    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull ARM updates from Russell King:
     "Included in this update are both some long term fixes and some new
      features.
    
      Fixes:
    
       - An integer overflow in the calculation of ELF_ET_DYN_BASE.
    
       - Avoiding OOMs for high-order IOMMU allocations
    
       - SMP requires the data cache to be enabled for synchronisation
         primitives to work, so prevent the CPU_DCACHE_DISABLE option being
         visible on SMP builds.
    
       - A bug going back 10+ years in the noMMU ARM94* CPU support code,
         where it corrupts registers.  Found by folk getting Linux running
         on their cameras.
    
       - Versatile Express needs an errata workaround enabled for CPU
         hot-unplug to work.
    
      Features:
    
       - Clean up module linker by handling out of range relocations
         separately from relocation cases we don't handle.
    
       - Fix a long term bug in the pci_mmap_page_range() code, which we
         hope won't impact userspace (we hope there's no users of the
         existing broken interface.)
    
       - Don't map DMA coherent allocations when we don't have a MMU.
    
       - Drop experimental status for SMP_ON_UP.
    
       - Warn when DT doesn't specify ePAPR mandatory cache properties.
    
       - Add documentation concerning how we find the start of physical
         memory for AUTO_ZRELADDR kernels, detailing why we have chosen the
         mask and the implications of changing it.
    
       - Updates from Ard Biesheuvel to address some issues with large
         kernels (such as allyesconfig) failing to link.
    
       - Allow hibernation to work on modern (ARMv7) CPUs - this appears to
         have never worked in the past on these CPUs.
    
       - Enable IRQ_SHOW_LEVEL, which changes the /proc/interrupts output
         format (hopefully without userspace breaking...  let's hope that if
         it causes someone a problem, they tell us.)
    
       - Fix tegra-ahb DT offsets.
    
       - Rework ARM errata 643719 code (and ARMv7 flush_cache_louis()/
         flush_dcache_all()) code to be more efficient, and enable this
         errata workaround by default for ARMv7+SMP CPUs.  This complements
         the Versatile Express fix above.
    
       - Rework ARMv7 context code for errata 430973, so that only Cortex A8
         CPUs are impacted by the branch target buffer flush when this
         errata is enabled.  Also update the help text to indicate that all
         r1p* A8 CPUs are impacted.
    
       - Switch ARM to the generic show_mem() implementation, it conveys all
         the information which we were already reporting.
    
       - Prevent slow timer sources being used for udelay() - timers running
         at less than 1MHz are not useful for this, and can cause udelay()
         to return immediately, without any wait.  Using such a slow timer
         is silly.
    
       - VDSO support for 32-bit ARM, mainly for gettimeofday() using the
         ARM architected timer.
    
       - Perf support for Scorpion performance monitoring units"
    
    vdso semantic conflict fixed up as per linux-next.
