commit e65f131a14726e5f1b880a528271a52428e5b3a5 upstream.

Commit 9fdca9df (spi: omap2-mcspi: convert to module_platform_driver)
broke the SPI display/panel driver probe on RX-51/N900. The exact cause is
not fully understood, but it seems to be related to the probe order. SPI
communication to the panel driver (spi1.2) fails unless the touchscreen
(spi1.0) has been probed/initialized before. When the omap2-mcspi driver
was converted to a platform driver, it resulted in that the devices are
probed immediately after the board registers them in the order they are
listed in the board file.

Fix the issue by moving the touchscreen before the panel in the SPI
device list.

The patch fixes the following failure:

[    1.260955] acx565akm spi1.2: invalid display ID
[    1.265899] panel-acx565akm display0: acx_panel_probe panel detect error
[    1.273071] omapdss CORE error: driver probe failed: -19

<title>ARM: 7696/1: Fix kexec by setting outer_cache.inv_all for Feroceon</title>

commit cd272d1ea71583170e95dde02c76166c7f9017e6 upstream.

On Feroceon the L2 cache becomes non-coherent with the CPU
when the L1 caches are disabled. Thus the L2 needs to be invalidated
after both L1 caches are disabled.

On kexec before the starting the code for relocation the kernel,
the L1 caches are disabled in cpu_froc_fin (cpu_v7_proc_fin for Feroceon),
but after L2 cache is never invalidated, because inv_all is not set
in cache-feroceon-l2.c.
So kernel relocation and decompression may has (and usually has) errors.
Setting the function enables L2 invalidation and fixes the issue.

Vaguely based on upstream commit 574c4866e33d 'consolidate kernel-side
struct sigaction declarations'.

flush_signal_handlers() needs to know whether sigaction::sa_restorer
is defined, not whether SA_RESTORER is defined.  Define the
__ARCH_HAS_SA_RESTORER macro to indicate this.

commit 5e4ba617c1b584b2e376f31a63bd4e734109318a upstream.

Martin Storsjö reports that the sequence:

        ee312ac1        vsub.f32        s4, s3, s2
        ee702ac0        vsub.f32        s5, s1, s0
        e59f0028        ldr             r0, [pc, #40]
        ee111a90        vmov            r1, s3

on Raspberry Pi (implementor 41 architecture 1 part 20 variant b rev 5)
where s3 is a denormal and s2 is zero results in incorrect behaviour -
the instruction "vsub.f32 s5, s1, s0" is not executed:

        VFP: bounce: trigger ee111a90 fpexc d0000780
        VFP: emulate: INST=0xee312ac1 SCR=0x00000000
        ...

As we can see, the instruction triggering the exception is the "vmov"
instruction, and we emulate the "vsub.f32 s4, s3, s2" but fail to
properly take account of the FPEXC_FP2V flag in FPEXC.  This is because
the test for the second instruction register being valid is bogus, and
will always skip emulation of the second instruction.

commit d107a204154ddd79339203c2deeb7433f0cf6777 upstream.

The Chip Select Configuration Register must be programmed to 0x2 in
order to achieve the correct behavior of the Static Memory Controller.

Without this patch devices wired to DFI and accessed through SMC cannot
be accessed after resume from S2.

Do not rely on the boot loader to program the CSMSADRCFG register by
programming it in the kernel smemc module.

commit 15653371c67c3fbe359ae37b720639dd4c7b42c5 upstream.

Subhash Jadavani reported this partial backtrace:
  Now consider this call stack from MMC block driver (this is on the ARMv7
  based board):

  [&lt;c001b50c&gt;] (v7_dma_inv_range+0x30/0x48) from [&lt;c0017b8c&gt;] (dma_cache_maint_page+0x1c4/0x24c)
  [&lt;c0017b8c&gt;] (dma_cache_maint_page+0x1c4/0x24c) from [&lt;c0017c28&gt;] (___dma_page_cpu_to_dev+0x14/0x1c)
  [&lt;c0017c28&gt;] (___dma_page_cpu_to_dev+0x14/0x1c) from [&lt;c0017ff8&gt;] (dma_map_sg+0x3c/0x114)

This is caused by incrementing the struct page pointer, and running off
the end of the sparsemem page array.  Fix this by incrementing by pfn
instead, and convert the pfn to a struct page.

commit 15653371c67c3fbe359ae37b720639dd4c7b42c5 upstream.

Subhash Jadavani reported this partial backtrace:
  Now consider this call stack from MMC block driver (this is on the ARMv7
  based board):

  [&lt;c001b50c&gt;] (v7_dma_inv_range+0x30/0x48) from [&lt;c0017b8c&gt;] (dma_cache_maint_page+0x1c4/0x24c)
  [&lt;c0017b8c&gt;] (dma_cache_maint_page+0x1c4/0x24c) from [&lt;c0017c28&gt;] (___dma_page_cpu_to_dev+0x14/0x1c)
  [&lt;c0017c28&gt;] (___dma_page_cpu_to_dev+0x14/0x1c) from [&lt;c0017ff8&gt;] (dma_map_sg+0x3c/0x114)

This is caused by incrementing the struct page pointer, and running off
the end of the sparsemem page array.  Fix this by incrementing by pfn
instead, and convert the pfn to a struct page.

<title>ARM: missing -&gt;mmap_sem around find_vma() in swp_emulate.c</title>

commit 7bf9b7bef881aac820bf1f2e9951a17b09bd7e04 upstream.

find_vma() is *not* safe when somebody else is removing vmas.  Not just
the return value might get bogus just as you are getting it (this instance
doesn't try to dereference the resulting vma), the search itself can get
buggered in rather spectacular ways.  IOW, -&gt;mmap_sem really, really is
not optional here.

<title>ARM: mm: use pteval_t to represent page protection values</title>

commit 864aa04cd02979c2c755cb28b5f4fe56039171c0 upstream.

When updating the page protection map after calculating the user_pgprot
value, the base protection map is temporarily stored in an unsigned long
type, causing truncation of the protection bits when LPAE is enabled.
This effectively means that calls to mprotect() will corrupt the upper
page attributes, clearing the XN bit unconditionally.

This patch uses pteval_t to store the intermediate protection values,
preserving the upper bits for 64-bit descriptors.

<title>ARM: 7566/1: vfp: fix save and restore when running on pre-VFPv3 and CONFIG_VFPv3 set</title>

commit 39141ddfb63a664f26d3f42f64ee386e879b492c upstream.

After commit 846a136881b8f73c1f74250bf6acfaa309cab1f2 ("ARM: vfp: fix
saving d16-d31 vfp registers on v6+ kernels"), the OMAP 2430SDP board
started crashing during boot with omap2plus_defconfig:

[    3.875122] mmcblk0: mmc0:e624 SD04G 3.69 GiB
[    3.915954]  mmcblk0: p1
[    4.086639] Internal error: Oops - undefined instruction: 0 [#1] SMP ARM
[    4.093719] Modules linked in:
[    4.096954] CPU: 0    Not tainted  (3.6.0-02232-g759e00b #570)
[    4.103149] PC is at vfp_reload_hw+0x1c/0x44
[    4.107666] LR is at __und_usr_fault_32+0x0/0x8

It turns out that the context save/restore fix unmasked a latent bug
in commit 5aaf254409f8d58229107b59507a8235b715a960 ("ARM: 6203/1: Make
VFPv3 usable on ARMv6").  When CONFIG_VFPv3 is set, but the kernel is
booted on a pre-VFPv3 core, the code attempts to save and restore the
d16-d31 VFP registers.  These are only present on non-D16 VFPv3+, so
this results in an undefined instruction exception.  The code didn't
crash before commit 846a136 because the save and restore code was
only touching d0-d15, present on all VFP.

Fix by implementing a request from Russell King to add a new HWCAP
flag that affirmatively indicates the presence of the d16-d31
registers:

   http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&amp;m=135013547905283&amp;w=2

and some feedback from Måns to clarify the name of the HWCAP flag.
