      x86/kernel: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.h · 186f4360
      Paul Gortmaker authored 
      Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have
a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing
support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends.  That changed
when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file.

This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h
in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig.  The advantage
in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers;
adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what
headers we are effectively using.

Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for
export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance
for the presence of either and replace as needed.  Build testing
revealed some implicit header usage that was fixed up accordingly.

Note that some bool/obj-y instances remain since module.h is
the header for some exception table entry stuff, and for things
like __init_or_module (code that is tossed when MODULES=n).

      x86: Don't use module.h just for AUTHOR / LICENSE tags · 84e629b6
      Paul Gortmaker authored 
      The Kconfig controlling compilation of these files are:

 arch/x86/Kconfig.debug:config DEBUG_RODATA_TEST
 arch/x86/Kconfig.debug: bool "Testcase for the marking rodata read-only"

 arch/x86/Kconfig.debug:config X86_PTDUMP_CORE
 arch/x86/Kconfig.debug: def_bool n

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.

Lets remove the couple traces of modular infrastructure use, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

We delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
is already contained at the top of the file in the comments.

      tmpfs: fix regression hang in fallocate undo · 7f556567
      Hugh Dickins authored 
      The well-spotted fallocate undo fix is good in most cases, but not when
fallocate failed on the very first page.  index 0 then passes lend -1
to shmem_undo_range(), and that has two bad effects: (a) that it will
undo every fallocation throughout the file, unrestricted by the current
range; but more importantly (b) it can cause the undo to hang, because
lend -1 is treated as truncation, which makes it keep on retrying until
every page has gone, but those already fully instantiated will never go
away.  Big thank you to xfstests generic/269 which demonstrates this.

Fixes: b9b4bb26 ("tmpfs: don't undo fallocate past its last page")
