This patch is based on original Harini's patch and Andrei's patch,
implemented in a separate file to ease the review/maintanance
and integration with other platforms.
This driver supports GEM-GXL:
- Register ptp clock framework
- Initialize PTP related registers
- HW time stamp on the PTP Ethernet packets are received using the
SO_TIMESTAMPING API. Time stamps are obtained from the dma buffer
descriptors
- add macb_ptp to compilation chain

When a read is directed to the cache, we risk that the lba has been
updated during the time we made the L2P table lookup and the time we are
actually reading form the cache. We intentionally not hold the L2P lock
not to block other threads.
While strict ordering is not a guarantee at this level (unless REQ_FLUSH
has been previously issued), we have experience that some databases that
have recently implemented direct I/O support, issue metadata reads very
close to the writes, without issuing a fsync in the middle. An easy way
to support them while they is to make an extra effort and check the L2P
map right before reading the cache.

For now, we allocate a per I/O buffer for GC data. Since the potential
size of the buffer is 256KB and GC is not in the fast path, do this
allocation with vmalloc. This puts lets pressure on the memory

When user threads place data into the write buffer, they reserve space
and do the memory copy out of the lock. As a consequence, when the write
thread starts persisting data, there is a chance that it is not copied
yet. In this case, avoid polling, and schedule before retrying.

CBR (core-to-bus ratio) packets provide an indication of CPU frequency. A
more accurate measure can be made by counting the cycles (given by CYC
packets) in between other timing packets (either MTC or TSC). Using TSC
packets has at least 2 issues: 1) timing might have stopped (e.g. mwait) or
2) TSC packets within PSB+ might slip past CYC packets. For now, simply do
not use TSC packets for calculating CPU cycles to TSC. That leaves the case
where 2 MTC packets are used, otherwise falling back to the CBR value.

Synthesize new power and ptwrite events.
Power events report changes to C-state but I have also added support
for the existing CBR (core-to-bus ratio) packet and included that
when outputting power events.
The PTWRITE packet is associated with the new "ptwrite" instruction,
which is essentially just a way to stuff a 32 or 64 bit value into the
PT trace.
More details can be found in the patches that add documentation and in
the Intel SDM.

Usually, hardware implicitly acknowledges interrupts when
reading them. However, if this is not the case, the IRQ
gets fired over and over again in the current implementation.
This patch uses the right mask acknowledge function to handle the
aforementioned situation on or1k processors that interact with
such kind of hardware.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree. This batch contains connection tracking updates for the cleanup
iteration path, patches from Florian Westphal:
X) Skip unconfirmed conntracks in nf_ct_iterate_cleanup_net(), just set
dying bit to let the CPU release them.
X) Add nf_ct_iterate_destroy() to be used on module removal, to kill
conntrack from all namespace.
X) Restart iteration on hashtable resizing, since both may occur at
the same time.
X) Use the new nf_ct_iterate_destroy() to remove conntrack with NAT
mapping on module removal.
X) Use nf_ct_iterate_destroy() to remove conntrack entries helper
module removal, from Liping Zhang.
X) Use nf_ct_iterate_cleanup_net() to remove the timeout extension
if user requests this, also from Liping.
X) Add net_ns_barrier() and use it from FTP helper, so make sure
no concurrent namespace removal happens at the same time while
the helper module is being removed.
X) Use NFPROTO_MAX in layer 3 conntrack protocol array, to reduce
module size. Same thing in nf_tables.
Updates for the nf_tables infrastructure:
X) Prepare usage of the extended ACK reporting infrastructure for
nf_tables.
X) Remove unnecessary forward declaration in nf_tables hash set.
X) Skip set size estimation if number of element is not specified.
X) Changes to accomodate a (faster) unresizable hash set implementation,
for anonymous sets and dynamic size fixed sets with no timeouts.
X) Faster lookup function for unresizable hash table for 2 and 4
bytes key.
And, finally, a bunch of asorted small updates and cleanups:
X) Do not hold reference to netdev from ipt_CLUSTER, instead subscribe
to device events and look up for index from the packet path, this
is fixing an issue that is present since the very beginning, patch
from Xin Long.
X) Use nf_register_net_hook() in ipt_CLUSTER, from Florian Westphal.
X) Use ebt_invalid_target() whenever possible in the ebtables tree,
from Gao Feng.
X) Calm down compilation warning in nf_dup infrastructure, patch from
stephen hemminger.
X) Statify functions in nftables rt expression, also from stephen.
X) Update Makefile to use canonical method to specify nf_tables-objs.
From Jike Song.
X) Use nf_conntrack_helpers_register() in amanda and H323.
X) Space cleanup for ctnetlink, from linzhang.

This is a major rewrite of objtool. Instead of only tracking frame
pointer changes, it now tracks all stack-related operations, including
all register saves/restores.
In addition to making stack validation more robust, this also paves the
way for undwarf generation.

In preparation for an objtool rewrite which will have broader checks,
whitelist functions and files which cause problems because they do
unusual things with the stack.
These whitelists serve as a TODO list for which functions and files
don't yet have undwarf unwinder coverage. Eventually most of the
whitelists can be removed in favor of manual CFI hint annotations or
objtool improvements.

Usage of these apis and their compat versions makes
the syscalls: timer_settime and timer_gettime and their
compat implementations simpler.
This patch also serves as a preparatory patch for changing
syscalls to use new time_t data types to support the
y2038 effort by isolating the processing of user pointers
through these apis.

Usage of these apis and their compat versions makes
the syscalls: clock_nanosleep and nanosleep and
their compat implementations simpler.
This is a preparatory patch to isolate data conversions to
struct timespec64 at userspace boundaries. This helps contain
the changes needed to transition to new y2038 safe types.

The comment describes the old explicit IPI-based flush logic, which
is long gone.

It was historically possible to have two concurrent TLB flushes
targetting the same CPU: one initiated locally and one initiated
remotely. This can now cause an OOPS in leave_mm() at
arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:47:
if (this_cpu_read(cpu_tlbstate.state) == TLBSTATE_OK)
BUG();
with this call trace:
flush_tlb_func_local arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:239 [inline]
flush_tlb_mm_range+0x26d/0x370 arch/x86/mm/tlb.c:317
Without reentrancy, this OOPS is impossible: leave_mm() is only
called if we're not in TLBSTATE_OK, but then we're unexpectedly
in TLBSTATE_OK in leave_mm().
This can be caused by flush_tlb_func_remote() happening between
the two checks and calling leave_mm(), resulting in two consecutive
leave_mm() calls on the same CPU with no intervening switch_mm()
calls.
We never saw this OOPS before because the old leave_mm()
implementation didn't put us back in TLBSTATE_OK, so the assertion
didn't fire.
Nadav noticed the reentrancy issue in a different context, but
neither of us realized that it caused a problem yet.

According to the Intel datasheet, the REP MOVSB instruction
exposes a pretty heavy setup cost (50 ticks), which hurts
short string copy operations.
This change tries to avoid this cost by calling the explicit
loop available in the unrolled code for strings shorter
than 64 bytes.
The 64 bytes cutoff value is arbitrary from the code logic
point of view - it has been selected based on measurements,
as the largest value that still ensures a measurable gain.
Micro benchmarks of the __copy_from_user() function with
lengths in the [0-63] range show this performance gain
(shorter the string, larger the gain):
- in the [55%-4%] range on Intel Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v4
- in the [72%-9%] range on Intel Core i7-4810MQ
Other tested CPUs - namely Intel Atom S1260 and AMD Opteron
8216 - show no difference, because they do not expose the
ERMS feature bit.

Address a Coverity false positive, which is caused by overly
convoluted code:
Value assigned to variable 'utime' at line 619:utime = rtime;
is overwritten at line 642:utime = rtime - stime; before it
can be used. This makes such variable assignment useless.
Remove this variable assignment and refactor the code related.
