Hardware with MCA bus is limited to 386 and 486 class machines
that are now 20+ years old and typically with less than 32MB
of memory. A quick search on the internet, and you see that
even the MCA hobbyist/enthusiast community has lost interest
in the early 2000 era and never really even moved ahead from
the 2.4 kernels to the 2.6 series.
This deletes anything remaining related to CONFIG_MCA from core
kernel code and from the x86 architecture. There is no point in
carrying this any further into the future.
One complication to watch for is inadvertently scooping up
stuff relating to machine check, since there is overlap in
the TLA name space (e.g. arch/x86/boot/mca.c).

Pull build system failure fix from Michal Marek:
"This fixes build failure with newer gcc that adds some internal
symbols that end in "__mod_*_device_table", but are not actually the
tables themselves."

Fix modpost failures in fedora 17
The BCJ filters were meant to be enabled already on these
archs, but the xz_wrap.sh script was buggy. Enabling the
filters should give smaller kernel images.
xz_wrap.sh will now use $SRCARCH instead of $ARCH to detect
the architecture. That way it doesn't need to care about the
subarchs (like i386 vs. x86_64) since the BCJ filters don't
care either.

The symbol table on x86-64 starts to have entries that have names
like:
_GLOBAL__sub_I_65535_0___mod_x86cpu_device_table
They are of type STT_FUNCTION and this one had a length of 18. This
matched the device ID validation logic and it barfed because the
length did not meet the device type's criteria.
--------------------
FATAL: arch/x86/crypto/aesni-intel: sizeof(struct x86cpu_device_id)=16 is not a modulo of the size of section __mod_x86cpu_device_table=18.
Fix definition of struct x86cpu_device_id in mod_devicetable.h
--------------------
These are some kind of compiler tool internal stuff being emitted and
not something we want to inspect in modpost's device ID table
validation code.
So skip the symbol if it is not of type STT_OBJECT.

Commit f02e8a6596 ("module: Sort exported symbols") sorts symbols
placing each of them in its own elf section. This sorting and merging
into the canonical sections are done by the linker.
Unfortunately modpost to generate Module.symvers file parses vmlinux.o
(which is not linked yet) and all modules object files (which aren't
linked yet). These aren't sanitized by the linker yet. That breaks
modpost that can't detect license properly for modules.
This patch makes modpost aware of the new exported symbols structure.
[ This above is a slightly corrected version of the explanation of the
problem, copied from commit 62a2635610 ("modpost: Fix modpost's
license checking V3"). That commit fixed the problem for module
object files, but not for vmlinux.o. This patch fixes modpost for
vmlinux.o. ]

...
In some circumstances (eg when running a build in an emacs shell
buffer), I get a spew of messages like
grep: writing output: Broken pipe
from setlocalversion, because the "read" subshell apparently exits as
soon as it reads one line and gives EPIPE to grep. It's not clear to
me why this way of writing the check was used instead of just using
grep -q to suppress output, but unless there is some deep reason I
don't know, this way looks cleaner to me anyway, and gets rid of the
ugly message spew.
(I double checked at http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009604499/utilities/grep.html
and "grep -q" is specified in POSIX / SuS, so hopefully even people
cross-compiling the kernel on some bizarre host OS can't complain
about this change)

"echo -e" is a GNU extension. When cross-compiling the kernel on a
BSD-like operating system (Mac OS X in my case), this doesn't work.
One could install a GNU version of echo, put that in the $PATH before
the system echo and use "/usr/bin/env echo", but the solution with
printf is simpler.
Since it is no disadvantage on Linux, I hope that gets accepted even if
cross-compiling the Linux kernel on another Unix operating system is
quite a rare use case.

checkpatch already makes an exception to the 80-column rule for quoted
strings, and Documentation/CodingStyle recommends not splitting quoted
strings across lines, because it breaks the ability to grep for the
string. Rather than just permitting this, actively warn about quoted
strings split across lines.
Test case:
void context(void)
{
struct { unsigned magic; const char *strdata; } foo[] = {
{ 42, "these strings"
"do not produce warnings" },
{ 256, "though perhaps"
"they should" },
};
pr_err("this string"
" should produce a warning\n");
pr_err("this multi-line string\n"
"should not produce a warning\n");
asm ("this asm\n\t"
"should not produce a warning");
