These are cleanups and smaller changes that either depend on earlier
feature branches or came in late during the development cycle.
We normally try to get all cleanups early, so these are the exceptions:
- A follow-up on the clocksource reworks, hopefully the last time
we need to merge clocksource subsystem changes through arm-soc.
A first set of patches was part of the original 3.10 arm-soc cleanup
series because of interdependencies with timer drivers now moved out
of arch/arm.
- Migrating the SPEAr13xx platform away from using auxdata for DMA
channel descriptions towards using information in device tree,
based on the earlier SPEAr multiplatform series
- A few follow-ups on the Atmel SAMA5 support and other changes
for Atmel at91 based on the larger at91 reworks.
- Moving the armada irqchip implementation to drivers/irqchip
- Several OMAP cleanups following up on the larger series already
merged in 3.10.

It would be good to get feedback on the location of the "mbus"

was moved to drivers/bus/. We expect other similar drivers to

These patches are all for Renesas shmobile, and depend on the earlier
pinctrl updates. Remarkably, this adds support for three new SoCs:
r8a73a4, r8a73a4 and r8a7778. The bulk of the code added for these is
for pinctrl (using the new subsystem) and for clocks (not yet using the
common clock subsystem). The latter will have to get converted in one
of the upcoming releases, but shmobile is not ready for that yet.
The series also contains Renesas shmobile board changes, adding one
board file for each of the three new SoCs. These boards are using a
mix of classic and device-tree based probing, as there is still a lot of
infrastructure in shmobile that has not been converted to DT yet. Once
those are resolved to the degree that no board specific setup code is
needed, they can get folded into the respective SoC setup files.

Merge rwsem optimizations from Michel Lespinasse:
"These patches extend Alex Shi's work (which added write lock stealing
on the rwsem slow path) in order to provide rwsem write lock stealing
on the fast path (that is, without taking the rwsem's wait_lock).
I have unfortunately been unable to push this through -next before due
to Ingo Molnar / David Howells / Peter Zijlstra being busy with other
things. However, this has gotten some attention from Rik van Riel and
Davidlohr Bueso who both commented that they felt this was ready for

* emailed patches from Michel Lespinasse <walken@google.com>:
rwsem: no need for explicit signed longs
x86 rwsem: avoid taking slow path when stealing write lock
rwsem: do not block readers at head of queue if other readers are active
rwsem: implement support for write lock stealing on the fastpath
rwsem: simplify __rwsem_do_wake
rwsem: skip initial trylock in rwsem_down_write_failed
rwsem: avoid taking wait_lock in rwsem_down_write_failed
rwsem: use cmpxchg for trying to steal write lock
rwsem: more agressive lock stealing in rwsem_down_write_failed
rwsem: simplify rwsem_down_write_failed
rwsem: simplify rwsem_down_read_failed
rwsem: move rwsem_down_failed_common code into rwsem_down_{read,write}_failed
rwsem: shorter spinlocked section in rwsem_down_failed_common()
rwsem: make the waiter type an enumeration rather than a bitmask
modify __down_write[_nested] and __down_write_trylock to grab the write
lock whenever the active count is 0, even if there are queued waiters
(they must be writers pending wakeup, since the active count is 0).
Note that this is an optimization only; architectures without this
optimization will still work fine:
- __down_write() would take the slow path which would take the wait_lock
and then try stealing the lock (as in the spinlocked rwsem implementation)
- __down_write_trylock() would fail, but callers must be ready to deal
with that - since there are some writers pending wakeup, they could
have raced with us and obtained the lock before we steal it.

If hard_irq_disable() is called while interrupts are already soft-disabled
(which is the most common case) all is already well.
However you can (and in some cases want) to call it while everything is
enabled (to make sure you don't get a lazy even, for example before entry
into KVM guests) and in this case we need to inform the irq tracer that
the irqs are going off.
We have to change the inline into a macro to avoid an include circular
dependency hell hole.

After the device names are created using PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO, the old
device names given in usb_bind_phy are no longer valid causing the musb
controller not to get the phy reference. Updated the usb_bind_phy with
the new device names to get MUSB functional in omap4 panda.

The updates are mostly about the x86 IOMMUs this time. Exceptions are
the groundwork for the PAMU IOMMU from Freescale (for a PPC platform)
and an extension to the IOMMU group interface. On the x86 side this
includes a workaround for VT-d to disable interrupt remapping on broken
chipsets. On the AMD-Vi side the most important new feature is a kernel
command-line interface to override broken information in IVRS ACPI
tables and get interrupt remapping working this way. Besides that there
are small fixes all over the place.

The PCI core supports an offset per aperture nowadays but our arch
code still has a single offset per host bridge representing the
difference betwen CPU memory addresses and PCI MMIO addresses.
This is a problem as new machines and hypervisor versions are
coming out where the 64-bit windows will have a different offset
(basically mapped 1:1) from the 32-bit windows.
This fixes it by using separate offsets. In the long run, we probably
want to get rid of that intermediary struct pci_controller and have
those directly stored into the pci_host_bridge as they are parsed
but this will be a more invasive change.

Some interrupt controllers refuse to map interrupts marked as
"protected" by firwmare. Since we try to map everyting in the
device-tree on some platforms, we end up with a lot of nasty
WARN's in the boot log for what is a normal situation on those
machines.
This defines a specific return code (-EPERM) from the host map()
callback which cause irqdomain to fail silently.
MPIC is updated to return this when hitting a protected source
printing only a single line message for diagnostic purposes.

Pull 'full dynticks' support from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree from Frederic Weisbecker adds a new, (exciting! :-) core
kernel feature to the timer and scheduler subsystems: 'full dynticks',
or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y.
This feature extends the nohz variable-size timer tick feature from
idle to busy CPUs (running at most one task) as well, potentially
reducing the number of timer interrupts significantly.
This feature got motivated by real-time folks and the -rt tree, but
the general utility and motivation of full-dynticks runs wider than
that:
- HPC workloads get faster: CPUs running a single task should be able
to utilize a maximum amount of CPU power. A periodic timer tick at
HZ=1000 can cause a constant overhead of up to 1.0%. This feature
removes that overhead - and speeds up the system by 0.5%-1.0% on
typical distro configs even on modern systems.
- Real-time workload latency reduction: CPUs running critical tasks
should experience as little jitter as possible. The last remaining
source of kernel-related jitter was the periodic timer tick.
- A single task executing on a CPU is a pretty common situation,
especially with an increasing number of cores/CPUs, so this feature
helps desktop and mobile workloads as well.
The cost of the feature is mainly related to increased timer
reprogramming overhead when a CPU switches its tick period, and thus
slightly longer to-idle and from-idle latency.
Configuration-wise a third mode of operation is added to the existing
two NOHZ kconfig modes:
- CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC: [formerly !CONFIG_NO_HZ], now explicitly named
as a config option. This is the traditional Linux periodic tick
design: there's a HZ tick going on all the time, regardless of
whether a CPU is idle or not.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE: [formerly CONFIG_NO_HZ=y], this turns off the
periodic tick when a CPU enters idle mode.
- CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL: this new mode, in addition to turning off the
tick when a CPU is idle, also slows the tick down to 1 Hz (one
timer interrupt per second) when only a single task is running on a
CPU.
The .config behavior is compatible: existing !CONFIG_NO_HZ and
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y settings get translated to the new values, without the
user having to configure anything. CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is turned off by
default.
This feature is based on a lot of infrastructure work that has been
steadily going upstream in the last 2-3 cycles: related RCU support
and non-periodic cputime support in particular is upstream already.
This tree adds the final pieces and activates the feature. The pull
request is marked RFC because:
- it's marked 64-bit only at the moment - the 32-bit support patch is
small but did not get ready in time.
- it has a number of fresh commits that came in after the merge
window. The overwhelming majority of commits are from before the
merge window, but still some aspects of the tree are fresh and so I
marked it RFC.
- it's a pretty wide-reaching feature with lots of effects - and
while the components have been in testing for some time, the full
combination is still not very widely used. That it's default-off
should reduce its regression abilities and obviously there are no
known regressions with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y enabled either.
- the feature is not completely idempotent: there is no 100%
equivalent replacement for a periodic scheduler/timer tick. In
particular there's ongoing work to map out and reduce its effects
on scheduler load-balancing and statistics. This should not impact
correctness though, there are no known regressions related to this
feature at this point.
- it's a pretty ambitious feature that with time will likely be
enabled by most Linux distros, and we'd like you to make input on
its design/implementation, if you dislike some aspect we missed.
Without flaming us to crisp! :-)
Future plans:
- there's ongoing work to reduce 1Hz to 0Hz, to essentially shut off
the periodic tick altogether when there's a single busy task on a
CPU. We'd first like 1 Hz to be exposed more widely before we go
for the 0 Hz target though.
- once we reach 0 Hz we can remove the periodic tick assumption from
nr_running>=2 as well, by essentially interrupting busy tasks only
as frequently as the sched_latency constraints require us to do -
once every 4-40 msecs, depending on nr_running.
I am personally leaning towards biting the bullet and doing this in
v3.10, like the -rt tree this effort has been going on for too long -
but the final word is up to you as usual.

Merge tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux
Pull mudule updates from Rusty Russell:
"We get rid of the general module prefix confusion with a binary config
option, fix a remove/insert race which Never Happens, and (my
favorite) handle the case when we have too many modules for a single
commandline. Seriously, the kernel is full, please go away!"
* tag 'modules-next-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux:
modpost: fix unwanted VMLINUX_SYMBOL_STR expansion
X.509: Support parse long form of length octets in Authority Key Identifier
module: don't unlink the module until we've removed all exposure.
kernel: kallsyms: memory override issue, need check destination buffer length
MODSIGN: do not send garbage to stderr when enabling modules signature
modpost: handle huge numbers of modules.
modpost: add -T option to read module names from file/stdin.
modpost: minor cleanup.
genksyms: pass symbol-prefix instead of arch
module: fix symbol versioning with symbol prefixes
CONFIG_SYMBOL_PREFIX: cleanup.
Pull single_open() leak fixes from Al Viro:
"A bunch of fixes for a moderately common class of bugs: file with
single_open() done by its ->open() and seq_release as its ->release().
That leaks; fortunately, it's not _too_ common (either people manage
to RTFM that says "When using single_open(), the programmer should use
single_release() instead of seq_release() in the file_operations
structure to avoid a memory leak", or they just copy a correct
instance), but grepping through the tree has caught quite a pile.
All of that is, AFAICS, -stable fodder, for as far as the patches
apply. I tried to carve it up into reasonably-sized pieces (more or
less "comes from the same tree")"

Pull sparc updates from David Miller:
1) Hibernation support, as well as removal of excess interrupt
twiddling in MMU context allocation on sparc64 from Kirill Tkhai.
2) Kill references to __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW.
3) Sparc32 LEON bug fixes from Daniel Hellstrom and Andreas Larsson.
4) Provide cmpxchg64(), from Geert Uytterhoeven.
5) Device refcount and registry bug fixes from Federico Vaga and Wei
Yongjun.
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc-next:
serial: sunsu: add missing platform_driver_unregister() when module exit
sparc32, leon: Do not overwrite previously set irq flow handlers
sparc/kernel/vio.c: add put_device() after device_find_child()
sparc64: Do not save/restore interrupts in get_new_mmu_context()
sparc: Consistently use 'wr' and 'rd' instructions for ASRs.
sparc64: Kill __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW
sparc64: Provide cmpxchg64()
sparc64: Do not change num_physpages during initmem freeing
sparc64: Hibernation support
sparc,leon: updated GRPCI2 config name
sparc,leon: support for GRPCI1 PCI host bridge controller
sparc32,leon: add support for PCI busn resource for GRPCI2
This is needed because when scan_of_devices finds the GAISLER_GPTIMER
core that corresponds to the SMP "ticker" timer, the previously set
proper irq flow handler gets overwritten with an incorrect one. This
leads to very flaky timer interrupt handling on some hardware. Proper
updates to handlers can still be done using leon_update_virq_handling.

The vio_remove() function uses device_find_child() but it does not drop
the reference of the retrieved child.
