Pull big execve/kernel_thread/fork unification series from Al Viro:
"All architectures are converted to new model. Quite a bit of that
stuff is actually shared with architecture trees; in such cases it's
literally shared branch pulled by both, not a cherry-pick.
A lot of ugliness and black magic is gone (-3KLoC total in this one):
- kernel_thread()/kernel_execve()/sys_execve() redesign.
We don't do syscalls from kernel anymore for either kernel_thread()
or kernel_execve():
kernel_thread() is essentially clone(2) with callback run before we
return to userland, the callbacks either never return or do
successful do_execve() before returning.
kernel_execve() is a wrapper for do_execve() - it doesn't need to
do transition to user mode anymore.
As a result kernel_thread() and kernel_execve() are
arch-independent now - they live in kernel/fork.c and fs/exec.c
resp. sys_execve() is also in fs/exec.c and it's completely
architecture-independent.
- daemonize() is gone, along with its parts in fs/*.c
- struct pt_regs * is no longer passed to do_fork/copy_process/
copy_thread/do_execve/search_binary_handler/->load_binary/do_coredump.
- sys_fork()/sys_vfork()/sys_clone() unified; some architectures
still need wrappers (ones with callee-saved registers not saved in
pt_regs on syscall entry), but the main part of those suckers is in
kernel/fork.c now."

There was some desire in large applications using MAP_HUGETLB or
SHM_HUGETLB to use 1GB huge pages on some mappings, and stay with 2MB on
others. This is useful together with NUMA policy: use 2MB interleaving
on some mappings, but 1GB on local mappings.
This patch extends the IPC/SHM syscall interfaces slightly to allow
specifying the page size.
It borrows some upper bits in the existing flag arguments and allows
encoding the log of the desired page size in addition to the *_HUGETLB
flag. When 0 is specified the default size is used, this makes the
change fully compatible.
Extending the internal hugetlb code to handle this is straight forward.
Instead of a single mount it just keeps an array of them and selects the
right mount based on the specified page size. When no page size is
specified it uses the mount of the default page size.
The change is not visible in /proc/mounts because internal mounts don't
appear there. It also has very little overhead: the additional mounts
just consume a super block, but not more memory when not used.
I also exported the new flags to the user headers (they were previously
under __KERNEL__). Right now only symbols for x86 and some other
architecture for 1GB and 2MB are defined. The interface should already
work for all other architectures though. Only architectures that define
multiple hugetlb sizes actually need it (that is currently x86, tile,
powerpc). However tile and powerpc have user configurable hugetlb
sizes, so it's not easy to add defines. A program on those
architectures would need to query sysfs and use the appropiate log2.

After commit "TTY: move tty buffers to tty_port", the tty buffers are
not freed in some drivers. This is because tty_port_destructor is not
called whenever a tty_port is freed. This was an assumption I counted
with but was unfortunately untrue. So fix the drivers to fulfil this
assumption.
To be sure, the TTY buffers (and later some stuff) are gone along with
the tty_port, we have to call tty_port_destroy at tear-down places.
This is mostly where the structure containing a tty_port is freed.
This patch does exactly that -- put tty_port_destroy at those places.

In order to promote interoperability between userspace tracers and ftrace,
add a trace_clock that reports raw TSC values which will then be recorded
in the ring buffer. Userspace tracers that also record TSCs are then on
exactly the same time base as the kernel and events can be unambiguously
interlaced.
Tested: Enabled a tracepoint and the "tsc" trace_clock and saw very large
timestamp values.
v2:
Move arch-specific bits out of generic code.
v3:
Rename "x86-tsc", cleanups
v7:
Generic arch bits in Kbuild.

The SO_ATTACH_FILTER option is set only. I propose to add the get
ability by using SO_ATTACH_FILTER in getsockopt. To be less
irritating to eyes the SO_GET_FILTER alias to it is declared. This
ability is required by checkpoint-restore project to be able to
save full state of a socket.
There are two issues with getting filter back.
First, kernel modifies the sock_filter->code on filter load, thus in
order to return the filter element back to user we have to decode it
into user-visible constants. Fortunately the modification in question
is interconvertible.
Second, the BPF_S_ALU_DIV_K code modifies the command argument k to
speed up the run-time division by doing kernel_k = reciprocal(user_k).
Bad news is that different user_k may result in same kernel_k, so we
can't get the original user_k back. Good news is that we don't have
to do it. What we need to is calculate a user2_k so, that
reciprocal(user2_k) == reciprocal(user_k) == kernel_k
i.e. if it's re-loaded back the compiled again value will be exactly
the same as it was. That said, the user2_k can be calculated like this
user2_k = reciprocal(kernel_k)
with an exception, that if kernel_k == 0, then user2_k == 1.
The optlen argument is treated like this -- when zero, kernel returns
the amount of sock_fprog elements in filter, otherwise it should be
large enough for the sock_fprog array.
changes since v1:
* Declared SO_GET_FILTER in all arch headers
* Added decode of vlan-tag codes

When we copy a user thread with CLONE_VM, we also have to reset
windowbase and windowstart to start a pristine stack frame. Otherwise,
overflows can happen using the address 0 as the stack pointer.
Also add a special case for vfork, which continues on the
parent stack until it calls execve. Because this could be a call8, we
need to spill the stack pointer of the previus frame (if still 'live' in
the register file).

When doing a fork (new VM), the new task has a mirror image of the
parent's stack, so keeps the same live register windows etc.
However when doing a clone with CLONE_VM, keeping the same VM
(eg. when creating a new thread), the child starts afresh on a new
stack -- it cannot share any part of the parent stack. It
especially cannot have the same live AR windows as the parent,
otherwise it will overwrite the parent stack on overflow, likely
causing corruption. (and so it did...)
Effectively, the register windows need to be spilled.
Turns out it's much easier to simply not copy parent register
windows when CLONE_VM is set.

getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

.fault now can retry. The retry can break state machine of .fault. In
filemap_fault, if page is miss, ra->mmap_miss is increased. In the second
try, since the page is in page cache now, ra->mmap_miss is decreased. And
these are done in one fault, so we can't detect random mmap file access.
Add a new flag to indicate .fault is tried once. In the second try, skip
ra->mmap_miss decreasing. The filemap_fault state machine is ok with it.
I only tested x86, didn't test other archs, but looks the change for other
archs is obvious, but who knows :)

Pull Xtensa patchset from Chris Zankel:
"The Xtensa tree has been broken for some time now, and this patchset
brings it back to life. It has been part of the linux-next tree for
some time.
Most changes are inside the xtensa subdirectory; the other changes
mostly add another rule to already existing #ifdefs to exclude Xtensa,
where required. The only 'common' change is to add two more sections
('.xt.prop' and '.xt.lit') to the white list in modpost."

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic
Pull asm-generic updates from Arnd Bergmann:
"This has three changes for asm-generic that did not really fit into
any other branch as normal asm-generic changes do. One is a fix for a
build warning, the other two are more interesting:
* A patch from Mark Brown to allow using the common clock
infrastructure on all architectures, so we can use the clock API in
architecture independent device drivers.
* The UAPI split patches from David Howells for the asm-generic
files. There are other architecture specific series that are going
through the arch maintainer tree and that depend on this one.
There may be a few small merge conflicts between Mark's patch and the
following arch header file split patches. In each case the solution
will be to keep the new "generic-y += clkdev.h" line, even if it ends
up being the only line in the Kbuild file."
* tag 'asm-generic' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic:
UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate include/asm-generic
asm-generic: Add default clkdev.h
asm-generic: xor: mark static functions as __maybe_unused

Historically, the top three bytes of personality have been used for
things such as ADDR_NO_RANDOMIZE, which made sense only for specific
architectures.
We now however have a flag there that is general no matter the
architecture (UNAME26); generally we have to be careful to preserve the
personality flags across exec().
This patch tries to fix all architectures that forcefully overwrite
personality flags during exec() (ppc32 and s390 have been fixed recently
by commits f9783ec862ea ("[S390] Do not clobber personality flags on
exec") and 59e4c3a2fe9c ("powerpc/32: Don't clobber personality flags on
exec") in a similar way already).

Patches from David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>:
This is to complete part of the UAPI disintegration for which the
preparatory patches were pulled recently.
Note that there are some fixup patches which are at the base of the
branch aimed at you, plus all arches get the asm-generic branch merged in too.
* 'disintegrate-asm-generic' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dhowells/linux-headers:
UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate include/asm-generic
UAPI: Fix conditional header installation handling (notably kvm_para.h on m68k)
c6x: remove c6x signal.h
UAPI: Split compound conditionals containing __KERNEL__ in Arm64
UAPI: Fix the guards on various asm/unistd.h files

CROSS_COMPILE must be setup before using e.g. cc-option (and a few other
as-*, cc-*, ld-* macros), else they will check against the wrong compiler
when cross-compiling, and may invoke the cross compiler with wrong or
suboptimal compiler options.

Put equivalent constants into TIOCGSERIAL and TIOCSSERIAL definitions:
size subfield of these IOCTL codes is not used and no other architecture
uses _IO* macros here.
The other way could be putting #include <linux/serial.h> into
net/bluetooth/rfcomm/tty.c.
