<title>MIPS: clockevent drivers: Set -&gt;min_delta_ticks and -&gt;max_delta_ticks</title>

<id>e4db9253d6b4c1d927254f1c4bef875573229502</id>
<content type='text'>
In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
all clockevent device drivers must set -&gt;min_delta_ticks and
-&gt;max_delta_ticks rather than -&gt;min_delta_ns and -&gt;max_delta_ns: a
clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.

Make the MIPS arch's clockevent drivers initialize these fields properly.

This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) -&gt;min_delta_ns
and -&gt;max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
purge the initialization of -&gt;min_delta_ns and -&gt;max_delta_ns from these
drivers.

Migrate cevt-rsb1250 driver to the new 'set-state' interface provided by
clockevents core, the earlier 'set-mode' interface is marked obsolete
now.

This also enables us to implement callbacks for new states of clockevent
devices, for example: ONESHOT_STOPPED.

<title>MIPS: Delete __cpuinit/__CPUINIT usage from MIPS code</title>

<id>078a55fc824c1633b3a507e4ad48b4637c1dfc18</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 3747069b25e419f6b51395f48127e9812abc3596 upstream.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
and are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
the arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
related content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get
rid of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

Here, we remove all the MIPS __cpuinit from C code and __CPUINIT
from asm files.  MIPS is interesting in this respect, because there
are also uasm users hiding behind their own renamed versions of the
__cpuinit macros.

Since commit [e58aa3d2: genirq: Run irq handlers with interrupts disabled],
We run all interrupt handlers with interrupts disabled and we even check
and yell when an interrupt handler returns with interrupts enabled (see
commit [b738a50a: genirq: Warn when handler enables interrupts]).

So now this flag is a NOOP and can be removed.

<title>MIPS: Add missing #inclusions of &lt;linux/irq.h&gt;</title>

<content type='text'>
Add missing #inclusions of &lt;linux/irq.h&gt; to a whole bunch of files that should
really include it.  Note that this can replace #inclusions of &lt;asm/irq.h&gt;.

This is required for the patch to sort out irqflags handling function naming to
compile on MIPS.

The problem is that these files require access to things like setup_irq() -
which isn't available by #including &lt;linux/interrupt.h&gt;

Some of the were relying into smp.h being dragged in by another header
which of course is fragile.  &lt;asm/cpu-info.h&gt; uses smp_processor_id()
only in macros and including smp.h there leads to an include loop, so
don't change cpu-info.h.

Impact: change calling convention of existing clock_event APIs

struct clock_event_timer's cpumask field gets changed to take pointer,
as does the -&gt;broadcast function.

Another single-patch change.  For safety, we BUG_ON() in
clockevents_register_device() if it's not set.
