Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler(); called when
sigframe has been successfully built. All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).Signed-off-by: Al Viro

It's already called if TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME is set, so we only
need to add the actual work. Note that checking for RESTORE_SIGMASK
was not needed - set_restore_sigmask() also sets SIGPENDING, so
we never RESTORE_SIGMASK without SIGPENDING.Signed-off-by: Al Viro

As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do
retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is
incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is
pending in the shared queue.Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f28f
("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked")
which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after
successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code
across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong,
so using this helper function should stop that from happening again.Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov

Sigh, I missed to check which architecture Kconfig files actually
include the core Kconfig file. There are a few which did not. So we
broke them.Instead of adding the includes to those, we are better off to move the
include to init/Kconfig like we did already with irqs and others.This does not change anything for the architectures using the old
style periodic timer mode. It just solves the build wreckage there.For those architectures which use the clock events infrastructure it
moves the include of the core Kconfig file to "General setup" which is
a way more logical place than having it at random locations specified
by the architecture specific Kconfigs.Reported-by: Ingo Molnar

Historical prepare_to_copy() is mostly a no-op, duplicated for majority of

If the provided system call number is equal to __NR_syscalls, the
current check will pass and a function pointer just after the system
call table may be called, since sys_call_table is an array with total
size __NR_syscalls.Whether or not this is a security bug depends on what the compiler puts
immediately after the system call table. It's likely that this won't do
anything bad because there is an additional NULL check on the syscall
entry, but if there happens to be a non-NULL value immediately after the
system call table, this may result in local privilege escalation.Signed-off-by: Dan Rosenberg

lib: use generic pci_iomap on all architectures
Many architectures don't want to pull in iomap.c,
so they ended up duplicating pci_iomap from that file.
That function isn't trivial, and we are going to modify it
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/14/183
so the duplication hurts.This reduces the scope of the problem significantly,
by moving pci_iomap to a separate file and
referencing that from all architectures.* tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost:

Now all ARCH_POPULATES_NODE_MAP archs select HAVE_MEBLOCK_NODE_MAP -
there's no user of early_node_map[] left. Kill early_node_map[] and
replace ARCH_POPULATES_NODE_MAP with HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP. Also,
relocate for_each_mem_pfn_range() and helper from mm.h to memblock.h
as page_alloc.c would no longer host an alternative implementation.This change is ultimately one to one mapping and shouldn't cause any
observable difference; however, after the recent changes, there are
some functions which now would fit memblock.c better than page_alloc.c
and dependency on HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP instead of HAVE_MEMBLOCK
doesn't make much sense on some of them. Further cleanups for
functions inside HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP in mm.h would be nice.-v2: Fix compile bug introduced by mis-spelling
