Fix a commit 8a8158c85e1e ("MIPS: memset.S: EVA &amp; fault support for
small_memset") regression and remove assembly warnings:

arch/mips/lib/memset.S: Assembler messages:
arch/mips/lib/memset.S:243: Warning: Macro instruction expanded into multiple instructions in a branch delay slot

triggering with the CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS option set and this code:

	PTR_SUBU	a2, t1, a0
	jr		ra
	 PTR_ADDIU	a2, 1

This is because with that option in place the DADDIU instruction, which
the PTR_ADDIU CPP macro expands to, becomes a GAS macro, which in turn
expands to an LI/DADDU (or actually ADDIU/DADDU) sequence:

 13c:	01a4302f 	dsubu	a2,t1,a0
 140:	03e00008 	jr	ra
 144:	24010001 	li	at,1
 148:	00c1302d 	daddu	a2,a2,at
	...

Correct this by switching off the `noreorder' assembly mode and letting
GAS schedule this jump's delay slot, as there is nothing special about
it that would require manual scheduling.  With this change in place
correct code is produced:

 13c:	01a4302f 	dsubu	a2,t1,a0
 140:	24010001 	li	at,1
 144:	03e00008 	jr	ra
 148:	00c1302d 	daddu	a2,a2,at
	...

<title>MIPS: Fix CONFIG_CMDLINE handling</title>

Commit 8ce355cf2e38 ("MIPS: Setup boot_command_line before
plat_mem_setup") fixed a problem for systems which have
CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL=y &amp; use a DT with a chosen node that has either no
bootargs property or an empty one. In this configuration
early_init_dt_scan_chosen() copies CONFIG_CMDLINE into
boot_command_line, but the MIPS code doesn't know this so it appends
CONFIG_CMDLINE (via builtin_cmdline) to boot_command_line again. The
result is that boot_command_line contains the arguments from
CONFIG_CMDLINE twice.

That commit took the approach of simply setting up boot_command_line
from the MIPS code before early_init_dt_scan_chosen() runs, causing it
not to copy CONFIG_CMDLINE to boot_command_line if a chosen node with no
bootargs property is found.

Unfortunately this is problematic for systems which do have a non-empty
bootargs property &amp; CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL=y. There
early_init_dt_scan_chosen() will overwrite boot_command_line with the
arguments from DT, which means we lose those from CONFIG_CMDLINE
entirely. This breaks CONFIG_MIPS_CMDLINE_DTB_EXTEND. If we have
CONFIG_MIPS_CMDLINE_FROM_BOOTLOADER or
CONFIG_MIPS_CMDLINE_BUILTIN_EXTEND selected and the DT has a bootargs
property which we should ignore, it will instead be honoured breaking
those configurations too.

Fix this by reverting commit 8ce355cf2e38 ("MIPS: Setup
boot_command_line before plat_mem_setup") to restore the former
behaviour, and fixing the CONFIG_CMDLINE duplication issue by
initializing boot_command_line to a non-empty string that
early_init_dt_scan_chosen() will not overwrite with CONFIG_CMDLINE.

This is a little ugly, but cleanup in this area is on its way. In the
meantime this is at least easy to backport &amp; contains the ugliness
within arch/mips/.

<title>MIPS: VDSO: Always map near top of user memory</title>

<id>ea7e0480a4b695d0aa6b3fa99bd658a003122113</id>
<content type='text'>
When using the legacy mmap layout, for example triggered using ulimit -s
unlimited, get_unmapped_area() fills memory from bottom to top starting
from a fairly low address near TASK_UNMAPPED_BASE.

This placement is suboptimal if the user application wishes to allocate
large amounts of heap memory using the brk syscall. With the VDSO being
located low in the user's virtual address space, the amount of space
available for access using brk is limited much more than it was prior to
the introduction of the VDSO.

For example:

  # ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps
  00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436      /usr/bin/coreutils
  004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436      /usr/bin/coreutils
  004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
  00cc3000-00ce4000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0          [heap]
  2ab96000-2ab98000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0          [vvar]
  2ab98000-2ab99000 r-xp 00000000 00:00 0          [vdso]
  2ab99000-2ab9d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
  ...

Resolve this by adjusting STACK_TOP to reserve space for the VDSO &amp;
providing an address hint to get_unmapped_area() causing it to use this
space even when using the legacy mmap layout.

We reserve enough space for the VDSO, plus 1MB or 256MB for 32 bit &amp; 64
bit systems respectively within which we randomize the VDSO base
address. Previously this randomization was taken care of by the mmap
base address randomization performed by arch_mmap_rnd(). The 1MB &amp; 256MB
sizes are somewhat arbitrary but chosen such that we have some
randomization without taking up too much of the user's virtual address
space, which is often in short supply for 32 bit systems.

With this the VDSO is always mapped at a high address, leaving lots of
space for statically linked programs to make use of brk:

  # ulimit -s unlimited; cat /proc/self/maps
  00400000-004ec000 r-xp 00000000 08:00 71436      /usr/bin/coreutils
  004fc000-004fd000 rwxp 000ec000 08:00 71436      /usr/bin/coreutils
  004fd000-0050f000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
  00c28000-00c49000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0          [heap]
  ...
  7f67c000-7f69d000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0          [stack]
  7f7fc000-7f7fd000 rwxp 00000000 00:00 0
  7fcf1000-7fcf3000 r--p 00000000 00:00 0          [vvar]

dma_zalloc_coherent() now crashes if no dev pointer is given.
Add a dev pointer to the ltq_dma_channel structure and fill it in the
driver using it.

This fixes a bug introduced in kernel 4.19.

kvm_unmap_hva is long gone, and we only have kvm_unmap_hva_range to
deal with. Drop the now obsolete code.

<title>MIPS: VDSO: Match data page cache colouring when D$ aliases</title>

<id>0f02cfbc3d9e413d450d8d0fd660077c23f67eff</id>
<content type='text'>
When a system suffers from dcache aliasing a user program may observe
stale VDSO data from an aliased cache line. Notably this can break the
expectation that clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC, ...) is, as its name
suggests, monotonic.

In order to ensure that users observe updates to the VDSO data page as
intended, align the user mappings of the VDSO data page such that their
cache colouring matches that of the virtual address range which the
kernel will use to update the data page - typically its unmapped address
within kseg0.

This ensures that we don't introduce aliasing cache lines for the VDSO
data page, and therefore that userland will observe updates without
requiring cache invalidation.

Commit a0f97e06a43c ("kbuild: enable 'make CFLAGS=...' to add
additional options to CC") renamed CFLAGS to KBUILD_CFLAGS.

Commit 222d394d30e7 ("kbuild: enable 'make AFLAGS=...' to add
additional options to AS") renamed AFLAGS to KBUILD_AFLAGS.

Commit 06c5040cdb13 ("kbuild: enable 'make CPPFLAGS=...' to add
additional options to CPP") renamed CPPFLAGS to KBUILD_CPPFLAGS.

For some reason, LDFLAGS was not renamed.

Using a well-known variable like LDFLAGS may result in accidental
override of the variable.

Kbuild generally uses KBUILD_ prefixed variables for the internally
appended options, so here is one more conversion to sanitize the
naming convention.

I did not touch Makefiles under tools/ since the tools build system
is a different world.
