Both commits 0a3d763f1a68 ("ptrace: cleanup arch_ptrace() on um") and
9b05a69e0534 ("ptrace: change signature of arch_ptrace()") broke the um
build.  This patch fixes the issues.

0a3d763f1a68 introduced the undeclared variable "datavp".  The patch seems
completely untested.  :-(

9b05a69e0534 changed arch_ptrace()'s signature but did not update
um/include/asm/ptrace-generic.h.

<title>uml: define CONFIG_NO_DMA</title>

I think that it's better to detect DMA misuse at build time rather than
calling BUG_ON.  Architectures that can't do DMA need to define
CONFIG_NO_DMA.

Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for explaining how CONFIG_NO_DMA and CONFIG_HAS_DMA
work:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&amp;m=128359913825550&amp;w=2

HAS_DMA is defined like this:

config HAS_DMA
        boolean
        depends on !NO_DMA
        default y

So to set HAS_DMA to true an arch should do:
1) Do not define NO_DMA
2) Define NO_DMA abd set it to 'n'

Must archs - including um - used principle 1).

In the um case we want to say that we do NOT have any DMA.
This can be done in two ways.
a) define NO_DMA and set it to 'y'
b) redefine HAS_DMA and set it to 'n'.

The patch you provided used principle b) where other archs use principle a).
So I suggest you should use principle a) for um too.

Since we no longer need to provide KM_type, the whole pte_*map_nested()

Commit df9ee292 ("Fix IRQ flag handling naming") changed the IRQ flag
handling naming scheme and broke UML:

In file included from arch/um/include/asm/fixmap.h:5,
                 from arch/um/include/shared/um_uaccess.h:10,

                 from init/main.c:13:
arch/um/include/asm/system.h:11:1: warning: "local_save_flags" redefined

This patch brings the new scheme to UML and makes it work again.

<title>dma-mapping: remove dma_is_consistent API</title>

Architectures implement dma_is_consistent() in different ways (some
misinterpret the definition of API in DMA-API.txt).  So it hasn't been so
useful for drivers.  We have only one user of the API in tree.  Unlikely
out-of-tree drivers use the API.

Even if we fix dma_is_consistent() in some architectures, it doesn't look
useful at all.  It was invented long ago for some old systems that can't
allocate coherent memory at all.  It's better to export only APIs that are
definitely necessary for drivers.

Let's remove this API.

<title>um, x86: Cast to (u64 *) inside set_64bit()</title>

After tightening up the types passed to set_64bit(), the cast to
(phys_t *) triggers a warning apparently because phys_t is defined as
"unsigned long" when building on 64 bits; however, u64 is defined as
"unsigned long long".  This is, however, a explicit cast inside a
size-specific call, so just make the cast explicitly (u64 *).
