This hooks dtc into Kbuild's dependency system.
Thus, for example, "make dtbs" will rebuild tegra-harmony.dtb if only
tegra20.dtsi has changed yet tegra-harmony.dts has not. The previous
lack of this feature recently caused me to have very confusing "git
bisect" results.For ARM, it's obvious what to add to $(targets). I'm not familiar enough
with other architectures to know what to add there. Powerpc appears to
already add various .dtb files into $(targets), but the other archs may
need something added to $(targets) to work.Signed-off-by: Stephen Warren

lib: use generic pci_iomap on all architectures
Many architectures don't want to pull in iomap.c,
so they ended up duplicating pci_iomap from that file.
That function isn't trivial, and we are going to modify it
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/14/183
so the duplication hurts.This reduces the scope of the problem significantly,
by moving pci_iomap to a separate file and
referencing that from all architectures.* tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/vhost:

Those two APIs were provided to optimize the calls of
tick_nohz_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_enter() into a single
irq disabled section. This way no interrupt happening in-between would
needlessly process any RCU job.Now we are talking about an optimization for which benefits
have yet to be measured. Let's start simple and completely decouple
idle rcu and dyntick idle logics to simplify.Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker

It is assumed that rcu won't be used once we switch to tickless
mode and until we restart the tick. However this is not always
true, as in x86-64 where we dereference the idle notifiers after
the tick is stopped.To prepare for fixing this, add two new APIs:
tick_nohz_idle_enter_norcu() and tick_nohz_idle_exit_norcu().If no use of RCU is made in the idle loop between
tick_nohz_enter_idle() and tick_nohz_exit_idle() calls, the arch
must instead call the new *_norcu() version such that the arch doesn't
need to call rcu_idle_enter() and rcu_idle_exit().Otherwise the arch must call tick_nohz_enter_idle() and
tick_nohz_exit_idle() and also call explicitly:- rcu_idle_enter() after its last use of RCU before the CPU is put
to sleep.
- rcu_idle_exit() before the first use of RCU after the CPU is woken

The tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() function, which tries to delay
the next timer tick as long as possible, can be called from two
places:- From the idle loop to start the dytick idle mode
- From interrupt exit if we have interrupted the dyntick
idle mode, so that we reprogram the next tick event in
case the irq changed some internal state that requires this
action.There are only few minor differences between both that
are handled by that function, driven by the ts->inidle
cpu variable and the inidle parameter. The whole guarantees
that we only update the dyntick mode on irq exit if we actually
interrupted the dyntick idle mode, and that we enter in RCU extended
quiescent state from idle loop entry only.Split this function into:
- tick_nohz_idle_enter(), which sets ts->inidle to 1, enters
dynticks idle mode unconditionally if it can, and enters into RCU
extended quiescent state.- tick_nohz_irq_exit() which only updates the dynticks idle mode
when ts->inidle is set (ie: if tick_nohz_idle_enter() has been called).To maintain symmetry, tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick() has been renamed
into tick_nohz_idle_exit().This simplifies the code and micro-optimize the irq exit path (no need
for local_irq_save there). This also prepares for the split between
dynticks and rcu extended quiescent state logics. We'll need this split to
further fix illegal uses of RCU in extended quiescent states in the idle
loop.Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker

memblock_init() initializes arrays for regions and memblock itself;
however, all these can be done with struct initializers and
memblock_init() can be removed. This patch kills memblock_init() and
initializes memblock with struct initializer.The only difference is that the first dummy entries don't have .nid
set to MAX_NUMNODES initially. This doesn't cause any behavior
difference.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

24aa07882b (memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free_range()
with generic ones) removed arch/x86/include/asm/memblock.h and dropped
its inclusion from include/linux/memblock.h which breaks other
architectures which depended on the generic memblock.h pulling in the
arch specific one.However, the proper fix isn't adding back the asm inclusion. memblock
doesn't have any arch dependent part and doesn't need arch specific
header file and asm/memblock.h files are either practically empty or
contain mostly unrelated arch specific stuff.* In microblaze, sh, powerpc, sparc and openrisc, asm/memblock.h is
either empty or just contains unused MEMBLOCK_DBG() macro. Remove
them.* In arm and unicore32, asm/memblock.h contains arch specific stuff.
Include it directly from its users. It might be a good idea to
rename the header file to avoid confusion.Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

As it was decided not to export struct pt_regs to userspace, struct
sigcontext shouldn't be using it either. The pt_regs struct for OpenRISC
is kernel internal and the layout of the registers may change in the
future. The struct user_regs_struct is what is guaranteed to remain
stable, so struct sigcontext may use that instead.This patch removes the usage of struct pt_regs in struct sigcontext and
makes according changes in signal.c to get the register layout right.The usp field is removed from the sigcontext structure as this information
is already contained in the user_regs_struct.Signed-off-by: Jonas Bonn

The OpenRISC Linux kernel conforms to the "generic" syscall interface which
contains only the reduced set of syscalls deemed necessary for new
architectures. Unfortunately, the uClibc port for OpenRISC does not fully
support this reduced set; as such, an additional patch available out-of-tree
needs to be applied to the kernel in order to use the current uClibc. This
is just a temporary measure until the libc port can be straightened out; it
is likely that OpenRISC will make the transition to glibc shortly where the
generic syscall interface is better supported.Signed-off-by: Jonas Bonn

This patch implements minimal PTrace support. The pt_regs structure is
not exported to userspace for OpenRISC; rather, the GETREGSET mechanism
is intended to be used and the registers, as such, exported in the core
dump format which is ABI stable. This is in line with what is intended
for new architectures as of 2.6.34 and has the advantage of permitting
the layout of the registers on the kernel stack (as per pt_regs) to be
freely modified.Signed-off-by: Jonas Bonn
