<title>sparc64: Use LOCKDEP_SMALL, not PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL</title>

<id>urn:sha1:395102db441abb8fd18fec5dd81428b5120232af</id>
<content type='text'>
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL shrinks the memory usage of lockdep so the
kernel text, data, and bss fit in the required 32MB limit, but this
option is not set for every config that enables lockdep.

A 4.10 kernel fails to boot with the console output

    Kernel: Using 8 locked TLB entries for main kernel image.
    hypervisor_tlb_lock[2000000:0:8000000071c007c3:1]: errors with f
    Program terminated

with these config options

    CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
    CONFIG_LOCK_STAT=y
    CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=n

To fix, rename CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL to CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SMALL, and
enable this option with CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y so we get the reduced memory
usage every time lockdep is turned on.

Tested that CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SMALL is set to 'y' if and only if
CONFIG_LOCKDEP is set to 'y'.  When other lockdep-related config options
that select CONFIG_LOCKDEP are enabled (e.g. CONFIG_LOCK_STAT or
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING), verified that CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SMALL is also
enabled.

Fixes: e6b5f1be7afe ("config: Adding the new config parameter CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING_SMALL for sparc")

Pull locking fixes from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main change is the uninlining of large refcount_t APIs, plus a
  header dependency fix.

  Note that the uninlining allowed us to enable the underflow/overflow
  warnings unconditionally and remove the debug Kconfig switch: this
  might trigger new warnings in buggy code and turn
  crashes/use-after-free bugs into less harmful memory leaks"

<title>lib: add CONFIG_TEST_SORT to enable self-test of sort()</title>

<content type='text'>
Along with the addition made to Kconfig.debug, the prior existing but
permanently disabled test function has been slightly refactored.

Patch has been tested using QEMU 2.1.2 with a .config obtained through
'make defconfig' (x86_64) and manually enabling the option.

And since size then isn't an issue what so ever anymore, remove the

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big tty/serial driver patchset for 4.11-rc1.

  Not much here, but a lot of little fixes and individual serial driver
  updates all over the subsystem. Majority are for the sh-sci driver and
  platform (the arch-specific changes have acks from the maintainer).

  The start of the "serial bus" code is here as well, but nothing is
  converted to use it yet. That work is still ongoing, hopefully will
  start to show up across different subsystems for 4.12 (bluetooth is
  one major place that will be used.)

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"
