Pull ARM fixes from Russell King:
"Another round of relatively small ARM fixes.
Thomas spotted that the strex backoff delay bit was a disable bit, so
it needed to be clear for this to work. Vladimir spotted that using a
restart block for the cache flush operation would return -EINTR, which
userspace was not expecting. Dmitry spotted that the auxiliary
control register accesses for Xscale were not correct"
* 'fixes' of git://ftp.arm.linux.org.uk/~rmk/linux-arm:
ARM: 8226/1: cacheflush: get rid of restarting block
ARM: 8222/1: mvebu: enable strex backoff delay
ARM: 8216/1: xscale: correct auxiliary register in suspend/resume
We cannot restart cacheflush safely if a process provides user-defined
signal handler and signal is pending. In this case -EINTR is returned
and it is expected that process re-invokes syscall. However, there are
a few problems with that:
* looks like nobody bothers checking return value from cacheflush
* but if it did, we don't provide the restart address for that, so the
process has to use the same range again
* ...and again, what might lead to looping forever
So, remove cacheflush restarting code and terminate cache flushing
as early as fatal signal is pending.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
"So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
problem. We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process. seccomp
hooks in before the audit syscall entry code. audit_syscall_entry
took as an argument the arch of the given syscall. Since the arch is
part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
syscall...
For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
there is audit which didn't have it. Use syscall_get_arch() in the
seccomp audit code. Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
syscall entry.
The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
records that had invalid spaces. Better locking around the task comm
field. Removing some dead functions and structs. Make some things
static. Really minor stuff"

...
These stock GCC versions miscompile the kernel by incorrectly optimising
the function epilogue code - by first increasing the stack pointer, and
then loading entries from below the stack. This means that an opportune
interrupt or exception will corrupt the current function's saved state,
which may result in the parent function seeing different register
values.
As this bug has been known to result in corrupted filesystems, and these
buggy compiler versions seem to be frequently used, we have little
option but to blacklist these compiler versions.
Distributions may have fixed PR58854, but as their compilers are totally
indistinguishable from the buggy versions, it is unfortunate that this
also results in those also being blacklisted. Given the filesystem
corruption potential of the original, this is the lesser evil. People
who want to build with their fixed compiler versions will need to adjust
the kernel source. (Distros need to think about the implications of
fixing such a compiler bug, and consider how to ensure that their fixed
compiler versions can be detected if they wish to avoid this.)

Pull percpu consistent-ops changes from Tejun Heo:
"Way back, before the current percpu allocator was implemented, static
and dynamic percpu memory areas were allocated and handled separately
and had their own accessors. The distinction has been gone for many
years now; however, the now duplicate two sets of accessors remained
with the pointer based ones - this_cpu_*() - evolving various other
operations over time. During the process, we also accumulated other
inconsistent operations.
This pull request contains Christoph's patches to clean up the
duplicate accessor situation. __get_cpu_var() uses are replaced with
with this_cpu_ptr() and __this_cpu_ptr() with raw_cpu_ptr().
Unfortunately, the former sometimes is tricky thanks to C being a bit
messy with the distinction between lvalues and pointers, which led to
a rather ugly solution for cpumask_var_t involving the introduction of
this_cpu_cpumask_var_ptr().
This converts most of the uses but not all. Christoph will follow up
with the remaining conversions in this merge window and hopefully
remove the obsolete accessors"

When compiling kprobes-test-arm.c the following error has been observed
/tmp/ccoT403o.s:21439: Error: bad immediate value for offset (4168)
This is caused by the compiler spilling it's literal pool too far away
from the site which is trying to reference it with a PC relative load.
This arises because the compiler is underestimating the size of the
inline assembler code present, which apparently it approximates as 4
bytes per line or instruction.
We fix this problem by moving the operations which generate more than
4 bytes out of the text section. Specifically, moving the .ascii
directives to the .rodata section.

The warning was introduced in 2009 (commit 4bf1fa5a34 ([ARM] 5613/1:
implement CALLER_ADDRESSx)). The only "problem" here is that
CALLER_ADDRESSx for x > 1 returns NULL which doesn't do much harm.
The drawback of implementing a fix (i.e. use unwind tables to implement CALLER_ADDRESSx) is that much of the unwinder code would need to be marked as not
traceable.

With compilers which follow the C99 standard (like modern versions of gcc and
clang), "extern inline" does the wrong thing (emits code for an externally
linkable version of the inline function). In this case using static inline
and removing the NULL version of return_address in return_address.c does
the right thing.

The sigpage is currently placed alongside shared libraries etc in the
address space. Similar to what x86_64 does for its VDSO, place the
sigpage at a randomized offset above the stack so that learning the
base address of the sigpage doesn't help expose where shared libraries
are loaded in the address space (and vice versa).
