perfmon has been marked broken and thus been disabled for all builds
for more than two years.  Remove it entirely.

We know this won't be called for child == current, so we don't need
to bother with callbacks, etc. - just do unw_init_from_blocked_task(),
unw_unwind_to_user() and do the payload of gpregs_[gs]et().  For
one register.  Which is to say, access_elf_reg().

<content type='text'>
Now it's easy to make elf_access_gpreg() handle the rest of global
registers (r16..r31).  That gets rid of the hole in the registers
elf_access_reg() can handle, which will allow to simplify its callers
later in the series.

The function takes the register number, finds the corresponding field
of pt_regs for registers that are saved there or does the unwind for the
registers that end up spilled on the kernel stack.  Then it reads from
or writes to the resulting location.

Unfortunately, finding the required pt_regs field is done by rather
horrible switch.  It's microoptimized in all the wrong places - it
even uses the knowledge that fields for r8..r11 follow each other
in pt_regs layout, while r12..r13 are not adjacent to those, etc.

All of that is to encode the mapping from register numbers to offsets +
the information that r4..r7 are not to be found in pt_regs.

It's deeply in nasal demon territory, at that - the games it plays
with pointer arithmetics on addresses of structure members are
undefined behaviour.

Valid C ends up with better code in this case: just initialize a constant
array with offsets of relevant pt_regs fields and we don't need that
switch anymore.

<title>mm: don't include asm/pgtable.h if linux/mm.h is already included</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e31cf2f4ca422ac9b14ecc4a1295b8977a20f812</id>
<content type='text'>
Patch series "mm: consolidate definitions of page table accessors", v2.

The low level page table accessors (pXY_index(), pXY_offset()) are
duplicated across all architectures and sometimes more than once.  For
instance, we have 31 definition of pgd_offset() for 25 supported
architectures.

Most of these definitions are actually identical and typically it boils
down to, e.g.

static inline unsigned long pmd_index(unsigned long address)
{
        return (address &gt;&gt; PMD_SHIFT) &amp; (PTRS_PER_PMD - 1);
}

static inline pmd_t *pmd_offset(pud_t *pud, unsigned long address)
{
        return (pmd_t *)pud_page_vaddr(*pud) + pmd_index(address);
}

These definitions can be shared among 90% of the arches provided
XYZ_SHIFT, PTRS_PER_XYZ and xyz_page_vaddr() are defined.

For architectures that really need a custom version there is always
possibility to override the generic version with the usual ifdefs magic.

These patches introduce include/linux/pgtable.h that replaces
include/asm-generic/pgtable.h and add the definitions of the page table
accessors to the new header.

This patch (of 12):

The linux/mm.h header includes &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt; to allow inlining of the
functions involving page table manipulations, e.g.  pte_alloc() and
pmd_alloc().  So, there is no point to explicitly include &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;
in the files that include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;.

The include statements in such cases are remove with a simple loop:

	for f in $(git grep -l "include &lt;linux/mm.h&gt;") ; do
		sed -i -e '/include &lt;asm\/pgtable.h&gt;/ d' $f
	done

<title>syscalls: Remove start and number from syscall_set_arguments() args</title>

After removing the start and count arguments of syscall_get_arguments() it
seems reasonable to remove them from syscall_set_arguments(). Note, as of
today, there are no users of syscall_set_arguments(). But we are told that
there will be soon. But for now, at least make it consistent with
syscall_get_arguments().

<title>Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function</title>

<id>urn:sha1:96d4f267e40f9509e8a66e2b39e8b95655617693</id>
<content type='text'>
Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.
