The Analog Devices Blackfin port was added in 2007 and was rather
active for a while, but all work on it has come to a standstill
over time, as Analog have changed their product line-up.

Aaron Wu confirmed that the architecture port is no longer relevant,
and multiple people suggested removing blackfin independently because
of some of its oddities like a non-working SMP port, and the amount of
duplication between the chip variants, which cause extra work when
doing cross-architecture changes.

except, again, POLLFREE and POLL_BUSY_LOOP.

With this, we finally get to the promised end result:

 - POLL{IN,OUT,...} are plain integers and *not* in __poll_t, so any
   stray instances of -&gt;poll() still using those will be caught by
   sparse.

 - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t

 - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are
   visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for
   mangle/demangle)

 - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2)
   working correctly).

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd:
 "The core framework has a handful of patches this time around, mostly
  due to the clk rate protection support added by Jerome Brunet.

  This feature will allow consumers to lock in a certain rate on the
  output of a clk so that things like audio playback don't hear pops
  when the clk frequency changes due to shared parent clks changing
  rates. Currently the clk API doesn't guarantee the rate of a clk stays
  at the rate you request after clk_set_rate() is called, so this new
  API will allow drivers to express that requirement.

  Beyond this, the core got some debugfs pretty printing patches and a
  couple minor non-critical fixes.

  Looking outside of the core framework diff we have some new driver
  additions and the removal of a legacy TI clk driver. Both of these hit
  high in the dirstat. Also, the removal of the asm-generic/clkdev.h
  file causes small one-liners in all the architecture Kbuild files.

  Overall, the driver diff seems to be the normal stuff that comes all
  the time to fix little problems here and there and to support new
  hardware.

  Summary:

  Core:
   - Clk rate protection
   - Symbolic clk flags in debugfs output
   - Clk registration enabled clks while doing bookkeeping updates

  New Drivers:
   - Spreadtrum SC9860
   - HiSilicon hi3660 stub
   - Qualcomm A53 PLL, SPMI clkdiv, and MSM8916 APCS
   - Amlogic Meson-AXG
   - ASPEED BMC

  Removed Drivers:
   - TI OMAP 3xxx legacy clk (non-DT) support
   - asm*/clkdev.h got removed (not really a driver)

  Updates:
   - Renesas FDP1-0 module clock on R-Car M3-W
   - Renesas LVDS module clock on R-Car V3M
   - Misc fixes to pr_err() prints
   - Qualcomm MSM8916 audio fixes
   - Qualcomm IPQ8074 rounded out support for more peripherals
   - Qualcomm Alpha PLL variants
   - Divider code was using container_of() on bad pointers
   - Allwinner DE2 clks on H3
   - Amlogic minor data fixes and dropping of CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED
   - Mediatek clk driver compile test support
   - AT91 PMC clk suspend/resume restoration support
   - PLL issues fixed on si5351
   - Broadcom IProc PLL calculation updates
   - DVFS support for Armada mvebu CPU clks
   - Allwinner fixed post-divider support
   - TI clkctrl fixes and support for newer SoCs"

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
 "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
  the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
  'make -&gt;poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
  variables used to hold the future return value'.

  Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
  misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
  low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. -&gt;poll() instance
  deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
  in this series - it's large enough as it is.

  Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
  eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
  equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
  arch-independent, but POLL### are not.

  The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
  the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
  in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
  is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
  work on all architectures.

  As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
  it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
  architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
  at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
  architectures"

Pull siginfo cleanups from Eric Biederman:
 "Long ago when 2.4 was just a testing release copy_siginfo_to_user was
  made to copy individual fields to userspace, possibly for efficiency
  and to ensure initialized values were not copied to userspace.

  Unfortunately the design was complex, it's assumptions unstated, and
  humans are fallible and so while it worked much of the time that
  design failed to ensure unitialized memory is not copied to userspace.

  This set of changes is part of a new design to clean up siginfo and
  simplify things, and hopefully make the siginfo handling robust enough
  that a simple inspection of the code can be made to ensure we don't
  copy any unitializied fields to userspace.

  The design is to unify struct siginfo and struct compat_siginfo into a
  single definition that is shared between all architectures so that
  anyone adding to the set of information shared with struct siginfo can
  see the whole picture. Hopefully ensuring all future si_code
  assignments are arch independent.

  The design is to unify copy_siginfo_to_user32 and
  copy_siginfo_from_user32 so that those function are complete and cope
  with all of the different cases documented in signinfo_layout. I don't
  think there was a single implementation of either of those functions
  that was complete and correct before my changes unified them.

  The design is to introduce a series of helpers including
  force_siginfo_fault that take the values that are needed in struct
  siginfo and build the siginfo structure for their callers. Ensuring
  struct siginfo is built correctly.

  The remaining work for 4.17 (unless someone thinks it is post -rc1
  material) is to push usage of those helpers down into the
  architectures so that architecture specific code will not need to deal
  with the fiddly work of intializing struct siginfo, and then when
  struct siginfo is guaranteed to be fully initialized change copy
  siginfo_to_user into a simple wrapper around copy_to_user.

  Further there is work in progress on the issues that have been
  documented requires arch specific knowledge to sort out.

  The changes below fix or at least document all of the issues that have
  been found with siginfo generation. Then proceed to unify struct
  siginfo the 32 bit helpers that copy siginfo to and from userspace,
  and generally clean up anything that is not arch specific with regards
  to siginfo generation.

  It is a lot but with the unification you can of siginfo you can
  already see the code reduction in the kernel"

Nothing tests this define so just remove it.

I suspect the intention was to make the uid field in siginfo 16bit
however I can't find any code that ever tested this defined, and
even if it did it the layout has been this way for 8 years so
changing it now would break the ABI with userspace.

Having si_codes in many different files simply encourages duplicate definitions
that can cause problems later.  To avoid that merge the blackfin specific si_codes
into uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h

Update copy_siginfo_to_user to copy with the absence of BUS_MCEERR_AR that blackfin
defines to be something else.

<title>Construct init thread stack in the linker script rather than by union</title>

Construct the init thread stack in the linker script rather than doing it
by means of a union so that ia64's init_task.c can be got rid of.

The following symbols are then made available from INIT_TASK_DATA() linker
script macro:

	init_thread_union
	init_stack

INIT_TASK_DATA() also expands the region to THREAD_SIZE to accommodate the
size of the init stack.  init_thread_union is given its own section so that
it can be placed into the stack space in the right order.  I'm assuming
that the ia64 ordering is correct and that the task_struct is first and the
thread_info second.

Now that every architecture is using the generic clkdev.h file
and we no longer include asm/clkdev.h anywhere in the tree, we
can remove it.

The generic header file is equivalent to the blackfin version, so
just use the generic one.
