      add HAVE_CLK to Kconfig, for driver dependencies · 9483a578
      David Brownell authored
      Flag platforms as HAVE_CLK (or not) in Kconfig, based on whether they
      support <linux/clk.h> calls, so that otherwise portable drivers which need
      those calls can list that dependency.
      
      Something like this is a prerequisite for merging the musb_hdrc driver,
      currently used on platforms including Davinci, OMAP2430, OMAP3xx ...  and
      the discrete TUSB6010 chip, which doesn't have a natural platform
      dependency.  (Used with OMAP 2420 in current Nokia N8x0 tablets.)

      hpet: clarify maintainer entry · d36e74c4
      Clemens Ladisch authored
      The existing HPET maintainer entries are somewhat unclear about which one
      applies to what part of the kernel.

      move memory_read_from_buffer() from fs.h to string.h · e108526e
      Akinobu Mita authored
      James Bottomley warns that inclusion of linux/fs.h in a low level
      driver was always a danger signal.  This patch moves
      memory_read_from_buffer() from fs.h to string.h and fixes includes in
      existing memory_read_from_buffer() users.

      i386 syscall audit fast-path · af0575bb
      Roland McGrath authored
      This adds fast paths for 32-bit syscall entry and exit when
      TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT is set, but no other kind of syscall tracing.
      These paths does not need to save and restore all registers as
      the general case of tracing does.  Avoiding the iret return path
      when syscall audit is enabled helps performance a lot.

      x86_64: remove bogus optimization in sysret_signal · 15e8f348
      Roland McGrath authored
      This short-circuit path in sysret_signal looks wrong to me.
      AFAICT, in practice the branch is never taken--and if it were,
      it would go wrong.  To wit, try loading a module whose init
      function does set_thread_flag(TIF_IRET), and see insmod crash
      (presumably with a wrong user stack pointer).
      
      This is because the FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK work hasn't been done yet
      when we jump around the call to ptregscall_common and get to
      int_with_check--where it expects the user RSP,SS,CS and EFLAGS to
      have been stored by FIXUP_TOP_OF_STACK.
      
      I don't think it's normally possible to get to sysret_signal with no
      _TIF_DO_NOTIFY_MASK bits set anyway, so these two instructions are
      already superfluous.  If it ever did happen, it is harmless to call
      do_notify_resume with nothing for it to do.
