commit 7c4e9ced424be4d36df6a3e3825763e97ee97607 upstream.

If we want load epoch_cyc and epoch_ns atomically,
we should update epoch_cyc_copy first of all.
This notify reader that updating is in progress.

If we update epoch_cyc first like as current implementation,
there is subtle error case.
Look at the below example.

&lt;Initial Condition&gt;
cyc = 9
ns = 900
cyc_copy = 9

== CASE 1 ==
&lt;CPU A = reader&gt;           &lt;CPU B = updater&gt;
                           write cyc = 10
read cyc = 10
read ns = 900
                           write ns = 1000
                           write cyc_copy = 10
read cyc_copy = 10

output = (10, 900)

== CASE 2 ==
&lt;CPU A = reader&gt;           &lt;CPU B = updater&gt;
read cyc = 9
                           write cyc = 10
                           write ns = 1000
read ns = 1000
read cyc_copy = 9
                           write cyc_copy = 10
output = (9, 1000)

If atomic read is ensured, output should be (9, 900) or (10, 1000).
But, output in example case are not.

So, change updating sequence in order to correct this problem.

<title>ARM: integrator: ensure ap_syscon_base is initialised when !CONFIG_MMU</title>

commit ab2a724a2ef9cee5957692257a5d1f08fd7acbbd upstream.

When running on Integrator/AP using atags, ap_syscon_base is initialised
in -&gt;map_io, which isn't called for !MMU platforms.

Instead, initialise the pointer in -&gt;machine_init, as we do when booting
with device-tree.

commit 4b526ca5f627188425184a22ed46c91baa602d43 upstream.

The mxc-timer on the imx25 needs to be derived from the AHB clock.
If a bootloader reparents this clock to the ipg_clk_highfreq, which according
to the datasheet is a valid operation, the system can/will produce lockups/
freezes after some time [1].

This can be forced with code like
	while(1)
                syscall(SYS_clock_gettime, CLOCK_REALTIME, &amp;tp);

This was already fixed with the commit
	"i.MX25 GPT clock fix: ensure correct the clock source" [2],
for 3.1-rc2, but was lost, when i.MX was converted to the common clock framework
("ARM i.MX25: implement clocks using common clock framework") [3]

commit 2815774bb38445006074e16251b9ef5123bdc616 upstream.

Recent assembler versions complain about extraneous
whitespace inside [] brackets. This fixes all of
these instances for the samsung platforms. We should
backport this to all kernels that might need to
be built with new binutils.

commit c3f0f282d950a1e87496a2633ed9e924e275ff8c upstream.

Fix the use of USART on both at91sam9x5 and at91sam9n12. In DTS, the
atmel,use-dma-[rx|tx] property is present but a DMA channel cannot be used.
Indeed the connexion between the DMA engine and the slave is not implemented
yet in Device Tree.
Note however that this property is also used for PDC (private DMA) on older
SoCs. This is why the driver alone cannot determine the validity of this
property.

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.

<title>ARM: 7635/1: versatile: fix the PCI IRQ regression</title>

commit e3e92a7be6936dff1de80e66b0b683d54e9e02d8 upstream.

The PCI IRQs were regressing due to two things:

- The PCI glue layer was using an hard-coded IRQ 27 offset.
  This caused the immediate regression.

- The SIC IRQ mask was inverted (i.e. a bit was indeed set to
  one for each valid IRQ on the SIC, but accidentally inverted
  in the init call). This has been around forever, but we have
  been saved by some other forgiving code that would reserve
  IRQ descriptors in this range, as the versatile is
  non-sparse.

When the IRQs were bumped up 32 steps so as to avoid using IRQ
zero and avoid touching the 16 legacy IRQs, things broke.

Introduce an explicit valid mask for the IRQs that are active
on the PIC/SIC, and pass that. Use the BIT() macro from
&lt;linux/bitops.h&gt; to make sure we hit the right bits, readily
defined in &lt;mach/platform.h&gt;.

Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
 "I was going to hold these off until v3.8 was out, and send them with a
  stable tag, but as everyone else is pushing much bigger fixes which
  Linus is accepting, let's save people from the hastle of having to
  patch v3.8 back into working or use a stable kernel.

  Looking at the diffstat, this really is high value for its size; this
  is miniscule compared to how the -rc6 to tip diffstat currently looks.

  So, four patches in this set:
   - Punit Agrawal reports that the kernel no longer boots on MPCore due
     to a new assumption made in the GIC code which isn't true of
     earlier GIC designs.  This is the biggest change in this set.
   - Punit's boot log also revealed a bunch of WARN_ON() dumps caused by
     the DT-ification of the GIC support without fixing up non-DT
     Realview - which now sees a greater number of interrupts than it
     did before.
   - A fix for the DMA coherent code from Marek which uses the wrong
     check for atomic allocations; this can result in spinlock lockups
     or other nasty effects.
   - A fix from Will, which will affect all Android based platforms if
     not applied (which use the 2G:2G VM split) - this causes
     particularly 'make' to misbehave unless this bug is fixed."

We have received multiple reports of mmap failures when running with a
2:2 vm split. These manifest as either -EINVAL with a non page-aligned
address (ending 0xaaa) or a SEGV, depending on the application. The
issue is commonly observed in children of make, which appears to use
bottom-up mmap (assumedly because it changes the stack rlimit).

Further investigation reveals that this regression was triggered by
394ef6403abc ("mm: use vm_unmapped_area() on arm architecture"), whereby
TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE is no longer page-aligned for bottom-up mmap, causing
get_unmapped_area to choke on misaligned addressed.

This patch fixes the problem by defining TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE in terms of
TASK_SIZE and explicitly aligns the result to 16M, matching the other
end of the heap.
