This allows configuring with allnoconfig (for tilegx) or allyesconfig
(for tilepro) without creating an unbuildable configuration.

<title>EDAC: Cleanup atomic_scrub mess</title>

<id>b01aec9b2c7d32f17a37553df63efa9f7c0fdaa0</id>
<content type='text'>
So first of all, this atomic_scrub() function's naming is bad. It looks
like an atomic_t helper. Change it to edac_atomic_scrub().

The bigger problem is that this function is arch-specific and every new
arch which doesn't necessarily need that functionality still needs to
define it, otherwise EDAC doesn't compile.

So instead of doing that and including arch-specific headers, have each
arch define an EDAC_ATOMIC_SCRUB symbol which can be used in edac_mc.c
for ifdeffery. Much cleaner.

And we already are doing this with another symbol - EDAC_SUPPORT. This
is also much cleaner than having CONFIG_EDAC enumerate all the arches
which need/have EDAC support and drivers.

This way I can kill the useless edac.h header in tile too.

<title>tile: improve stack backtrace</title>

<id>47ad7b9bbeaac34e43d9dc8db796f1f68194b9ad</id>
<content type='text'>
This commit fixes a number of issues with the tile backtrace code.

- Don't try to identify userspace shared object or executable paths
  if we are doing a backtrace from an interrupt; it's not legal,
  and also unlikely to be interesting.  Likewise, don't try to do
  it for other address spaces, since d_path() assumes it is being
  called in "current" context.

- Move "in_backtrace" from thread_struct to thread_info.
  This way we can access it even if our stack thread_info has been
  clobbered, which makes backtracing more robust.

- Avoid using "current" directly when testing for is_sigreturn().
  Since "current" may be corrupt, we're better off using kbt-&gt;task
  explicitly to look up the vdso_base for the current task.
  Conveniently, this simplifies the internal APIs (we only need
  one is_sigreturn() function now).

- Avoid bogus "Odd fault" warning when pc/sp/ex1 are all zero,
  as is true for kernel threads above the last frame.

- Hook into Tejun Heo's dump_stack() framework in lib/dump_stack.c.

- Write last entry in save_stack_trace() as ULONG_MAX, not zero,
  since ftrace (at least) relies on finding that marker.

- Implement save_stack_trace_regs() and save_strack_trace_user(),
  and set CONFIG_USER_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT.

This change enables the generic strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user()
using word-at-a-time.h.  The tile implementation is trivial since
both tilepro and tilegx have SIMD operations that do byte-wise
comparisons against immediate zero for each byte, and return an
0x01 byte in each position where there is a 0x00 byte.

Add the TIF_NOHZ flag appropriately.

Add call to user_exit() on entry to do_work_pending() and on entry
to syscalls via do_syscall_trace_enter(), and also the top of
do_syscall_trace_exit() just because it's done in x86.

Add call to user_enter() at the bottom of do_work_pending() once we
have no more work to do before returning to userspace.

Wrap all the trap code in exception_enter() / exception_exit().

New system call depends on crypto.  As it did not have a separate config
option, CONFIG_KEXEC was modified to select CRYPTO and CRYPTO_SHA256.

But now previous patch introduced a new config option for new syscall.
So CONFIG_KEXEC does not require crypto.  Remove that dependency.
