Commit d065bd810b ("mm: retry page fault when blocking on disk transfer") and
and commit 37b23e0525 ("x86,mm: make pagefault killable")
The above commits introduced changes into the nios2 pagefault handler
for making the page fault handler retryable as well as killable.
These changes reduce the mmap_sem hold time, which is crucial
during OOM killer invocation.

prepare_to_copy() was removed from all architectures supported at that
time in commit 55ccf3fe3f ("fork: move the real prepare_to_copy()
users to arch_dup_task_struct()"). Remove it from nios2 as well.

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.
That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.
In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.
However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d45 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.
To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.
This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.
Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

First two are minor fallout from the param rework which went in this merge
window.
Next three are a series which fixes a longstanding (but never previously
reported and unlikely , so no CC stable) race between kallsyms and freeing
the init section.
Finally, a minor cleanup as our module refcount will now be -1 during
unload.

Pull module and param fixes from Rusty Russell:
"Surprising number of fixes this merge window :(
The first two are minor fallout from the param rework which went in
this merge window.
The next three are a series which fixes a longstanding (but never
previously reported and unlikely , so no CC stable) race between
kallsyms and freeing the init section.
Finally, a minor cleanup as our module refcount will now be -1 during
unload"
* tag 'fixes-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rusty/linux:
module: make module_refcount() a signed integer.
module: fix race in kallsyms resolution during module load success.
module: remove mod arg from module_free, rename module_memfree().
module_arch_freeing_init(): new hook for archs before module->module_init freed.
param: fix uninitialized read with CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC
param: initialize store function to NULL if not available.
Nothing needs the module pointer any more, and the next patch will
call it from RCU, where the module itself might no longer exist.
Removing the arg is the safest approach.
This just codifies the use of the module_alloc/module_free pattern
which ftrace and bpf use.

Follow aa0d532605 ("ia64: Use preempt_schedule_irq") and use
preempt_schedule_irq instead of enabling/disabling interrupts and
messing around with PREEMPT_ACTIVE in the nios2 low-level preemption

TIF_NEED_RESCHED, preempt_schedule_irq will already take care of
rescheduling.

If NIOS2_CMDLINE_IGNORE_DTB is selected but CMDLINE_BOOL isn't and thus
CONFIG_CMDLINE is not defined, the build fails with the following error:

arch/nios2/kernel/setup.c:131:30: error: 'CONFIG_CMDLINE' undeclared

strncpy(boot_command_line, CONFIG_CMDLINE, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);
This can be reproduced using randconfig with KCONFIG_SEED=0xE5B8749E, i.e.
'make KCONFIG_SEED=0xE5B8749E ARCH=nios2 randconfig'.
Fix this by letting NIOS2_CMDLINE_IGNORE_DTB depend on CMDLINE_BOOL, so we
actually have a default kernel command string to fall back to.
