The most important ones are a duplicated definition of a Kconfig
variable and the handling of external interrupts for non-DT case.
The new at91sam9g10 was suffering a recognition issue due to an ID
mis-interpreted: this was leading to a kernel panic.

The current DT nodes for mx23/mx28 miss the `clocks-names` item for gpmi-nand.
So the gpmi-nand driver could not find the proper clock.

Now the Nomadik I2C driver has been converted to an AMBA one, we
are required to provide the Primecell IDs via platform code. When
booting with DT enabled these have to be specified in the device
nodes. We do that here.

The i2c core driver will turn the platform device ID to busnum
When using platfrom device ID as -1, it means dynamically assigned
the busnum. When writing code, we need to make sure the busnum,
and call i2c_register_board_info(int busnum, ...) to register device
if using -1, we do not know the value of busnum

The reason for this is that the Debug Unit Chip ID Register has changed between
Engineering Sample and definitive revision of the SoC. Changing the check of
cidr to socid will address the problem. We do not integrate this check to the

disregarded.

(MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA, update_vsyscall() prototype)
- Unnecessary register setting in start_thread() (thanks to Al Viro)
- ptrace fixes"
* tag 'arm64-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmarinas/linux-aarch64:
arm64: fix alignment padding in assembly code
arm64: ptrace: use HW_BREAKPOINT_EMPTY type for disabled breakpoints
arm64: ptrace: make structure padding explicit for debug registers
arm64: No need to set the x0-x2 registers in start_thread()
arm64: Ignore memory blocks below PHYS_OFFSET
arm64: Fix the update_vsyscall() prototype
arm64: Select MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
arm64: Remove duplicate inclusion of mmu_context.h in smp.c
An interesting effect of using the generic version of linkage.h
is that the padding is defined in terms of x86 NOPs, which can have
even more interesting effects when the assembly code looks like this:
ENTRY(func1)
mov x0, xzr
ENDPROC(func1)
// fall through
ENTRY(func2)
mov x0, #1
ret
ENDPROC(func2)
Admittedly, the code is not very nice. But having code from another
architecture doesn't look completely sane either.
The fix is to add arm64's version of linkage.h, which causes the insertion
of proper AArch64 NOPs.

perf: Require exclude_guest to use PEBS - kernel side enforcement
perf tool: Precise mode requires exclude_guest
. The python binding needs to link with libtraceevent and to initialize
the 'page_size' variable so that mmaping works again.
. The callchain folding character that appears on the TUI just before
the overhead had disappeared due to recent changes, add it back.
. Intel PEBS in VT-x context uses the DS address as a guest linear address,
even though its programmed by the host as a host linear address. This either
results in guest memory corruption and or the hardware faulting and 'crashing'
the virtual machine. Therefore we have to disable PEBS on VT-x enter and
re-enable on VT-x exit, enforcing a strict exclude_guest.
Kernel side enforcement fix by Peter Zijlstra, tooling side fix by David Ahern.
. Fix build on sparc due to UAPI, fix from David Miller.
. Fixes for the srclike sort key for unresolved symbols and when processing
samples in JITted code, where we don't have an ELF file, just an special
symbol table, fixes from Namhyung Kim.
. Fix some leaks in libtraceevent, from Steven Rostedt.

UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate arch/hexagon/include/asm
This is a couple of high code motion patches (all within arch/parisc) I'd like
to apply at -rc1 to avoid conflicts with anything else. One moves us on to
the generated instead of included asm file model and the other is a pull
request from David Howells for UAPI disintegration.

From Borislav Petkov <bp@amd64.org>:
Below is a RAS fix which reverts the addition of a sysfs attribute
which we agreed is not needed, post-factum. And this should go in now
because that sysfs attribute is going to end up in 3.7 otherwise and
thus exposed to userspace; removing it then would be a lot harder.
This is done as a merge rather than a simple patch/cherry-pick since
the baseline for this patch was not in the previous x86/urgent.

450cc20103 ("x86/mce: Provide boot argument to honour bios-set CMCI
threshold") added the bios_cmci_threshold sysfs attribute which was
supposed to communicate to userspace tools that BIOS CMCI threshold has
been honoured.
However, this info is not of any importance to userspace - it should
rather get the actual error count it has been thresholded already from
MCi_STATUS[38:52].
So drop this before it becomes a used interface (good thing we caught
this early in 3.7-rc1, right after the merge window closed).

If a debugger tries to zero a hardware debug control register, the
kernel will try to infer both the type and length of the breakpoint
in order to sanity-check against the requested regset type. This will
fail because the encoding will appear as a zero-length breakpoint.
This patch changes the control register setting so that disabled
breakpoints are treated as HW_BREAKPOINT_EMPTY and no further
sanity-checking is required.

For historical reasons, ARM used to set r0-r2 in start_thread() to the
first values on the user stack when starting a new user application. The
same logic has been inherited in AArch64. The x0 register is overridden
by the sys_execve() return value so it's always zero on success. The x1
and x2 registers are ignored by AArch64 and EABI AArch32 applications,
so we can safely remove the register setting for both native and compat
user space.
This also fixes a potential fault with the kernel accessing user space
stack directly.

Earlier without cpuidle framework on pseries, the native arch
idle routine comprised of both snooze and nap
states. smt_snooze_delay variable was used to delay
the idle process entry to deeper idle state like nap.
With the coming of cpuidle, this arch specific idle was replaced
by two different idle routines, one for supporting snooze and other
for nap. This enabled addition of more
low level idle states on pseries in the future.
On adopting the generic cpuidle framework for POWER systems,
the decision of which idle state to choose from, given a predicted
idle time is taken by the menu governor based on
target_residency and exit_latency of the idle states.
target_residency is the minimum time to be resident in that idle state.
Exit_latency is time taken to exit out of idle state.
Deeper the idle state, both the target residency and exit latency
would be higher.
In the current design, smt_snooze_delay is used as target_residency
for the snooze state which is incorrect, as it is not the
minimum but the maximum duration to be in snooze state.
This would result in the governor in taking bad decision,
as presently target_residency of nap < target_residency of snooze
inspite of nap being deeper idle state.
This patch aims to fix this problem by replacing the smt_snooze_delay loop
in snooze state, with the need_resched() as the governor is aware of
entry and exit of various idle transitions based on which
next idle time prediction.
The governor is intelligent enough to determine the idle state the needs to
be transitioned to and maintains a whole of heuristics including
io load, previous idle states predictions etc for the same, based on
which idle state entry decision is taken.
With this fix, of setting target_residency of snooze to 0
nap to smt_snooze_delay
if the predicted idle time is less
than smt_snooze_delay (target_residency of nap)
value governor would pick snooze state, else nap. This adhers to the
previous native idle design.

smt_snooze_delay was designed to delay idle loop's nap entry
in the native idle code before it got ported over to use as part of
the cpuidle framework.
A -ve value assigned to smt_snooze_delay should result in
busy looping, in other words disabling the entry to nap state.
- https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2010-May/082450.html
This particular functionality can be achieved currently by
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/state1/disable
but it is broken when one assigns -ve value to the smt_snooze_delay
variable either via sysfs entry or ppc64_cpu util.
This patch aims to fix this, by disabling nap state when smt_snooze_delay
variable is set to -ve value.
