By using "UD0" for WARN()s we remove the function call and its possible
__FILE__ and __LINE__ immediate arguments from the instruction stream.
Total image size will not change much, what we win in the instruction
stream we'll lose because of the __bug_table entries. Still, saves on
I$ footprint and the total image size does go down a bit.

In order to introduce new arch_prctls that are not 64 bit only, rename the
existing 64 bit implementation to do_arch_prctl_64(). Also rename the
second argument of that function from 'addr' to 'arg2', because it will no
longer always be an address.

The only arch that defines it to something meaningful is x86.
But x86 doesn't use the generic GUP_fast() implementation -- the
only place where the callback is called.

If an architecture uses 4level-fixup.h we don't need to do anything as
it includes 5level-fixup.h.
If an architecture uses pgtable-nop*d.h, define __ARCH_USE_5LEVEL_HACK
before inclusion of the header. It makes asm-generic code to use
5level-fixup.h.
If an architecture has 4-level paging or folds levels on its own,
include 5level-fixup.h directly.

Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a
full kprobes.h. This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some
asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers... instead just keep a generic
asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of
clutter as possible.
Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both
when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not. Then
for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled
CONFIG_KPROBES.
Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES,
this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely.
Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them.
Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with
the default asm-generic solution. This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on
the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can
now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without
bringing the full kitchen sink of header files.
Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its
kprobes.h: sh, arch. The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added.
We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless
kprobes have been enabled.
In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from
include/linux/kprobes.h.
During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a
common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition
of the breakput instruction up. Some refer to this as
BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION. This must be kept outside of the #ifdef
CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

cputime_t is now only used by two architectures:
* powerpc (when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y)
* s390
And since the core doesn't use it anymore, we don't need any arch support
from the others. So we can remove their stub implementations.
A final cleanup would be to provide an efficient pure arch
implementation of cputime_to_nsec() for s390 and powerpc and finally
remove include/linux/cputime.h .

This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must
not be done. As of the following commit:
be628be0956 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()")
... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing
the helper to be removed.
However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs
where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least
in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has
been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference
with either calls.
Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most
about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock
slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based
on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures
latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs
get_current_state().
Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used,
which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with
increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite
unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

x86-64 (known to be fast for get_current()/this_cpu_read_stable() caching)
and ppc64 (with paca) show similar improvements in the unlink microbenches.
The small delta for ppc64 (2ms), does not represent the gains on the unlink
runs. In the case of x86, there was a decent amount of variation in the
latency runs, but always within a 20 to 50ms increase), ppc was more constant.

Now that we check for page size change early in the loop, we can
partially revert e9d55e157034a ("mm: change the interface for
__tlb_remove_page").
This simplies the code much, by removing the need to track the last
address with which we adjusted the range. We also go back to the older
way of filling the mmu_gather array, ie, we add an entry and then check
whether the gather batch is full.

With commit e77b0852b551 ("mm/mmu_gather: track page size with mmu
gather and force flush if page size change") we added the ability to
force a tlb flush when the page size change in a mmu_gather loop. We
did that by checking for a page size change every time we added a page
to mmu_gather for lazy flush/remove. We can improve that by moving the
page size change check early and not doing it every time we add a page.
This also helps us to do tlb flush when invalidating a range covering
dax mapping. Wrt dax mapping we don't have a backing struct page and
hence we don't call tlb_remove_page, which earlier forced the tlb flush
on page size change. Moving the page size change check earlier means we
will do the same even for dax mapping.
We also avoid doing this check on architecture other than powerpc.
In a later patch we will remove page size check from tlb_remove_page().

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The tree got pretty big in this development cycle, but the net effect

115 files changed, 673 insertions(+), 1522 deletions(-)
The main changes were:
- Rework and generalize the mutex code to remove per arch mutex
primitives. (Peter Zijlstra)
- Add vCPU preemption support: add an interface to query the
preemption status of vCPUs and use it in locking primitives - this
optimizes paravirt performance. (Pan Xinhui, Juergen Gross,
Christian Borntraeger)
- Introduce cpu_relax_yield() and remov cpu_relax_lowlatency() to
clean up and improve the s390 lock yielding machinery and its core
kernel impact. (Christian Borntraeger)
- Micro-optimize mutexes some more. (Waiman Long)
- Reluctantly add the to-be-deprecated mutex_trylock_recursive()
interface on a temporary basis, to give the DRM code more time to
get rid of its locking hacks. Any other users will be NAK-ed on
sight. (We turned off the deprecation warning for the time being to
not pollute the build log.) (Peter Zijlstra)

When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the
output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".
We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted
PC to see if it lies within that section.
This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in
the minimal framework for other architectures.

Commit e41f501d3912 ("vmlinux.lds: account for destructor sections")
added '.text.exit' to EXIT_TEXT which is discarded at link time by default.
This breaks compilation of UML:
`.text.exit' referenced in section `.fini_array' of
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.a(sdlerror.o):
defined in discarded section `.text.exit' of
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/6/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.a(sdlerror.o)
Apparently UML doesn't want to discard exit text, so let's place all EXIT_TEXT
sections in .exit.text.

This adds support for kcov to UML.
There is a small problem where UML will randomly segfault during boot;
this is because current_thread_info() occasionally returns an invalid
(non-NULL) pointer and we try to dereference it in
__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc(). I consider this a bug in UML itself and this
patch merely exposes it.

Currently UML sets up physical memory very early,
long before setup_arch() was called by the kernel main
function.
This can cause problems when code paths in UML's memory setup
code assume that the kernel is already running.
i.e. when kmemleak is enabled it will evaluate current()
in free_bootmem(). That early current() is undefined and
UML explodes.
Solve the problem by setting up physical memory in setup_arch(),
at this stage the kernel has materialized and basic infrastructure
such as current() works.

This updates the generic and arch specific implementation to return true
if we need to do a tlb flush. That means if a __tlb_remove_page
indicate a flush is needed, the page we try to remove need to be tracked
and added again after the flush. We need to track it because we have
already update the pte to none and we can't just loop back.
This change is done to enable us to do a tlb_flush when we try to flush
a range that consists of different page sizes. For architectures like
ppc64, we can do a range based tlb flush and we need to track page size
for that. When we try to remove a huge page, we will force a tlb flush
and starts a new mmu gather.
