commit 4d752e5af63753ab5140fc282929b98eaa4bd12e upstream.

commit b344d6a83d01 ("parisc: add support for cmpxchg on u8 pointers")
can generate a sparse warning ("cast truncates bits from constant
value"), which has been reported several times [1] [2] [3].

The original code worked as expected, but anyway, let silence such
sparse warning as what others did [4].

[ Upstream commit 31680c1d1595a59e17c14ec036b192a95f8e5f4a ]

Bump 64-bit IRQ stack size to 64 KB.

I had a kernel IRQ stack overflow on the mx3210 debian buildd machine.  This patch increases the
64-bit IRQ stack size to 64 KB.  The 64-bit stack size needs to be larger than the 32-bit stack
size since registers are twice as big.

commit e4a42c82e943b97ce124539fcd7a47445b43fa0d upstream.

Redefine GZIP, BZIP2, LZOP variables as KGZIP, KBZIP2, KLZOP resp.
GZIP, BZIP2, LZOP env variables are reserved by the tools. The original
attempt to redefine them internally doesn't work in makefiles/scripts
intercall scenarios, e.g., "make GZIP=gzip bindeb-pkg" and results in
broken builds. There can be other broken build commands because of this,
so the universal solution is to use non-reserved env variables for the
compression tools.

<content type='text'>
commit 8dfb61dcbaceb19a5ded5e9c9dcf8d05acc32294 upstream.

Allow user to use alternative implementations of compression tools,
such as pigz, pbzip2, pxz. For example, multi-threaded tools to
speed up the build:
$ make GZIP=pigz BZIP2=pbzip2

Variables _GZIP, _BZIP2, _LZOP are used internally because original env
vars are reserved by the tools. The use of GZIP in gzip tool is obsolete
since 2015. However, alternative implementations (e.g., pigz) still rely
on it. BZIP2, BZIP, LZOP vars are not obsolescent.

The credit goes to @grsecurity.

As a sidenote, for multi-threaded lzma, xz compression one can use:
$ export XZ_OPT="--threads=0"

commit e96ebd589debd9a6a793608c4ec7019c38785dea upstream.

This patch implements the __smp_store_release and __smp_load_acquire barriers
using ordered stores and loads.  This avoids the sync instruction present in
the generic implementation.

Add support for cmpxchg on u8 pointers.
