Several architectures (e.g. x86, MIPS, Blackfin) have asm/reboot.h and
asm/time.h header files, which are not included in linux/reboot.h and
linux/time.h headers. This lead to generation of false positive errors.

Similar to ARM, AArch64 is generating $x and $d syms... which isn't
terribly helpful when looking at %pF output and the like. Filter those
out in kallsyms, modpost and when looking at module symbols.
Seems simplest since none of these check EM_ARM anyway, to just add it
to the strchr used, rather than trying to make things overly
complicated.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
"This is quite late but these need to be backported anyway.
This is the fix for a long-standing cpuset bug which existed from
2009. cpuset makes use of PF_SPREAD_{PAGE|SLAB} flags to modify the
task's memory allocation behavior according to the settings of the
cpuset it belongs to; unfortunately, when those flags have to be
changed, cpuset did so directly even whlie the target task is running,
which is obviously racy as task->flags may be modified by the task
itself at any time. This obscure bug manifested as corrupt
PF_USED_MATH flag leading to a weird crash.
The bug is fixed by moving the flag to task->atomic_flags. The first
two are prepatory ones to help defining atomic_flags accessors and the
third one is the actual fix"

Since module-init-tools (gzip) and kmod (gzip and xz) support compressed
modules, it could be useful to include a support for compressing modules
right after having them installed. Doing this in kbuild instead of per
distro can permit to make this kind of usage more generic.
This patch add a Kconfig entry to "Enable loadable module support" menu
and let you choose to compress using gzip (default) or xz.
Both gzip and xz does not used any extra -[1-9] option since Andi Kleen
and Rusty Russell prove no gain is made using them. gzip is called with -n
argument to avoid storing original filename inside compressed file, that
way we can save some more bytes.
On a v3.16 kernel, 'make allmodconfig' generated 4680 modules for a
total of 378MB (no strip, no sign, no compress), the following table
shows observed disk space gain based on the allmodconfig .config :
| time |
+-------------+-----------------+
| manual .ko | make | size | percent
| compression | modules_install | | gain
+-------------+-----------------+------+--------
- | | 18.61s | 378M |
GZIP | 3m16s | 3m37s | 102M | 73.41%
XZ | 5m22s | 5m39s | 77M | 79.83%
The gain for restricted environnement seems to be interesting while
uncompress can be time consuming but happens only while loading a module,
that is generally done only once.
This is fully compatible with signed modules while the signed module is
compressed. module-init-tools or kmod handles decompression
and provide to other layer the uncompressed but signed payload.

Avoid the variable length array (vla), just use PATH_MAX instead.

Internally used symbols of modpost don't need to be externally visible;
make them static. Also constify the string arrays so they resist in the
r/o section instead of being runtime writable.

Update of analyze_suspend.py to v3.0
New features include back-2-back suspend testing, device filters to
reduce the html size, the inclusion of device_prepare and device_complete
callbacks, a usb topography list, and the ability to control USB
device autosuspend.
UI upgrades include a device detail window and mini-timeline, the addition
of a suspend_prepare and resume_complete phase to the timeline which includes
the associated device callbacks, automatic highlight of related callbacks,
and general color and name changes for better reability.
The new version relies on two trace point patches that are already in
the kernel:
enable_trace_events_suspend_resume.patch
enable_trace_events_device_pm_callback.patch
It has legacy support for older kernels without these trace events, but
when available the tool processes the ftrace output alone (dmesg has
been deprecated as a tool input, and is only gathered for convenience).

allnoconfig disable options behind EMBEDDED and EXPERT") in 3.15-rc1,
"make allnoconfig" disables every possible config option.
However, a few configuration options (CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE,
OPTIMIZE_INLINING) produce a smaller kernel when turned on, and a few
choices exist (compression, highmem, allocator) for which a non-default
option produces a smaller kernel.
Add a "tinyconfig" option, which starts from allnoconfig and then sets
these options to configure the tiniest possible kernel. This provides a
better baseline for embedded systems or efforts to reduce kernel size.

This patch series does not do kernel signature verification yet. I plan
to post another patch series for that. Now distributions are already
signing PE/COFF bzImage with PKCS7 signature I plan to parse and verify
those signatures.
Primary goal of this patchset is to prepare groundwork so that kernel
image can be signed and signatures be verified during kexec load. This
should help with two things.
- It should allow kexec/kdump on secureboot enabled machines.
- In general it can help even without secureboot. By being able to verify
kernel image signature in kexec, it should help with avoiding module
signing restrictions. Matthew Garret showed how to boot into a custom
kernel, modify first kernel's memory and then jump back to old kernel and
bypass any policy one wants to.
This patch (of 15):
Kexec wants to use bin2c and it wants to use it really early in the build
process. See arch/x86/purgatory/ code in later patches.
So move bin2c in scripts/basic so that it can be built very early and
be usable by arch/x86/purgatory/

Since the kernel now has a COMPAT_SYSCALL infrastructure via commit
468366138850 ("COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE: infrastructure"), add the
corresponding regex for generating compat_sys_* symbols in the tags
files (similar to sys_*).

Commit c353acba ("kbuild: make: fix if_changed when command contains
backslashes") attempted to handle backslashes in *.cmd files, but it
only handled double backslashes for some reason. Changing make-cmd to also
handle single backslashes fixes rebuilds with dash, but it breaks bash
again. The reason is that the two shells disagree about the
interpretation of backslash sequences in the echo builtin. The way out
of this is to print the command with printf '%s\n'. While at it,
document what the individual parts of make-cmd do and why.

Using uninitialized_var reports a false positive for "Missing blank line
after declarations".
Fix it by adding uninitialized_var to the $declaration_macros exceptions
list.
Move the macro list after $Type is declared.
Add optional prefixes to DECLARE_<FOO> and DEFINE_<BAR>
macro declarations to allow forms like:
MLX4_DECLARE_DOORBELL_LOCK

Checkpatch already complains when people break up quoted strings but
it's still pretty common. One mistake that people often make is they
leave out the space character between the two strings.
This check adds around 450 new warnings and has a low rate of false
positives.

Commit 89da401f6cff ("checkpatch: improve "no space after cast" test")
in -next improved the cast test for non pointer types, but also
introduced false positives for some types of static inlines.
Add a test for an open brace to the exclusions to avoid these false
positives.

Using --file mode can give false positives with MISSING_BREAK
fall-through warnings on simple but long multiple consecutive case
statements.
Look for all lines before a case statement for a switch or a statement
when using --file mode.

c90 section "6.7.2 Type Specifiers" says:
"type specifiers may occur in any order"
That means that:
short int is the same as int short
unsigned short int is the same as int unsigned short
etc...
checkpatch currently parses only a subset of these allowed types.
For instance: "unsigned short" and "signed short" are found by
checkpatch as a specific type, but none of the or "int short" or "int
signed short" variants are found.
Add another table for the "kernel style misordered" variants.
Add this misordered table to the findable types.
Warn when the misordered style is used.
This improves the "Missing a blank line after declarations" test as it
depends on the correct parsing of the $Declare variable which looks for
"$Type $Ident;" (ie: declarations like "int foo;").

short int is one of the 6.7.2 c90 types.
Find it appropriately.
This fixes a defect in checkpatch where it suggests that a line break
after declaration is required using an input like:
int foo;
short int bar;
Without this change, it warns on the short int line.
