Mixer driver is selected by CONFIG_DRM_EXYNOS_HDMI option. Since Exynos5433
HDMI does not require Mixer. There will be separate options to select Mixer
and HDMI. Adding new option to defconfig before Kconfig will allow to keep
bisectability.

Most distributions end up enabling SWIOTLB already with 32-bit
kernels due to the combination of CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST|CONFIG_XEN=y
as those end up requiring the SWIOTLB.
However for those that are not interested in virtualization and
run in 32-bit they will discover that: "32-bit PAE 4.2.0 kernel
(no IOMMU code) would hang when writing to my USB disk. The kernel
spews million(-ish messages per sec) to syslog, effectively
"hanging" userspace with my kernel.
Oct 2 14:33:06 voodoochild kernel: [ 223.287447] nommu_map_sg:
overflow 25dcac000+1024 of device mask ffffffff

Oct 2 14:33:06 voodoochild kernel: [ 223.287449] nommu_map_sg:

... etc ..."
Enabling it makes the problem go away.
N.B. With a6dfa128ce5c414ab46b1d690f7a1b8decb8526d
"config: Enable NEED_DMA_MAP_STATE by default when SWIOTLB is selected"
we also have the important part of the SG macros enabled to make this
work properly - in case anybody wants to backport this patch.

"This patch series fixes up a couple of architecture issues where
strscpy wasn't configured correctly (missing on h8300, duplicating
local and asm-generic copies on powerpc and tile).
It also adds a use of zero_bytemask() to the final store for strscpy
to avoid writing uninitialized data to the destination. However, to
make this work we had to add support for zero_bytemask() to the two
architectures that didn't have it (alpha and tile), because they were
providing their own local copies, but didn't provide the
zero_bytemask() that was previously only required when building with
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS"

one preexisting use in arch/tile that predates the generic version.

can start using it. - Linus ]

When booting a kernel without an initrd, the kernel reports that it
moves -1 bytes worth, having gone through the motions with initrd_start
equal to initrd_end:
Moving initrd from [4080000000-407fffffff] to [9fff49000-9fff48fff]
Prevent this by bailing out early when the initrd size is zero (i.e. we
have no initrd), avoiding the confusing message and other associated
work.

With commit 633d6f17cd91ad5bf2370265946f716e42d388c6 (x86/xen: prepare
p2m list for memory hotplug) the P2M may be sized to accomdate a much
larger amount of memory than the domain currently has.
When saving a domain, the toolstack must scan all the P2M looking for
populated pages. This results in a performance regression due to the
unnecessary scanning.
Instead of reporting (via shared_info) the maximum possible size of
the P2M, hint at the last PFN which might be populated. This hint is
increased as new leaves are added to the P2M (in the expectation that
they will be used for populated entries).

This is the arm64 portion of commit 45cac65b0fcd ("readahead: fault
retry breaks mmap file read random detection"), which was absent from
the initial port and has since gone unnoticed. The original commit says:
> .fault now can retry. The retry can break state machine of .fault. In
> filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased. In the second
> try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased. And
> these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access.
>
> Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once. In the second try, skip
> ra->mmap_miss decreasing. The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.
With this change, Mark reports that:
> Random read improves by 250%, sequential read improves by 40%, and
> random write by 400% to an eMMC device with dm crypto wrapped around it.

Some GCC versions (e.g. 4.8.3) can incorrectly inline a function with
MIPS32 instructions into another function with MIPS16 code [1], causing
the assembler to genereate incorrect binary code or fail right away
complaining about unrecognized opcode.
In the case of __arch_swab{16,32}, when inlined by the compiler with
flags `-mips32r2 -mips16 -Os', the assembler can fail with the following
error.
{standard input}:79: Error: unrecognized opcode `wsbh $2,$2'
For performance concerns and to workaround the issue already existing in
older compilers, just ignore these 2 functions when compiling with
mips16 enabled.

For at least GCC 4.8.3, adding nomips16 function attribute still cannot
prevent it from being inlined in mips16 context. So revert it first in
preparation for a better workaround.

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.

The MIPS syscall handler code used to return -ENOSYS on invalid
syscalls. Whilst this is expected, it caused problems for seccomp
filters because the said filters never had the change to run since
the code returned -ENOSYS before triggering them. This caused
problems on the chromium testsuite for filters looking for invalid
syscalls. This has now changed and the seccomp filters are always
run even if the syscall is invalid. We return -ENOSYS once we
return from the seccomp filters. Moreover, similar codepaths have
been merged in the process which simplifies somewhat the overall
syscall code.

During development it was found that a number of builds would panic
during the kernel init process, more specifically in 'delayed_fput()'.
The panic showed the kernel trying to access a memory address of
'0xb7fdc00' while traversing the 'delayed_fput_list' structure.
Comparing this memory address to the value of the pointer used on
builds that did not panic confirmed that the pointer on crashing
builds must have been corrupted at some stage earlier in the init
process.
By traversing the list earlier and earlier in the code it was found
that 'plat_mem_setup()' was responsible for corrupting the list.
Specifically the line:
memory = cvmx_bootmem_phy_alloc(mem_alloc_size,
__pa_symbol(&__init_end), -1,
0x100000,
CVMX_BOOTMEM_FLAG_NO_LOCKING);
Which would eventually call:
cvmx_bootmem_phy_set_size(new_ent_addr,
cvmx_bootmem_phy_get_size
(ent_addr) -
(desired_min_addr -
ent_addr));
Where 'new_ent_addr'=0x4800000 (the address of 'delayed_fput_list')
and the second argument (size)=0xb7fdc00 (the address causing the
kernel panic). The job of this part of 'plat_mem_setup()' is to
allocate chunks of memory for the kernel to use. At the start of
each chunk of memory the size of the chunk is written, hence the
value 0xb7fdc00 is written onto memory at 0x4800000, therefore the
kernel panics when it goes back to access 'delayed_fput_list' later
on in the initialisation process.
On builds that were not crashing it was found that the compiler had
placed 'delayed_fput_list' at 0x4800008, meaning it wasn't corrupted
(but something else in memory was overwritten).
As can be seen in the first function call above the code begins to
allocate chunks of memory beginning from the symbol '__init_end'.
The MIPS linker script (vmlinux.lds.S) however defines the .bss
section to begin after '__init_end'. Therefore memory within the
.bss section is allocated to the kernel to use (System.map shows
'delayed_fput_list' and other kernel structures to be in .bss).
To stop the kernel panic (and the .bss section being corrupted)
memory should begin being allocated from the symbol '_end'.

Commit 1a3d59579b9f ("MIPS: Tidy up FPU context switching") removed FP
context saving from the asm-written resume function in favour of reusing
existing code to perform the same task. However it only removed the FP
context saving code from the r4k_switch.S implementation of resume.
Remove it from the r2300_switch.S implementation too in order to prevent
attempting to save the FP context twice, which would likely lead to an
exception from the second save because the FPU had already been disabled
by the first save.
This patch has only been build tested, using rbtx49xx_defconfig.

Octeon uses its own implementation in octeon_switch.S, so remove FP
context saving there too in order to prevent attempting to save context
twice. That formerly led to an exception from the second save as follows
because the FPU had already been disabled by the first save:

This is because when using function graph tracer, if the traced
function return value is in multi regs ([x0-x7]), return_to_handler
may corrupt them. So in return_to_handler, the parameter regs should

The entire bpf_jit_asm.S is written in noreorder mode because "we know
better" according to a comment. This also prevented the assembler from
throwing in the required NOPs for MIPS I processors which have no
load-use interlock, thus the load's consumer might end up using the
old value of the register from prior to the load.
Fixed by putting the assembler in reorder mode for just the affected
load instructions. This is not enough for gas to actually try to be
clever by looking at the next instruction and inserting a nop only
when needed but as the comment said "we know better", so getting gas
to unconditionally emit a NOP is just right in this case and prevents
adding further ifdefery.

On x32, gcc predefines __x86_64__ but long is only 32-bit. Use
__ILP32__ to distinguish x32.
Fixes this compiler error in perf:

The original bug is a page fault crash that sometimes happens
on big machines when preparing ELF headers:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc90613fc9000
IP: [<ffffffff8103d645>] prepare_elf64_ram_headers_callback+0x165/0x260
The bug is caused by us under-counting the number of memory ranges
and subsequently not allocating enough ELF header space for them.
The bug is typically masked on smaller systems, because the ELF header
allocation is rounded up to the next page.
This patch modifies the code in fill_up_crash_elf_data() by using
walk_system_ram_res() instead of walk_system_ram_range() to correctly
count the max number of crash memory ranges. That's because the
walk_system_ram_range() filters out small memory regions that
reside in the same page, but walk_system_ram_res() does not.
Here's how I found the bug:
After tracing prepare_elf64_headers() and prepare_elf64_ram_headers_callback(),
the code uses walk_system_ram_res() to fill-in crash memory regions information
to the program header, so it counts those small memory regions that
reside in a page area.
But, when the kernel was using walk_system_ram_range() in
fill_up_crash_elf_data() to count the number of crash memory regions,
it filters out small regions.
I printed those small memory regions, for example:
kexec: Get nr_ram ranges. vaddr=0xffff880077592258 paddr=0x77592258, sz=0xdc0
Based on the code in walk_system_ram_range(), this memory region
will be filtered out:
pfn = (0x77592258 + 0x1000 - 1) >> 12 = 0x77593
end_pfn = (0x77592258 + 0xfc0 -1 + 1) >> 12 = 0x77593
end_pfn - pfn = 0x77593 - 0x77593 = 0 <=== if (end_pfn > pfn) is FALSE
So, the max_nr_ranges that's counted by the kernel doesn't include
small memory regions - causing us to under-allocate the required space.
That causes the page fault crash that happens in a later code path
when preparing ELF headers.
This bug is not easy to reproduce on small machines that have few
CPUs, because the allocated page aligned ELF buffer has more free
space to cover those small memory regions' PT_LOAD headers.

Pull KVM fixes from Paolo Bonzini:
"(Relatively) a lot of reverts, mostly.
Bugs have trickled in for a new feature in 4.2 (MTRR support in
guests) so I'm reverting it all; let's not make this -rc period busier
for KVM than it's been so far. This covers the four reverts from me.
The fifth patch is being reverted because Radim found a bug in the
implementation of stable scheduler clock, *but* also managed to
implement the feature entirely without hypervisor support. So instead
of fixing the hypervisor side we can remove it completely; 4.4 will
get the new implementation"

6910fa1 ("arm64: enable PTE type bit in the mask for pte_modify") fixes
a problem whereby a large block of PROT_NONE mapped memory is
incorrectly mapped as block descriptors when mprotect is called.
Unfortunately, a subtle bug was introduced by this fix to the THP logic.
If one mmaps a large block of memory, then faults it such that it is
collapsed into THPs; resulting calls to mprotect on this area of memory
will lead to incorrect table descriptors being written instead of block
descriptors. This is because pmd_modify calls pte_modify which is now
allowed to modify the type of the page table entry.
This patch reverts commit 6910fa16dbe142f6a0fd0fd7c249f9883ff7fc8a, and
fixes the problem it was trying to address by adjusting PAGE_NONE to
represent a table entry. Thus no change in pte type is required when
moving from PROT_NONE to a different protection.

The cpu feature flags are not ever going to change, so warning
everytime can cause a lot of kernel log spam
(in our case more than 10GB/hour).
The warning seems to only occur when nested virtualization is
enabled, so it's probably triggered by a KVM bug. This is a
sensible and safe change anyway, and the KVM bug fix might not
be suitable for stable releases anyway.

This reverts commit 3c2e7f7de3240216042b61073803b61b9b3cfb22.
Initializing the mapping from MTRR to PAT values was reported to
fail nondeterministically, and it also caused extremely slow boot
(due to caching getting disabled---bug 103321) with assigned devices.
