Pull timer fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A few fixes for timekeeping and timers:

   - Plug a subtle race due to a missing READ_ONCE() in the timekeeping
     code where reloading of a pointer results in an inconsistent
     callback argument being supplied to the clocksource->read function.

   - Correct the CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW sub-nanosecond accounting in the
     time keeping core code, to prevent a possible discontuity.

   - Apply a similar fix to the arm64 vdso clock_gettime()
     implementation

   - Add missing includes to clocksource drivers, which relied on
     indirect includes which fails in certain configs.

   - Use the proper iomem pointer for read/iounmap in a probe function"

Pull timer fix from Eric Biederman:
 "This fixes an issue of confusing injected signals with the signals
  from posix timers that has existed since posix timers have been in the
  kernel.

  This patch is slightly simpler than my earlier version of this patch
  as I discovered in testing that I had misspelled "#ifdef
  CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS". So I deleted that unnecessary test and made
  setting of resched_timer uncondtional.

  I have tested this and verified that without this patch there is a
  nasty hang that is easy to trigger, and with this patch everything
  works properly"

Thomas Gleixner dixit:

  I missed.

Pull livepatching fix from Jiri Kosina:

If the event for which an AUX area is about to be allocated, does
not support setting up an AUX area, rb_alloc_aux() return -ENOTSUPP.

This error condition is being returned unfiltered to the user space,
and, for example, the perf tools fails with:

  failed to mmap with 524 (INTERNAL ERROR: strerror_r(524, 0x3fff497a1c8, 512)=22)

This error can be easily seen with "perf record -m 128,256 -e cpu-clock".

The 524 error code maps to -ENOTSUPP (in rb_alloc_aux()). The -ENOTSUPP
error code shall be only used within the kernel.  So the correct error
code would then be -EOPNOTSUPP.

With this commit, the perf tool then reports:

  failed to mmap with 95 (Operation not supported)

which is more clear.

rcu_read_(un)lock(), list_*_rcu(), and synchronize_rcu() are used for a secure
access and manipulation of the list of patches that modify the same function.
In particular, it is the variable func_stack that is accessible from the ftrace
handler via struct ftrace_ops and klp_ops.

Of course, it synchronizes also some states of the patch on the top of the
stack, e.g. func->transition in klp_ftrace_handler.

At the same time, this mechanism guards also the manipulation of
task->patch_state. It is modified according to the state of the transition and
the state of the process.

Now, all this works well as long as RCU works well. Sadly livepatching might
get into some corner cases when this is not true. For example, RCU is not
watching when rcu_read_lock() is taken in idle threads.  It is because they
might sleep and prevent reaching the grace period for too long.

There are ways how to make RCU watching even in idle threads, see
rcu_irq_enter(). But there is a small location inside RCU infrastructure when
even this does not work.

This small problematic location can be detected either before calling
rcu_irq_enter() by rcu_irq_enter_disabled() or later by rcu_is_watching().
Sadly, there is no safe way how to handle it.  Once we detect that RCU was not
watching, we might see inconsistent state of the function stack and the related
variables in klp_ftrace_handler(). Then we could do a wrong decision, use an
incompatible implementation of the function and break the consistency of the
system. We could warn but we could not avoid the damage.

Fortunately, ftrace has similar problems and they seem to be solved well there.
It uses a heavy weight implementation of some RCU operations. In particular, it
replaces:

  + rcu_read_lock() with preempt_disable_notrace()
  + rcu_read_unlock() with preempt_enable_notrace()
  + synchronize_rcu() with schedule_on_each_cpu(sync_work)

My understanding is that this is RCU implementation from a stone age. It meets
the core RCU requirements but it is rather ineffective. Especially, it does not
allow to batch or speed up the synchronize calls.

On the other hand, it is very trivial. It allows to safely trace and/or
livepatch even the RCU core infrastructure.  And the effectiveness is a not a
big issue because using ftrace or livepatches on productive systems is a rare
operation.  The safety is much more important than a negligible extra load.

Note that the alternative implementation follows the RCU principles. Therefore,
     we could and actually must use list_*_rcu() variants when manipulating the
     func_stack.  These functions allow to access the pointers in the right
     order and with the right barriers. But they do not use any other
     information that would be set only by rcu_read_lock().

Also note that there are actually two problems solved in ftrace:

First, it cares about the consistency of RCU read sections.  It is being solved
the way as described and used in this patch.

Second, ftrace needs to make sure that nobody is inside the dynamic trampoline
when it is being freed. For this, it also calls synchronize_rcu_tasks() in
preemptive kernel in ftrace_shutdown().

Livepatch has similar problem but it is solved by ftrace for free.
klp_ftrace_handler() is a good guy and never sleeps. In addition, it is
registered with FTRACE_OPS_FL_DYNAMIC. It causes that
unregister_ftrace_function() calls:

	* schedule_on_each_cpu(ftrace_sync) - always
	* synchronize_rcu_tasks() - in preemptive kernel

The effect is that nobody is neither inside the dynamic trampoline nor inside
the ftrace handler after unregister_ftrace_function() returns.

Due to how the MONOTONIC_RAW accumulation logic was handled,
there is the potential for a 1ns discontinuity when we do
accumulations. This small discontinuity has for the most part
gone un-noticed, but since ARM64 enabled CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
in their vDSO clock_gettime implementation, we've seen failures
with the inconsistency-check test in kselftest.

This patch addresses the issue by using the same sub-ns
accumulation handling that CLOCK_MONOTONIC uses, which avoids
the issue for in-kernel users.

Since the ARM64 vDSO implementation has its own clock_gettime
calculation logic, this patch reduces the frequency of errors,
but failures are still seen. The ARM64 vDSO will need to be
updated to include the sub-nanosecond xtime_nsec values in its
calculation for this issue to be completely fixed.

In tests, which excercise switching of clocksources, a NULL
pointer dereference can be observed on AMR64 platforms in the
clocksource read() function:

u64 clocksource_mmio_readl_down(struct clocksource *c)
{
	return ~(u64)readl_relaxed(to_mmio_clksrc(c)->reg) & c->mask;
}

This is called from the core timekeeping code via:

	cycle_now = tkr->read(tkr->clock);

tkr->read is the cached tkr->clock->read() function pointer.
When the clocksource is changed then tkr->clock and tkr->read
are updated sequentially. The code above results in a sequential
load operation of tkr->read and tkr->clock as well.

If the store to tkr->clock hits between the loads of tkr->read
and tkr->clock, then the old read() function is called with the
new clock pointer. As a consequence the read() function
dereferences a different data structure and the resulting 'reg'
pointer can point anywhere including NULL.

This problem was introduced when the timekeeping code was
switched over to use struct tk_read_base. Before that, it was
theoretically possible as well when the compiler decided to
reload clock in the code sequence:

     now = tk->clock->read(tk->clock);

Add a helper function which avoids the issue by reading
tk_read_base->clock once into a local variable clk and then issue
the read function via clk->read(clk). This guarantees that the
read() function always gets the proper clocksource pointer handed
in.

Since there is now no use for the tkr.read pointer, this patch
also removes it, and to address stopping the fast timekeeper
during suspend/resume, it introduces a dummy clocksource to use
rather then just a dummy read function.
