As requested by Linus, revert adding __visible to asmlinkage.
Instead we add __visible explicitely to all the symbols
that need it.
This reverts commit 128ea04a9885af9629059e631ddf0cab4815b589.

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"This udpate delivers:
- A fix for dynamic interrupt allocation on x86 which is required to
exclude the GSI interrupts from the dynamic allocatable range.
This was detected with the newfangled tablet SoCs which have GPIOs
and therefor allocate a range of interrupts. The MSI allocations
already excluded the GSI range, so we never noticed before.
- The last missing set_irq_affinity() repair, which was delayed due
to testing issues
- A few bug fixes for the armada SoC interrupt controller
- A memory allocation fix for the TI crossbar interrupt controller
- A trivial kernel-doc warning fix"

Pull ftrace bugfix from Steven Rostedt:
"Takao Indoh reported that he was able to cause a ftrace bug while
loading a module and enabling function tracing at the same time.
He uncovered a race where the module when loaded will convert the
calls to mcount into nops, and expects the module's text to be RW.
But when function tracing is enabled, it will convert all kernel text
(core and module) from RO to RW to convert the nops to calls to ftrace
to record the function. After the convertion, it will convert all the
text back from RW to RO.
The issue is, it will also convert the module's text that is loading.
If it converts it to RO before ftrace does its conversion, it will
cause ftrace to fail and require a reboot to fix it again.
This patch moves the ftrace module update that converts calls to
mcount into nops to be done when the module state is still
MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED. This will ignore the module when the text is
being converted from RW back to RO"

A race exists between module loading and enabling of function tracer.

including the module that is
loading!! ]

ftrace_init_module()
[ tries to modify code, but it's RO, and fails!
ftrace_bug() is called]
When this race happens, ftrace_bug() will produces a nasty warning and
all of the function tracing features will be disabled until reboot.
The simple solution is to treate module load the same way the core
kernel is treated at boot. To hardcode the ftrace function modification
of converting calls to mcount into nops. This is done in init/main.c
there's no reason it could not be done in load_module(). This gives
a better control of the changes and doesn't tie the state of the
module to its notifiers as much. Ftrace is special, it needs to be
treated as such.
The reason this would work, is that the ftrace_module_init() would be
called while the module is in MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED, which is ignored
by the set_all_module_text_ro() call.

On x86 the allocation of irq descriptors may allocate interrupts which
are in the range of the GSI interrupts. That's wrong as those
interrupts are hardwired and we don't have the irq domain translation
like PPC. So one of these interrupts can be hooked up later to one of
the devices which are hard wired to it and the io_apic init code for
that particular interrupt line happily reuses that descriptor with a
completely different configuration so hell breaks lose.
Inside x86 we allocate dynamic interrupts from above nr_gsi_irqs,
except for a few usage sites which have not yet blown up in our face
for whatever reason. But for drivers which need an irq range, like the
GPIO drivers, we have no limit in place and we don't want to expose
such a detail to a driver.
To cure this introduce a function which an architecture can implement
to impose a lower bound on the dynamic interrupt allocations.
Implement it for x86 and set the lower bound to nr_gsi_irqs, which is
the end of the hardwired interrupt space, so all dynamic allocations
happen above.
That not only allows the GPIO driver to work sanely, it also protects
the bogus callsites of create_irq_nr() in hpet, uv, irq_remapping and
htirq code. They need to be cleaned up as well, but that's a separate
issue.

The asm-generic, big-endian version of zero_bytemask creates a mask of
bytes preceding the first zero-byte by left shifting ~0ul based on the
position of the first zero byte.
Unfortunately, if the first (top) byte is zero, the output of
prep_zero_mask has only the top bit set, resulting in undefined C
behaviour as we shift left by an amount equal to the width of the type.
As it happens, GCC doesn't manage to spot this through the call to fls(),
but the issue remains if architectures choose to implement their shift
instructions differently.
An example would be arch/arm/ (AArch32), where LSL Rd, Rn, #32 results
in Rd == 0x0, whilst on arch/arm64 (AArch64) LSL Xd, Xn, #64 results in
Xd == Xn.
Rather than check explicitly for the problematic shift, this patch adds
an extra shift by 1, replacing fls with __fls. Since zero_bytemask is
never called with a zero argument (has_zero() is used to check the data
first), we don't need to worry about calling __fls(0), which is
undefined.

Pull irq fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"A slighlty large fix for a subtle issue in the CPU hotplug code of
certain ARM SoCs, where the not yet online cpu needs to setup the cpu
local timer and needs to set the interrupt affinity to itself.
Setting interrupt affinity to a not online cpu is prohibited and
therefor the timer interrupt ends up on the wrong cpu, which leads to
nasty complications.
The SoC folks tried to hack around that in the SoC code in some more
than nasty ways. The proper solution is to have a way to enforce the
affinity setting to a not online cpu. The core patch to the genirq
code provides that facility and the follow up patches make use of it
in the GIC interrupt controller and the exynos timer driver.
The change to the core code has no implications to existing users,
except for the rename of the locked function and therefor the
necessary fixup in mips/cavium. Aside of that, no runtime impact is
possible, as none of the existing interrupt chips implements anything
which depends on the force argument of the irq_set_affinity()
callback"

The race was introduced while development of linux-3.11 by
e8437d7ecbc50198705331449367d401ebb3181f and
e9975fdec0138f1b2a85b9624e41660abd9865d4.
Originally it was found and reproduced on linux-3.12.15 and
linux-3.12.15-rt25, by sending 500 byte blocks with 115kbaud to the
target uart in a loop with 100 milliseconds delay.
In short:
1. The consumer flush_to_ldisc is on to remove the head tty_buffer.
2. The producer adds a number of bytes, so that a new tty_buffer must
be allocated and added by __tty_buffer_request_room.
3. The consumer removes the head tty_buffer element, without handling
newly committed data.
Detailed example:
* Initial buffer:
* Head, Tail -> 0: used=250; commit=250; read=240; next=NULL
* Consumer: ''flush_to_ldisc''
* consumed 10 Byte
* buffer:
* Head, Tail -> 0: used=250; commit=250; read=250; next=NULL
{{{
count = head->commit - head->read; // count = 0
if (!count) { // enter
// INTERRUPTED BY PRODUCER ->
if (head->next == NULL)
break;
buf->head = head->next;
tty_buffer_free(port, head);
continue;
}
}}}
* Producer: tty_insert_flip_... 10 bytes + tty_flip_buffer_push
* buffer:
* Head, Tail -> 0: used=250; commit=250; read=250; next=NULL
* added 6 bytes: head-element filled to maximum.
* buffer:
* Head, Tail -> 0: used=256; commit=250; read=250; next=NULL
* added 4 bytes: __tty_buffer_request_room is called
* buffer:
* Head -> 0: used=256; commit=256; read=250; next=1
* Tail -> 1: used=4; commit=0; read=250 next=NULL
* push (tty_flip_buffer_push)
* buffer:
* Head -> 0: used=256; commit=256; read=250; next=1
* Tail -> 1: used=4; commit=4; read=250 next=NULL
* Consumer
{{{
count = head->commit - head->read;
if (!count) {
// INTERRUPTED BY PRODUCER <-
if (head->next == NULL) // -> no break
break;
buf->head = head->next;
tty_buffer_free(port, head);
// ERROR: tty_buffer head freed -> 6 bytes lost
continue;
}
}}}
This patch reintroduces a spin_lock to protect this case. Perhaps later
a lock-less solution could be found.

(of_platform_populate+0x60/0x98)
This is because we're wrongly trying to populate resources that are not
yet available. It's perfectly valid to create irqchips dynamically, so
let's fix up the issue by resolving the interrupt resources when
platform_get_irq is called.
And then we also need to accept the fact that some irqdomains do not
exist that early on, and only get initialized later on. So we can
make the current WARN_ON into just into a pr_debug().
We still attempt to populate irq resources when we create the devices.
This allows current drivers which don't use platform_get_irq to continue
to function. Once all drivers are fixed, this code can be removed.

This fixes a regression on Keystone 2 platforms caused by patch
57303488cd37da58263e842de134dc65f7c626d5
"usb: dwc3: adapt dwc3 core to use Generic PHY Framework" which adds
optional support of generic phy in DWC3 core.
On Keystone 2 platforms the USB is not working now because
CONFIG_GENERIC_PHY isn't set and, as result, Generic PHY APIs stubs
return -ENOSYS always. The log shows:
dwc3 2690000.dwc3: failed to initialize core
dwc3: probe of 2690000.dwc3 failed with error -38
Hence, fix it by making NULL a valid phy reference in Generic PHY
APIs stubs in the same way as it was done by the patch
04c2facad8fee66c981a51852806d8923336f362 "drivers: phy: Make NULL

The Tegra124 clock DT binding currently provides 3 clocks that don't
actually exist; 2 for NAND and one for UART5/UARTE. Delete these. While
this is technically an incompatible DT ABI change, nothing could have
used these clock IDs for anything practical, since the HW doesn't exist.

File-private locks have been merged into Linux for v3.15, and *now*
people are commenting that the name and macro definitions for the new
file-private locks suck.
...and I can't even disagree. The names and command macros do suck.
We're going to have to live with these for a long time, so it's
important that we be happy with the names before we're stuck with them.
The consensus on the lists so far is that they should be rechristened as
"open file description locks".
The name isn't a big deal for the kernel, but the command macros are not
visually distinct enough from the traditional POSIX lock macros. The
glibc and documentation folks are recommending that we change them to
look like F_OFD_{GETLK|SETLK|SETLKW}. That lessens the chance that a
programmer will typo one of the commands wrong, and also makes it easier
to spot this difference when reading code.
This patch makes the following changes that I think are necessary before
v3.15 ships:
1) rename the command macros to their new names. These end up in the uapi
headers and so are part of the external-facing API. It turns out that
glibc doesn't actually use the fcntl.h uapi header, but it's hard to
be sure that something else won't. Changing it now is safest.
2) make the the /proc/locks output display these as type "OFDLCK"

On some newer laptops with a trackpoint the physical buttons for the
trackpoint have been removed to allow for a larger touchpad. On these
laptops the buttonpad has clearly marked areas on the top which are to be
used as trackpad buttons.
Users of the event device-node need to know about this, so that they can
properly interpret BTN_LEFT events as being a left / right / middle click
depending on where on the button pad the clicking finger is.
This commits adds a INPUT_PROP_TOPBUTTONPAD device property which drivers
for such buttonpads will use to signal to the user that this buttonpad not
only has the normal bottom button area, but also a top button area.

serio devices exposed via platform firmware interfaces such as ACPI may
provide additional identifying information of use to userspace.
We don't associate the serio devices with the firmware device (we don't
set it as parent), so there's no way for userspace to make use of this
information.
We cannot change the parent for serio devices instantiated though a
firmware interface as that would break suspend / resume ordering.
Therefore this patch adds a new firmware_id sysfs attribute so that
userspace can get a string from there with any additional identifying
information the firmware interface may provide.

David Vrabel identified a regression when using automatic NUMA balancing
under Xen whereby page table entries were getting corrupted due to the
use of native PTE operations. Quoting him
Xen PV guest page tables require that their entries use machine
addresses if the preset bit (_PAGE_PRESENT) is set, and (for
successful migration) non-present PTEs must use pseudo-physical
addresses. This is because on migration MFNs in present PTEs are
translated to PFNs (canonicalised) so they may be translated back
to the new MFN in the destination domain (uncanonicalised).
pte_mknonnuma(), pmd_mknonnuma(), pte_mknuma() and pmd_mknuma()
set and clear the _PAGE_PRESENT bit using pte_set_flags(),
pte_clear_flags(), etc.
In a Xen PV guest, these functions must translate MFNs to PFNs
when clearing _PAGE_PRESENT and translate PFNs to MFNs when setting
_PAGE_PRESENT.
His suggested fix converted p[te|md]_[set|clear]_flags to using
paravirt-friendly ops but this is overkill. He suggested an alternative
of using p[te|md]_modify in the NUMA page table operations but this is
does more work than necessary and would require looking up a VMA for
protections.
This patch modifies the NUMA page table operations to use paravirt
friendly operations to set/clear the flags of interest. Unfortunately
this will take a performance hit when updating the PTEs on
CONFIG_PARAVIRT but I do not see a way around it that does not break
Xen.

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
What happens while auth_enable=0 in that case is, that
ep->auth_hmacs is initialized to NULL in sctp_auth_init_hmacs()
when endpoint is being created.
After that point, if an admin switches over to auth_enable=1,
the machine can crash due to NULL pointer dereference during
reception of an INIT chunk. When we enter sctp_process_init()
via sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() in order to respond to an INIT chunk,
the INIT verification succeeds and while we walk and process
all INIT params via sctp_process_param() we find that
net->sctp.auth_enable is set, therefore do not fall through,
but invoke sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac() instead, and thus,
dereference what we have set to NULL during endpoint
initialization phase.
The fix is to make auth_enable immutable by caching its value
during endpoint initialization, so that its original value is
being carried along until destruction. The bug seems to originate
from the very first days.
Fix in joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

The AHCI spec allows implementations to issue commands in tag order
rather than FIFO order:
5.3.2.12 P:SelectCmd
HBA sets pSlotLoc = (pSlotLoc + 1) mod (CAP.NCS + 1)
or HBA selects the command to issue that has had the
PxCI bit set to '1' longer than any other command
pending to be issued.
The result is that commands posted sequentially (time-wise) may play out
of sequence when issued by hardware.
This behavior has likely been hidden by drives that arrange for commands
to complete in issue order. However, it appears recent drives (two from
different vendors that we have found so far) inflict out-of-order
completions as a matter of course. So, we need to take care to maintain
ordered submission, otherwise we risk triggering a drive to fall out of
sequential-io automation and back to random-io processing, which incurs
large latency and degrades throughput.
This issue was found in simple benchmarks where QD=2 seq-write
performance was 30-50% *greater* than QD=32 seq-write performance.
Tagging for -stable and making the change globally since it has a low
risk-to-reward ratio. Also, word is that recent versions of an unnamed
OS also does it this way now. So, drives in the field are already
experienced with this tag ordering scheme.

Drivers that call regulator_get_optional are tolerant to the absence of
that regulator. By modifying the value returned from the stub function
to match that seen when a regulator isn't present, callers can wrap the
regulator logic with an IS_ERR based conditional even if they happen to
call regulator_is_supported_voltage. This improves efficiency as well
as eliminates the possibility for a very subtle bug.

This is leftover stuff from my previous doc round which I kinda wanted
to do but didn't yet due to rebase hell.
The modeset helpers and the probing helpers a independent and e.g.
i915 uses the probing stuff but has its own modeset infrastructure. It
hence makes to split this up. While at it add a DOC: comment for the
probing libraray.
It would be rather neat to pull some of the DocBook documenting these
two helpers into in-line DOC: comments. But unfortunately kerneldoc
doesn't support markdown or something similar to make nice-looking
documentation, so the current state is better.

The current implementation of irq_set_affinity() refuses rightfully to
route an interrupt to an offline cpu.
But there is a special case, where this is actually desired. Some of
the ARM SoCs have per cpu timers which require setting the affinity
during cpu startup where the cpu is not yet in the online mask.
If we can't do that, then the local timer interrupt for the about to
become online cpu is routed to some random online cpu.
The developers of the affected machines tried to work around that
issue, but that results in a massive mess in that timer code.
We have a yet unused argument in the set_affinity callbacks of the irq
chips, which I added back then for a similar reason. It was never
required so it got not used. But I'm happy that I never removed it.
That allows us to implement a sane handling of the above scenario. So
the affected SoC drivers can add the required force handling to their
interrupt chip, switch the timer code to irq_force_affinity() and
things just work.
This does not affect any existing user of irq_set_affinity().
Tagged for stable to allow a simple fix of the affected SoC clock
event drivers.

Merge ipmi fixes from Corey Minyard:
"Things collected since last kernel release.
Some of these are pretty important. The first three are bug fixes.
The next two are to hopefully make everyone happy about allowing
ACPI to be on all the time and not have IPMI have an effect on the
system when not in use. The last is a little cleanup"
* emailed patches from Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com>:
ipmi: boolify some things
ipmi: Turn off all activity on an idle ipmi interface
ipmi: Turn off default probing of interfaces
ipmi: Reset the KCS timeout when starting error recovery
ipmi: Fix a race restarting the timer
Char: ipmi_bt_sm, fix infinite loop

The IPMI driver would wake up periodically looking for events and
watchdog pretimeouts. If there is nothing waiting for these events,
it's really kind of pointless to be checking for them. So modify the
driver so the message handler can pass down if it needs the lower layer
to be waiting for these. Modify the system interface lower layer to
turn off all timer and thread activity if the upper layer doesn't need
anything and it is not currently handling messages. And modify the
message handler to not restart the timer if its timer is not needed.
The timers and kthread will still be enabled if:
- the SI interface is handling a message.
- a user has enabled watching for events.
- the IPMI watchdog timer is in use (since it uses pretimeouts).
- the message handler is waiting on a remote response.
- a user has registered to receive commands.
This mostly affects interfaces without interrupts. Interfaces with
interrupts already don't use CPU in the system interface when the
interface is idle.
