In cc97ab235f3f ("MIPS: Simplify FP context initialization), init_fp_ctx
just initialize the fp/msa context, and own_fp_inatomic just restore
FCSR and 64bit FP regs from it, but miss MSACSR and upper MSA regs for
MSA, so MSACSR and MSA upper regs's value from previous task on current
cpu can leak into current task and cause unpredictable behavior when MSA
context not initialized.

<title>MIPS: perf: Fix wrong check condition of Loongson event IDs</title>

<content type='text'>
According to the user's manual chapter 8.2.1 of Loongson 3A2000 CPU [1]
and 3A3000 CPU [2], we should take some event IDs such as 274, 358, 359
and 360 as valid in the check condition, otherwise they are recognized
as "not supported", fix it.

<title>MIPS: BMIPS: Also call bmips_cpu_setup() for secondary cores</title>

The initialization done by bmips_cpu_setup() typically affects both
threads of a given core, on 7435 which supports 2 cores and 2 threads,
logical CPU number 2 and 3 would not run this initialization.

<title>all arch: remove system call sys_sysctl</title>

<content type='text'>
Since commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"),
sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error.

We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years
and believe there are no more users.  Even if there are users of this
interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they
probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any
longer.

So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.

Add helpers to wrap the get_fs/set_fs magic for undoing any damange done
by set_fs(KERNEL_DS).  There is no real functional benefit, but this
documents the intent of these calls better, and will allow stubbing the
functions out easily for kernels builds that do not allow address space
overrides in the future.

<title>mm/sparse: cleanup the code surrounding memory_present()</title>

<id>c89ab04febf97d2db8ca4ef8e2866fadc474351b</id>
<content type='text'>
After removal of CONFIG_HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP we have two equivalent
functions that call memory_present() for each region in memblock.memory:
sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() and membocks_present().

Moreover, all architectures have a call to either of these functions
preceding the call to sparse_init() and in the most cases they are called
one after the other.

Mark the regions from memblock.memory as present during sparce_init() by
making sparse_init() call memblocks_present(), make memblocks_present()
and memory_present() functions static and remove redundant
sparse_memory_present_with_active_regions() function.

Also remove no longer required HAVE_MEMORY_PRESENT configuration option.
