commit fd0c153daad135d0ec1a53c5dbe6936a724d6ae1 upstream.

If we use the ancient SysV syscall ABI, we'd better have tell the
kernel how to claim that a negative return value is a success.
Use -&gt;orig_r2 for that - it's inaccessible via ptrace, so it's
a fair game for changes and it's normally[*] non-negative on return
from syscall.  Set to -1; syscall is not going to be restart-worthy
by definition, so we won't interfere with that use either.

[*] the only exception is rt_sigreturn(), where we skip the entire
messing with r1/r2 anyway.

Redefine trap handler as below:

 0  N/A        reserved for system calls
 1  SIGUSR1    user-defined signal 1
 2  SIGUSR2    user-defined signal 2
 3  SIGILL     illegal instruction
 4..29         reserved (but implemented to raise SIGILL instead of being undefined)
30  SIGTRAP    KGDB
31  SIGTRAP    trace/breakpoint trap

Remove the end address checking for flushda function. We need to flush
each address line for flushda instruction, from start to end address.
This is because flushda instruction only flush the cache if tag and line
fields are matched.

Change to use ldwio instruction (bypass cache) to load the instruction
that causing trap. Our interest is the actual instruction that executed
by the processor, this should be uncached.
Note, EA address might be an userspace cached address.

<title>nios2: Use preempt_schedule_irq</title>

Follow aa0d53260596 ("ia64: Use preempt_schedule_irq") and use
preempt_schedule_irq instead of enabling/disabling interrupts and
messing around with PREEMPT_ACTIVE in the nios2 low-level preemption
code ourselves. Also get rid of the now needless re-check for
TIF_NEED_RESCHED, preempt_schedule_irq will already take care of
rescheduling.

This also fixes the following build error when building with
CONFIG_PREEMPT:

arch/nios2/kernel/built-in.o: In function `need_resched':
arch/nios2/kernel/entry.S:374: undefined reference to `PREEMPT_ACTIVE'
