      Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
       "The largest thing in this set of changes is bringing back some of the
        ARMv3 code to fix a compile problem noticed on RiscPC, which we still
        support, even though we only support ARMv4 there.
      
        (The reason is that the system bus doesn't support ARMv4 half-word
        accesses, so we need the ARMv3 library code for this platform.)
      
        The rest are all quite minor fixes."

      x32: Use compat shims for {g,s}etsockopt · 515c7af8
      Mike Frysinger authored
      Some of the arguments to {g,s}etsockopt are passed in userland pointers.
      If we try to use the 64bit entry point, we end up sometimes failing.
      
      For example, dhcpcd doesn't run in x32:
      	# dhcpcd eth0
      	dhcpcd[1979]: version 5.5.6 starting
      	dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: broadcasting for a lease
      	dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: open_socket: Invalid argument
      	dhcpcd[1979]: eth0: send_raw_packet: Bad file descriptor
      
      The code in particular is getting back EINVAL when doing:
      	struct sock_fprog pf;
      	setsockopt(s, SOL_SOCKET, SO_ATTACH_FILTER, &pf, sizeof(pf));
      
      Diving into the kernel code, we can see:
      include/linux/filter.h:
      	struct sock_fprog {
      		unsigned short len;
      		struct sock_filter __user *filter;
      	};
      
      net/core/sock.c:
      	case SO_ATTACH_FILTER:
      		ret = -EINVAL;
      		if (optlen == sizeof(struct sock_fprog)) {
      			struct sock_fprog fprog;
      
      			ret = -EFAULT;
      			if (copy_from_user(&fprog, optval, sizeof(fprog)))
      				break;
      
      			ret = sk_attach_filter(&fprog, sk);
      		}
      		break;
      
      arch/x86/syscalls/syscall_64.tbl:
      	54 common setsockopt sys_setsockopt
      	55 common getsockopt sys_getsockopt
      
      So for x64, sizeof(sock_fprog) is 16 bytes.  For x86/x32, it's 8 bytes.
      This comes down to the pointer being 32bit for x32, which means we need
      to do structure size translation.  But since x32 comes in directly to
      sys_setsockopt, it doesn't get translated like x86.
      
      After changing the syscall table and rebuilding glibc with the new kernel
      headers, dhcp runs fine in an x32 userland.
      
      Oddly, it seems like Linus noted the same thing during the initial port,
      but I guess that was missed/lost along the way:

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull vfs fixes from Miklos Szeredi.
      
      This mainly fixes some confusion about whether the open 'mode' variable
      passed around should contain the full file type (S_IFREG etc)
      information or just the permission mode.  In particular, the lack of
      proper file type information had confused fuse.

        vfs: fix propagation of atomic_open create error on negative dentry
