commit d4a5c59a955bba96b273ec1a5885bada24c56979 upstream.

au1xmmc is split somewhat awkwardly into the main mmc subsystem driver,
and callbacks in platform_data that sit under arch/mips/ and are
always built in.  The latter than call mmc_detect_change through
symbol_get.  Remove the use of symbol_get by requiring the driver
to be built in.  In the future the interrupt handlers for card
insert/eject detection should probably be moved into the main driver,
and which point it can be built modular again.

commit 0faa29c4207e6e29cfc81b427df60e326c37083a upstream.

The spitz board file uses the obscure symbol_get() function
to optionally call a function from sharpsl_pm.c if that is
built. However, the two files are always built together
these days, and have been for a long time, so this can
be changed to a normal function call.

<title>lockdep: fix static memory detection even more</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 0a6b58c5cd0dfd7961e725212f0fc8dfc5d96195 upstream.

On the parisc architecture, lockdep reports for all static objects which
are in the __initdata section (e.g. "setup_done" in devtmpfs,
"kthreadd_done" in init/main.c) this warning:

	INFO: trying to register non-static key.

The warning itself is wrong, because those objects are in the __initdata
section, but the section itself is on parisc outside of range from
_stext to _end, which is why the static_obj() functions returns a wrong
answer.

While fixing this issue, I noticed that the whole existing check can
be simplified a lot.
Instead of checking against the _stext and _end symbols (which include
code areas too) just check for the .data and .bss segments (since we check a
data object). This can be done with the existing is_kernel_core_data()
macro.

In addition objects in the __initdata section can be checked with
init_section_contains(), and is_kernel_rodata() allows keys to be in the
_ro_after_init section.

This partly reverts and simplifies commit bac59d18c701 ("x86/setup: Fix static
memory detection").

<title>ARM: module: Use module_init_layout_section() to spot init sections</title>

commit a6846234f45801441f0e31a8b37f901ef0abd2df upstream.

Today module_frob_arch_sections() spots init sections from their
'init' prefix, and uses this to keep the init PLTs separate from the rest.

get_module_plt() uses within_module_init() to determine if a
location is in the init text or not, but this depends on whether
core code thought this was an init section.

Naturally the logic is different.

module_init_layout_section() groups the init and exit text together if
module unloading is disabled, as the exit code will never run. The result
is kernels with this configuration can't load all their modules because
there are not enough PLTs for the combined init+exit section.

A previous patch exposed module_init_layout_section(), use that so the
logic is the same.

In hw_breakpoint_control(), encode_ctrl_reg() has already encoded the
MWPnCFG3_LoadEn/MWPnCFG3_StoreEn bits in info-&gt;ctrl. We don't need to
add (1 &lt;&lt; MWPnCFG3_LoadEn | 1 &lt;&lt; MWPnCFG3_StoreEn) unconditionally.

Otherwise we can't set read watchpoint and write watchpoint separately.

<title>LoongArch: Ensure FP/SIMD registers in the core dump file is up to date</title>

<id>656f9aec07dba7c61d469727494a5d1b18d0bef4</id>
<content type='text'>
This is a port of commit 379eb01c21795edb4c ("riscv: Ensure the value
of FP registers in the core dump file is up to date").

The values of FP/SIMD registers in the core dump file come from the
thread.fpu. However, kernel saves the FP/SIMD registers only before
scheduling out the process. If no process switch happens during the
exception handling, kernel will not have a chance to save the latest
values of FP/SIMD registers. So it may cause their values in the core
dump file incorrect. To solve this problem, force fpr_get()/simd_get()
to save the FP/SIMD registers into the thread.fpu if the target task
equals the current task.
