commit 67a806d9499353fabd5b5ff07337f3aa88a1c3ba upstream.

The following build error occurred during an alpha build:

  net/core/sock.c:274:36: error: initializer element is not constant

Dave Anglin says:
&gt; Here is the line in sock.i:
&gt;
&gt; struct static_key memalloc_socks = ((struct static_key) { .enabled =
&gt; ((atomic_t) { (0) }) });

The above line contains two compound literals.  It also uses a designated
initializer to initialize the field enabled.  A compound literal is not a
constant expression.

The location of the above statement isn't fully clear, but if a compound
literal occurs outside the body of a function, the initializer list must
consist of constant expressions.

<title>alpha: Don't export SOCK_NONBLOCK to user space.</title>

commit a2fa3ccd7b43665fe14cb562761a6c3d26a1d13f upstream.

Currently we export SOCK_NONBLOCK to user space but that conflicts with
the definition from glibc leading to compilation errors in user programs
(e.g.  see Debian bug #658460).

The generic socket.h restricts the definition of SOCK_NONBLOCK to the
kernel, as does the MIPS specific socket.h, so let's do the same on
Alpha.

commit 0be421862b857e61964435ffcaa7499cf77a5e5a upstream.

After commit ec2212088c42 ("Disintegrate asm/system.h for Alpha"), the
fpu.h header which we install for userland started depending on
special_insns.h which is not installed.

However, fpu.h only uses that for __KERNEL__ code, so protect the
inclusion the same way to avoid build breakage in glibc:

  /usr/include/asm/fpu.h:4:31: fatal error: asm/special_insns.h: No such file or directory

commit ec2212088c42ff7d1362629ec26dda4f3e8bdad3

    "Disintegrate asm/system.h for Alpha"

combined with commit b4816afa3986704d1404fc48e931da5135820472

    "Move the asm-generic/system.h xchg() implementation to asm-generic/cmpxchg.h"

introduced the concept of asm/cmpxchg.h but the alpha arch
never got one.  Fork the cmpxchg content out of the asm/atomic.h
file to create one.

Some minor whitespace fixups were done on the block of code that
created the new file.

Pull DMA mapping branch from Marek Szyprowski:
 "Short summary for the whole series:

  A few limitations have been identified in the current dma-mapping
  design and its implementations for various architectures.  There exist
  more than one function for allocating and freeing the buffers:
  currently these 3 are used dma_{alloc, free}_coherent,
  dma_{alloc,free}_writecombine, dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent.

  For most of the systems these calls are almost equivalent and can be
  interchanged.  For others, especially the truly non-coherent ones
  (like ARM), the difference can be easily noticed in overall driver
  performance.  Sadly not all architectures provide implementations for
  all of them, so the drivers might need to be adapted and cannot be
  easily shared between different architectures.  The provided patches
  unify all these functions and hide the differences under the already
  existing dma attributes concept.  The thread with more references is
  available here:

    http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg09777.html

  These patches are also a prerequisite for unifying DMA-mapping
  implementation on ARM architecture with the common one provided by
  dma_map_ops structure and extending it with IOMMU support.  More
  information is available in the following thread:

    http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/12819

  More works on dma-mapping framework are planned, especially in the
  area of buffer sharing and managing the shared mappings (together with
  the recently introduced dma_buf interface: commit d15bd7ee445d
  "dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism").

  The patches in the current set introduce a new alloc/free methods
  (with support for memory attributes) in dma_map_ops structure, which
  will later replace dma_alloc_coherent and dma_alloc_writecombine
  functions."

People finally started piping up with support for merging this, so I'm
merging it as the last of the pending stuff from the merge window.
Looks like pohmelfs is going to wait for 3.5 and more external support
for merging.

Pull "Disintegrate and delete asm/system.h" from David Howells:
 "Here are a bunch of patches to disintegrate asm/system.h into a set of
  separate bits to relieve the problem of circular inclusion
  dependencies.

  I've built all the working defconfigs from all the arches that I can
  and made sure that they don't break.

  The reason for these patches is that I recently encountered a circular
  dependency problem that came about when I produced some patches to
  optimise get_order() by rewriting it to use ilog2().

  This uses bitops - and on the SH arch asm/bitops.h drags in
  asm-generic/get_order.h by a circuituous route involving asm/system.h.

  The main difficulty seems to be asm/system.h.  It holds a number of
  low level bits with no/few dependencies that are commonly used (eg.
  memory barriers) and a number of bits with more dependencies that
  aren't used in many places (eg.  switch_to()).

  These patches break asm/system.h up into the following core pieces:

    (1) asm/barrier.h

        Move memory barriers here.  This already done for MIPS and Alpha.

    (2) asm/switch_to.h

        Move switch_to() and related stuff here.

    (3) asm/exec.h

        Move arch_align_stack() here.  Other process execution related bits
        could perhaps go here from asm/processor.h.

    (4) asm/cmpxchg.h

        Move xchg() and cmpxchg() here as they're full word atomic ops and
        frequently used by atomic_xchg() and atomic_cmpxchg().

    (5) asm/bug.h

        Move die() and related bits.

    (6) asm/auxvec.h

        Move AT_VECTOR_SIZE_ARCH here.

  Other arch headers are created as needed on a per-arch basis."

Fixed up some conflicts from other header file cleanups and moving code
around that has happened in the meantime, so David's testing is somewhat
weakened by that.  We'll find out anything that got broken and fix it..
