9403408e12 tick: Remove unnused tick_nohz_get_idle_calls()
The function returns the idle calls counter for the current cpu and
therefore usually isn't what the caller wants. It is unnused since

02ecee07ca timekeeping: Add function to convert realtime to base clock
PPS (Pulse Per Second) generates a hardware pulse every second based on
CLOCK_REALTIME. This works fine when the pulse is generated in software
from a hrtimer callback function.

For hardware which generates the pulse by programming a timer it is
required to convert CLOCK_REALTIME to the underlying hardware clock.

The X86 Timed IO device is based on the Always Running Timer (ART), which
is the base clock of the TSC, which is usually the system clocksource on
X86.

The core code already has functionality to convert base clock timestamps to
system clocksource timestamps, but there is no support for converting the
other way around.

Provide the required functionality to support such devices in a generic
way to avoid code duplication in drivers:

  1) ktime_real_to_base_clock() to convert a CLOCK_REALTIME timestamp to a
     base clock timestamp

  2) timekeeping_clocksource_has_base() to allow drivers to validate that
     the system clocksource is based on a particular clocksource ID.

[ tglx: Simplify timekeeping_clocksource_has_base() and add missing READ_ONCE() ]

6b2e299775 timekeeping: Provide infrastructure for converting to/from a base clock
Hardware time stamps like provided by PTP clock implementations are based
on a clock which feeds both the PCIe device and the system clock. For
further processing the underlying hardwarre clock timestamp must be
converted to the system clock.

Right now this requires drivers to invoke an architecture specific
conversion function, e.g. to convert the ART (Always Running Timer)
timestamp to a TSC timestamp.

As the system clock is aware of the underlying base clock, this can be
moved to the core code by providing a base clock property for the system
clock which contains the conversion factors and assigning a clocksource ID
to the base clock.

Add the required data structures and the conversion infrastructure in the
core code to prepare for converting X86 and the related PTP drivers over.

91b6163be4 sysctl changes for v6.10-rc1
Summary
 * Removed sentinel elements from ctl_table structs in kernel/*
 
   Removing sentinels in ctl_table arrays reduces the build time size and
   runtime memory consumed by ~64 bytes per array. Removals for net/, io_uring/,
   mm/, ipc/ and security/ are set to go into mainline through their respective
   subsystems making the next release the most likely place where the final
   series that removes the check for proc_name == NULL will land. This PR adds
   to removals already in arch/, drivers/ and fs/.
 
 * Adjusted ctl_table definitions and references to allow constification
 
   Adjustments:
     - Removing unused ctl_table function arguments
     - Moving non-const elements from ctl_table to ctl_table_header
     - Making ctl_table pointers const in ctl_table_root structure
 
   Making the static ctl_table structs const will increase safety by keeping the
   pointers to proc_handler functions in .rodata. Though no ctl_tables where
   made const in this PR, the ground work for making that possible has started
   with these changes sent by Thomas Weißschuh.
 
 Testing
 * These changes went into linux-next after v6.9-rc4; giving it a good month of
   testing.

2d9db778dd Timers and timekeeping updates:
- Core code:
 
    - Make timekeeping and VDSO time readouts resilent against math overflow:
 
      In guest context the kernel is prone to math overflow when the host
      defers the timer interrupt due to overload, malfunction or malice.
 
      This can be mitigated by checking the clocksource delta for the
      maximum deferrement which is readily available. If that value is
      exceeded then the code uses a slowpath function which can handle the
      multiplication overflow.
 
      This functionality is enabled unconditionally in the kernel, but made
      conditional in the VDSO code. The latter is conditional because it
      allows architectures to optimize the check so it is not causing
      performance regressions.
 
      On X86 this is achieved by reworking the existing check for negative
      TSC deltas as a negative delta obviously exceeds the maximum
      deferrement when it is evaluated as an unsigned value. That avoids two
      conditionals in the hotpath and allows to hide both the negative delta
      and the large delta handling in the same slow path.
 
    - Add an initial minimal ktime_t abstraction for Rust
 
    - The usual boring cleanups and enhancements
 
  - Drivers:
 
    - Boring updates to device trees and trivial enhancements in various
      drivers.

d0304569fb clocksource: Make watchdog and suspend-timing multiplication overflow safe
Kernel timekeeping is designed to keep the change in cycles (since the last
timer interrupt) below max_cycles, which prevents multiplication overflow
when converting cycles to nanoseconds. However, if timer interrupts stop,
the clocksource_cyc2ns() calculation will eventually overflow.

Add protection against that. Simplify by folding together
clocksource_delta() and clocksource_cyc2ns() into cycles_to_nsec_safe().
Check against max_cycles, falling back to a slower higher precision
calculation.

135225a363 timekeeping: Let timekeeping_cycles_to_ns() handle both under and overflow
For the case !CONFIG_CLOCKSOURCE_VALIDATE_LAST_CYCLE, forego overflow
protection in the range (mask << 1) < delta <= mask, and interpret it
always as an inconsistency between CPU clock values. That allows
slightly neater code, and it is on a slow path so has no effect on
performance.

7a96a84bfb timers/migration: Return early on deactivation
Commit 4b6f4c5a67 ("timer/migration: Remove buggy early return on
deactivation") removed the logic to return early in tmigr_update_events()
on deactivation. With this the problem with a not properly updated first
global event in a hierarchy containing only a single group was fixed.

But when having a look at this code path with a hierarchy with more than a
single level, now unnecessary work is done (example is partially copied
from the message of the commit mentioned above):

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = GRP0:0
                         active   = GRP0:0
                         nextevt  = T0:0i, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = 0              migrator = NONE
           active   = 0              active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T0i, T1        nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
      active         idle            idle       idle

0) CPU 0 is active thus its event is ignored (the letter 'i') and so are
upper levels' events. CPU 1 is idle and has the timer T1 enqueued.
CPU 2 also has a timer. The expiry order is T0 (ignored) < T1 < T2

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = GRP0:0
                         active   = GRP0:0
                         nextevt  = T0:0i, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
           active   = NONE           active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T1             nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
        idle         idle            idle         idle

1) CPU 0 goes idle without global event queued. Therefore KTIME_MAX is
pushed as its next expiry and its own event kept as "ignore". Without this
early return the following steps happen in tmigr_update_events() when
child = null and group = GRP0:0 :

  lock(GRP0:0->lock);
  timerqueue_del(GRP0:0, T0i);
  unlock(GRP0:0->lock);


                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = NONE
                         active   = NONE
                         nextevt  = T0:0, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
           active   = NONE           active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T1             nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
        idle         idle            idle         idle

2) The change now propagates up to the top. Then tmigr_update_events()
updates the group event of GRP0:0 and executes the following steps
(child = GRP0:0 and group = GRP0:0):

  lock(GRP0:0->lock);
  lock(GRP1:0->lock);
  evt = tmigr_next_groupevt(GRP0:0); -> this removes the ignored events
					in GRP0:0
  ... update GRP1:0 group event and timerqueue ...
  unlock(GRP1:0->lock);
  unlock(GRP0:0->lock);

So the dance in 1) with locking the GRP0:0->lock and removing the T0i from
the timerqueue is redundand as this is done nevertheless in 2) when
tmigr_next_groupevt(GRP0:0) is executed.

Revert commit 4b6f4c5a67 ("timer/migration: Remove buggy early return on
deactivation") and add a condition into return path to skip the return
only, when hierarchy contains a single group. Adapt comments accordingly.

61f7fdf8fd timers/migration: Fix ignored event due to missing CPU update
When a group event is updated with its expiry unchanged but a different
CPU, that target change may go unnoticed and the event may be propagated
up with a stale CPU value. The following depicts a scenario that has
been actually observed:

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = TGRP1:0 (T0)
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T0
      /         \
    0 (T0)       1 (T1)
    idle         idle

0) The hierarchy has 3 levels. The left part (GRP1:0) is all idle,
including CPU 0 and CPU 1 which have a timer each: T0 and T1. They have
the same expiry value.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T0
      /         \
    0 (T0)       1 (T1)
    idle         idle

1) The migrator in GRP1:1 handles remotely T0. The event is dequeued
from the top and T0 executed.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T1
      /         \
    0            1 (T1)
    idle         idle

2) The migrator in GRP1:1 fetches the next timer for CPU 0 and finds
none. But it updates the events from its groups, starting with GRP0:0
which now has T1 as its next event. So far so good.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T1
      /         \
    0            1 (T1)
    idle         idle

3) The migrator in GRP1:1 proceeds upward and updates the events in
GRP1:0. The child event TGRP0:0 is found queued with the same expiry
as before. And therefore it is left unchanged. However the target CPU
is not the same but that fact is ignored so TGRP0:0 still points to
CPU 0 when it should point to CPU 1.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = TGRP1:0 (T0)
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \
        [GRP0:0]       [...]
      migrator = NONE
      active   = NONE
      nextevt  = T1
      /         \
    0            1 (T1)
    idle         idle

4) The propagation has reached the top level and TGRP1:0, having TGRP0:0
as its first event, also wrongly points to CPU 0. TGRP1:0 is added to
the top level group.

                       [GRP2:0]
                   migrator = GRP1:1
                   active   = GRP1:1
                   nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
                    /              \
               [GRP1:0]           [GRP1:1]
            migrator = NONE       [...]
            active   = NONE
            nextevt  = TGRP0:0 (T0)
            /           \

      /         \
    0            1 (T1)
    idle         idle

5) The migrator in GRP1:1 dequeues the next event in top level pointing
to CPU 0. But since it actually doesn't see any real event in CPU 0, it
early returns.

6) T1 is left unhandled until either CPU 0 or CPU 1 wake up.

Some other bad scenario may involve trees with just two levels.

Fix this with unconditionally updating the CPU of the child event before
considering to early return while updating a queued event with an
unchanged expiry value.

70293240c5 Two regression fixes for the timer and timer migration code:
1) Prevent endless timer requeuing which is caused by two CPUs racing out
      of idle. This happens when the last CPU goes idle and therefore has to
      ensure to expire the pending global timers and some other CPU come out
      of idle at the same time and the other CPU wins the race and expires
      the global queue. This causes the last CPU to chase ghost timers
      forever and reprogramming it's clockevent device endlessly.
 
      Cure this by re-evaluating the wakeup time unconditionally.
 
   2) The split into local (pinned) and global timers in the timer wheel
      caused a regression for NOHZ full as it broke the idle tracking of
      global timers. On NOHZ full this prevents an self IPI being sent which
      in turn causes the timer to be not programmed and not being expired on
      time.
 
      Restore the idle tracking for the global timer base so that the self
      IPI condition for NOHZ full is working correctly again.

0387703986 timers: Fix removed self-IPI on global timer's enqueue in nohz_full
While running in nohz_full mode, a task may enqueue a timer while the
tick is stopped. However the only places where the timer wheel,
alongside the timer migration machinery's decision, may reprogram the
next event accordingly with that new timer's expiry are the idle loop or
any IRQ tail.

However neither the idle task nor an interrupt may run on the CPU if it
resumes busy work in userspace for a long while in full dynticks mode.

To solve this, the timer enqueue path raises a self-IPI that will
re-evaluate the timer wheel on its IRQ tail. This asynchronous solution
avoids potential locking inversion.

This is supposed to happen both for local and global timers but commit:

	b2cf7507e1 ("timers: Always queue timers on the local CPU")

broke the global timers case with removing the ->is_idle field handling
for the global base. As a result, global timers enqueue may go unnoticed
in nohz_full.

Fix this with restoring the idle tracking of the global timer's base,
allowing self-IPIs again on enqueue time.

f55acb1e44 timers/migration: Fix endless timer requeue after idle interrupts
When a CPU is an idle migrator, but another CPU wakes up before it,
becomes an active migrator and handles the queue, the initial idle
migrator may end up endlessly reprogramming its clockevent, chasing ghost
timers forever such as in the following scenario:

               [GRP0:0]
             migrator = 0
             active   = 0
             nextevt  = T1
              /         \
             0           1
          active        idle (T1)

0) CPU 1 is idle and has a timer queued (T1), CPU 0 is active and is
the active migrator.

               [GRP0:0]
             migrator = NONE
             active   = NONE
             nextevt  = T1
              /         \
             0           1
          idle        idle (T1)
          wakeup = T1

1) CPU 0 is now idle and is therefore the idle migrator. It has
programmed its next timer interrupt to handle T1.

                [GRP0:0]
             migrator = 1
             active   = 1
             nextevt  = KTIME_MAX
              /         \
             0           1
          idle        active
          wakeup = T1

2) CPU 1 has woken up, it is now active and it has just handled its own
timer T1.

3) CPU 0 gets a timer interrupt to handle T1 but tmigr_handle_remote()
realize it is not the migrator anymore. So it early returns without
observing that T1 has been expired already and therefore without
updating its ->wakeup value.

4) CPU 0 goes into tmigr_cpu_new_timer() which also early returns
because it doesn't queue a timer of its own. So ->wakeup is left
unchanged and the next timer is programmed to fire now.

5) goto 3) forever

This results in timer interrupt storms in idle and also in nohz_full (as
observed in rcutorture's TREE07 scenario).

Fix this with forcing a re-evaluation of tmc->wakeup while trying
remote timer handling when the CPU isn't the migrator anymmore. The
check is inherently racy but in the worst case the CPU just races setting
the KTIME_MAX value that a remote expiry also tries to set.

4b6f4c5a67 timer/migration: Remove buggy early return on deactivation
When a CPU enters into idle and deactivates itself from the timer
migration hierarchy without any global timer of its own to propagate,
the group event of that CPU is set to "ignore" and tmigr_update_events()
accordingly performs an early return without considering timers queued
by other CPUs.

If the hierarchy has a single level, and the CPU is the last one to
enter idle, it will ignore others' global timers, as in the following
layout:

           [GRP0:0]
         migrator = 0
         active   = 0
         nextevt  = T0i
          /         \
         0           1
      active (T0i)  idle (T1)

0) CPU 0 is active thus its event is ignored (the letter 'i') and so are
upper levels' events. CPU 1 is idle and has the timer T1 enqueued.

           [GRP0:0]
         migrator = NONE
         active   = NONE
         nextevt  = T0i
          /         \
         0           1
      idle (T0i)  idle (T1)

1) CPU 0 goes idle without global event queued. Therefore KTIME_MAX is
pushed as its next expiry and its own event kept as "ignore". As a result
tmigr_update_events() ignores T1 and CPU 0 goes to idle with T1
unhandled.

This isn't proper to single level hierarchy though. A similar issue,
although slightly different, may arise on multi-level:

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = GRP0:0
                         active   = GRP0:0
                         nextevt  = T0:0i, T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = 0              migrator = NONE
           active   = 0              active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T0i            nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
      active         idle            idle       idle

0) CPU 0 is active thus its event is ignored (the letter 'i') and so are
upper levels' events. CPU 1 is idle and has the timer T1 enqueued.
CPU 2 also has a timer. The expiry order is T0 (ignored) < T1 < T2

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = GRP0:0
                         active   = GRP0:0

1) CPU 0 goes idle without global event queued. Therefore KTIME_MAX is
pushed as its next expiry and its own event kept as "ignore". As a result
tmigr_update_events() ignores T1. The change only propagated up to 1st
level so far.

                            [GRP1:0]
                         migrator = NONE

                         nextevt  = T0:1
                         /              \
              [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
           migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
           active   = NONE           active   = NONE
           nextevt  = T0i            nextevt  = T2
           /         \                /         \
          0 (T0i)     1 (T1)         2 (T2)      3
        idle         idle            idle         idle

2) The change now propagates up to the top. tmigr_update_events() finds
that the child event is ignored and thus removes it. The top level next
event is now T2 which is returned to CPU 0 as its next effective expiry
to take account for as the global idle migrator. However T1 has been
ignored along the way, leaving it unhandled.

Fix those issues with removing the buggy related early return. Ignored
child events must not prevent from evaluating the other events within
the same group.

86dd6c04ef sched/balancing: Rename scheduler_tick() => sched_tick()
- Standardize on prefixing scheduler-internal functions defined
  in <linux/sched.h> with sched_*() prefix. scheduler_tick() was
  the only function using the scheduler_ prefix. Harmonize it.

- The other reason to rename it is the NOHZ scheduler tick
  handling functions are already named sched_tick_*().
  Make the 'git grep sched_tick' more meaningful.

685d982112 Core x86 changes for v6.9:
- The biggest change is the rework of the percpu code,
   to support the 'Named Address Spaces' GCC feature,

    - This allows C code to access GS and FS segment relative
      memory via variables declared with such attributes,
      which allows the compiler to better optimize those accesses
      than the previous inline assembly code.
 
    - The series also includes a number of micro-optimizations
      for various percpu access methods, plus a number of
      cleanups of %gs accesses in assembly code.
 
    - These changes have been exposed to linux-next testing for
      the last ~5 months, with no known regressions in this area.
 
 - Fix/clean up __switch_to()'s broken but accidentally
   working handling of FPU switching - which also generates
   better code.
 
 - Propagate more RIP-relative addressing in assembly code,
   to generate slightly better code.
 
 - Rework the CPU mitigations Kconfig space to be less idiosyncratic,
   to make it easier for distros to follow & maintain these options.
 
 - Rework the x86 idle code to cure RCU violations and
   to clean up the logic.
 
 - Clean up the vDSO Makefile logic.
 
 - Misc cleanups and fixes.
 
 [ Please note that there's a higher number of merge commits in
   this branch (three) than is usual in x86 topic trees. This happened
   due to the long testing lifecycle of the percpu changes that
   involved 3 merge windows, which generated a longer history
   and various interactions with other core x86 changes that we
   felt better about to carry in a single branch. ]

d08c407f71 A large set of updates and features for timers and timekeeping:
- The hierarchical timer pull model
 
     When timer wheel timers are armed they are placed into the timer wheel
     of a CPU which is likely to be busy at the time of expiry. This is done
     to avoid wakeups on potentially idle CPUs.
 
     This is wrong in several aspects:
 
      1) The heuristics to select the target CPU are wrong by
         definition as the chance to get the prediction right is close
         to zero.
 
      2) Due to #1 it is possible that timers are accumulated on a
         single target CPU
 
      3) The required computation in the enqueue path is just overhead for
      	dubious value especially under the consideration that the vast
      	majority of timer wheel timers are either canceled or rearmed
      	before they expire.
 
     The timer pull model avoids the above by removing the target
     computation on enqueue and queueing timers always on the CPU on which
     they get armed.
 
     This is achieved by having separate wheels for CPU pinned timers and
     global timers which do not care about where they expire.
 
     As long as a CPU is busy it handles both the pinned and the global
     timers which are queued on the CPU local timer wheels.
 
     When a CPU goes idle it evaluates its own timer wheels:
 
       - If the first expiring timer is a pinned timer, then the global
       	timers can be ignored as the CPU will wake up before they expire.
 
       - If the first expiring timer is a global timer, then the expiry time
         is propagated into the timer pull hierarchy and the CPU makes sure
         to wake up for the first pinned timer.
 
     The timer pull hierarchy organizes CPUs in groups of eight at the
     lowest level and at the next levels groups of eight groups up to the
     point where no further aggregation of groups is required, i.e. the
     number of levels is log8(NR_CPUS). The magic number of eight has been
     established by experimention, but can be adjusted if needed.
 
     In each group one busy CPU acts as the migrator. It's only one CPU to
     avoid lock contention on remote timer wheels.
 
     The migrator CPU checks in its own timer wheel handling whether there
     are other CPUs in the group which have gone idle and have global timers
     to expire. If there are global timers to expire, the migrator locks the
     remote CPU timer wheel and handles the expiry.
 
     Depending on the group level in the hierarchy this handling can require
     to walk the hierarchy downwards to the CPU level.
 
     Special care is taken when the last CPU goes idle. At this point the
     CPU is the systemwide migrator at the top of the hierarchy and it
     therefore cannot delegate to the hierarchy. It needs to arm its own
     timer device to expire either at the first expiring timer in the
     hierarchy or at the first CPU local timer, which ever expires first.
 
     This completely removes the overhead from the enqueue path, which is
     e.g. for networking a true hotpath and trades it for a slightly more
     complex idle path.
 
     This has been in development for a couple of years and the final series
     has been extensively tested by various teams from silicon vendors and
     ran through extensive CI.
 
     There have been slight performance improvements observed on network
     centric workloads and an Intel team confirmed that this allows them to
     power down a die completely on a mult-die socket for the first time in
     a mostly idle scenario.
 
     There is only one outstanding ~1.5% regression on a specific overloaded
     netperf test which is currently investigated, but the rest is either
     positive or neutral performance wise and positive on the power
     management side.
 
   - Fixes for the timekeeping interpolation code for cross-timestamps:
 
     cross-timestamps are used for PTP to get snapshots from hardware timers
     and interpolated them back to clock MONOTONIC. The changes address a
     few corner cases in the interpolation code which got the math and logic
     wrong.
 
   - Simplifcation of the clocksource watchdog retry logic to automatically
     adjust to handle larger systems correctly instead of having more
     incomprehensible command line parameters.
 
   - Treewide consolidation of the VDSO data structures.
 
   - The usual small improvements and cleanups all over the place.

80a76c60e5 Updates for timekeeping and PTP core:
The cross-timestamp mechanism which allows to correlate hardware
   clocks uses clocksource pointers for describing the correlation.
 
   That's suboptimal as drivers need to obtain the pointer, which requires
   needless exports and exposing internals.
 
   This can be completely avoided by assigning clocksource IDs and using
   them for describing the correlated clock source.
 
   This update adds clocksource IDs to all clocksources in the tree which
   can be exposed to this mechanism and removes the pointer and now needless
   exports.
 
   This is separate from the timer core changes as it was provided to the
   PTP folks to build further changes on top.
 
   A related improvement for the core and the correlation handling has not
   made it this time, but is expected to get ready for the next round.

6b6ca09611 rtc: class: make rtc_class constant
Since commit 43a7206b09 ("driver core: class: make class_register() take
a const *"), the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, so move the rtc_class structure to be declared at build time
placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be dynamically
allocated at boot time.

8ca1836769 timer/migration: Fix quick check reporting late expiry
When a CPU is the last active in the hierarchy and it tries to enter
into idle, the quick check looking up the next event towards cpuidle
heuristics may report a too late expiry, such as in the following
scenario:

                        [GRP1:0]
                     migrator = NONE
                     active   = NONE
                     nextevt  = T0:0, T0:1
                     /              \
          [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
       migrator = NONE           migrator = NONE
       active   = NONE           active   = NONE
       nextevt  = T0, T1         nextevt  = T2
       /         \                /         \
      0           1              2           3
    idle       idle           idle         idle

0) The whole system is idle, and CPU 0 was the last migrator. CPU 0 has
a timer (T0), CPU 1 has a timer (T1) and CPU 2 has a timer (T2). The
expire order is T0 < T1 < T2.

                        [GRP1:0]
                     migrator = GRP0:0
                     active   = GRP0:0
                     nextevt  = T0:0(i), T0:1
                   /              \
          [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
       migrator = CPU0           migrator = NONE
       active   = CPU0           active   = NONE
       nextevt  = T0(i), T1      nextevt  = T2
       /         \                /         \
      0           1              2           3
    active       idle           idle         idle

1) CPU 0 becomes active. The (i) means a now ignored timer.

                        [GRP1:0]
                     migrator = GRP0:0
                     active   = GRP0:0
                     nextevt  = T0:1
                     /              \
          [GRP0:0]                  [GRP0:1]
       migrator = CPU0           migrator = NONE
       active   = CPU0           active   = NONE
       nextevt  = T1             nextevt  = T2
       /         \                /         \
      0           1              2           3
    active       idle           idle         idle

2) CPU 0 handles remote. No timer actually expired but ignored timers
   have been cleaned out and their sibling's timers haven't been
   propagated. As a result the top level's next event is T2 and not T1.

3) CPU 0 tries to enter idle without any global timer enqueued and calls
   tmigr_quick_check(). The expiry of T2 is returned instead of the
   expiry of T1.

When the quick check returns an expiry that is too late, the cpuidle
governor may pick up a C-state that is too deep. This may be result into
undesired CPU wake up latency if the next timer is actually close enough.

Fix this with assuming that expiries aren't sorted top-down while
performing the quick check. Pick up instead the earliest encountered one
while walking up the hierarchy.

2be2a197ff sched/idle: Conditionally handle tick broadcast in default_idle_call()
The x86 architecture has an idle routine for AMD CPUs which are affected
by erratum 400. On the affected CPUs the local APIC timer stops in the
C1E halt state.

It therefore requires tick broadcasting. The invocation of
tick_broadcast_enter()/exit() from this function violates the RCU
constraints because it can end up in lockdep or tracing, which
rightfully triggers a warning.

tick_broadcast_enter()/exit() must be invoked before ct_cpuidle_enter()
and after ct_cpuidle_exit() in default_idle_call().

Add a static branch conditional invocation of tick_broadcast_enter()/exit()
into this function to allow X86 to replace the AMD specific idle code. It's
guarded by a config switch which will be selected by x86. Otherwise it's
a NOOP.

a184d9835a tick/sched: Fix build failure for CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n
In configurations with CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT but no CONFIG_NO_HZ or
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS, tick_sched_timer_dying() is stubbed out,
but still defined as a global function as well:

kernel/time/tick-sched.c:1599:6: error: redefinition of 'tick_sched_timer_dying'
 1599 | void tick_sched_timer_dying(int cpu)
      |      ^
kernel/time/tick-sched.h:111:20: note: previous definition is here
  111 | static inline void tick_sched_timer_dying(int cpu) { }
      |                    ^

This configuration only appears with ARM CONFIG_ARCH_BCM_MOBILE,
which should not actually select CONFIG_TICK_ONESHOT.

Adjust the #ifdef for the stub to match the condition for building the
tick-sched.c file for consistency with the definition and to avoid
the build regression.
