PKRU is the register that lets you disallow writes or all access to a given
protection key.
The XSAVE hardware defines an "init state" of 0 for PKRU: its most
permissive state, allowing access/writes to everything. Since we start off
all new processes with the init state, we start all processes off with the
most permissive possible PKRU.
This is unfortunate. If a thread is clone()'d [1] before a program has
time to set PKRU to a restrictive value, that thread will be able to write
to all data, no matter what pkey is set on it. This weakens any integrity
guarantees that we want pkeys to provide.
To fix this, we define a very restrictive PKRU to override the
XSAVE-provided value when we create a new FPU context. We choose a value
that only allows access to pkey 0, which is as restrictive as we can
practically make it.
This does not cause any practical problems with applications using
protection keys because we require them to specify initial permissions for
each key when it is allocated, which override the restrictive default.
In the end, this ensures that threads which do not know how to manage their
own pkey rights can not do damage to data which is pkey-protected.
I would have thought this was a pretty contrived scenario, except that I
heard a bug report from an MPX user who was creating threads in some very
early code before main(). It may be crazy, but folks evidently _do_ it.

This spells out all of the pkey-related system calls that we have

Allow architectures to create arch/xxx/Makefile.postlink with targets
for vmlinux, modules.ko, and clean, which will be invoked after final
linking of vmlinux and modules.
powerpc will use this to check vmlinux linker relocations for sanity,
and may use it to fix up alternate instruction patch branch addresses.

Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
"This is a slightly larger batch of fixes that we've been sitting on a
few -rcs. Most of them are simple oneliners, but there are two sets
that are slightly larger and worth pointing out:
- A set of patches to OMAP to deal with hwmod for RTC on am33xx
(beaglebone SoC, among others). It's the only clock that ever has
a valid offset of 0, so a new flag needed introduction once this
problem was discovered.
- A collection of CCI fixes for performance counters discovered once
people started using it on X-Gene CPUs"

This adds device tree bindings for:
- An optional GPIO line for releasing the RESET signal to the
SMSC911x devices
- An optional PME (power management event) interrupt line that
can be utilized to wake up the system on network activity.
This signal exist on all the SMSC911x devices, it is just not
very often routed.
Both these lines are routed to the SoC on the Qualcomm APQ8060
Dragonboard and thus needs to be bound in the device tree.

Register ASoC HDMI codec for audio functionality and adds device tree
binding for audio configuration.
With the registered HDMI codec the tda998x node can be used like a
regular codec node in ASoC card configurations. HDMI audio info-frame
and audio stream header is generated by the ASoC HDMI codec. The codec
also applies constraints for available sample-rates based on Edid Like
Data from the display. The device tree binding document has been
updated [1].
Part of this patch has been inspired by Jean Francoise's "drm/i2c: tda998x:
Add support of a DT graph of ports"-patch [2]. There may still be some
identical lines left from the original patch and some of the ideas
have come from there.

no 64-bit types. Clarify this concept to avoid unnecessary padding.
- When using __u64 to hold user pointers, blindly trying to do a cast to
a void __user * may generate a warning on 32-bit systems about a cast
from an integer to a pointer of different size. There is a macro to
deal with this which hides an ugly double cast. Add a reference to
this macro.
