When building the kernel with W=1 we get a lot of -Wmissing-prototypes
warnings, which are trivial in nature and easy to fix - and which may
mask some real future bugs if the prototypes get out of sync with
the function definition.

This patch fixes most of -Wmissing-prototypes warnings which
are in the root directory of arch/x86/kernel, not including
the subdirectories.

These are the warnings fixed in this patch:

<title>x86/corruption-check: Fix panic in memory_corruption_check() when boot option without value is provided</title>

memory_corruption_check[{_period|_size}]()'s handlers do not check input
argument before passing it to kstrtoul() or simple_strtoull(). The argument
would be a NULL pointer if each of the kernel parameters, without its
value, is set in command line and thus cause the following panic.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode &amp; Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:

  arch/x86/Kconfig:config X86_CHECK_BIOS_CORRUPTION
  arch/x86/Kconfig:       bool "Check for low memory corruption"

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by
anyone.

Lets remove the couple traces of modularity so that when reading
the code there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the
non-modular case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this
commit.

<title>mm/memblock: add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on attribute</title>

Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a
recoverable machine check.  Linux has included code for some time to
process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover
completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by
reading from disk).

But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code
execution.  Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever
be able to recover.

Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing.

Gen1: All memory is mirrored
	Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the
	     mirror
	Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications

Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers
	Pro: Keep more of the capacity
	Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from
	     mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance

Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory
      controller
	Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance
	Con: I have to write memory management code to implement

The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations.
This has been broken into two phases:

1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time
   allocations

2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the
   unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to
   select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because
   page_alloc.c is scary).

This patch (of 3):

Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on
attribute.  No functional changes

2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the
   unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to
   select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because
   page_alloc.c is scary).

This patch (of 3):

Add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory based on
attribute.  No functional changes

<id>9a28f9dc8d10b619af9a37b1e27c41ada5415629</id>
<content type='text'>
Update X86 code to use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of MAX_NUMNODES while
calling memblock APIs, because memblock API will be changed to use
NUMA_NO_NODE and will produce warning during boot otherwise.

<title>memblock, x86: Replace memblock_x86_reserve/free_range() with generic ones</title>

<id>24aa07882b672fff2da2f5c955759f0bd13d32d5</id>
<content type='text'>
Other than sanity check and debug message, the x86 specific version of
memblock reserve/free functions are simple wrappers around the generic
versions - memblock_reserve/free().

This patch adds debug messages with caller identification to the
generic versions and replaces x86 specific ones and kills them.
arch/x86/include/asm/memblock.h and arch/x86/mm/memblock.c are empty
after this change and removed.
