Enable hibernation for ARM architectures and provide ARM
architecture specific calls used during hibernation.
The swsusp hibernation framework depends on the
platform first having functional suspend/resume.
Then, in order to enable hibernation on a given platform, a
platform_hibernation_ops structure may need to be registered with
the system in order to save/restore any SoC-specific / cpu specific
state needing (re)init over a suspend-to-disk/resume-from-disk cycle.
For example:
- "secure" SoCs that have different sets of control registers
and/or different CR reg access patterns.
- SoCs with L2 caches as the activation sequence there is
SoC-dependent; a full off-on cycle for L2 is not done
by the hibernation support code.
- SoCs requiring steps on wakeup _before_ the "generic" parts
done by cpu_suspend / cpu_resume can work correctly.
- SoCs having persistent state which is maintained during suspend
and resume, but will be lost during the power off cycle after
suspend-to-disk.
This is a rebase/rework of Frank Hofmann's v5 hibernation patchset.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvms390/linux into queue
Lazy storage key handling
-------------------------
Linux does not use the ACC and F bits of the storage key. Newer Linux
versions also do not use the storage keys for dirty and reference
tracking. We can optimize the guest handling for those guests for faults
as well as page-in and page-out by simply not caring about the guest
visible storage key. We trap guest storage key instruction to enable
those keys only on demand.
Migration bitmap
Until now s390 never provided a proper dirty bitmap. Let's provide a
proper migration bitmap for s390. We also change the user dirty tracking
to a fault based mechanism. This makes the host completely independent
from the storage keys. Long term this will allow us to back guest memory
with large pages.
per-VM device attributes
------------------------
To avoid the introduction of new ioctls, let's provide the
attribute semanantic also on the VM-"device".
Userspace controlled CMMA
-------------------------
The CMMA assist is changed from "always on" to "on if requested" via
per-VM device attributes. In addition a callback to reset all usage
states is provided.
Proper guest DAT handling for intercepts
----------------------------------------
While instructions handled by SIE take care of all addressing aspects,
KVM/s390 currently does not care about guest address translation of
intercepts. This worked out fine, because
- the s390 Linux kernel has a 1:1 mapping between kernel virtual<->real
for all pages up to memory size
- intercepts happen only for a small amount of cases
- all of these intercepts happen to be in the kernel text for current
distros
Of course we need to be better for other intercepts, kernel modules etc.
We provide the infrastructure and rework all in-kernel intercepts to work
on logical addresses (paging etc) instead of real ones. The code has
been running internally for several months now, so it is time for going
public.
GDB support
-----------
We provide breakpoints, single stepping and watchpoints.
Fixes/Cleanups
--------------
- Improve program check delivery
- Factor out the handling of transactional memory on program checks
- Use the existing define __LC_PGM_TDB
- Several cleanups in the lowcore structure
- Documentation
NOTES
-----
- All patches touching base s390 are either ACKed or written by the s390
maintainers
- One base KVM patch "KVM: add kvm_is_error_gpa() helper"
- One patch introduces the notion of VM device attributes

It's quite common (in the s390 guest access code) to test if a guest
physical address points to a valid guest memory area or not.
So add a simple helper function in common code, since this might be
of interest for other architectures as well.

This patch set cleans up the Renesas CMT and TMU drivers in preparation for DT
support.
The first 35 patches are a bunch of necessary cleanups that reorganize the CMT
and TMU drivers, their platform data, and the memory, interrupt and clock
resources they expect. As a result the drivers accept a new platform data
model close to the hardware with supports for all the timer channels using a
single device.
The next 13 patches (36/52 to 48/52) move all CMT and TMU platforms from the
old to the new platform data model. Patches 49/52 to 52/52 then drop support
for the old model and perform one more cleanup.

Add driver for STMicroelectronics ST21NFCA NFC controller.
ST21NFCA is using HCI protocol, shdlc as LLC layer & I2C as
communication protocol.
Adding support for Reader/Writer mode with Tag type 1/2/3/4 A & B.
It is using proprietary gate 15 for ISO14443-3 such as type 1 &
type 2 tags. It is using proprietary gate 14 for type F tags.
ST21NFCA_DEVICE_MGNT_GATE gives access to proprietary CLF configuration.
Standard gate for ISO14443-4 A (13) & B (11) are also used.
ST21NFCA specific mecanism:
One particular point to notice for the data handling is that frame
does not contain any length value. Therefore the i2c part of this driver
is managing the reception with a read length sequence until the end of
frame (0x7e) is reached.
In order to avoid conflict between sof & eof a mecanism
called byte stuffing concist of an escape byte (0x7d) insertion before
special byte (0x7e, 0x7d). The special byte is then xored with 0x20.
In this driver, When data are available in the CLF, the interrupt
gpio is driven to active state and triggered an interrupt.
Once the i2c_master_recv start, the interrupt gpio is driven to idle
state until its complete. If the frame is incomplete or data are still
available, interrupts will be triggered again.

Instead of having a list of global functions that are called,
as only one global function is allow to be enabled at a time, there's
no reason to have a list.
Instead, simply have all the users of the global ops, use the global ops
directly, instead of registering their own ftrace_ops. Just switch what
function is used before enabling the function tracer.
This removes a lot of code as well as the complexity involved with it.

serio devices exposed via platform firmware interfaces such as ACPI may
provide additional identifying information of use to userspace.
We don't associate the serio devices with the firmware device (we don't
set it as parent), so there's no way for userspace to make use of this
information.
We cannot change the parent for serio devices instantiated though a
firmware interface as that would break suspend / resume ordering.
Therefore this patch adds a new firmware_id sysfs attribute so that
userspace can get a string from there with any additional identifying
information the firmware interface may provide.

The AHCI spec allows implementations to issue commands in tag order
rather than FIFO order:
5.3.2.12 P:SelectCmd
HBA sets pSlotLoc = (pSlotLoc + 1) mod (CAP.NCS + 1)
or HBA selects the command to issue that has had the
PxCI bit set to '1' longer than any other command
pending to be issued.
The result is that commands posted sequentially (time-wise) may play out
of sequence when issued by hardware.
This behavior has likely been hidden by drives that arrange for commands
to complete in issue order. However, it appears recent drives (two from
different vendors that we have found so far) inflict out-of-order
completions as a matter of course. So, we need to take care to maintain
ordered submission, otherwise we risk triggering a drive to fall out of
sequential-io automation and back to random-io processing, which incurs
large latency and degrades throughput.
This issue was found in simple benchmarks where QD=2 seq-write
performance was 30-50% *greater* than QD=32 seq-write performance.
Tagging for -stable and making the change globally since it has a low
risk-to-reward ratio. Also, word is that recent versions of an unnamed
OS also does it this way now. So, drives in the field are already
experienced with this tag ordering scheme.

Drivers that call regulator_get_optional are tolerant to the absence of
that regulator. By modifying the value returned from the stub function
to match that seen when a regulator isn't present, callers can wrap the
regulator logic with an IS_ERR based conditional even if they happen to
call regulator_is_supported_voltage. This improves efficiency as well
as eliminates the possibility for a very subtle bug.

how an arch can implement atomics it doesn't make sense to have 3
variants of them. They must all be the same.
Furthermore, the 3 variants suggest they're only valid for those 3
atomic ops, while we have many more where they could be applied.
So move away from
smp_mb__{before,after}_{atomic,clear}_{dec,inc,bit}() and reduce the
interface to just the two: smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic().
This patch prepares the way by introducing default implementations in
asm-generic/barrier.h that default to a full barrier and providing
__deprecated inlines for the previous 6 barriers if they're not
provided by the arch.
This should allow for a mostly painless transition (lots of deprecated
warns in the interim).

The current implementation of irq_set_affinity() refuses rightfully to
route an interrupt to an offline cpu.
But there is a special case, where this is actually desired. Some of
the ARM SoCs have per cpu timers which require setting the affinity
during cpu startup where the cpu is not yet in the online mask.
If we can't do that, then the local timer interrupt for the about to
become online cpu is routed to some random online cpu.
The developers of the affected machines tried to work around that
issue, but that results in a massive mess in that timer code.
We have a yet unused argument in the set_affinity callbacks of the irq
chips, which I added back then for a similar reason. It was never
required so it got not used. But I'm happy that I never removed it.
That allows us to implement a sane handling of the above scenario. So
the affected SoC drivers can add the required force handling to their
interrupt chip, switch the timer code to irq_force_affinity() and
things just work.
This does not affect any existing user of irq_set_affinity().
Tagged for stable to allow a simple fix of the affected SoC clock
event drivers.

Merge ipmi fixes from Corey Minyard:
"Things collected since last kernel release.
Some of these are pretty important. The first three are bug fixes.
The next two are to hopefully make everyone happy about allowing
ACPI to be on all the time and not have IPMI have an effect on the
system when not in use. The last is a little cleanup"
* emailed patches from Corey Minyard <cminyard@mvista.com>:
ipmi: boolify some things
ipmi: Turn off all activity on an idle ipmi interface
ipmi: Turn off default probing of interfaces
ipmi: Reset the KCS timeout when starting error recovery
ipmi: Fix a race restarting the timer
Char: ipmi_bt_sm, fix infinite loop

The IPMI driver would wake up periodically looking for events and
watchdog pretimeouts. If there is nothing waiting for these events,
it's really kind of pointless to be checking for them. So modify the
driver so the message handler can pass down if it needs the lower layer
to be waiting for these. Modify the system interface lower layer to
turn off all timer and thread activity if the upper layer doesn't need
anything and it is not currently handling messages. And modify the
message handler to not restart the timer if its timer is not needed.
The timers and kthread will still be enabled if:
- the SI interface is handling a message.
- a user has enabled watching for events.
- the IPMI watchdog timer is in use (since it uses pretimeouts).
- the message handler is waiting on a remote response.
- a user has registered to receive commands.
This mostly affects interfaces without interrupts. Interfaces with
interrupts already don't use CPU in the system interface when the
interface is idle.

With KVM, MMIO is much slower than PIO, due to the need to
do page walk and emulation. But with EPT, it does not have to be: we
know the address from the VMCS so if the address is unique, we can look
up the eventfd directly, bypassing emulation.
Unfortunately, this only works if userspace does not need to match on
access length and data. The implementation adds a separate FAST_MMIO
bus internally. This serves two purposes:
- minimize overhead for old userspace that does not use eventfd with lengtth = 0
- minimize disruption in other code (since we don't know the length,
devices on the MMIO bus only get a valid address in write, this
way we don't need to touch all devices to teach them to handle
an invalid length)
At the moment, this optimization only has effect for EPT on x86.
It will be possible to speed up MMIO for NPT and MMU using the same
idea in the future.
With this patch applied, on VMX MMIO EVENTFD is essentially as fast as PIO.
I was unable to detect any measureable slowdown to non-eventfd MMIO.
Making MMIO faster is important for the upcoming virtio 1.0 which
includes an MMIO signalling capability.
The idea was suggested by Peter Anvin. Lots of thanks to Gleb for
pre-review and suggestions.

In preparation for compat support, we can't assume that user variable
object is represented by a 'struct efi_variable'. Convert the validation
functions to take the variable name as an argument, which is the only
piece of the struct that was ever used anyway.

Only ws2012r2 hosts support the ability to reconnect to the host on VMBUS. This functionality
is needed by kexec in Linux. To use this functionality we need to negotiate version 3.0 of the
VMBUS protocol.
