After linking there are several symbols for the same address that the
__switch_to symbol points to. E.g.:
000000000089b9c0 T __kprobes_text_start
000000000089b9c0 T __lock_text_end
000000000089b9c0 T __lock_text_start
000000000089b9c0 T __sched_text_end
000000000089b9c0 T __switch_to
When disassembling with "objdump -d" this results in a missing
__switch_to function. It would be named __kprobes_text_start
instead. To unconfuse objdump add a nop in front of the kprobes text
section. That way __switch_to appears again.
Obviously this solution is sort of a hack, since it also depends on
link order if this works or not. However it is the best I can come up
with for now.

Expose the maximum thread id with /proc/cpuinfo.
With the new line the output looks like this:
vendor_id : IBM/S390
bogomips per cpu: 20325.00
max thread id : 1
With this new interface it is possible to always tell the correct
number of cpu threads potentially being used by the kernel.

Now that hopefully all inline assemblies have been converted to single
basic blocks we can enable kcov on s390.
Note that this patch does not disable as many files on s390 like the
x86 variant does. Right now I didn't see a reason to do that, however
additional files or directories can be excluded at any time.
The runtime overhead seems to be quite high.

The __put_get_user_asm defines an inline assmembly which makes use of
the asm register construct. The parameters passed to that define may
also contain function calls.
It is a gcc restriction that between register asm statements and the
use of any such annotated variables function calls may clobber the
register / variable contents. Or in other words: gcc would generate
broken code.
This can be achieved e.g. with the following code:
get_user(x, func() ? a : b);
where the call of func would clobber register zero which is used by
the __put_get_user_asm define.
To avoid this add two static inline functions which don't have these
side effects.

Remove hardware sampler support from oprofile module.
The oprofile user space utilty has been switched to use the kernel
perf interface, for which we also provide hardware sampling support.
In addition the hardware sampling support is also slightly broken: it
supports only 16 bits for the pid and therefore would generate wrong
results on machines which have a pid >64k.
Also the pt_regs structure which was passed to oprofile common code
cannot necessarily be used to generate sane backtraces, since the
task(s) in question may run while the samples are fed to oprofile.
So the result would be more or less random.
However given that the only user space tools switched to the perf
interface already four years ago the hardware sampler code seems to be
unused code, and therefore it should be reasonable to remove it.
The timer based oprofile support continues to work.

The usual problem for code that is ifdef'ed out is that it doesn't
compile after a while. That's also the case for the storage key
initialisation code, if it would be used (set PAGE_DEFAULT_KEY to
something not zero):
./arch/s390/include/asm/page.h: In function 'storage_key_init_range':
./arch/s390/include/asm/page.h:36:2: error: implicit declaration of function '__storage_key_init_range'
Since the code itself has been useful for debugging purposes several
times, remove the ifdefs and make sure the code gets compiler
coverage. The cost for this is eight bytes.

We have some inline assemblies where the extable entry points to a
label at the end of an inline assembly which is not followed by an
instruction.
On the other hand we have also inline assemblies where the extable
entry points to the first instruction of an inline assembly.
If a first type inline asm (extable point to empty label at the end)
would be directly followed by a second type inline asm (extable points
to first instruction) then we would have two different extable entries
that point to the same instruction but would have a different target
address.
This can lead to quite random behaviour, depending on sorting order.
I verified that we currently do not have such collisions within the
kernel. However to avoid such subtle bugs add a couple of nop
instructions to those inline assemblies which contain an extable that
points to an empty label.

On s390 __ro_after_init is currently mapped to __read_mostly which
means that data marked as __ro_after_init will not be protected.
Reason for this is that the common code __ro_after_init implementation
is x86 centric: the ro_after_init data section was added to rodata,
since x86 enables write protection to kernel text and rodata very
late. On s390 we have write protection for these sections enabled with
the initial page tables. So adding the ro_after_init data section to
rodata does not work on s390.
In order to make __ro_after_init work properly on s390 move the
ro_after_init data, right behind rodata. Unlike the rodata section it
will be marked read-only later after all init calls happened.
This s390 specific implementation adds new __start_ro_after_init and
__end_ro_after_init labels. Everything in between will be marked
read-only after the init calls happened. In addition to the
__ro_after_init data move also the exception table there, since from a
practical point of view it fits the __ro_after_init requirements.

This new section was added to rodata, even though it contains writable

page table entries read-only that point to rodata very early.
This patch allows architectures to implement an own handling of the

Usually that would be:
- mark the rodata section read-only very early
- mark the ro_after_init section read-only within mark_rodata_ro

ptep_flush_lazy and pmdp_flush_lazy use mm->context.attach_count to
decide between a lazy TLB flush vs an immediate TLB flush. The field
contains two 16-bit counters, the number of CPUs that have the mm
attached and can create TLB entries for it and the number of CPUs in
the middle of a page table update.
The __tlb_flush_asce, ptep_flush_direct and pmdp_flush_direct functions
use the attach counter and a mask check with mm_cpumask(mm) to decide
between a local flush local of the current CPU and a global flush.
For all these functions the decision between lazy vs immediate and
local vs global TLB flush can be based on CPU masks. There are two
masks: the mm->context.cpu_attach_mask with the CPUs that are actively
using the mm, and the mm_cpumask(mm) with the CPUs that have used the
mm since the last full flush. The decision between lazy vs immediate
flush is based on the mm->context.cpu_attach_mask, to decide between
local vs global flush the mm_cpumask(mm) is used.
With this patch all checks will use the CPU masks, the old counter
mm->context.attach_count with its two 16-bit values is turned into a
single counter mm->context.flush_count that keeps track of the number
of CPUs with incomplete page table updates. The sole user of this
counter is finish_arch_post_lock_switch() which waits for the end of
all page table updates.

The vunmap_pte_range() function calls ptep_get_and_clear() without any

for the page table update. ptep_flush_direct requires that preemption
is disabled, but without any locking this is not the case. If the kernel
preempts the task while the attach_counter is increased an endless loop
in finish_arch_post_lock_switch() will occur the next time the task is
scheduled.

It is possible to specify a user offset for the TOD clock, e.g. +2 hours.
The TOD clock will carry this offset even if the clock is synchronized
with STP. This makes the time stamps acquired with get_sync_clock()
useless as another LPAR migth use a different TOD offset.
Use the PTFF instrution to get the TOD epoch difference and subtract
it from the TOD clock value to get a physical timestamp. As the epoch
difference contains the sync check delta as well the LPAR offset value
to the physical clock needs to be refreshed after each clock
synchronization.
