commit 8e748c8d09a9314eedb5c6367d9acfaacddcdc88 upstream.

KVM guest kernels for trap &amp; emulate run in user mode, with a modified
set of kernel memory segments. However the fixmap address is still in
the normal KSeg3 region at 0xfffe0000 regardless, causing problems when
cache alias handling makes use of them when handling copy on write.

Therefore define FIXADDR_TOP as 0x7ffe0000 in the guest kernel mapped
region when CONFIG_KVM_GUEST is defined.

commit 7f8998c7aef3ac9c5f3f2943e083dfa6302e90d0 upstream.

The different architectures used their own (and different) declarations:

    extern __visible const void __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;
    extern const void __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;
    extern long __nosave_begin, __nosave_end;

Consolidate them using the first variant in &lt;asm/sections.h&gt;.

commit bcec7c8da6b092b1ff3327fd83c2193adb12f684 upstream.

Get rid of the WANT_COMPAT_REG_H test and instead define both the 32-
and 64-bit register offset definitions at the same time with
MIPS{32,64}_ prefixes, then define the existing EF_* names to the
correct definitions for the kernel's bitness.

This patch is a prerequisite of the following bug fix patch.

<title>MIPS: ftrace: Fix a microMIPS build problem</title>

<content type='text'>
commit aedd153f5bb5b1f1d6d9142014f521ae2ec294cc upstream.

Code before the .fixup section needs to have the .insn directive.
This has no side effects on MIPS32/64 but it affects the way microMIPS
loads the address for the return label.

Fixes the following build problem:
mips-linux-gnu-ld: arch/mips/built-in.o: .fixup+0x4a0: Unsupported jump between
ISA modes; consider recompiling with interlinking enabled.
mips-linux-gnu-ld: final link failed: Bad value
Makefile:819: recipe for target 'vmlinux' failed

The fix is similar to 1658f914ff91c3bf ("MIPS: microMIPS:
Disable LL/SC and fix linker bug.")

commit 137f7df8cead00688524c82360930845396b8a21 upstream.

Add _TIF_SECCOMP flag to _TIF_WORK_SYSCALL_ENTRY to indicate
that the system call needs to be checked against a seccomp filter.

Fengguang Wu, Oleg Nesterov and Peter Zijlstra tracked down
a kernel crash to a GCC bug: GCC miscompiles certain 'asm goto'
constructs, as outlined here:

Implement a workaround suggested by Jakub Jelinek.
