<content type='text'>
The tricky part here is that task_pt_regs() on m68k works *only* for
process inside do_signal().  However, we need something much simpler -
pt_regs of a process inside do_signal() may be at different offsets
from the stack bottom, depending on the way we'd entered the kernel,
but for a task inside sys_execve() it *is* at constant offset.
Moreover, for a kernel thread about to become a userland process the
same location is also fine - setting sp to that will leave the kernel
stack pointer at the very bottom of the kernel stack when we finally
switch to userland.

<title>m68k: Add missing RCU idle APIs on idle loop</title>
<updated>2012-09-23T14:44:47+00:00</updated>

<name>Frederic Weisbecker</name>

<id>5b57ba37e82a15f345a6a2eb8c01a2b2d94c5eeb</id>
<content type='text'>
In the old times, the whole idle task was considered
as an RCU quiescent state. But as RCU became more and
more successful overtime, some RCU read side critical
section have been added even in the code of some
architectures idle tasks, for tracing for example.

So nowadays, rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit() must
be called by the architecture to tell RCU about the part
in the idle loop that doesn't make use of rcu read side
critical sections, typically the part that puts the CPU
in low power mode.

This is necessary for RCU to find the quiescent states in
idle in order to complete grace periods.

Add this missing pair of calls in the m68k's idle loop.

Pull m68knommu arch updates from Greg Ungerer:
 "Includes a cleanup of the non-MMU linker script (it now almost
  exclusively uses the well defined linker script support macros and
  definitions).  Some more merging of MMU and non-MMU common files
  (specifically the arch process.c, ptrace and time.c).  And a big
  cleanup of the massively duplicated ColdFire device definition code.

  Overall we remove about 2000 lines of code, and end up with a single
  set of platform device definitions for the serial ports, ethernet
  ports and QSPI ports common in most ColdFire SoCs.

  I expect you will get a merge conflict on arch/m68k/kernel/process.c,
  in cpu_idle().  It should be relatively strait forward to fixup."

And cpu_idle() conflict resolution was indeed trivial (merging the
nommu/mmu versions of process.c trivially conflicting with the
conversion to use the schedule_preempt_disabled() helper function)
