<title>UniCore32-bugfix: Remove definitions in asm/bug.h to solve difference between native and cross compiler</title>

For kernel/bound.c being compiled by native compiler, it will generate following errors in gcc 4.4.3:
  CC      kernel/bounds.s
In file included from include/linux/bug.h:4,
                 from include/linux/page-flags.h:9,
                 from kernel/bounds.c:9:
arch/unicore32/include/asm/bug.h:22: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'void'
arch/unicore32/include/asm/bug.h:23: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before 'void'

So, we moved definitions in asm/bug.h to arch/unicore32/kernel/setup.h to solve the problem.

Patches from David Howells &lt;dhowells@redhat.com&gt;:

This is to complete part of the UAPI disintegration for which the
preparatory patches were pulled recently.

Note that there are some fixup patches which are at the base of the
branch aimed at you, plus all arches get the asm-generic branch merged in too.

* 'disintegrate-asm-generic' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers:
  UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate include/asm-generic
  UAPI: Fix conditional header installation handling (notably kvm_para.h on m68k)

asm-generic/unistd.h and a number of asm/unistd.h files have been given
reinclusion guards that allow the guard to be overridden if __SYSCALL is
defined.  Unfortunately, these files define __SYSCALL and don't undefine it
when they've finished with it, thus rendering the guard ineffective.

The reason for this override is to allow the file to be #included multiple
times with different settings on __SYSCALL for purposes like generating syscall
tables.

The following guards are problematic:

arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(__ASM_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL)
arch/arm64/include/asm/unistd32.h:#if !defined(__ASM_UNISTD32_H) || defined(__SYSCALL)
arch/c6x/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_C6X_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL)
arch/hexagon/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_HEXAGON_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL)
arch/openrisc/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(__ASM_OPENRISC_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL)
arch/score/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_SCORE_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL)
arch/tile/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_TILE_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL)
arch/unicore32/include/asm/unistd.h:#if !defined(__UNICORE_UNISTD_H__) || defined(__SYSCALL)
include/asm-generic/unistd.h:#if !defined(_ASM_GENERIC_UNISTD_H) || defined(__SYSCALL)

On the assumption that the guards' ineffectiveness has passed unnoticed, just
remove these guards entirely.

Ease the deployment of clkdev by providing a default asm/clkdev.h for
use if the arch does not have an include/asm/clkdev.h.

Due to limitations in Kbuild we manually add clkdev.h to all
architectures that don't have one rather than having the header appear
by default.
