[ Upstream commit a506bd5756290821a4314f502b4bafc2afcf5260 ]

The commit 1879445dfa7b ("perf/core: Set event's default
::overflow_handler()") set a default event-&gt;overflow_handler in
perf_event_alloc(), and replace the check event-&gt;overflow_handler with
is_default_overflow_handler(), but one is missing.

Currently, the bp-&gt;overflow_handler can not be NULL. As a result,
enable_single_step() is always not invoked.

[ Upstream commit fd749fe4bcb00ad80d9eece709f804bb4ac6bf1e ]

When CONFIG_EPOLL is not set/enabled, sys_oabi-compat.c has build
errors. Fix these by surrounding them with ifdef CONFIG_EPOLL/endif
and providing stubs for the "EPOLL is not set" case.

<title>ARM: kexec: fix oops after TLB are invalidated</title>

Giancarlo Ferrari reports the following oops while trying to use kexec:

 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 80112f38
 pgd = fd7ef03e
 [80112f38] *pgd=0001141e(bad)
 Internal error: Oops: 80d [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM
 ...

This is caused by machine_kexec() trying to set the kernel text to be
read/write, so it can poke values into the relocation code before
copying it - and an interrupt occuring which changes the page tables.
The subsequent writes then hit read-only sections that trigger a
data abort resulting in the above oops.

Fix this by copying the relocation code, and then writing the variables
into the destination, thereby avoiding the need to make the kernel text
read/write.

<content type='text'>
The early ATAGS/DT mapping code uses SECTION_SHIFT to mask low order
bits of R2, and decides that no ATAGS/DTB were provided if the resulting
value is 0x0.

This means that on systems where DRAM starts at 0x0 (such as Raspberry
Pi), no explicit mapping of the DT will be created if R2 points into the
first 1 MB section of memory. This was not a problem before, because the
decompressed kernel is loaded at the base of DRAM and mapped using
sections as well, and so as long as the DT is referenced via a virtual
address that uses the same translation (the linear map, in this case),
things work fine.

However, commit 7a1be318f579 ("9012/1: move device tree mapping out of
linear region") changes this, and now the DT is referenced via a virtual
address that is disjoint from the linear mapping of DRAM, and so we need
the early code to create the DT mapping unconditionally.

So let's create the early DT mapping for any value of R2 != 0x0.

Mapping between IPI type index and its string is direct without requiring
an additional offset. Hence the existing macro S(x, s) is now redundant
and can just be dropped. This also makes the code clean and simple.

Commit aaac3733171fca94 ("ARM: kvm: replace open coded VA-&gt;PA calculations
with adr_l call") removed all uses of .L__boot_cpu_mode_offset, so there
is no longer a need to define it.
