As part of addressing "y2038 problem" for in-kernel uses, this
patch adds safe mktime64() using time64_t.
After this patch, mktime() is deprecated and all its call sites
will be fixed using mktime64(), after that it can be removed.

The kernel uses 32-bit signed value(time_t) for seconds elapsed
1970-01-01:00:00:00, thus it will overflow at 2038-01-19 03:14:08
on 32-bit systems. This is widely known as the y2038 problem.

Introduce FTRACE_OPS_FL_IPMODIFY to avoid conflict among
ftrace users who may modify regs->ip to change the execution
path. If two or more users modify the regs->ip on the same
function entry, one of them will be broken. So they must add
IPMODIFY flag and make sure that ftrace_set_filter_ip() succeeds.
Note that ftrace doesn't allow ftrace_ops which has IPMODIFY
flag to have notrace hash, and the ftrace_ops must have a
filter hash (so that the ftrace_ops can hook only specific
entries), because it strongly depends on the address and
must be allowed for only few selected functions.

Add generic RMII-Reference-Clock-Select support.
Several Micrel PHY have an RMII-Reference-Clock-Select bit to select
25 MHz or 50 MHz clock mode. Recently, support for configuring this
through device tree for KSZ8021 and KSZ8031 was added.
Generalise this support so that it can be configured for other PHY types
as well.
Note that some PHY revisions (of the same type) has this bit inverted.
This should be either configurable through a new device-tree property,
or preferably, determined based on PHY ID if possible.
Also note that this removes support for setting 25 MHz mode from board
files which was also added by the above mentioned commit 45f56cb82e45
("net/phy: micrel: Add clock support for KSZ8021/KSZ8031").

To avoid include hell, the per_cpu variable printk_func was declared
in percpu.h. But it is only defined if printk is defined.
As users of printk may also use the printk_func variable, it needs to
be defined even if CONFIG_PRINTK is not.
Also add a printk.h include in percpu.h just to be safe.

We still need to support platform data for omap3 until it's booting
in device tree only mode. So let's add platform_data/omap-gpmc.h for
that, and a minimal linux/omap-gpmc.h for the save and restore used
by the PM code.
Let's also keep a minimal mach-omap2/gpmc.h still around to avoid
churn on the board-*.c files. Once omap3 boots in device tree only
mode, we can drop mach-omap2/gpmc.h and we can make the data
structures in platform_data/omap-gpmc.h private to the GPMC driver.
Note that we can now also remove gpmc-nand.h and gpmc-onenand.h.

Different drivers request API extensions in of-thermal. For this reason,
additional callbacks are required to fit the new drivers needs.
The current API implementation expects the registering sensor driver
to provide a get_temp and get_trend callbacks as function parameters.
As the amount of callbacks is growing, this patch changes the existing
implementation to use a .ops field to hold all the of thermal callbacks
to sensor drivers.
This patch also changes the existing of-thermal users to fit the new
API design. No functional change is introduced in this patch.

This patch introduces a new thermal cooling device based on common clock
framework. The original motivation to write this cooling device is to be
able to cool down thermal zones using clocks that feed co-processors, such
as GPUs, DSPs, Image Processing Co-processors, etc. But it is written
in a way that it can be used on top of any clock.
The implementation is pretty straight forward. The code creates
a thermal cooling device based on a pair of a struct device and a clock name.
The struct device is assumed to be usable by the OPP layer. The OPP layer
is used as source of the list of possible frequencies. The (cpufreq) frequency
table is then used as a map from frequencies to cooling states. Cooling
states are indexes to the frequency table.
The logic sits on top of common clock framework, specifically on clock
pre notifications. Any PRE_RATE_CHANGE is hijacked, and the transition is
only allowed when the new rate is within the thermal limit (cooling state -> freq).
When a thermal cooling device state transition is requested, the clock
is also checked to verify if the current clock rate is within the new
thermal limit.

read_page_raw and write_page_raw method description is not clear enough.
It clearly specifies that ECC correction should not be involved but does
not talk about specific layout (by layout I mean where in-band and
out-of-band data are stored on the NAND media) used by NAND/ECC
controllers.
Those specific layouts might impact MTD users and thus should be hidden (as
already done in the standard NAND_ECC_HW_SYNDROME implementation).
Clearly state this constraint in the nand_ecc_ctrl struct documentation.

Being able to divert printk to call another function besides the normal
logging is useful for such things like NMI handling. If some functions
are to be called from NMI that does printk() it is possible to lock up
the box if the nmi handler triggers when another printk is happening.
One example of this use is to perform a stack trace on all CPUs via NMI.
But if the NMI is to do the printk() it can cause the system to lock up.
By allowing the printk to be diverted to another function that can safely
record the printk output and then print it when it in a safe context
then NMIs will be safe to call these functions like show_regs().

The function bstr_printf() from lib/vsprnintf.c is only available if
CONFIG_BINARY_PRINTF is defined. This is due to the only user currently
being the tracing infrastructure, which needs to select this config
when tracing is configured. Until there is another user of the binary
printf formats, this will continue to be the case.
Since seq_buf.c is now lives in lib/ and is compiled even without
tracing, it must encompass its use of bstr_printf() which is used
by seq_buf_printf(). This too is only used by the tracing infrastructure
and is still encapsulated by the CONFIG_BINARY_PRINTF.

Currently seq_buf is full when all but one byte of the buffer is
filled. Change it so that the seq_buf is full when all of the

Some of the functions would fill the buffer completely and report
everything was fine. This was inconsistent with the max of size - 1.
Changing this to be max of size makes all functions consistent.

Kernel-side struct msghdr is (currently) using the same layout as
userland one, but it's not a one-to-one copy - even without considering
32bit compat issues, we have msg_iov, msg_name and msg_control copied
to kernel[1]. It's fairly localized, so we get away with a few functions
where that knowledge is needed (and we could shrink that set even
more). Pretty much everything deals with the kernel-side variant and
the few places that want userland one just use a bunch of force-casts
to paper over the differences.
The thing is, kernel-side definition of struct msghdr is *not* exposed
in include/uapi - libc doesn't see it, etc. So we can add struct user_msghdr,
with proper annotations and let the few places that ever deal with those
beasts use it for userland pointers. Saner typechecking aside, that will
allow to change the layout of kernel-side msghdr - e.g. replace
msg_iov/msg_iovlen there with struct iov_iter, getting rid of the need
to modify the iovec as we copy data to/from it, etc.
We could introduce kernel_msghdr instead, but that would create much more
noise - the absolute majority of the instances would need to have the
type switched to kernel_msghdr and definition of struct msghdr in
include/linux/socket.h is not going to be seen by userland anyway.
This commit just introduces user_msghdr and switches the few places that
are dealing with userland-side msghdr to it.
[1] actually, it's even trickier than that - we copy msg_control for
sendmsg, but keep the userland address on recvmsg.

The trace_seq_printf() and friends are used to store strings into a buffer
that can be passed around from function to function. If the trace_seq buffer
fills up, it will not print any more. The return values were somewhat
inconsistant and using trace_seq_has_overflowed() was a better way to know
if the write to the trace_seq buffer succeeded or not.
Now that all users have removed reading the return value of the printf()
type functions, they can safely return void and keep future users of them
from reading the inconsistent values as well.

Adding a trace_seq_has_overflowed() which returns true if the trace_seq
had too much written into it allows us to simplify the code.
Instead of checking the return value of every call to trace_seq_printf()
and friends, they can all be called normally, and at the end we can
return !trace_seq_has_overflowed() instead.
Several functions also return TRACE_TYPE_PARTIAL_LINE when the trace_seq
overflowed and TRACE_TYPE_HANDLED otherwise. Another helper function
was created called trace_handle_return() which takes a trace_seq and
returns these enums. Using this helper function also simplifies the
code.
This change also makes it possible to remove the return values of
trace_seq_printf() and friends. They should instead just be
void functions.

Stack traces that happen from function tracing check if the address
on the stack is a __kernel_text_address(). That is, is the address
kernel code. This calls core_kernel_text() which returns true
if the address is part of the builtin kernel code. It also calls
is_module_text_address() which returns true if the address belongs
to module code.
But what is missing is ftrace dynamically allocated trampolines.
These trampolines are allocated for individual ftrace_ops that
call the ftrace_ops callback functions directly. But if they do a
stack trace, the code checking the stack wont detect them as they
are neither core kernel code nor module address space.
Adding another field to ftrace_ops that also stores the size of
the trampoline assigned to it we can create a new function called
is_ftrace_trampoline() that returns true if the address is a
dynamically allocate ftrace trampoline. Note, it ignores trampolines
that are not dynamically allocated as they will return true with
the core_kernel_text() function.
