Make &lt;asm-generic/local64.h&gt; mandatory in include/asm-generic/Kbuild and
remove all arch/*/include/asm/local64.h arch-specific files since they
only #include &lt;asm-generic/local64.h&gt;.

This fixes build errors on arch/c6x/ and arch/nios2/ for
block/blk-iocost.c.

Build-tested on 21 of 25 arch-es.  (tools problems on the others)

Yes, we could even rename &lt;asm-generic/local64.h&gt; to
&lt;linux/local64.h&gt; and change all #includes to use
&lt;linux/local64.h&gt; instead.

Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt:
 "The major update to this release is that there's a new arch config
  option called CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS.

  Currently, only x86_64 enables it. All the ftrace callbacks now take a
  struct ftrace_regs instead of a struct pt_regs. If the architecture
  has HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS enabled, then the ftrace_regs will
  have enough information to read the arguments of the function being
  traced, as well as access to the stack pointer.

  This way, if a user (like live kernel patching) only cares about the
  arguments, then it can avoid using the heavier weight "regs" callback,
  that puts in enough information in the struct ftrace_regs to simulate
  a breakpoint exception (needed for kprobes).

  A new config option that audits the timestamps of the ftrace ring
  buffer at most every event recorded.

  Ftrace recursion protection has been cleaned up to move the protection
  to the callback itself (this saves on an extra function call for those
  callbacks).

  Perf now handles its own RCU protection and does not depend on ftrace
  to do it for it (saving on that extra function call).

  New debug option to add "recursed_functions" file to tracefs that
  lists all the places that triggered the recursion protection of the
  function tracer. This will show where things need to be fixed as
  recursion slows down the function tracer.

  The eval enum mapping updates done at boot up are now offloaded to a
  work queue, as it caused a noticeable pause on slow embedded boards.

  Various clean ups and last minute fixes"

Pull TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL updates from Jens Axboe:
 "This sits on top of of the core entry/exit and x86 entry branch from
  the tip tree, which contains the generic and x86 parts of this work.

  Here we convert the rest of the archs to support TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL.

  With that done, we can get rid of JOBCTL_TASK_WORK from task_work and
  signal.c, and also remove a deadlock work-around in io_uring around
  knowing that signal based task_work waking is invoked with the sighand
  wait queue head lock.

  The motivation for this work is to decouple signal notify based
  task_work, of which io_uring is a heavy user of, from sighand. The
  sighand lock becomes a huge contention point, particularly for
  threaded workloads where it's shared between threads. Even outside of
  threaded applications it's slower than it needs to be.

  Roman Gershman &lt;romger@amazon.com&gt; reported that his networked
  workload dropped from 1.6M QPS at 80% CPU to 1.0M QPS at 100% CPU
  after io_uring was changed to use TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL. The time was all
  spent hammering on the sighand lock, showing 57% of the CPU time there
  [1].

  There are further cleanups possible on top of this. One example is
  TIF_PATCH_PENDING, where a patch already exists to use
  TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL instead. Hopefully this will also lead to more
  consolidation, but the work stands on its own as well"

Pull asm-generic cross-architecture timer cleanup from Arnd Bergmann:
 "This cleans up two ancient timer features that were never completed in
  the past, CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS and CONFIG_ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET.

  There was only one user left for the ARCH_USES_GETTIMEOFFSET variant

  changing to use modern timekeeping, we remove the platform entirely as
  Russell no longer uses his machine and nobody else seems to have one
  any more.

  The conditional code for using arch_gettimeoffset() is removed as a

  For CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, there are still a couple of platforms
  not using clockevent drivers: parisc, ia64, most of m68k, and one Arm
  platform. These all do timer ticks slighly differently, and this gets
  cleaned up to the point they at least all call the same helper

Pull asm-generic mmu-context cleanup from Arnd Bergmann:
 "This is a cleanup series from Nicholas Piggin, preparing for later
  changes. The asm/mmu_context.h header are generalized and common code
  moved to asm-gneneric/mmu_context.h.

  This saves a bit of code and makes it easier to change in the future"

 "Dead code removal, mostly.

  that 7 times in a row in ptrace_[sg]etregs(), *after* having done it
  ourselves in the caller; location where the user registers have been
  spilled won't change under us, and we can bloody well just call

Pull kmap updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The new preemtible kmap_local() implementation:

   - Consolidate all kmap_atomic() internals into a generic
     implementation which builds the base for the kmap_local() API and
     make the kmap_atomic() interface wrappers which handle the
     disabling/enabling of preemption and pagefaults.

   - Switch the storage from per-CPU to per task and provide scheduler
     support for clearing mapping when scheduling out and restoring them
     when scheduling back in.

   - Merge the migrate_disable/enable() code, which is also part of the
     scheduler pull request. This was required to make the kmap_local()
     interface available which does not disable preemption when a
     mapping is established. It has to disable migration instead to
     guarantee that the virtual address of the mapped slot is the same
     across preemption.

   - Provide better debug facilities: guard pages and enforced
     utilization of the mapping mechanics on 64bit systems when the
     architecture allows it.

   - Provide the new kmap_local() API which can now be used to cleanup
     the kmap_atomic() usage sites all over the place. Most of the usage
     sites do not require the implicit disabling of preemption and
     pagefaults so the penalty on 64bit and 32bit non-highmem systems is
     removed and quite some of the code can be simplified. A wholesale
     conversion is not possible because some usage depends on the
     implicit side effects and some need to be cleaned up because they
     work around these side effects.

     The migrate disable side effect is only effective on highmem
     systems and when enforced debugging is enabled. On 64bit and 32bit
     non-highmem systems the overhead is completely avoided"

We call arch_cpu_idle() with RCU disabled, but then use
local_irq_{en,dis}able(), which invokes tracing, which relies on RCU.

Switch all arch_cpu_idle() implementations to use
raw_local_irq_{en,dis}able() and carefully manage the
lockdep,rcu,tracing state like we do in entry.

(XXX: we really should change arch_cpu_idle() to not return with
interrupts enabled)
