"A number of fixes:
Patrik found a problem with preempt counting in the VFP assembly
functions which can cause the preempt count to be upset.
Nicolas fixed a problem with the parsing of the DT when it straddles a

Subhash Jadavani reported a problem with sparsemem and our highmem
support for cache maintanence for DMA areas, and TI found a bug in
their strongly ordered memory mapping type.
Also, three fixes by way of Will Deacon's tree from Dave Martin for
instruction compatibility and Marc Zyngier to fix hypervisor boot mode
issues."

Currently __hw_perf_event_init has an err variable that's ignored right
until the end, where it's initialised, conditionally set, and then used
as a boolean flag deciding whether to return another error code.
This patch removes the err variable and simplifies the associated error
handling logic.

We currently check for hwx->idx < 0 in armpmu_read and armpmu_del
unnecessarily. The only case where hwc->idx < 0 is when armpmu_add
fails, in which case the event's state is set to
PERF_EVENT_STATE_INACTIVE.
The perf core will not attempt to read from an event in
PERF_EVENT_STATE_INACTIVE, and so the check in armpmu_read is
unnecessary. Similarly, if perf core cannot add an event it will not
attempt to delete it, so the WARN_ON in armpmu_del is unnecessary.
This patch removes these two redundant checks.

Currently perf_pmu_register may fail for several reasons (e.g. being
unable to allocate memory for the struct device it associates with each
PMU), and while any error is propagated by armpmu_register, it is
ignored by cpu_pmu_device_probe and not propagated to the caller. This
also results in a leak of a struct arm_pmu.
This patch adds cleanup if armpmu_register fails, and updates the info
messages to better differentiate this type of failure from a failure to
probe the PMU type from the hardware or dt.

We currently use a temporary 1MB section aligned to a 1MB boundary for
mapping the provided device tree until the final page table is created.
However, if the device tree happens to cross that 1MB boundary, the end
of it remains unmapped and the kernel crashes when it attempts to access
it. Given no restriction on the location of that DTB, it could end up
with only a few bytes mapped at the end of a section.
Solve this issue by mapping two consecutive sections.

__hyp_stub_install duplicates quite a bit of safe_svcmode_maskall
by forcing the CPU back to SVC. This is unnecessary, as
safe_svcmode_maskall is called just after.
Furthermore, the way we build SPSR_hyp is buggy as we fail to mask
the interrupts, leading to interesting behaviours on TC2 + UEFI.
The fix is to simply remove this code and rely on safe_svcmode_maskall
to do the right thing.

the return value might get bogus just as you are getting it (this instance
doesn't try to dereference the resulting vma), the search itself can get

The .notes, being read-only data by nature, were placed between
read-write .data and .bss. This was harmful in case of the XIP
kernel, as being placed in the RAM range, most likely far
from the ROM address, was inflating the XIP images.
Moving the .notes at the end of the read-only section
(consisting of .text, .rodata and unwind info) fixes the problem.

Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
"All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that
stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.
A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
- kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
or kernel_execve():
kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
successful do_execve() before returning.
kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
do transition to user mode anymore.
As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
architecture-independent.
- daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
- struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.
- sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
kernel/fork.c now."

syscall_trace_exit is currently doing things back-to-front; invoking
the audit hook *after* signalling the debugger, which presents an
opportunity for the registers to be re-written by userspace in order to
bypass auditing constaints.
This patch fixes the ordering by moving the audit code first and the
tracehook code last. On the face of it, it looks like
current_thread_info()->syscall may be incorrect for the sys_exit
tracepoint, but that's actually not an issue because it will have been
set during syscall entry and cannot have changed since then.

Use the previously unused TPIDRPRW register to store percpu offsets.
TPIDRPRW is only accessible in PL1, so it can only be used in the kernel.
This replaces 2 loads with a mrc instruction for each percpu variable
access. With hackbench, the performance improvement is 1.4% on Cortex-A9
(highbank). Taking an average of 30 runs of "hackbench -l 1000" yields:
Before: 6.2191
After: 6.1348
Will Deacon reported similar delta on v6 with 11MPCore.
The asm "memory clobber" are needed here to ensure the percpu offset
gets reloaded. Testing by Will found that this would not happen in
__schedule() which is a bit of a special case as preemption is disabled
but the execution can move cores.

If a kernel is configured with a DT containing more /cpu nodes than
nr_cpu_ids, the number of cpus must be capped in the DT parsing
code. Current code carries out the check, but fails to cap the
value and the check is executed after the cpu logical index is used,
which can lead to memory corruption due to index overflow.
This patch refactors the check against nr_cpu_ids and move it before
any computed index is used in the parsing code.

As soon as the device tree is unflattened the cpu logical to physical
mapping is carried out in setup_arch to build a proper array of MPIDR and
corresponding logical indexes.
The mapping could have been carried out using the flattened DT blob and
related primitives, but since the mapping is not needed by early boot
code it can safely be executed when the device tree has been uncompressed to
its tree data structure.
This patch adds the arm_dt_init_cpu maps() function call in setup_arch().
If the kernel is not compiled with DT support the function is empty and
no logical mapping takes place through it; the mapping carried out in
smp_setup_processor_id() is left unchanged.
If DT is supported the mapping created in smp_setup_processor_id() is overriden.
The DT mapping also sets the possible cpus mask, hence platform
code need not set it again in the respective smp_init_cpus() functions.

When booting through a device tree, the kernel cpu logical id map can be
initialized using device tree data passed by FW or through an embedded blob.
This patch adds a function that parses device tree "cpu" nodes and
retrieves the corresponding CPUs hardware identifiers (MPIDR).
It sets the possible cpus and the cpu logical map values according to
the number of CPUs defined in the device tree and respective properties.
The device tree HW identifiers are considered valid if all CPU nodes contain
a "reg" property, there are no duplicate "reg" entries and the DT defines a
CPU node whose "reg" property matches the MPIDR[23:0] of the boot CPU.
The primary CPU is assigned cpu logical number 0 to keep the current convention
valid.

Currently, reading /proc/cpuinfo provides userspace with CPU ID of
the CPU carrying out the read from the file. This is fine as long as all
CPUs in the system are the same. With the advent of big.LITTLE and
heterogenous ARM systems this approach provides user space with incorrect
bits of information since CPU ids in the system might differ from the one
provided by the CPU reading the file.
This patch updates the cpuinfo show function so that a read from
/proc/cpuinfo prints HW information for all online CPUs at once, mirroring

There is very little difference in the TIF_SECCOMP and TIF_SYSCALL_WORK
path in entry-common.S, so merge TIF_SECCOMP into TIF_SYSCALL_WORK and
move seccomp into the syscall_trace_enter() handler.
Expanded some of the tracehook logic into the callers to make this code
more readable. Since tracehook needs to do register changing, this portion
is best left in its own function instead of copy/pasting into the callers.
Additionally, the return value for secure_computing() is now checked
and a -1 value will result in the system call being skipped.
