Pull timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A set of timekeeping/VDSO updates:

   - Preparatory work to allow S390 to switch over to the generic VDSO
     implementation.

     S390 requires that the VDSO data pointer is handed in to the
     counter read function when time namespace support is enabled.
     Adding the pointer is a NOOP for all other architectures because
     the compiler is supposed to optimize that out when it is unused in
     the architecture specific inline. The change also solved a similar
     problem for MIPS which fortunately has time namespaces not yet
     enabled.

     S390 needs to update clock related VDSO data independent of the
     timekeeping updates. This was solved so far with yet another
     sequence counter in the S390 implementation. A better solution is
     to utilize the already existing VDSO sequence count for this. The
     core code now exposes helper functions which allow to serialize
     against the timekeeper code and against concurrent readers.

     S390 needs extra data for their clock readout function. The initial
     common VDSO data structure did not provide a way to add that. It
     now has an embedded architecture specific struct embedded which
     defaults to an empty struct.

     Doing this now avoids tree dependencies and conflicts post rc1 and
     allows all other architectures which work on generic VDSO support
     to work from a common upstream base.

   - A trivial comment fix"

<content type='text'>
For most architectures that support &gt;2 levels of page tables,
pmd_alloc_one() is a wrapper for __get_free_pages(), sometimes with
__GFP_ZERO and sometimes followed by memset(0) instead.

More elaborate versions on arm64 and x86 account memory for the user page
tables and call to pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() as the part of PMD page
initialization.

Move the arm64 version to include/asm-generic/pgalloc.h and use the
generic version on several architectures.

The pgtable_pmd_page_ctor() is a NOP when ARCH_ENABLE_SPLIT_PMD_PTLOCK is
not enabled, so there is no functional change for most architectures
except of the addition of __GFP_ACCOUNT for allocation of user page
tables.

The pmd_free() is a wrapper for free_page() in all the cases, so no
functional change here.

<title>mm: remove unneeded includes of &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt;</title>

Patch series "mm: cleanup usage of &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt;"

Most architectures have very similar versions of pXd_alloc_one() and
pXd_free_one() for intermediate levels of page table.  These patches add
generic versions of these functions in &lt;asm-generic/pgalloc.h&gt; and enable
use of the generic functions where appropriate.

In addition, functions declared and defined in &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; headers are
used mostly by core mm and early mm initialization in arch and there is no
actual reason to have the &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; included all over the place.
The first patch in this series removes unneeded includes of
&lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt;

In the end it didn't work out as neatly as I hoped and moving
pXd_alloc_track() definitions to &lt;asm-generic/pgalloc.h&gt; would require
unnecessary changes to arches that have custom page table allocations, so
I've decided to move lib/ioremap.c to mm/ and make pgalloc-track.h local
to mm/.

This patch (of 8):

In most cases &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; header is required only for allocations of
page table memory.  Most of the .c files that include that header do not
use symbols declared in &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; and do not require that header.

As for the other header files that used to include &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt;, it is
possible to move that include into the .c file that actually uses symbols
from &lt;asm/pgalloc.h&gt; and drop the include from the header file.

The process was somewhat automated using

	sed -i -E '/[&lt;"]asm\/pgalloc\.h/d' \
                $(grep -L -w -f /tmp/xx \
                        $(git grep -E -l '[&lt;"]asm/pgalloc\.h'))

where /tmp/xx contains all the symbols defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgalloc.h.

<title>vdso/treewide: Add vdso_data pointer argument to __arch_get_hw_counter()</title>

MIPS already uses and S390 will need the vdso data pointer in
__arch_get_hw_counter().

This works nicely as long as the architecture does not support time
namespaces in the VDSO. With time namespaces enabled the regular
accessor to the vdso data pointer __arch_get_vdso_data() will return the
namespace specific VDSO data page for tasks which are part of a
non-root time namespace. This would cause the architectures which need
the vdso data pointer in __arch_get_hw_counter() to access the wrong
vdso data page.

Add a vdso_data pointer argument to __arch_get_hw_counter() and hand it in
from the call sites in the core code. For architectures which do not need
the data pointer in their counter accessor function the compiler will just
optimize it out.

Fix up all existing architecture implementations and make MIPS utilize the
pointer instead of invoking the accessor function.

No functional change and no change in the resulting object code (except
MIPS).

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Improve uclamp performance by using a static key for the fast path

 - Add the "sched_util_clamp_min_rt_default" sysctl, to optimize for
   better power efficiency of RT tasks on battery powered devices.
   (The default is to maximize performance &amp; reduce RT latencies.)

 - Improve utime and stime tracking accuracy, which had a fixed boundary
   of error, which created larger and larger relative errors as the
   values become larger. This is now replaced with more precise
   arithmetics, using the new mul_u64_u64_div_u64() helper in math64.h.

 - Improve the deadline scheduler, such as making it capacity aware

 - Improve frequency-invariant scheduling

 - Misc cleanups in energy/power aware scheduling

 - Add sched_update_nr_running tracepoint to track changes to nr_running

 - Documentation additions and updates

 - Misc cleanups and smaller fixes
