Add description of all functions provided by Versatile Express
motherboard and daughterboards configuration controllers and
clock dependencies between devices.
Signed-off-by: Pawel Moll <pawel.moll@arm.com>

This is a platform driver for Versatile Express' "system
register" block. It's a random collection of registers providing
the following functionality:

- low level platform functions like board ID access; in order to
  use those, the driver must be initialized early, either statically
  or based on the DT

- config bus bridge via "system control" interface; as the response
  from the controller does not generate interrupt (yet), the status
  register is periodically polled using a timer

- pseudo GPIO lines providing MMC card status and Flash WP#
  signal control

- LED interface for a set of 8 LEDs on the motherboard, with
  "heartbeat", "mmc0" and "cpu0" to "cpu5" as default triggers

Versatile Express platform has an elaborated configuration system,
consisting of microcontrollers residing on the mother- and
daughterboards known as Motherboard/Daughterboard Configuration
Controller (MCC and DCC). The controllers are responsible for
the platform initialization (reset generation, flash programming,
FPGA bitfiles loading etc.) but also control clock generators,
voltage regulators, gather environmental data like temperature,
power consumption etc. Even the video output switch (FPGA) is
controlled that way.

Those devices are _not_ visible in the main address space and
the usual communication channel uses some kind of a bridge in
the peripheral block sending commands (requests) to the
controllers and receiving responses. It can take up to
500 microseconds for a transaction to be completed, therefore
it is important to provide a non-blocking interface to it.

This patch adds an abstraction of this infrastructure. Bridge
drivers can register themselves with the framework. Then,
a driver of a device can request an abstract "function" - the
request will be redirected to a bridge referred by thedd
"arm,vexpress,config-bridge" property of the device tree node.

This patch adds a DT and non-DT based implementation of
the common clock infrastructure for Versatile Express
platform. It registers (statically or using DT) all
required fixed clocks, initialises motherboard's SP810
cell (that provides clocks for SP804 timers) and
explicitly registers VE "osc" driver, to make the
clock generators available early.

On OMAP4+ platforms the functional clock for the McPDM IP is suplied by
the twl6040 codec (bit clock on the PDM bus).
This common clock driver for twl6040 will register the mcpdm_fclk clock to

available when needed.

Some of the helper functions return negative error codes if
passed a NULL clock. This can lead to confusing behavior when the
expected return value is unsigned. Fix up these accessors so that
they return unsigned values (or bool in the case of is_enabled).
This way we can't interpret NULL clocks as having valid and
interesting values.

Functions generic_file_splice_read and generic_file_splice_write access
the pagecache directly. For block devices these functions must be locked
so that block size is not changed while they are in progress.

This patch is an additional fix for commit b87570f5 ("Fix a crash
when block device is read and block size is changed at the same time")
that locked aio_read, aio_write and mmap against block size change.

Use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched / synchronize_sched
instead of rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock / synchronize_rcu.

This is an optimization. The RCU-protected region is very small, so
there will be no latency problems if we disable preempt in this region.

So we use rcu_read_lock_sched / rcu_read_unlock_sched that translates
to preempt_disable / preempt_disable. It is smaller (and supposedly
faster) than preemptible rcu_read_lock / rcu_read_unlock.

In commit 800179c9 ("This adds symlink and hardlink restrictions to
the Linux VFS"), the new link protections were enabled by default, in
the hope that no actual application would care, despite it being
technically against legacy UNIX (and documented POSIX) behavior.

However, it does turn out to break some applications.  It's rare, and
it's unfortunate, but it's unacceptable to break existing systems, so
we'll have to default to legacy behavior.

In particular, it has broken the way AFD distributes files, see

  http://www.dwd.de/AFD/

along with some legacy scripts.

Distributions can end up setting this at initrd time or in system
scripts: if you have security problems due to link attacks during your
early boot sequence, you have bigger problems than some kernel sysctl
setting. Do:

	echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_symlinks
	echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/protected_hardlinks

to re-enable the link protections.

Alternatively, we may at some point introduce a kernel config option
that sets these kinds of "more secure but not traditional" behavioural
options automatically.

Pull DMA-mapping revert from Marek Szyprowski:
 "Due to my mistake, my previous pull request (merged as commit
  cff7b8ba: "Merge branch 'fixes_for_linus' ..") contained a patch
  which is aimed for v3.8 and lacks its dependences.  This pull request
  reverts it and fixes build break of ARM architecture."

  Revert "ARM: dma-mapping: support debug_dma_mapping_error"

Pull x86 fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "This fixes a couple of nasty page table initialization bugs which were
  causing kdump regressions.  A clean rearchitecturing of the code is in
  the works - meanwhile these are reverts that restore the
  best-known-working state of the kernel.

  There's also EFI fixes and other small fixes."

Pull perf fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Most of the kernel diffstat relates to a group of Intel P6 and KNC
  (Xeon-Phi Knights Corner) PMU driver fixes, neither of which is in
  heavy use, so we took the fixes.

  The rest is diverse smallish fixes to the tooling and kernel side."
