The only remaining consumer is new_inode, where it showed up in 2001 as
commit c37fa164f793 ("v2.4.9.9 -&gt; v2.4.9.10") in a historical repo [1]
with a changelog which does not mention it.

Since then the line got only touched up to keep compiling.

While it may have been of benefit back in the day, it is guaranteed to
at best not get in the way in the multicore setting -- as the code
performs *a lot* of work between the prefetch and actual lock acquire,
any contention means the cacheline is already invalid by the time the
routine calls spin_lock().  It adds spurious traffic, for short.

On top of it prefetch is notoriously tricky to use for single-threaded
purposes, making it questionable from the get go.

As such, remove it.

I admit upfront I did not see value in benchmarking this change, but I
can do it if that is deemed appropriate.

Removal from new_inode and of the entire thing are in the same patch as
requested by Linus, so whatever weird looks can be directed at that guy.

<title>sparc: mark __arch_xchg() as __always_inline</title>

<id>ec7633de404e7ce704d8f79081b97bca5b616c23</id>
<content type='text'>
An otherwise correct change to the atomic operations uncovered an
existing bug in the sparc __arch_xchg() function, which is calls
__xchg_called_with_bad_pointer() when its arguments are unknown at
compile time:

ERROR: modpost: "__xchg_called_with_bad_pointer" [lib/atomic64_test.ko] undefined!

This now happens because gcc determines that it's better to not inline the
function. Avoid this by just marking the function as __always_inline
to force the compiler to do the right thing here.

Pull non-mm updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Arnd Bergmann has fixed a bunch of -Wmissing-prototypes in top-level
   directories

 - Douglas Anderson has added a new "buddy" mode to the hardlockup
   detector. It permits the detector to work on architectures which
   cannot provide the required interrupts, by having CPUs periodically
   perform checks on other CPUs

 - Zhen Lei has enhanced kexec's ability to support two crash regions

 - Petr Mladek has done a lot of cleanup on the hard lockup detector's
   Kconfig entries

 - And the usual bunch of singleton patches in various places

Pull non-mm updates from Andrew Morton:

 - Arnd Bergmann has fixed a bunch of -Wmissing-prototypes in top-level
   directories

 - Douglas Anderson has added a new "buddy" mode to the hardlockup
   detector. It permits the detector to work on architectures which
   cannot provide the required interrupts, by having CPUs periodically
   perform checks on other CPUs

 - Zhen Lei has enhanced kexec's ability to support two crash regions

 - Petr Mladek has done a lot of cleanup on the hard lockup detector's
   Kconfig entries

 - And the usual bunch of singleton patches in various places

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Introduce cmpxchg128() -- aka. the demise of cmpxchg_double()

   The cmpxchg128() family of functions is basically &amp; functionally the
   same as cmpxchg_double(), but with a saner interface.

   Instead of a 6-parameter horror that forced u128 - u64/u64-halves
   layout details on the interface and exposed users to complexity,
   fragility &amp; bugs, use a natural 3-parameter interface with u128
   types.

 - Restructure the generated atomic headers, and add kerneldoc comments
   for all of the generic atomic{,64,_long}_t operations.

   The generated definitions are much cleaner now, and come with
   documentation.

 - Implement lock_set_cmp_fn() on lockdep, for defining an ordering when
   taking multiple locks of the same type.

   This gets rid of one use of lockdep_set_novalidate_class() in the
   bcache code.

 - Fix raw_cpu_generic_try_cmpxchg() bug due to an unintended variable
   shadowing generating garbage code on Clang on certain ARM builds.

<title>watchdog/hardlockup: declare arch_touch_nmi_watchdog() only in linux/nmi.h</title>

<id>0c68bda69665307bf835b0c433363e5073608c95</id>
<content type='text'>
arch_touch_nmi_watchdog() needs a different implementation for various
hardlockup detector implementations. And it does nothing when
any hardlockup detector is not built at all.

arch_touch_nmi_watchdog() is declared via linux/nmi.h. And it must be
defined as an empty function when there is no hardlockup detector.
It is done directly in this header file for the perf and buddy detectors.
And it is done in the included asm/linux.h for arch specific detectors.

The reason probably is that the arch specific variants build the code
using another conditions. For example, powerpc64/sparc64 builds the code
when CONFIG_PPC_WATCHDOG is enabled.

Another reason might be that these architectures define more functions
in asm/nmi.h anyway.

However the generic code actually knows when the function will be
implemented. It happens when some full featured or the sparc64-specific
hardlockup detector is built.

In particular, CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR can be enabled only when
a generic or arch-specific full featured hardlockup detector is available.
The only exception is sparc64 which can be built even when the global
HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR switch is disabled.

The information about sparc64 is a bit complicated. The hardlockup
detector is built there when CONFIG_HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG is set and
CONFIG_HAVE_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_ARCH is not set.

People might wonder whether this change really makes things easier.
The motivation is:

  + The current logic in linux/nmi.h is far from obvious.
    For example, arch_touch_nmi_watchdog() is defined as {} when
    neither CONFIG_HARDLOCKUP_DETECTOR_COUNTS_HRTIMER nor
    CONFIG_HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG is defined.

  + The change synchronizes the checks in lib/Kconfig.debug and
    in the generic code.

  + It is a step that will help cleaning HAVE_NMI_WATCHDOG related
    checks.

The change should not change the existing behavior.

The init/main.c file contains some extern declarations for functions
defined in architecture code, and it defines some other functions that are
called from architecture code with a custom prototype.  Both of those
result in warnings with 'make W=1':

Some atomics can be implemented in several different ways, e.g.
FULL/ACQUIRE/RELEASE ordered atomics can be implemented in terms of
RELAXED atomics, and ACQUIRE/RELEASE/RELAXED can be implemented in terms
of FULL ordered atomics. Other atomics are optional, and don't exist in
some configurations (e.g. not all architectures implement the 128-bit
cmpxchg ops).

Subsequent patches will require that architectures define a preprocessor
symbol for any atomic (or ordering variant) which is optional. This will
make the fallback ifdeffery more robust, and simplify future changes.

Add the required definitions to arch/sparc.

Some atomics can be implemented in several different ways, e.g.
FULL/ACQUIRE/RELEASE ordered atomics can be implemented in terms of
RELAXED atomics, and ACQUIRE/RELEASE/RELAXED can be implemented in terms
of FULL ordered atomics. Other atomics are optional, and don't exist in
some configurations (e.g. not all architectures implement the 128-bit
cmpxchg ops).

Subsequent patches will require that architectures define a preprocessor
symbol for any atomic (or ordering variant) which is optional. This will
make the fallback ifdeffery more robust, and simplify future changes.

Add the required definitions to arch/sparc.

Most architectures define the atomic/atomic64 xchg and cmpxchg
operations in terms of arch_xchg and arch_cmpxchg respectfully.

Add fallbacks for these cases and remove the trivial cases from arch
code. On some architectures the existing definitions are kept as these
are used to build other arch_atomic*() operations.
