[ Upstream commit 7dd4fcf5b70694dc961eb6b954673e4fc9730dbd ]

On panic, all other CPUs are stopped except the one which had
hit panic. To keep console alive, we need to migrate hvcons irq
to panicked CPU.

[ Upstream commit deba804c90642c8ed0f15ac1083663976d578f54 ]

Greetings,

GCC 7 introduced the -Wstringop-overflow flag to detect buffer overflows
in calls to string handling functions [1][2]. Due to the way
``empty_zero_page'' is declared in arch/sparc/include/setup.h, this
causes a warning to trigger at compile time in the function mem_init(),
which is subsequently converted to an error. The ensuing patch fixes
this issue and aligns the declaration of empty_zero_page to that of
other architectures. Thank you.

Cheers,
Orlando.

<title>sparc64: Fix register corruption in top-most kernel stack frame during boot.</title>

Meelis Roos reported that kernels built with gcc-4.9 do not boot, we
eventually narrowed this down to only impacting machines using
UltraSPARC-III and derivitive cpus.

The crash happens right when the first user process is spawned:

[   54.451346] Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004
[   54.451346]
[   54.571516] CPU: 1 PID: 1 Comm: init Not tainted 3.16.0-rc2-00211-gd7933ab #96
[   54.666431] Call Trace:
[   54.698453]  [0000000000762f8c] panic+0xb0/0x224
[   54.759071]  [000000000045cf68] do_exit+0x948/0x960
[   54.823123]  [000000000042cbc0] fault_in_user_windows+0xe0/0x100
[   54.902036]  [0000000000404ad0] __handle_user_windows+0x0/0x10
[   54.978662] Press Stop-A (L1-A) to return to the boot prom
[   55.050713] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode=0x00000004

Further investigation showed that compiling only per_cpu_patch() with
an older compiler fixes the boot.

Detailed analysis showed that the function is not being miscompiled by
gcc-4.9, but it is using a different register allocation ordering.

With the gcc-4.9 compiled function, something during the code patching
causes some of the %i* input registers to get corrupted.  Perhaps
we have a TLB miss path into the firmware that is deep enough to
cause a register window spill and subsequent restore when we get
back from the TLB miss trap.

Let's plug this up by doing two things:

1) Stop using the firmware stack for client interface calls into
   the firmware.  Just use the kernel's stack.

2) As soon as we can, call into a new function "start_early_boot()"
   to put a one-register-window buffer between the firmware's
   deepest stack frame and the top-most initial kernel one.
