<content type='text'>
This patch reverts commit 7082a29c22ac ("ARC: use ACCESS_ONCE in cmpxchg
loop").

It is not necessary to use READ_ONCE() because cmpxchg contains barrier. We
can get it from commit d57f727264f1 ("ARC: add compiler barrier to LLSC
based cmpxchg").

disasm_instr() already call memset(0) on its 2nd argument, so there is no
need to clear it explicitly before calling this function.

Remove the redundant memset().

Function syscall_trace_exit expects pointer to pt_regs. However
r0 is also used to keep syscall return value. Restore pointer

Pull ptrace cleanups from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes removes tracehook.h, moves modification of all of
  the ptrace fields inside of siglock to remove races, adds a missing
  permission check to ptrace.c

  The removal of tracehook.h is quite significant as it has been a major
  source of confusion in recent years. Much of that confusion was around
  task_work and TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL (which I have now decoupled making the
  semantics clearer).

  For people who don't know tracehook.h is a vestiage of an attempt to
  implement uprobes like functionality that was never fully merged, and
  was later superseeded by uprobes when uprobes was merged. For many
  years now we have been removing what tracehook functionaly a little
  bit at a time. To the point where anything left in tracehook.h was
  some weird strange thing that was difficult to understand"

Move set_notify_resume and tracehook_notify_resume into resume_user_mode.h.
While doing that rename tracehook_notify_resume to resume_user_mode_work.

Update all of the places that included tracehook.h for these functions to
include resume_user_mode.h instead.

Update all of the callers of tracehook_notify_resume to call
resume_user_mode_work.

On some architectures, access_ok() does not do any argument type
checking, so replacing the definition with a generic one causes
a few warnings for harmless issues that were never caught before.

Fix the ones that I found either through my own test builds or
that were reported by the 0-day bot.

<title>arc: perf: Move static structs to where they're really used</title>

<content type='text'>
It is all well described by Stephen Rothwell who initially spotted that:
-----------------------------&gt;8----------------------------
After merging the origin tree, today's linux-next build (arc
haps_hs_smp_defconfig+kselftest) produced these warnings:

arch/arc/include/asm/perf_event.h:126:27: warning: 'arc_pmu_cache_map' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
arch/arc/include/asm/perf_event.h:91:27: warning: 'arc_pmu_ev_hw_map' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]

Introduced by commit 0dd450fe13da ("ARC: Add perf support for ARC700 cores")

The 2 static arrays should be moved into arch/arc/kernel/perf_event.c
(the only place that uses them). We get the warning because perf_event.h
is also included by arch/arc/kernel/unaligned.c.
-----------------------------&gt;8----------------------------

Could be easily reproduced by running make with "W=1" on any up-to-date
sources, when extra warnings get enabled (in particular
"-Wunused-const-variable"), otherwise disabled by default in the top-level
Makefile as "These warnings generated too much noise in a regular build".
