When the 'avr32_comparator' clockevent device is registered,
the clockevent core sets the mode of that clockevent device
to CLOCK_EVT_MODE_SHUTDOWN. Due to this, the 'comparator_mode'
function calls the 'cpu_idle_poll_ctrl' to disables idle poll.
This results in the aforementioned warning because the polling
is not enabled yet.
Change the code to only disable idle poll if it is enabled by
the same function to avoid the warning.

Pull s390 lockref enablement from Heiko Carstens:
"Enabling the new lockless lockref variant on s390 would have been
trivial until Tony Luck added a cpu_relax() call into the
CMPXCHG_LOOP(), with commit d472d9d98b46 ("lockref: Relax in cmpxchg
loop")
As already mentioned cpu_relax() is very expensive on s390 since it
yields() the current virtual cpu. So we are talking of several
thousand cycles. Considering this enabling the lockless lockref
variant would contradict the intention of the new semantics. And also
some quick measurements show performance regressions of 50% and more.
Simply removing the cpu_relax() call again seems also not very
desireable since Waiman Long reported that for some workloads the call
improved performance by 5%."

ad65782fba50 (context_tracking: Optimize main APIs off case
with static key) converted context tracking main APIs to inline
function and left ARM asm callers behind.
This can be easily fixed by making ARM calling the post static
keys context tracking function. We just need to replicate the
static key checks there. We'll remove these later when ARM will
support the context tracking static keys.

Some ARC SMP systems lack native atomic R-M-W (LLOCK/SCOND) insns and
can only use atomic EX insn (reg with mem) to build higher level R-M-W
primitives. This includes a SystemC based SMP simulation model.
So rwlocks need to use a protecting spinlock for atomic cmp-n-exchange
operation to update reader(s)/writer count.
The spinlock operation itself looks as follows:
mov reg, 1 ; 1=locked, 0=unlocked
retry:
EX reg, [lock] ; load existing, store 1, atomically
BREQ reg, 1, rety ; if already locked, retry
In single-threaded simulation, SystemC alternates between the 2 cores
with "N" insn each based scheduling. Additionally for insn with global
side effect, such as EX writing to shared mem, a core switch is
enforced too.
Given that, 2 cores doing a repeated EX on same location, Linux often
got into a livelock e.g. when both cores were fiddling with tasklist
lock (gdbserver / hackbench) for read/write respectively as the
sequence diagram below shows:
core1 core2
-------- --------
1. spin lock [EX r=0, w=1] - LOCKED
2. rwlock(Read) - LOCKED
3. spin unlock [ST 0] - UNLOCKED
spin lock [EX r=0,w=1] - LOCKED
-- resched core 1----
5. spin lock [EX r=1] - ALREADY-LOCKED
-- resched core 2----
6. rwlock(Write) - READER-LOCKED
7. spin unlock [ST 0]
8. rwlock failed, retry again
9. spin lock [EX r=0, w=1]
-- resched core 1----
10 spinlock locked in #9, retry #5
11. spin lock [EX gets 1]
-- resched core 2----
...
...
The fix was to unlock using the EX insn too (step 7), to trigger another
SystemC scheduling pass which would let core1 proceed, eliding the
livelock.

Anton reported
| LTP tests syscalls/process_vm_readv01 and process_vm_writev01 fail
| similarly in one testcase test_iov_invalid -> lvec->iov_base.
| Testcase expects errno EFAULT and return code -1,
| but it gets return code 1 and ERRNO is 0 what means success.
Essentially test case was passing a pointer of -1 which access_ok()
was not catching. It was doing [@addr + @sz <= TASK_SIZE] which would
pass for @addr == -1
Fixed that by rewriting as [@addr <= TASK_SIZE - @sz]

On AMD family 14h, applying microcode patch on the a core (core0)
would also affect the other core (core1) in the same compute
unit. The driver would skip applying the patch on core1, but it
still need to update kernel structures to reflect the proper
patch level.
The current logic is not updating the struct
ucode_cpu_info.cpu_sig.rev of the skipped core. This causes the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/microcode/version to report
incorrect patch level as shown below:
$ grep . cpu?/microcode/version
cpu0/microcode/version:0x600063d

On hosts with more than 168 GB of memory, a 32-bit guest may attempt
to grant map an MFN that is error cannot lookup in its mapping of the
m2p table. There is an m2p lookup as part of m2p_add_override() and
m2p_remove_override(). The lookup falls off the end of the mapped
portion of the m2p and (because the mapping is at the highest virtual
address) wraps around and the lookup causes a fault on what appears to
be a user space address.
do_page_fault() (thinking it's a fault to a userspace address), tries
to lock mm->mmap_sem. If the gntdev device is used for the grant map,
m2p_add_override() is called from from gnttab_mmap() with mm->mmap_sem
already locked. do_page_fault() then deadlocks.
The deadlock would most commonly occur when a 64-bit guest is started
and xenconsoled attempts to grant map its console ring.
Introduce mfn_to_pfn_no_overrides() which checks the MFN is within the
mapped portion of the m2p table before accessing the table and use
this in m2p_add_override(), m2p_remove_override(), and mfn_to_pfn()
(which already had the correct range check).
All faults caused by accessing the non-existant parts of the m2p are
thus within the kernel address space and exception_fixup() is called
without trying to lock mm->mmap_sem.
This means that for MFNs that are outside the mapped range of the m2p
then mfn_to_pfn() will always look in the m2p overrides. This is
correct because it must be a foreign MFN (and the PFN in the m2p in
this case is only relevant for the other domain).

We've been keeping that field in thread_struct for a while, it contains
the "limit" of the current stack pointer and is meant to be used for
detecting stack overflows.
It has a few problems however:
- First, it was never actually *used* on 64-bit. Set and updated but
not actually exploited
- When switching stack to/from irq and softirq stacks, it's update
is racy unless we hard disable interrupts, which is costly. This
is fine on 32-bit as we don't soft-disable there but not on 64-bit.
Thus rather than fixing 2 in order to implement 1 in some hypothetical
future, let's remove the code completely from 64-bit. In order to avoid
a clutter of ifdef's, we remove the updates from C code completely
during interrupt stack switching, and instead maintain it from the
asm helper that is used to do the stack switching in the first place.

Nowadays, irq_exit() calls __do_softirq() pretty much directly
instead of calling do_softirq() which switches to the decicated
softirq stack.
This has lead to observed stack overflows on powerpc since we call
irq_enter() and irq_exit() outside of the scope that switches to
the irq stack.
This fixes it by moving the stack switching up a level, making
irq_enter() and irq_exit() run off the irq stack.

functions either don't exist or are already declared in other headers.
This is needed in preparation of of_irq.h clean-up.

xen_init_spinlocks() currently calls static_key_slow_inc() before
jump_label_init() is invoked. When CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL is set (which usually is
the case) the effect of this static_key_slow_inc() is deferred until after
jump_label_init(). This is different from when CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL is not set, in
which case the key is set immediately. Thus, depending on the value of config
option, we may observe different behavior.
In addition, when we come to __jump_label_transform() from jump_label_init(),
the key (paravirt_ticketlocks_enabled) is already enabled. On processors where
ideal_nop is not the same as default_nop this will cause a BUG() since it is
expected that before a key is enabled the latter is replaced by the former
during initialization.
To address this problem we need to move
static_key_slow_inc(¶virt_ticketlocks_enabled) so that it is called
after jump_label_init(). We also need to make sure that this is done before
other cpus start to boot. early_initcall appears to be a good place to do so.
(Note that we cannot move whole xen_init_spinlocks() there since pv_lock_ops
need to be set before alternative_instructions() runs.)

Patch 638591c enabled building the AES assembler code in Thumb2 mode.
However, this code used arithmetic involving PC rather than adr{l}
instructions to generate PC-relative references to the lookup tables,
and this needs to take into account the different PC offset when
running in Thumb mode.

This prevents the linker erroring with:
arm-linux-ld: error: arch/arm/lib/xor-neon.o uses VFP instructions, whereas arch/arm/lib/built-in.o does not
arm-linux-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file arch/arm/lib/xor-neon.o
This is due to the non-neon files being marked as containing FPA data/
instructions (even though they do not) being mixed with files which
contain VFP, which is an incompatible floating point format.

Commit 377747c40657 ("ARM: entry: allow ARM-private syscalls to be
restarted") reworked the low-level syscall dispatcher to allow
restarting of ARM-private syscalls. Unfortunately, this relocated the
label used to dispatch a private syscall from the trace path, so that
the invocation would be bypassed altogether!
This causes applications to fail under strace as soon as they rely on
a private syscall (e.g. set_tls):
set_tls(0xb6fad4c0, 0xb6fadb98, 0xb6fb1050, 0xb6fad4c0, 0xb6fb1050)
= -1 ENOSYS (Function not implemented)
This patch fixes the label so that we correctly dispatch private
syscalls from the trace path.
