Giancarlo Ferrari reports the following oops while trying to use kexec:

 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 80112f38
 pgd = fd7ef03e
 [80112f38] *pgd=0001141e(bad)
 Internal error: Oops: 80d [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM
 ...

This is caused by machine_kexec() trying to set the kernel text to be
read/write, so it can poke values into the relocation code before
copying it - and an interrupt occuring which changes the page tables.
The subsequent writes then hit read-only sections that trigger a
data abort resulting in the above oops.

Fix this by copying the relocation code, and then writing the variables
into the destination, thereby avoiding the need to make the kernel text
read/write.

The tegra_uart_config of the DEBUG_LL code is now placed right at the
start of the .text section after commit which enabled debug output in the
decompressor. Tegra devices are not booting anymore if DEBUG_LL is enabled
since tegra_uart_config data is executes as a code. Fix the misplaced
tegra_uart_config storage by embedding it into the code.

<title>local64.h: make &lt;asm/local64.h&gt; mandatory</title>

Make &lt;asm-generic/local64.h&gt; mandatory in include/asm-generic/Kbuild and
remove all arch/*/include/asm/local64.h arch-specific files since they
only #include &lt;asm-generic/local64.h&gt;.

This fixes build errors on arch/c6x/ and arch/nios2/ for
block/blk-iocost.c.

Build-tested on 21 of 25 arch-es.  (tools problems on the others)

Yes, we could even rename &lt;asm-generic/local64.h&gt; to
&lt;linux/local64.h&gt; and change all #includes to use
&lt;linux/local64.h&gt; instead.

Macros used as functions can be problematic from the compiler perspective.
There was a build failure report caused primarily because of non reference
of an argument variable. Hence convert PUD level pgtable helper macros into
functions in order to avoid such problems in the future. In the process, it

fixes the argument variables sequence in set_pud() which probably remained
hidden for being a macro.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "We have a handful of new kernel features for 5.11:

   - Support for the contiguous memory allocator.

   - Support for IRQ Time Accounting

   - Support for stack tracing

   - Support for strict /dev/mem

   - Support for kernel section protection

  I'm being a bit conservative on the cutoff for this round due to the
  timing, so this is all the new development I'm going to take for this
  cycle (even if some of it probably normally would have been OK). There
  are, however, some fixes on the list that I will likely be sending
  along either later this week or early next week.

  There is one issue in here: one of my test configurations
  (PREEMPT{,_DEBUG}=y) fails to boot on QEMU 5.0.0 (from April) as of
  the .text.init alignment patch.

  With any luck we'll sort out the issue, but given how many bugs get
  fixed all over the place and how unrelated those features seem my
  guess is that we're just running into something that's been lurking
  for a while and has already been fixed in the newer QEMU (though I
  wouldn't be surprised if it's one of these implicit assumptions we
  have in the boot flow). If it was hardware I'd be strongly inclined to
  look more closely, but given that users can upgrade their simulators
  I'm less worried about it"
