We're going to be adding a few new barrier primitives, and in order to
avoid endless duplication make more agressive use of
asm-generic/barrier.h.
Change the asm-generic/barrier.h such that it allows partial barrier
definitions and fills out the rest with defaults.
There are a few architectures (m32r, m68k) that could probably
do away with their barrier.h file entirely but are kept for now due to
their unconventional nop() implementation.

HAVE_ARCH_DEVTREE_FIXUPS appears to always be needed except for sparc,
but it is only used for /proc/device-teee and sparc does not enable
/proc/device-tree. So this option is redundant. Remove the option and

on arches such as arm64 which failed to define this option.

Pull voluntary preemption fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains a speedup which is achieved through better
might_sleep()/might_fault() preemption point annotations for uaccess
functions, by Michael S Tsirkin:
1. The only reason uaccess routines might sleep is if they fault.
Make this explicit for all architectures.
2. A voluntary preemption point in uaccess functions means compiler
can't inline them efficiently, this breaks assumptions that they
are very fast and small that e.g. net code seems to make. Remove
this preemption point so behaviour matches with what callers
assume.
3. Accesses (e.g through socket ops) to kernel memory with KERNEL_DS
like net/sunrpc does will never sleep. Remove an unconditinal
might_sleep() in the might_fault() inline in kernel.h (used when
PROVE_LOCKING is not set).
4. Accesses with pagefault_disable() return EFAULT but won't cause
caller to sleep. Check for that and thus avoid might_sleep() when
PROVE_LOCKING is set.
These changes offer a nice speedup for CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y
kernels, here's a network bandwidth measurement between a virtual
machine and the host:
before:
incoming: 7122.77 Mb/s
outgoing: 8480.37 Mb/s
after:
incoming: 8619.24 Mb/s [ +21.0% ]

futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic exchanged if the values were
unequal rather than equal. This caused incorrect behavior
of robust futexes.

We are going to move to asm-generic/io.h but
let's fix compilation warnings first for 3.10.
Warning message:
arch/microblaze/include/asm/io.h:126:26: warning: cast to
pointer from integer of different size [-Wint-to-pointer-cast]

Fix access_ok macro no to permit
case where user will try to access
the last address space which is equal
to segment address.
Example:
segment addr = 0xbfff ffff
address = 0xbfff fff0
size = 0x10
Current wrong implementation
0xbfff ffff >= (0xbfff fff0 | 0x10 | (0xbfff fff0 + 0x10))
0xbfff ffff >= (0xbfff fff0 | 0xc000 0000)
0xbfff ffff >= 0xf000 0000
return 0 which is access failed even the combination is valid.
because get_fs().seq returns the last valid address.
This patch fix this problem.
Size equals to zero is valid access.

Pull compat cleanup from Al Viro:
"Mostly about syscall wrappers this time; there will be another pile
with patches in the same general area from various people, but I'd
rather push those after both that and vfs.git pile are in."
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/signal:
syscalls.h: slightly reduce the jungles of macros
get rid of union semop in sys_semctl(2) arguments
make do_mremap() static
sparc: no need to sign-extend in sync_file_range() wrapper
ppc compat wrappers for add_key(2) and request_key(2) are pointless
x86: trim sys_ia32.h
x86: sys32_kill and sys32_mprotect are pointless
get rid of compat_sys_semctl() and friends in case of ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC
merge compat sys_ipc instances
consolidate compat lookup_dcookie()
convert vmsplice to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
switch getrusage() to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
switch epoll_pwait to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
convert sendfile{,64} to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
switch signalfd{,4}() to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
make SYSCALL_DEFINE<n>-generated wrappers do asmlinkage_protect
make HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS unconditional
consolidate cond_syscall and SYSCALL_ALIAS declarations
teach SYSCALL_DEFINE<n> how to deal with long long/unsigned long long
get rid of duplicate logics in __SC_....[1-6] definitions
Pull SMP/hotplug changes from Ingo Molnar:
"This is a pretty large, multi-arch series unifying and generalizing
the various disjunct pieces of idle routines that architectures have
historically copied from each other and have grown in random, wildly
inconsistent and sometimes buggy directions:
101 files changed, 455 insertions(+), 1328 deletions(-)
this went through a number of review and test iterations before it was
committed, it was tested on various architectures, was exposed to
linux-next for quite some time - nevertheless it might cause problems
on architectures that don't read the mailing lists and don't regularly
test linux-next.
This cat herding excercise was motivated by the -rt kernel, and was
brought to you by Thomas "the Whip" Gleixner."

The microblaze idle loop provides a polling and a non polling version,
which are suprisingly both polling, just with slightly different
instrumentation. Remove them and use the generic poller.
