This code calls cpu_resume() using a straight branch (b), so
now that we have moved cpu_resume() back to .text, this should
be moved there as well. Any direct references to symbols that will
remain in the .data section are replaced with explicit PC-relative

Move cpu_resume() to the .text section where it belongs. Change
the adr reference to sleep_save_sp to an explicit PC relative
reference so sleep_save_sp itself can remain in .data.
This helps prevent linker failure on large kernels, as the code
in the .data section may be too far away to be in range for normal
b/bl instructions.

When building a very large kernel, it is up to the linker to decide
when and where to insert stubs to allow calls to functions that are
out of range for the ordinary b/bl instructions.
However, since the kernel is built as a position dependent binary,
these stubs (aka veneers) may contain absolute addresses, which will
break far calls performed with the MMU off.
For instance, the call from __enable_mmu() in the .head.text section
to __turn_mmu_on() in the .idmap.text section may be turned into
something like this:
c0008168 <__enable_mmu>:
c0008168: f020 0002 bic.w r0, r0, #2
c000816c: f420 5080 bic.w r0, r0, #4096
c0008170: f000 b846 b.w c0008200 <____turn_mmu_on_veneer>
[...]
c0008200 <____turn_mmu_on_veneer>:
c0008200: 4778 bx pc
c0008202: 46c0 nop
c0008204: e59fc000 ldr ip, [pc]
c0008208: e12fff1c bx ip
c000820c: c13dfae1 teqgt sp, r1, ror #21
[...]
c13dfae0 <__turn_mmu_on>:
c13dfae0: 4600 mov r0, r0
[...]
After adding --pic-veneer to the LDFLAGS, the veneer is emitted like
this instead:
c0008200 <____turn_mmu_on_veneer>:
c0008200: 4778 bx pc
c0008202: 46c0 nop
c0008204: e59fc004 ldr ip, [pc, #4]
c0008208: e08fc00c add ip, pc, ip
c000820c: e12fff1c bx ip
c0008210: 013d7d31 teqeq sp, r1, lsr sp
c0008214: 00000000 andeq r0, r0, r0
Note that this particular example is best addressed by moving
.head.text and .idmap.text closer together, but this issue could
potentially affect any code that needs to execute with the
MMU off.

This moves all fixup snippets to the .text.fixup section, which is
a special section that gets emitted along with the .text section
for each input object file, i.e., the snippets are kept much closer
to the code they refer to, which helps prevent linker failure on
large kernels.

This introduces a new .text.fixup input section that gets emitted
together with the .text section for each input object file.
Note that
*(.text)
*(.text.fixup)
is not the same as
*(.text .text.fixup)
and we are looking for the latter, to ensure that fixup snippets that
are assembled into a separate section in the object file do not end
up out of range for the relative branch instructions it contains if
the .text section itself grows very large.
This helps prevent linker failures on large ARM kernels.

When running the 32-bit ARM kernel on ARMv8 capable bare metal (e.g.,
32-bit Android userland and kernel on a Cortex-A53), or as a KVM guest
on a 64-bit host, we should advertise the availability of the Crypto
instructions, so that userland libraries such as OpenSSL may use them.
(Support for the v8 Crypto instructions in the 32-bit build was added
to OpenSSL more than six months ago)
This adds the ID feature bit detection, and sets elf_hwcap2 accordingly.

This patch replaces the 'branch to setup()' instructions embedded
in the PROCINFO structs with the offset to that setup function
relative to the base of the struct. This preserves the position
independent nature of that field, but uses a data item rather
than an instruction.
This is mainly done to prevent linker failures on large kernels,
where the setup function is out of reach for the branch.

When using the IOMMU-backed DMA ops for a device, we store a pointer to
the dma_iommu_mapping structure (used to keep track of the address
space) in the archdata.mapping field of the struct device.
Rather than access this field directly, use the to_dma_iommu_mapping
helper in dma-mapping, so that we don't really care where the mapping
information is held.

Even without an iommu, NO_KERNEL_MAPPING is still convenient to save on
kernel address space in places where we don't need a kernel mapping.
Implement support for it in the two places where we're creating an
expensive mapping.
__alloc_from_pool uses an internal pool from which we already have
virtual addresses, so it's not relevant, and __alloc_simple_buffer uses
alloc_pages, which will always return a lowmem page, which is already
mapped into kernel space, so we can't prevent a mapping for it in that
case.

The pci_mmap_page_range() API should be written to expect offset
values representing PCI memory resource addresses as seen by user
space, through the pci_resource_to_user() API.
ARM relies on the standard implementation of pci_resource_to_user()
which actually is an identity map and exports to user space
PCI memory resources as they are stored in PCI devices resources
structures, which represent CPU physical addresses (fixed-up using
BUS to CPU address conversions) not PCI bus addresses.
Therefore, on ARM platforms where the mapping between CPU and BUS
address is not a 1:1 the current pci_mmap_page_range() implementation is
erroneous, in that an additional shift is applied to an already fixed-up
offset passed from userspace.
Hence, this patch removes the mem_offset from the pgoff calculation
since the offset as passed from user space already represents the CPU
physical address corresponding to the resource to be mapped, ie no
additional offset should be applied.

.. after extensive statistical analysis of my G+ polling, I've come to
the inescapable conclusion that internet polls are bad.
Big surprise.
But "Hurr durr I'ma sheep" trounced "I like online polls" by a 62-to-38%
margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in.
Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who
can't even follow the most basic directions?
In contrast, "v4.0" beat out "v3.20" by a slimmer margin of 56-to-44%,
but with a total of 29,110 votes right now.
Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less
than the almost six thousand votes that the "please ignore" poll got, so
it could be considered noise.
But hey, I asked, so I'll honor the votes.

I've noticed significant locking contention in memory reclaimer around
sb_lock inside grab_super_passive(). Grab_super_passive() is called from
two places: in icache/dcache shrinkers (function super_cache_scan) and
from writeback (function __writeback_inodes_wb). Both are required for
progress in memory allocator.
Grab_super_passive() acquires sb_lock to increment sb->s_count and check
sb->s_instances. It seems sb->s_umount locked for read is enough here:
super-block deactivation always runs under sb->s_umount locked for write.
Protecting super-block itself isn't a problem: in super_cache_scan() sb
is protected by shrinker_rwsem: it cannot be freed if its slab shrinkers
are still active. Inside writeback super-block comes from inode from bdi
writeback list under wb->list_lock.
This patch removes locking sb_lock and checks s_instances under s_umount:
generic_shutdown_super() unlinks it under sb->s_umount locked for write.
New variant is called trylock_super() and since it only locks semaphore,
callers must call up_read(&sb->s_umount) instead of drop_super(sb) when
they're done.

Convert the following where appropriate:
(1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry).
(2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry).
(3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more
complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to
d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in
question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with
a ->d_automount op.
In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being
NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects
d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to
use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer).
Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than
DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS
manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a
case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the
type of the lower dentry.
However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use
the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem.
There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled
DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was
intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes.
The following perl+coccinelle script was used:

Introduce some function for getting the inode (and also the dentry) in an
environment where layered/unioned filesystems are in operation.
The problem is that we have places where we need *both* the union dentry and
the lower source or workspace inode or dentry available, but we can only have
a handle on one of them. Therefore we need to derive the handle to the other
from that.
The idea is to introduce an extra field in struct dentry that allows the union
dentry to refer to and pin the lower dentry.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Arnd Bergmann:
"A few fixes that came in too late to make it into the first set of
pull requests but would still be nice to have in -rc1.
The majority of these are trivial build fixes for bugs that I found
myself using randconfig testing, and a set of two patches from Uwe to
mark DT strings as 'const' where appropriate, to resolve inconsistent
section attributes"

Pull xfs pnfs block layout support from Dave Chinner:
"This contains the changes to XFS needed to support the PNFS block
layout server that you pulled in through Bruce's NFS server tree
merge.
I originally thought that I'd need to merge changes into the NFS
server side, but Bruce had already picked them up and so this is
purely changes to the fs/xfs/ codebase.
Summary:
This update contains the implementation of the PNFS server export
methods that enable use of XFS filesystems as a block layout target"

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull one more batch of power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"These are mostly fixes on top of the previously merged recent PM and
ACPI material.
First, one commit that broke the ACPI LPSS (Low-Power Subsystem)
driver on a Dell box is reverted and there are two stable-candidate
fixes for that driver. Another fix cleans up two recently added ACPI
EC messages that look odd and the printk level of a noisy debug
message in the core ACPI resources handling code is reduced.
In addition to that we have two stable-candidate fixes for the s3c
cpufreq driver, two cpuidle powernv driver updates related to Device
Trees and a PNP subsystem cleanup that will allow us to get rid of
some old ugliness going forward. Also there is a new blacklist entry
for the ACPI backlight code.
Specifics:
- Revert a recent ACPI LPSS driver commit that prevented the touchpad
driver from loading on Dell XPS13 (Jarkko Nikula).
- Make the ACPI LPSS driver disable the I2C controllers and deassert
SPI host controllers resets at startup on Intel BayTrail and
Braswell SoCs in case they have been left in wrong states by the
platform firmware which then may casuse fatal controller driver
failures during resume from hibernation (Mika Westerberg).
- Make two recently added ACPI EC messages look better (Scot Doyle).
- Reduce the printk level of a recently added debug message related
to ACPI resources that may become noisy in some cases (Rafael J
Wysocki).
- Add a new ACPI backlight blacklist entry for Samsung Series 9
(900X3C/900X3D/900X3E/900X4C/900X4D) laptops where the native
backlight interface doesn't work while the ACPI based one does
(Jens Reyer).
- Make the PNP sybsystem's core code use __request_region() followed
by __release_region() instead of __check_region() which then will
allow us to get rid of the latter as it has no more users (Jakub
Sitnicki).
- Fix a build breakage and an issue with two __init functions that
may be called after initialization in the s3c cpufreq driver (Arnd
Bergmann).
- Make the powernv cpuidle driver read target_residency values for
idle states from a Device Tree (as we have the suitable DT bindings
for that now) and improve the parsing of the powermgmt DT node in
that driver (Preeti U Murthy)"
* tag 'pm+acpi-3.20-rc1-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm:
cpuidle: powernv: Avoid endianness conversions while parsing DT
