Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle: "This is the main pull request for MIPS for 4.5 plus some 4.4 fixes. The executive summary: - ATH79 platform improvments, use DT bindings for the ATH79 USB PHY. - Avoid useless rebuilds for zboot. - jz4780: Add NEMC, BCH and NAND device tree nodes - Initial support for the MicroChip's DT platform. As all the device drivers are missing this is still of limited use. - Some Loongson3 cleanups. - The unavoidable whitespace polishing. - Reduce clock skew when synchronizing the CPU cycle counters on CPU startup. - Add MIPS R6 fixes. - Lots of cleanups across arch/mips as fallout from KVM. - Lots of minor fixes and changes for IEEE 754-2008 support to the FPU emulator / fp-assist software. - Minor Ralink, BCM47xx and bcm963xx platform support improvments. - Support SMP on BCM63168" * 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus: (84 commits) MIPS: zboot: Add support for serial debug using the PROM MIPS: zboot: Avoid useless rebuilds MIPS: BMIPS: Enable ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB MIPS: bcm63xx: nvram: Remove unused bcm63xx_nvram_get_psi_size() function MIPS: bcm963xx: Update bcm_tag field image_sequence MIPS: bcm963xx: Move extended flash address to bcm_tag header file MIPS: bcm963xx: Move Broadcom BCM963xx image tag data structure MIPS: bcm63xx: nvram: Use nvram structure definition from header file MIPS: bcm963xx: Add Broadcom BCM963xx board nvram data structure MAINTAINERS: Add KVM for MIPS entry MIPS: KVM: Add missing newline to kvm_err() MIPS: Move KVM specific opcodes into asm/inst.h MIPS: KVM: Use cacheops.h definitions MIPS: Break down cacheops.h definitions MIPS: Use EXCCODE_ constants with set_except_vector() MIPS: Update trap codes MIPS: Move Cause.ExcCode trap codes to mipsregs.h MIPS: KVM: Make kvm_mips_{init,exit}() static MIPS: KVM: Refactor added offsetof()s MIPS: KVM: Convert EXPORT_SYMBOL to _GPL ...

MIPS: bcm963xx: Move extended flash address to bcm_tag header file

2016-01-24T02:48:43Z

The extended flash address needs to be subtracted from bcm_tag flash image offsets. Move this value to the bcm_tag header file. Renamed define name to consistently use bcm963xx for flash layout which should be considered a property of the board and not the SoC (i.e. bcm63xx could theoretically be used on a board without CFE or any flash).

wrappers for ->i_mutex access

2016-01-22T23:04:28Z

parallel to mutex_{lock,unlock,trylock,is_locked,lock_nested}, inode_foo(inode) being mutex_foo(&inode->i_mutex). Please, use those for access to ->i_mutex; over the coming cycle ->i_mutex will become rwsem, with ->lookup() done with it held only shared. Signed-off-by: Al Viro

Pull MTD updates from Brian Norris: "Generic MTD: - populate the MTD device 'of_node' field (and get a proper 'of_node' symlink in sysfs) This yielded some new helper functions, and changes across a variety of drivers - partitioning cleanups, to prepare for better device-tree based partitioning in the future Eliminate a lot of boilerplate for drivers that want to use OF-based partition parsing The DT bindings for this didn't settle yet, so most non-cleanup portions are deferred for a future release NAND: - embed a struct mtd_info inside struct nand_chip This is really long overdue; too many drivers have to do the same silly boilerplate to allocate and link up two "independent" structs, when in fact, everyone is assuming there is an exact 1:1 relationship between a NAND chips struct and its underlying MTD. This aids improved helpers and should make certain abstractions easier in the future. Also causes a lot of churn, helped along by some automated code transformations - add more core support for detecting (and "correcting") bitflips in erased pages; requires opt-in by drivers, but at least we kill a few bad implementations and hopefully stave off future ones - pxa3xx_nand: cleanups, a few fixes, and PM improvements - new JZ4780 NAND driver SPI NOR: - provide default erase function, for controllers that just want to send the SECTOR_ERASE command directly - fix some module auto-loading issues with device tree ("jedec,spi-nor") - error handling fixes - new Mediatek QSPI flash driver Other: - cfi: force valid geometry Kconfig (finally!) This one used to trip up randconfigs occasionally, since bots aren't deterred by big scary "advanced configuration" menus More? Probably.

Pull misc vfs updates from Al Viro: "All kinds of stuff. That probably should've been 5 or 6 separate branches, but by the time I'd realized how large and mixed that bag had become it had been too close to -final to play with rebasing. Some fs/namei.c cleanups there, memdup_user_nul() introduction and switching open-coded instances, burying long-dead code, whack-a-mole of various kinds, several new helpers for ->llseek(), assorted cleanups and fixes from various people, etc. One piece probably deserves special mention - Neil's lookup_one_len_unlocked(). Similar to lookup_one_len(), but gets called without ->i_mutex and tries to avoid ever taking it. That, of course, means that it's not useful for any directory modifications, but things like getting inode attributes in nfds readdirplus are fine with that. I really should've asked for moratorium on lookup-related changes this cycle, but since I hadn't done that early enough... I *am* asking for that for the coming cycle, though - I'm going to try and get conversion of i_mutex to rwsem with ->lookup() done under lock taken shared. There will be a patch closer to the end of the window, along the lines of the one Linus had posted last May - mechanical conversion of ->i_mutex accesses to inode_lock()/inode_unlock()/inode_trylock()/ inode_is_locked()/inode_lock_nested(). To quote Linus back then: ----- | This is an automated patch using | | sed 's/mutex_lock(&\(.*\)->i_mutex)/inode_lock(\1)/' | sed 's/mutex_unlock(&\(.*\)->i_mutex)/inode_unlock(\1)/' | sed 's/mutex_lock_nested(&\(.*\)->i_mutex,[ ]*I_MUTEX_\([A-Z0-9_]*\))/inode_lock_nested(\1, I_MUTEX_\2)/' | sed 's/mutex_is_locked(&\(.*\)->i_mutex)/inode_is_locked(\1)/' | sed 's/mutex_trylock(&\(.*\)->i_mutex)/inode_trylock(\1)/' | | with a very few manual fixups ----- I'm going to send that once the ->i_mutex-affecting stuff in -next gets mostly merged (or when Linus says he's about to stop taking merges)" * 'work.misc' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (63 commits) nfsd: don't hold i_mutex over userspace upcalls fs:affs:Replace time_t with time64_t fs/9p: use fscache mutex rather than spinlock proc: add a reschedule point in proc_readfd_common() logfs: constify logfs_block_ops structures fcntl: allow to set O_DIRECT flag on pipe fs: __generic_file_splice_read retry lookup on AOP_TRUNCATED_PAGE fs: xattr: Use kvfree() [s390] page_to_phys() always returns a multiple of PAGE_SIZE nbd: use ->compat_ioctl() fs: use block_device name vsprintf helper lib/vsprintf: add %*pg format specifier fs: use gendisk->disk_name where possible poll: plug an unused argument to do_poll amdkfd: don't open-code memdup_user() cdrom: don't open-code memdup_user() rsxx: don't open-code memdup_user() mtip32xx: don't open-code memdup_user() [um] mconsole: don't open-code memdup_user_nul() [um] hostaudio: don't open-code memdup_user() ...
