Linus Torvalds 9e47aaef0b Fix ARM merge mistake in mvebu board file
Russell King points out that my ARM merge (commit eb3d3ec567) was
broken wrt the arch/arm/mach-mvebu/board-v7.c file, leaving in a stale
l2x0_of_init() call (it's now handled by the DT description).

Which is kind of embarrassing, since I knew about it as it wasn't the
only file that had similar merge issues.  At least I got the other ones
right.

Linus Torvalds eb3d3ec567 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm into next
Pull ARM updates from Russell King:

 - Major clean-up of the L2 cache support code.  The existing mess was
   becoming rather unmaintainable through all the additions that others
   have done over time.  This turns it into a much nicer structure, and
   implements a few performance improvements as well.

 - Clean up some of the CP15 control register tweaks for alignment
   support, moving some code and data into alignment.c

 - DMA properties for ARM, from Santosh and reviewed by DT people.  This
   adds DT properties to specify bus translations we can't discover
   automatically, and to indicate whether devices are coherent.

 - Hibernation support for ARM

 - Make ftrace work with read-only text in modules

 - add suspend support for PJ4B CPUs

 - rework interrupt masking for undefined instruction handling, which
   allows us to enable interrupts earlier in the handling of these
   exceptions.

 - support for big endian page tables

 - fix stacktrace support to exclude stacktrace functions from the
   trace, and add save_stack_trace_regs() implementation so that kprobes
   can record stack traces.

 - Add support for the Cortex-A17 CPU.

 - Remove last vestiges of ARM710 support.

 - Removal of ARM "meminfo" structure, finally converting us solely to
   memblock to handle the early memory initialisation.

1. Remove CLONE_KERNEL, it has no users and it is dangerous.

   The (old) comment says "List of flags we want to share for kernel
   threads" but this is not true, we do not want to share ->sighand by
   default. This flag can only be used if the caller is sure that both
   parent/child will never play with signals (say, allow_signal/etc).

2. Change rest_init() to clone kernel_init() without CLONE_SIGHAND.

   In this case CLONE_SIGHAND does not really hurt, and it looks like
   optimization because copy_sighand() can avoid kmem_cache_alloc().

   But in fact this only adds the minor pessimization. kernel_init()
   is going to exec the init process, and de_thread() will need to
   unshare ->sighand and do kmem_cache_alloc(sighand_cachep) anyway,
   but it needs to do more work and take tasklist_lock and siglock.

Prarit Bhargava 7b0b73d766 init/main.c: add initcall_blacklist kernel parameter
When a module is built into the kernel the module_init() function
becomes an initcall.  Sometimes debugging through dynamic debug can
help, however, debugging built in kernel modules is typically done by
changing the .config, recompiling, and booting the new kernel in an
effort to determine exactly which module caused a problem.

This patchset can be useful stand-alone or combined with initcall_debug.
There are cases where some initcalls can hang the machine before the
console can be flushed, which can make initcall_debug output inaccurate.
Having the ability to skip initcalls can help further debugging of these
scenarios.

Usage: initcall_blacklist=<list of comma separated initcalls>

ex) added "initcall_blacklist=sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and
the log contains:

	blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init
	...
	...
	initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted

ex) added "initcall_blacklist=foo_bar,sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter
and the log contains:

	blacklisting initcall foo_bar
	blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init
	...
	...
	initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted

Andrew Morton d62cf81524 init/main.c: don't use pr_debug()
Pertially revert commit ea676e846a ("init/main.c: convert to
pr_foo()").

Unbeknownst to me, pr_debug() is different from the other pr_foo()
levels: pr_debug() is a no-op when DEBUG is not defined.

Happily, init/main.c does have a #define DEBUG so we didn't break
initcall_debug.  But the functioning of initcall_debug should not be
dependent upon the presence of that #define DEBUG.
