The generic header file is equivalent to the MIPS one, so use the
generic one instead.

Pull strscpy string copy function implementation from Chris Metcalf.
Chris sent this during the merge window, but I waffled back and forth on
the pull request, which is why it's going in only now.
The new "strscpy()" function is definitely easier to use and more secure
than either strncpy() or strlcpy(), both of which are horrible nasty
interfaces that have serious and irredeemable problems.
strncpy() has a useless return value, and doesn't NUL-terminate an
overlong result. To make matters worse, it pads a short result with
zeroes, which is a performance disaster if you have big buffers.
strlcpy(), by contrast, is a mis-designed "fix" for strlcpy(), lacking
the insane NUL padding, but having a differently broken return value
which returns the original length of the source string. Which means
that it will read characters past the count from the source buffer, and
you have to trust the source to be properly terminated. It also makes
error handling fragile, since the test for overflow is unnecessarily
subtle.
strscpy() avoids both these problems, guaranteeing the NUL termination
(but not excessive padding) if the destination size wasn't zero, and
making the overflow condition very obvious by returning -E2BIG. It also
doesn't read past the size of the source, and can thus be used for
untrusted source data too.
So why did I waffle about this for so long?
Every time we introduce a new-and-improved interface, people start doing
these interminable series of trivial conversion patches.
And every time that happens, somebody does some silly mistake, and the
conversion patch to the improved interface actually makes things worse.
Because the patch is mindnumbing and trivial, nobody has the attention
span to look at it carefully, and it's usually done over large swatches
of source code which means that not every conversion gets tested.
So I'm pulling the strscpy() support because it *is* a better interface.
But I will refuse to pull mindless conversion patches. Use this in
places where it makes sense, but don't do trivial patches to fix things
that aren't actually known to be broken.
* 'strscpy' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile:
tile: use global strscpy() rather than private copy
string: provide strscpy()
Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures

The context introduced by MSA needs to be saved around signals. However,
we can't increase the size of struct sigcontext because that will change
the offset of the signal mask in struct sigframe or struct ucontext.
This patch instead places the new context immediately after the struct
sigframe for traditional signals, or similarly after struct ucontext for
RT signals. The layout of struct sigframe & struct ucontext is identical
from their sigcontext fields onwards, so the offset from the sigcontext
to the extended context will always be the same regardless of the type
of signal.
Userland will be able to search through the extended context by using
the magic values to detect which types of context are present. Any
unrecognised context can be skipped over using the size field of struct
extcontext. Once the magic value END_EXTCONTEXT_MAGIC is seen it is
known that there are no further extended context structures to examine.
This approach is somewhat similar to that taken by ARM to save VFP &
other context at the end of struct ucontext.
Userland can determine whether extended context is present by checking
for the USED_EXTCONTEXT bit in the sc_used_math field of struct
sigcontext. Whilst this could potentially change the historic semantics
of sc_used_math if further extended context which does not imply FP
context were to be introduced in the future, I have been unable to find
any userland code making use of sc_used_math at all. Using one of the
fields described as unused in struct sigcontext was considered, but the
kernel does not already write to those fields so there would be no
guarantee of the field being clear on older kernels. Other alternatives
would be to have userland check the kernel version, or to have a HWCAP
bit indicating presence of extended context. However there is a desire
to have the context & information required to decode it be self
contained such that, for example, debuggers could decode the saved
context easily.

Commit 2ae416b142b6 ("mm: new mm hook framework") introduced an empty
header file (mm-arch-hooks.h) for every architecture, even those which
doesn't need to define mm hooks.
As suggested by Geert Uytterhoeven, this could be cleaned through the use
of a generic header file included via each per architecture
asm/include/Kbuild file.
The PowerPC architecture is not impacted here since this architecture has
to defined the arch_remap MM hook.

Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the
generic version, which previously only supported big-endian.
Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in
any case is also not present for the existing BE-only
implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS.
Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures
that didn't previously have it.

However, all of them are used in the MIPS specific checksum implementation.

As there are now no remaining users of arch_fast_hash(), lets kill
it entirely.
This basically reverts commit 71ae8aac3e19 ("lib: introduce arch
optimized hash library") and follow-up work, that is f.e., commit
237217546d44 ("lib: hash: follow-up fixups for arch hash"),
commit e3fec2f74f7f ("lib: Add missing arch generic-y entries for
asm-generic/hash.h") and last but not least commit 6a02652df511

Adds cma support to the MIPS architecture.
cma uses memblock. However, mips uses bootmem.
bootmem is informed about any regions reserved by memblock
dma api is modified to use cma reserved memory regions when available
Tested using cma_test. cma_test is a simple driver that assigns blocks
of memory from cma reserved sections.

The struct user definition in this file is not used anywhere (the ELF
core dumper does not use that format). Therefore, remove the header and
instead enable the asm-generic user.h which is an empty header to
satisfy a few generic headers which still try to include user.h.

In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.
Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large
timestamp values.
v2:
Move arch-specific bits out of generic code.
v3:
Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups
v7:
Generic arch bits in Kbuild.

Place comments in:
arch/mips/include/asm/Kbuild
arch/tile/include/arch/Kbuild
to make them non-empty so that the patch program doesn't remove them when it
reduces them to nothing.
Possibly they should be just deleted, but it's possible that they'll acquire
generic-y or genhdr-y lines in future, so I'm keeping them around for the
moment.
Note that MIPS will compile happily if the file is deleted instead. I haven't
tested TILE, but I suspect it will be the same there.
