<title>powerpc/kernel: Add __init attribute to eligible functions</title>

<content type='text'>
Some functions defined in `arch/powerpc/kernel` (and one in `arch/powerpc/
kexec`) are deserving of an `__init` macro attribute. These functions are
only called by other initialization functions and therefore should inherit
the attribute.
Also, change function declarations in header files to include `__init`.

<content type='text'>
The functions get_online_cpus() and put_online_cpus() have been
deprecated during the CPU hotplug rework. They map directly to
cpus_read_lock() and cpus_read_unlock().

Replace deprecated CPU-hotplug functions with the official version.
The behavior remains unchanged.

<title>powerpc/rtasd: simplify handle_rtas_event(), emit message on events</title>

<id>urn:sha1:91713ac377859893a7798999cb2e3a388d8ae710</id>
<content type='text'>
prrn_is_enabled() always returns false/0, so handle_rtas_event() can
be simplified and some dead code can be removed. Use machine_is()
instead of #ifdef to run this code only on pseries, and add an
informational ratelimited message that we are ignoring the
events. PRRN events are relatively rare in normal operation and
usually arise from operator-initiated actions such as a DPO (Dynamic
Platform Optimizer) run.

Eventually we do want to consume these events and update the device
tree, but that needs more care to be safe vs LPM and DLPAR.

<title>Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function</title>

<id>urn:sha1:96d4f267e40f9509e8a66e2b39e8b95655617693</id>
<content type='text'>
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

Currently when we get an unknown RTAS event it prints the type as
"Unknown" and no other useful information. Add the raw type code to the
log message so that we have something to work off.

<content type='text'>
When a PRRN event is received we are already running in a worker
thread. Instead of spawning off another worker thread on the prrn_work
workqueue to handle the PRRN event we can just call the PRRN handler
routine directly.

With this update we can also pass the scope variable for the PRRN
event directly to the handler instead of it being a global variable.

This patch fixes the following oops mnessage we are seeing in PRRN testing:
