Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another batch of cpu hotplug core updates and conversions:
- Provide core infrastructure for multi instance drivers so the
drivers do not have to keep custom lists.
- Convert custom lists to the new infrastructure. The block-mq custom
list conversion comes through the block tree and makes the diffstat
tip over to more lines removed than added.
- Handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable calls more gracefully.
- Remove the obsolete CPU_STARTING/DYING notifier support.
- Convert another batch of notifier users.
The relayfs changes which conflicted with the conversion have been
shipped to me by Andrew.
The remaining lot is targeted for 4.10 so that we finally can remove
the rest of the notifiers"

Storing this value will help prevent unwinders from getting out of sync
with the function graph tracer ret_stack. Now instead of needing a
stateful iterator, they can compare the return address pointer to find
the right ret_stack entry.
Note that an array of 50 ftrace_ret_stack structs is allocated for every
task. So when an arch implements this, it will add either 200 or 400
bytes of memory usage per task (depending on whether it's a 32-bit or
64-bit platform).

At the CPU/ISA level, the J2 is compatible with SH-2, and thus the
changes to add J2 support build on existing SH-2 support. However, J2
does not duplicate the memory-mapped SH-2 features like the cache
interface. Instead, the cache interfaces is described in the device
tree, and new code is added to be able to access the flat device tree
at early boot before it is unflattened.
Support is also added for receiving interrupts on trap numbers in the
range 16 to 31, since the J-Core aic1 interrupt controller generates
these traps. This range was unused but nominally for hardware
exceptions on SH-2, and a few values in this range were used for
exceptions on SH-2A, but SH-2A has its own version of the relevant
code.
No individual cpu subtypes are added for J2 since the intent moving
forward is to represent SoCs with device tree rather than as
hard-coded subtypes in the kernel. The CPU_SUBTYPE_J2 Kconfig item
exists only to fit into the existing cpu selection mechanism until it
is overhauled.

The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA
attributes passed by pointer. Thus the pointer can point to const data.
However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield. Instead unsigned
long will do fine:
1. This is just simpler. Both in terms of reading the code and setting
attributes. Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack
and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits.
2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the
attributes are passed by value.

In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in
ti->flags. alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only),
tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations,
placing the flag in ti->status.
Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common
implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and
drop the custom implementations.
Additional architectures can opt in by removing their
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines.

The futex cmpxchg runtime testing in kernel/futex.c depends on
accesses to address 0 producing EFAULT, which obviously does not work
on nommu. Since SH always has cmpxchg, disable the broken runtime
detection.
At some point this should be fixed at the kernel/futex.c level. UP
machines can always provide a working cmpxchg with interrupt masking,
and SMP cannot function without a working cmpxchg anyway.

SH3/4 (with MMU) have a virtually indexed cache, requiring explicit
work to avoid consistency problems arising from having the same
physical address range cached in multiple cache lines. This is
unneeded for the NOMMU case, and some of the resulting code paths
(kmap_coherent) don't work. SH2 only avoided this problem by having a
4-way associative cache with way size equal to the page size (4k),
yielding no cache index bits outside of the page offset and thus no
aliases.

Up until now, the SH version of the sigcontext structure, and thus
mcontext_t/ucontext_t, varied depending on the cpu model the kernel
was built to run on. SH-4 (including SH-4A) and SH-2A used the form
with space for FPU registers, and everything else used a form that
omitted them.
From a userspace perspective, however, the structure layout must be
fixed for a given ABI. Traditionally glibc and uClibc used the form
with space for FPU registers only when __SH4__ (which implies FPU;
__SH4_NOFPU__ is the predefined macro for SH-4 but with no-FPU ABI)
was defined. As a result:
- SH-4 no-FPU programs never matched kernel sigcontext.
- SH-3 programs did not match kernel sigcontext if run on SH-4,
despite an apparent intent that they be compatible.
- SH-2 and SH-2A programs (using uClibc) did not match kernel
sigcontext if run on SH-2A.
The mismatch might seem inconsequential because it occurs at the end
of the sigcontext structure, but sigcontext is embedded as uc_mcontext
in ucontext_t, where it is followed by uc_sigmask, an important member
for signal handlers to have access to. In particular, access to
uc_sigmask is necessary for a correct implementation of thread
cancellation.
It would be possible to retain support for both sigcontext ABIs via a
personality mechanism, but since many configurations were already
broken and nobody noticed, and since there are very few if any users
of legacy no-FPU models anymore, I have opted to just remove the
variation and always include space for the FPU registers in

- Removal of most of_platform_populate() calls in arch code. Now the DT
core code calls it in the default case and platforms only need to call
it if they have special needs.
- Use pr_fmt on all the DT core print statements.
- CoreSight binding doc improvements to block name descriptions.
- Add dt_to_config script which can parse dts files and list
corresponding kernel config options.
- Fix memory leak hit with a PowerMac DT.
- Correct a bunch of STMicro compatible strings to use the correct

Core changes:
- The big item is of course the completion of the character
device ABI. It has now replaced and surpassed the former
unmaintainable sysfs ABI: we can now hammer (bitbang)
individual lines or sets of lines and read individual lines
or sets of lines from userspace, and we can also register
to listen to GPIO events from userspace. As a tie-in we
have two new tools in tools/gpio: gpio-hammer and
gpio-event-mon that illustrate the proper use of the new
ABI. As someone said: the wild west days of GPIO are now
over.
- Continued to remove the pointless
ARCH_[WANT_OPTIONAL|REQUIRE]_GPIOLIB Kconfig symbols.
I'm patching hexagon, openrisc, powerpc, sh, unicore,
ia64 and microblaze. These are either ACKed by their
maintainers or patched anyways after a grace period and
no response from maintainers. Some archs (ARM) come in from
their trees, and others (x86) are still not fixed, so I
might send a second pull request to root it out later in
this merge window, or just defer to v4.9.
- The GPIO tools are moved to the tools build system.
New drivers:
- New driver for the MAX77620/MAX20024.
- New driver for the Intel Merrifield.
- Enabled PCA953x for the TI PCA9536.
- Enabled PCA953x for the Intel Edison.
- Enabled R8A7792 in the RCAR driver.
Driver improvements:
- The STMPE and F7188x now supports the .get_direction()
callback.
- The Xilinx driver supports setting multiple lines at
once.
- ACPI support for the Vulcan GPIO controller.
- The MMIO GPIO driver supports device tree probing.
- The Acer One 10 is supported through the _DEP ACPI
attribute.
Cleanups:
- A major cleanup of the OF/DT support code. It is way
easier to read and understand now, probably this improves
performance too.
- Drop a few redundant .owner assignments.
- Remove CLPS711x boardfile support: we are 100% DT.

Pull GPIO updates from Linus Walleij:
"This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v4.8 kernel cycle. The big
news is the completion of the chardev ABI which I'm very happy about
and apart from that it's an ordinary, quite busy cycle. The details
are below.
The patches are tested in linux-next for some time, patches to other
subsystem mostly have ACKs.
I got overly ambitious with configureing lines as input for IRQ lines
but it turns out that some controllers have their interrupt-enable and
input-enabling in orthogonal settings so the assumption that all IRQ
lines are input lines does not hold. Oh well, revert and back to the
drawing board with that.

This updates the generic and arch specific implementation to return true
if we need to do a tlb flush. That means if a __tlb_remove_page
indicate a flush is needed, the page we try to remove need to be tracked
and added again after the flush. We need to track it because we have
already update the pte to none and we can't just loop back.
This change is done to enable us to do a tlb_flush when we try to flush
a range that consists of different page sizes. For architectures like
ppc64, we can do a range based tlb flush and we need to track page size
for that. When we try to remove a huge page, we will force a tlb flush
and starts a new mmu gather.

__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations.
PGALLOC_GFP uses __GFP_REPEAT but {pgd,pmd}_alloc allocate from
{pgd,pmd}_cache but both caches are allocating up to PAGE_SIZE objects.
This means that this flag has never been actually useful here because it
has always been used only for PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.

This is the third version of the patchset previously sent [1]. I have
basically only rebased it on top of 4.7-rc1 tree and dropped "dm: get
rid of superfluous gfp flags" which went through dm tree. I am sending
it now because it is tree wide and chances for conflicts are reduced
considerably when we want to target rc2. I plan to send the next step
and rename the flag and move to a better semantic later during this
release cycle so we will have a new semantic ready for 4.8 merge window
hopefully.
Motivation:
While working on something unrelated I've checked the current usage of
__GFP_REPEAT in the tree. It seems that a majority of the usage is and
always has been bogus because __GFP_REPEAT has always been about costly
high order allocations while we are using it for order-0 or very small
orders very often. It seems that a big pile of them is just a
copy&paste when a code has been adopted from one arch to another.
I think it makes some sense to get rid of them because they are just
making the semantic more unclear. Please note that GFP_REPEAT is
documented as
* __GFP_REPEAT: Try hard to allocate the memory, but the allocation attempt
* _might_ fail. This depends upon the particular VM implementation.
while !costly requests have basically nofail semantic. So one could
reasonably expect that order-0 request with __GFP_REPEAT will not loop
for ever. This is not implemented right now though.
I would like to move on with __GFP_REPEAT and define a better semantic
for it.
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT origin/master | wc -l
111
$ git grep __GFP_REPEAT | wc -l
36
So we are down to the third after this patch series. The remaining
places really seem to be relying on __GFP_REPEAT due to large allocation
requests. This still needs some double checking which I will do later
after all the simple ones are sorted out.
I am touching a lot of arch specific code here and I hope I got it right
but as a matter of fact I even didn't compile test for some archs as I
do not have cross compiler for them. Patches should be quite trivial to
review for stupid compile mistakes though. The tricky parts are usually
hidden by macro definitions and thats where I would appreciate help from
arch maintainers.
[1] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1461849846-27209-1-git-send-email-mhocko@kernel.org
This patch (of 19):
__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced
around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. Yet we
have the full kernel tree with its usage for apparently order-0
allocations. This is really confusing because __GFP_REPEAT is
explicitly documented to allow allocation failures which is a weaker
semantic than the current order-0 has (basically nofail).
Let's simply drop __GFP_REPEAT from those places. This would allow to
identify place which really need allocator to retry harder and formulate
a more specific semantic for what the flag is supposed to do actually.

The of_iommu_init() is called multiple times by arch code,
make it postcore_initcall_sync, then we can drop relevant
calls fully.
Note, the IOMMUs should have a chance to perform some basic
initialisation before we start adding masters to them. So
postcore_initcall_sync is good choice, it ensures of_iommu_init()
called before of_platform_populate.

Since all architectures have this implemented now natively, remove this
dead code.
