A few architectures use &lt;asm/segment.h&gt; internally, but nothing in
common code does. Remove all the empty or almost empty versions of it,
including the asm-generic one.

<title>MIPS: remove meaningless generic-(CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM) += checksum.h</title>

<id>a0f0b69f2c15c12eb45b4e8d76f704ba9bc9c126</id>
<content type='text'>
This line is weird in multiple ways.

(CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM) might be a typo of $(CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM).

Even if you add '$' to it, $(CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM) is never evaluated
to 'y' because scripts/Makefile.asm-generic does not include
include/config/auto.conf. So, the asm-generic wrapper of checksum.h
is never generated.

Even if you manage to generate it, it is never included by anyone
because MIPS has the checkin header with the same file name:

  arch/mips/include/asm/checksum.h

As you see in the top Makefile, the checkin headers are included before
generated ones.

  LINUXINCLUDE    := \
                  -I$(srctree)/arch/$(SRCARCH)/include \
                  -I$(objtree)/arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated \
                  ...

Commit 4e0748f5beb9 ("MIPS: Use generic checksum functions for MIPS R6")
already added the asm-generic fallback code in the checkin header:

  #ifdef CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM
  #include &lt;asm/generic/checksum.h&gt;
  #else
    ...
  #endif

Various architectures support both coherent and non-coherent dma on a
per-device basis.  Move the dma_noncoherent flag from the mips archdata
field to struct device proper to prepare the infrastructure for reuse on
other architectures.

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd:
 "The core framework has a handful of patches this time around, mostly
  due to the clk rate protection support added by Jerome Brunet.

  This feature will allow consumers to lock in a certain rate on the
  output of a clk so that things like audio playback don't hear pops
  when the clk frequency changes due to shared parent clks changing
  rates. Currently the clk API doesn't guarantee the rate of a clk stays
  at the rate you request after clk_set_rate() is called, so this new
  API will allow drivers to express that requirement.

  Beyond this, the core got some debugfs pretty printing patches and a
  couple minor non-critical fixes.

  Looking outside of the core framework diff we have some new driver
  additions and the removal of a legacy TI clk driver. Both of these hit
  high in the dirstat. Also, the removal of the asm-generic/clkdev.h
  file causes small one-liners in all the architecture Kbuild files.

  Overall, the driver diff seems to be the normal stuff that comes all
  the time to fix little problems here and there and to support new
  hardware.

  Summary:

  Core:
   - Clk rate protection
   - Symbolic clk flags in debugfs output
   - Clk registration enabled clks while doing bookkeeping updates

  New Drivers:
   - Spreadtrum SC9860
   - HiSilicon hi3660 stub
   - Qualcomm A53 PLL, SPMI clkdiv, and MSM8916 APCS
   - Amlogic Meson-AXG
   - ASPEED BMC

  Removed Drivers:
   - TI OMAP 3xxx legacy clk (non-DT) support
   - asm*/clkdev.h got removed (not really a driver)

  Updates:
   - Renesas FDP1-0 module clock on R-Car M3-W
   - Renesas LVDS module clock on R-Car V3M
   - Misc fixes to pr_err() prints
   - Qualcomm MSM8916 audio fixes
   - Qualcomm IPQ8074 rounded out support for more peripherals
   - Qualcomm Alpha PLL variants
   - Divider code was using container_of() on bad pointers
   - Allwinner DE2 clks on H3
   - Amlogic minor data fixes and dropping of CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED
   - Mediatek clk driver compile test support
   - AT91 PMC clk suspend/resume restoration support
   - PLL issues fixed on si5351
   - Broadcom IProc PLL calculation updates
   - DVFS support for Armada mvebu CPU clks
   - Allwinner fixed post-divider support
   - TI clkctrl fixes and support for newer SoCs"

Now that every architecture is using the generic clkdev.h file
and we no longer include asm/clkdev.h anywhere in the tree, we
can remove it.

<title>MIPS: Add custom serial.h with BASE_BAUD override for generic kernel</title>

<id>c8ec2041f549e7f2dee0c34d25381be6f7805f99</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a custom serial.h header for MIPS, allowing platforms to override
the asm-generic version if required.

The generic platform uses this header to set BASE_BAUD to 0. The
generic platform supports multiple boards, which may have different
UART clocks. Also one of the boards supported is the Boston FPGA board,
where the UART clock depends on the loaded FPGA bitfile. As such there
is no way that the generic kernel can set a compile time default
BASE_BAUD.

Commit 31cb9a8575ca ("earlycon: initialise baud field of earlycon device
structure") changed the behavior of of_setup_earlycon such that any baud
rate set in the device tree is now set in the earlycon structure. The
UART driver will then calculate a divisor based on BASE_BAUD and set it.
With MIPS generic kernels this resulted in garbage output due to the
incorrect uart clock rate being used to calculate a divisor. This
commit, combined with "serial: 8250_early: Only set divisor if valid clk
&amp; baud" prevents the earlycon code setting a bad divisor and restores
earlycon output.

<title>MIPS: Use queued spinlocks (qspinlock)</title>

<id>0b17c9670590148656645be57f62f279f0d3ad52</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch switches MIPS to make use of generically implemented queued
spinlocks, rather than the ticket spinlocks used previously. This allows
us to drop a whole load of inline assembly, share more generic code, and
is also a performance win.

Results from running the AIM7 short workload on a MIPS Creator Ci40 (ie.
2 core 2 thread interAptiv CPU clocked at 546MHz) with v4.12-rc4
pistachio_defconfig, with ftrace disabled due to a current bug, and both
with &amp; without use of queued rwlocks &amp; spinlocks:

  Forks | v4.12-rc4 | +qlocks  | Change
 -------|-----------|----------|--------
     10 | 52630.32  | 53316.31 | +1.01%
     20 | 51777.80  | 52623.15 | +1.02%
     30 | 51645.92  | 52517.26 | +1.02%
     40 | 51634.88  | 52419.89 | +1.02%
     50 | 51506.75  | 52307.81 | +1.02%
     60 | 51500.74  | 52322.72 | +1.02%
     70 | 51434.81  | 52288.60 | +1.02%
     80 | 51423.22  | 52434.85 | +1.02%
     90 | 51428.65  | 52410.10 | +1.02%

The kernels used for these tests also had my "MIPS: Hardcode cpu_has_*
where known at compile time due to ISA" patch applied, which allows the
kernel_uses_llsc checks in cmpxchg() &amp; xchg() to be optimised away at
compile time.
