The kernel needs to setup the first two tlbs with pad
which is used for early page allocation which is used
by mapin_ram() to allocate tables for lowmem memory
before memory initialisation is done.
Calculate pad directly from lowmem size.

The Microblaze PCI code copied the PowerPC irq handling, but powerpc
needs to handle broken device trees that are not present on Microblaze.
This patch removes the powerpc special case and replaces it with a
direct of_irq_parse_and_map_pci() call.

All the callers of irq_create_of_mapping() pass the contents of a struct
of_phandle_args structure to the function. Since all the callers already
have an of_phandle_args pointer, why not pass it directly to
irq_create_of_mapping()?

struct of_irq and struct of_phandle_args are exactly the same structure.
This patch makes the kernel use of_phandle_args everywhere. This in
itself isn't a big deal, but it makes some follow-on patches simpler.

The OF irq handling code has been overloading the term 'map' to refer to
both parsing the data in the device tree and mapping it to the internal
linux irq system. This is probably because the device tree does have the
concept of an 'interrupt-map' function for translating interrupt
references from one node to another, but 'map' is still confusing when
the primary purpose of some of the functions are to parse the DT data.
This patch renames all the of_irq_map_* functions to of_irq_parse_*
which makes it clear that there is a difference between the parsing
phase and the mapping phase. Kernel code can make use of just the
parsing or just the mapping support as needed by the subsystem.
The patch was generated mechanically with a handful of sed commands.

HAVE_ARCH_DEVTREE_FIXUPS appears to always be needed except for sparc,
but it is only used for /proc/device-teee and sparc does not enable
/proc/device-tree. So this option is redundant. Remove the option and
always enable it. This has the side effect of fixing /proc/device-tree
on arches such as arm64 which failed to define this option.

Unlike global OOM handling, memory cgroup code will invoke the OOM killer
in any OOM situation because it has no way of telling faults occuring in
kernel context - which could be handled more gracefully - from
user-triggered faults.
Pass a flag that identifies faults originating in user space from the
architecture-specific fault handlers to generic code so that memcg OOM
handling can be improved.

Fix inadvertent breakage in the clone syscall ABI for Microblaze that
was introduced in commit f3268edbe6fe ("microblaze: switch to generic
fork/vfork/clone").
The Microblaze syscall ABI for clone takes the parent tid address in the
4th argument; the third argument slot is used for the stack size. The
incorrectly-used CLONE_BACKWARDS type assigned parent tid to the 3rd
slot.
This commit restores the original ABI so that existing userspace libc
code will work correctly.
All kernel versions from v3.8-rc1 were affected.

On some PAE architectures, the entire range of physical memory could reside
outside the 32-bit limit. These systems need the ability to specify the
initrd location using 64-bit numbers.
This patch globally modifies the early_init_dt_setup_initrd_arch() function to
use 64-bit numbers instead of the current unsigned long.
There has been quite a bit of debate about whether to use u64 or phys_addr_t.
It was concluded to stick to u64 to be consistent with rest of the device
tree code. As summarized by Geert, "The address to load the initrd is decided
by the bootloader/user and set at that point later in time. The dtb should not
be tied to the kernel you are booting"

Concentrate code to modify totalram_pages into the mm core, so the arch

2) A previous patch has disabled memory poison for initmem on s390

Pull voluntary preemption fixes from Ingo Molnar:
"This tree contains a speedup which is achieved through better
might_sleep()/might_fault() preemption point annotations for uaccess
functions, by Michael S Tsirkin:
1. The only reason uaccess routines might sleep is if they fault.
Make this explicit for all architectures.
2. A voluntary preemption point in uaccess functions means compiler
can't inline them efficiently, this breaks assumptions that they
are very fast and small that e.g. net code seems to make. Remove
this preemption point so behaviour matches with what callers
assume.
3. Accesses (e.g through socket ops) to kernel memory with KERNEL_DS
like net/sunrpc does will never sleep. Remove an unconditinal
might_sleep() in the might_fault() inline in kernel.h (used when
PROVE_LOCKING is not set).
4. Accesses with pagefault_disable() return EFAULT but won't cause
caller to sleep. Check for that and thus avoid might_sleep() when
PROVE_LOCKING is set.
These changes offer a nice speedup for CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y
kernels, here's a network bandwidth measurement between a virtual
machine and the host:
before:
incoming: 7122.77 Mb/s
outgoing: 8480.37 Mb/s
after:
incoming: 8619.24 Mb/s [ +21.0% ]
outgoing: 9455.42 Mb/s [ +11.5% ]
I kept these changes in a separate tree, separate from scheduler
changes, because it's a mixed MM and scheduler topic"

Enable KGDB in defconfig to be sure that support
is regularly compiled.

Other architectures don't do it, and it conflicts with the extern'd definition
in include/linux/kgdb.h.
The patch fails checkpatch but it reflects current
functions declaration and solved compilation error.
