Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
"This is the first pile; another one will come a bit later and will
contain SYSCALL_DEFINE-related patches.
- a bunch of signal-related syscalls (both native and compat)
unified.
- a bunch of compat syscalls switched to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
(fixing several potential problems with missing argument
validation, while we are at it)
- a lot of now-pointless wrappers killed
- a couple of architectures (cris and hexagon) forgot to save
altstack settings into sigframe, even though they used the
(uninitialized) values in sigreturn; fixed.
- microblaze fixes for delivery of multiple signals arriving at once
- saner set of helpers for signal delivery introduced, several
architectures switched to using those."

The commit [1] breaks builds and results in the following error
arch/mips/kernel/vpe.c: In function 'vpe_run':
arch/mips/kernel/vpe.c:708:16: error: invalid type argument of '->' (have 'struct list_head')
Taking a closer look at the conditional we notice that list_first_entry wont
ever return NULL. The easiest fix is to just drop the dead code.

We cannot use __init for earlyprintk code or data, since the kernel
parameter "keep_bootcon" allows leaving the boot console enabled.
Currently MIPS will crash/hang/die if you use keep_bootcon. The patch
fixes it at least on Lemote FuLoong mini-PC. Changes for other boards
were done based on what I could find with grep...

/proc/vmcore wasn't showing up in kdump kernels. It turns that that
for Octeon, the memory used by elfcorehdr wasn't being set aside
properly and it was getting clobbered before /proc/vmcore could get
it. So reserve the memory if it shows up in a memory area managed

[ralf@linux-mips.org: Add support for MIPS I ... IV legacy architecture
revisions. Also differenciate between MIPS32 and MIPS64 versions instead
of lumping them together as just r1 and r2.
Note to application programmers: this indicates the CPU's ISA level
It does not imply the current execution environment does support it. For
example an O32 application seeing "mips64r2" would still be restricted by
by the execution environment to 32-bit - but the kernel could run mips64r2
code. The same for a 32-bit kernel running on a 64-bit processor. This
field doesn't include ASEs or optional architecture modules nor other
detailed flags such as the availability of an FPU.]

Function tracing is currently broken for all 32 bit MIPS platforms.
When tracing is enabled, the kernel immediately hangs on boot.
This is a result of commit b732d439cb
that changes the kernel/trace/Kconfig file so that is no longer
forces FRAME_POINTER when FUNCTION_TRACING is enabled.
MIPS frame pointers are generally considered to be useless because
they cannot be used to unwind the stack. Unfortunately the MIPS
function tracing code has bugs that are masked by the use of frame
pointers. This commit fixes the bugs so that MIPS frame pointers
don't need to be enabled.
The bugs are a result of the odd calling sequence used to call the trace
routine. This calling sequence is inserted into every traceable function
when the tracing CONFIG option is enabled. This sequence is generated
for 32bit MIPS platforms by the compiler via the "-pg" flag.
Part of the sequence is "addiu sp,sp,-8" in the delay slot after every
call to the trace routine "_mcount" (some legacy thing where 2 arguments
used to be pushed on the stack). The _mcount routine is expected to
adjust the sp by +8 before returning. So when not disabled, the original
jalr and addiu will be there, so _mcount has to adjust sp.
The problem is that when tracing is disabled for a function, the
"jalr _mcount" instruction is replaced with a nop, but the
"addiu sp,sp,-8" is still executed and the stack pointer is left
trashed. When frame pointers are enabled the problem is masked
because any access to the stack is done through the frame
pointer and the stack pointer is restored from the frame pointer when
the function returns.
This patch writes two nops starting at the address of the "jalr _mcount"
instruction whenever tracing is disabled. This means that the
"addiu sp,sp.-8" will be converted to a nop along with the "jalr". When
disabled, there will be two nops.
This is SMP safe because the first time this happens is during
ftrace_init() which is before any other processor has been started.
Subsequent calls to enable/disable tracing when other CPUs ARE running
will still be safe because the enable will only change the first nop
to a "jalr" and the disable, while writing 2 nops, will only be changing
the "jalr". This patch also stops using stop_machine() to call the
tracer enable/disable routines and calls them directly because the
routines are SMP safe.
When the kernel first boots we have to be able to handle the gcc
generated jalr, addui sequence until ftrace_init gets a chance to run
and change the sequence. At this point mcount just adjusts the stack
and returns. When ftrace_init runs, we convert the jalr/addui to nops.
Then whenever tracing is enabled we convert the first nop to a "jalr
mcount+8". The mcount+8 entry point skips the stack adjust.
