   - support for sparse and cleanups suggested by it.

   - support for R_RISCV_32 (a relocation, not the 32-bit ISA).

   - some MAINTAINERS cleanups.

   - the addition of CONFIG_HVC_RISCV_SBI to our defconfig, as it's
     always present.

This patch set contains a handful of fixes that clean up the sparse
results for the RISC-V port.  These patches shouldn't have any
functional difference.  The patches:

* Use NULL instead of 0.
* Clean up __user annotations.
* Split __copy_user into two functions, to make the __user annotations
  valid.

We use a single __copy_user assembly function to copy memory both from
and to userspace. While this works, it triggers sparse errors because
we're implicitly casting between the kernel and user address spaces by
calling __copy_user.

This patch splits the C declaration into a pair of functions,
__asm_copy_{to,from}_user, that have sane semantics WRT __user. This
split make things fine from sparse's point of view. The assembly
implementation keeps a single definition but add a double ENTRY() for it,
one for __asm_copy_to_user and another one for __asm_copy_from_user.
The result is a spare-safe implementation that pays no performance
or code size penalty.

<title>mm: introduce ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL</title>

<id>3010a5ea665a089361e435093bd737399123fcc4</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently the PTE special supports is turned on in per architecture
header files.  Most of the time, it is defined in
arch/*/include/asm/pgtable.h depending or not on some other per
architecture static definition.

This patch introduce a new configuration variable to manage this
directly in the Kconfig files.  It would later replace
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL.

Here notes for some architecture where the definition of
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is not obvious:

arm
 __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL which is currently defined in
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable-3level.h which is included by
arch/arm/include/asm/pgtable.h when CONFIG_ARM_LPAE is set.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if ARM_LPAE.

powerpc
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined in 2 files:
 - arch/powerpc/include/asm/book3s/64/pgtable.h
 - arch/powerpc/include/asm/pte-common.h
The first one is included if (PPC_BOOK3S &amp; PPC64) while the second is
included in all the other cases.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL all the time.

sparc:
__HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL is defined if defined(__sparc__) &amp;&amp;
defined(__arch64__) which are defined through the compiler in
sparc/Makefile if !SPARC32 which I assume to be if SPARC64.
So select ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL if SPARC64

There is no functional change introduced by this patch.

sbi_remote_sfence_vma() &amp; sbi_remote_fence_i() takes
a pointer as first argument but some macros call them with
a plain 0 which, while legal C, is frowned upon in the kernel.

Change this by replacing the 0 by NULL.

This patch provide a basic PMU, riscv_base_pmu, which supports two
general hardware event, instructions and cycles.  Furthermore, this
PMU serves as a reference implementation to ease the portings in
the future.

riscv_base_pmu should be able to run on any RISC-V machine that
conforms to the Priv-Spec.  Note that the latest qemu model hasn't
fully support a proper behavior of Priv-Spec 1.10 yet, but work
around should be easy with very small fixes.  Please check
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-qemu/pull/115 for future updates.

All RISC-V platforms today lack an IOMMU. However, legacy PCI devices
sometimes require DMA-memory to be in the low 32 bits.  To make this work,
we enable the software-based bounce buffers from swiotlb.  They only impose
overhead when the device in question cannot address the full 64-bit address
space, so a perfect fit.

This patch assumes that DMA is coherent with the processor and the PCI
bus.  It also assumes that the processor and devices share a common
address space. This is true for all RISC-V platforms so far.

[changelog stolen from an earlier patch by Palmer Dabbelt that did the
 more complicated swiotlb wireup before the recent consolidation]

This was used by the ide, scsi and networking code in the past to
determine if they should bounce payloads.  Now that the dma mapping
always have to support dma to all physical memory (thanks to swiotlb
for non-iommu systems) there is no need to this crude hack any more.

Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "This contains the new features we'd like to incorporate into the
  RISC-V port for 4.17. We might have a bit more stuff land later in the
  merge window, but I wanted to get this out earlier just so everyone
  can see where we currently stand.

  A short summary of the changes is:

   - We've added support for dynamic ftrace on RISC-V targets.

   - There have been a handful of cleanups to our atomic and locking
     routines. They now more closely match the released RISC-V memory
     model draft.

   - Our module loading support has been cleaned up and is now enabled
     by default, despite some limitations still existing.

   - A patch to define COMMANDLINE_FORCE instead of COMMANDLINE_OVERRIDE
     so the generic device tree code picks up handling all our command
     line stuff.

  There's more information in the merge commits for each patch set"
