based mostly on arm and alpha versions. Architectures can define
__ARCH_WANT_KERNEL_EXECVE and use it, provided that
* they have working current_pt_regs(), even for kernel threads.
* kernel_thread-spawned threads do have space for pt_regs
in the normal location. Normally that's as simple as switching to
generic kernel_thread() and making sure that kernel threads do *not*
go through return from syscall path; call the payload from equivalent
of ret_from_fork if we are in a kernel thread (or just have separate
ret_from_kernel_thread and make copy_thread() use it instead of
ret_from_fork in kernel thread case).
* they have ret_from_kernel_execve(); it is called after
successful do_execve() done by kernel_execve() and gets normal
pt_regs location passed to it as argument. It's essentially
a longjmp() analog - it should set sp, etc. to the situation
expected at the return for syscall and go there. Eventually
the need for that sucker will disappear, but that'll take some
surgery on kernel_thread() payloads.

Normally (and that's the default) it's just task_pt_regs(current).
However, if an architecture can optimize that, it can do so by
making a macro of its own available from asm/ptrace.h. More
importantly, some architectures have task_pt_regs() working only
for traced tasks blocked on signal delivery. current_pt_regs()
needs to work for *all* processes, so before those architectures
start using stuff relying on current_pt_regs() they'll need a
properly working variant.

Let architectures select GENERIC_KERNEL_THREAD and have their copy_thread()
treat NULL regs as "it came from kernel_thread(), sp argument contains
the function new thread will be calling and stack_size - the argument for
that function". Switching the architectures begins shortly...

Kill UTASK_BP_HIT state, it buys nothing but complicates the code.
It is only used in uprobe_notify_resume() to decide who should be
called, we can check utask->active_uprobe != NULL instead. And this
allows us to simplify handle_swbp(), no need to clear utask->state.
Likewise we could kill UTASK_SSTEP, but UTASK_BP_HIT is worse and
imho should die. The problem is, it creates the special case when
task->utask is NULL, we can't distinguish RUNNING and BP_HIT. With
this patch utask == NULL always means RUNNING.

The ACPI BGRT driver accesses the BIOS logo image when it initializes.
However, ACPI 5.0 (which introduces the BGRT) recommends putting the
logo image in EFI boot services memory, so that the OS can reclaim that
memory. Production systems follow this recommendation, breaking the
ACPI BGRT driver.
Move the bulk of the BGRT code to run during a new EFI late
initialization phase, which occurs after switching EFI to virtual mode,
and after initializing ACPI, but before freeing boot services memory.
Copy the BIOS logo image to kernel memory at that point, and make it
accessible to the BGRT driver. Rework the existing ACPI BGRT driver to
act as a simple wrapper exposing that image (and the properties from the
BGRT) via sysfs.

The EFI initialization creates virtual mappings for EFI boot services
memory, so if a driver wants to access EFI boot services memory, it
cannot call ioremap itself; doing so will trip the WARN about mapping
RAM twice. Thus, a driver accessing EFI boot services memory must do so
via the existing mapping already created during EFI intiialization.
Since the EFI code already maintains a memory map for that memory, add a
function efi_lookup_mapped_addr to look up mappings in that memory map.

The NAND_CHIPOPTIONS_MSK has limited utility and is causing real bugs. It
silently masks off at least one flag that might be set by the driver
(NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE). This breaks the GPMI NAND driver and possibly
others.
Really, as long as driver writers exercise a small amount of care with
NAND_* options, this mask is not necessary at all; it was only here to
prevent certain options from accidentally being set by the driver. But the
original thought turns out to be a bad idea occasionally. Thus, kill it.
Note, this patch fixes some major gpmi-nand breakage.

This fixes the problem by moving LATCH back to where it was, but it

Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
(*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
mod_arch_specific struct.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes
the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes
the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
two arches that do this.
With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

Reduce the number of times we scan/skip the IPv6 exthdrs.
This patch contains a lot of API changes. This is done, to avoid
repeating the scan of finding the IPv6 headers, via ipv6_find_hdr(),
which is called by ip_vs_fill_iph_skb().
Finding the IPv6 headers is done as early as possible, and passed on
as a pointer "struct ip_vs_iphdr *" to the affected functions.
This patch reduce/removes 19 calls to ip_vs_fill_iph_skb().
Notice, I have choosen, not to change the API of function
pointer "(*schedule)" (in struct ip_vs_scheduler) as it can be
used by external schedulers, via {un,}register_ip_vs_scheduler.
Only 4 out of 10 schedulers use info from ip_vs_iphdr*, and when
they do, they are only interested in iph->{s,d}addr.

IPVS now supports fragmented packets, with support from nf_conntrack_reasm.c
Based on patch from: Hans Schillstrom.
IPVS do like conntrack i.e. use the skb->nfct_reasm
(i.e. when all fragments is collected, nf_ct_frag6_output()
starts a "re-play" of all fragments into the interrupted
PREROUTING chain at prio -399 (NF_IP6_PRI_CONNTRACK_DEFRAG+1)
with nfct_reasm pointing to the assembled packet.)
Notice, module nf_defrag_ipv6 must be loaded for this to work.
Report unhandled fragments, and recommend user to load nf_defrag_ipv6.
To handle fw-mark for fragments. Add a new IPVS hook into prerouting
chain at prio -99 (NF_IP6_PRI_NAT_DST+1) to catch fragments, and copy
fw-mark info from the first packet with an upper layer header.
IPv6 fragment handling should be the last thing on the IPVS IPv6
missing support list.

IPv6 packets can contain extension headers, thus its wrong to assume
that the transport/upper-layer header, starts right after (struct
ipv6hdr) the IPv6 header. IPVS uses this false assumption, and will
write SNAT & DNAT modifications at a fixed pos which will corrupt the
message.
To fix this, proper header position must be found before modifying
packets. Introducing ip_vs_fill_iph_skb(), which uses ipv6_find_hdr()
to skip the exthdrs. It finds (1) the transport header offset, (2) the
protocol, and (3) detects if the packet is a fragment.
Note, that fragments in IPv6 is represented via an exthdr. Thus, this
is detected while skipping through the exthdrs.
This patch depends on commit 84018f55a:
"netfilter: ip6_tables: add flags parameter to ipv6_find_hdr()"
This also adds a dependency to ip6_tables.
Originally based on patch from: Hans Schillstrom
kABI notes:
Changing struct ip_vs_iphdr is a potential minor kABI breaker,
because external modules can be compiled with another version of
this struct. This should not matter, as they would most-likely
be using a compiled-in version of ip_vs_fill_iphdr(). When
recompiled, they will notice ip_vs_fill_iphdr() no longer exists,
and they have to used ip_vs_fill_iph_skb() instead.
