Currently, the clksrc-probe is not able to handle any error from the init
functions. There are different issues with the current code:
- the code is duplicated in the init functions by writing error
- every driver tends to panic in its own init function
- counting the number of clocksources is not reliable
This patch adds another table to store the functions returning an error.
The table is temporary while we convert all the drivers to return an error
and will disappear.

The macro OF_DECLARE_1 expect a void (*func)(struct device_node *) while the
OF_DECLARE_2 expect a int (*func)(struct device_node *, struct device_node *).
The second one allows to pass an init function returning a value, which make
possible to call the functions in the table and check the return value in order
to catch at a higher level the errors and handle them from there instead of
doing a panic in each driver (well at least this is the case for the clkevt).
Unfortunately the OF_DECLARE_1 does not allow that and that lead to some code
duplication and crappyness in the drivers.
The OF_DECLARE_1 is used by all the clk drivers and the clocksource/clockevent
drivers. It is not possible to do the change in one shot as we have to change
all the init functions.
The OF_DECLARE_2 specifies an init function prototype with two parameters with
the node and its parent. The latter won't be used, ever, in the timer drivers.
Introduce a OF_DECLARE_1_RET macro to be used, and hopefully we can smoothly
and iteratively change the users of OF_DECLARE_1 to use the new macro instead.

udelay_test_single() uses ktime_get_ts() to get two timespec values

uses the same to printk() the current monotonic time.
Both of these are y2038 safe on all machines, but we want to
get rid of struct timespec anyway, so this converts the code to
use ktime_get_ns() and ktime_get_ts64() respectively.

The problem is, that old_vsyscall_fixup adds an extra 1ns even though
xtime_nsec is already held in full nsecs and the remainder in this
case is 0. Do the rounding up buisness only if needed.

timerfd gives processes a way to set wake alarms, but unlike timers made using
timer_create, timerfds don't check whether the process has CAP_WAKE_ALARM
before setting alarm-time timers. CAP_WAKE_ALARM is supposed to gate this
behavior and so it makes sense that we should deny permission to create such
timerfds if the process doesn't have this capability.

The /dev/ptmx device node is changed to lookup the directory entry "pts"
in the same directory as the /dev/ptmx device node was opened in. If
there is a "pts" entry and that entry is a devpts filesystem /dev/ptmx
uses that filesystem. Otherwise the open of /dev/ptmx fails.
The DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES configuration option is removed, so that
userspace can now safely depend on each mount of devpts creating a new
instance of the filesystem.
Each mount of devpts is now a separate and equal filesystem.
Reserved ttys are now available to all instances of devpts where the
mounter is in the initial mount namespace.
A new vfs helper path_pts is introduced that finds a directory entry
named "pts" in the directory of the passed in path, and changes the
passed in path to point to it. The helper path_pts uses a function
path_parent_directory that was factored out of follow_dotdot.
In the implementation of devpts:
- devpts_mnt is killed as it is no longer meaningful if all mounts of
devpts are equal.
- pts_sb_from_inode is replaced by just inode->i_sb as all cached
inodes in the tty layer are now from the devpts filesystem.
- devpts_add_ref is rolled into the new function devpts_ptmx. And the
unnecessary inode hold is removed.
- devpts_del_ref is renamed devpts_release and reduced to just a
deacrivate_super.
- The newinstance mount option continues to be accepted but is now
ignored.
In devpts_fs.h definitions for when !CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are removed as
they are never used.
Documentation/filesystems/devices.txt is updated to describe the current
situation.
This has been verified to work properly on openwrt-15.05, centos5,
centos6, centos7, debian-6.0.2, debian-7.9, debian-8.2, ubuntu-14.04.3,
ubuntu-15.10, fedora23, magia-5, mint-17.3, opensuse-42.1,
slackware-14.1, gentoo-20151225 (13.0?), archlinux-2015-12-01. With the
caveat that on centos6 and on slackware-14.1 that there wind up being
two instances of the devpts filesystem mounted on /dev/pts, the lower
copy does not end up getting used.

This means the userspace program clock_adjtime called the clock_adjtime()
syscall and then crashed inside the compat_get_timex() function.
Syscalls should never crash programs, but instead return EFAULT.
The IIR register contains the executed instruction, which disassebles
into "ldw 0(sr3,r5),r9".
This load-word instruction is part of __get_user() which tried to read the word
at %r5/IOR (0xfa6f7fff). This means the unaligned handler jumped in. The
unaligned handler is able to emulate all ldw instructions, but it fails if it
fails to read the source e.g. because of page fault.
The following program reproduces the problem:
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <sys/mman.h>
int main(void) {
/* allocate 8k */
char *ptr = mmap(NULL, 2*4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
/* free second half (upper 4k) and make it invalid. */
munmap(ptr+4096, 4096);
/* syscall where first int is unaligned and clobbers into invalid memory region */
/* syscall should return EFAULT */
return syscall(__NR_clock_adjtime, 0, ptr+4095);
}
To fix this issue we simply need to check if the faulting instruction address
is in the exception fixup table when the unaligned handler failed. If it
is, call the fixup routine instead of crashing.
While looking at the unaligned handler I found another issue as well: The
target register should not be modified if the handler was unsuccessful.

This patch fixes backtrace on PA-RISC
There were several problems:
1) The code that decodes instructions handles instructions that subtract
from the stack pointer incorrectly. If the instruction subtracts the
number X from the stack pointer the code increases the frame size by
(0x100000000-X). This results in invalid accesses to memory and
recursive page faults.
2) Because gcc reorders blocks, handling instructions that subtract from
the frame pointer is incorrect. For example, this function
int f(int a)
{
if (__builtin_expect(a, 1))
return a;
g();
return a;
}
is compiled in such a way, that the code that decreases the stack
pointer for the first "return a" is placed before the code for "g" call.
If we recognize this decrement, we mistakenly believe that the frame
size for the "g" call is zero.
To fix problems 1) and 2), the patch doesn't recognize instructions that
decrease the stack pointer at all. To further safeguard the unwind code
against nonsense values, we don't allow frame size larger than
Total_frame_size.
3) The backtrace is not locked. If stack dump races with module unload,
invalid table can be accessed.
This patch adds a spinlock when processing module tables.
Note, that for correct backtrace, you need recent binutils.
Binutils 2.18 from Debian 5 produce garbage unwind tables.
Binutils 2.21 work better (it sometimes forgets function frames, but at
least it doesn't generate garbage).

Pull Ceph fixes from Sage Weil:
"We have a few follow-up fixes for the libceph refactor from Ilya, and
then some cephfs + fscache fixes from Zheng.
The first two FS-Cache patches are acked by David Howells and deemed
trivial enough to go through our tree. The rest fix some issues with
the ceph fscache handling (disable cache for inodes opened for write,
and simplify the revalidation logic accordingly, dropping the
now-unnecessary work queue)"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sage/ceph-client:
ceph: use i_version to check validity of fscache
ceph: improve fscache revalidation
ceph: disable fscache when inode is opened for write
ceph: avoid unnecessary fscache invalidation/revlidation
ceph: call __fscache_uncache_page() if readpages fails
FS-Cache: make check_consistency callback return int
FS-Cache: wake write waiter after invalidating writes
libceph: use %s instead of %pE in dout()s
libceph: put request only if it's done in handle_reply()
libceph: change ceph_osdmap_flag() to take osdc
- Fix an incorrect check introduced by recent ACPICA changes which
causes problems with booting KVM guests to happen, among other
things (Lv Zheng).
- Fix a backlight issue introduced by recent changes to the ACPI
video driver (Aaron Lu).
- Fix the ACPI processor initialization which attempts to register
an IO region without checking if that really is necessary and
sometimes prevents drivers loaded subsequently from registering
their resources which leads to boot issues (Rafael Wysocki).
