The translation performed by virt_to_page() is only valid for linear addresses, and kernel symbols are no longer in the linear mapping. So perform the __pa() translation explicitly, which does the right thing in either case, and only then translate to a struct page offset.

This removes the relocate_initrd() implementation and invocation, which are no longer needed now that the placement of the initrd is guaranteed to be covered by the linear mapping. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

Instead of going out of our way to relocate the initrd if it turns out to occupy memory that is not covered by the linear mapping, just add the initrd to the linear mapping. This puts the burden on the bootloader to pass initrd= and mem= options that are mutually consistent. Note that, since the placement of the linear region in the PA space is also dependent on the placement of the kernel Image, which may reside anywhere in memory, we may still end up with a situation where the initrd and the kernel Image are simply too far apart to be covered by the linear region. Since we now leave it up to the bootloader to pass the initrd in memory that is guaranteed to be accessible by the kernel, add a mention of this to the arm64 boot protocol specification as well.

After choosing memstart_addr to be the highest multiple of ARM64_MEMSTART_ALIGN less than or equal to the first usable physical memory address, we clip the memblocks to the maximum size of the linear region. Since the kernel may be high up in memory, we take care not to clip the kernel itself, which means we have to clip some memory from the bottom if this occurs, to ensure that the distance between the first and the last usable physical memory address can be covered by the linear region. However, we fail to update memstart_addr if this clipping from the bottom occurs, which means that we may still end up with virtual addresses that wrap into the userland range. So increment memstart_addr as appropriate to prevent this from happening. Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

Currently, we check two pointers: cpu_ops and cpu_suspend on every idle state entry. These pointers check can be avoided: If cpu_ops has not been registered, arm_cpuidle_init() will return -EOPNOTSUPP, so arm_cpuidle_suspend() will never have chance to run. In other word, the cpu_ops check can be avoid. Similarly, the cpu_suspend check could be avoided in this hot path by moving it into arm_cpuidle_init(). I measured the 4096 * time from arm_cpuidle_suspend entry point to the cpu_psci_cpu_suspend entry point. HW platform is Marvell BG4CT STB board. 1. only one shell, no other process, hot-unplug secondary cpus, execute the following cmd while true do sleep 0.2 done before the patch: 1581220ns after the patch: 1579630ns reduced by 0.1% 2. only one shell, no other process, hot-unplug secondary cpus, execute the following cmd while true do md5sum /tmp/testfile sleep 0.2 done NOTE: the testfile size should be larger than L1+L2 cache size before the patch: 1961960ns after the patch: 1912500ns reduced by 2.5% So the more complex the system load, the bigger the improvement.

This reverts commit 1028b55b. It's broken: it makes ext4 return an error at an invalid point, causing the readdir wrappers to write the the position of the last successful directory entry into the position field, which means that the next readdir will now return that last successful entry _again_. You can only return fatal errors (that terminate the readdir directory walk) from within the filesystem readdir functions, the "normal" errors (that happen when the readdir buffer fills up, for example) happen in the iterorator where we know the position of the actual failing entry. I do have a very different patch that does the "signal_pending()" handling inside the iterator function where it is allowable, but while that one passes all the sanity checks, I screwed up something like four times while emailing it out, so I'm not going to commit it today. So my track record is not good enough, and the stars will have to align better before that one gets committed. And it would be good to get some review too, of course, since celestial alignments are always an iffy debugging model. IOW, let's just revert the commit that caused the problem for now.

Pull GPIO fixes from Linus Walleij: "Here is a set of four GPIO fixes. The two fixes to the core are serious as they are regressing minor architectures. Core fixes: - Defer GPIO device setup until after gpiolib is initialized. It turns out that a few very tightly integrated GPIO platform drivers initialize so early (befor core_initcall()) so that the gpiolib isn't even initialized itself. That limits what the library can do, and we cannot reference uninitialized fields until later. Defer some of the initialization until right after the gpiolib is initialized in these (rare) cases. - As a consequence: do not use devm_* resources when allocating the states in the initial set-up of the gpiochip. Driver fixes: - In ACPI retrieveal: ignore GpioInt when looking for output GPIOs. - Fix legacy builds on the PXA without a backing pin controller. - Use correct datatype on pca953x register writes" * tag 'gpio-v4.6-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-gpio: gpio: pca953x: Use correct u16 value for register word write gpiolib: Defer gpio device setup until after gpiolib initialization gpiolib: Do not use devm functions when registering gpio chip gpio: pxa: fix legacy non pinctrl aware builds gpio / ACPI: ignore GpioInt() GPIOs when requesting GPIO_OUT_*

Handling exceptions from modules never worked on parisc. It was just masked by the fact that exceptions from modules don't happen during normal use. When a module triggers an exception in get_user() we need to load the main kernel dp value before accessing the exception_data structure, and afterwards restore the original dp value of the module on exit.

We want to avoid the kernel module loader to create function pointers for the kernel fixup routines of get_user() and put_user(). Changing the external reference from function type to int type fixes this. This unbreaks exception handling for get_user() and put_user() when called from a kernel module.
