Pull GPIO changes from Linus Walleij:
"Here is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v3.13 development cycle.
I've got ACKs for the things that affect other subsystems (or it's my
own subsystem, like pinctrl). Most of that pertain to an attempt from
my side to consolidate and get rid of custom GPIO implementations in
the ARM tree. I will continue doing this.
The main change this time is the new GPIO descriptor API, background
for this can be found in Corbet's summary from this january in LWN:
http://lwn.net/Articles/533632/
Summary:
- Merged the GPIO descriptor API from Alexandre Courbot. This is a
first step toward trying to get rid of the global GPIO numberspace
for the future.
- Add an API so that driver can flag that a certain GPIO line is
being used by a irqchip backend for generating IRQs, so that we can
enforce checks, like not allowing users to switch that line to an
output at runtime, since this makes no sense. Implemented
corresponding calls in a few select drivers.
- ACPI GPIO cleanups, refactorings and switch to using the
descriptor-based interface.
- Support for the TPS80036 Palmas GPIO variant.
- A new driver for the Broadcom Kona GPIO SoC IP block.
- Device tree support for the PCF857x driver.
- A set of ARM GPIO refactorings with the goal of getting rid of a
bunch of custom GPIO implementations from the arch/arm/* tree:
* Move the IOP GPIO driver to the GPIO subsystem and fix all users
to use the gpiolib API for accessing GPIOs. Delete the old
custom GPIO implementation.
* Delete the unused custom PXA GPIO implemention.
* Convert all users of the IXP4 custom GPIO implementation to use
gpiolib and delete the custom implementation.
* Delete the custom Gemini GPIO implementation, also completely
unused.
- Various cleanups and renamings"

Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"Main pin control pull request for the v3.13 cycle.
The changes hitting arch/blackfin are ACKed by the Blackfin
maintainer, and the device tree bindings are ACKed to the extent
possible by someone from the device tree maintainers group.
- Blackfin ADI pin control driver, we move yet another architecture
under this subsystem umbrella.
- Incremental updates to the Renesas Super-H PFC pin control driver.
New subdriver for the r8a7791 SoC.
- Non-linear GPIO ranges from the gpiolib side of things, this
enabled simplified device tree bindings by referring entire groups
of pins on some pin controller to act as back-end for a certain
GPIO-chip driver.
- Add the Abilis TB10x pin control driver used on the ARC
architecture. Also the corresponding GPIO driver is merged through
this tree, so the ARC has full support for pins and GPIOs after
this.
- Subdrivers for Freescale i.MX1, i.MX27 and i.MX50 pin controller
instances. The i.MX1 and i.MX27 is an entirely new family
(silicon) of controllers whereas i.MX50 is a variant of the
previous supported controller.
- Then the usual slew of fixes, cleanups and incremental updates"
The ARC DT changes are apparently still pending, that hopefully gets
sorted out in a timely manner.

This patch exports the gpiod_* family of API functions, a safer
alternative to the legacy GPIO interface. Differences between the gpiod
and legacy gpio APIs are:
- gpio works with integers, whereas gpiod operates on opaque handlers
which cannot be forged or used before proper acquisition
- gpiod get/set functions are aware of the active low state of a GPIO
- gpio consumers should now include <linux/gpio/consumer.h> to access
the new interface, whereas chips drivers will use
<linux/gpio/driver.h>
The legacy gpio API is now built as inline functions on top of gpiod.

It is currently often possible in many GPIO drivers to request
a GPIO line to be used as IRQ after calling gpio_to_irq() and,
as the gpiolib is not aware of this, set the same line to
output and start driving it, with undesired side effects.
As it is a bogus usage scenario to request a line flagged as
output to used as IRQ, we introduce APIs to let gpiolib track
the use of a line as IRQ, and also set this flag from the
userspace ABI.
The API is symmetric so that lines can also be flagged from
.irq_enable() and unflagged from IRQ by .irq_disable().
The debugfs file is altered so that we see if a line is
reserved for IRQ.

The include/asm-generic/hugetlb.h stubs that just vector huge_pte_*()
calls to the pte_*() implementations won't work in certain situations.
x86 and sparc, for example, return "unsigned long" from the bit
checks, and just go "return pte_val(pte) & PTE_BIT_FOO;"
But since huge_pte_*() returns 'int', if any high bits on 64-bit are
relevant, they get chopped off.
The net effect is that we can loop forever trying to COW a huge page,
because the huge_pte_write() check signals false all the time.

Rewrite the preempt_count macros in order to extract the 3 basic
preempt_count value modifiers:
__preempt_count_add()
__preempt_count_sub()
and the new:
__preempt_count_dec_and_test()
And since we're at it anyway, replace the unconventional
$op_preempt_count names with the more conventional preempt_count_$op.
Since these basic operators are equivalent to the previous _notrace()
variants, do away with the _notrace() versions.

We need a few special preempt_count accessors:
- task_preempt_count() for when we're interested in the preemption
count of another (non-running) task.
- init_task_preempt_count() for properly initializing the preemption
count.
- init_idle_preempt_count() a special case of the above for the idle
threads.
With these no generic code ever touches thread_info::preempt_count
anymore and architectures could choose to remove it.

The last remaining use for the storage key of the s390 architecture
is reference counting. The alternative is to make page table entries
invalid while they are old. On access the fault handler marks the
pte/pmd as young which makes the pte/pmd valid if the access rights
allow read access. The pte/pmd invalidations required for software
managed reference bits cost a bit of performance, on the other hand
the RRBE/RRBM instructions to read and reset the referenced bits are
quite expensive as well.

This patch cleans the initialization of dma contiguous framework. The
all-in-one dma_declare_contiguous() function is now separated into
dma_contiguous_reserve_area() which only steals the the memory from
memblock allocator and dma_contiguous_add_device() function, which
assigns given device to the specified reserved memory area. This improves
the flexibility in defining contiguous memory areas and assigning device
to them, because now it is possible to assign more than one device to
the given contiguous memory area. Such split in initialization procedure
is also required for upcoming device tree support.

Ben Tebulin reported:
"Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git
repository fails in 9/10 cases on git-fsck due to an SHA1/memory
failures. This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be
reproduced stably on two independent laptops. Git mailing list ran
out of ideas and for me this looks like some very exotic kernel issue"
and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f ("mm:
limit mmu_gather batching to fix soft lockups on !CONFIG_PREEMPT").
That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it
much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it
introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever
happened when running out of memory.
The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly
buggered. It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580 ("mm/mmu_gather:
enable tlb flush range in generic mmu_gather"), and the range handling
was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96c ("mm: fix the TLB
range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix
was not complete.
The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't
set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get
the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the
functions that actually flush the TLB. And so any such case that forgot
to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates.
Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range
setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in
zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range()
did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the
TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it
when initializing all the other tlb gather fields.
This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler. And the end
result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with
partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the
range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to
bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs.
Ben verified that this fixes his problem.
