This helper doesn't buy us much over calling kmap_atomic directly.
In fact in the only caller it does a bit of useless work as the
caller already has the bvec at hand, and said caller would even
buggy for a multi-segment bio due to the use of this helper.
So just remove it.

For inline asm statements which have a CALL instruction, we list the
stack pointer as a constraint to convince GCC to ensure the frame
pointer is set up first:
static inline void foo()
{
register void *__sp asm(_ASM_SP);
asm("call bar" : "+r" (__sp))
}
Unfortunately, that pattern causes Clang to corrupt the stack pointer.
The fix is easy: convert the stack pointer register variable to a global
variable.
It should be noted that the end result is different based on the GCC
version. With GCC 6.4, this patch has exactly the same result as
before:
defconfig defconfig-nofp distro distro-nofp
before 9820389 9491555 8816046 8516940
after 9820389 9491555 8816046 8516940
With GCC 7.2, however, GCC's behavior has changed. It now changes its
behavior based on the conversion of the register variable to a global.
That somehow convinces it to *always* set up the frame pointer before
inserting *any* inline asm. (Therefore, listing the variable as an
output constraint is a no-op and is no longer necessary.) It's a bit
overkill, but the performance impact should be negligible. And in fact,
there's a nice improvement with frame pointers disabled:
defconfig defconfig-nofp distro distro-nofp
before 9796316 9468236 9076191 8790305
after 9796957 9464267 9076381 8785949
So in summary, while listing the stack pointer as an output constraint
is no longer necessary for newer versions of GCC, it's still needed for
older versions.

gcc-7 optimizes the byte-wise accesses of get_unaligned_le32() into
word-wise accesses if the 32-bit integer output_len is declared as
external. This panics then the bootloader since we don't have the
unaligned access fault trap handler installed during boot time.
Avoid this optimization by declaring output_len as byte-aligned and thus
unbreak the bootloader code.
Additionally, compile the boot code optimized for size.

Commit 24587380f61d ("parisc: Add MADV_HWPOISON and MADV_SOFT_OFFLINE") added
the necessary constants to handle hardware-poisoning. Those were needed to
support the page deallocation feature from firmware.
But I completely missed to add the relevant fault handler code. This now
showed up when I ran the madvise07 testcase from the Linux Test Project,
which failed with a kernel BUG at arch/parisc/mm/fault.c:320.
With this patch the parisc kernel now behaves like other platforms and
gives the same kernel syslog warnings when poisoning pages.

According to the programming note at page 1-31 of the PA 1.1 Firmware
Architecture document, one should use the PDC_INSTR firmware function to
get the instruction that invokes a PDCE_CHECK in the HPMC handler. This
patch follows this note and sets the instruction which has been a nop up
until now.
Testing on a C3000 and C8000 showed that this firmware call isn't
implemented on those machines, so maybe it's only needed on older ones.

The inline asm in __write_64bit_c0_split() modifies the 64-bit input
operand by shifting the high register left by 32, and constructing the
full 64-bit value in the low register (even on a 32-bit kernel), so if
that value is used again it could cause breakage as GCC would assume the
registers haven't changed when they have.
To quote the GCC extended asm documentation:
> Warning: Do not modify the contents of input-only operands (except for
> inputs tied to outputs). The compiler assumes that on exit from the
> asm statement these operands contain the same values as they had
> before executing the statement.
Avoid modifying the input by using a temporary variable as an output
which is modified instead of the input and not otherwise used. The asm
is always __volatile__ so GCC shouldn't optimise it out. The low
register of the temporary output is written before the high register of
the input is read, so we have two constraint alternatives, one where
both use the same registers (for when the input value isn't subsequently
used), and one with an early clobber on the output in case the low
output uses the same register as the high input. This allows the
resulting assembly to remain mostly unchanged.
A diff of a MIPS32r6 kernel reveals only three differences, two in
relation to write_c0_r10k_diag() in cpu_probe() (register allocation
rearranged slightly but otherwise identical), and one in relation to
write_c0_cvmmemctl2() in kvm_vz_local_flush_guesttlb_all(), but the
octeon CPU is only supported on 64-bit kernels where
__write_64bit_c0_split() isn't used so that shouldn't matter in
practice. So there currently doesn't appear to be anything broken by
this bug.

Commit 215ee763f8cb ("powerpc: pseries: remove dlpar_attach_node
dependency on full path") reworked dlpar_attach_node() to no longer
look up the parent node "/cpus", but instead to have the parent node
passed by the caller in the function parameter list.
As a result dlpar_attach_node() is no longer responsible for freeing
the reference to the parent node. However, commit 215ee763f8cb failed
to remove the of_node_put(parent) call in dlpar_attach_node(), or to
take into account that the reference to the parent in the caller
dlpar_cpu_add() needs to be held until after dlpar_attach_node()
returns.
As a result doing repeated cpu add/remove dlpar operations will
eventually result in the following error:

If running on machines that do not provide topology information we
currently generate a "fake" topology which defines the maximum
distance between each cpu: each cpu will be put into an own drawer.
Historically this used to be the best option for (virtual) machines in
overcommited hypervisors.
For some workloads however it is better to generate a different
topology where all cpus are siblings within a package (all cpus are
core siblings). This shows performance improvements of up to 10%,
depending on the workload.
In order to keep the current behaviour, but also allow to switch to
the different core sibling topology use the existing "topology="
kernel parameter:
Specifying "topology=on" on machines without topology information will
generate the core siblings (fake) topology information, instead of the
default topology information where all cpus have the maximum distance.
On machines which provide topology information specifying
"topology=on" does not have any effect.

Optprobes depended on an updated regs->nip from analyse_instr() to
identify the location to branch back from the optprobes trampoline.
However, since commit 3cdfcbfd32b9d ("powerpc: Change analyse_instr so
it doesn't modify *regs"), analyse_instr() doesn't update the registers
anymore. Due to this, we end up branching back from the optprobes
trampoline to the same branch into the trampoline resulting in a loop.
Fix this by calling out to emulate_update_regs() before using the nip.
Additionally, explicitly compare the return value from analyse_instr()
to 1, rather than just checking for !0 so as to guard against any
future changes to analyse_instr() that may result in -1 being returned
in more scenarios.

Using RBP as a temporary register breaks frame pointer convention and
breaks stack traces when unwinding from an interrupt in the crypto code.
Use R13 instead of RBP. Both are callee-saved registers, so the
substitution is straightforward.

Using RBP as a temporary register breaks frame pointer convention and
breaks stack traces when unwinding from an interrupt in the crypto code.
Mix things up a little bit to get rid of the RBP usage, without hurting
performance too much. Use RDI instead of RBP for the TBL pointer. That
will clobber CTX, so spill CTX onto the stack and use R12 to read it in
the outer loop. R12 is used as a non-persistent temporary variable
elsewhere, so it's safe to use.
Also remove the unused y4 variable.

Using RBP as a temporary register breaks frame pointer convention and

Swap the usages of R12 and RBP. Use R12 for the TBL register, and use
RBP to store the pre-aligned stack pointer.

Using RBP as a temporary register breaks frame pointer convention and
breaks stack traces when unwinding from an interrupt in the crypto code.
There's no need to use RBP as a temporary register for the TBL value,
because it always stores the same value: the address of the K256 table.
Instead just reference the address of K256 directly.

Use R11 instead of RBP. Since R11 isn't a callee-saved register, it
doesn't need to be saved and restored on the stack.

Using RBP as a temporary register breaks frame pointer convention and
breaks stack traces when unwinding from an interrupt in the crypto code.
Use RSI instead of RBP for RT1. Since RSI is also used as a the 'dst'
function argument, it needs to be saved on the stack until the argument
is needed.

Using RBP as a temporary register breaks frame pointer convention and

Use R15 instead of RBP. R15 can't be used as the RID1 register because
of x86 instruction encoding limitations. So use R15 for CTX and RDI for
CTX. This means that CTX is no longer an implicit function argument.
Instead it needs to be explicitly copied from RDI.
