<title>usercopy: fold builtin_const check into inline function</title>

Instead of having each caller of check_object_size() need to remember to
check for a const size parameter, move the check into check_object_size()
itself. This actually matches the original implementation in PaX, though
this commit cleans up the now-redundant builtin_const() calls in the
various architectures.

<title>dma-mapping: use unsigned long for dma_attrs</title>

<id>00085f1efa387a8ce100e3734920f7639c80caa3</id>
<content type='text'>
The dma-mapping core and the implementations do not change the DMA
attributes passed by pointer.  Thus the pointer can point to const data.
However the attributes do not have to be a bitfield.  Instead unsigned
long will do fine:

1. This is just simpler.  Both in terms of reading the code and setting
   attributes.  Instead of initializing local attributes on the stack
   and passing pointer to it to dma_set_attr(), just set the bits.

2. It brings safeness and checking for const correctness because the
   attributes are passed by value.

<title>signal: consolidate {TS,TLF}_RESTORE_SIGMASK code</title>

<content type='text'>
In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in
ti-&gt;flags.  alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only),
tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations,
placing the flag in ti-&gt;status.

Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common
implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and
drop the custom implementations.

Additional architectures can opt in by removing their
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines.

In general, there's no need for the "restore sigmask" flag to live in
ti-&gt;flags.  alpha, ia64, microblaze, powerpc, sh, sparc (64-bit only),
tile, and x86 use essentially identical alternative implementations,
placing the flag in ti-&gt;status.

Replace those optimized implementations with an equally good common
implementation that stores it in a bitfield in struct task_struct and
drop the custom implementations.

Additional architectures can opt in by removing their
TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK defines.

Pull ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The new feaures here are the support for ACPI overlays (allowing ACPI
  tables to be loaded at any time from EFI variables or via configfs)
  and the LPI (Low-Power Idle) support.  Also notable is the ACPI-based
  NUMA support for ARM64.

  Apart from that we have two new drivers, for the DPTF (Dynamic Power
  and Thermal Framework) power participant device and for the Intel
  Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC, some more PMIC-related changes, support for
  the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and support for
  platform-initiated graceful shutdown.

  Plus two new pieces of documentation and usual assorted fixes and
  cleanups in quite a few places.

  Specifics:

   - Support for ACPI SSDT overlays allowing Secondary System
     Description Tables (SSDTs) to be loaded at any time from EFI
     variables or via configfs (Octavian Purdila, Mika Westerberg).

   - Support for the ACPI LPI (Low-Power Idle) feature introduced in
     ACPI 6.0 and allowing processor idle states to be represented in
     ACPI tables in a hierarchical way (with the help of Processor
     Container objects) and support for ACPI idle states management on
     ARM64, based on LPI (Sudeep Holla).

   - General improvements of ACPI support for NUMA and ARM64 support for
     ACPI-based NUMA (Hanjun Guo, David Daney, Robert Richter).

   - General improvements of the ACPI table upgrade mechanism and ARM64
     support for that feature (Aleksey Makarov, Jon Masters).

   - Support for the Boot Error Record Table (BERT) in APEI and
     improvements of kernel messages printed by the error injection code
     (Huang Ying, Borislav Petkov).

   - New driver for the Intel Broxton WhiskeyCove PMIC operation region
     and support for the REGS operation region on Broxton, PMIC code
     cleanups (Bin Gao, Felipe Balbi, Paul Gortmaker).

   - New driver for the power participant device which is part of the
     Dynamic Power and Thermal Framework (DPTF) and DPTF-related code
     reorganization (Srinivas Pandruvada).

   - Support for the platform-initiated graceful shutdown feature
     introduced in ACPI 6.1 (Prashanth Prakash).

   - ACPI button driver update related to lid input events generated
     automatically on initialization and system resume that have been
     problematic for some time (Lv Zheng).

   - ACPI EC driver cleanups (Lv Zheng).

   - Documentation of the ACPICA release automation process and the
     in-kernel ACPI AML debugger (Lv Zheng).

   - New blacklist entry and two fixes for the ACPI backlight driver
     (Alex Hung, Arvind Yadav, Ralf Gerbig).

   - Cleanups of the ACPI pci_slot driver (Joe Perches, Paul Gortmaker).

   - ACPI CPPC code changes to make it more robust against possible
     defects in ACPI tables and new symbol definitions for PCC (Hoan
     Tran).

   - System reboot code modification to execute the ACPI _PTS (Prepare
     To Sleep) method in addition to _TTS (Ocean He).

   - ACPICA-related change to carry out lock ordering checks in ACPICA
     if ACPICA debug is enabled in the kernel (Lv Zheng).

   - Assorted minor fixes and cleanups (Andy Shevchenko, Baoquan He,
     Bhaktipriya Shridhar, Paul Gortmaker, Rafael Wysocki)"

This allows an arch which needs to do special handing with respect to
different page size when flushing tlb to implement the same in mmu
gather.
