Revert commit 2830a6d20139df2198d63235df7957712adb28e5.
We already perform the ida_simple_remove() in rtc_device_release(),
which is an appropriate place. Commit 2830a6d20 ("rtc: recycle id when
unloading a rtc driver") caused the kernel to emit
ida_remove called for id=0 which is not allocated.
warnings when rtc_device_release() tries to release an alread-released
ID.
Let's restore things to their previous state and then work out why
Vincent's kernel wasn't calling rtc_device_release() - presumably a bug
in a specific sub-driver.

If a series of scripts are executed, each triggering module loading via
unprintable bytes in the script header, kernel stack contents can leak
into the command line.
Normally execution of binfmt_script and binfmt_misc happens recursively.
However, when modules are enabled, and unprintable bytes exist in the
bprm->buf, execution will restart after attempting to load matching
binfmt modules. Unfortunately, the logic in binfmt_script and
binfmt_misc does not expect to get restarted. They leave bprm->interp
pointing to their local stack. This means on restart bprm->interp is
left pointing into unused stack memory which can then be copied into the
userspace argv areas.
After additional study, it seems that both recursion and restart remains
the desirable way to handle exec with scripts, misc, and modules. As
such, we need to protect the changes to interp.
This changes the logic to require allocation for any changes to the
bprm->interp. To avoid adding a new kmalloc to every exec, the default
value is left as-is. Only when passing through binfmt_script or
binfmt_misc does an allocation take place.
For a proof of concept, see DoTest.sh from:

The right dmi version is in SMBIOS if it's zero in DMI region
This issue was originally found from an oracle bug.
One customer noticed system UUID doesn't match between dmidecode & uek2.
- HP ProLiant BL460c G6 :
# cat /sys/devices/virtual/dmi/id/product_uuid
00000000-0000-4C48-3031-4D5030333531
# dmidecode | grep -i uuid
UUID: 00000000-0000-484C-3031-4D5030333531
From SMBIOS 2.6 on, spec use little-endian encoding for UUID other than
network byte order.
So we need to get dmi version to distinguish. If version is 0.0, the
real version is taken from the SMBIOS version. This is part of original
kernel comment in code.

The system uses global_dirtyable_memory() to calculate number of
dirtyable pages/pages that can be allocated to the page cache. A bug
causes an underflow thus making the page count look like a big unsigned
number. This in turn confuses the dirty writeback throttling to
aggressively write back pages as they become dirty (usually 1 page at a
time). This generally only affects systems with highmem because the
underflowed count gets subtracted from the global count of dirtyable
memory.
The problem was introduced with v3.2-4896-gab8fabd
Fix is to ensure we don't get an underflowed total of either highmem or
global dirtyable memory.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/joro/iommu
Pull IOMMU updates from Joerg Roedel:
"A few new features this merge-window. The most important one is
probably, that dma-debug now warns if a dma-handle is not checked with
dma_mapping_error by the device driver. This requires minor changes
to some architectures which make use of dma-debug. Most of these
changes have the respective Acks by the Arch-Maintainers.
Besides that there are updates to the AMD IOMMU driver for refactor
the IOMMU-Groups support and to make sure it does not trigger a
hardware erratum.
The OMAP changes (for which I pulled in a branch from Tony Lindgren's
tree) have a conflict in linux-next with the arm-soc tree. The
conflict is in the file arch/arm/mach-omap2/clock44xx_data.c which is
deleted in the arm-soc tree. It is safe to delete the file too so
solve the conflict. Similar changes are done in the arm-soc tree in
the common clock framework migration. A missing hunk from the patch
in the IOMMU tree will be submitted as a seperate patch when the
merge-window is closed."

The dma_pte_free_pagetable() function will only free a page table page
if it is asked to free the *entire* 2MiB range that it covers. So if a
page table page was used for one or more small mappings, it's likely to
end up still present in the page tables... but with no valid PTEs.
This was fine when we'd only be repopulating it with 4KiB PTEs anyway
but the same virtual address range can end up being reused for a
*large-page* mapping. And in that case were were trying to insert the
large page into the second-level page table, and getting a complaint
from the sanity check in __domain_mapping() because there was already a
corresponding entry. This was *relatively* harmless; it led to a memory
leak of the old page table page, but no other ill-effects.
Fix it by calling dma_pte_clear_range (hopefully redundant) and
dma_pte_free_pagetable() before setting up the new large page.

On a 4GB RAM machine, where Normal zone is much smaller than DMA32 zone,
the Normal zone gets fragmented in time. This requires relatively more
pressure in balance_pgdat to get the zone above the required watermark.
Unfortunately, the congestion_wait() call in there slows it down for a
completely wrong reason, expecting that there's a lot of
writeback/swapout, even when there's none (much more common). After a
few days, when fragmentation progresses, this flawed logic translates to
a very high CPU iowait times, even though there's no I/O congestion at
all. If THP is enabled, the problem occurs sooner, but I was able to
see it even on !THP kernels, just by giving it a bit more time to occur.
The proper way to deal with this is to not wait, unless there's
congestion. Thanks to Mel Gorman, we already have the function that
perfectly fits the job. The patch was tested on a machine which nicely
revealed the problem after only 1 day of uptime, and it's been working
great.

Fix up three empty files in arch/cris/ by sticking placeholder comments in
there to prevent the patch program from deleting them.
I decided not to delete the arch-v*/Kbuild files as it's possibly someone might
want to use them for genhdr-y lines in the future, but they could be deleted
and the pointer lines removed from asm/Kbuild. The uapi/arch-v*/Kbuild files
ought to be uneffected by such a change.
asm/swab.h didn't have anything outside of __KERNEL__ so nothing appeared in
uapi/asm/swab.h. The latter, however, is exported by Kbuild.asm.
This needs to be applied after the CRIS UAPI disintegration patch.

Documentation says that code requiring dma-buf should add it to
select, so inline fallbacks are not going to be used. A link error
will make it obvious what went wrong, instead of silently doing
nothing at runtime.

We never really clarified if unmap could be done in atomic context.
But since mapping might require sleeping, this implies mutex in use
to synchronize mapping/unmapping, so unmap could sleep as well. Add
a might_sleep() to clarify this.

Pull devicetree, gpio and spi bugfixes from Grant Likely:
"Device tree v3.8 bug fix:
- Fixes an undefined struct device build error and a missing symbol
export.
GPIO device driver bug fixes:
- gpio/mvebu-gpio: Make mvebu-gpio depend on OF_CONFIG
- gpio/ich: Add missing spinlock init
SPI device driver bug fixes:
- Most of this is bug fixes to the core code and the sh-hspi and
s3c64xx device drivers.
- There is also a patch here to add DT support to the Atmel driver.
This one should have been in the first round, but I missed it.
It's a low risk change contained within a single driver and the
Atmel maintainer has requested it."

Like the generic versions, we need to support a block size
of '1' for CTR mode AES.
This was discovered thanks to all of the new test cases added by
Jussi Kivilinna.

The basic scheme of the block mode assembler is that we start by
enabling the FPU, loading the key into the floating point registers,
then iterate calling the encrypt/decrypt routine for each block.
For the 256-bit key cases, we run short on registers in the unrolled
loops.
So the {ENCRYPT,DECRYPT}_256_2() macros reload the key registers that
get clobbered.
The unrolled macros, {ENCRYPT,DECRYPT}_256(), are not mindful of this.
So if we have a mix of multi-block and single-block calls, the
single-block unrolled 256-bit encrypt/decrypt can run with some
of the key registers clobbered.
Handle this by always explicitly loading those registers before using
the non-unrolled 256-bit macro.
This was discovered thanks to all of the new test cases added by
Jussi Kivilinna.
