Tony Breeds aa3be5f32d [POWERPC] Implement {read,update}_persistent_clock
With these functions implemented we cooperate better with the generic

Ed Swarthout df174e3be8 [POWERPC] Add memory regions to the kcore list for 32-bit machines
The entries are only 32-bit, so restrict the virtual address to stay
below 0xffff_ffff.  With KERNELBASE set to 0xc000_0000, this in effect
restricts access to the first 1GB of real memory.

Make setup_kcore conditional on CONFIG_PROC_KCORE for both 32/64.

Move out the old-style exception parsers to a separate function, and

It would make sense to move out the generic versions into their platforms

Michael Ellerman d385366a9b [POWERPC] Simplify rtas_change_msi() error semantics
Currently rtas_change_msi() returns either the error code from RTAS, or if
the RTAS call succeeded the number of irqs that were configured by RTAS.
This makes checking the return value more complicated than it needs to be.

Instead, have rtas_change_msi() check that the number of irqs configured by
RTAS is equal to what we requested - and return an error otherwise. This makes
the return semantics match the usual 0 for success, something else for error.

Linas Vepstas a7fb7ea76e [POWERPC] pseries: device node status can be "ok" or "okay"
It seems that some versions of firmware will report a device
node status as the string "okay". As we are not expecting this
string, the device node will be ignored by the EEH subsystem.
Which means EEH will not be enabled.

When EEH is not enabled, PCI errors will be converted into
Machine Check exceptions, and we'll have a very unhappy system.

Satyam Sharma 8fd7675c09 [POWERPC] Avoid pointless WARN_ON(irqs_disabled()) from panic codepath
> ------------[ cut here ]------------
> Badness at arch/powerpc/kernel/smp.c:202

comes when smp_call_function_map() has been called with irqs disabled,
which is illegal. However, there is a special case, the panic() codepath,
when we do not want to warn about this -- warning at that time is pointless
anyway, and only serves to scroll away the *real* cause of the panic and
distracts from the real bug.

* So let's extract the WARN_ON() from smp_call_function_map() into all its
  callers -- smp_call_function() and smp_call_function_single()

* Also, introduce another caller of smp_call_function_map(), namely
  __smp_call_function() (and make smp_call_function() a wrapper over this)
  which does *not* warn about disabled irqs

* Use this __smp_call_function() from the panic codepath's smp_send_stop()

We also end having to move code of smp_send_stop() below the definition
of __smp_call_function().

Aristeu Rozanski 555ddbb4e2 [POWERPC] adbhid: Enable KEY_FN key reporting
When a Fn key is used in combination with another key in ADB keyboards
it will generate a Fn event and then a second event that can be a
different key than pressed (Fn + F1 for instance can generate Fn +
brightness down if it's configured like that).  This enables the
reporting of the Fn key to the input system.

As Fn is a dead key for most purposes, it's useful to report it so
applications can make use of it.  One example is apple_mouse
(https://jake.ruivo.org/uinputd/trunk/apple_mouse/) that emulates the
second and third keys using a combination of keyboard keys and the mouse
button.  Other applications may use the KEY_FN as a modifier as well.
I've been updating and using this patch for months without problems.

David Gibson c4d5e37547 [POWERPC] Cleanups for physmap_of.c (v2)
This patch includes a whole batch of smallish cleanups for
drivers/mtd/physmap_of.c.

	- A bunch of uneeded #includes are removed
	- We switch to the modern linux/of.h etc. in place of
asm/prom.h
	- Use some helper macros to avoid some ugly inline #ifdefs
	- A few lines of unreachable code are removed
	- A number of indentation / line-wrapping fixes
	- More consistent use of kernel idioms such as if (!p) instead
of if (p == NULL)
	- Clarify some printk()s and other informative strings.
	- parse_obsolete_partitions() now returns 0 if no partition
information is found, instead of returning -ENOENT which the caller
had to handle specially.
	- (the big one) Despite the name, this driver really has
nothing to do with drivers/mtd/physmap.c.  The fact that the flash
chips must be physically direct mapped is a constrant, but doesn't
really say anything about the actual purpose of this driver, which is
to instantiate MTD devices based on information from the device tree.
Therefore the physmap name is replaced everywhere within the file with
"of_flash".  The file itself and the Kconfig option is not renamed for
now (so that the diff is actually a diff).  That can come later.

Linus Torvalds dbe3ed1c07 x86-64: page faults from user mode are always user faults
Randy Dunlap noticed an interesting "crashme" behaviour on his dual
Prescott Xeon setup, where he gets page faults with the error code
having a zero "user" bit, but the register state points back to user
mode.

This may be a CPU microcode buglet triggered by some strange instruction
pattern that crashme generates, and loading a microcode update seems to
possibly have fixed it.

Regardless, we really should trust the register state more than the
error code, since it's really the register state that determines whether
we can actually send a signal, or whether we're in kernel mode and need
to oops/kill the process in the case of a page fault.

Dmitry Torokhov 4f01a757e7 Driver core: fix deprectated sysfs structure for nested class devices
Nested class devices used to have 'device' symlink point to a real
(physical) device instead of a parent class device.  When converting
subsystems to struct device we need to keep doing what class devices did if
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED is Y, otherwise parts of udev break.

Jeff Dike 508a92741a uml: fix irqstack crash
This patch fixes a crash caused by an interrupt coming in when an IRQ stack
is being torn down.  When this happens, handle_signal will loop, setting up
the IRQ stack again because the tearing down had finished, and handling
whatever signals had come in.

However, to_irq_stack returns a mask of pending signals to be handled, plus
bit zero is set if the IRQ stack was already active, and thus shouldn't be
torn down.  This causes a problem because when handle_signal goes around
the loop, sig will be zero, and to_irq_stack will duly set bit zero in the
returned mask, faking handle_signal into believing that it shouldn't tear
down the IRQ stack and return thread_info pointers back to their original
values.

This will eventually cause a crash, as the IRQ stack thread_info will
continue pointing to the original task_struct and an interrupt will look
into it after it has been freed.

The fix is to stop passing a signal number into to_irq_stack.  Rather, the
pending signals mask is initialized beforehand with the bit for sig already
set.  References to sig in to_irq_stack can be replaced with references to
the mask.
