Code before the .fixup section needs to have the .insn directive.
This has no side effects on MIPS32/64 but it affects the way microMIPS
loads the address for the return label.

Fixes the following build problem:
mips-linux-gnu-ld: arch/mips/built-in.o: .fixup+0x4a0: Unsupported jump between
ISA modes; consider recompiling with interlinking enabled.
mips-linux-gnu-ld: final link failed: Bad value
Makefile:819: recipe for target 'vmlinux' failed

The fix is similar to 1658f914ff91c3bf ("MIPS: microMIPS:
Disable LL/SC and fix linker bug.")

The no-op cases of cop2_save &amp; cop2_restore lead to the following
warnings being emitted during build with recent versions of gcc (tested
using gcc 4.8.3 from the Mentor Sourcery CodeBench 2014.05 toolchain):

Avoid the warning by "using" the value by casting to void.

<title>MIPS: idle: Remove leftover __pastwait symbol and its references</title>

<id>9d26024c964718c6307a96f387b24fc06dac4d91</id>
<content type='text'>
The __pastwait symbol was only used by the address_is_in_r4k_wait_irqoff
function but this is no longer used since the SMTC removal in commit
b633648c5ad3 ('MIPS: MT: Remove SMTC support'). That symbol also led to
build failures under certain random configuration due to the way the
compiler compiled the r4k_wait_irqoff function. If that function was
called multiple times, the __pastwait symbol was redefined breaking the
build like this:

CHK     include/generated/compile.h
CC      arch/mips/kernel/idle.o
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:527: Error: symbol `__pastwait' is already defined

<title>MIPS: ptrace.h: Add a missing include</title>

Commit a79ebea62010 (MIPS: ptrace: Fix user pt_regs definition,
use in ptrace_{get, set}regs()) converted struct pt_regs to use __u64.
Some userspace applications (e.g. GDB) include this file directly,
and fail to see this type. Fix by including &lt;linux/types.h&gt;.

The patch fixes the following build failure with GDB 7.8 when using
GLIBC headers created against Linux 3.17:

 "So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
  problem.  We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process.  seccomp
  hooks in before the audit syscall entry code.  audit_syscall_entry
  took as an argument the arch of the given syscall.  Since the arch is
  part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
  of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
  syscall...

  For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
  So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
  there is audit which didn't have it.  Use syscall_get_arch() in the
  seccomp audit code.  Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
  a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
  syscall entry.

  The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
  records that had invalid spaces.  Better locking around the task comm
  field.  Removing some dead functions and structs.  Make some things
  static.  Really minor stuff"

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
 "Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
  and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
  and had their own accessors.  The distinction has been gone for many
  years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
  with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
  operations over time.  During the process, we also accumulated other
  inconsistent operations.

  This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
  duplicate accessor situation.  __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
  with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().

  Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
  messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
  a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
  this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().

  This converts most of the uses but not all.  Christoph will follow up
  with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
  remove the obsolete accessors"

Pull arch atomic cleanups from Ingo Molnar:
 "This is a series kept separate from the main locking tree, which
  cleans up and improves various details in the atomics type handling:

   - Remove the unused atomic_or_long() method

   - Consolidate and compress atomic ops implementations between
     architectures, to reduce linecount and to make it easier to add new
     ops.

   - Rewrite generic atomic support to only require cmpxchg() from an
     architecture - generate all other methods from that"

The different architectures used their own (and different) declarations:

Consolidate them using the first variant in &lt;asm/sections.h&gt;.
