Providing an enable method gives L2 cache controllers a chance to do
special handling at enable time. This allows us to remove a hack in
l2x0_unlock() for Marvell Aurora L2 caches.

Back in the mists of time, someone decided that it would be a good idea
to group like functions together - so all the save functions in one
place, all the resume functions in another, all the OF parsing functions
some place else.
This makes it difficult to get an overview on what a particular
implementation is doing - grouping an implementations specific functions
together makes more sense, because you can see what it's doing without
the clutter of other implementations.
Organise it according to implementation.

Rather than having a boolean and other tricks to disable some bits of
l2x0_init(), split this function into two parts: a common part shared
between OF and non-OF, and the non-OF part.
The common part can take a block of function pointers, and the cache
ID (to cope with Aurora's DT specified ID.) Eliminate the redundant
setting of l2x0_base in the OF case, moving it to the non-OF init
function.
This allows us to localise the OF-specific initialisation handling
from the non-OF handling.

cache_wait_way() is actually used to wait for a particular mask to
report clear; it's not really got much to do with cache ways at all.
Indeed, it gets used to wait for the C bit to clear on older caches.
Rename this with a more generic function name which better reflects
its purpose: l2c_wait_mask().

Provide a generic helper function for way based operations. These are
always background operations, and thus have to be waited for before a
new operation is commenced. This helper extracts that requirement from
several locations in the code.

Spear calls outer_flush_all() from it's SMP bringup function. This
is potentially dangerous as the L2C set/way operations which implement
this don't take kindly to concurrent operations. Besides, there's
better solutions to this, as implemented on other platforms.

outer_disable() is defined to safely turn the L2 cache off without data
loss: this means that outer_flush_all() should never be called unless
you need to implement some special L2 cache disabling, and even then
only from your replacement L2 cache disable function.

otherwise trip and cause subsequent fatal EEH error"

The attached change significantly improves the performance of the LWS-CAS code
in syscall.S.
This allows a number of packages to build (e.g., zeromq3, gtest and libxs)
that previously failed because slow LWS-CAS performance under contention. In
particular, interrupts taken while the lock was taken degraded performance
significantly.
The change does the following:
1) Disables interrupts around the CAS operation, and
2) Changes the loads and stores to use the ordered completer, "o", on
PA 2.0. "o" and "ma" with a zero offset are equivalent. The latter is
accepted on both PA 1.X and 2.0.
The use of ordered loads and stores probably makes no difference on all
existing hardware, but it seemed pedantically correct. In particular, the CAS
operation must complete before LDCW lock is released. As written before, a
processor could reorder the operations.
I don't believe the period interrupts are disabled is long enough to
significantly increase interrupt latency. For example, the TLB insert code is
longer. Worst case is a memory fault in the CAS operation.

b3b42ac2cbae x86-64, modify_ldt: Ban 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels
disabled 16-bit segments on 64-bit kernels due to an information
leak. However, it does seem that people are genuinely using Wine to
run old 16-bit Windows programs on Linux.
A proper fix for this ("espfix64") is coming in the upcoming merge
window, but as a temporary fix, create a sysctl to allow the
administrator to re-enable support for 16-bit segments.
It adds a "/proc/sys/abi/ldt16" sysctl that defaults to zero (off). If
you hit this issue and care about your old Windows program more than
you care about a kernel stack address information leak, you can do
echo 1 > /proc/sys/abi/ldt16
as root (add it to your startup scripts), and you should be ok.
The sysctl table is only added if you have COMPAT support enabled on
x86-64, but I assume anybody who runs old windows binaries very much
does that ;)

Meta overrode _STK_LIM_MAX (the default RLIMIT_STACK hard limit) to
256MB, apparently in an attempt to prevent setup_arg_pages's
STACK_GROWSUP code from choosing the maximum stack size of 1GB, which is
far too large for Meta's limited virtual address space and hits a BUG_ON
(stack_top is usually 0x3ffff000).
However the commit "metag: Reduce maximum stack size to 256MB" reduces
the absolute stack size limit to a safe value for metag. This allows the
default _STK_LIM_MAX override to be removed, bringing the default
behaviour in line with all other architectures. Parisc in particular
recently removed their override of _STK_LIMT_MAX in commit e0d8898d76a7
(parisc: remove _STK_LIM_MAX override) since it subtly affects stack
allocation semantics in userland. Meta's uapi/asm/resource.h can now be
removed and switch to using generic-y.

This patch affects only architectures where the stack grows upwards
(currently parisc and metag only). On those do not hardcode the maximum
initial stack size to 1GB for 32-bit processes, but make it configurable
via a config option.
The main problem with the hardcoded stack size is, that we have two
memory regions which grow upwards: stack and heap. To keep most of the
memory available for heap in a flexmap memory layout, it makes no sense
to hard allocate up to 1GB of the memory for stack which can't be used
as heap then.
This patch makes the stack size for 32-bit processes configurable and
uses 80MB as default value which has been in use during the last few
years on parisc and which hasn't showed any problems yet.

Specify the maximum stack size for arches where the stack grows upward
(parisc and metag) in asm/processor.h rather than hard coding in
fs/exec.c so that metag can specify a smaller value of 256MB rather than
1GB.
This fixes a BUG on metag if the RLIMIT_STACK hard limit is increased
beyond a safe value by root. E.g. when starting a process after running
"ulimit -H -s unlimited" it will then attempt to use a stack size of the
maximum 1GB which is far too big for metag's limited user virtual
address space (stack_top is usually 0x3ffff000):
BUG: failure at fs/exec.c:589/shift_arg_pages()!

Volatile access doesn't really imply the compiler barrier. Volatile access
is only ordered with respect to other volatile accesses, it isn't ordered
with respect to general memory accesses. Gcc may reorder memory accesses
around volatile access, as we can see in this simple example (if we
compile it with optimization, both increments of *b will be collapsed to
just one):
void fn(volatile int *a, long *b)
{
(*b)++;
*a = 10;
(*b)++;
}
Consequently, we need the compiler barrier after a write to the volatile
variable, to make sure that the compiler doesn't reorder the volatile
write with something else.

A MIPS64 kernel may support ELF files for all 3 MIPS ABIs
(O32, N32, N64). Furthermore, the AUDIT_ARCH_MIPS{,EL}64 token
does not provide enough information about the ABI for the 64-bit
process. As a result of which, userland needs to use complex
seccomp filters to decide whether a syscall belongs to the o32 or n32
or n64 ABI. Therefore, a new arch token for MIPS64/n32 is added so it
can be used by seccomp to explicitely set syscall filters for this ABI.

The invalidation is required in order to maintain proper semantics
under CoW conditions. In scenarios where a process clones several
threads, a thread operating on a core whose DTLB entry for a
particular hugepage has not been invalidated, will be reading from
the hugepage that belongs to the forked child process, even after
hugetlb_cow().
The thread will not see the updated page as long as the stale DTLB
entry remains cached, the thread attempts to write into the page,
the child process exits, or the thread gets migrated to a different
processor.

Seems like we've had more fixes than usual this release cycle, but
there's nothing in particular that we're doing differently. Perhaps it's
just one of those cycles where more people are finding more regressions
(and/or that the latency of when people actually test what's been in
the tree for a while is catching up so that we get the bug reports now).
The bigger changes here are are for TI and Marvell platforms:
* Timing changes for GPMC (generic localbus) on OMAP causing some largeish
DTS deltas.
* Fixes to window allocation on PCI for mvebu touching drivers/ stuff. Patches
have acks from subsystem maintainers where needed.
* A fix from Thomas for a botched DT conversion in drivers/edma.
There's a handful of other fixes for the above platforms as well as sunxi,
at91, i.MX. I also included a MAINTAINER update for Broadcom, and a trivial
move of a binding doc.
