Replace the existing /* fall through */ comments and its variants with
the new pseudo-keyword macro fallthrough[1]. Also, remove unnecessary
fall-through markings when it is the case.

Since commit 61a47c1ad3a4dc ("sysctl: Remove the sysctl system call"),
sys_sysctl is actually unavailable: any input can only return an error.

We have been warning about people using the sysctl system call for years
and believe there are no more users.  Even if there are users of this
interface if they have not complained or fixed their code by now they
probably are not going to, so there is no point in warning them any
longer.

So completely remove sys_sysctl on all architectures.

<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.

Pull close_range() implementation from Christian Brauner:
 "This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a
  range of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling
  task.

  This is coordinated with the FreeBSD folks which have copied our
  version of this syscall and in the meantime have already merged it in
  April 2019:

    https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627
    https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&amp;revision=359836

  The syscall originally came up in a discussion around the new mount
  API and making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During
  this discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall.

  First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task.
  This can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim):

        /* that exec is sensitive */
        unshare(CLONE_FILES);
        /* we don't want anything past stderr here */
        close_range(3, ~0U);
        execve(....);

  The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that
  file descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the
  fact that we can't just switch them over without massively regressing
  userspace. For a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of
  closing all file descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service
  managers, programming language standard libraries, container managers
  etc.).

  Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file
  descriptors by parsing through /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/fd/* and calling close() on
  each file descriptor and other hacks. From looking at various
  large(ish) userspace code bases this or similar patterns are very
  common in service managers, container runtimes, and programming
  language runtimes/standard libraries such as Python or Rust.

  In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have
  procfs mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled
  in. In such situations the only way to make sure that all file
  descriptors are closed is to call close() on each file descriptor up
  to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE, OPEN_MAX trickery.

  Based on Linus' suggestion close_range() also comes with a new flag
  CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE to more elegantly handle file descriptor dropping
  right before exec. This would usually be expressed in the sequence:

        unshare(CLONE_FILES);
        close_range(3, ~0U);

  as pointed out by Linus it might be desirable to have this be a part
  of close_range() itself under a new flag CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE which
  gets especially handy when we're closing all file descriptors above a
  certain threshold.

Pull close_range() implementation from Christian Brauner:
 "This adds the close_range() syscall. It allows to efficiently close a
  range of file descriptors up to all file descriptors of a calling
  task.

  This is coordinated with the FreeBSD folks which have copied our
  version of this syscall and in the meantime have already merged it in
  April 2019:

    https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21627
    https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&amp;revision=359836

  The syscall originally came up in a discussion around the new mount
  API and making new file descriptor types cloexec by default. During
  this discussion, Al suggested the close_range() syscall.

  First, it helps to close all file descriptors of an exec()ing task.
  This can be done safely via (quoting Al's example from [1] verbatim):

        /* that exec is sensitive */
        unshare(CLONE_FILES);
        /* we don't want anything past stderr here */
        close_range(3, ~0U);
        execve(....);

  The code snippet above is one way of working around the problem that
  file descriptors are not cloexec by default. This is aggravated by the
  fact that we can't just switch them over without massively regressing
  userspace. For a whole class of programs having an in-kernel method of
  closing all file descriptors is very helpful (e.g. demons, service
  managers, programming language standard libraries, container managers
  etc.).

  Second, it allows userspace to avoid implementing closing all file
  descriptors by parsing through /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/fd/* and calling close() on
  each file descriptor and other hacks. From looking at various
  large(ish) userspace code bases this or similar patterns are very
  common in service managers, container runtimes, and programming
  language runtimes/standard libraries such as Python or Rust.

  In addition, the syscall will also work for tasks that do not have
  procfs mounted and on kernels that do not have procfs support compiled
  in. In such situations the only way to make sure that all file
  descriptors are closed is to call close() on each file descriptor up
  to UINT_MAX or RLIMIT_NOFILE, OPEN_MAX trickery.

  Based on Linus' suggestion close_range() also comes with a new flag
  CLOSE_RANGE_UNSHARE to more elegantly handle file descriptor dropping
  right before exec. This would usually be expressed in the sequence:

        unshare(CLONE_FILES);
        close_range(3, ~0U);

Pull fork cleanups from Christian Brauner:
 "This is cleanup series from when we reworked a chunk of the process
  creation paths in the kernel and switched to struct
  {kernel_}clone_args.

  High-level this does two main things:

   - Remove the double export of both do_fork() and _do_fork() where
     do_fork() used the incosistent legacy clone calling convention.

     Now we only export _do_fork() which is based on struct
     kernel_clone_args.

   - Remove the copy_thread_tls()/copy_thread() split making the
     architecture specific HAVE_COYP_THREAD_TLS config option obsolete.

  This switches all remaining architectures to select
  HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and thus to the copy_thread_tls() calling
  convention. The current split makes the process creation codepaths
  more convoluted than they need to be. Each architecture has their own
  copy_thread() function unless it selects HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS then it
  has a copy_thread_tls() function.

  The split is not needed anymore nowadays, all architectures support
  CLONE_SETTLS but quite a few of them never bothered to select
  HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS and instead simply continued to use copy_thread()
  and use the old calling convention. Removing this split cleans up the
  process creation codepaths and paves the way for implementing clone3()
  on such architectures since it requires the copy_thread_tls() calling
  convention.

  After having made each architectures support copy_thread_tls() this
  series simply renames that function back to copy_thread(). It also
  switches all architectures that call do_fork() directly over to
  _do_fork() and the struct kernel_clone_args calling convention. This
  is a corollary of switching the architectures that did not yet support
  it over to copy_thread_tls() since do_fork() is conditional on not
  supporting copy_thread_tls() (Mostly because it lacks a separate
  argument for tls which is trivial to fix but there's no need for this
  function to exist.).

  The do_fork() removal is in itself already useful as it allows to to
  remove the export of both do_fork() and _do_fork() we currently have
  in favor of only _do_fork(). This has already been discussed back when
  we added clone3(). The legacy clone() calling convention is - as is
  probably well-known - somewhat odd:

    #
    # ABI hall of shame
    #
    config CLONE_BACKWARDS
    config CLONE_BACKWARDS2
    config CLONE_BACKWARDS3

  that is aggravated by the fact that some architectures such as sparc
  follow the CLONE_BACKWARDSx calling convention but don't really select
  the corresponding config option since they call do_fork() directly.

  So do_fork() enforces a somewhat arbitrary calling convention in the
  first place that doesn't really help the individual architectures that
  deviate from it. They can thus simply be switched to _do_fork()
  enforcing a single calling convention. (I really hope that any new
  architectures will __not__ try to implement their own calling
  conventions...)

  Most architectures already have made a similar switch (m68k comes to
  mind).

  Overall this removes more code than it adds even with a good portion
  of added comments. It simplifies a chunk of arch specific assembly
  either by moving the code into C or by simply rewriting the assembly.

  Architectures that have been touched in non-trivial ways have all been
  actually boot and stress tested: sparc and ia64 have been tested with
  Debian 9 images. They are the two architectures which have been
  touched the most. All non-trivial changes to architectures have seen
  acks from the relevant maintainers. nios2 with a custom built
  buildroot image. h8300 I couldn't get something bootable to test on
  but the changes have been fairly automatic and I'm sure we'll hear
  people yell if I broke something there.

  All other architectures that have been touched in trivial ways have
  been compile tested for each single patch of the series via git rebase
  -x "make ..." v5.8-rc2. arm{64} and x86{_64} have been boot tested
  even though they have just been trivially touched (removal of the
  HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS macro from their Kconfig) because well they are
  basically "core architectures" and since it is trivial to get your

The m68k nommu setup code didn't register the beginning of the physical
memory with memblock because it was anyway occupied by the kernel. However,
commit fa3354e4ea39 ("mm: free_area_init: use maximal zone PFNs rather than
zone sizes") changed zones initialization to use memblock.memory to detect
the zone extents and this caused inconsistency between zone PFNs and the
actual PFNs:

zone sizes") changed zones initialization to use memblock.memory to detect
the zone extents and this caused inconsistency between zone PFNs and the
actual PFNs:

Adjust the memory registration with memblock to include the beginning of
the physical memory and make sure that the area occupied by the kernel is
marked as reserved.

<title>fork: fold legacy_clone_args_valid() into _do_fork()</title>

This separate helper only existed to guarantee the mutual exclusivity of
CLONE_PIDFD and CLONE_PARENT_SETTID for legacy clone since CLONE_PIDFD
abuses the parent_tid field to return the pidfd. But we can actually handle
this uniformely thus removing the helper. For legacy clone we can detect
that CLONE_PIDFD is specified in conjunction with CLONE_PARENT_SETTID
because they will share the same memory which is invalid and for clone3()
setting the separate pidfd and parent_tid fields to the same memory is
bogus as well. So fold that helper directly into _do_fork() by detecting
this case.
