<content type='text'>
Building drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nandsim.c on arch/hexagon/ produces a
printk format build warning.  This is due to hexagon's ffs() being
coded as returning long instead of int.

Fix the printk format warning by changing all of hexagon's ffs() and
fls() functions to return int instead of long.  The variables that
they return are already int instead of long.  This return type
matches the return type in &lt;asm-generic/bitops/&gt;.

../drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nandsim.c: In function 'init_nandsim':
../drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nandsim.c:760:2: warning: format '%u' expects argument of type 'unsigned int', but argument 2 has type 'long int' [-Wformat]

There are no ffs() or fls() allmodconfig build errors after making this
change.

Many of the inc/dec ops are mandatory, but for most architectures inc/dec are
simply trivial wrappers around their corresponding add/sub ops.

Let's make all the inc/dec ops optional, so that we can get rid of these
boilerplate wrappers.

The instrumented atomics are updated accordingly.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

<title>atomics/treewide: Make test ops optional</title>

<content type='text'>
Some of the atomics return the result of a test applied after the atomic
operation, and almost all architectures implement these as trivial
wrappers around the underlying atomic. Specifically:

 * &lt;atomic&gt;_inc_and_test(v)    is (&lt;atomic&gt;_inc_return(v)    == 0)
 * &lt;atomic&gt;_dec_and_test(v)    is (&lt;atomic&gt;_dec_return(v)    == 0)
 * &lt;atomic&gt;_sub_and_test(i, v) is (&lt;atomic&gt;_sub_return(i, v) == 0)
 * &lt;atomic&gt;_add_negative(i, v) is (&lt;atomic&gt;_add_return(i, v)  &lt; 0)

Rather than have these definitions duplicated in all architectures, with
minor inconsistencies in formatting and documentation, let's make these
operations optional, with default fallbacks as above. Implementations
must now provide a preprocessor symbol.

The instrumented atomics are updated accordingly.

Both x86 and m68k have custom implementations, which are left as-is,
given preprocessor symbols to avoid being overridden.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

<title>atomics/treewide: Make atomic_fetch_add_unless() optional</title>

Several architectures these have a near-identical implementation based
on atomic_read() and atomic_cmpxchg() which we can instead define in
&lt;linux/atomic.h&gt;, so let's do so, using something close to the existing
x86 implementation with try_cmpxchg().

Where an architecture provides its own atomic_fetch_add_unless(), it
must define a preprocessor symbol for it. The instrumented atomics are
updated accordingly.

Note that arch/arc's existing atomic_fetch_add_unless() had redundant
barriers, as these are already present in its atomic_cmpxchg()
implementation.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

for arch code to do so.

<title>atomics/treewide: Rename __atomic_add_unless() =&gt; atomic_fetch_add_unless()</title>

<id>bfc18e389c7a09fbbbed6bf4032396685b14246e</id>
<content type='text'>
While __atomic_add_unless() was originally intended as a building-block
for atomic_add_unless(), it's now used in a number of places around the
kernel. It's the only common atomic operation named __atomic*(), rather
than atomic_*(), and for consistency it would be better named
atomic_fetch_add_unless().

This lack of consistency is slightly confusing, and gets in the way of
scripting atomics. Given that, let's clean things up and promote it to
an official part of the atomics API, in the form of
atomic_fetch_add_unless().

This patch converts definitions and invocations over to the new name,
including the instrumented version, using the following script:

  ----
  git grep -w __atomic_add_unless | while read line; do
  sed -i '{s/\&lt;__atomic_add_unless\&gt;/atomic_fetch_add_unless/}' "${line%%:*}";
  done
  git grep -w __arch_atomic_add_unless | while read line; do
  sed -i '{s/\&lt;__arch_atomic_add_unless\&gt;/arch_atomic_fetch_add_unless/}' "${line%%:*}";
  done
  ----

Note that we do not have atomic{64,_long}_fetch_add_unless(), which will
be introduced by later patches.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Pull timers and timekeeping updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - Core infrastucture work for Y2038 to address the COMPAT interfaces:

     + Add a new Y2038 safe __kernel_timespec and use it in the core
       code

     + Introduce config switches which allow to control the various
       compat mechanisms

     + Use the new config switch in the posix timer code to control the
       32bit compat syscall implementation.

 - Prevent bogus selection of CPU local clocksources which causes an
   endless reselection loop

 - Remove the extra kthread in the clocksource code which has no value
   and just adds another level of indirection

 - The usual bunch of trivial updates, cleanups and fixlets all over the
   place

 - More SPDX conversions

* 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (24 commits)
  clocksource/drivers/mxs_timer: Switch to SPDX identifier
  clocksource/drivers/timer-imx-tpm: Switch to SPDX identifier
  clocksource/drivers/timer-imx-gpt: Switch to SPDX identifier
  clocksource/drivers/timer-imx-gpt: Remove outdated file path
  clocksource/drivers/arc_timer: Add comments about locking while read GFRC
  clocksource/drivers/mips-gic-timer: Add pr_fmt and reword pr_* messages
  clocksource/drivers/sprd: Fix Kconfig dependency
  clocksource: Move inline keyword to the beginning of function declarations
  timer_list: Remove unused function pointer typedef
  timers: Adjust a kernel-doc comment
  tick: Prefer a lower rating device only if it's CPU local device
  clocksource: Remove kthread
  time: Change nanosleep to safe __kernel_* types
  time: Change types to new y2038 safe __kernel_* types
  time: Fix get_timespec64() for y2038 safe compat interfaces
  time: Add new y2038 safe __kernel_timespec
  posix-timers: Make compat syscalls depend on CONFIG_COMPAT_32BIT_TIME

We already have memcpy_toio(), but not memset_io(), so let's
add the obvious version to allow building an allmodconfig kernel
without errors like

drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_bo_util.c: In function 'ttm_bo_move_memcpy':
drivers/gpu/drm/ttm/ttm_bo_util.c:390:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'memset_io' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

<title>time: Add an asm-generic/compat.h file</title>

We have a couple of files that try to include asm/compat.h on
architectures where this is available. Those should generally use the
higher-level linux/compat.h file, but that in turn fails to include
asm/compat.h when CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled, unless we can provide
that header on all architectures.

This adds the asm/compat.h for all remaining architectures to
simplify the dependencies.

Architectures that are getting removed in linux-4.17 are not changed
here, to avoid needless conflicts with the removal patches. Those
architectures are broken by this patch, but we have already shown
that they have no users.
