Pull ARM updates from Russell King: - Major clean-up of the L2 cache support code. The existing mess was becoming rather unmaintainable through all the additions that others have done over time. This turns it into a much nicer structure, and implements a few performance improvements as well. - Clean up some of the CP15 control register tweaks for alignment support, moving some code and data into alignment.c - DMA properties for ARM, from Santosh and reviewed by DT people. This adds DT properties to specify bus translations we can't discover automatically, and to indicate whether devices are coherent. - Hibernation support for ARM - Make ftrace work with read-only text in modules - add suspend support for PJ4B CPUs - rework interrupt masking for undefined instruction handling, which allows us to enable interrupts earlier in the handling of these exceptions. - support for big endian page tables - fix stacktrace support to exclude stacktrace functions from the trace, and add save_stack_trace_regs() implementation so that kprobes can record stack traces. - Add support for the Cortex-A17 CPU. - Remove last vestiges of ARM710 support. - Removal of ARM "meminfo" structure, finally converting us solely to memblock to handle the early memory initialisation. * 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm: (142 commits) ARM: ensure C page table setup code follows assembly code (part II) ARM: ensure C page table setup code follows assembly code ARM: consolidate last remaining open-coded alignment trap enable ARM: remove global cr_no_alignment ARM: remove CPU_CP15 conditional from alignment.c ARM: remove unused adjust_cr() function ARM: move "noalign" command line option to alignment.c ARM: provide common method to clear bits in CPU control register ARM: 8025/1: Get rid of meminfo ARM: 8060/1: mm: allow sub-architectures to override PCI I/O memory type ARM: 8066/1: correction for ARM patch 8031/2 ARM: 8049/1: ftrace/add save_stack_trace_regs() implementation ARM: 8065/1: remove last use of CONFIG_CPU_ARM710 ARM: 8062/1: Modify ldrt fixup handler to re-execute the userspace instruction ARM: 8047/1: rwsem: use asm-generic rwsem implementation ARM: l2c: trial at enabling some Cortex-A9 optimisations ARM: l2c: add warnings for stuff modifying aux_ctrl register values ARM: l2c: print a warning with L2C-310 caches if the cache size is modified ARM: l2c: remove old .set_debug method ARM: l2c: kill L2X0_AUX_CTRL_MASK before anyone else makes use of this ...

1. Remove CLONE_KERNEL, it has no users and it is dangerous. The (old) comment says "List of flags we want to share for kernel threads" but this is not true, we do not want to share ->sighand by default. This flag can only be used if the caller is sure that both parent/child will never play with signals (say, allow_signal/etc). 2. Change rest_init() to clone kernel_init() without CLONE_SIGHAND. In this case CLONE_SIGHAND does not really hurt, and it looks like optimization because copy_sighand() can avoid kmem_cache_alloc(). But in fact this only adds the minor pessimization. kernel_init() is going to exec the init process, and de_thread() will need to unshare ->sighand and do kmem_cache_alloc(sighand_cachep) anyway, but it needs to do more work and take tasklist_lock and siglock.

When a module is built into the kernel the module_init() function becomes an initcall. Sometimes debugging through dynamic debug can help, however, debugging built in kernel modules is typically done by changing the .config, recompiling, and booting the new kernel in an effort to determine exactly which module caused a problem. This patchset can be useful stand-alone or combined with initcall_debug. There are cases where some initcalls can hang the machine before the console can be flushed, which can make initcall_debug output inaccurate. Having the ability to skip initcalls can help further debugging of these scenarios. Usage: initcall_blacklist=<list of comma separated initcalls> ex) added "initcall_blacklist=sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and the log contains: blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init ... ... initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted ex) added "initcall_blacklist=foo_bar,sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and the log contains: blacklisting initcall foo_bar blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init ... ... initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted [akpm@linux-foundation.org: tweak printk text] Signed-off-by: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@redhat.com> Cc: Richard Weinberger <richard.weinberger@gmail.com> Cc: Andi Kleen <andi@firstfloor.org> Cc: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@fedoraproject.org> Cc: Rob Landley <rob@landley.net> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Pertially revert commit ea676e84 ("init/main.c: convert to pr_foo()"). Unbeknownst to me, pr_debug() is different from the other pr_foo() levels: pr_debug() is a no-op when DEBUG is not defined. Happily, init/main.c does have a #define DEBUG so we didn't break initcall_debug. But the functioning of initcall_debug should not be dependent upon the presence of that #define DEBUG.

We attempt to search for compatible strings which use a variable token in the documented name such as <chip> or <soc>. While this was attempted to be handled, it's utterly broken. The desired forms of matching are: vendor,<chip>-* vendor,name<part#>-* For <chip>, lower case characters and numbers are permitted. For <part#>, only numeric values are allowed. With this change, the number of missing compatible strings reported in arch/arm/boot/dts is reduced from 1071 to 960.
