   - cpu_mask simplifications

   - kexec, rapidio, MAINTAINERS etc, etc.

   - more dma-mapping cleanups/simplifications from hch"

Move the generic implementation to &lt;linux/dma-mapping.h&gt; now that all
architectures support it and remove the HAVE_DMA_ATTR Kconfig symbol now
that everyone supports them.

Add a helper to check if an object (given an address and a size) is part
of a section (given beginning and end addresses).  For convenience, also
provide a helper that performs this check for __init data using the
__init_begin and __init_end limits.

Similar to the conversion of vm_insert_mixed() use pfn_t in the
vmf_insert_pfn_pmd() to tag the resulting pte with _PAGE_DEVICE when the
pfn is backed by a devm_memremap_pages() mapping.

With new refcounting we don't need to mark PMDs splitting.  Let's drop
code to handle this.

__phys_to_pfn and __pfn_to_phys are symmetric, PHYS_PFN and PFN_PHYS are
semmetric:

 - y = (phys_addr_t)x &lt;&lt; PAGE_SHIFT

 - y &gt;&gt; PAGE_SHIFT = (phys_add_t)x

 - (unsigned long)(y &gt;&gt; PAGE_SHIFT) = x

[akpm@linux-foundation.org: use macro arg name `x']

<title>asm-generic: implement virt_xxx memory barriers</title>

Guests running within virtual machines might be affected by SMP effects even if
the guest itself is compiled without SMP support.  This is an artifact of
interfacing with an SMP host while running an UP kernel.  Using mandatory
barriers for this use-case would be possible but is often suboptimal.

In particular, virtio uses a bunch of confusing ifdefs to work around
this, while xen just uses the mandatory barriers.

To better handle this case, low-level virt_mb() etc macros are made available.
These are implemented trivially using the low-level __smp_xxx macros,
the purpose of these wrappers is to annotate those specific cases.

These have the same effect as smp_mb() etc when SMP is enabled, but generate
identical code for SMP and non-SMP systems. For example, virtual machine guests
should use virt_mb() rather than smp_mb() when synchronizing against a
(possibly SMP) host.
