Pull pinctrl update from Linus Walleij: "These are the pinctrl changes for v3.10: - Patrice Chotard contributed a new configuration debugfs interface and reintroduced fine-grained locking into the core: instead of having a "big pinctrl lock" we have a per-controller lock and specialized locks for the global controller and pinctrl handle lists. - Haoijan Zhuang deleted all the PXA and MMP2 pinctrl drivers and replaced them with pinctrl-single (which is also used by other SoCs) so we are gaining consolidation. The platform particulars now come in through the device tree. - Haoijan also added support for generic pin config into the pinctrl-single driver which is another big consolidation win. - Finally also GPIO ranges are now supported by the pinctrl-single driver. - Tomasz Figa contributed a new Samsung S3C pinctrl driver, bringing more of the older Samsung platforms under the pinctrl umbrella and out of arch/arm. - Maxime Ripard contributed new Allwinner A10/A13 drivers. - Sachin Kamat, Wei Yongjun and Axel Lin did a lot of cleanups." * tag 'pinctrl-for-v3.10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl: (66 commits) pinctrl: move subsystem mutex to pinctrl_dev struct pinctrl/pinconfig: fix misplaced goto pinctrl: s3c64xx: Fix build error caused by undefined chained_irq_enter pinctrl/pinconfig: add debug interface pinctrl: abx500: fix issue when no pdata pinctrl: pinctrl-single: add missing double quote pinctrl: sunxi: Rename wemac functions to emac pinctrl: exynos5440: add gpio interrupt support pinctrl: exynos5440: fix probe failure due to missing pin-list in config nodes pinctrl: ab8505: Staticize some symbols pinctrl: ab8540: Staticize some symbols pinctrl: ab9540: Staticize some symbols pinctrl: ab8500: Staticize some symbols pinctrl: abx500: Staticize some symbols pinctrl: Add pinctrl-s3c64xx driver pinctrl: samsung: Handle banks with two configuration registers pinctrl: samsung: Remove hardcoded register offsets pinctrl: samsung: Split pin bank description into two structures pinctrl: samsung: Include pinctrl-exynos driver data conditionally pinctrl: samsung: Protect bank registers with a spinlock ...

variable_is_present() accesses '__efivars' directly, but when called via gsmi_init() Michel reports observing the following crash, BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) IP: variable_is_present+0x55/0x170 Call Trace: register_efivars+0x106/0x370 gsmi_init+0x2ad/0x3da do_one_initcall+0x3f/0x170 The reason for the crash is that '__efivars' hasn't been initialised nor has it been registered with register_efivars() by the time the google EFI SMI driver runs. The gsmi code uses its own struct efivars, and therefore, a different variable list. Fix the above crash by passing the registered struct efivars to variable_is_present(), so that we traverse the correct list.

This mutex avoids deadlock in case of use of multiple pin controllers. Before this modification, by using a global mutex, deadlock appeared when, for example, a call to pinctrl_pins_show() locked the pinctrl_mutex, called the ops->pin_dbg_show of a particular pin controller. If this pin controller needs I2C access to retrieve configuration information and I2C driver is using pinctrl to drive its pins, a call to pinctrl_select_state() try to lock again pinctrl_mutex which leads to a deadlock. Notice that the mutex grab from the two direction functions was moved into pinctrl_gpio_direction(). For several cases, we can't replace pinctrl_mutex by pctldev->mutex, because at this stage, pctldev is not accessible : - pinctrl_get()/pinctrl_put() - pinctrl_register_maps() So add respectively pinctrl_list_mutex and pinctrl_maps_mutex in order to protect pinctrl_list and pinctrl_maps list instead. Reintroduce pinctrldev_list_mutex in find_pinctrl_by_of_node(), pinctrl_find_and_add_gpio_range() pinctrl_request_gpio(), pinctrl_free_gpio(), pinctrl_gpio_direction(), pinctrl_devices_show(), pinctrl_register() and pinctrl_unregister() to protect pinctrldev_list. Changes v2->v3: - Fix a missing EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL() for pinctrl_select_state(). Changes v1->v2: - pinctrl_select_state_locked() is removed, all lock mechanism is located inside pinctrl_select_state(). When parsing the state->setting list, take the per-pin-controller driver lock. (Patrice). - Introduce pinctrldev_list_mutex to protect pinctrldev_list in all functions which parse or modify pictrldev_list. (Patrice). - move find_pinctrl_by_of_node() from pinctrl/devicetree.c to pinctrl/core.c in order to protect pinctrldev_list. (Patrice). - Sink mutex:es into some functions and remove some _locked variants down to where the lists are actually accessed to make things simpler. (Linus) - Drop *all* mutexes completely from pinctrl_lookup_state() and pinctrl_select_state() - no relevant mutex was taken and it was unclear what this was protecting against.

In commit b0de59b5 ("TTY: do not update atime/mtime on read/write") we removed timestamps from tty inodes to fix a security issue and waited if something breaks. Well, 'w', the utility to find out logged users and their inactivity time broke. It shows that users are inactive since the time they logged in. To revert to the old behaviour while still preventing attackers to guess the password length, we update the timestamps in one-minute intervals by this patch.

The pci config space accessors on s390 are (now) smart enough to figure out if a pci function is available. So instead of calling pci_create_root_bus and then pci_scan_single_device for each available function just call pci_scan_root_bus and let the pci core do the scanning (via config reads on all possible functions) and device creation.

In case a machine supports memory hotplug all active memory increments present at IPL time have been initialized with a "usecount" of 1. This is wrong if the memory increment size is larger than the memory section size of the memory hotplug code. If that is the case the usecount must be initialized with the number of memory sections that fit into one memory increment. Otherwise it is possible to put a memory increment into standby state even if there are still active sections. Afterwards addressing exceptions might happen which cause the kernel to panic. However even worse, if a memory increment was put into standby state and afterwards into active state again, it's contents would have been zeroed, leading to memory corruption. This was only an issue for machines that support standby memory and have at least 256GB memory. This is broken since commit fdb1bb15 "[S390] sclp/memory hotplug: fix initial usecount of increments".

User applications running on SMP kernels have long suffered from instability and random segmentation faults. This patch improves the situation although there is more work to be done. One of the problems is the various routines in pgtable.h that update page table entries use different locking mechanisms, or no lock at all (set_pte_at). This change modifies the routines to all use the same lock pa_dbit_lock. This lock is used for dirty bit updates in the interruption code. The patch also purges the TLB entries associated with the PTE to ensure that inconsistent values are not used after the page table entry is updated. The UP and SMP code are now identical. The change also includes a minor update to the purge_tlb_entries function in cache.c to improve its efficiency.

CONFIG_MLONGCALLS was introduced in commit ec758f98 to overcome linker issues when linking huge linux kernels, e.g. with many modules linked in. But in the kernel module loader there is no support yet for the new relocation types, which is why modules built with -mlong-calls can't be loaded. Furthermore, for modules long calls are not really necessary, since we already use stub sections which resolve long distance calls. So, let's just disable this compiler option when compiling kernel modules. Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de>

When targetting 32-bit processors, __put_user emits a pair of stw instructions for the 8-byte case. If the type of __val is a pointer, the marshalling code casts it to the wider integer type of u64, resulting in the following compiler warnings: kernel/signal.c: In function 'copy_siginfo_to_user': kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast] kernel/signal.c:2752:11: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast] [...] This patch fixes the warnings by removing the marshalling code and using the correct output modifiers in the __put_{user,kernel}_asm64 macros so that GCC will allocate the right registers without the need to extract the two words explicitly.

Change kunmap macro to static inline function to fix build error compiling drivers/base/dma-buf.c. Without the change, the following error can occur: CC drivers/base/dma-buf.o drivers/base/dma-buf.c: In function 'dma_buf_kunmap': drivers/base/dma-buf.c:427:46: error: macro "kunmap" passed 3 arguments, but takes just 1 I believe parisc is the only arch to implement kunmap using a macro.
