Commit 36c0f7f0f899 ("arch: unexport asm/shmparam.h for all
architectures") is different from the patch I submitted.

My patch is this:

  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1546904307-11124-1-git-send-email-yamada.masahiro@socionext.com/T/#u

The file renaming part:

  rename include/{uapi =&gt; }/asm-generic/shmparam.h (100%)

was lost when it was picked up.

I think it was an accident because Andrew did not say anything.

When testing in userspace, UBSAN pointed out that shifting into the sign
bit is undefined behaviour.  It doesn't really make sense to ask for the
highest set bit of a negative value, so just turn the argument type into
an unsigned int.

Some architectures (eg ppc) already had it declared as an unsigned int,
so I don't expect too many problems.

<title>Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function</title>

<id>urn:sha1:96d4f267e40f9509e8a66e2b39e8b95655617693</id>
<content type='text'>
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Pull DMA mapping updates from Christoph Hellwig:
 "A huge update this time, but a lot of that is just consolidating or
  removing code:

   - provide a common DMA_MAPPING_ERROR definition and avoid indirect
     calls for dma_map_* error checking

   - use direct calls for the DMA direct mapping case, avoiding huge
     retpoline overhead for high performance workloads

   - merge the swiotlb dma_map_ops into dma-direct

   - provide a generic remapping DMA consistent allocator for
     architectures that have devices that perform DMA that is not cache
     coherent. Based on the existing arm64 implementation and also used
     for csky now.

   - improve the dma-debug infrastructure, including dynamic allocation
     of entries (Robin Murphy)

   - default to providing chaining scatterlist everywhere, with opt-outs
     for the few architectures (alpha, parisc, most arm32 variants) that
     can't cope with it

   - misc sparc32 dma-related cleanups

   - remove the dma_mark_clean arch hook used by swiotlb on ia64 and
     replace it with the generic noncoherent infrastructure

   - fix the return type of dma_set_max_seg_size (Niklas Söderlund)

   - move the dummy dma ops for not DMA capable devices from arm64 to
     common code (Robin Murphy)

   - ensure dma_alloc_coherent returns zeroed memory to avoid kernel
     data leaks through userspace. We already did this for most common
     architectures, but this ensures we do it everywhere.
     dma_zalloc_coherent has been deprecated and can hopefully be
     removed after -rc1 with a coccinelle script"

Model call chain after should_failslab().  Likewise, we can now use a
kprobe to override the return value of should_fail_alloc_page() and inject
allocation failures into alloc_page*().

This will allow injecting allocation failures using the BCC tools even
without building kernel with CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC and booting it with a
fail_page_alloc= parameter, which incurs some overhead even when failures
are not being injected.  On the other hand, this patch adds an
unconditional call to should_fail_alloc_page() from page allocation
hotpath.  That overhead should be rather negligible with
CONFIG_FAIL_PAGE_ALLOC=n when there's no kprobe attached, though.

break-before-make, as we do for pud and pmd huge entries.
