      Merge tag 'riscv-for-linus-4.19-mw1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/riscv-linux

Pull RISC-V fixes from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "This contains a pair of fixes to the RISC-V port:

   - The removal of our compat.h, which didn't do anything.

   - Fixes to sys_riscv_flush_icache to ensure it actually shows up.

     We're going to just call this a bug in the ABI, as it was always
     supposed to be there.

  I've given these a simple build+boot test, both individually and as
  the actual tag"

      Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
 "Masami found an off by one bug in the code that keeps "notrace"
  functions from being traced by kprobes. During my testing, I found
  that there's places that we may want to add kprobes to notrace, thus
  we may end up changing this code before 4.19 is released.

  The history behind this change is that we found that adding kprobes to
  various notrace functions caused the kernel to crashed. We took the
  safe route and decided not to allow kprobes to trace any notrace
  function.

  But because notrace is added to functions that just cause weird side
  effects to the function tracer, but are still safe, preventing kprobes
  for all notrace functios may be too much of a big hammer.

  One such place is __schedule() is marked notrace, to keep function
  tracer from doing strange recursive loops when it gets traced with
  NEED_RESCHED set. With this change, one can not add kprobes to the
  scheduler.

  Masami also added code to use gcov on ftrace"

* tag 'trace-v4.19-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:
  tracing/kprobes: Fix to check notrace function with correct range
  tracing: Allow gcov profiling on only ftrace subsystem

      include/linux/compiler*.h: make compiler-*.h mutually exclusive · 815f0ddb
      Nick Desaulniers authored 
      Commit cafa0010 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6")
recently exposed a brittle part of the build for supporting non-gcc
compilers.

Both Clang and ICC define __GNUC__, __GNUC_MINOR__, and
__GNUC_PATCHLEVEL__ for quick compatibility with code bases that haven't
added compiler specific checks for __clang__ or __INTEL_COMPILER.

This is brittle, as they happened to get compatibility by posing as a
certain version of GCC.  This broke when upgrading the minimal version
of GCC required to build the kernel, to a version above what ICC and
Clang claim to be.

Rather than always including compiler-gcc.h then undefining or
redefining macros in compiler-intel.h or compiler-clang.h, let's
separate out the compiler specific macro definitions into mutually
exclusive headers, do more proper compiler detection, and keep shared
definitions in compiler_types.h.

Fixes: cafa0010 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6")
