sh: mach-rsk: Update for parse_mtd_partitions() fallout.
The RSK+ setup code was doing some pretty dubious things with
parse_mtd_partitions() in order to populate the physmap-flash map
platform data. The physmap-flash driver contains all of the functionality
that we require already, so simply drop the special casing and pad out
the platform data accordingly.
The cache functions lock out interrupts for long periods; this patch
reduces the impact when operating on large address ranges. In such
cases it will:
- Invalidate the entire cache rather than individual addresses.
- Do nothing when flushing the operand cache in write-through mode.
- When flushing the operand cache in write-back mdoe, index the
search for matching addresses on the cache entires instead of the
addresses to flush
Note: sh2a__flush_purge_region was only invalidating the operand
cache, this adds flush.

ARM: mach-shmobile: r8a7779 SMP support V3
This patch contains r8a7779 SMP support V3 - now including
CPU hotplug offine and online support. The r8a7779 power
domain code is tied together with SMP glue code which allows
us to control the power domains via CPU hotplug.
At this point the kernel boots with the 4 Cortex-A9 cores in
SMP mode and all CPU cores except CPU0 can be hotplugged.
The code in platsmp.c is quite far from pretty, but it is
kept like that intentionally to avoid creating layers of
code that will go away in the near future anyway. The code
needs to be updated when some per-SoC handling code will be
added to the ARM architecture, see the following patch for

Eric and David reported dead machines and traced it to commit a195f004 ("sched: Fix load-balance lock-breaking"), it turns out
there's still a scenario where we can end up re-trying forever.
Since there is no strict forward progress guarantee in the
load-balance iteration we can get stuck re-retrying the same
task-set over and over.
Creating a forward progress guarantee with the existing
structure is somewhat non-trivial, for now simply terminate the

lib: use generic pci_iomap on all architectures
Many architectures don't want to pull in iomap.c,
so they ended up duplicating pci_iomap from that file.
That function isn't trivial, and we are going to modify it
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/14/183
so the duplication hurts.
This reduces the scope of the problem significantly,
by moving pci_iomap to a separate file and
referencing that from all architectures.

do_notify_parent and do_notify_parent_cldstop: map task's uid to parent's

ptrace_signal maps parent's uid into current's user namespace before
including in signal to current. IIUC Oleg has argued that this shouldn't
matter as the debugger will play with it, but it seems like not converting
the value currently being set is misleading.
Changelog:
Sep 20: Inspired by Oleg's suggestion, define map_cred_ns() helper to
simplify callers and help make clear what we are translating
(which uid into which namespace). Passing the target task would
make callers even easier to read, but we pass in user_ns because
current_user_ns() != task_cred_xxx(current, user_ns).
Sep 20: As recommended by Oleg, also put task_pid_vnr() under rcu_read_lock
in ptrace_signal().
Sep 23: In send_signal(), detect when (user) signal is coming from an
ancestor or unrelated user namespace. Pass that on to __send_signal,
which sets si_uid to 0 or overflowuid if needed.
Oct 12: Base on Oleg's fixup_uid() patch. On top of that, handle all
SI_FROMKERNEL cases at callers, because we can't assume sender is
current in those cases.

alloc_ordered_workqueue() is converted to a macro to unify varargs

procfs: add hidepid= and gid= mount options
Add support for mount options to restrict access to /proc/PID/
directories. The default backward-compatible "relaxed" behaviour is left
untouched.
The first mount option is called "hidepid" and its value defines how much
info about processes we want to be available for non-owners:
hidepid=0 (default) means the old behavior - anybody may read all
world-readable /proc/PID/* files.
hidepid=1 means users may not access any /proc/<pid>/ directories, but
their own. Sensitive files like cmdline, sched*, status are now protected
against other users. As permission checking done in proc_pid_permission()
and files' permissions are left untouched, programs expecting specific
files' modes are not confused.
hidepid=2 means hidepid=1 plus all /proc/PID/ will be invisible to other
users. It doesn't mean that it hides whether a process exists (it can be
learned by other means, e.g. by kill -0 $PID), but it hides process' euid
and egid. It compicates intruder's task of gathering info about running
processes, whether some daemon runs with elevated privileges, whether
another user runs some sensitive program, whether other users run any
program at all, etc.
gid=XXX defines a group that will be able to gather all processes' info
(as in hidepid=0 mode). This group should be used instead of putting
nonroot user in sudoers file or something. However, untrusted users (like
daemons, etc.) which are not supposed to monitor the tasks in the whole
system should not be added to the group.
hidepid=1 or higher is designed to restrict access to procfs files, which
might reveal some sensitive private information like precise keystrokes
timings:
hidepid=1/2 doesn't break monitoring userspace tools. ps, top, pgrep, and
conky gracefully handle EPERM/ENOENT and behave as if the current user is
the only user running processes. pstree shows the process subtree which
contains "pstree" process.
Note: the patch doesn't deal with setuid/setgid issues of keeping
preopened descriptors of procfs files (like
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/2/7/368). We rely on that the leaked
information like the scheduling counters of setuid apps doesn't threaten
anybody's privacy - only the user started the setuid program may read the
counters.

procfs: introduce the /proc/<pid>/map_files/ directory
This one behaves similarly to the /proc/<pid>/fd/ one - it contains
symlinks one for each mapping with file, the name of a symlink is
"vma->vm_start-vma->vm_end", the target is the file. Opening a symlink
results in a file that point exactly to the same inode as them vma's one.
For example the ls -l of some arbitrary /proc/<pid>/map_files/
1. When dumping a task mappings we do know exact file that is mapped
by particular region. We do this by opening
/proc/$pid/map_files/$address symlink the way we do with file
descriptors.
2. This also helps in determining which anonymous shared mappings are
shared with each other by comparing the inodes of them.
3. When restoring a set of processes in case two of them has a mapping
shared, we map the memory by the 1st one and then open its
/proc/$pid/map_files/$address file and map it by the 2nd task.
Using /proc/$pid/maps for this is quite inconvenient since it brings
repeatable re-reading and reparsing for this text file which slows down
restore procedure significantly. Also as being pointed in (3) it is a way
easier to use top level shared mapping in children as
/proc/$pid/map_files/$address when needed.

Nothing requires that we lock the filesystem until the root inode is
provided.
Also iget5_locked() triggers a warning because we are holding the
filesystem lock while allocating the inode, which result in a lockdep
suspicion that we have a lock inversion against the reclaim path:
The deadlock shouldn't happen since we are doing that allocation in the
mount path, the filesystem is not available for any reclaim. Still the
warning is annoying.
To solve this, acquire the lock later only where we need it, right before
calling reiserfs_read_locked_inode() that wants to lock to walk the tree.
