Generated files are also checked by sparse that's why add newline to
remove sparse (C=1) warning.

The issue was found on Microblaze and reported like this:
./arch/microblaze/include/generated/uapi/asm/unistd_32.h:438:45: warning:
no newline at end of file

Mips and PowerPC have it already but let's align with style used by m68k.

 "Here are three SPDX patches for 5.7-rc1.

  One fixes up the SPDX tag for a single driver, while the other two go
  through the tree and add SPDX tags for all of the .gitignore files as
  needed.

  Nothing too complex, but you will get a merge conflict with your
  current tree, that should be trivial to handle (one file modified by
  two things, one file deleted.)

  All three of these have been in linux-next for a while, with no
  reported issues other than the merge conflict"

Pull timekeeping and timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Core:

   - Consolidation of the vDSO build infrastructure to address the
     difficulties of cross-builds for ARM64 compat vDSO libraries by
     restricting the exposure of header content to the vDSO build.

     This is achieved by splitting out header content into separate
     headers. which contain only the minimaly required information which
     is necessary to build the vDSO. These new headers are included from
     the kernel headers and the vDSO specific files.

   - Enhancements to the generic vDSO library allowing more fine grained
     control over the compiled in code, further reducing architecture
     specific storage and preparing for adopting the generic library by
     PPC.

   - Cleanup and consolidation of the exit related code in posix CPU
     timers.

   - Small cleanups and enhancements here and there

  Drivers:

   - The obligatory new drivers: Ingenic JZ47xx and X1000 TCU support

   - Correct the clock rate of PIT64b global clock

   - setup_irq() cleanup

   - Preparation for PWM and suspend support for the TI DM timer

   - Expand the fttmr010 driver to support ast2600 systems

   - The usual small fixes, enhancements and cleanups all over the
     place"

Enable DMI scanning on the MIPS architecture, this setups DMI identifiers
(dmi_system_id) for printing it out on task dumps and prepares DIMM entry
information (dmi_memdev_info) from the SMBIOS table. With this patch, the
driver can easily match various of mainboards.

In the SMBIOS reference specification, the table anchor string "_SM_" is
present in the address range 0xF0000 to 0xFFFFF on a 16-byte boundary,
but there exists a special case for Loongson platform, when call function
dmi_early_remap, it should specify the start address to 0xFFFE000 due to
it is reserved for SMBIOS and can be normally access in the BIOS.

This patch works fine on the Loongson 3A3000 platform which belongs to
MIPS architecture and has no influence on the other architectures such
as x86 and ARM.

Additionally, in order to avoid the unknown risks on the mips platform
which is not MACH_LOONGSON64, the DMI config is better to depend on
MACH_LOONGSON64. If other mips platform also needs this DMI feature in
the future, the "depends on" condition can be modified.

Pull in mips-fixes avoiding conflicts with more CI20 DT changes.

A few MIPS fixes:

- DT fixes for CI20

- Fix command line handling

- Correct patchwork URL

<title>Use ELF_BASE_PLATFORM to pass ISA level</title>

Some userland application/program runtime/dynamic loaded need to
know about the current ISA level to use the best runtime.
While kernel doesn't provides this info.

ELF_PLATFORM only provides some info about the CPU, with very few info,
for example, the value is "mips" for both 24Kc and P6600.

Currently ELF_BASE_PLATFORM is not used by MIPS (only by powerpc).
So we cant set its value as:
  mips2, mips3, mips4, mips5,
  mips32, mips32r2, mips32r6
  mips64, mips64r2, mips64r6
Then in userland, we can get it by:
  getauxval(AT_BASE_PLATFORM)

The only problem is that it seems has different defination than ppc:
  on ppc, it is the mircoarchitecture
while now we use it as ISA level on MIPS.
