<content type='text'>
The kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kcalloc(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kcalloc(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kzalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

// Fix redundant parens around sizeof().

<title>powerpc: Use feature bit for RTC presence rather than timebase presence</title>

<content type='text'>
All PowerPC CPUs other than the original PPC601 have a timebase
register rather than the "real-time clock" (RTC) register that the
PPC601 (and the original POWER and POWER2 CPUs) had.  Currently
we have a CPU feature bit to indicate the presence of the timebase,
but it makes more sense to use a bit to indicate the unusual
situation rather than the common situation.  This therefore defines
a CPU_FTR_USE_RTC bit in place of the CPU_FTR_USE_TB bit, and
arranges for it to be set on PPC601 systems.

In a number of places we called "cache line size" what is actually
the cache block size, which in the powerpc architecture, means the
effective size to use with cache management instructions (it can
be different from the actual cache line size).

We fix the naming across the board and properly retrieve both
pieces of information when available in the device-tree.

<title>vdso: make arch_setup_additional_pages wait for mmap_sem for write killable</title>

most architectures are relying on mmap_sem for write in their
arch_setup_additional_pages.  If the waiting task gets killed by the oom
killer it would block oom_reaper from asynchronous address space reclaim
and reduce the chances of timely OOM resolving.  Wait for the lock in
the killable mode and return with EINTR if the task got killed while
waiting.

<title>powerpc: Standardise on NR_syscalls rather than __NR_syscalls.</title>

Most architectures use NR_syscalls as the #define for the number of syscalls.

We use __NR_syscalls, and then define NR_syscalls as __NR_syscalls.

__NR_syscalls is not used outside arch code, whereas NR_syscalls is. So as
NR_syscalls must be defined and __NR_syscalls does not, replace __NR_syscalls
with NR_syscalls.

<title>powerpc/vdso: Disable building the 32-bit VDSO on little endian</title>

The only little endian configuration we support is ppc64le. As such if
we're building little endian we don't need a 32-bit VDSO, because there
is no 32-bit userspace.

This patch is a fairly ugly mess of #ifdefs, but is the minimal logic
required to disable the 32-bit VDSO. We can hopefully clean up the
result in future with some further refactoring.

<title>powerpc/vdso: Combine start/size variables</title>

In vdso_fixup_features() we have start64/start32 and size64/size32, but
they have the same types, ie. void * and unsigned long.

They're only used to save the return value from find_sectionXX() for the
subsequent call to do_feature_fixups(), so there's no overlap in their
usage either.

So we can just consolidate them into start/size and avoid the
duplication.
