commit 77d6273e79e3a86552fcf10cdd31a69b46ed2ce6 upstream.

call12 can't be safely used as the first call in the inline function,
because the compiler does not extend the stack frame of the bounding
function accordingly, which may result in corruption of local variables.

If a call needs to be done, do call8 first followed by call12.

For pure assembly code in _switch_to increase stack frame size of the
bounding function.

commit 4229fb12a03e5da5882b420b0aa4a02e77447b86 upstream.

Userspace return code may skip restoring THREADPTR register if there are
no registers that need to be zeroed. This leads to spurious failures in
libc NPTL tests.

Always restore THREADPTR on return to userspace.

Pull Xtensa updates from Chris Zankel:

 - fix linker script transformation for .text / .text.fixup

 - wire bpf and execveat syscalls

 - provide __NR_sync_file_range2 instead of __NR_sync_file_range, as
   that's what xtensa uses.

 - make xtfpgs LCD driver functional and configurable.  This fixes
   hardware lockup on KC705/ML605 boot

 - add audio subsystem bits to xtfpga DTS and provide sample KC705
   config with audio features enabled

 - add CY7C67300 USB controller support to XTFPGA

 - fix locking issues in ISS network driver

 - document PIC and MX interrupt distributor device tree bindings

<title>xtensa: Fix fix linker script transformation for .text / .text.fixup</title>

Commit 779c88c94c34 ("ARM: 8321/1: asm-generic: introduce .text.fixup
input section") introduced a new .text.fixup section which is merged
with .text at link time. This causes xtensa builds to fail with lots
of error messages similar to the following.

lib/lib.a(kobject.o): In function `kobject_create':
(.text+0x498): dangerous relocation: l32r: literal placed after use:
				     (.literal+0x150)

Linker script transformation needs to be updated to detect and handle
the new section.
