488253ce49 [S390] Add hwcap flag for the etf3 enhancement facility
The Extended Translation Facility 3 (ETF3) added instructions which
allow conversions between different unicode character maps (UTF-8,
UTF-32 ...).  These instructions got enhanced with a later version of
the ETF3 allowing malformed multibyte chars to be recognized and
reported correctly.  The attached patch reserves bit 8 in the elf
hwcaps vector for the enhanced version of ETF3. The bit corresponds to
the stfle bits 22 and 30 and will only be set if both of the stfle
bits are set.

7e9b580e5f [S390] Ensure that ipl panic notifier is called late.
The s390 ipl panic notifier will stop the system or trigger a system dump.
This should be done as final action on the panic path. All other panic
notifiers should be executed before. Currently we use priority 0 for the ipl
notifier. In order to be called late, this patch changes the priority to
INT_MIN which is the lowest possible priority.

2ac3307f27 [S390] fix dfp elf hwcap/facility bit detection
The old dfp detection wanted to check bit 43 (dfp high performance), but due
to a wrong calculation always used to check bit 42. Additionally the
"userspace expectation" is, that the dfp capability bit is set is if facility
bit 42 (decimal floating point facility available) and bit 44 (perform floating
point operation facility avail).
The patch fixes the bit calculation and extends the check to work like:
  elf hw cap dfp bit = facility bits 42 (dfp) & 44 (pfpo) available

92e6ecf392 [S390] Fix hypervisor detection for KVM
Currently we use the cpuid (via STIDP instruction) to recognize LPAR,
z/VM and KVM.
The architecture states, that bit 0-7 of STIDP returns all zero, and
if STIDP is executed in a virtual machine, the VM operating system
will replace bits 0-7 with FF.

KVM should not use FE to distinguish z/VM from KVM for interested
guests. The proper way to detect the hypervisor is the STSI (Store
System Information) instruction, which return information about the
hypervisors via function code 3, selector1=2, selector2=2.

This patch changes the detection routine of Linux to use STSI instead
of STIDP. This detection is earlier than bootmem, we have to use a
static buffer. Since STSI expects a 4kb block (4kb aligned) this
patch also changes the init.data alignment for s390. As this section
will be freed during boot, this should be no problem.

Patch is tested with LPAR, z/VM, KVM on LPAR, and KVM under z/VM.

f9a2f797fc [S390] cputime: fix lowcore initialization on cpu hotplug
On (initial) cpu hotplug the lowcore values for user_timer and
system_timer don't get initialized like they would get on each
process schedule.
On initial start of secondary cpus this leads to the situation
where per thread user/system_timer values are larger than the
corresponding contents of the lowcore. When later calculating
time spent in user/system context the result can be negative.

So for cpu hotplug we should manually initialize lowcore values.

set to zero. The kernel detects the invalid user space pointer and
returns -EFAULT. To solve the problem, sys32_sigaltstack_wrapper()
instead of sys32_sigaltstack() has to be called. The wrapper function sets

f47d52afd3 [S390] remove code for oldselect system call
The system call isn't wired up on s390. Just delete the dead code.
Also we use the common code sys_ptrace system call, so the sys_ptrace
declaration is pointless is well.

1294156078 kprobes: add kprobe_insn_mutex and cleanup arch_remove_kprobe()
Add kprobe_insn_mutex for protecting kprobe_insn_pages hlist, and remove
kprobe_mutex from architecture dependent code.

This allows us to call arch_remove_kprobe() (and free_insn_slot) while
holding kprobe_mutex.

c742b31c03 [PATCH] fast vdso implementation for CLOCK_THREAD_CPUTIME_ID
The extract cpu time instruction (ectg) instruction allows the user
process to get the current thread cputime without calling into the
kernel. The code that uses the instruction needs to switch to the
access registers mode to get access to the per-cpu info page that
contains the two base values that are needed to calculate the current
cputime from the CPU timer with the ectg instruction.
