find_bit API and bitmap API are closely related, but inclusion paths
are different - include/asm-generic and include/linux, correspondingly.
In the past it made a lot of troubles due to circular dependencies
and/or undefined symbols. Fix this by moving find.h under include/linux.

<title>locking: Allow to include asm/spinlock_types.h from linux/spinlock_types_raw.h</title>

The printk header file includes ratelimit_types.h for its __ratelimit()
based usage. It is required for the static initializer used in
printk_ratelimited(). It uses a raw_spinlock_t and includes the
spinlock_types.h.

PREEMPT_RT substitutes spinlock_t with a rtmutex based implementation and so
its spinlock_t implmentation (provided by spinlock_rt.h) includes rtmutex.h and
atomic.h which leads to recursive includes where defines are missing.

By including only the raw_spinlock_t defines it avoids the atomic.h
related includes at this stage.

The WARN / BUG include pulls in printk.h and then ptrace.h expects WARN
(from bug.h) which is not yet complete. Even hw_irq.h has WARN_ON()
statements.

On POWERPC64 there are missing atomic64 defines while building 32bit

The generic fallback is not included, atomics itself are not used. If
kernel.h does not include printk.h then it comes later from the bug.h
include.

Allow asm/spinlock_types.h to be included from
linux/spinlock_types_raw.h.

When building allmodconfig, there is a warning about TIMER_ENABLE being
redefined:

  drivers/clocksource/timer-oxnas-rps.c:39:9: error: 'TIMER_ENABLE' macro redefined [-Werror,-Wmacro-redefined]
  #define TIMER_ENABLE            BIT(7)

  #define TIMER_ENABLE            0
           ^
  1 error generated.

The values in this header are only used in one file each, if they are
used at all.  Remove the header and sink all of the constants into their
respective files.

TCX0_CLK_RATE is only used in arch/hexagon/include/asm/timex.h

TIMER_ENABLE, RTOS_TIMER_INT, RTOS_TIMER_REGS_ADDR are only used in
arch/hexagon/kernel/time.c.

SLEEP_CLK_RATE and TIMER_CLR_ON_MATCH have both been unused since the
file's introduction in commit 71e4a47f32f4 ("Hexagon: Add time and timer
functions").

TIMER_ENABLE is redefined as BIT(0) so the shift is moved into the
definition, rather than its use.

TIMER_ENABLE is redefined as BIT(0) so the shift is moved into the
definition, rather than its use.

Having a stable wchan means the process must be blocked and for it to
stay that way while performing stack unwinding.

<title>asm-generic: remove extra strn{cpy_from,len}_user declarations</title>

As these are now in asm-generic, it's no longer necessary to
declare them in the architecture.

<title>hexagon: use generic strncpy/strnlen from_user</title>

Remove the hexagon implementation of strncpy/strnlen and instead use
the generic version.  The hexagon version reads the data twice for
strncpy() by doing an extra strnlen(), and it apparently lacks a check
for user_addr_max().

<title>asm-generic/uaccess.h: remove __strncpy_from_user/__strnlen_user</title>

This is a preparation for changing over architectures to the
generic implementation one at a time. As there are no callers
of either __strncpy_from_user() or __strnlen_user(), fold these
into the strncpy_from_user() and strnlen_user() functions to make
each implementation independent of the others.

Many of these implementations have known bugs, but the intention
here is to not change behavior at all and stay compatible with
those bugs for the moment.
