d35c7b0e54 unified (weak) sys_pipe implementation
This replaces the duplicated arch-specific versions of "sys_pipe()" with
one unified implementation.  This removes almost 250 lines of duplicated
code.

It's marked __weak, so that *if* an architecture wants to override the
default implementation it can do so by simply having its own replacement
version, since many architectures use alternate calling conventions for
the 'pipe()' system call for legacy reasons (ie traditional UNIX
implementations often return the two file descriptors in registers)

I still haven't changed the cris version even though Linus says the BKL
isn't needed.  The arch maintainer can easily do it if there are really
no obstacles.

c74c120a21 proc: remove proc_root from drivers
Remove proc_root export.  Creation and removal works well if parent PDE is

7fa3031500 aout: suppress A.OUT library support if !CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT
Suppress A.OUT library support if CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT is not set.

Not all architectures support the A.OUT binfmt, so the ELF binfmt should not
be permitted to go looking for A.OUT libraries to load in such a case.  Not
only that, but under such conditions A.OUT core dumps are not produced either.

To make this work, this patch also does the following:

 (1) Makes the existence of the contents of linux/a.out.h contingent on
     CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_AOUT.

 (2) Renames dump_thread() to aout_dump_thread() as it's only called by A.OUT
     core dumping code.

 (3) Moves aout_dump_thread() into asm/a.out-core.h and makes it inline.  This
     is then included only where needed.  This means that this bit of arch
     code will be stored in the appropriate A.OUT binfmt module rather than
     the core kernel.

 (4) Drops A.OUT support for Blackfin (according to Mike Frysinger it's not
     needed) and FRV.

This patch depends on the previous patch to move STACK_TOP[_MAX] out of
asm/a.out.h and into asm/processor.h as they're required whether or not A.OUT
format is available.

4d672e7ac7 timerfd: new timerfd API
This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:

int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
		    const struct itimerspec *utmr,
		    struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);

The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd.  The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.

The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).

The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter.  Otherwise it's a relative time.

The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.

Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface).  Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

a8655e83fc [ARM] 4814/1: RealView: Add broadcasting clockevents support for ARM11MPCore
This patch adds dummy local timers for each CPU so that the board clock
device is used to broadcast events to the other CPUs. The patch also
adds the declaration for the dummy_timer_setup function (the equivalent
of local_timer_setup when CONFIG_LOCAL_TIMERS is not set).

Due to the way clockevents work, the dummy timer on the first CPU has to
be registered before the board timer.

4cd9d6f774 [ARM] 4736/1: Export atags to userspace and allow kexec to use customised atags
Currently, the atags used by kexec are fixed to the ones originally used
to boot the kernel. This is less than ideal as changing the commandline,
initrd and other options would be a useful feature.

This patch exports the atags used for the current kernel to userspace
through an "atags" file in procfs. The presence of the file is
controlled by its own Kconfig option and cleans up several ifdef blocks
into a separate file. The tags for the new kernel are assumed to be at
a fixed location before the kernel image itself. The location of the
tags used to boot the original kernel is unimportant and no longer
saved.

The uncompress.h included by boot/compressed/misc.c resides in
a different space than rest of the kernel and thus can't use
asm/hardware.h (including asm/arch/cpu.h - which, in turn, may use
EXPORTed symbol "processor_id").

01ba2bdc6b all archs: consolidate init and exit sections in vmlinux.lds.h
This patch consolidate all definitions of .init.text, .init.data
and .exit.text, .exit.data section definitions in
the generic vmlinux.lds.h.

This is a preparational patch - alone it does not buy
us much good.

193c3cc125 [ARM] Fix timer damage from d3d74453c3
Move the xtime write mode seqlock into timer_tick(), so it only
surrounds the call to do_timer().

This avoids a deadlock in update_process_times() ...
hrtimer_get_softirq_time() which tries to get a read mode seqlock
on xtime, thereby preventing booting.

796969104c ARM kprobes: special hook for the kprobes breakpoint handler
The kprobes code is already able to cope with reentrant probes, so its
handler must be called outside of the region protected by undef_lock.

If ever this lock is released when handlers are called then this commit
could be reverted.

d30a0c8bf9 ARM kprobes: don't let a single-stepped stmdb corrupt the exception stack
If kprobes installs a breakpoint on a "stmdb sp!, {...}" instruction,
and then single-step it by simulation from the exception context, it will
corrupt the saved regs on the stack from the previous context.

To avoid this, let's add an optional parameter to the svc_entry macro
allowing for a hole to be created on the stack before saving the
interrupted context, and use it in the undef_svc handler when kprobes
is enabled.

24ba613c9d ARM kprobes: core code
This is a full implementation of Kprobes including Jprobes and
Kretprobes support.

This ARM implementation does not follow the usual kprobes double-
exception model. The traditional model is where the initial kprobes
breakpoint calls kprobe_handler(), which returns from exception to
execute the instruction in its original context, then immediately
re-enters after a second breakpoint (or single-stepping exception)
into post_kprobe_handler(), each time the probe is hit..  The ARM
implementation only executes one kprobes exception per hit, so no
post_kprobe_handler() phase. All side-effects from the kprobe'd
instruction are resolved before returning from the initial exception.
As a result, all instructions are _always_ effectively boosted
regardless of the type of instruction, and even regardless of whether
or not there is a post-handler for the probe.

35aa1df432 ARM kprobes: instruction single-stepping support
This is the code implementing instruction single-stepping for kprobes
on ARM.

To get around the limitation of no Next-PC and no hardware single-
stepping, all kprobe'd instructions are split into three camps:
simulation, emulation, and rejected. "Simulated" instructions are
those instructions which behavior is reproduced by straight C code.
"Emulated" instructions are ones that are copied, slightly altered
and executed directly in the instruction slot to reproduce their
behavior.  "Rejected" instructions are ones that could be simulated,
but work hasn't been put into simulating them. These instructions
should be very rare, if not unencountered, in the kernel. If ever
needed, code could be added to simulate them.

One might wonder why this and the ptrace singlestep facility are not
sharing some code.  Both approaches are fundamentally different because
the ptrace code regains control after the stepped instruction by installing
a breakpoint after the instruction itself, and possibly at the location
where the instruction might be branching to, instead of simulating or
emulating the target instruction.

The ptrace approach isn't suitable for kprobes because the breakpoints
would have to be moved back, and the icache flushed, everytime the
probe is hit to let normal code execution resume, which would have a
significant performance impact. It is also racy on SMP since another
CPU could, with the right timing, sail through the probe point without
being caught.  Because ptrace single-stepping always result in a
different process to be scheduled, the concern for performance is much
less significant.

On the other hand, the kprobes approach isn't (currently) suitable for
ptrace because it has no provision for proper user space memory
protection and translation, and even if that was implemented, the gain
wouldn't be worth the added complexity in the ptrace path compared to
the current approach.

So, until kprobes does support user space, both kprobes and ptrace are
best kept independent and separate.

b5872db4a2 [ARM] 4584/2: ARMv7: Add Advanced SIMD (NEON) extension support
This patch enables the use of the Advanced SIMD (NEON) extension on
ARMv7. The NEON technology is a 64/128-bit hybrid SIMD architecture
for accelerating the performance of multimedia and signal processing
applications. The extension shares the registers with the VFP unit and
enabling/disabling and saving/restoring follow the same rules. In
addition, there are instructions that do not have the appropriate CP
number encoded, the checks being made in the call_fpe function.
