<content type='text'>
commit a6e2f029ae34f41adb6ae3812c32c5d326e1abd2 upstream.

Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the
generic version, which previously only supported big-endian.

Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in
any case is also not present for the existing BE-only
implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under
CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS.

Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures
that didn't previously have it.

[ Upstream commit 77d6273e79e3a86552fcf10cdd31a69b46ed2ce6 ]

call12 can't be safely used as the first call in the inline function,
because the compiler does not extend the stack frame of the bounding
function accordingly, which may result in corruption of local variables.

If a call needs to be done, do call8 first followed by call12.

For pure assembly code in _switch_to increase stack frame size of the
bounding function.

<title>xtensa: provide __NR_sync_file_range2 instead of __NR_sync_file_range</title>

[ Upstream commit 01e84c70fe40c8111f960987bcf7f931842e6d07 ]

xtensa actually uses sync_file_range2 implementation, so it should
define __NR_sync_file_range2 as other architectures that use that
function. That fixes userspace interface (that apparently never worked)
and avoids special-casing xtensa in libc implementations.
See the thread ending at
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/uclibc/2015-February/048833.html

Xtensa improvements for 3.18:

- add seccomp, getrandom, and memfd_create syscalls;
- add defconfigs for KC705 and SMP LX200;
- fix ISS and xtfpga Kconfig dependencies so that more randconfigs
  are buildable;
- fix umount syscall;
- implement pgprot_noncached.

Userspace actually passes single parameter (path name) to the umount
syscall, so new umount just fails. Fix it by requesting old umount
syscall implementation and re-wiring umount to it.

   - Remove the unused atomic_or_long() method

   - Consolidate and compress atomic ops implementations between

     ops.

   - Rewrite generic atomic support to only require cmpxchg() from an

The default pgprot_noncached doesn't do anything. This leads to issues
when drivers rely on it to disable caching in userspace mappings.
Implement pgprot_noncached properly so that caching of userspace mappings
could be controlled.
