Pull driver core updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the "big" set of driver core patches for 4.17-rc1.There's really not much here, just a bunch of firmware code

something that is managable, along with a bunch of userspace tests for
it. Other than that, a handful of small bugfixes and reverts of things
that didn't work out.Full details are in the shortlog, it's not all that much.

Pull staging/IIO updates from Greg KH:
"Here is the big set of Staging/IIO driver patches for 4.17-rc1.It is a lot, over 500 changes, but not huge by previous kernel release
standards. We deleted more lines than we added again (27k added vs.
91k remvoed), thanks to finally being able to delete the IRDA drivers
and networking code.We also deleted the ccree crypto driver, but that's coming back in
through the crypto tree to you, in a much cleaned-up form.Added this round is at lot of "mt7621" device support, which is for an
embedded device that Neil Brown cares about, and of course a handful
of new IIO drivers as well.And finally, the fsl-mc core code moved out of the staging tree to the

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"This fixes some fallout from the net-next merge the other day, plus
some non-merge-window-related bug fixes:1) Fix sparse warnings in bcmgenet, systemport, b53, and mt7530

refcount on, and attached to a socket, which needs that refcount

resulting in a pre-PMTU update route still stuck on the socket and
thus continuing to get ICMPV6_PKT_TOOBIG errors. We end up never
seeing the updated route. (Alexey Kodanev)4) Missing list initializer(s) in TIPC (Jon Maloy)
5) Connect phy early to prevent crashes in lan78xx driver (Alexander
Graf)6) Fix build with modular NVMEM (Arnd Bergmann)

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"Nothing particularly stands out here, probably because people were
tied up with spectre/meltdown stuff last time around. Still, the main
pieces are:- Rework of our CPU features framework so that we can whitelist CPUs
that don't require kpti even in a heterogeneous system- Support for the IDC/DIC architecture extensions, which allow us to
elide instruction and data cache maintenance when writing out
instructions- Removal of the large memory model which resulted in suboptimal
codegen by the compiler and increased the use of literal pools,
which could potentially be used as ROP gadgets since they are
mapped as executable- Rework of forced signal delivery so that the siginfo_t is
well-formed and handling of show_unhandled_signals is consolidated
and made consistent between different fault types- More siginfo cleanup based on the initial patches from Eric
Biederman- Workaround for Cortex-A55 erratum #1024718

Pull time(r) updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"A small set of updates for timers and timekeeping:- The most interesting change is the consolidation of clock MONOTONIC
and clock BOOTTIME.Clock MONOTONIC behaves now exactly like clock BOOTTIME and does
not longer ignore the time spent in suspend. A new clock
MONOTONIC_ACTIVE is provived which behaves like clock MONOTONIC in
kernels before this change. This allows applications to
programmatically check for the clock MONOTONIC behaviour.As discussed in the review thread, this has the potential of
breaking user space and we might have to revert this. Knock on wood
that we can avoid that exercise.- Updates to the NTP mechanism to improve accuracy

- direct module dependency on libcrc32, removed own crc wrappers
- removed user space transaction ioctls
- use lighter locking when reading /proc/self/mounts, RCU instead of
mutex to avoid unnecessary contentionEnhancements:
- skip writeback of last page when truncating file to same size- send: do not issue unnecessary truncate operations
- mount option token specifiers: use %u for unsigned values, more
validation- selftests: more tree block validations
qgroups:
- preparatory work for splitting reservation types for data and
metadata, this should allow for more accurate tracking and fix some
issues with underflows or do further enhancements- split metadata reservations for started and joined transaction so
they do not get mixed up and are accounted correctly at commit time- with the above, it's possible to revert patch that potentially
deadlocks when trying to make more space by explicitly committing
when the quota limit is hit- fix root item corruption when multiple same source snapshots are
created with quota enabledRAID56:
- make sure target is identical to source when raid56 rebuild fails
after dev-replace- faster rebuild during scrub, batch by stripes and not
block-by-block- make more use of cached data when rebuilding from a missing device
Fixes:
- null pointer deref when device replace target is missing- fix fsync after hole punching when using no-holes feature
- fix lockdep splat when allocating percpu data with wrong GFP flags

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"There was a lot of work this cycle fixing bugs that were discovered
after the merge window and getting everything ready where we can
reasonably support fully unprivileged fuse. The bug fixes you already
have and much of the unprivileged fuse work is coming in via other
trees.Still left for fully unprivileged fuse is figuring out how to cleanly
handle .set_acl and .get_acl in the legacy case, and properly handling
of evm xattrs on unprivileged mounts.Included in the tree is a cleanup from Alexely that replaced a linked
list with a statically allocated fix sized array for the pid caches,
which simplifies and speeds things up.Then there is are some cleanups and fixes for the ipc namespace. The
motivation was that in reviewing other code it was discovered that
access ipc objects from different pid namespaces recorded pids in such
a way that when asked the wrong pids were returned. In the worst case
there has been a measured 30% performance impact for sysvipc
semaphores. Other test cases showed no measurable performance impact.
Manfred Spraul and Davidlohr Bueso who tend to work on sysvipc
performance both gave the nod that this is good enough.Casey Schaufler and James Morris have given their approval to the LSM
side of the changes.I simplified the types and the code dealing with sysvipc to pass just
kern_ipc_perm for all three types of ipc. Which reduced the header
dependencies throughout the kernel and simplified the lsm code.Which let me work on the pid fixes without having to worry about
trivial changes causing complete kernel recompiles"* 'userns-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace:

the TAD, however.In addition to that the ACPI battery driver is improved to handle
battery thresholds on ThinkPads, among other things, some bugs are
fixed, a new backlight quirk is added and some documentation is
updated.Specifics:
- Update the in-kernel ACPICA code to upstream revision 20180313
including:
* Module-level AML code handling fixes and simplifications (Bob
Moore, Erik Schmauss).
* Fixes and cleanups related to messaging (Bob Moore).
* Events handling fixes related to disabling and enabling GPEs
(Erik Schmauss).
* Introduction of SPDX license identifiers and removal of license
boilerplate in multiple files (Erik Schmauss).
* Assorted fixes and cleanups (Bob Moore, Erik Schmauss, Hans de
Goede, Seunghun Han).- Add new basic driver for the ACPI Time and Alarm Device (Rafael
Wysocki).- Modify the ACPI battery driver to support battery thresholds on
Lenovo ThinkPads (Ognjen Galic, Colin Ian King).- Avoid reporting battery capacity over 100 in the ACPI battery
driver in some cases (Laszlo Toth).- Make the kernel recognize an OEM _OSI string from Dell to avoid
power management issues with NVidia GPUs in Dell platforms (Alex
Hung).- Make the PCI IRQ management code handle missing _PRS cleanly (Alex
Hung).- Fix uevent notifications related to device hotplut (Lee, Chun-Yi).
- Prevent the ACPI PAD driver from leaking memory (Lenny Szubowicz).

Pull removal of in-kernel calls to syscalls from Dominik Brodowski:
"System calls are interaction points between userspace and the kernel.
Therefore, system call functions such as sys_xyzzy() or
compat_sys_xyzzy() should only be called from userspace via the
syscall table, but not from elsewhere in the kernel.At least on 64-bit x86, it will likely be a hard requirement from
v4.17 onwards to not call system call functions in the kernel: It is
better to use use a different calling convention for system calls
there, where struct pt_regs is decoded on-the-fly in a syscall wrapper
which then hands processing over to the actual syscall function. This
means that only those parameters which are actually needed for a
specific syscall are passed on during syscall entry, instead of
filling in six CPU registers with random user space content all the
time (which may cause serious trouble down the call chain). Those
x86-specific patches will be pushed through the x86 tree in the near
future.Moreover, rules on how data may be accessed may differ between kernel
data and user data. This is another reason why calling sys_xyzzy() is
generally a bad idea, and -- at most -- acceptable in arch-specific
code.This patchset removes all in-kernel calls to syscall functions in the
kernel with the exception of arch/. On top of this, it cleans up the
three places where many syscalls are referenced or prototyped, namely
kernel/sys_ni.c, include/linux/syscalls.h and include/linux/compat.h"* 'syscalls-next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brodo/linux: (109 commits)

Commit 2a98dc028f91 ("include/linux/bitmap.h: turn bitmap_set and
bitmap_clear into memset when possible") introduced an optimization to
bitmap_{set,clear}() which uses memset() when the start and length are
constants aligned to a byte.This is wrong on big-endian systems; our bitmaps are arrays of unsigned
long, so bit n is not at byte n / 8 in memory. This was caught by the
Btrfs selftests, but the bitmap selftests also fail when run on a
big-endian machine.We can still use memset if the start and length are aligned to an
unsigned long, so do that on big-endian. The same problem applies to
the memcmp in bitmap_equal(), so fix it there, too.Fixes: 2a98dc028f91 ("include/linux/bitmap.h: turn bitmap_set and bitmap_clear into memset when possible")
Fixes: 2c6deb01525a ("bitmap: use memcmp optimisation in more situations")

Pul removal of obsolete architecture ports from Arnd Bergmann:
"This removes the entire architecture code for blackfin, cris, frv,
m32r, metag, mn10300, score, and tile, including the associated device
drivers.I have been working with the (former) maintainers for each one to
ensure that my interpretation was right and the code is definitely
unused in mainline kernels. Many had fond memories of working on the
respective ports to start with and getting them included in upstream,
but also saw no point in keeping the port alive without any users.In the end, it seems that while the eight architectures are extremely
different, they all suffered the same fate: There was one company in
charge of an SoC line, a CPU microarchitecture and a software
ecosystem, which was more costly than licensing newer off-the-shelf
CPU cores from a third party (typically ARM, MIPS, or RISC-V). It
seems that all the SoC product lines are still around, but have not
used the custom CPU architectures for several years at this point. In
contrast, CPU instruction sets that remain popular and have actively
maintained kernel ports tend to all be used across multiple licensees.[ See the new nds32 port merged in the previous commit for the next
generation of "one company in charge of an SoC line, a CPU
microarchitecture and a software ecosystem" - Linus ]The removal came out of a discussion that is now documented at
https://lwn.net/Articles/748074/. Unlike the original plans, I'm not
marking any ports as deprecated but remove them all at once after I
made sure that they are all unused. Some architectures (notably tile,
mn10300, and blackfin) are still being shipped in products with old
kernels, but those products will never be updated to newer kernel
releases.After this series, we still have a few architectures without mainline
gcc support:- unicore32 and hexagon both have very outdated gcc releases, but the
maintainers promised to work on providing something newer. At least
in case of hexagon, this will only be llvm, not gcc.- openrisc, risc-v and nds32 are still in the process of finishing
their support or getting it added to mainline gcc in the first
place. They all have patched gcc-7.3 ports that work to some
degree, but complete upstream support won't happen before gcc-8.1.
Csky posted their first kernel patch set last week, their situation
will be similar[ Palmer Dabbelt points out that RISC-V support is in mainline gcc
since gcc-7, although gcc-7.3.0 is the recommended minimum - Linus ]"This really says it all:
