<title>time: Add an asm-generic/compat.h file</title>

<content type='text'>
We have a couple of files that try to include asm/compat.h on
architectures where this is available. Those should generally use the
higher-level linux/compat.h file, but that in turn fails to include
asm/compat.h when CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled, unless we can provide
that header on all architectures.

This adds the asm/compat.h for all remaining architectures to
simplify the dependencies.

Architectures that are getting removed in linux-4.17 are not changed
here, to avoid needless conflicts with the removal patches. Those
architectures are broken by this patch, but we have already shown
that they have no users.

1. Removes the need to walk the IRQ/Device list to determine
who triggered the IRQ.
2. Improves scalability (up to several times performance
improvement for cases with 10s of devices).
3. Improves UML baseline IO performance for one disk + one NIC
use case by up to 10%.
4. Introduces write poll triggered IRQs.
5. Prerequisite for introducing high performance mmesg family
of functions in network IO.
6. Fixes RNG shutdown which was leaking a file descriptor

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd:
 "The core framework has a handful of patches this time around, mostly
  due to the clk rate protection support added by Jerome Brunet.

  This feature will allow consumers to lock in a certain rate on the
  output of a clk so that things like audio playback don't hear pops
  when the clk frequency changes due to shared parent clks changing
  rates. Currently the clk API doesn't guarantee the rate of a clk stays
  at the rate you request after clk_set_rate() is called, so this new
  API will allow drivers to express that requirement.

  Beyond this, the core got some debugfs pretty printing patches and a
  couple minor non-critical fixes.

  Looking outside of the core framework diff we have some new driver
  additions and the removal of a legacy TI clk driver. Both of these hit
  high in the dirstat. Also, the removal of the asm-generic/clkdev.h
  file causes small one-liners in all the architecture Kbuild files.

  Overall, the driver diff seems to be the normal stuff that comes all
  the time to fix little problems here and there and to support new
  hardware.

  Summary:

  Core:
   - Clk rate protection
   - Symbolic clk flags in debugfs output
   - Clk registration enabled clks while doing bookkeeping updates

  New Drivers:
   - Spreadtrum SC9860
   - HiSilicon hi3660 stub
   - Qualcomm A53 PLL, SPMI clkdiv, and MSM8916 APCS
   - Amlogic Meson-AXG
   - ASPEED BMC

  Removed Drivers:
   - TI OMAP 3xxx legacy clk (non-DT) support
   - asm*/clkdev.h got removed (not really a driver)

  Updates:
   - Renesas FDP1-0 module clock on R-Car M3-W
   - Renesas LVDS module clock on R-Car V3M
   - Misc fixes to pr_err() prints
   - Qualcomm MSM8916 audio fixes
   - Qualcomm IPQ8074 rounded out support for more peripherals
   - Qualcomm Alpha PLL variants
   - Divider code was using container_of() on bad pointers
   - Allwinner DE2 clks on H3
   - Amlogic minor data fixes and dropping of CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED
   - Mediatek clk driver compile test support
   - AT91 PMC clk suspend/resume restoration support
   - PLL issues fixed on si5351
   - Broadcom IProc PLL calculation updates
   - DVFS support for Armada mvebu CPU clks

Construct the init thread stack in the linker script rather than doing it
by means of a union so that ia64's init_task.c can be got rid of.

The following symbols are then made available from INIT_TASK_DATA() linker
script macro:

	init_thread_union
	init_stack

INIT_TASK_DATA() also expands the region to THREAD_SIZE to accommodate the
size of the init stack.  init_thread_union is given its own section so that
it can be placed into the stack space in the right order.  I'm assuming
that the ia64 ordering is correct and that the task_struct is first and the
thread_info second.

Now that every architecture is using the generic clkdev.h file
and we no longer include asm/clkdev.h anywhere in the tree, we
can remove it.

Now that every architecture is using the generic clkdev.h file
and we no longer include asm/clkdev.h anywhere in the tree, we
can remove it.

Pull x86 PTI preparatory patches from Thomas Gleixner:
 "Todays Advent calendar window contains twentyfour easy to digest
  patches. The original plan was to have twenty three matching the date,
  but a late fixup made that moot.

   - Move the cpu_entry_area mapping out of the fixmap into a separate
     address space. That's necessary because the fixmap becomes too big
     with NRCPUS=8192 and this caused already subtle and hard to
     diagnose failures.

     The top most patch is fresh from today and cures a brain slip of
     that tall grumpy german greybeard, who ignored the intricacies of
     32bit wraparounds.

   - Limit the number of CPUs on 32bit to 64. That's insane big already,
     but at least it's small enough to prevent address space issues with
     the cpu_entry_area map, which have been observed and debugged with
     the fixmap code

   - A few TLB flush fixes in various places plus documentation which of
     the TLB functions should be used for what.

   - Rename the SYSENTER stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA stack as it is used for
     more than sysenter now and keeping the name makes backtraces
     confusing.

   - Prevent LDT inheritance on exec() by moving it to arch_dup_mmap(),
     which is only invoked on fork().

   - Make vysycall more robust.

   - A few fixes and cleanups of the debug_pagetables code. Check
     PAGE_PRESENT instead of checking the PTE for 0 and a cleanup of the
     C89 initialization of the address hint array which already was out
     of sync with the index enums.

   - Move the ESPFIX init to a different place to prepare for PTI.

   - Several code moves with no functional change to make PTI
     integration simpler and header files less convoluted.

   - Documentation fixes and clarifications"
