<title>mm: memblock: make keeping memblock memory opt-in rather than opt-out</title>

<content type='text'>
Most architectures do not need the memblock memory after the page
allocator is initialized, but only few enable ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK in the
arch Kconfig.

Replacing ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK with ARCH_KEEP_MEMBLOCK and inverting the
logic makes it clear which architectures actually use memblock after
system initialization and skips the necessity to add ARCH_DISCARD_MEMBLOCK
to the architectures that are still missing that option.

hexagon implementation of free_initmem() is currently empty and marked
with comment

 * Todo:  free pages between __init_begin and __init_end; possibly
 * some devtree related stuff as well.

Switch it to the generic implementation.

Pull audit updates from Paul Moore:
 "We've got a reasonably broad set of audit patches for the v5.2 merge
  window, the highlights are below:

   - The biggest change, and the source of all the arch/* changes, is
     the patchset from Dmitry to help enable some of the work he is
     doing around PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO.

     To be honest, including this in the audit tree is a bit of a
     stretch, but it does help move audit a little further along towards
     proper syscall auditing for all arches, and everyone else seemed to
     agree that audit was a "good" spot for this to land (or maybe they
     just didn't want to merge it? dunno.).

   - We can now audit time/NTP adjustments.

   - We continue the work to connect associated audit records into a

Pull mmiowb removal from Will Deacon:
 "Remove Mysterious Macro Intended to Obscure Weird Behaviours (mmiowb())

  Remove mmiowb() from the kernel memory barrier API and instead, for
  architectures that need it, hide the barrier inside spin_unlock() when
  MMIO has been performed inside the critical section.

  The only relatively recent changes have been addressing review
  comments on the documentation, which is in a much better shape thanks
  to the efforts of Ben and Ingo.

  I was initially planning to split this into two pull requests so that
  you could run the coccinelle script yourself, however it's been plain
  sailing in linux-next so I've just included the whole lot here to keep
  things simple"

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Here are the locking changes in this cycle:

   - rwsem unification and simpler micro-optimizations to prepare for
     more intrusive (and more lucrative) scalability improvements in
     v5.3 (Waiman Long)

   - Lockdep irq state tracking flag usage cleanups (Frederic
     Weisbecker)

   - static key improvements (Jakub Kicinski, Peter Zijlstra)

   - misc updates, cleanups and smaller fixes"
