Pull irq updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Most of the IRQ subsystem changes in this cycle were irq-chip driver
  updates:

   - Qualcomm PDC wakeup interrupt support

   - Layerscape external IRQ support

   - Broadcom bcm7038 PM and wakeup support

   - Ingenic driver cleanup and modernization

   - GICv3 ITS preparation for GICv4.1 updates

   - GICv4 fixes

  There's also the series from Frederic Weisbecker that fixes memory
  ordering bugs for the irq-work logic, whose primary fix is to turn
  work-&gt;irq_work.flags into an atomic variable and then convert the
  complex (and buggy) atomic_cmpxchg() loop in irq_work_claim() into a
  much simpler atomic_fetch_or() call.

We need to convert flags to atomic_t in order to later fix an ordering
issue on atomic_cmpxchg() failure. This will allow us to use atomic_fetch_or().

Also clarify the nature of those flags.

strncmp(str, const, len) is error-prone because len is easy to have typo.
An example is the hard-coded len has counting error or sizeof(const)
forgets - 1.

So we prefer using newly introduced str_has_prefix() to substitute
such strncmp() to make code better.

<title>printk: Do not lose last line in kmsg buffer dump</title>

kmsg_dump_get_buffer() is supposed to select all the youngest log
messages which fit into the provided buffer.  It determines the correct
start index by using msg_print_text() with a NULL buffer to calculate
the size of each entry.  However, when performing the actual writes,
msg_print_text() only writes the entry to the buffer if the written len
is lesser than the size of the buffer.  So if the lengths of the
selected youngest log messages happen to precisely fill up the provided
buffer, the last log message is not included.

We don't want to modify msg_print_text() to fill up the buffer and start
returning a length which is equal to the size of the buffer, since
callers of its other users, such as kmsg_dump_get_line(), depend upon
the current behaviour.

Instead, fix kmsg_dump_get_buffer() to compensate for this.

For example, with the following two final prints:

[    6.427502] AAAAAAAAAAAAA
[    6.427769] BBBBBBBB12345

Currently on panic, kernel will lower the loglevel and print out pending
printk msg only with console_flush_on_panic().

Add an option for users to configure the "panic_print" to replay all
dmesg in buffer, some of which they may have never seen due to the
loglevel setting, which will help panic debugging .

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

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.
