watchdog infrastructure in Dove is no different from that in
Orion5x or Kirkwood, so let's enable it for Dove.  The only things
missing are a few register settings in Dove's bridge-regs.h.

Rather than duplicating the same register bit masks for the RSTOUTn_MASK
and BRIDGE_CAUSE registers, move the definitions into the watchdog
driver itself.

6e63a3a294 watchdog: delete mpcore_wdt driver
Interrupt request doesn't use the right API: The TWD watchdog uses a per-cpu
interrupt (usually interrupt #30), and the GIC configuration should flag it as
such. With this setup, request_irq() should fail, and the right API is
request_percpu_irq(), together with enable_percpu_irq()/disable_percpu_irq().

Nothing ensures the userspace ioctl() will end-up kicking the watchdog on the
right CPU.

There are no users of this driver since a long time and it makes more sense to
get rid of it as nobody is looking to fix it.

In case somebody wakes up after this has been removed and needs it, please
revert this driver and pick these updates (These were never pushed to mainline):

fcf95670fd watchdog: core: don't try to stop device if not running
A watchdog device may be stopped from userspace using WDIOC_SETOPTIONS
ioctl and flag WDIOS_DISABLECARD. If the device is closed after this
operation, watchdog_release() is called and status bits checked for
stopping it. Besides, if the device has not been unregistered a critical
message "watchdog did not stop!" is printed, although the ioctl may have
successfully stopped it already.

Without the patch a user application sample code like this will successfully
stop the watchdog, but the kernel will output the message
"watchdog did not stop!":

	wd_fd = open("/dev/watchdog", O_RDWR);

	flags = WDIOS_DISABLECARD;
	ioctl(wd_fd, WDIOC_SETOPTIONS, &flags);

	close(wd_fd);

6d128e1e72 Revert "Makefile: Fix install error with make -j option"
This reverts commit d2aae8477c.

It is completely and utterly broken.  Module install should not build
any files, and adding broken dependencies to "help" it build files is
complete and utter sh*t.

The kernel should not be built by root, and "make install" and "make
module_install" (that for obvious reasons need to be run as root)
absolutely must not build any files.  They should only ever copy the
already-built files over.

So having dependencies for the install targets is wrong, wrong, wrong.

If you try to install a kernel without building it first, you *should*
get errors. The build system shouldn't try to help root build the files.

2b2811178e zswap: add to mm/
zswap is a thin backend for frontswap that takes pages that are in the
process of being swapped out and attempts to compress them and store
them in a RAM-based memory pool.  This can result in a significant I/O
reduction on the swap device and, in the case where decompressing from
RAM is faster than reading from the swap device, can also improve
workload performance.

It also has support for evicting swap pages that are currently
compressed in zswap to the swap device on an LRU(ish) basis.  This
functionality makes zswap a true cache in that, once the cache is full,
the oldest pages can be moved out of zswap to the swap device so newer
pages can be compressed and stored in zswap.

This patch adds the zswap driver to mm/

4e2e2770b1 zbud: add to mm/
zbud is an special purpose allocator for storing compressed pages.  It
is designed to store up to two compressed pages per physical page.
While this design limits storage density, it has simple and
deterministic reclaim properties that make it preferable to a higher
density approach when reclaim will be used.

zbud works by storing compressed pages, or "zpages", together in pairs
in a single memory page called a "zbud page".  The first buddy is "left
justifed" at the beginning of the zbud page, and the last buddy is
"right justified" at the end of the zbud page.  The benefit is that if
either buddy is freed, the freed buddy space, coalesced with whatever
slack space that existed between the buddies, results in the largest
possible free region within the zbud page.

zbud also provides an attractive lower bound on density.  The ratio of
zpages to zbud pages can not be less than 1.  This ensures that zbud can
never "do harm" by using more pages to store zpages than the
uncompressed zpages would have used on their own.

This implementation is a rewrite of the zbud allocator internally used
by zcache in the driver/staging tree.  The rewrite was necessary to
remove some of the zcache specific elements that were ingrained
throughout and provide a generic allocation interface that can later be
used by zsmalloc and others.

This patch adds zbud to mm/ for later use by zswap.
