dependency
Instead of including the full <linux/signal.h>, we are going to include the
types-only <linux/signal_types.h> header in <linux/sched.h>, to further
decouple the scheduler header from the signal headers.
This means that various files which relied on the full <linux/signal.h> need
to be updated to gain an explicit dependency on it.
Update the code that relies on sched.h's inclusion of the <linux/signal.h> header.

A while back we added {read,write}_sysreg accessors to handle accesses
to system registers, without the usual boilerplate asm volatile,
temporary variable, etc.
This patch makes use of these across arm64 to make code shorter and
clearer. For sequences with a trailing ISB, the existing isb() macro is
also used so that asm blocks can be removed entirely.
A few uses of inline assembly for msr/mrs are left as-is. Those
manipulating sp_el0 for the current thread_info value have special
clobber requiremends.

Update handling of cacheflush syscall with changes made in arch/arm
counterpart:
- return error to userspace when flushing syscall fails
- split user cache-flushing into interruptible chunks
- don't bother rounding to nearest vma

Nathan reports that we leak TLS information from the parent context
during an exec, as we don't clear the TLS registers when flushing the
thread state.
This patch updates the flushing code so that we:
(1) Unconditionally zero the tpidr_el0 register (since this is fully
context switched for native tasks and zeroed for compat tasks)
(2) Zero the tp_value state in thread_info before clearing the
tpidrr0_el0 register for compat tasks (since this is only writable
by the set_tls compat syscall and therefore not fully switched).
A missing compiler barrier is also added to the compat set_tls syscall.

This patch adds __NR_* definitions to asm/unistd32.h, moves the
__NR_compat_* definitions to asm/unistd.h and removes all the explicit
unistd32.h includes apart from the one building the compat syscall
table. The aim is to have the compat __NR_* definitions available but
without colliding with the native syscall definitions (required by
lib/compat_audit.c to avoid duplicating the audit header files between
native and compat).

This function is used by sparc, powerpc tile and arm64 for compat support.
The patch adds a generic implementation with a wrapper for PowerPC to do
the u32->int sign extension.
The reason for a single patch covering powerpc, tile, sparc and arm64 is
to keep it bisectable, otherwise kernel building may fail with mismatched
function declarations.

This patch converts the arm64 port to use the generic sys_execve()
implementation removing the arm64-specific (compat_)sys_execve_wrapper()
functions.

Pull arm64 uapi disintegration from Catalin Marinas:
"UAPI headers for arm64 together with some clean-up to make it
possible:
- Do not export the COMPAT_* definitions to user
- Simplify the compat unistd32.h definitions and remove the
__SYSCALL_COMPAT guard
- Disintegrate the arch/arm64/include/asm/* headers"
* tag 'arm64-uapi' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmarinas/linux-aarch64:
UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate arch/arm64/include/asm
arm64: Do not export the compat-specific definitions to the user
arm64: Do not include asm/unistd32.h in asm/unistd.h
arm64: Remove unused definitions from asm/unistd32.h

getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.
Later, we'll add other information to the struct as it becomes
convenient.

This patch adds support for 32-bit applications. The vectors page is a
binary blob mapped into the application user space at 0xffff0000 (the
AArch64 toolchain does not support compilation of AArch32 code). Full
compatibility with ARMv7 user space is supported. The use of deprecated
ARMv7 functionality (SWP, CP15 barriers) has been disabled by default on
AArch64 kernels and unaligned LDM/STM is not supported.
Please note that only the ARM 32-bit EABI is supported, so no OABI
compatibility.
