Now that we handle all of the sections in a Hexagon defconfig, select
ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN so that unhandled sections are warned about by
default.

ld.lld warns that the '.modinfo' section is not currently handled:

ld.lld: warning: kernel/built-in.a(workqueue.o):(.modinfo) is being placed in '.modinfo'
ld.lld: warning: kernel/built-in.a(printk/printk.o):(.modinfo) is being placed in '.modinfo'
ld.lld: warning: kernel/built-in.a(irq/spurious.o):(.modinfo) is being placed in '.modinfo'
ld.lld: warning: kernel/built-in.a(rcu/update.o):(.modinfo) is being placed in '.modinfo'

The '.modinfo' section was added in commit 898490c010b5 ("moduleparam:
Save information about built-in modules in separate file") to the DISCARDS
macro but Hexagon has never used that macro.  The unification of DISCARDS
happened in commit 023bf6f1b8bf ("linker script: unify usage of discard
definition") in 2009, prior to Hexagon being added in 2011.

Switch Hexagon over to the DISCARDS macro so that anything that is
expected to be discarded gets discarded.

Patch series "hexagon: Fix build error with CONFIG_STACKDEPOT and select CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN".

This series fixes an error with ARCH=hexagon that was pointed out by the
patch "mm/slub: use stackdepot to save stack trace in objects".

The first patch fixes that error by handling the '.irqentry.text' and
'.softirqentry.text' sections.

The second patch switches Hexagon over to the common DISCARDS macro, which
should have been done when Hexagon was merged into the tree to match
commit 023bf6f1b8bf ("linker script: unify usage of discard definition").

The third patch selects CONFIG_ARCH_WANT_LD_ORPHAN_WARN so that something
like this does not happen again.

This patch (of 3):

Patch "mm/slub: use stackdepot to save stack trace in objects" in -mm
selects CONFIG_STACKDEPOT when CONFIG_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT is selected and
CONFIG_STACKDEPOT requires IRQENTRY_TEXT and SOFTIRQENTRY_TEXT to be
handled after commit 505a0ef15f96 ("kasan: stackdepot: move
filter_irq_stacks() to stackdepot.c") due to the use of the
__{,soft}irqentry_text_{start,end} section symbols.  If those sections are
not handled, the build is broken.

$ make ARCH=hexagon CROSS_COMPILE=hexagon-linux- LLVM=1 LLVM_IAS=1 defconfig all
...
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __irqentry_text_start
&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by stackdepot.c

&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by stackdepot.c
&gt;&gt;&gt;               stackdepot.o:(filter_irq_stacks) in archive lib/built-in.a

&gt;&gt;&gt;               stackdepot.o:(filter_irq_stacks) in archive lib/built-in.a

ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __softirqentry_text_start
&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by stackdepot.c
&gt;&gt;&gt;               stackdepot.o:(filter_irq_stacks) in archive lib/built-in.a
&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by stackdepot.c
&gt;&gt;&gt;               stackdepot.o:(filter_irq_stacks) in archive lib/built-in.a

ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: __softirqentry_text_end
&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by stackdepot.c
&gt;&gt;&gt;               stackdepot.o:(filter_irq_stacks) in archive lib/built-in.a
&gt;&gt;&gt; referenced by stackdepot.c
&gt;&gt;&gt;               stackdepot.o:(filter_irq_stacks) in archive lib/built-in.a
...

Add these sections to the Hexagon linker script so the build continues to
work.  ld.lld's orphan section warning would have caught this prior to the
-mm commit mentioned above:

ld.lld: warning: kernel/built-in.a(softirq.o):(.softirqentry.text) is being placed in '.softirqentry.text'
ld.lld: warning: kernel/built-in.a(softirq.o):(.softirqentry.text) is being placed in '.softirqentry.text'

Currently most platforms define pmd_pgtable() as pmd_page() duplicating
the same code all over.  Instead just define a default value i.e
pmd_page() for pmd_pgtable() and let platforms override when required via
&lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;.  All the existing platform that override pmd_pgtable()
have been moved into their respective &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt; header in order to
precede before the new generic definition.  This makes it much cleaner
with reduced code.

<title>mm: define default value for FIRST_USER_ADDRESS</title>

Currently most platforms define FIRST_USER_ADDRESS as 0UL duplication the
same code all over.  Instead just define a generic default value (i.e 0UL)
for FIRST_USER_ADDRESS and let the platforms override when required.  This
makes it much cleaner with reduced code.

The default FIRST_USER_ADDRESS here would be skipped in &lt;linux/pgtable.h&gt;
when the given platform overrides its value via &lt;asm/pgtable.h&gt;.

Pull scheduler udpates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Changes to core scheduling facilities:

    - Add "Core Scheduling" via CONFIG_SCHED_CORE=y, which enables
      coordinated scheduling across SMT siblings. This is a much
      requested feature for cloud computing platforms, to allow the
      flexible utilization of SMT siblings, without exposing untrusted
      domains to information leaks &amp; side channels, plus to ensure more
      deterministic computing performance on SMT systems used by
      heterogenous workloads.

      There are new prctls to set core scheduling groups, which allows
      more flexible management of workloads that can share siblings.

    - Fix task-&gt;state access anti-patterns that may result in missed
      wakeups and rename it to -&gt;__state in the process to catch new
      abuses.

 - Load-balancing changes:

    - Tweak newidle_balance for fair-sched, to improve 'memcache'-like
      workloads.

    - "Age" (decay) average idle time, to better track &amp; improve
      workloads such as 'tbench'.

    - Fix &amp; improve energy-aware (EAS) balancing logic &amp; metrics.

    - Fix &amp; improve the uclamp metrics.

    - Fix task migration (taskset) corner case on !CONFIG_CPUSET.

    - Fix RT and deadline utilization tracking across policy changes

    - Introduce a "burstable" CFS controller via cgroups, which allows
      bursty CPU-bound workloads to borrow a bit against their future
      quota to improve overall latencies &amp; batching. Can be tweaked via
      /sys/fs/cgroup/cpu/&lt;X&gt;/cpu.cfs_burst_us.

    - Rework assymetric topology/capacity detection &amp; handling.

 - Scheduler statistics &amp; tooling:

    - Disable delayacct by default, but add a sysctl to enable it at
      runtime if tooling needs it. Use static keys and other
      optimizations to make it more palatable.

    - Use sched_clock() in delayacct, instead of ktime_get_ns().

 - Misc cleanups and fixes.
