Pull sparc updates from David Miller:
1) Add a proper .exit.data section.
2) Fix ipc64_perm type definition, from Arnd Bergmann.
3) Support folded p4d page tables on sparc64, from Mike Rapport.
4) Remove uses of struct timex, also from Arnd Bergmann.

As discussed in the strace issue tracker, it appears that the sparc32
sysvipc support has been broken for the past 11 years. It was however
working in compat mode, which is how it must have escaped most of the
regular testing.
The problem is that a cleanup patch inadvertently changed the uid/gid
fields in struct ipc64_perm from 32-bit types to 16-bit types in uapi
headers.
Both glibc and uclibc-ng still use the original types, so they should
work fine with compat mode, but not natively. Change the definitions
to use __kernel_uid32_t and __kernel_gid32_t again.

Userspace cannot compile <asm/ipcbuf.h> due to some missing type
definitions. For example, building it for x86 fails as follows:

It is just a matter of missing include directive.
Include <linux/posix_types.h> to make it self-contained, and add it to
the compile-test coverage.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.
