You cannot run this code because arch/csky/Makefile does not define the
vdso_install target.

It appears that this code was blindly copied from another architecture.

Remove the dead code.

<title>vgacon, arch/*: remove unused screen_info definitions</title>

<id>fd90410e9d74f3ff2361c7bd44c67f712fc5f588</id>
<content type='text'>
A number of architectures either kept the screen_info definition for
historical purposes as it used to be required by the generic VT code, or
they copied it from another architecture in order to build the VGA console
driver in an allmodconfig build. The mips definition is used by some
platforms, but the initialization on jazz is not needed.

Now that vgacon no longer builds on these architectures, remove the
stale definitions and initializations.

<title>c-sky: Remove now superfluous sentinel element from ctl_talbe array</title>

<id>8f06eef7b80cebd410a5e13e740f7e00b3c22e3d</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit comes at the tail end of a greater effort to remove the
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which
will reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time
memory bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :
https://lore.kernel.org/all/ZO5Yx5JFogGi%2FcBo@bombadil.infradead.org/)

Remove sentinel from alignment_tbl ctl_table array. This removal is safe
because register_sysctl_init implicitly uses ARRAY_SIZE() in addition to
checking for the sentinel.

Pull x86 shadow stack support from Dave Hansen:
 "This is the long awaited x86 shadow stack support, part of Intel's
  Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET).

  CET consists of two related security features: shadow stacks and
  indirect branch tracking. This series implements just the shadow stack
  part of this feature, and just for userspace.

  The main use case for shadow stack is providing protection against
  return oriented programming attacks. It works by maintaining a
  secondary (shadow) stack using a special memory type that has
  protections against modification. When executing a CALL instruction,
  the processor pushes the return address to both the normal stack and
  to the special permission shadow stack. Upon RET, the processor pops
  the shadow stack copy and compares it to the normal stack copy.

  For more information, refer to the links below for the earlier
  versions of this patch set"

Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Some swap cleanups from Ma Wupeng ("fix WARN_ON in
   add_to_avail_list")

 - Peter Xu has a series (mm/gup: Unify hugetlb, speed up thp") which
   reduces the special-case code for handling hugetlb pages in GUP. It
   also speeds up GUP handling of transparent hugepages.

 - Peng Zhang provides some maple tree speedups ("Optimize the fast path
   of mas_store()").

 - Sergey Senozhatsky has improved te performance of zsmalloc during
   compaction (zsmalloc: small compaction improvements").

 - Domenico Cerasuolo has developed additional selftest code for zswap
   ("selftests: cgroup: add zswap test program").

 - xu xin has doe some work on KSM's handling of zero pages. These
   changes are mainly to enable the user to better understand the
   effectiveness of KSM's treatment of zero pages ("ksm: support
   tracking KSM-placed zero-pages").

 - Jeff Xu has fixes the behaviour of memfd's
   MEMFD_NOEXEC_SCOPE_NOEXEC_ENFORCED sysctl ("mm/memfd: fix sysctl
   MEMFD_NOEXEC_SCOPE_NOEXEC_ENFORCED").

   Stop read optimisation when folio removed from pagecache").

 - Axel Rasmussen has given userfaultfd the ability to simulate memory
   poisoning ("add UFFDIO_POISON to simulate memory poisoning with
   UFFD").

 - Miaohe Lin has contributed some routine maintenance work on the
   memory-failure code ("mm: memory-failure: remove unneeded PageHuge()
   check").

 - Peng Zhang has contributed some maintenance work on the maple tree
   code ("Improve the validation for maple tree and some cleanup").

 - Hugh Dickins has optimized the collapsing of shmem or file pages into
   THPs ("mm: free retracted page table by RCU").

 - Jiaqi Yan has a patch series which permits us to use the healthy
   subpages within a hardware poisoned huge page for general purposes
   ("Improve hugetlbfs read on HWPOISON hugepages").

 - Kemeng Shi has done some maintenance work on the pagetable-check code
   ("Remove unused parameters in page_table_check").

Move the default (no-op) implementation of flush_icache_pages() to
&lt;linux/cacheflush.h&gt; from &lt;asm-generic/cacheflush.h&gt;.  Remove the
flush_icache_page() wrapper from each architecture into
&lt;linux/cacheflush.h&gt;.
