Pull ARM SoC platform changes from Olof Johansson:
 "This is the bulk of new SoC enablement and other platform changes for
  3.17:

   - Samsung S5PV210 has been converted to DT and multiplatform
   - Clock drivers and bindings for some of the lower-end i.MX 1/2
     platforms
   - Kirkwood, one of the popular Marvell platforms, is folded into the
     mvebu platform code, removing mach-kirkwood
   - Hwmod data for TI AM43xx and DRA7 platforms
   - More additions of Renesas shmobile platform support
   - Removal of plat-samsung contents that can be removed with S5PV210
     being multiplatform/DT-enabled and the other two old platforms
     being removed

  New platforms (most with only basic support right now):

   - Hisilicon X5HD2 settop box chipset is introduced
   - Mediatek MT6589 (mobile chipset) is introduced
   - Broadcom BCM7xxx settop box chipset is introduced

  + as usual a lot other pieces all over the platform code"

Pull timer and time updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A rather large update of timers, timekeeping &amp; co

   - Core timekeeping code is year-2038 safe now for 32bit machines.
     Now we just need to fix all in kernel users and the gazillion of
     user space interfaces which rely on timespec/timeval :)

   - Better cache layout for the timekeeping internal data structures.

   - Proper nanosecond based interfaces for in kernel users.

   - Tree wide cleanup of code which wants nanoseconds but does hoops
     and loops to convert back and forth from timespecs.  Some of it
     definitely belongs into the ugly code museum.

   - Consolidation of the timekeeping interface zoo.

   - A fast NMI safe accessor to clock monotonic for tracing.  This is a
     long standing request to support correlated user/kernel space
     traces.  With proper NTP frequency correction it's also suitable
     for correlation of traces accross separate machines.

   - Checkpoint/restart support for timerfd.

   - A few NOHZ[_FULL] improvements in the [hr]timer code.

   - Code move from kernel to kernel/time of all time* related code.

   - New clocksource/event drivers from the ARM universe.  I'm really
     impressed that despite an architected timer in the newer chips SoC
     manufacturers insist on inventing new and differently broken SoC
     specific timers.

[ Ed. "Impressed"? I don't think that word means what you think it means ]

   - Another round of code move from arch to drivers.  Looks like most
     of the legacy mess in ARM regarding timers is sorted out except for
     a few obnoxious strongholds.

   - The usual updates and fixlets all over the place"

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
 "Included in this update:

   - perf updates from Will Deacon:

     The main changes are callchain stability fixes from Jean Pihet and
     event mapping and PMU name rework from Mark Rutland

     The latter is preparatory work for enabling some code re-use with
     arm64 in the future.

   - updates for nommu from Uwe Kleine-König:

     Two different fixes for the same problem making some ARM nommu
     configurations not boot since 3.6-rc1.  The problem is that
     user_addr_max returned the biggest available RAM address which
     makes some copy_from_user variants fail to read from XIP memory.

   - deprecate legacy OMAP DMA API, in preparation for it's removal.

     The popular drivers have been converted over, leaving a very small
     number of rarely used drivers, which hopefully can be converted
     during the next cycle with a bit more visibility (and hopefully
     people popping out of the woodwork to help test)

   - more tweaks for BE systems, particularly with the kernel image
     format.  In connection with this, I've cleaned up the way we
     generate the linker script for the decompressor.

   - removal of hard-coded assumptions of the kernel stack size, making
     everywhere depend on the value of THREAD_SIZE_ORDER.

   - MCPM updates from Nicolas Pitre.

   - Make it easier for proper CPU part number checks (which should
     always include the vendor field).

   - Assembly code optimisation - use the "bx" instruction when
     returning from a function on ARMv6+ rather than "mov pc, reg".

   - Save the last kernel misaligned fault location and report it via
     the procfs alignment file.

   - Clean up the way we create the initial stack frame, which is a
     repeated pattern in several different locations.

   - Support for 8-byte get_user(), needed for some DRM implementations.

   - mcs locking from Will Deacon.

   - Save and restore a few more Cortex-A9 registers (for errata
     workarounds)

   - Fix various aspects of the SWP emulation, and the ELF hwcap for the
     SWP instruction.

   - Update LPAE logic for pte_write and pmd_write to make it more

<title>clocksource: exynos_mct: Only use 32-bits where possible</title>

<id>3252a646aa2cf706b2a26433a8bd9cb2e5dce410</id>
<content type='text'>
The MCT has a nice 64-bit counter.  That means that we _can_ register
as a 64-bit clocksource and sched_clock.  ...but that doesn't mean we
should.

The 64-bit counter is read by reading two 32-bit registers.  That
means reading needs to be something like:
- Read upper half
- Read lower half
- Read upper half and confirm that it hasn't changed.

That wouldn't be terrible, but:
- THe MCT isn't very fast to access (hundreds of nanoseconds).
- The clocksource is queried _all the time_.

In total system profiles of real workloads on ChromeOS, we've seen
exynos_frc_read() taking 2% or more of CPU time even after optimizing
the 3 reads above to 2 (see below).

The MCT is clocked at ~24MHz on all known systems.  That means that
the 32-bit half of the counter rolls over every ~178 seconds.  This
inspired an optimization in ChromeOS to cache the upper half between
calls, moving 3 reads to 2.  ...but we can do better!  Having a 32-bit
timer that flips every 178 seconds is more than sufficient for Linux.
Let's just use the lower half of the MCT.

Times on 5420 to do 1000000 gettimeofday() calls from userspace:
* Original code:                      1323852 us
* ChromeOS cache upper half:          1173084 us
* ChromeOS + ldmia to optimize:       1045674 us
* Use lower 32-bit only (this code):  1014429 us

As you can see, the time used doesn't increase linearly with the
number of reads and we can make 64-bit work almost as fast as 32-bit
with a bit of assembly code.  But since there's no real gain for
64-bit, let's go with the simplest and fastest implementation.

Note: with this change roughly half the time for gettimeofday() is
spent in exynos_frc_read().  The rest is timer / system call overhead.

Also note: this patch disables the use of the MCT on ARM64 systems
until we've sorted out how to make "cycles_t" always 32-bit.  Really
ARM64 systems should be using arch timers anyway.

spent in exynos_frc_read().  The rest is timer / system call overhead.

Also note: this patch disables the use of the MCT on ARM64 systems
until we've sorted out how to make "cycles_t" always 32-bit.  Really
ARM64 systems should be using arch timers anyway.

Add device-tree support to PXA platforms.
The driver still needs to maintain backward non device-tree
compatibility as well, which implies :
 - a non device-tree init function
 - a static registers base address in the driver

In the clocksource driver, we didn't explicitly enable the clock. it makes the
clk reference counter wrong. We didn't encounter any hang issue because the
tick's clock input has been open and is shared by some other hardware
components, but if we don't enable those components in kernel, in the stage of
disabling unused clk in kernel boot, Linux tick hangs.

This patch fixes it. it does an explicit prepare and enable to the clock input,
and increases the usage counter of the clk.

<title>clocksource: Kconfig: Let EM_TIMER_STI depend on HAS_IOMEM</title>

In 'em_sti.c', it will call devm_ioremap_resource() which need
HAS_IOMEM. So need let EM_TIMER_STI depend on HAS_IOMEM, too.

The related error (with allmodconfig under score):

  LD      init/built-in.o
em_sti.c:(.text.em_sti_probe+0x84): undefined reference to `devm_ioremap_resource'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
