commit 124a3d88fa20e1869fc229d7d8c740cc81944264 upstream.
Newer versions of gcc warn about the use of __builtin_return_address()
with a non-zero argument when "-Wall" is specified:
kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c: In function ‘stop_critical_timings’:
kernel/trace/trace_irqsoff.c:433:86: warning: calling ‘__builtin_return_address’ with a nonzero argument is unsafe [-Wframe-address]
stop_critical_timing(CALLER_ADDR0, CALLER_ADDR1);
[ .. repeats a few times for other similar cases .. ]
It is true that a non-zero argument is somewhat dangerous, and we do not
actually have very many uses of that in the kernel - but the ftrace code
does use it, and as Stephen Rostedt says:
"We are well aware of the danger of using __builtin_return_address() of
> 0. In fact that's part of the reason for having the "thunk" code in
x86 (See arch/x86/entry/thunk_{64,32}.S). [..] it adds extra frames
when tracking irqs off sections, to prevent __builtin_return_address()
from accessing bad areas. In fact the thunk_32.S states: 'Trampoline to
trace irqs off. (otherwise CALLER_ADDR1 might crash)'."
For now, __builtin_return_address() with a non-zero argument is the best
we can do, and the warning is not helpful and can end up making people
miss other warnings for real problems.
So disable the frame-address warning on compilers that need it.

[ Upstream commit 8ae94224c9d72fc4d9aaac93b2d7833cf46d7141 ]
Debian started to build the gcc with -fPIE by default so the kernel
build ends before it starts properly with:
|kernel/bounds.c:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode
Also add to KBUILD_AFLAGS due to:
|gcc -Wp,-MD,arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/.note.o.d … -mfentry -DCC_USING_FENTRY … vdso/vdso32/note.S
|arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/note.S:1:0: sorry, unimplemented: -mfentry isn’t supported for 32-bit in combination with -fpic
Tagging it stable so it is possible to compile recent stable kernels as
well.

[ Upstream commit c9c6837d39311b0cc14cdbe7c18e815ab44aefb1 ]
gcc-6 started warning by default about variables that are not
used anywhere and that are marked 'const', generating many
false positives in an allmodconfig build, e.g.:
arch/arm/mach-davinci/board-da830-evm.c:282:20: warning: 'da830_evm_emif25_pins' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
arch/arm/plat-omap/dmtimer.c:958:34: warning: 'omap_timer_match' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
drivers/bluetooth/hci_bcm.c:625:39: warning: 'acpi_bcm_default_gpios' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
drivers/char/hw_random/omap-rng.c:92:18: warning: 'reg_map_omap4' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
drivers/devfreq/exynos/exynos5_bus.c:381:32: warning: 'exynos5_busfreq_int_pm' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
drivers/dma/mv_xor.c:1139:34: warning: 'mv_xor_dt_ids' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]
This is similar to the existing -Wunused-but-set-variable warning
that was added in an earlier release and that we disable by default
now and only enable when W=1 is set, so it makes sense to do
the same here. Once we have eliminated the majority of the
warnings for both, we can put them back into the default list.
We probably want this in backport kernels as well, to allow building
them with gcc-6 without introducing extra warnings.

[ Upstream commit c87bf431448b404a6ef5fbabd74c0e3e42157a7f ]
Enabling CONFIG_GCOV_PROFILE_ALL produces us a lot of warnings like
lib/lz4/lz4hc_compress.c: In function 'lz4_compresshcctx':
lib/lz4/lz4hc_compress.c:514:1: warning: the frame size of 1504 bytes is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]
After some investigation, I found that this behavior started with gcc-4.9,
and opened https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=69702.
A suggested workaround for it is to use the -fno-tree-loop-im
flag that turns off one of the optimization stages in gcc, so the
code runs a little slower but does not use excessive amounts
of stack.
We could make this conditional on the gcc version, but I could not
find an easy way to do this in Kbuild and the benefit would be
fairly small, given that most of the gcc version in production are
affected now.
I'm marking this for 'stable' backports because it addresses a bug
with code generation in gcc that exists in all kernel versions
with the affected gcc releases.
