Implement an irq chip to handle interrupts via gpio. The GPIO chip
initialization function now takes a bitmask denoting pins that should
be configured for their alternate function.
changes compared to v1:
- fixed bug on edge interrupt configuration
- accommodated to function name change
- moved definition of VARIANT_NR_IRQS to this patch
- renamed __XTENSA_S6000_IRQ_H to _XTENSA_S6000_IRQ_H as requested

There are four slightly different dma engines on the s6000 family.
One for memory-memory transfers, the other three for memory-device.
This patch implements a platform-specific kernel-API to control these
engines. It is needed for the network, video, audio peripherals on
s6000.

There was already a PLATFORM_NR_IRQS define, which is now accompanied
by a VARIANT_NR_IRQS. To be able to initialize these interrupts,
init_IRQ now calls a variant specific hook.
Changes compared to v1:
- adapted to new CONFIG_VARIANT_IRQ_EXT
- removed definition and call of platform_init_IRQ as there already
is a platform_init_irq defined in asm/platform.h with a weak default
in kernel/platform.c
- renamed variant_init_IRQ to variant_init_irq
Note that I could not find the call site of platform_init_irq although
it is stated in platform.h that it is called from init_IRQ.

The existing xtensa cache handling functions work on page-aligned
memory regions.
These functions are needed for the s6000 dma engine which can work on
a byte-granularity.

This allows the callers to now pass down the full set of FAULT_FLAG_xyz
flags to handle_mm_fault(). All callers have been (mechanically)
converted to the new calling convention, there's almost certainly room
for architectures to clean up their code and then add FAULT_FLAG_RETRY
when that support is added.

The discussion about using "access_ok()" in get_user_pages_fast() (see
commit 7f8189068726492950bf1a2dcfd9b51314560abf: "x86: don't use
'access_ok()' as a range check in get_user_pages_fast()" for details and
end result), made us notice that x86-64 was really being very sloppy
about virtual address checking.
So be way more careful and straightforward about masking x86-64 virtual
addresses:
- All the VIRTUAL_MASK* variants now cover half of the address
space, it's not like we can use the full mask on a signed
integer, and the larger mask just invites mistakes when
applying it to either half of the 48-bit address space.
- /proc/kcore's kc_offset_to_vaddr() becomes a lot more
obvious when it transforms a file offset into a
(kernel-half) virtual address.
- Unify/simplify the 32-bit and 64-bit USER_DS definition to
be based on TASK_SIZE_MAX.
This cleanup and more careful/obvious user virtual address checking also
uncovered a buglet in the x86-64 implementation of strnlen_user(): it
would do an "access_ok()" check on the whole potential area, even if the
string itself was much shorter, and thus return an error even for valid
strings. Our sloppy checking had hidden this.
So this fixes 'strnlen_user()' to do this properly, the same way we
already handled user strings in 'strncpy_from_user()'. Namely by just
checking the first byte, and then relying on fault handling for the
rest. That always works, since we impose a guard page that cannot be
mapped at the end of the user space address space (and even if we
didn't, we'd have the address space hole).

It's really not right to use 'access_ok()', since that is meant for the
normal "get_user()" and "copy_from/to_user()" accesses, which are done
through the TLB, rather than through the page tables.
Why? access_ok() does both too few, and too many checks. Too many,
because it is meant for regular kernel accesses that will not honor the
'user' bit in the page tables, and because it honors the USER_DS vs
KERNEL_DS distinction that we shouldn't care about in GUP. And too few,
because it doesn't do the 'canonical' check on the address on x86-64,
since the TLB will do that for us.
So instead of using a function that isn't meant for this, and does
something else and much more complicated, just do the real rules: we
don't want the range to overflow, and on x86-64, we want it to be a
canonical low address (on 32-bit, all addresses are canonical).

Improve a few details in perfcounter call-chain recording that
makes use of fast-GUP:
- Use ACCESS_ONCE() to observe the pte value. ptes are fundamentally
racy and can be changed on another CPU, so we have to be careful
about how we access them. The PAE branch is already careful with
read-barriers - but the non-PAE and 64-bit side needs an
ACCESS_ONCE() to make sure the pte value is observed only once.
- make the checks a bit stricter so that we can feed it any kind of
cra^H^H^H user-space input ;-)

Before exposing upstream tools to a callchain-samples ABI, tidy it
up to make it more extensible in the future:
Use markers in the IP chain to denote context, use (u64)-1..-4095 range
for these context markers because we use them for ERR_PTR(), so these
addresses are unlikely to be mapped.

Commit b696fdc259f0d94348a9327bed352fac44d4883d ("sparc64: Defer
cpu_data() setup until end of per-cpu data initialization.") broke
bootup for UP builds because the cpu_data() initialization only
occurs in setup_per_cpu_areas() which is never compiled in nor
called in UP builds.
Fix this up by calling the setups directly from init_64.c when
non-SMP.

In case gcc does something funny with the stack frames, or the return
from function code, we would like to detect that.
An arch may implement passing of a variable that is unique to the
function and can be saved on entering a function and can be tested
when exiting the function. Usually the frame pointer can be used for
this purpose.
This patch also implements this for x86. Where it passes in the stack
frame of the parent function, and will test that frame on exit.
There was a case in x86_32 with optimize for size (-Os) where, for a
few functions, gcc would align the stack frame and place a copy of the
return address into it. The function graph tracer modified the copy and
not the actual return address. On return from the funtion, it did not go
to the tracer hook, but returned to the parent. This broke the function
graph tracer, because the return of the parent (where gcc did not do
this funky manipulation) returned to the location that the child function
was suppose to. This caused strange kernel crashes.
This test detected the problem and pointed out where the issue was.
This modifies the parameters of one of the functions that the arch
specific code calls, so it includes changes to arch code to accommodate
the new prototype.
Note, I notice that the parsic arch implements its own push_return_trace.
This is now a generic function and the ftrace_push_return_trace should be
used instead. This patch does not touch that code.

Enable the use of GCC's coverage testing tool gcov [1] with the Linux
kernel. gcov may be useful for:
* debugging (has this code been reached at all?)
* test improvement (how do I change my test to cover these lines?)
* minimizing kernel configurations (do I need this option if the
associated code is never run?)
The profiling patch incorporates the following changes:
* change kbuild to include profiling flags
* provide functions needed by profiling code
* present profiling data as files in debugfs
Note that on some architectures, enabling gcc's profiling option
"-fprofile-arcs" for the entire kernel may trigger compile/link/
run-time problems, some of which are caused by toolchain bugs and
others which require adjustment of architecture code.
For this reason profiling the entire kernel is initially restricted
to those architectures for which it is known to work without changes.
This restriction can be lifted once an architecture has been tested
and found compatible with gcc's profiling. Profiling of single files
or directories is still available on all platforms (see config help
text).
