There's only a single caller of vexpress_config_set_master() from vexpress-sysreg.c. Let's just make the registers needed available to vexpress-config and move all the code there. The registers needed aren't used anywhere else either. With this, we can get rid of the private API between these 2 drivers.

The vexpress-config initialization is dependent on the vexpress-syscfg driver probing. As vexpress-config was not a driver, deferred probe could not be used and instead initcall ordering was relied upon. This is fragile and doesn't work for modules. Let's move the config bus init into the vexpress-syscfg probe. This eliminates the initcall ordering requirement and the need to create a struct device and the "vexpress-config" class.

The only thing that vexpress-syscfg does is provide a regmap to vexpress-config bus child devices. There's little reason to have 2 components for this. The current structure with initcall ordering requirements makes turning these components into modules more difficult. So let's start to simplify things and merge vexpress-syscfg into vexpress-config. There's no functional change in this commit and it's still separate components until subsequent commits.

The "sys_id", "sys_misc" and "sys_procid" devices don't have a user anywhere in the tree and do nothing more than create a syscon regmap for a single register or 2. That's an overkill for creating child devices. Let's just remove them.

Nothing in the VExpress sysregs nor the MFD child drivers use CONFIG_CLKSRC_MMIO. There's the 24MHz counter, but that's handled by drivers/clocksource/timer-versatile.c which doesn't use CONFIG_CLKSRC_MMIO either. So let's just drop CONFIG_CLKSRC_MMIO. As the !ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET dependency was added for CONFIG_CLKSRC_MMIO, that can be dropped, too.

CONFIG_COMMON_CLK_VERSATILE doesn't really do anything other than hiding Arm Ltd reference platform clock drivers. It is both selected by the platforms that need it and has a 'depends on' for those platforms. Let's drop the selects and convert CONFIG_COMMON_CLK_VERSATILE into a menuconfig entry. With this make CONFIG_ICST visible. Move the 'select REGMAP_MMIO' to the drivers that require it (SP810 did not). This also has the side effect of enabling CONFIG_ICST for COMPILE_TEST as it was not visible before.

If amba bus devices defer when adding, the amba bus code simply retries adding the devices every 5 seconds. This doesn't work well as it completely unsynchronized with starting the init process which can happen in less than 5 secs. Add a retry during late_initcall. If the amba devices are added, then deferred probe takes over. If the dependencies have not probed at this point, then there's no improvement over previous behavior. To completely solve this, we'd need to retry after every successful probe as deferred probe does. The list_empty() check now happens outside the mutex, but the mutex wasn't necessary in the first place. This needed to use deferred probe instead of fragile initcall ordering on 32-bit VExpress systems where the apb_pclk has a number of probe dependencies (vexpress-sysregs, vexpress-config).

vexpress_flags_set() is only used by the platform SMP related code and has nothing to do with the vexpress-sysreg MFD driver other than both access the same h/w block. It's also only needed for 32-bit systems and must be built-in for them. Let's move vexpress_flags_set() closer to where it is being used. This will allow for vexpress-sysreg to be built as a module.

When remapping a mapping where a portion of a VMA is remapped into another portion of the VMA it can cause the VMA to become split. During the copy_vma operation the VMA can actually be remerged if it's an anonymous VMA whose pages have not yet been faulted. This isn't normally a problem because at the end of the remap the original portion is unmapped causing it to become split again. However, MREMAP_DONTUNMAP leaves that original portion in place which means that the VMA which was split and then remerged is not actually split at the end of the mremap. This patch fixes a bug where we don't detect that the VMAs got remerged and we end up putting back VM_ACCOUNT on the next mapping which is completely unreleated. When that next mapping is unmapped it results in incorrectly unaccounting for the memory which was never accounted, and eventually we will underflow on the memory comittment. There is also another issue which is similar, we're currently accouting for the number of pages in the new_vma but that's wrong. We need to account for the length of the remap operation as that's all that is being added. If there was a mapping already at that location its comittment would have been adjusted as part of the munmap at the start of the mremap. A really simple repro can be seen in: https://gist.github.com/bgaff/e101ce99da7d9a8c60acc641d07f312c Fixes: e346b381 ("mm/mremap: add MREMAP_DONTUNMAP to mremap()") Reported-by: syzbot <syzkaller@googlegroups.com> Signed-off-by: Brian Geffon <bgeffon@google.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
