Pull Sparc updates from David S. Miller:
1) Remove the idiotic situation wherein Leon was a special case in all
of the TLB/cache handling code.
The worst side effect of this bogosity is that you couldn't build a
kernel with Leon support enabled (to get better build coverage), and
test boot it on a non-LEON cpu.
Leon is, in all core respects, programatically identical to the
32-bit SRMMU. Except that they put the TLB registers in a different
alternate address space location.
Through code patching (for fast paths) and run time checks, this
issue is now a thing of the past.
From Sam Ravnborg.
2) There was a mis-merge of arch/sparc/Kconfig for one of the
clockevents changes that went in, causing 32-bit sparc to start
failing to build.
I merged in your tree to get those clockevents changes (and added a
note to the merge commit) then added Stephen Rothwell's fix for the
merge error.
3) Software quad floating point emulation was not working properly on
more recent Niagara chips, because the way the situation is reported
by the cpu has changed.
Nobody noticed because gcc emits calls to software emulation
routines in glibc.

Function pat_pagerange_is_ram() scales poorly to large address
ranges, because it probes the resource tree for each page.
On a 2.6 GHz Opteron, this function consumes 34 ms for a 1 GB range.
It is called twice during untrack_pfn_vma(), slowing process
cleanup and handicapping the OOM killer.
This replacement consumes less than 1ms, under the same conditions.

On s390 access_ok is a macro which discards all parameters and always
returns 1. This can result in compile warnings which warn about unused
variables like this:
fs/read_write.c: In function 'rw_copy_check_uvector':
fs/read_write.c:684:16: warning: unused variable 'buf' [-Wunused-variable]
Fix this by adding a __range_ok() function which consumes all parameters
but still always returns 1.

For 1 and 2 byte operands for xchg and cmpxchg the old and new values
get or'ed into the larger 4 byte old value before the compare and swap
instruction gets executed. This is done without using the proper byte
mask before or'ing the values.
If the caller passed in negative old or new values these got sign
extended by the caller. Which in turn means that either the old value
never matches, or, even worse, unrelated bytes would be changed in memory.
Luckily there don't seem to be any callers around yet, since that would
have resulted in the specification exception fixed in an earlies patch.

When accessing a 1 or 2 byte memory operand we cannot use the
passed address since the compare and swap instruction only works
for 4 byte aligned memory operands.
Hence we calculate an aligned address so that compare and swap works
correctly. However we don't pass the calculated address to the inline
assembly. This results in incorrect memory accesses and in a
specification exception if used on non 4 byte aligned memory operands.
Since this didn't happen until now, there don't seem to be
too many users of cmpxchg on unaligned addresses.

The cmpxchg macros and functions are a bit different than on other
architectures. In particular the macros do not store the return
value of a __cmpxchg function call in a variable before returning the
value.
This causes compile warnings that only occur on s390 like this one:
net/ipv4/af_inet.c: In function 'build_ehash_secret':
net/ipv4/af_inet.c:241:2: warning: value computed is not used [-Wunused-value]
To get rid of these warnings use the same construct that we already use
for the xchg macro, which was introduced for the same reason.

It has been a big mistage to add the capabilities attribute to the
cpus in sysfs:
First the attribute only contains the cpu capability of primary cpus,
which however is not necessarily (or better: unlikely) the type of
cpu the kernel runs on, which is typically an IFL.
In addition all information that is necessary is available in
/proc/sysinfo already. So this attribute partially duplicated
informations.
So programs should look into the sysinfo file to retrieve all
informations they are interested in.
Since with this kernel release also the powersavings cpu attributes
are removed this seems to be a good opportunity to remove another
broken interface.

If the IPL CPU is offline, currently the pcpu_delegate() function
used by smp_call_ipl_cpu() does not work because pcpu_delegate()
modifies the lowcore of the target CPU. In case of an offline
IPL CPU currently the prefix register is zero but pcpu->lowcore
still points to the old prefix page. Therefore the lowcore changes
done by pcpu_delegate() have no effect.
With this fix pcpu_delegate() now uses memcpy_absolute() and therefore
also prepares the absolute zero lowcore if the target CPU has prefix
register zero.

This patch introduces the new function memcpy_absolute() that allows to
copy memory using absolute addressing. This means that the prefix swap
does not apply when this function is used.
With this patch also all s390 kernel code that accesses absolute zero
now uses the new memcpy_absolute() function. The old and less generic
copy_to_absolute_zero() function is removed.

Pull x86 trampoline rework from H. Peter Anvin:

that need to live in the first megabyte of memory, most but not all of
which runs in real mode at some point) in the kernel into a single

place in the kernel where we needed pages to be mapped RWX. This code
separates all that code into proper R/RW/RX pages."

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle:
"The whole series has been sitting in -next for quite a while with no
complaints. The last change to the series was before the weekend the
removal of an SPI patch which Grant - even though previously acked by
himself - appeared to raise objections. So I removed it until the
situation is clarified. Other than that all the patches have the acks
from their respective maintainers, all MIPS and x86 defconfigs are
building fine and I'm not aware of any problems introduced by this
series.
Among the key features for this patch series is a sizable patchset for
Lantiq which among other things introduces support for Lantiq's
flagship product, the FALCON SOC. It also means that the opensource
developers behind this patchset have overtaken Lantiq's competing
inhouse development team that was working behind closed doors.
Less noteworthy the ath79 patchset which adds support for a few more
chip variants, cleanups and fixes. Finally the usual dose of tweaking
of generic code."

This should be a longstanding bug affecting x86 32bit PAE without THP.
Only archs with 64bit large pmd_t and 32bit unsigned long should be
affected.
With THP enabled the barrier() in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
would partly hide the bug when the pmd transition from none to stable,
by forcing a re-read of the *pmd in pmd_offset_map_lock, but when THP is
enabled a new set of problem arises by the fact could then transition
freely in any of the none, pmd_trans_huge or pmd_trans_stable states.
So making the barrier in pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad()
unconditional isn't good idea and it would be a flakey solution.
This should be fully fixed by introducing a pmd_read_atomic that reads
the pmd in order with THP disabled, or by reading the pmd atomically
with cmpxchg8b with THP enabled.
Luckily this new race condition only triggers in the places that must
already be covered by pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() so the fix
is localized there but this bug is not related to THP.
NOTE: this can trigger on x86 32bit systems with PAE enabled with more
than 4G of ram, otherwise the high part of the pmd will never risk to be
truncated because it would be zero at all times, in turn so hiding the
SMP race.
This bug was discovered and fully debugged by Ulrich, quote:
----
[..]
pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad() loads the content of edx and
eax.
496 static inline int pmd_none_or_trans_huge_or_clear_bad(pmd_t
*pmd)
497 {
498 /* depend on compiler for an atomic pmd read */
499 pmd_t pmdval = *pmd;
// edi = pmd pointer
0xc0507a74 <sys_mincore+548>: mov 0x8(%esp),%edi
...
// edx = PTE page table high address
0xc0507a84 <sys_mincore+564>: mov 0x4(%edi),%edx
...
// eax = PTE page table low address
0xc0507a8e <sys_mincore+574>: mov (%edi),%eax
[..]
Please note that the PMD is not read atomically. These are two "mov"
instructions where the high order bits of the PMD entry are fetched
first. Hence, the above machine code is prone to the following race.
- The PMD entry {high|low} is 0x0000000000000000.
The "mov" at 0xc0507a84 loads 0x00000000 into edx.
- A page fault (on another CPU) sneaks in between the two "mov"
instructions and instantiates the PMD.
- The PMD entry {high|low} is now 0x00000003fda38067.
The "mov" at 0xc0507a8e loads 0xfda38067 into eax.

head_32.S failed to set cputypval for leon, causing boot to fail.
The boot failed because we failed to recognize this was a LEON
cpu so we did not preoperly run-time patch the the kernel.
This resulted in an early crash.
