2015-02-13all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_structAndy Lutomirski
If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack. Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by making the restart_block harder to locate. Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy targets, at least on some architectures. It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less identical on all architectures.

2015-02-02ARC: Dynamically determine BASE_BAUD from DeviceTreeVineet Gupta
8250 earlycon is broken on multi-platform ARC because the UART clk value (BASE_BAUD) is fixed at build time. Instead, determine the appropriate UART clk at runtime; parse the devicetree early for platforms requiring alternate UART clk values (currently only the TB10X platform).

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pci Pull weak function declaration removal from Bjorn Helgaas: "The "weak" attribute is commonly used for the default version of a function, where an architecture can override it by providing a strong version.

That's error-prone because it causes every implementation to be weak, with no strong version at all, and the linker chooses one based on link order.

2014-07-23ARC: [intc] don't mask all IRQ by defaultVineet Gupta
Hardware keeps them enabled on reset, and Linux needs to keep status quo. Any spurious interrupts will be reported/blocked by genirq. This helps remove a SMP IRQ quirk (next commit), where a peripheral IRQ is hard wired to core0, and request_irq()->unmask() happens on core1, keeping the IRQ masked on core0, needing an explicit unmask.
