Use linker magic to create the vectors and vector stubs: we can tell the
linker to place them at an appropriate VMA, but keep the LMA within the
kernel. This gets rid of some unnecessary symbol manipulation, and
have the linker calculate the relocations appropriately.

Move the machine vector stubs into the page above the vector page,
which we can prevent from being visible to userspace. Also move
the reset stub, and place the swi vector at a location that the
'ldr' can get to it.
This hides pointers into the kernel which could give valuable
information to attackers, and reduces the number of exploitable
instructions at a fixed address.

Fill the empty regions of the vectors page with an exception generating

On arm64, cache maintenance faults appear as data aborts with the CM
bit set in the ESR. The WnR bit, usually used to distinguish between

the instructions are treated as reads by the architecture.

faults in the same way as loads.

During the pruning of the device tree octeon_fdt_pip_iface() is called
for each PIP interface and every port up to the port count is removed
from the device tree. However, the count was set to the return value of
cvmx_helper_interface_enumerate() which doesn't actually return the
count but just returns zero on success. This effectively removed *all*
ports from the tree.
Use cvmx_helper_ports_on_interface() instead to fix this. This

Make KVM_GUEST depend on BROKEN_ON_SMP so that it cannot be enabled with

SMP kernels use ll/sc instructions for an atomic section in the tlb fill
handler, with a tlbp instruction contained in the middle. This cannot be
emulated with trap & emulate KVM because the tlbp instruction traps and
the eret to return to the guest code clears the LLbit which makes the sc

Commit 4df715aa ["MIPS: BMIPS: support booting from physical CPU other
than 0"] introduced a thinko which will prevents slave CPUs from being
released from reset on systems where we boot from TP0. The problem is
that we are checking whether the slave CPU logical CPU map is 0, which
is never true for systems booting from TP0, so we do not release the
slave TP from reset and we are just stuck. Fix this by properly checking
that the CPU we intend to boot really is the physical slave CPU (logical
and physical value being 1).

Pull phase two of __cpuinit removal from Paul Gortmaker:
"With the __cpuinit infrastructure removed earlier, this group of
commits only removes the function/data tagging that was done with the
various (now no-op) __cpuinit related prefixes.
Now that the dust has settled with yesterday's v3.11-rc1, there
hopefully shouldn't be any new users leaking back in tree, but I think
we can leave the harmless no-op stubs there for a release as a
courtesy to those who still have out of tree stuff and weren't paying
attention.
Although the commits are against the recent tag to allow for minor
context refreshes for things like yesterday's v3.11-rc1~ slab content,
the patches have been largely unchanged for weeks, aside from such
trivial updates.
For detail junkies, the largely boring and mostly irrelevant history
of the patches can be viewed at:

Currently, fast page fault incorrectly tries to fix mmio page fault when
the generation number is invalid (spte.gen != kvm.gen). It then returns
to guest to retry the fault since it sees the last spte is nonpresent.
This causes an infinite loop.
Since fast page fault only works for direct mmu, the issue exists when
1) tdp is enabled. It is only triggered only on AMD host since on Intel host
the mmio page fault is recognized as ept-misconfig whose handler call
fault-page path with error_code = 0
2) guest paging is disabled. Under this case, the issue is hardly discovered
since paging disable is short-lived and the sptes will be invalid after
memslot changed for 150 times
Fix it by filtering out MMIO page faults in page_fault_can_be_fast.

Since the IDT is referenced from a fixmap, make sure it is page aligned.
Merge with 32-bit one, since it was already aligned to deal with F00F
bug. Since bss is cleared before IDT setup, it can live there. This also
moves the other *_idt_table variables into common locations.
This avoids the risk of the IDT ever being moved in the bss and having
the mapping be offset, resulting in calling incorrect handlers. In the
current upstream kernel this is not a manifested bug, but heavily patched
kernels (such as those using the PaX patch series) did encounter this bug.
The tables other than idt_table technically do not need to be page
aligned, at least not at the current time, but using a common
declaration avoids mistakes. On 64 bits the table is exactly one page
long, anyway.

Kconfig symbol S3C24XX_PLL depends on ARM_S3C24XX. But that symbol
doesn't exist. Commit f023f8dd59 ("cpufreq: s3c24xx: move cpufreq
driver to drivers/cpufreq"), which added this issue, makes it clear
that ARM_S3C24XX_CPUFREQ was intended here.

The patch implements a s390 specific ptrace request
PTRACE_TE_ABORT_RAND to modify the randomness of spontaneous
aborts of memory transactions of the transaction execution
facility. The data argument of the ptrace request is used to
specify the levels of randomness, 0 for normal operation, 1 to
abort every transaction at a random instruction, and 2 to abort
a random transaction at a random instruction. The default is 0
for normal operation.

There are CPUs which have errata causing RDMSR of a nonexistent MSR to
not fault. We would then try to WRMSR to restore the value of that
MSR, causing a crash. Specifically, some Pentium M variants would
have this problem trying to save and restore the non-existent EFER,
causing a crash on resume.
Work around this by making sure we can write back the result at
suspend time.
Huge thanks to Christian Sünkenberg for finding the offending erratum
that finally deciphered the mystery.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings. In any case, they are temporary and harmless.
This removes all the arch/x86 uses of the __cpuinit macros from
all C files. x86 only had the one __CPUINIT used in assembly files,
and it wasn't paired off with a .previous or a __FINIT, so we can
delete it directly w/o any corresponding additional change there.
