commit 4bf9636c39ac70da091d5a2e28d3448eaa7f115c upstream.

Commit 9fc2105aeaaf ("ARM: 7830/1: delay: don't bother reporting
bogomips in /proc/cpuinfo") breaks audio in python, and probably
elsewhere, with message

  FATAL: cannot locate cpu MHz in /proc/cpuinfo

I'm not the first one to hit it, see for example

  https://theredblacktree.wordpress.com/2014/08/10/fatal-cannot-locate-cpu-mhz-in-proccpuinfo/
  https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/765800/workaround-for-fatal-cannot-locate-cpu-mhz-in-proc-cpuinf/?offset=1

Reading original changelog, I have to say "Stop breaking working setups.
You know who you are!".

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
 "Another round of relatively small ARM fixes.

  Thomas spotted that the strex backoff delay bit was a disable bit, so
  it needed to be clear for this to work.  Vladimir spotted that using a
  restart block for the cache flush operation would return -EINTR, which
  userspace was not expecting.  Dmitry spotted that the auxiliary
  control register accesses for Xscale were not correct"

We cannot restart cacheflush safely if a process provides user-defined
signal handler and signal is pending. In this case -EINTR is returned
and it is expected that process re-invokes syscall. However, there are
a few problems with that:
 * looks like nobody bothers checking return value from cacheflush
 * but if it did, we don't provide the restart address for that, so the
   process has to use the same range again
 * ...and again, what might lead to looping forever

So, remove cacheflush restarting code and terminate cache flushing
as early as fatal signal is pending.

 "So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
  problem.  We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process.  seccomp
  hooks in before the audit syscall entry code.  audit_syscall_entry
  took as an argument the arch of the given syscall.  Since the arch is
  part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
  of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
  syscall...

  For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
  So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
  there is audit which didn't have it.  Use syscall_get_arch() in the
  seccomp audit code.  Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
  a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
  syscall entry.

  The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
  records that had invalid spaces.  Better locking around the task comm
  field.  Removing some dead functions and structs.  Make some things
  static.  Really minor stuff"

These stock GCC versions miscompile the kernel by incorrectly optimising
the function epilogue code - by first increasing the stack pointer, and
then loading entries from below the stack.  This means that an opportune
interrupt or exception will corrupt the current function's saved state,
which may result in the parent function seeing different register
values.

As this bug has been known to result in corrupted filesystems, and these
buggy compiler versions seem to be frequently used, we have little
option but to blacklist these compiler versions.

Distributions may have fixed PR58854, but as their compilers are totally
indistinguishable from the buggy versions, it is unfortunate that this
also results in those also being blacklisted.  Given the filesystem
corruption potential of the original, this is the lesser evil.  People
who want to build with their fixed compiler versions will need to adjust
the kernel source.  (Distros need to think about the implications of
fixing such a compiler bug, and consider how to ensure that their fixed
compiler versions can be detected if they wish to avoid this.)

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
 "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
  and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
  and had their own accessors.  The distinction has been gone for many
  years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
  with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
  operations over time.  During the process, we also accumulated other
  inconsistent operations.

  This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
  duplicate accessor situation.  __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
  with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().

  Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
  messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
  a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
  this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

  This converts most of the uses but not all.  Christoph will follow up
  with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
  remove the obsolete accessors"

Pull x86 seccomp changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "This tree includes x86 seccomp filter speedups and related preparatory
  work, which touches core seccomp facilities as well.

  The main idea is to split seccomp into two phases, to be able to enter
  a simple fast path for syscalls with ptrace side effects.

  There's no substantial user-visible (and ABI) effects expected from
  this, except a change in how we emit a better audit record for
  SECCOMP_RET_TRACE events"
