Pull RISC-V updates from Palmer Dabbelt:
 "This contains an assortment of RISC-V related patches that I'd like to
  target for the 5.2 merge window. Most of the patches are cleanups, but
  there are a handful of user-visible changes:

   - The nosmp and nr_cpus command-line arguments are now supported,
     which work like normal.

   - The SBI console no longer installs itself as a preferred console,
     we rely on standard mechanisms (/chosen, command-line, hueristics)
     instead.

   - sfence_remove_sfence_vma{,_asid} now pass their arguments along to
     the SBI call.

   - Modules now support BUG().

   - A missing sfence.vma during boot has been added. This bug only
     manifests during boot.

   - The arch/riscv support for SiFive's L2 cache controller has been
     merged, which should un-block the EDAC framework work.

  I've only tested this on QEMU again, as I didn't have time to get
  things running on the Unleashed. The latest master from this morning
  merges in cleanly and passes the tests as well"

The Linux kernel will auto-disables all boot consoles whenever it
gets a preferred real console.

Currently on RISC-V systems, if we have a real console which is not
RISCV SBI console then boot consoles (such as earlycon=sbi) are not
auto-disabled when a real console (ttyS0 or ttySIF0) is available.
This results in duplicate prints at boot-time after kernel starts
using real console (i.e. ttyS0 or ttySIF0) if "earlycon=" kernel
parameter was passed by bootloader.

The reason for above issue is that RISCV SBI console always adds
itself as preferred console which is causing other real consoles
to be not used as preferred console.

Ideally "console=" kernel parameter passed by bootloaders should
be the one selecting a preferred real console.

This patch fixes above issue by not forcing RISCV SBI console as
preferred console.

<title>panic: avoid the extra noise dmesg</title>

<id>c39ea0b9dd24bf1bf2baa5cdbfa1905f3065347b</id>

When kernel panic happens, it will first print the panic call stack,
then the ending msg like:

[   35.743249] ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
[   35.749975] ------------[ cut here ]------------

The above message are very useful for debugging.

But if system is configured to not reboot on panic, say the
"panic_timeout" parameter equals 0, it will likely print out many noisy
message like WARN() call stack for each and every CPU except the panic
one, messages like below:

	WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 280 at kernel/sched/core.c:1198 set_task_cpu+0x183/0x190
	Call Trace:
	&lt;IRQ&gt;
	try_to_wake_up
	default_wake_function
	autoremove_wake_function
	__wake_up_common
	__wake_up_common_lock
	__wake_up
	wake_up_klogd_work_func
	irq_work_run_list
	irq_work_tick
	update_process_times
	tick_sched_timer
	__hrtimer_run_queues
	hrtimer_interrupt
	smp_apic_timer_interrupt
	apic_timer_interrupt

For people working in console mode, the screen will first show the panic
call stack, but immediately overridden by these noisy extra messages,
which makes debugging much more difficult, as the original context gets
lost on screen.

Also these noisy messages will confuse some users, as I have seen many bug
reporters posted the noisy message into bugzilla, instead of the real
panic call stack and context.

Adding a flag "suppress_printk" which gets set in panic() to avoid those
noisy messages, without changing current kernel behavior that both panic
blinking and sysrq magic key can work as is, suggested by Petr Mladek.

To verify this, make sure kernel is not configured to reboot on panic and
in console
 # echo c &gt; /proc/sysrq-trigger
to see if console only prints out the panic call stack.

Pull staging / IIO driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big staging and iio driver update for 5.2-rc1.

  Lots of tiny fixes all over the staging and IIO driver trees here,
  along with some new IIO drivers.

  The "counter" subsystem was added in here as well, as it is needed by
  the IIO drivers and subsystem.

  Also we ended up deleting two drivers, making this pull request remove
  a few hundred thousand lines of code, always a nice thing to see. Both
  of the drivers removed have been replaced with "real" drivers in their
  various subsystem directories, and they will be coming to you from
  those locations during this merge window.

  There are some core vt/selection changes in here, that was due to some
  cleanups needed for the speakup fixes. Those have all been acked by
  the various subsystem maintainers (i.e. me), so those are ok.

  We also added a few new drivers, for some odd hardware, giving new
  developers plenty to work on with basic coding style cleanups to come
  in the near future.

  Other than that, nothing unusual here.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues, other than an odd gcc warning for one of the new drivers that
  should be fixed up soon"

[ I fixed up the warning myself  - Linus ]

Pull mmiowb removal from Will Deacon:
 "Remove Mysterious Macro Intended to Obscure Weird Behaviours (mmiowb())

  Remove mmiowb() from the kernel memory barrier API and instead, for
  architectures that need it, hide the barrier inside spin_unlock() when
  MMIO has been performed inside the critical section.

  The only relatively recent changes have been addressing review
  comments on the documentation, which is in a much better shape thanks
  to the efforts of Ben and Ingo.

  I was initially planning to split this into two pull requests so that
  you could run the coccinelle script yourself, however it's been plain
  sailing in linux-next so I've just included the whole lot here to keep
  things simple"

<title>tty: rocket: fix incorrect forward declaration of 'rp_init()'</title>

<content type='text'>
Make the forward declaration actually match the real function
definition, something that previous versions of gcc had just ignored.

This is another patch to fix new warnings from gcc-9 before I start the
merge window pulls.  I don't want to miss legitimate new warnings just
because my system update brought a new compiler with new warnings.

<title>tty: serial: add driver for the SiFive UART</title>

<id>45c054d0815b1530d7c7ff8441389a0421dd05e7</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a serial driver for the SiFive UART, found on SiFive FU540 devices
(among others).

The underlying serial IP block is relatively basic, and currently does
not support serial break detection.  Further information on the IP
block can be found in the documentation and Chisel sources:

    https://static.dev.sifive.com/FU540-C000-v1.0.pdf

    https://github.com/sifive/sifive-blocks/tree/master/src/main/scala/devices/uart

This driver was written in collaboration with Wesley Terpstra
&lt;wesley@sifive.com&gt;.

Tested on a SiFive HiFive Unleashed A00 board, using BBL and the open-
source FSBL (using a DT file based on what's targeted for mainline).

This revision incorporates changes based on comments by Julia Lawall
&lt;julia.lawall@lip6.fr&gt;, Emil Renner Berthing &lt;kernel@esmil.dk&gt;, and
Andreas Schwab &lt;schwab@suse.de&gt;.  Thanks also to Andreas for testing
the driver with his userspace and reporting a bug with the
set_termios implementation.
