getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

* allow kernel_execve() leave the actual return to userland to
caller (selected by CONFIG_GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE). Callers
updated accordingly.
* architecture that does select GENERIC_KERNEL_EXECVE in its
Kconfig should have its ret_from_kernel_thread() do this:
call schedule_tail
call the callback left for it by copy_thread(); if it ever
returns, that's because it has just done successful kernel_execve()
jump to return from syscall
IOW, its only difference from ret_from_fork() is that it does call the
callback.
* such an architecture should also get rid of ret_from_kernel_execve()
and __ARCH_WANT_KERNEL_EXECVE
This is the last part of infrastructure patches in that area - from
that point on work on different architectures can live independently.

Pull Xen fixes from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk:
"This has four bug-fixes and one tiny feature that I forgot to put
initially in my tree due to oversight.
The feature is for kdump kernels to speed up the /proc/vmcore reading.
There is a ram_is_pfn helper function that the different platforms can
register for. We are now doing that.
The bug-fixes cover some embarrassing struct pv_cpu_ops variables
being set to NULL on Xen (but not baremetal). We had a similar issue
in the past with {write|read}_msr_safe and this fills the three
missing ones. The other bug-fix is to make the console output (hvc)
be capable of dealing with misbehaving backends and not fall flat on
its face. Lastly, a quirk for older XenBus implementations that came
with an ancient v3.4 hypervisor (so RHEL5 based) - reading of certain
non-existent attributes just hangs the guest during bootup - so we
take precaution of not doing that on such older installations.
Feature:
- Register a pfn_is_ram helper to speed up reading of /proc/vmcore.
Bug-fixes:
- Three pvops call for Xen were undefined causing BUG_ONs.
- Add a quirk so that the shutdown watches (used by kdump) are not
used with older Xen (3.4).
- Fix ungraceful state transition for the HVC console."

We actually do not do anything about it. Just return a default

we BUG_ON.

This fault was detected using the kgdb test suite on boot and it
crashes recursively due to the fact that CONFIG_KPROBES on mips adds
an extra die notifier in the page fault handler. The crash signature
looks like this:
kgdbts:RUN bad memory access test
KGDB: re-enter exception: ALL breakpoints killed
Call Trace:
[<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
[<807b7548>] dump_stack+0x20/0x54
The fix for now is to have kgdb return immediately if the fault type
is DIE_PAGE_FAULT and allow the kprobe code to decide what is supposed
to happen.

Pull second set of media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
"Despite its size, most of the stuff here is trivial. This series
contains:
- s5p-mfc: additions at the driver and at the core to support H.264
hardware codec;
- Some improvements at s5p and davinci embedded drivers;
- Some V4L2 compliance fixes applied on a few drivers;
- Several random trivial patches, including several fixes and a few
new board support additions;
Notes:
1) Some Exynos media patches were dependent on some -arm fixes that
got merged on changeset 782cd9e. That's why this pull request is
based that changeset.
2) As promised, I reviewed the pending VB2 DMABUF series.
While setting a test environment, it was noticed that the upstream
support for Samsung Exynos 4 boards (smdk310 and Origen) are
broken upstream, likely due to regressions: both defconfigs are
wrong and regulator settings for both boards are broken. That,
allied with some bug at the dummy regulator driver, causes OOPSes
during boot time.
Long story short: even fixing the above, the proposed patches
OOPSed when running the DMABUF test. Not sure yet if the OOPSes
are due to some other undetected regressions, or due to some bug
on the patches.
Due to the above, DMABUF patches for vb2 got NACKed for 3.7."

Pull second set of pinctrl patches from Linus Walleij:
"Here is a late pinctrl pull request with stuff that wasn't quite
tested at the first pull request.
The main reason to not hold off is that the modifications to
irq_domain_add_simple() as reviewed by Rob Herring introduce new
infrastructure for irqdomains that will be useful for the next cycle:
instead of sprinkling irq descriptor allocation all over the kernel
wherever a "legacy" domain is registered, which is necessary for any
platform using sparse IRQs, and many irq chips are say GPIO
controllers which may be used with several systems, some with sparse
IRQs some not, we push this into the irq_domain_add_simple() so we can
atleast do mistakes in one place.
The irq_domain_add_simple() is currently unused in the kernel, so I
need to provide a user. The Nomadik stuff that goes with are changes
to the driver I use day-to-day to make use of this facility (and a
dependency), so see it as a way to eat my own dogfood: if this blows
up the egg hits my face.
A second round of pinctrl patches for v3.7:
- Complement the Nomadik pinctrl driver with alternate Cx functions
so it handles all oddities.
- A patch to the IRQdomain to reform the simple irqdomain to handle
IRQ descriptor allocation dynamically.
- Use the above feature in the Nomadik pin controller."

anymore
* no need to save/restore volatiles on each pass if there
turns to be more than one (unlikely, but still)
* all double-restart prevention is in C now.

In case we have both NEED_RESCHED and SIGPENDING/NOTIFY_RESUME,
handle the latter first. We'll get to original priorities in
the next commit, but now that allows to simplify the treatment
of NEED_RESCHED-only case nicely. Namely, now there no need to
preserve the data for restarts across the call of schedule() in
$work_resched; we can get there only if we had either returned
from syscall without SIGPENDING (in which case we should've
had no restart-worthy return value and want no restarts) or
already got through do_notify_resume() call (in which case we
want no restarts anymore). So we can just slap 0 into $19
instead of preserving it (and $20).

Add hardware performance counter support to kernel "perf" code for
BMIPS5000. The BMIPS5000 performance counters are similar to MIPS
MTI cores, so the changes were mostly made in perf_event_mipsxx.c
which is typically for MTI cores.

Split the Kconfig option CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP into CONFIG_MIPS_MT_SMP
and CONFIG_MIPS_PERF_SHARED_TC_COUNTERS so some of the code used
for performance counters that are shared between threads can be used
for MIPS cores that are not MT_SMP.
