This reverts commit e9ede14c116f1a6246eee89d320d60a90a86b5d5 which is
commit 42a20f86dc19f9282d974df0ba4d226c865ab9dd upstream.

It has been reported to be causing problems, and is being reworked
upstream and has been dropped from the current 5.15.y stable queue until
it gets resolved.

[ Upstream commit 42a20f86dc19f9282d974df0ba4d226c865ab9dd ]

Having a stable wchan means the process must be blocked and for it to
stay that way while performing stack unwinding.

[ Upstream commit 35a3f4ef0ab543daa1725b0c963eb8c05e3376f8 ]

Some drivers pass a pointer to volatile data to virt_to_bus() and
virt_to_phys(), and that works fine.  One exception is alpha.  This
results in a number of compile errors such as

  drivers/net/wan/lmc/lmc_main.c: In function 'lmc_softreset':
  drivers/net/wan/lmc/lmc_main.c:1782:50: error:
	passing argument 1 of 'virt_to_bus' discards 'volatile'
	qualifier from pointer target type

  drivers/atm/ambassador.c: In function 'do_loader_command':
  drivers/atm/ambassador.c:1747:58: error:
	passing argument 1 of 'virt_to_bus' discards 'volatile'
	qualifier from pointer target type

Declare the parameter of virt_to_phys and virt_to_bus as pointer to
volatile to fix the problem.

The arch-specific Kconfig files use HAVE_IDE to indicate if IDE is
supported.

As IDE support and the HAVE_IDE config vanishes with commit b7fb14d3ac63
("ide: remove the legacy ide driver"), there is no need to mention
HAVE_IDE in all those arch-specific Kconfig files.

The issue was identified with ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py.

<title>alpha: register early reserved memory in memblock</title>

The memory reserved by console/PALcode or non-volatile memory is not added
to memblock.memory.

Since commit fa3354e4ea39 (mm: free_area_init: use maximal zone PFNs rather
than zone sizes) the initialization of the memory map relies on the
accuracy of memblock.memory to properly calculate zone sizes. The holes in
memblock.memory caused by absent regions reserved by the firmware cause
incorrect initialization of struct pages which leads to BUG() during the
initial page freeing:

audit now requires syscall_get_return_value instead of regs_return_value
