Currently, every arch/*/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild explicitly includes
the common Kbuild.asm file. Factor out the duplicated include directives
to scripts/Makefile.asm-generic so that no architecture would opt out
of the mandatory-y mechanism.

um is not forced to include mandatory-y since it is a very exceptional
case which does not support UAPI.

Pull pidfd system call from Christian Brauner:
 "This introduces the ability to use file descriptors from /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/
  as stable handles on struct pid. Even if a pid is recycled the handle
  will not change. For a start these fds can be used to send signals to
  the processes they refer to.

  With the ability to use /proc/&lt;pid&gt; fds as stable handles on struct
  pid we can fix a long-standing issue where after a process has exited
  its pid can be reused by another process. If a caller sends a signal
  to a reused pid it will end up signaling the wrong process.

  With this patchset we enable a variety of use cases. One obvious
  example is that we can now safely delegate an important part of
  process management - sending signals - to processes other than the
  parent of a given process by sending file descriptors around via scm
  rights and not fearing that the given process will have been recycled
  in the meantime. It also allows for easy testing whether a given
  process is still alive or not by sending signal 0 to a pidfd which is
  quite handy.

  There has been some interest in this feature e.g. from systems
  management (systemd, glibc) and container managers. I have requested
  and gotten comments from glibc to make sure that this syscall is
  suitable for their needs as well. In the future I expect it to take on
  most other pid-based signal syscalls. But such features are left for
  the future once they are needed.

  This has been sitting in linux-next for quite a while and has not
  caused any issues. It comes with selftests which verify basic
  functionality and also test that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via
  a pidfd.

  Jon has written about a prior version of this patchset. It should
  cover the basic functionality since not a lot has changed since then:

      https://lwn.net/Articles/773459/

  The commit message for the syscall itself is extensively documenting
  the syscall, including it's functionality and extensibility"

Pull device-dax updates from Dan Williams:
 "New device-dax infrastructure to allow persistent memory and other
  "reserved" / performance differentiated memories, to be assigned to
  the core-mm as "System RAM".

  Some users want to use persistent memory as additional volatile
  memory. They are willing to cope with potential performance
  differences, for example between DRAM and 3D Xpoint, and want to use
  typical Linux memory management apis rather than a userspace memory
  allocator layered over an mmap() of a dax file. The administration
  model is to decide how much Persistent Memory (pmem) to use as System
  RAM, create a device-dax-mode namespace of that size, and then assign
  it to the core-mm. The rationale for device-dax is that it is a
  generic memory-mapping driver that can be layered over any "special
  purpose" memory, not just pmem. On subsequent boots udev rules can be
  used to restore the memory assignment.

  One implication of using pmem as RAM is that mlock() no longer keeps
  data off persistent media. For this reason it is recommended to enable
  NVDIMM Security (previously merged for 5.0) to encrypt pmem contents
  at rest. We considered making this recommendation an actively enforced
  requirement, but in the end decided to leave it as a distribution /
  administrator policy to allow for emulation and test environments that
  lack security capable NVDIMMs.

  Summary:

   - Replace the /sys/class/dax device model with /sys/bus/dax, and
     include a compat driver so distributions can opt-in to the new ABI.

   - Allow for an alternative driver for the device-dax address-range

   - Introduce the 'kmem' driver to hotplug / assign a device-dax
     address-range to the core-mm.

   - Arrange for the device-dax target-node to be onlined so that the
     newly added memory range can be uniquely referenced by numa apis"

NOTE! I'm not entirely happy with the whole "PMEM as RAM" model because
we currently have special - and very annoying rules in the kernel about
accessing PMEM only with the "MC safe" accessors, because machine checks
inside the regular repeat string copy functions can be fatal in some
(not described) circumstances.

And apparently the PMEM modules can cause that a lot more than regular
RAM.  The argument is that this happens because PMEM doesn't necessarily
get scrubbed at boot like RAM does, but that is planned to be added for
the user space tooling.

Quoting Dan from another email:
 "The exposure can be reduced in the volatile-RAM case by scanning for
  and clearing errors before it is onlined as RAM. The userspace tooling
  for that can be in place before v5.1-final. There's also runtime
  notifications of errors via acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() from
  background scrubbers on the DIMM devices. With that mechanism the
  kernel could proactively clear newly discovered poison in the volatile
  case, but that would be additional development more suitable for v5.2.

  I understand the concern, and the need to highlight this issue by
  tapping the brakes on feature development, but I don't see PMEM as RAM
  making the situation worse when the exposure is also there via DAX in
  the PMEM case. Volatile-RAM is arguably a safer use case since it's
  possible to repair pages where the persistent case needs active
  application coordination"

Pull ARM updates from Russell King:

 - An improvement from Ard Biesheuvel, who noted that the identity map
   setup was taking a long time due to flush_cache_louis().

 - Update a comment about dma_ops from Wolfram Sang.

 - Remove use of "-p" with ld, where this flag has been a no-op since
   2004.

 - Remove the printing of the virtual memory layout, which is no longer
   useful since we hide pointers.

 - Correct SCU help text.

 - Remove legacy TWD registration method.

 - Add pgprot_device() implementation for mapping PCI sysfs resource
   files.

 - Initialise PFN limits earlier for kmemleak.

 - Fix argument count to match macro definition (affects clang builds)

 - Use unified assembler language almost everywhere for clang, and other
   clang improvements (from Stefan Agner, Nathan Chancellor).

 - Support security extension for noMMU and other noMMU cleanups (from
   Vladimir Murzin).

 - Remove unnecessary SMP bringup code (which was incorrectly copy'n'
   pasted from the ARM platform implementations) and remove it from the
   arch code to discourge further copys of it appearing.

 - Add Cortex A9 erratum preventing kexec working on some SoCs.

 - AMBA bus identification updates from Mike Leach.

 - More use of raw spinlocks to avoid -RT kernel issues (from Yang Shi
   and Sebastian Andrzej Siewior).

 - MCPM hyp/svc mode mismatch fixes from Marek Szyprowski.
