Since the driver is now calling machine_halt() that is not exported, it has to be built in the kernel. Building it as a module will fail at linking time. Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@free-electrons.com>

This commit removes two things: - The platform_device that corresponds to the RTC driver, since we now probe this driver from devicetree; - The platform power-off code, since all the jz4740-based platforms are now using the jz4740-rtc driver as the system power controller.

Since we already have a devicetree node for the jz4740-rtc driver, we don't have to probe it from platform code. Besides, using the jz4740-rtc driver as the power controller for the qi_lb60 platform allows us to remove the jz4740 platform power-off code, since this is the only jz4740-based board upstream.

The 'system-power-controller' singleton entry can be used in the devicetree node of the jz4740-rtc driver to specify that the driver is granted the right to power off the system through the registers of the RTC unit.

The RTC unit present in the JZ4780 works mostly the same as the one in the JZ4740. The major difference is that register writes need to be explicitly enabled, by writing a magic code (0xA55A) to a "write enable" register before each access.

Some platforms allows to specify the month and day of the month in which an alarm should go off, some others the day of the month and some others just the time. Currently any given value is accepted by the driver and only the supported fields are used to program the hardware. As consequence, alarms are potentially programmed to go off in the wrong moment. Fix this by rejecting any unsupported value. Signed-off-by: Gabriele Mazzotta <gabriele.mzt@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@free-electrons.com>

Change thaw_super() to check frozen != SB_FREEZE_COMPLETE rather than frozen == SB_UNFROZEN, otherwise it can race with freeze_super() which drops sb->s_umount after SB_FREEZE_WRITE to preserve the lock ordering. In this case thaw_super() will wrongly call s_op->unfreeze_fs() before it was actually frozen, and call sb_freeze_unlock() which leads to the unbalanced percpu_up_write(). Unfortunately lockdep can't detect this, so this triggers misc BUG_ON()'s in kernel/rcu/sync.c.

Both import_iovec() and rw_copy_check_uvector() take an array (typically small and on-stack) which is used to hold an iovec array copy from userspace. This is to avoid an expensive memory allocation in the fast path (i.e. few iovec elements). The caller may have to check whether these functions actually used the provided buffer or allocated a new one -- but this differs between the too. Let's just add a kernel doc to clarify what the semantics are for each function. Signed-off-by: Vegard Nossum <vegard.nossum@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Pull kbuild updates from Michal Marek: - EXPORT_SYMBOL for asm source by Al Viro. This does bring a regression, because genksyms no longer generates checksums for these symbols (CONFIG_MODVERSIONS). Nick Piggin is working on a patch to fix this. Plus, we are talking about functions like strcpy(), which rarely change prototypes. - Fixes for PPC fallout of the above by Stephen Rothwell and Nick Piggin - fixdep speedup by Alexey Dobriyan. - preparatory work by Nick Piggin to allow architectures to build with -ffunction-sections, -fdata-sections and --gc-sections - CONFIG_THIN_ARCHIVES support by Stephen Rothwell - fix for filenames with colons in the initramfs source by me. * 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild: (22 commits) initramfs: Escape colons in depfile ppc: there is no clear_pages to export powerpc/64: whitelist unresolved modversions CRCs kbuild: -ffunction-sections fix for archs with conflicting sections kbuild: add arch specific post-link Makefile kbuild: allow archs to select link dead code/data elimination kbuild: allow architectures to use thin archives instead of ld -r kbuild: Regenerate genksyms lexer kbuild: genksyms fix for typeof handling fixdep: faster CONFIG_ search ia64: move exports to definitions sparc32: debride memcpy.S a bit [sparc] unify 32bit and 64bit string.h sparc: move exports to definitions ppc: move exports to definitions arm: move exports to definitions s390: move exports to definitions m68k: move exports to definitions alpha: move exports to actual definitions x86: move exports to actual definitions ...

Pull rdma qedr RoCE driver from Doug Ledford: "Early on in the merge window I mentioned I had a backlog of new drivers waiting to be reviewed and that, in addition to the hns-roce driver, I wanted to get possible a couple more reviewed. I ended up only having the time to complete one of the additional drivers. During Dave Miller's pull request this go around, there were a series of 9 patches to the QLogic qed net driver that add basic support for a paired RoCE driver. That support is currently not functional because it is missing the matching RoCE driver in the RDMA subsystem. I managed to finish that review. However, because it goes against part of Dave's net pull, and a part that was accepted a day or two after the merge window opened, to apply cleanly it has to be applied to either the tip of Dave's net branch, or as I did in this case, I just applied it to your master after you had taken Dave's pull request." * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dledford/rdma: qedr: Add events support and register IB device qedr: Add GSI support qedr: Add LL2 RoCE interface qedr: Add support for data path qedr: Add support for memory registeration verbs qedr: Add support for QP verbs qedr: Add support for PD,PKEY and CQ verbs qedr: Add support for user context verbs qedr: Add support for RoCE HW init qedr: Add RoCE driver framework

Pull more rdma updates from Doug Ledford: "This merge window was the first where Huawei had to try and coordinate their patches between their net driver and their new roce driver (similar to mlx4 and mlx5). They didn't do horribly, but there were some issues (and we knew that because they simply didn't know what to do in the beginning). As a result, I had a set of patches that depended on some patches that normally would have come to you via Dave's tree. Those patches have been on netdev@ for a while, so I got Dave to give me his approval to send them to you. As such, the other 29 patches I had behind them are also now ready to go. This catches the hns and hns-roce drivers up to current, and for future patches we are working with them to get them up to speed on how to do joint driver development so that they don't have these sorts of cross tree dependency issues again. BTW, Dave gave me permission to add his Acked-by: to the patches against the net tree, but I've had this branch through 0day (but not linux-next since it was off by itself) and I didn't want to rebase the series just to add Dave's ack for the 8 patches in the net area.
