Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
"A number of ARM updates for -rc, covering mostly ARM specific code,
but with one change to modpost.c to allow Thumb section mismatches to
be detected.
ARM changes include reporting when an attempt is made to boot a LPAE
kernel on hardware which does not support LPAE, rather than just being
silent about it.
A number of other minor fixes are included too"

Currently symbols that are absolute addresses are incorrectly displayed
in /proc/kallsyms if the kernel is loaded with kASLR.
The problem was that the scripts/kallsyms.c file which generates the
array of symbol names and addresses uses an relocatable value for all
symbols, even absolute symbols. This patch fixes that.
Several kallsyms output in different boot states for comparison:
$ egrep '_(stext|_per_cpu_(start|end))' /root/kallsyms.nokaslr

LZ4 as implemented in the kernel differs from the default method now
used by the reference implementation of LZ4. Until the in-kernel method
is updated to support the new default, passing the legacy flag (-l) to
the compressor is necessary. Without this flag the kernel-generated,
LZ4-compressed initramfs is junk.
Kyungsik said:
: It seems that lz4 supports legacy format with the same option as lz4c
: does. Just looking at the first few bytes of lz4 compressed image, we can
: see whether it is new format or not.

: It shows new format magic number without this patch. New format magic

The testcase data is usable by any platform. This patch moves it into
the drivers/of directory so it can be included by any architecture.
Using the test cases requires manually adding #include <testcases.dtsi>
to the end of the boards .dtsi file and enabling CONFIG_OF_SELFTEST. Not
pretty though. A useful project would be to make the testcase code
easier to execute.

Since git v1.7.7, the .git directory can be a file when, for example,
the kernel is a submodule of another git super project. So, the check
"-d .git" is not working anymore in this case. Using a more generic
check like "-e .git" corrects this behaviour.

Commit afe2dab4f6 ("USB: add hex/bcd detection to usb modalias generation")
changed the routine that generates alias ranges. Before that change, only
digits 0-9 were supported; the commit tried to fix the case when the range
includes higher values than 0x9.
Unfortunately, the commit didn't fix the case when the range includes both
0x9 and 0xA, meaning that the final range must look like [x-9A-y] where
x <= 0x9 and y >= 0xA -- instead the [x-9A-x] range was produced.
Modprobe doesn't complain as it sees no difference between no-match and
bad-pattern results of fnmatch().
Fixing this simple bug to fix the aliases.
Also changing the hardcoded beginning of the range to uppercase as all the
other letters are also uppercase in the device version numbers.
Fortunately, this affects only the dvb-usb-dib0700 module, AFAIK.

some errors in real mode such as TLB errors, handle SLB errors,
etc...

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm
Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"As far as the number of commits goes, the top spot belongs to ACPI
this time with cpufreq in the second position and a handful of PM
core, PNP and cpuidle updates. They are fixes and cleanups mostly, as
usual, with a couple of new features in the mix.
The most visible change is probably that we will create struct
acpi_device objects (visible in sysfs) for all devices represented in
the ACPI tables regardless of their status and there will be a new
sysfs attribute under those objects allowing user space to check that
status via _STA.
Consequently, ACPI device eject or generally hot-removal will not
delete those objects, unless the table containing the corresponding
namespace nodes is unloaded, which is extremely rare. Also ACPI
container hotplug will be handled quite a bit differently and cpufreq
will support CPU boost ("turbo") generically and not only in the
acpi-cpufreq driver.
Specifics:
- ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for
every device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace
scans regardless of the current status of that device. In
accordance with this, ACPI hotplug operations will not delete those
objects, unless the underlying ACPI tables go away.
- On top of the above, new sysfs attribute for ACPI device objects
allowing user space to check device status by triggering the
execution of _STA for its ACPI object. From Srinivas Pandruvada.
- ACPI core hotplug changes reducing code duplication, integrating
the PCI root hotplug with the core and reworking container hotplug.
- ACPI core simplifications making it use ACPI_COMPANION() in the
code "glueing" ACPI device objects to "physical" devices.
- ACPICA update to upstream version 20131218. This adds support for
the DBG2 and PCCT tables to ACPICA, fixes some bugs and improves
debug facilities. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng and Betty Dall.
- Init code change to carry out the early ACPI initialization
earlier. That should allow us to use ACPI during the timekeeping
initialization and possibly to simplify the EFI initialization too.
From Chun-Yi Lee.
- Clenups of the inclusions of ACPI headers in many places all over
from Lv Zheng and Rashika Kheria (work in progress).
- New helper for ACPI _DSM execution and rework of the code in
drivers that uses _DSM to execute it via the new helper. From
Jiang Liu.
- New Win8 OSI blacklist entries from Takashi Iwai.
- Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups from Al Stone, Emil Goode, Hanjun
Guo, Lan Tianyu, Masanari Iida, Oliver Neukum, Prarit Bhargava,
Rashika Kheria, Tang Chen, Zhang Rui.
- intel_pstate driver updates, including proper Baytrail support,
from Dirk Brandewie and intel_pstate documentation from Ramkumar
Ramachandra.

Majewski.

This change restricts the check for the for the FSF address in the GPL
copyright statement so that it only flags the address, not the
references to the gnu.org/licenses URL which appears to be used in
numerous drivers. The idea is to still allow some reference to an
external copy of the GPL in the event that files are copied out of the
kernel tree without the COPYING file.
So for example this statement will still return an error:
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA.
However, this statement will not return an error after this patch:

switch case statements missing a break statement are an unfortunately
common error.
e.g.:
commit 4a2c94c9b6c0 ("HID: kye: Add report fixup for Genius Manticore Keyboard")
case blocks should end in a break/return/goto/continue.
If a fall-through is used, it should have a comment showing that it is
intentional. Ideally that comment should be something like:
"/* fall-through */"
Add a test to look for missing break statements.
This looks only at the context lines before an inserted case so it's
possible to have false positives when the context contains a close brace
and the break is before the brace and not part of the patch context.
Looking at recent patches, this is a pretty rare occurrence. The normal
kernel style uses a break as the last line of the previous block.

get_maintainer currently uses "Signed-off-by" style lines to find
interested parties to send patches to when the MAINTAINERS file does not
have a specific section entry with a matching file pattern.
Add statistics for commit authors and lines added and deleted to the
information provided by --rolestats.
These statistics are also emitted whenever --rolestats and --git are
selected even when there is a specified maintainer.
This can have the effect of expanding the number of people that are shown
as possible "maintainers" of a particular file because "authors",
"added_lines", and "removed_lines" are also used as criterion for the
--max-maintainers option separate from the "commit_signers".
The first "--git-max-maintainers" values of each criterion
are emitted. Any "ties" are not shown.
For example: (forcedeth does not have a named maintainer)

"make headers_check" warns about soundcard.h for (at least) five years
now:
[...]/usr/include/linux/soundcard.h:1054: userspace cannot reference function or variable defined in the kernel
We're apparently stuck with providing OSSlib-3.8 compatibility, so let's
special case this declaration just to silence it.
Notes:
0) Support for OSSlib post 3.8 was already removed in commit 43a990765a
("sound: Remove OSSlib stuff from linux/soundcard.h"). Five years have
passed since that commit: do people still care about OSSlib-3.8? If
not, quite a bit of code could be remove from soundcard.h (and probably
ultrasound.h).
2) By the way, what is actually meant by:
It is no longer possible to actually link against OSSlib with this
header, but we still provide these macros for programs using them.
Doesn't that mean compatibility to OSSlib isn't even useful?
3) Anyhow, a previous discussion soundcard.h, which led to that commit,
starts at https://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/20/349 .
4) And, yes, I sneaked in a whitespace fix.

This tool is designed to assist kernel and OS developers in optimizing
their linux stack's suspend/resume time. Using a kernel image built with a
few extra options enabled, the tool will execute a suspend and will
capture dmesg and ftrace data until resume is complete. This data is
transformed into a device timeline and a callgraph to give a quick and
detailed view of which devices and callbacks are taking the most time in
suspend/resume. The output is a single html file which can be viewed in
firefox or chrome.

As commit a9468f30b5eac6 "ARM: 7333/2: jump label: detect %c
support for ARM", this patch detects the same thing for ARM64
because some ARM64 GCC versions have the same issue.
Some versions of ARM64 GCC which do support asm goto, do not
support the %c specifier. Since we need the %c to support jump
labels on ARM64, detect that too in the asm goto detection script
to avoid build errors with these versions.

builddeb generates a control file that says the linux-headers package
can only be built for the build system primary architecture. This
breaks cross-building configurations. We should use $debarch for this
instead.
Since $debarch is not yet set when generating the control file, set
Architecture: any and use control file variables to fill in the

setlocalversion script was testing the presence of .git directory in
order to find out if git is used as SCM to track the current kernel
project. However in some cases, .git is not a directory but can be a
file: when the kernel is a git submodule part of a git super project for
example.
This patch just fixes this by using 'git rev-parse --show-cdup' to check
that the current directory is the kernel git topdir. This has the
advantage to not test and rely on git internal infrastructure directly.

As indicated by Sekhar in [1], there seems to be a tendency to use
IS_ERR_VALUE to check the error result for pm_runtime_* functions which
make no sense considering commit c48cd65 (ARM: OMAP: use consistent
error checking) - the error values can either be < 0 for error OR
0, 1 in cases where we have success.
So, setup a coccinelle script to help identify the same.

Actually CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET isn't same with PAGE_OFFSET, so
it isn't easy to figue out PAGE_OFFSET defined in header
file from scripts.
Because CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET may not be defined in some ARCHs(
64bit ARCH), or defined as bogus value in !MMU case, so
this patch only applys the filter on ARM when CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET
is defined as the original problem is only on ARM.
