This converts all remaining cases of the old setup_timer() API into using
timer_setup(), where the callback argument is the structure already
holding the struct timer_list. These should have no behavioral changes,
since they just change which pointer is passed into the callback with
the same available pointers after conversion. It handles the following
examples, in addition to some other variations.

Casting from unsigned long:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
        struct something *ptr = (struct something *)data;
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, ptr);

and forced object casts:

    void my_callback(struct something *ptr)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, (unsigned long)ptr);

become:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
        struct something *ptr = from_timer(ptr, t, my_timer);
    ...
    }
    ...
    timer_setup(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, 0);

Direct function assignments:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
        struct something *ptr = (struct something *)data;
    ...
    }
    ...
    ptr-&gt;my_timer.function = my_callback;

have a temporary cast added, along with converting the args:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
        struct something *ptr = from_timer(ptr, t, my_timer);
    ...
    }
    ...
    ptr-&gt;my_timer.function = (TIMER_FUNC_TYPE)my_callback;

And finally, callbacks without a data assignment:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, 0);

have their argument renamed to verify they're unused during conversion:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *unused)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    timer_setup(&amp;ptr-&gt;my_timer, my_callback, 0);

The conversion is done with the following Coccinelle script:

spatch --very-quiet --all-includes --include-headers \
	-I ./arch/x86/include -I ./arch/x86/include/generated \
	-I ./include -I ./arch/x86/include/uapi \

So that there's no need to get into the submenu to disable all related config
entries.

The BROKEN PPS_GENERATOR_PARPORT now also depends on PPS

Issue is that x86 32-bit aligns to 4-bytes instead of 8-bytes
so this patchset works around the issue and corrects the data
returned in pps_fdata_compat.

ioctl definitions use the pointer size of the architecture which
is fine when userspace and kernel are the same bitsize. This
patchset workarounds an issue with mixed bitsize kernel + userspace
by rewriting the cmd to the kernelspace architecture pointer size.

CONFIG_NO_HZ currently only sets the default value of dynticks config so
if PPS kernel consumer needs periodic timer ticks it should depend on
!CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON instead of !CONFIG_NO_HZ.

Otherwise it is possible to enable it even on tickless system which has
CONFIG_NO_HZ not set and CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE (or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL) set.

<id>urn:sha1:368301f2fe4b07e5fb71dba3cc566bc59eb6705f</id>
<content type='text'>
With this command sequence:

  modprobe plip
  modprobe pps_parport
  rmmod pps_parport

the partport_pps modules causes this crash:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null)
  IP: parport_detach+0x1d/0x60 [pps_parport]
  Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP
  ...
  Call Trace:
    parport_unregister_driver+0x65/0xc0 [parport]
    SyS_delete_module+0x187/0x210

The sequence that builds up to this is:

 1) plip is loaded and takes the parport device for exclusive use:

    plip0: Parallel port at 0x378, using IRQ 7.

 2) pps_parport then fails to grab the device:

    pps_parport: parallel port PPS client
    parport0: cannot grant exclusive access for device pps_parport
    pps_parport: couldn't register with parport0

 3) rmmod of pps_parport is then killed because it tries to access
    pardev-&gt;name, but pardev (taken from port-&gt;cad) is NULL.

So add a check for NULL in the test there too.

The pps_event_time uses two 'timespec' structures internally, which
suffer from the y2038 problem. The uses of this structure are
fairly self-contained in the pps code, so this replaces them all at
once.

Unfortunately, this includes the sfc ethernet driver aside from the
pps subsystem, so we change that one as well. Both touch the
same data structure, and there probably is no good way to split
the patch into smaller units.

There is only one user of the hardpps function in the kernel, so
it makes sense to atomically change it over to using 64-bit
timestamps for y2038 safety. In the hardpps implementation,
we also need to change the pps_normtime structure, which is
similar to struct timespec and also requires a 64-bit
seconds portion.

This introduces two temporary variables in pps_kc_event() to
do the conversion, they will be removed again in the next step,
which seemed preferable to having a larger patch changing it
all at the same time.

A platform_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the
driver core.
