      cpufreq: Allow stop CPU callback to be used by all cpufreq drivers · 789ca243
      Preeti U Murthy authored
      Commit 367dc4aa ("cpufreq: Add stop CPU callback to
      cpufreq_driver interface") introduced the stop CPU callback for
      intel_pstate drivers. During the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE stage, this
      callback is invoked so that drivers can take some action on the
      pstate of the cpu before it is taken offline. This callback was
      assumed to be useful only for those drivers which have implemented
      the set_policy CPU callback because they have no other way to take
      action about the cpufreq of a CPU which is being hotplugged out
      except in the exit callback which is called very late in the offline
      process.
      
      The drivers which implement the target/target_index callbacks were
      expected to take care of requirements like the ones that commit
      367dc4aa addresses in the GOV_STOP notification event. But there
      are disadvantages to restricting the usage of stop CPU callback
      to cpufreq drivers that implement the set_policy callbacks and who
      want to take explicit action on the setting the cpufreq during a
      hotplug operation.
      
      1.GOV_STOP gets called for every CPU offline and drivers would usually
      want to take action when the last cpu in the policy->cpus mask
      is taken offline. As long as there is more than one cpu in the
      policy->cpus mask, cpufreq core itself makes sure that the freq
      for the other cpus in this mask is set according to the maximum load.
      This is sensible and drivers which implement the target_index callback
      would mostly not want to modify that. However the cpufreq core leaves a
      loose end when the cpu in the policy->cpus mask is the last one to go offline;
      it does nothing explicit to the frequency of the core. Drivers may need
      a way to take some action here and stop CPU callback mechanism is the
      best way to do it today.
      
      2. We cannot implement driver specific actions in the GOV_STOP mechanism.
      So we will need another driver callback which is invoked from here which is
      unnecessary.
      
      Therefore this patch extends the usage of stop CPU callback to be used
      by all cpufreq drivers as long as they have this callback implemented
      and irrespective of whether they are set_policy/target_index drivers.
      The assumption is if the drivers find the GOV_STOP path to be a suitable
      way of implementing what they want to do with the freq of the cpu
      going offine,they will not implement the stop CPU callback at all.

      Pull Xtensa updates from Chris Zankel:
       "Xtensa improvements for 3.17:
         - support highmem on cores with aliasing data cache.  Enable highmem
           on kc705 by default
         - simplify addition of new core variants (no need to modify Kconfig /
           Makefiles)
         - improve robustness of unaligned access handler and its interaction
           with window overflow/underflow exception handlers
         - deprecate atomic and spill registers syscalls
         - clean up Kconfig: remove orphan MATH_EMULATION, sort 'select'
           statements
         - wire up renameat2 syscall.
      
        Various fixes:
         - fix address checks in dma_{alloc,free}_coherent (runtime BUG)
         - fix access to THREAD_RA/THREAD_SP/THREAD_DS (debug build breakage)
         - fix TLBTEMP_BASE_2 region handling in fast_second_level_miss
           (runtime unrecoverable exception)
         - fix a6 and a7 handling in fast_syscall_xtensa (runtime userspace
           register clobbering)
         - fix kernel/user jump out of fast_unaligned (potential runtime
           unrecoverabl exception)
         - replace termios IOCTL code definitions with constants (userspace
           build breakage)"

      Pull ARM SoC fixes from Olof Johansson:
       "Here's the weekly batch of fixes from arm-soc.
      
        The delta is a largeish negative delta, due to revert of SMP support
        for Broadcom's STB SoC -- it was accidentally merged before some
        issues had been addressed, so they will make a new attempt for 3.18.
        I didn't see a need for a full revert of the whole platform due to
        this, we're keeping the rest enabled.
      
        The rest is mostly:
      
         - a handful of DT fixes for i.MX (Hummingboard/Cubox-i in particular)
         - some MTD/NAND fixes for OMAP
         - minor DT fixes for shmobile
         - warning fix for UP builds on vexpress/spc
      
        There's also a couple of patches that wires up hwmod on TI's DRA7 SoC
        so it can boot.  Drivers and the rest had landed for 3.17, and it's
        small and isolated so it made sense to pick up now even if it's not a
        bugfix"
