The build robot reports:

   .tmp_kallsyms1.o: In function `kallsyms_relative_base':
&gt;&gt; (.rodata+0x8a18): undefined reference to `_text'

This is when using 'make alldefconfig'. Adding this _text symbol to mark
the start of the kernel as in other architecture fixes this.

This change allows us to pass DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC which allows us to
avoid invoking cache line invalidation if the driver will just handle it
via a sync_for_cpu or sync_for_device call.

   - Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the
     preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this
     optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
     Christian Borntraeger)

   - Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
     clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
     kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)

   - Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)

   - Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
     interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
     get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
     sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
     not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)

<title>openrisc: include l.swa in check for write data pagefault</title>

<id>cdb75442fedff8cc3ddedbe6e41d00b471634e17</id>
<content type='text'>
During page fault handling we check the last instruction to understand
if the fault was for a read or for a write.  By default we fall back to
read.  New instructions were added to the openrisc 1.1 spec for an
atomic load/store pair (l.lwa/l.swa).

This patch adds the opcode for l.swa (0x33) allowing it to be treated as
a write operation.

The openrisc.net domain expired and was taken over by squatters.
These updates point documentation to the new domain, mailing lists
and git repos.

Also, Jonas is not the main maintainer anylonger, he reviews changes
but does not maintain a repo or sent pull requests.  Updating this to
add Stafford and Stefan who are the active maintainers.

<title>openrisc: remove the redundant of_platform_populate</title>

<content type='text'>
The of_platform_populate call in the openrisc arch code is now redundant
as the DT core provides a default call. Openrisc has a NULL match table
which means only top level nodes with compatible strings will have
devices creates. The default version will also descend nodes in the
match table such as "simple-bus" which should be fine as openrisc
doesn't have any of these (though it is preferred that memory-mapped
peripherals be grouped under a bus node(s)).
