[ Upstream commit 9e8307ecaf9f8c8b5b3b22145021204c4e73114a ]

For 32-bit processes, we save the full 64-bits of the regs in pt_regs.

But unlike when the userspace actually does load and store
instructions, the top 32-bits don't get automatically truncated by the
cpu in kernel mode (because the kernel doesn't execute with PSTATE_AM
address masking enabled).

So we have to do it by hand.

<title>perf: Provide generic perf_sample_data initialization</title>

This makes it easier to extend perf_sample_data and fixes a bug on arm
and sparc, which failed to set -&gt;raw to NULL, which can cause crashes
when combined with PERF_SAMPLE_RAW.

It also optimizes PowerPC and tracepoint, because the struct
initialization is forced to zero out the whole structure.

[ Upstream commit 8a4fd1e4922413cfdfa6c51a59efb720d904a5eb ]

If we do something like try to print to the OF console from an NMI
while we're already in OpenFirmware, we'll deadlock on the spinlock.

Use a raw spinlock and disable NMIs when we take it.

Commit 085219f79cad89291699bd2bfb21c9fdabafe65f
("sparc32: use proper types in struct stat")

Accidently changed the struct stat uid/gid members
to uid_t and gid_t, but those get set to
__kernel_uid32_t and __kernel_gid32_t respectively.
Those are of type 'int' but the structure is meant
to have 'short'.  So use uid16_t and gid16_t to
correct this.

Thanks to testcase and report from Brad Spengler:

--------------------
#include &lt;stdio.h&gt;

typedef int (* _wee)(void);

int main(void)
{
        char buf[8] = { '\x81', '\xc7', '\xe0', '\x08', '\x81', '\xe8',
                        '\x00', '\x00' };
        _wee wee;
        printf("%p\n", &amp;buf);
        wee = (_wee)&amp;buf;
        wee();

        return 0;
}
--------------------

TSB I-tlb load code tries to use andcc to check the _PAGE_EXEC_4U bit,
but that's bit 12 so it gets sign extended all the way up to bit 63
and the test nearly always passes as a result.

Use sethi to fix the bug.
