The function name is now renamed to 'timer_probe' for consistency with
the CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE => TIMER_OF_DECLARE change.

The CLOCKSOURCE_OF_DECLARE macro is used widely for the timers to declare the
clocksource at early stage. However, this macro is also used to initialize
the clockevent if any, or the clockevent only.
It was originally suggested to declare another macro to initialize a
clockevent, so in order to separate the two entities even they belong to the
same IP. This was not accepted because of the impact on the DT where splitting
a clocksource/clockevent definition does not make sense as it is a Linux
concept not a hardware description.
On the other side, the clocksource has not interrupt declared while the
clockevent has, so it is easy from the driver to know if the description is
for a clockevent or a clocksource, IOW it could be implemented at the driver
level.
So instead of dealing with a named clocksource macro, let's use a more generic
one: TIMER_OF_DECLARE.
The patch has not functional changes.

After discussing it, this feature is dropped as it is not considered
adequate:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9639317/
There is no user of this macro yet, so there is no impact on the drivers.

The recent changes made the fttmr010 to be more generic and support different
timers with a very few differences like moxart or aspeed.
The aspeed timer uses a countdown and there is a test against the aspeed2400
compatible string to set a flag.
With the previous patch, we added the aspeed2500 compatible string but without
taking care of setting the countdown flag.
Fix this by specifiying a init function and pass the aspeed flag to a common
init function.

This merges the Moxa Art timer driver into the Faraday FTTMR010
driver and replaces all Kconfig symbols to use the Faraday
driver instead. We are now so similar that the drivers can
be merged by just adding a few lines to the Faraday timer.
Differences:
- The Faraday driver explicitly sets the counter to count
upwards for the clocksource, removing the need for the
clocksource core to invert the value.
- The Faraday driver also handles sched_clock()
On the Aspeed, the counter can only count downwards, so support
the timers in downward-counting mode as well, and flag the
Aspeed to use this mode. This mode was tested on the Gemini so
I have high hopes that it'll work fine on the Aspeed as well.
After this we have one driver for all three SoCs and a generic
Faraday FTTMR010 timer driver, which is nice.

This switches the clocksource to TIMER2 like the Moxart driver
does. Mainly to make it more similar to the Moxart/Aspeed driver
but also because it seems more neat to use the timers in order:
use timer 1, then timer 2.

This merges the Moxa and FTTMR010 device tree bindings into the
Faraday binding document to avoid confusion.
The FTTMR010 is the IP block used by these SoCs, in vanilla
or modified variant.
The Aspeed variant is modified such that it is no longer fully
register-compatible with FTTMR010 so for this reason it is not
listed with two compatible strings, instead just one.

The only user of this facility is ptp_clock, which does not implement any of
those functions.
Remove them to prevent accidental users. Especially the interval timer
interfaces are now more or less impossible to implement because the
necessary infrastructure has been confined to the core code. Aside of that
it's really complex to make these callbacks implemented according to spec
as the alarm timer implementation demonstrates. If at all then a nanosleep
callback might be a reasonable extension. For now keep just what ptp_clock
needs.

Pick up urgent fixes to avoid conflicts.

The alarmtimer code has another source of potentially rearming itself too
fast. Interval timers with a very samll interval have a similar CPU hog
effect as the previously fixed overflow issue.
The reason is that alarmtimers do not implement the normal protection
against this kind of problem which the other posix timer use:
timer expires -> queue signal -> deliver signal -> rearm timer
This scheme brings the rearming under scheduler control and prevents
permanently firing timers which hog the CPU.
Bringing this scheme to the alarm timer code is a major overhaul because it
lacks all the necessary mechanisms completely.
So for a quick fix limit the interval to one jiffie. This is not
problematic in practice as alarmtimers are usually backed by an RTC for
suspend which have 1 second resolution. It could be therefor argued that
the resolution of this clock should be set to 1 second in general, but
that's outside the scope of this fix.

Andrey reported a alartimer related RCU stall while fuzzing the kernel with
syzkaller.
The reason for this is an overflow in ktime_add() which brings the
resulting time into negative space and causes immediate expiry of the
timer. The following rearm with a small interval does not bring the timer
back into positive space due to the same issue.
This results in a permanent firing alarmtimer which hogs the CPU.
Use ktime_add_safe() instead which detects the overflow and clamps the
result to KTIME_SEC_MAX.

Pull power management fixes from Rafael Wysocki:
"These fix two bugs in error code paths in the cpufreq core and in the
kirkwood-cpufreq driver.
Specifics:
- Make cpufreq_register_driver() return an error if the ->init()
calls fail for all CPUs to prevent non-functional drivers from
hanging around for no reason (David Arcari).
- Make kirkwood-cpufreq check the return value of
clk_prepare_enable() (which may fail) as appropriate (Arvind
Yadav)"
* tag 'pm-4.12-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm:
cpufreq: kirkwood-cpufreq:- Handle return value of clk_prepare_enable()
cpufreq: cpufreq_register_driver() should return -ENODEV if init fails

lx-dmesg needs access to the log_buf symbol from printk.c.
Unfortunately, the symbol log_buf also exists in BPF's verifier.c and
hence gdb can pick one or the other. If it happens to pick BPF's
log_buf, lx-dmesg doesn't work:
(gdb) lx-dmesg
Python Exception <class 'gdb.MemoryError'> Cannot access memory at address 0x0:
Error occurred in Python command: Cannot access memory at address 0x0
(gdb) p log_buf
$15 = 0x0
Luckily, GDB has a way to deal with this, see
https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Symbols.html
(gdb) info variables ^log_buf$
All variables matching regular expression "^log_buf$":
File <linux.git>/kernel/bpf/verifier.c:
static char *log_buf;
File <linux.git>/kernel/printk/printk.c:
static char *log_buf;
(gdb) p 'verifier.c'::log_buf
$1 = 0x0
(gdb) p 'printk.c'::log_buf
$2 = 0x811a6aa0 <__log_buf> ""
(gdb) p &log_buf
$3 = (char **) 0x8120fe40 <log_buf>
(gdb) p &'verifier.c'::log_buf
$4 = (char **) 0x8120fe40 <log_buf>
(gdb) p &'printk.c'::log_buf
$5 = (char **) 0x8048b7d0 <log_buf>
By being explicit about the location of the symbol, we can make lx-dmesg
work again. While at it, do the same for the other symbols we need from
printk.c
