[ Upstream commit b029628be267cba3c7684ec684749fe3e4372398 ]

Richard Henderson &lt;richard.henderson@linaro.org&gt; writes[1]:

&gt; There was a Spec benchmark (I forget which) which was memory bound and ran
&gt; twice as fast with 32-bit pointers.
&gt;
&gt; I copied the idea from DEC to the ELF abi, but never did all the other work
&gt; to allow the toolchain to take advantage.
&gt;
&gt; Amusingly, a later Spec changed the benchmark data sets to not fit into a
&gt; 32-bit address space, specifically because of this.
&gt;
&gt; I expect one could delete the ELF bit and personality and no one would
&gt; notice. Not even the 10 remaining Alpha users.

In [2] it was pointed out that parts of setarch weren't working
properly on alpha because it has it's own SET_PERSONALITY
implementation.  In the discussion that followed Richard Henderson
pointed out that the 32bit pointer support for alpha was never
completed.

Fix this by removing alpha's 32bit pointer support.

As a bit of paranoia refuse to execute any alpha binaries that have
the EF_ALPHA_32BIT flag set.  Just in case someone somewhere has
binaries that try to use alpha's 32bit pointer support.

[ Upstream commit e025ab842ec35225b1a8e163d1f311beb9e38ce9 ]

Most architectures (except arm64/x86/sparc) simply return 1 for
kern_addr_valid(), which is only used in read_kcore(), and it calls
copy_from_kernel_nofault() which could check whether the address is a
valid kernel address.  So as there is no need for kern_addr_valid(), let's
remove it.

commit 61235b24b9cb37c13fcad5b9596d59a1afdcec30 upstream

Everything is converted over to arch_cpu_finalize_init(). Remove the
check_bugs() leftovers including the empty stubs in asm-generic, alpha,
parisc, powerpc and xtensa.

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of TTY and Serial driver updates for 6.1-rc1.

  Lots of cleanups in here, no real new functionality this time around,
  with the diffstat being that we removed more lines than we added!

  Included in here are:

   - termios unification cleanups from Al Viro, it's nice to finally get
     this work done

   - tty serial transmit cleanups in various drivers in preparation for
     more cleanup and unification in future releases (that work was not
     ready for this release)

   - n_gsm fixes and updates

   - ktermios cleanups and code reductions

   - dt bindings json conversions and updates for new devices

   - some serial driver updates for new devices

   - lots of other tiny cleanups and janitorial stuff. Full details in
     the shortlog.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of TTY and Serial driver updates for 6.1-rc1.

  Lots of cleanups in here, no real new functionality this time around,
  with the diffstat being that we removed more lines than we added!

  Included in here are:

   - termios unification cleanups from Al Viro, it's nice to finally get
     this work done

   - tty serial transmit cleanups in various drivers in preparation for
     more cleanup and unification in future releases (that work was not
     ready for this release)

   - n_gsm fixes and updates

   - ktermios cleanups and code reductions

   - dt bindings json conversions and updates for new devices

   - some serial driver updates for new devices

   - lots of other tiny cleanups and janitorial stuff. Full details in
     the shortlog.

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  issues"

The previous patch introduced ioread64/iowrite64 declarations, but
this means we no longer get the io-64-nonatomic variant, and
run into a long error when someone actually wants to use these:

ERROR: modpost: "ioread64" [drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/enetc/fsl-enetc.ko] undefined!

Add the (hopefully) correct implementation for each machine type,
based on the 32-bit accessor. Since the 32-bit return type does
not work for ioread64(), change the internal implementation to use
the correct width consistently, but leave the external interface
to match the asm-generic/iomap.h header that uses 32-bit or 64-bit
return values.

In commit 19e8b701e258 ("a.out: Stop building a.out/osf1 support on
alpha and m68k") the last users of a.out were disabled.

As nothing has turned up to cause this change to be reverted, let's
remove the code implementing a.out support as well.

There may be userspace users of the uapi bits left so the uapi
headers have been left untouched.
