446c92b290 [ARM] 5421/1: ftrace: fix crash due to tracing of __naked functions
This is a fix for the following crash observed in 2.6.29-rc3:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/1/29/150

On ARM it doesn't make sense to trace a naked function because then
mcount is called without stack and frame pointer being set up and there
is no chance to restore the lr register to the value before mcount was
called.

d4cc510c61 [ARM] 5418/1: restore lr before leaving mcount
gcc seems to expect that lr isn't clobbered by mcount, because for a
function starting with:

	static int func(void)
	{
		void *ra = __builtin_return_address(0);

		printk(KERN_EMERG "__builtin_return_address(0) = %pS\n", ra)

		...

the following assembler is generated by gcc 4.3.2:

	   0:   e1a0c00d        mov     ip, sp
	   4:   e92dd810        push    {r4, fp, ip, lr, pc}
	   8:   e24cb004        sub     fp, ip, #4      ; 0x4
	   c:   ebfffffe        bl      0 <mcount>
	  10:   e59f0034        ldr     r0, [pc, #52]
	  14:   e1a0100e        mov     r1, lr
	  18:   ebfffffe        bl      0 <printk>

Without this patch obviously __builtin_return_address(0) yields
func+0x10 instead of the return address of the caller.

Note this patch fixes a similar issue for the routines used with dynamic
ftrace even though this isn't currently selectable for ARM.

b57ee99fab [ARM] 5417/1: Set the correct cacheid for ARMv6 CPUs with ARMv7 style MMU
The cacheid_init() function assumes that if cpu_architecture() returns
7, the caches are VIPT_NONALIASING. The cpu_architecture() function
returns the version of the supported MMU features (e.g. TEX remapping)
but it doesn't make any assumptions about the cache type. The patch adds
the checking of the Cache Type Register for the ARMv7 format.

0de26520c7 cpumask: make irq_set_affinity() take a const struct cpumask
Impact: change existing irq_chip API

Not much point with gentle transition here: the struct irq_chip's
setaffinity method signature needs to change.

Fortunately, not widely used code, but hits a few architectures.

Note: In irq_select_affinity() I save a temporary in by mangling
irq_desc[irq].affinity directly.  Ingo, does this break anything?

98a79d6a50 cpumask: centralize cpu_online_map and cpu_possible_map
Impact: cleanup

Each SMP arch defines these themselves.  Move them to a central
location.

Twists:
1) Some archs (m32, parisc, s390) set possible_map to all 1, so we add a
   CONFIG_INIT_ALL_POSSIBLE for this rather than break them.

2) mips and sparc32 '#define cpu_possible_map phys_cpu_present_map'.
   Those archs simply have phys_cpu_present_map replaced everywhere.

3) Alpha defined cpu_possible_map to cpu_present_map; this is tricky
   so I just manipulate them both in sync.

4) IA64, cris and m32r have gratuitous 'extern cpumask_t cpu_possible_map'
   declarations.

Unfortunately, everyone else calls it MODULES_VADDR and MODULES_END.
Update ARM to use the same naming, so is_vmalloc_or_module_addr()
can work properly.  Also update the comment on mm/vmalloc.c to

2.6.28-rc tightened up the ELF architecture checks on ARM.  For
non-EABI it only allows VFP if the hardware supports it.  However,
the kernel fails to also inspect the soft-float flag, so it

The fix is simple: also check that EF_ARM_SOFT_FLOAT isn't set
before rejecting VFP binaries on non-VFP hardware.

d8aa0251f1 [ARM] 5298/1: Drop desc_handle_irq()
desc_handle_irq() was declared as obsolete since long ago.
Replace it with generic_handle_irq()

3319f5e51a [ARM] 5274/1: simplify request_standard_resources()
There is no point converting memory bank addresses from physical to
virtual just to convert them back to physical addresses.  Furthermore
this isn't "right" for highmem even if in this case the end result is
the correct one.

8ec53663d2 [ARM] Improve non-executable support
Add support for detecting non-executable stack binaries, and adjust
permissions to prevent execution from data and stack areas.  Also,
ensure that READ_IMPLIES_EXEC is enabled for older CPUs where that
is true, and for any executable-stack binary.

6c5da7aced [ARM] mm: move vmalloc= parsing to arch/arm/mm/mmu.c
There's no point scattering this around the tree, the parsing
of the parameter might as well live beside the code which uses
it.  That also means we can make vmalloc_reserve a static
variable.

d7161a6534 kgdb, x86, arm, mips, powerpc: ignore user space single stepping
On the x86 arch, user space single step exceptions should be ignored
if they occur in the kernel space, such as ptrace stepping through a
system call.

First check if it is kgdb that is executing a single step, then ensure
it is not an accidental traversal into the user space, while in kgdb,
any other time the TIF_SINGLESTEP is set, kgdb should ignore the
exception.

On x86, arm, mips and powerpc, the kgdb_contthread usage was
inconsistent with the way single stepping is implemented in the kgdb
core.  The arch specific stub should always set the
kgdb_cpu_doing_single_step correctly if it is single stepping.  This
allows kgdb to correctly process an instruction steps if ptrace
happens to be requesting an instruction step over a system call.
