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

Because when including asm/string.h from arch/s390/lib/string.c we

The fix is to declare them in this IN_ARCH_STRING_C case, but in

errors.

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.

Make page table walking on s390 more robust. The current code requires
that the pgd/pud/pmd/pte loop is only done for address ranges that are
below the end address of the last vma of the address space. But this
is not always true, e.g. the generic page table walker does not guarantee
this. Change TASK_SIZE/TASK_SIZE_OF to reflect the current size of the
address space. This makes the generic page table walker happy but it
breaks the upgrade of a 3 level page table to a 4 level page table.

2887fc5aa6 [S390] Dont check for pfn_valid() in uaccess_pt.c
pfn_valid() actually checks for a valid struct page and not for a
valid pfn. Using xip mappings w/o struct pages, this will result in
-EFAULT returned by the (page table walk) user copy functions,
even though there is valid memory. Those user copy functions don't
need a struct page, so this patch just removes the pfn_valid() check.

cf08734380 [S390] ftrace/mcount: fix kernel stack backchain
With packed stack the backchain is at a different location.
Just use __SF_BACKCHAIN as an offset to store the backchain.

f55d63854e [S390] topology: define SD_MC_INIT to fix performance regression
The default values for SD_MC_INIT cause an additional cpu usage of up
to 40% on some network benchmarks compared to the plain SD_CPU_INIT
values. So just define SD_MC_INIT to SD_CPU_INIT.
More tuning needs to be done.

4fa81ed277 [S390] __div64_31 broken for CONFIG_MARCH_G5
The implementation of __div64_31 for G5 machines is broken. The comments
in __div64_31 are correct, only the code does not do what the comments
say. The part "If the remainder has overflown subtract base and increase
the quotient" is only partially realized, the base is subtracted correctly
but the quotient is only increased if the dividend had the last bit set.
Using the correct instruction fixes the problem.

a760a6656e crypto: api - Fix module load deadlock with fallback algorithms
With the mandatory algorithm testing at registration, we have
now created a deadlock with algorithms requiring fallbacks.
This can happen if the module containing the algorithm requiring
fallback is loaded first, without the fallback module being loaded
first.  The system will then try to test the new algorithm, find
that it needs to load a fallback, and then try to load that.

As both algorithms share the same module alias, it can attempt
to load the original algorithm again and block indefinitely.

As algorithms requiring fallbacks are a special case, we can fix
this by giving them a different module alias than the rest.  Then
it's just a matter of using the right aliases according to what
algorithms we're trying to find.

23d75d9cad [S390] fix "mem=" handling in case of standby memory
Standby memory detected with the sclp interface gets always registered
with add_memory calls without considering the limitationt that the
"mem=" kernel paramater implies.
So fix this and only register standby memory that is below the specified
limit.
This fixes zfcpdump since it uses "mem=32M". In case there is appr.
2GB standby memory present all of usable memory would be used for the
struct pages needed for standby memory.
