Currently regs_return_value always negates reg[2] if it determines
the syscall has failed, but when called in kernel context this check is
invalid and may result in returning a wrong value.

This fixes errors reported by CONFIG_KPROBES_SANITY_TEST

Kernel source files need not include &lt;linux/kconfig.h&gt; explicitly
because the top Makefile forces to include it with:

  -include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h

This commit removes explicit includes except the following:

  * arch/s390/include/asm/facilities_src.h
  * tools/testing/radix-tree/linux/kernel.h

These two are used for host programs.

<title>mips/panic: replace smp_send_stop() with kdump friendly version in panic path</title>

<id>54c721b857fd45f3ad3bda695ee4f472518db02a</id>
<content type='text'>
Daniel Walker reported problems which happens when
crash_kexec_post_notifiers kernel option is enabled
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/24/44).

In that case, smp_send_stop() is called before entering kdump routines
which assume other CPUs are still online.  As the result, kdump
routines fail to save other CPUs' registers.  Additionally for MIPS
OCTEON, it misses to stop the watchdog timer.

To fix this problem, call a new kdump friendly function,
crash_smp_send_stop(), instead of the smp_send_stop() when
crash_kexec_post_notifiers is enabled.  crash_smp_send_stop() is a
weak function, and it just call smp_send_stop().  Architecture
codes should override it so that kdump can work appropriately.
This patch provides MIPS version.

Fixes: f06e5153f4ae (kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" option)

Daniel Walker reported problems which happens when
crash_kexec_post_notifiers kernel option is enabled
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/24/44).

In that case, smp_send_stop() is called before entering kdump routines
which assume other CPUs are still online.  As the result, kdump
routines fail to save other CPUs' registers.  Additionally for MIPS
OCTEON, it misses to stop the watchdog timer.

To fix this problem, call a new kdump friendly function,
crash_smp_send_stop(), instead of the smp_send_stop() when
crash_kexec_post_notifiers is enabled.  crash_smp_send_stop() is a
weak function, and it just call smp_send_stop().  Architecture
codes should override it so that kdump can work appropriately.
This patch provides MIPS version.

Fixes: f06e5153f4ae (kernel/panic.c: add "crash_kexec_post_notifiers" option)

The declarations of arch-specific functions have been moved to a common
header in commit 3820b4d2789f ('uprobes: Move function declarations out
of arch'), but MIPS and S390 has added them to their own trees later.
Remove the unnecessary duplicates.

<title>nmi_backtrace: add more trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods</title>

<id>9a01c3ed5cdb35d9004eb92510ee6ea11b4a5f16</id>
<content type='text'>
Patch series "improvements to the nmi_backtrace code" v9.

This patch series modifies the trigger_xxx_backtrace() NMI-based remote
backtracing code to make it more flexible, and makes a few small
improvements along the way.

The motivation comes from the task isolation code, where there are
scenarios where we want to be able to diagnose a case where some cpu is
about to interrupt a task-isolated cpu.  It can be helpful to see both
where the interrupting cpu is, and also an approximation of where the
cpu that is being interrupted is.  The nmi_backtrace framework allows us
to discover the stack of the interrupted cpu.

I've tested that the change works as desired on tile, and build-tested
x86, arm, mips, and sparc64.  For x86 I confirmed that the generic
cpuidle stuff as well as the architecture-specific routines are in the
new cpuidle section.  For arm, mips, and sparc I just build-tested it
and made sure the generic cpuidle routines were in the new cpuidle
section, but I didn't attempt to figure out which the platform-specific
idle routines might be.  That might be more usefully done by someone
with platform experience in follow-up patches.

This patch (of 4):

Currently you can only request a backtrace of either all cpus, or all
cpus but yourself.  It can also be helpful to request a remote backtrace
of a single cpu, and since we want that, the logical extension is to
support a cpumask as the underlying primitive.

This change modifies the existing lib/nmi_backtrace.c code to take a
cpumask as its basic primitive, and modifies the linux/nmi.h code to use
the new "cpumask" method instead.

The existing clients of nmi_backtrace (arm and x86) are converted to
using the new cpumask approach in this change.

The other users of the backtracing API (sparc64 and mips) are converted
to use the cpumask approach rather than the all/allbutself approach.
The mips code ignored the "include_self" boolean but with this change it
will now also dump a local backtrace if requested.

We get 1 warning when building kernel with W=1:

  drivers/char/mem.c:220:12: warning: no previous prototype for 'phys_mem_access_prot_allowed' [-Wmissing-prototypes]
   int __weak phys_mem_access_prot_allowed(struct file *file,

In fact, its declaration is spreading to several header files in
different architecture, but need to be declare in common header file.

So this patch moves phys_mem_access_prot_allowed() to pgtable.h.
