[ Upstream commit 23fc539e81295b14b50c6ccc5baeb4f3d59d822d ]

On some architectures, access_ok() does not do any argument type
checking, so replacing the definition with a generic one causes
a few warnings for harmless issues that were never caught before.

Fix the ones that I found either through my own test builds or
that were reported by the 0-day bot.

<title>arch: remove GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT entirely</title>

<content type='text'>
In 5.12 cycle we enabled GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT config option for ARM64
and MIPS. It increased performance and shrunk .text size; and so far
I didn't receive any negative feedback on the change.

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arch/20210225135700.1381396-1-yury.norov@gmail.com/

Now I think it's a good time to switch all architectures to use
find_{first,last}_bit() unconditionally, and so remove corresponding
config option.

The patch does't introduce functioal changes for arc, arm, arm64, mips,
m68k, s390 and x86, for other architectures I expect improvement both in
performance and .text size.

find_bit API and bitmap API are closely related, but inclusion paths
are different - include/asm-generic and include/linux, correspondingly.
In the past it made a lot of troubles due to circular dependencies
and/or undefined symbols. Fix this by moving find.h under include/linux.

<title>mm: remove redundant check about FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY bit</title>

<id>36ef159f4408b08eae7f2af6d62bedd3f4343758</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit 4064b9827063 ("mm: allow VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple
times") allowed VM_FAULT_RETRY for multiple times, the
FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY bit of fault_flag will not be changed in the page
fault path, so the following check is no longer needed:

	flags &amp; FAULT_FLAG_ALLOW_RETRY

So just remove it.

The previous commit fixed up all shell scripts to not include
include/config/auto.conf.

Now that include/config/auto.conf is only included by Makefiles,
we can change it into a more Make-friendly form.

Previously, Kconfig output string values enclosed with double-quotes
(both in the .config and include/config/auto.conf):

    CONFIG_X="foo bar"

Unlike shell, Make handles double-quotes (and single-quotes as well)
verbatim. We must rip them off when used.

There are some patterns:

  [1] $(patsubst "%",%,$(CONFIG_X))
  [2] $(CONFIG_X:"%"=%)
  [3] $(subst ",,$(CONFIG_X))
  [4] $(shell echo $(CONFIG_X))

These are not only ugly, but also fragile.

[1] and [2] do not work if the value contains spaces, like
   CONFIG_X=" foo bar "

[3] does not work correctly if the value contains double-quotes like
   CONFIG_X="foo\"bar"

[4] seems to work better, but has a cost of forking a process.

Anyway, quoted strings were always PITA for our Makefiles.

This commit changes Kconfig to stop quoting in include/config/auto.conf.

These are the string type symbols referenced in Makefiles or scripts:

    ACPI_CUSTOM_DSDT_FILE
    ARC_BUILTIN_DTB_NAME
    ARC_TUNE_MCPU
    BUILTIN_DTB_SOURCE
    CC_IMPLICIT_FALLTHROUGH
    CC_VERSION_TEXT
    CFG80211_EXTRA_REGDB_KEYDIR
    EXTRA_FIRMWARE
    EXTRA_FIRMWARE_DIR
    EXTRA_TARGETS
    H8300_BUILTIN_DTB
    INITRAMFS_SOURCE
    LOCALVERSION
    MODULE_SIG_HASH
    MODULE_SIG_KEY
    NDS32_BUILTIN_DTB
    NIOS2_DTB_SOURCE
    OPENRISC_BUILTIN_DTB
    SOC_CANAAN_K210_DTB_SOURCE
    SYSTEM_BLACKLIST_HASH_LIST
    SYSTEM_REVOCATION_KEYS
    SYSTEM_TRUSTED_KEYS
    TARGET_CPU
    UNUSED_KSYMS_WHITELIST
    XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_FAMILY
    XILINX_MICROBLAZE0_HW_VER
    XTENSA_VARIANT_NAME

I checked them one by one, and fixed up the code where necessary.

Use the macro 'swap()' defined in 'include/linux/minmax.h' to avoid
opencoding it.
