PCLMULQDQ is used to accelerate the most time-consuming part of GHASH,
carry-less multiplication. More information about PCLMULQDQ can be
found at:http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/carry-less-multiplication-and-its-usage-for-computing-the-gcm-mode/
Because PCLMULQDQ changes XMM state, its usage must be enclosed with
kernel_fpu_begin/end, which can be used only in process context, the
acceleration is implemented as crypto_ahash. That is, request in soft
IRQ context will be defered to the cryptd kernel thread.Signed-off-by: Huang Ying

This is largely a straightforward conversion. The patch results in
fewer output sections, and some data being reordered, but should have
no functional impact.Also, note that this patch moves some data (namely, init_task and
cacheline-aligned) inside [_sdata,_edata].Because frv already builds using -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections,
we can't use BSS_SECTION or RW_DATA_SECTION yet, since they do not
currently include the required .bss.* and .data.* sections.Signed-off-by: Nelson Elhage

Merge reason:
Suresh Siddha (1):
x86, pat: don't use rb-tree based lookup in reserve_memtype()... requires previous x86/pat commits already pushed to Linus.
Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin
-
Recent enhancement of rb-tree based lookup exposed a bug with the lookup
mechanism in the reserve_memtype() which ensures that there are no conflicting
memtype requests for the memory range.memtype_rb_search() returns an entry which has a start address = new requested end. This results in conflicting memtype
mappings.Same bug exists with the old code which uses cached_entry from where
we traverse the linear linked list. But the new rb-tree code exposes this
bug fairly easily.For now, don't use the memtype_rb_search() and always start the search from
the head of linear linked list in reserve_memtype(). Linear linked list
for most of the systems grow's to few 10's of entries(as we track memory type
of RAM pages using struct page). So we should be ok for now.We still retain the rbtree and use it to speed up free_memtype() which
doesn't have the same bug(as we know what exactly we are searching for
in free_memtype).Also use list_for_each_entry_from() in free_memtype() so that we start
the search from rb-tree lookup result.Reported-by: Markus Trippelsdorf

Eliminate the 'allow_au1k_wait' variable. MIPS kernel installs the
Alchemy-specific wait code before timer initialization; if the C0
timer must be used for timekeeping the wait function is set to NULL
which means no wait implementation is available.As a sideeffect, the 'wait instruction available' output in
/proc/cpuinfo now correctly indicates whether 'wait' is usable.Run-tested on DB1200.

On some CPUs, it is more efficient to disable and enable interrupts in the
kernel rather than use ll/sc for atomic operations. But if we were to set
cpu_has_llsc to false, we would break the userspace futex interface (in
asm/futex.h).We separate the two concepts, with a new predicate kernel_uses_llsc, that
lets us disable the kernel's use of ll/sc while still allowing the futex
code to use it.Also there were a couple of cases in bitops.h where we were using ll/sc
unconditionally even if cpu_has_llsc were false.Signed-off-by: David Daney
