This is a followup to my patches that fixed this all over the tree quite some
time ago. This one went unnoticed for some reason.TLB handling for CRIS contains local_irq_disable() after local_save_flags().
Turn this into local_irq_save().Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina

The current implementation of get_user_desc() sign extends the return
value because of integer promotion rules. For the most part, this
doesn't matter, because the top bit of base2 is usually 0. If, however,
that bit is 1, then the entire value will be 0xffff... which is
probably not what the caller intended.This patch casts the entire thing to unsigned before returning, which
generates almost the same assembly as the current code but replaces the
final "cltq" (sign extend) with a "mov %eax %eax" (zero-extend). This
fixes booting certain guests under KVM.Signed-off-by: Chris Lalancette

Patch f598282f5145036312d90875d0ed5c14b49fd8a7 exposed a problem in
powerpc MSI-X functionality, making network interfaces such as ixgbe
and cxgb3 stop to work when MSI-X is enabled. RX interrupts were not
being generated.The problem was caused because MSI irq was not being effectively

This patch fixes two issues in the procfs stack information on
x86-64 linux.The 32 bit loader compat_do_execve did not store stack
start. (this was figured out by Alexey Dobriyan).The stack information on a x64_64 kernel always shows 0 kbyte
stack usage, because of a missing implementation of the KSTK_ESP
macro which always returned -1.The new implementation now returns the right value.

Building with --build-id option, .note.gnu.build-id section is added
to vmlinux.bin. But some old buggy binutils creates a huge vmlinux.bin,
and a bootloader fails to boot its zImage as well.This patch adds a NOTES macro to a linker script vmlinux.ld.S to put
.note.gnu.build-id section into .note section.
Then, the .note section will be removed, because "-R .note" option is
specified in OBJCOPYFLAGS to make a vmlinux.bin binary.Signed-off-by: Hirokazu Takata

Mapping the same memory using two different attributes (memory
type, shareability, cacheability) is unpredictable. During boot,
we encounter a situation when we're updating the kernel's page
tables which can lead to dirty cache lines existing in the cache
which are subsequently missed. This causes stack corruption,
and therefore a crash.Therefore, ensure that the shared and cacheability settings
matches the configuration that will be used later; this together
with the restriction in early_cachepolicy() ensures that we won't
create a mismatch during boot.Acked-by: Catalin Marinas

ARM unwind is known to compile only with EABI and not-buggy compilers.

The handle_edge_irq() flowhandler disables edge int sources which occur
too fast (i.e. another edge comes in before the irq handler function
had a chance to finish). Currently, the mask_ack() callback does not
ack the edges in hardware, leading to an endless loop in the flowhandler
where it tries to shut up the irq source.When I rewrote the alchemy IRQ code I wrongly assumed the mask_ack()
callback was only used by the level flowhandler, hence it omitted the
(at the time pointless) edge acks. Turned out I was wrong; so here
is a complete mask_ack implementation for Alchemy IC, which fixes
the above mentioned problem.Signed-off-by: Manuel Lauss
