<title>ARM: 7302/1: Add TLB flushing for both entries in a PMD</title>

<content type='text'>
Linux uses two PMD entries for a PTE with the classic page table format,
covering 2MB range. However, the __pte_free_tlb() function only adds a
single TLB flush corresponding to 1MB range covering 'addr'. On
Cortex-A15, level 1 entries can be cached by the TLB independently of
the level 2 entries and without additional flushing a PMD entry would be
left pointing at the wrong PTE. The patch limits the TLB flushing range
to two 4KB pages around the 1MB boundary within PMD.

<title>ARM: 7293/1: logical_cpu_map: decouple CPU mapping from SMP</title>

<id>eb50439b92b6298bf209a982f295ba9c0f7cb30b</id>
<content type='text'>
It turns out that the logical CPU mapping is useful even when !CONFIG_SMP
for manipulation of devices like interrupt and power controllers when
running a UP kernel on a CPU other than 0. This can happen when kexecing
a UP image from an SMP kernel.

In the future, multi-cluster systems running AMP configurations will
require something similar for mapping cluster IDs, so it makes sense to
decouple this logic in preparation for this support.

ARM: fixes for ARM platforms

Some fallout from the 3.3. merge window as well as a couple bug fixes
for older preexisting bugs that seem valid to include at this time:

* sched_clock changes broke picoxcell, fix included
* BSYM bugs causing issues with thumb2-built kernels on SMP
* Missing module.h include on msm.
* A collection of bugfixes for samsung platforms that didn't make it into
  the first pull requests.

* tag 'arm-soc-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc:
  ARM: make BSYM macro assembly only
  ARM: highbank: remove incorrect BSYM usage
  ARM: imx: remove incorrect BSYM usage
  ARM: exynos: remove incorrect BSYM usage
  ARM: ux500: add missing ENDPROC to headsmp.S
  ARM: msm: Add missing ENDPROC to headsmp.S

  ARM: S3C64XX: Fix interrupt configuration for PCA935x on Cragganmore
  ARM: S3C64XX: Fix the memory mapped GPIOs on Cragganmore
  ARM: S3C64XX: Remove hsmmc1 from Cragganmore
  ARM: S3C64XX: Remove unconditional power domain disables
  ARM: SAMSUNG: Declare struct platform_device in plat/s3c64xx-spi.h
  ARM: SAMSUNG: dma-ops.h needs mach/dma.h
  ARM: SAMSUNG: Guard against multiple inclusion of plat/dma.h
  ARM: picoxcell: fix sched_clock() cleanup fallout
  ARM: msm: vreg is a module and so needs module.h

<id>29ef73b7a823b77a7cd0bdd7d7cded3fb6c2587b</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch provides functionality to audit system call events on the
ARM platform. The implementation was based off the structure of the
MIPS platform and information in this
(http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/arm/2009-October/000382.html)
mailing list thread. The required audit_syscall_exit and
audit_syscall_entry checks were added to ptrace using the standard
registers for system call values (r0 through r3). A thread information
flag was added for auditing (TIF_SYSCALL_AUDIT) and a meta-flag was
added (_TIF_SYSCALL_WORK) to simplify modifications to the syscall
entry/exit. Now, if either the TRACE flag is set or the AUDIT flag is
set, the syscall_trace function will be executed. The prober changes
were made to Kconfig to allow CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL to be enabled.

Due to platform availability limitations, this patch was only tested
on the Android platform running the modified "android-goldfish-2.6.29"
kernel. A test compile was performed using Code Sourcery's
cross-compilation toolset and the current linux-3.0 stable kernel. The
changes compile without error. I'm hoping, due to the simple modifications,
the patch is "obviously correct".
