Remove the following redundant and never or rarely used kconfig syntax:
- "def_boolean" (same as "def_bool")
- "requires" (same as "depends on")
- "depends" (same as "depends on")This patch contains the code changes and Kconfig updates.
The shipped files are in next patch to let actual codechange stand out.Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk

Jan Engelhardt reported:
You can cause a recursion in kbuild/make with the following:make O=$PWD kernel/time.o
make mrproperOf course no one would use O=$PWD (that's just the testcase),
but this happened too often:/ws/linux/linux-2.6.23$ make O=/ws/linux/linux-2.6.23 kernel/time.o
(Oops - should have been O=/ws/linux/obj-2.6.23!)Fixed by an explicit test for this case - we error
out if output directory and source directory are the same.Tested-by: Jan Engelhardt

With specific configurations requesting help for certain
menu lines caused menuconfig to crash.
This was tracked down to a null pointer bug.

and to Gabriel C for the backtrace

Previously kbuild choked over the following:
obj-y += ../../../arch/i386/kernel/bootflag.oThis has resulted in some rather ugly workarounds in
current x86_64 tree.
This patch fixes kbuild to allow the above and enable
potential cleanups in x86_64 and maybe in other places.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

This patch updates the _shipped files for genksyms.
See previous patch for actual functional changes.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg
-
Recently the __extension__ keyword has been introduced in the kernel.
Teach genksyms about this keyword so it can generate correct CRC for
exported symbols that uses a symbol marked __extension__.
For now only the typedef variant:__extension__ typedef ...
is supported.
Later we may add more variants as needed.This patch contains the actual source file changes. The
following patch will hold modifications to the generated
files (*_shipped) and only after the second patch the fix
has effect.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg
-
When enabling GENERATE_PARSER the genksyms Makefile
failed to create _shipped version of generated files.Modifying keywords.gperf failed to cause a rebuild
of genksyms.
Fixed by specifying keywowrds .c as explicit prerequisite
of the lexer.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

Currently scripts/ver_linux prints "Binutils" or other random
information for the version number in the "binutils" output line
on some distributions. This patch corrects that.When I initially submitted a patch to correct that, I was not aware
that the output from "ld -v" could differ as much as it turned out
it can, so my original fix turned out to not cover all bases.
This patch works correctly with all the different "ld -v" output
that people posted in replys to my first patch, so it should be a
clear win over what we have currently.Signed-off-by: Jesper Juhl

Fix ver_linux glibc version printing (for real this time)
Alexey Dobriyan reported that commit
4a645d5ea65baaa5736bcb566673bf4a351b2ad8

cygwin provides the header file but the lib file needs
to be added manually. A generic fix is to check if
we can compile and link a program that uses gettext()

Currently find_legacy_serial_ports() can find no serial ports on the
OPB with flattened device tree. Thus no legacy boot console can be
initialized. Just the early udbg console works, which is initialized
with udbg_init_44x_as1 on the UART's physical address specified in
kernel config. This happens because we look for ns16750 serial
devices only and expect opb node to have a device type property. This
patch makes it look for ns16550-compatible devices and use
of_device_is_compatible() for opb in case device type is not
specified.Signed-off-by: Valentine Barshak

This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for
user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them
(currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T).We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the
ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree.We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since
that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages
unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That
would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as
keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted)
and is not addressed here.Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt.
