ipi_call_lock/unlock() lock resp. unlock call_function.lock. This lock
protects only the call_function data structure itself, but it's
completely unrelated to cpu_online_mask. The mask to which the IPIs
are sent is calculated before call_function.lock is taken in
smp_call_function_many(), so the locking around set_cpu_online() is
pointless and can be removed.[ tglx: Massaged changelog ]

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

commit 5e185581d7c46ddd33cd9c01106d1fc86efb9376
Author: James Bottomley[PARISC] fix PA1.1 oops on boot
Didn't quite fix the crash on boot. It moved it from PA1.1 processors to
PA2.0 narrow kernels. The final fix is to make sure the [id]tlb_miss_20 paths
also work. Even on narrow systems, these paths require using the wide
instructions becuase the tlb insertion format is wide. Fix this by
conditioning the dep[wd],z on whether we're being called from _11 or _20[w]
paths.Tested-by: Helge Deller

In certain configurations, the resulting kernel becomes too large to boot
because the linker places the long branch stubs for the merged .text section

Pull user namespace enhancements from Eric Biederman:
"This is a course correction for the user namespace, so that we can
reach an inexpensive, maintainable, and reasonably complete
implementation.Highlights:
- Config guards make it impossible to enable the user namespace and
code that has not been converted to be user namespace safe.- Use of the new kuid_t type ensures the if you somehow get past the
config guards the kernel will encounter type errors if you enable
user namespaces and attempt to compile in code whose permission
checks have not been updated to be user namespace safe.- All uids from child user namespaces are mapped into the initial
user namespace before they are processed. Removing the need to add
an additional check to see if the user namespace of the compared
uids remains the same.- With the user namespaces compiled out the performance is as good or
better than it is today.- For most operations absolutely nothing changes performance or
operationally with the user namespace enabled.- The worst case performance I could come up with was timing 1
billion cache cold stat operations with the user namespace code
enabled. This went from 156s to 164s on my laptop (or 156ns to
164ns per stat operation).- (uid_t)-1 and (gid_t)-1 are reserved as an internal error value.
Most uid/gid setting system calls treat these value specially
anyway so attempting to use -1 as a uid would likely cause
entertaining failures in userspace.- If setuid is called with a uid that can not be mapped setuid fails.
I have looked at sendmail, login, ssh and every other program I
could think of that would call setuid and they all check for and
handle the case where setuid fails.- If stat or a similar system call is called from a context in which
we can not map a uid we lie and return overflowuid. The LFS
experience suggests not lying and returning an error code might be
better, but the historical precedent with uids is different and I
can not think of anything that would break by lying about a uid we
can't map.- Capabilities are localized to the current user namespace making it
safe to give the initial user in a user namespace all capabilities.My git tree covers all of the modifications needed to convert the core
kernel and enough changes to make a system bootable to runlevel 1."Fix up trivial conflicts due to nearby independent changes in fs/stat.c

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

Due to an errata, the PA7300LC generates a TLB miss interruption even on the
prefetch instruction. This means that prefetch(NULL), which is supposed to be
a nop on linux actually generates a NULL deref fault. Fix this by testing the
address of prefetch against NULL before doing the prefetch.Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

As pointed out by serveral people, PA1.1 only has a type 26 instruction
meaning that the space register must be explicitly encoded. Not giving an
explicit space means that the compiler uses the type 24 version which is PA2.0
only resulting in an illegal instruction crash.This regression was caused by

All PA1.1 systems have been oopsing on boot since

because a PA2.0 instruction was accidentally introduced into the PA1.1 TLB
insertion interruption path when it was consolidated with the do_alias macro.
Fix the do_alias macro only to use PA2.0 instructions if compiled for 64 bit.

The scheduler depends on receiving the CPU_STARTING notification, without
which we end up into a lot of trouble. So add the missing call to
notify_cpu_starting() in the bringup code.Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S. Bhat
