Grzegorz Andrejczuk e16fd002af x86/cpufeature: Enable RING3MWAIT for Knights Landing
Enable ring 3 MONITOR/MWAIT for Intel Xeon Phi x200 codenamed Knights
Landing.

Presence of this feature cannot be detected automatically (by reading any
other MSR) therefore it is required to explicitly check for the family and
model of the CPU before attempting to enable it.

Heiko Carstens 89175cf766 s390: provide sclp based boot console
Use the early sclp code to provide a boot console. This boot console
is available if the kernel parameter "earlyprintk" has been specified,
just like it works for other architectures that also provide an early
boot console.

This makes debugging of early problems much easier, since now we
finally have working console output even before memory detection is
running.

The boot console will be automatically disabled as soon as another
console will be registered.

Martin Blumenstingl ec84aa0a92 tty: serial: lantiq: implement earlycon support
This allows enabling earlycon for devices with a Lantiq serial console
by splitting lqasc_serial_port_write() from lqasc_console_write() and
re-using the new function for earlycon's write callback.

The kernel-parameter name matches the driver name ("lantiq"), similar
to how other drivers implement this.

Linus Torvalds 2fd8774c79 Merge branch 'stable/for-linus-4.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/swiotlb
Pull swiotlb fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
 "This has one fix to make i915 work when using Xen SWIOTLB, and a
  feature from Geert to aid in debugging of devices that can't do DMA
  outside the 32-bit address space.

  The feature from Geert is on top of v4.10 merge window commit
  (specifically you pulling my previous branch), as his changes were
  dependent on the Documentation/ movement patches.

  I figured it would just easier than me trying than to cherry-pick the
  Documentation patches to satisfy git.

  The patches have been soaking since 12/20, albeit I updated the last
  patch due to linux-next catching an compiler error and adding an
  Tested-and-Reported-by tag"

Lv Zheng 9c4aa1eecb ACPI / sysfs: Provide quirk mechanism to prevent GPE flooding
Sometimes, the users may require a quirk to be provided from ACPI subsystem
core to prevent a GPE from flooding.
Normally, if a GPE cannot be dispatched, ACPICA core automatically prevents
the GPE from firing. But there are cases the GPE is dispatched by _Lxx/_Exx
provided via AML table, and OSPM is lacking of the knowledge to get
_Lxx/_Exx correctly executed to handle the GPE, thus the GPE flooding may
still occur.

The existing quirk mechanism can be enabled/disabled using the following
commands to prevent such kind of GPE flooding during runtime:
 # echo mask > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00
 # echo unmask > /sys/firmware/acpi/interrupts/gpe00
To avoid GPE flooding during boot, we need a boot stage mechanism.

This patch provides such a boot stage quirk mechanism to stop this kind of
GPE flooding. This patch doesn't fix any feature gap but since the new
feature gaps could be found in the future endlessly, and can disappear if
the feature gaps are filled, providing a boot parameter rather than a DMI
table should suffice.

Mimi Zohar d68a6fe9fc ima: define a canonical binary_runtime_measurements list format
The IMA binary_runtime_measurements list is currently in platform native
format.

To allow restoring a measurement list carried across kexec with a
different endianness than the targeted kernel, this patch defines
little-endian as the canonical format.  For big endian systems wanting
to save/restore the measurement list from a system with a different
endianness, a new boot command line parameter named "ima_canonical_fmt"
is defined.

Considerations: use of the "ima_canonical_fmt" boot command line option
will break existing userspace applications on big endian systems
expecting the binary_runtime_measurements list to be in platform native
format.

Geert Uytterhoeven fff5d99225 swiotlb: Add swiotlb=noforce debug option
On architectures like arm64, swiotlb is tied intimately to the core
architecture DMA support. In addition, ZONE_DMA cannot be disabled.

To aid debugging and catch devices not supporting DMA to memory outside
the 32-bit address space, add a kernel command line option
"swiotlb=noforce", which disables the use of bounce buffers.
If specified, trying to map memory that cannot be used with DMA will
fail, and a rate-limited warning will be printed.

Note that io_tlb_nslabs is set to 1, which is the minimal supported
value.
