sys_futex() is a wrapper to do_futex() which does not modify any values here: - uaddr, val and val3 are kept the same - op is masked with FUTEX_CMD_MASK, but is always set to FUTEX_WAKE. Therefore, val2 is always 0. - as utime is set to NULL, *timeout is NULL This patch is part of a series which removes in-kernel calls to syscalls.

do_kexec_load() can be called directly by compat_sys_kexec() as long as the same parameters checks are completed which are currently handled (also) by sys_kexec(). Therefore, move those to kexec_load_check(), call that newly introduced helper function from both sys_kexec() and compat_sys_kexec(), and duplicate the remaining code from sys_kexec() in compat_sys_kexec().

All call sites of sys_wait4() set *rusage to NULL. Therefore, there is no need for the copy_to_user() handling of *rusage, and we can use kernel_wait4() directly.

The syscall entry points to the kernel defined by SYSCALL_DEFINEx() and COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINEx() should only be called from userspace through kernel entry points, but not from the kernel itself. This will allow cleanups and optimizations to the entry paths *and* to the parts of the kernel code which currently need to pretend to be userspace in order to make use of syscalls.

On the CP110 components which are present on the Armada 7K/8K SoC we need to explicitly enable the clock for the registers. However it is not needed for the AP8xx component, that's why this clock is optional. With this patch both clock have now a name, but in order to be backward compatible, the name of the first clock is not used. It allows to still use this clock with a device tree using the old binding.

The original patch was from Leon Romanovsky, and a cut-n-paste separator in the commit message confused patchworks which then put the end of message separator in the wrong place in the downloaded patch, and I didn’t notice in time. The patch made it into the official branch, and the only way to fix it in-place was to rebase. Given the pain that a rebase causes, and the fact that the patch has relevant tags for stable and syzkaller, a revert of the munged patch and a reapplication of the original patch with the log message intact was done. * tag 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rdma/rdma: (25 commits) RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow while resizing CQ Revert "RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow while resizing CQ" RDMA/ucma: Check that user doesn't overflow QP state RDMA/mlx5: Fix integer overflow while resizing CQ RDMA/ucma: Limit possible option size IB/core: Fix possible crash to access NULL netdev RDMA/bnxt_re: Avoid Hard lockup during error CQE processing RDMA/core: Reduce poll batch for direct cq polling IB/mlx5: Fix an error code in __mlx5_ib_modify_qp() IB/mlx5: When not in dual port RoCE mode, use provided port as native IB/mlx4: Include GID type when deleting GIDs from HW table under RoCE IB/mlx4: Fix corruption of RoCEv2 IPv4 GIDs RDMA/qedr: Fix iWARP write and send with immediate RDMA/qedr: Fix kernel panic when running fio over NFSoRDMA RDMA/qedr: Fix iWARP connect with port mapper RDMA/qedr: Fix ipv6 destination address resolution IB/core : Add null pointer check in addr_resolve RDMA/bnxt_re: Fix the ib_reg failure cleanup RDMA/bnxt_re: Fix incorrect DB offset calculation RDMA/bnxt_re: Unconditionly fence non wire memory operations ...
