Pull sparc fixes from David Miller:
 "Several build/bug fixes for sparc, including:

  1) Configuring a mix of static vs.  modular sparc64 crypto modules
     didn't work, remove an ill-conceived attempt to only have to build
     the device match table for these drivers once to fix the problem.

     Reported by Meelis Roos.

  2) Make the montgomery multiple/square and mpmul instructions actually
     usable in 32-bit tasks.  Essentially this involves providing 32-bit
     userspace with a way to use a 64-bit stack when it needs to.

  3) Our sparc64 atomic backoffs don't yield cpu strands properly on
     Niagara chips.  Use pause instruction when available to achieve
     this, otherwise use a benign instruction we know blocks the strand
     for some time.

  4) Wire up kcmp

  5) Fix the build of various drivers by removing the unnecessary
     blocking of OF_GPIO when SPARC.

  6) Fix unintended regression wherein of_address_to_resource stopped
     being provided.  Fix from Andreas Larsson.

  7) Fix NULL dereference in leon_handle_ext_irq(), also from Andreas
     Larsson."

* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/sparc:
  sparc64: Fix build with mix of modular vs. non-modular crypto drivers.
  sparc: Support atomic64_dec_if_positive properly.
  of/address: sparc: Declare of_address_to_resource() as an extern function for sparc again
  sparc32, leon: Check for existent irq_map entry in leon_handle_ext_irq
  sparc: Add sparc support for platform_get_irq()
  sparc: Allow OF_GPIO on sparc.

We tried linking in a single built object to hold the device table,
but only works if all of the sparc64 crypto modules get built the same
way (modular vs. non-modular).

Just include the device ID stub into each driver source file so that
the table gets compiled into the correct result in all cases.

Sparc32 already supported it, as a consequence of using the
generic atomic64 implementation.  And the sparc64 implementation
is rather trivial.

This allows us to set ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE for all
of sparc, and avoid the annoying warning from lib/atomic64_test.c

<title>of/address: sparc: Declare of_address_to_resource() as an extern function for sparc again</title>

This bug-fix makes sure that of_address_to_resource is defined extern for sparc
so that the sparc-specific implementation of of_address_to_resource() is once
again used when including include/linux/of_address.h in a sparc context. A
number of drivers in mainline relies on this function working for sparc.

The bug was introduced in a850a7554442f08d3e910c6eeb4ee216868dda1e, "of/address:
add empty static inlines for !CONFIG_OF". Contrary to that commit title, the
static inlines are added for !CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS, and CONFIG_OF_ADDRESS is never
defined for sparc. This is good behavior for the other functions in
include/linux/of_address.h, as the extern functions defined in
drivers/of/address.c only gets linked when OF_ADDRESS is configured. However,
for of_address_to_resource there exists a sparc-specific implementation in
arch/sparc/arch/sparc/kernel/of_device_common.c
