We give up old_addr hint from the coming patch module in cases when kernel load
base has been randomized (as in such case, the coming module has no idea about
the exact randomization offset).
We are currently too pessimistic, and give up immediately as soon as
CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_BASE is set; this doesn't however directly imply that the
load base has actually been randomized. There are config options that
disable kASLR (such as hibernation), user could have disabled kaslr on
kernel command-line, etc.
The loader propagates the information whether kernel has been randomized
through bootparams. This allows us to have the condition more accurate.
On top of that, it seems unnecessary to give up old_addr hints even if
randomization is active. The relocation offset can be computed using
kaslr_ofsset(), and therefore old_addr can be adjusted accordingly.
Offset that has been chosen for kaslr during kernel decompression can be
easily computed as a difference between _text and __START_KERNEL. We are
already making use of this in dump_kernel_offset() notifier and in
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo().
Introduce kaslr_offset() that makes this computation instead of hard-coding
it, so that other kernel code (such as live patching) can make use of it.
Also convert existing users to make use of it.
This patch is equivalent transofrmation without any effects on the resulting
code:

- work from Bjorn Andersson on refactoring the configuration of

avr32: fix integer overflow in ELF_ET_DYN_BASE
Almost all arches define ELF_ET_DYN_BASE as 2/3 of TASK_SIZE.
Though it seems that some architectures do this in a wrong way.
The problem is that 2*TASK_SIZE may overflow 32-bits so
the real ELF_ET_DYN_BASE becomes wrong.
Fix this overflow by dividing TASK_SIZE prior to multiplying:

ASoC: pcm512x: Remove hardcoding of pll-lock to GPIO4
Currently GPIO4 is hardcoded to output the pll-lock signal.
Unfortunately this is after the pll-out GPIO is configured which
is selectable in the device tree. Therefore it is not possible to
use GPIO4 for pll-out. Therefore this patch removes the
configuration of GPIO4.
Signed-off-by: Howard Mitchell <hm@hmbedded.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie@kernel.org>
It added a new warning to try to encourage driver writers to set the
device capabities properly, but drivers haven't been updated and in the
meantime it just generaters a scary message that users cannot actually
do anything about.
Warnings like these are appropriate if you actually expect to fix the
code that causes them. They are not appropriate for releases.

blk-mq: initialize 'struct request' and associated data to zero
Jan Engelhardt reports a strange oops with an invalid ->sense_buffer
pointer in scsi_init_cmd_errh() with the blk-mq code.
The sense_buffer pointer should have been initialized by the call to
scsi_init_request() from blk_mq_init_rq_map(), but there seems to be
some non-repeatable memory corruptor.
This patch makes sure we initialize the whole struct request allocation
(and the associated 'struct scsi_cmnd' for the SCSI case) to zero, by
using __GFP_ZERO in the allocation. The old code initialized a couple
of individual fields, leaving the rest undefined (although many of them
are then initialized in later phases, like blk_mq_rq_ctx_init() etc.
It's not entirely clear why this matters, but it's the rigth thing to do
regardless, and with 4.0 imminent this is the defensive "let's just make
sure everything is initialized properly" patch.

ipmi/powernv: Fix minor locking bug
ipmi: Handle BMCs that don't allow clearing the rcv irq bit
perf/x86/64: Simplify regs_user->abi setting code in get_regs_user()
user_64bit_mode(regs) basically checks regs->cs to point to a
64-bit segment. This check used to be unreliable here because
regs->cs was not always correct in syscalls.
Now regs->cs is always correct: in syscalls, in interrupts, in
exceptions. No need to emply heuristics here.

If ipmi_powernv_recv(...) is called without a current message it
prints a warning and returns. However it fails to release the message
lock causing the system to dead lock during any subsequent IPMI
operations.
This error path should never normally be taken unless there are bugs
elsewhere in the system.
ipmi: Handle BMCs that don't allow clearing the rcv irq bit
Some BMCs don't let you clear the receive irq bit in the global
enables. This is kind of silly, but they give an error if you
try to clear it. Compensate for this by detecting the situation
and working around it.

In addition the standard also defines usage ids for custom fields.
The purpose of these sensors is to extend the functionality or provide a way to
obfuscate the data being communicated by a sensor. Without knowing the mapping
between the data and its encapsulated form, it is difficult for an driver to
determine what data is being communicated by the sensor. This allows some
differentiating use cases, where vendor can provide applications. Since these
can't be represented by standard sensor interfaces like IIO, we present these
as fields with
- type (input/output)
- units
- min/max
- get/set value
In addition an dev interface to transfer report events. Details about this
interface is described in /Documentation/hid/hid-sensor.txt. Manufacturers
should not use these ids for any standard sensors, otherwise the the
product/vendor id can be added to black list.

iscsi target: fix oops when adding reject pdu
This fixes a oops due to a double list add when adding a reject PDU for
iscsit_allocate_iovecs allocation failures. The cmd has already been
added to the conn_cmd_list in iscsit_setup_scsi_cmd, so this has us call
iscsit_reject_cmd.
Note that for ERL0 the reject PDU is not actually sent, so this patch
is not completely tested. Just verified we do not oops. The problem is the
add reject functions return -1 which is returned all the way up to
iscsi_target_rx_thread which for ERL0 will drop the connection.

spi: bcm2835: enabling polling mode for transfers shorter than 30us
In cases of short transfer times the CPU is spending lots of time
in the interrupt handler and scheduler to reschedule the worker thread.
Measurements show that we have times where it takes 29.32us to between
the last clock change and the time that the worker-thread is running again
returning from wait_for_completion_timeout().
During this time the interrupt-handler is running calling complete()
and then also the scheduler is rescheduling the worker thread.
This time can vary depending on how much of the code is still in
CPU-caches, when there is a burst of spi transfers the subsequent delays
are in the order of 25us, so the value of 30us seems reasonable.
With polling the whole transfer of 4 bytes at 10MHz finishes after 6.16us
(CS down to up) with the real transfer (clock running) taking 3.56us.
So the efficiency has much improved and is also freeing CPU cycles,
reducing interrupts and context switches.
Because of the above 30us seems to be a reasonable limit for polling.

spi: bcm2835: transform native-cs to gpio-cs on first spi_setup
Transforms the bcm-2835 native SPI-chip select to their gpio-cs equivalent.
This allows for some support of some optimizations that are not
possible due to HW-gliches on the CS line - especially filling
the FIFO before enabling SPI interrupts (by writing to CS register)
while the transfer is already in progress (See commit: e3a2be3030e2)
This patch also works arround some issues in bcm2835-pinctrl which does not
set the value when setting the GPIO as output - it just sets up output and
(typically) leaves the GPIO as low. When a fix for this is merged then this
gpio_set_value can get removed from bcm2835_spi_setup.
