Add boot code for metag. Due to the multi-threaded nature of Meta it is
not uncommon for an RTOS or bare metal application to be started on
other hardware threads by the bootloader. Since there is a single MMU
switch which affects all threads, the MMU is traditionally configured by
the bootloader prior to starting Linux. The bootloader passes a
structure to Linux which among other things contains information about
memory regions which have been mapped. Linux then assumes control of the
local heap memory region.
A kernel arguments string pointer or a flattened device tree pointer can
be provided in the third argument.

Add a couple of header files containing core architecture constants.
The first (<asm/metag_isa.h>) contains some constants relating to the
instruction set, such as values to give to the CACHEW and CACHER
instructions.
The second (<asm/metag_regs.h>) contains constants for the core register
units directly accessible to various instructions, and for the
registers, fields, and bits in those units. The main units described are
the control unit (CT.*), the trigger unit (TR.*), and the run-time trace
unit (TT.*).

On 64 bit architectures with no efficient unaligned access, padding and
explicit alignment must be added in various places to prevent unaligned
64bit accesses (such as taskstats and trace ring buffer).
However this also needs to apply to 32 bit architectures with 64 bit
accesses requiring alignment such as metag.
This is solved by adding a new Kconfig symbol HAVE_64BIT_ALIGNED_ACCESS
which defaults to 64BIT && !HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, and can be
explicitly selected by METAG and any other relevant architectures. This
can be used in various places to determine whether 64bit alignment is
required.

There was a serious problem in samsung-laptop that its platform driver is
designed to run under BIOS and running under EFI can cause the machine to
become bricked or can cause Machine Check Exceptions.
Discussion about this problem:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47121
The patches to fix this problem:

samsung-laptop: Disable on EFI hardware
e0094244e41c4d0c7ad69920681972fc45d8ce34
Unfortunately this problem comes back again if users specify "noefi" option.
This parameter clears EFI_BOOT and that driver continues to run even if running
under EFI. Refer to the document, this parameter should clear
EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES instead.

Petr says: "
I've analysed the bug and I think that xen_iret() cannot cope with
mangled DS, in this case zeroed out (null selector/descriptor) by either
xen_failsafe_callback() or RESTORE_REGS because the corresponding LDT
entry was invalidated by the reproducer. "
Jan took a look at the preliminary patch and came up a fix that solves
this problem:
"This code gets called after all registers other than those handled by
IRET got already restored, hence a null selector in %ds or a non-null
one that got loaded from a code or read-only data descriptor would
cause a kernel mode fault (with the potential of crashing the kernel
as a whole, if panic_on_oops is set)."
The way to fix this is to realize that the we can only relay on the
registers that IRET restores. The two that are guaranteed are the
%cs and %ss as they are always fixed GDT selectors. Also they are
inaccessible from user mode - so they cannot be altered. This is
the approach taken in this patch.
Another alternative option suggested by Jan would be to relay on
the subtle realization that using the %ebp or %esp relative references uses
the %ss segment. In which case we could switch from using %eax to %ebp and
would not need the %ss over-rides. That would also require one extra
instruction to compensate for the one place where the register is used
as scaled index. However Andrew pointed out that is too subtle and if
further work was to be done in this code-path it could escape folks attention
and lead to accidents.

Mostly mirrors the s390 logic, as unlike x86 we don't need the
SetPageReferenced() bits.
On sparc64 we also lack a user/privileged bit in the huge PMDs.
In order to make this work for THP and non-THP builds, some header
file adjustments were necessary. Namely, provide the PMD_HUGE_* bit
defines and the pmd_large() inline unconditionally rather than
protected by TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE.

A user reported the following oops when a backup process reads
/proc/kcore:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffbb00ff33b000
IP: [<ffffffff8103157e>] kern_addr_valid+0xbe/0x110

[<ffffffff811517f3>] sys_read+0x53/0xa0
[<ffffffff81449692>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
Investigation determined that the bug triggered when reading
system RAM at the 4G mark. On this system, that was the first
address using 1G pages for the virt->phys direct mapping so the
PUD is pointing to a physical address, not a PMD page.
The problem is that the page table walker in kern_addr_valid() is
not checking pud_large() and treats the physical address as if
it was a PMD. If it happens to look like pmd_none then it'll
silently fail, probably returning zeros instead of real data. If
the data happens to look like a present PMD though, it will be
walked resulting in the oops above.
This patch adds the necessary pud_large() check.
Unfortunately the problem was not readily reproducible and now
they are running the backup program without accessing
/proc/kcore so the patch has not been validated but I think it
makes sense.

When a HP ProLiant DL980 G7 Server boots a regular kernel,
there will be intermittent lost interrupts which could
result in a hang or (in extreme cases) data loss.
The reason is that this system only supports x2apic physical
mode, while the kernel boots with a logical-cluster default
setting.
This bug can be worked around by specifying the "x2apic_phys" or
"nox2apic" boot option, but we want to handle this system
without requiring manual workarounds.
The BIOS sets ACPI_FADT_APIC_PHYSICAL in FADT table.
As all apicids are smaller than 255, BIOS need to pass the
control to the OS with xapic mode, according to x2apic-spec,
chapter 2.9.
Current code handle x2apic when BIOS pass with xapic mode
enabled:
When user specifies x2apic_phys, or FADT indicates PHYSICAL:
1. During madt oem check, apic driver is set with xapic logical
or xapic phys driver at first.
2. enable_IR_x2apic() will enable x2apic_mode.
3. if user specifies x2apic_phys on the boot line, x2apic_phys_probe()
will install the correct x2apic phys driver and use x2apic phys mode.
Otherwise it will skip the driver will let x2apic_cluster_probe to
take over to install x2apic cluster driver (wrong one) even though FADT
indicates PHYSICAL, because x2apic_phys_probe does not check
FADT PHYSICAL.
Add checking x2apic_fadt_phys in x2apic_phys_probe() to fix the
problem.

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
"I was going to hold these off until v3.8 was out, and send them with a
stable tag, but as everyone else is pushing much bigger fixes which
Linus is accepting, let's save people from the hastle of having to
patch v3.8 back into working or use a stable kernel.
Looking at the diffstat, this really is high value for its size; this
is miniscule compared to how the -rc6 to tip diffstat currently looks.
So, four patches in this set:
- Punit Agrawal reports that the kernel no longer boots on MPCore due
to a new assumption made in the GIC code which isn't true of
earlier GIC designs. This is the biggest change in this set.
- Punit's boot log also revealed a bunch of WARN_ON() dumps caused by
the DT-ification of the GIC support without fixing up non-DT
Realview - which now sees a greater number of interrupts than it
did before.
- A fix for the DMA coherent code from Marek which uses the wrong
check for atomic allocations; this can result in spinlock lockups
or other nasty effects.
- A fix from Will, which will affect all Android based platforms if
not applied (which use the 2G:2G VM split) - this causes
particularly 'make' to misbehave unless this bug is fixed."

We have received multiple reports of mmap failures when running with a
2:2 vm split. These manifest as either -EINVAL with a non page-aligned
address (ending 0xaaa) or a SEGV, depending on the application. The
issue is commonly observed in children of make, which appears to use
bottom-up mmap (assumedly because it changes the stack rlimit).
Further investigation reveals that this regression was triggered by
394ef6403abc ("mm: use vm_unmapped_area() on arm architecture"), whereby
TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is no longer page-aligned for bottom-up mmap, causing
get_unmapped_area to choke on misaligned addressed.
This patch fixes the problem by defining TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE in terms of
TASK_SIZE and explicitly aligns the result to 16M, matching the other
end of the heap.

This happens because the DMA allocation code is not respecting atomic
allocations correctly.
GFP flags should not be tested for GFP_ATOMIC to determine if an
atomic allocation is being requested. GFP_ATOMIC is not a flag but
a value. The GFP bitmask flags are all prefixed with __GFP_.
The rest of the kernel tests for __GFP_WAIT not being set to indicate
an atomic allocation. We need to do the same.

Some early GIC implementations return zero for the first distributor
CPU routing register. This means we can't rely on that telling us
which CPU interface we're connected to. We know that these platforms
implement PPIs for IRQs 29-31 - but we shouldn't assume that these
will always be populated.
So, instead, scan for a non-zero CPU routing register in the first
32 IRQs and use that as our CPU mask.

Without this patch, it is trivial to determine kernel page
mappings by examining the error code reported to dmesg[1].
Instead, declare the entire kernel memory space as a violation
of a present page.
Additionally, since show_unhandled_signals is enabled by
default, switch branch hinting to the more realistic
expectation, and unobfuscate the setting of the PF_PROT bit to
improve readability.

As of commit fea82210 ("m68k: switch to saner kernel_execve() semantics")
the non-mmu m68k targets have trapped on booting. The execing of /bin/init
causes the exec path to try and return through a 0x0 return address - thus
trapping or otherwise hanging or crashing.
The problem isn't in the exec path as such though, but rather in the
m68knommu start_thread() macro. It is trying to clear the a6 register that
it assumes is part of a struct switch_stack below the thread registers on
our stack. But that is not what the stack frames look like when this is run.
So it ends up corrupting our call stack and zeroing out a function return
address that is sitting there.
The clearing of a6 was introduced many years ago in commit 7bf9a37d8d
("m68knommu: force stack alignment on ColdFire"). It used to work because
the kernel init exec code path had a short cut back to the exception return
code, and it didn't need to return through the calls on the stack.

It happens because in randconfigs where CONFIG_SYSFS is not set,
the whole sysfs-interface to L3 cache index disabling is
remaining unused and gcc correctly warns about it. Make it
optional, depending on CONFIG_SYSFS too, as is the case with
other sysfs-related machinery in this file.

Function tracing is currently broken for all 32 bit MIPS platforms.
When tracing is enabled, the kernel immediately hangs on boot.
This is a result of commit b732d439cb43336cd6d7e804ecb2c81193ef63b0
that changes the kernel/trace/Kconfig file so that is no longer
forces FRAME_POINTER when FUNCTION_TRACING is enabled.
MIPS frame pointers are generally considered to be useless because
they cannot be used to unwind the stack. Unfortunately the MIPS
function tracing code has bugs that are masked by the use of frame
pointers. This commit fixes the bugs so that MIPS frame pointers
don't need to be enabled.
The bugs are a result of the odd calling sequence used to call the trace
routine. This calling sequence is inserted into every traceable function
when the tracing CONFIG option is enabled. This sequence is generated
for 32bit MIPS platforms by the compiler via the "-pg" flag.
Part of the sequence is "addiu sp,sp,-8" in the delay slot after every
call to the trace routine "_mcount" (some legacy thing where 2 arguments
used to be pushed on the stack). The _mcount routine is expected to
adjust the sp by +8 before returning. So when not disabled, the original
jalr and addiu will be there, so _mcount has to adjust sp.
The problem is that when tracing is disabled for a function, the
"jalr _mcount" instruction is replaced with a nop, but the
"addiu sp,sp,-8" is still executed and the stack pointer is left
trashed. When frame pointers are enabled the problem is masked
because any access to the stack is done through the frame
pointer and the stack pointer is restored from the frame pointer when
the function returns.
This patch writes two nops starting at the address of the "jalr _mcount"
instruction whenever tracing is disabled. This means that the
"addiu sp,sp.-8" will be converted to a nop along with the "jalr". When
disabled, there will be two nops.
This is SMP safe because the first time this happens is during
ftrace_init() which is before any other processor has been started.
Subsequent calls to enable/disable tracing when other CPUs ARE running
will still be safe because the enable will only change the first nop
to a "jalr" and the disable, while writing 2 nops, will only be changing
the "jalr". This patch also stops using stop_machine() to call the
tracer enable/disable routines and calls them directly because the
routines are SMP safe.
When the kernel first boots we have to be able to handle the gcc
generated jalr, addui sequence until ftrace_init gets a chance to run
and change the sequence. At this point mcount just adjusts the stack
and returns. When ftrace_init runs, we convert the jalr/addui to nops.
Then whenever tracing is enabled we convert the first nop to a "jalr
mcount+8". The mcount+8 entry point skips the stack adjust.

Commit d3ce88431892 "MIPS: Fix modpost error in modules attepting to use

file to a function in ioremap.c. But ioremap.c is only compiled for MIPS
32, and not for MIPS 64.
When compiling for my yeeloong2, which supposedly supports hibernation,
which compiles kernel/power/snapshot.c which calls virt_addr_valid(), I
got this error:
