Sometimes this is used to hold a simple offset, and sometimes it is used to hold a pointer. This patch changes it to a union containing void * and dma_addr_t. get/set accessors are also provided, because it was getting a bit ugly to get to the actual data.

The former is no longer really accurate with the swiotlb case now a possibility. I also move it into dma-mapping.h - it no longer needs to be in dma.c, and there are about to be some more accessors that should all end up in the same place. A comment is added to indicate that this function is not used in configs where there is no simple dma offset, such as the iommu case.

When using CONFIG_RELOCATABLE, we build the kernel as a position independent executable. The kernel then uses a little bit of relocation code to relocate itself. That code only deals with R_PPC64_RELATIVE relocations though. If for some reason you use assembly constructs such as LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE() to load the address of a symbol, you'll generate different kinds of relocations that won't be processed properly and bad things will happen. (We have 2 such bugs today). The perl script tries to filter out "known" bad ones. It's possible that we are missing some in the case of a weak function that nobody implements, we'll see if we get false positive and fix it.

Rename the locking free hvc_resize() function to __hvc_resize() and provide an inline function that locks the hvc_struct and calls __hvc_resize(). The rationale for this patch is that virtio_console calls the hvc_resize() function without locking the hvc_struct. So it needs to call the lock itself. According to naming rules, the unlocked version is renamed and prefixed with "__". References to unlocked function calls in hvc back-ends has been updated.

* remove asm/atomic.h inclusion from linux/utsname.h -- not needed after kref conversion * remove linux/utsname.h inclusion from files which do not need it NOTE: it looks like fs/binfmt_elf.c do not need utsname.h, however due to some personality stuff it _is_ needed -- cowardly leave ELF-related headers and files alone.

This reverts commit c02e3f36 ("kmod: fix race in usermodehelper code") The patch is wrong. UMH_WAIT_EXEC is called with VFORK what ensures that the child finishes prior returing back to the parent. No race. In fact, the patch makes it even worse because it does the thing it claims not do: - It calls ->complete() on UMH_WAIT_EXEC - the complete() callback may de-allocated subinfo as seen in the following call chain: [<c009f904>] (__link_path_walk+0x20/0xeb4) from [<c00a094c>] (path_walk+0x48/0x94) [<c00a094c>] (path_walk+0x48/0x94) from [<c00a0a34>] (do_path_lookup+0x24/0x4c) [<c00a0a34>] (do_path_lookup+0x24/0x4c) from [<c00a158c>] (do_filp_open+0xa4/0x83c) [<c00a158c>] (do_filp_open+0xa4/0x83c) from [<c009ba90>] (open_exec+0x24/0xe0) [<c009ba90>] (open_exec+0x24/0xe0) from [<c009bfa8>] (do_execve+0x7c/0x2e4) [<c009bfa8>] (do_execve+0x7c/0x2e4) from [<c0026a80>] (kernel_execve+0x34/0x80) [<c0026a80>] (kernel_execve+0x34/0x80) from [<c004b514>] (____call_usermodehelper+0x130/0x148) [<c004b514>] (____call_usermodehelper+0x130/0x148) from [<c0024858>] (kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8) and the path pointer was NULL. Good that ARM's kernel_execve() doesn't check the pointer for NULL or else I wouldn't notice it. The only race there might be is with UMH_NO_WAIT but it is too late for me to investigate it now. UMH_WAIT_PROC could probably also use VFORK and we could save one exec. So the only race I see is with UMH_NO_WAIT and recent scheduler changes where the child does not always run first might have trigger here something but as I said, it is late....

We're not forcing removal of the old cpu_ functions, but we might as well delete the now-unused ones. Especially CPUMASK_ALLOC and friends. I actually got a phone call (!) from a hacker who thought I had introduced them as the new cpumask API. He seemed bewildered that I had lost all taste.
