Nathan Chancellor reports that the recent change to pci_iounmap in
commit 9caea0007601 ("parisc: Declare pci_iounmap() parisc version only
when CONFIG_PCI enabled") causes build errors on arm64.

It took me about two hours to convince myself that I think I know what
the logic of that mess of #ifdef's in the &lt;asm-generic/io.h&gt; header file
really aim to do, and rewrite it to be easier to follow.

Famous last words.

Anyway, the code has now been lifted from that grotty header file into
lib/pci_iomap.c, and has fairly extensive comments about what the logic
is.  It also avoids indirecting through another confusing (and badly
named) helper function that has other preprocessor config conditionals.

Let's see what odd architecture did something else strange in this area
to break things.  But my arm64 cross build is clean.

Pull x86 fixes from Borislav Petkov:

 - Prevent a infinite loop in the MCE recovery on return to user space,
   which was caused by a second MCE queueing work for the same page and
   thereby creating a circular work list.

 - Make kern_addr_valid() handle existing PMD entries, which are marked
   not present in the higher level page table, correctly instead of
   blindly dereferencing them.

 - Pass a valid address to sanitize_phys(). This was caused by the
   mixture of inclusive and exclusive ranges. memtype_reserve() expect
   'end' being exclusive, but sanitize_phys() wants it inclusive. This
   worked so far, but with end being the end of the physical address
   space the fail is exposed.

 - Increase the maximum supported GPIO numbers for 64bit. Newer SoCs
   exceed the previous maximum.

<title>dmascc: use proper 'virt_to_bus()' rather than casting to 'int'</title>

<content type='text'>
The old dmascc driver depends on the legacy ISA_DMA_API, and blindly
just casts the kernel virtual address to 'int' for set_dma_addr().

That works only incidentally, and because the high bits of the address
will be ignored anyway. And on 64-bit architectures it causes warnings.

Admittedly, 64-bit architectures with ISA are basically dead - I think
the only example of this is alpha, and nobody would ever use the dmascc
driver there.  But hey, the fix is easy enough, the end result is
cleaner, and it's yet another configuration that now builds without
warnings.

If somebody actually uses this driver on an alpha and this fixes it for
you, please email me.  Because that is just incredibly bizarre.

<title>alpha: enable GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP unconditionally</title>

<id>4fef6115903afed5a7f21b387ad132b4c8838bc7</id>
<content type='text'>
With the previous commit (9caea0007601: "parisc: Declare pci_iounmap()
parisc version only when CONFIG_PCI enabled") we can now enable
GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP unconditionally on alpha, and if PCI is not enabled we
will just get the nice empty helper functions that allow mixed-bus
drivers to build.

Example driver: the old 3com/3c59x.c driver works with either the PCI or
the EISA version of the 3x59x card, but wouldn't build in an EISA-only
configuration because of missing pci_iomap() and pci_iounmap() dummy
wrappers.

Most of the other PCI infrastructure just becomes empty wrappers even
without GENERIC_PCI_IOMAP, and it's not obvious that the pci_iomap
functionality shouldn't do the same, but this works.
