Computing the integer square root is a rather expensive operation, at
least compared to doing a 64x64 -> 64 multiply (avg*avg) and, on 64
bit platforms, doing an extra comparison to a constant (variance

…roonie/sound into for-linus
ASoC: Fixes for v4.5
A rather large batch of fixes here, almost all in the Intel driver.
The changes that got merged in this merge window for Skylake were rather
large and as well as issues that you'd expect in a large block of new
code there were some problems created for older processors which needed
fixing up. Things are largely settling down now hopefully. -
This patch fixes vulnerability CVE-2016-2085. The problem exists
because the vm_verify_hmac() function includes a use of memcmp().
Unfortunately, this allows timing side channel attacks; specifically
a MAC forgery complexity drop from 2^128 to 2^12. This patch changes
the memcmp() to the cryptographically safe crypto_memneq().Reported-by: Xiaofei Rex Guo

MMUv4 supports 2 concurrent page sizes: Normal and Super [4K to 16M]
So far Linux supported a single super page size for a given Normal page,
depending on the software page walking address split.
e.g. we had 11:8:13 address split for 8K page, which meant super page
was 2 ^(8+13) = 2M (given that THP size has to be PMD_SHIFT)Now we turn this around, by allowing multiple Super Pages in Kconfig
(currently 2M and 16M only) and forcing page walker address split to
PGDIR_SHIFT and PAGE_SHIFTFor configs without Super page, things are same as before and
PGDIR_SHIFT can be hacked to get non default address splitThe motivation for this change is a customer who needs 16M super page
and a 8K Normal page combo.Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta

: The problem is that ubsan callbacks use spinlocks and might be called
: before lockdep is initialized. Particularly this line in the
: reserve_ebda_region function causes problem:
:
: lowmem = *(unsigned short *)__va(BIOS_LOWMEM_KILOBYTES);
:
: If i put lockdep_init() before reserve_ebda_region call in
: x86_64_start_reservations kernel loads well.Fix this ordering issue permanently: change lockdep so that it uses
hlists for the hash tables. Unlike a list_head, an hlist_head is in its
initialized state when it is all-zeroes, so lockdep is ready for
operation immediately upon boot - lockdep_init() need not have run.The patch will also save some memory.
lockdep_init() and lockdep_initialized can be done away with now - a 4.6
patch has been prepared to do this.Reported-by: Mike Krinkin
