[ Upstream commit 844615dd0f2d95c018ec66b943e08af22b62aff3 ]

These functions are exported but their prototypes are not defined.
This patch adds the missing function prototypes to fix the following
compilation warnings:

arch/mips/kernel/vpe-mt.c:180:7: error: no previous prototype for 'vpe_alloc' [-Werror=missing-prototypes]
  180 | void *vpe_alloc(void)

      |     ^~~~~~~~~

[ Upstream commit 756276ce78d5624dc814f9d99f7d16c8fd51076e ]

On MIPS system, most of the syscall function name begin with prefix
sys_. Some syscalls are special such as clone/fork, function name of
these begin with __sys_. Since scratch registers need be saved in
stack when these system calls happens.

With ftrace system call method, system call functions are declared with
SYSCALL_DEFINEx, metadata of the system call symbol name begins with
sys_. Here mips specific function arch_syscall_match_sym_name is used to
compare function name between sys_call_table[] and metadata of syscall
symbol.

[ Upstream commit c44572e0cc13c9afff83fd333135a0aa9b27ba26 ]

Fix MAX_REG_OFFSET to point to the last register in 'pt_regs' and not to
the marker itself, which could allow regs_get_register() to return an
invalid offset.

commit 11ba1728be3edb6928791f4c622f154ebe228ae6 upstream.

On architectures with delay slot, architecture level instruction
pointer (or program counter) in pt_regs may differ from where
exception was triggered.

Introduce exception_ip hook to invoke architecture code and determine
actual instruction pointer to the exception.

[ Upstream commit da09935975c8f8c90d6f57be2422dee5557206cd ]

When MIPS_FP_SUPPORT is disabled, __sanitize_fcr31() is defined as
nothing, which triggers a gcc warning:

    In file included from kernel/sched/core.c:79:
    kernel/sched/core.c: In function 'context_switch':

Fix this by providing an empty body for __sanitize_fcr31() like one is
defined for __mips_mt_fpaff_switch_to().

    kernel/sched/core.c: In function 'context_switch':
    ./arch/mips/include/asm/switch_to.h:114:39: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an 'if' statement [-Wempty-body]
      114 |                 __sanitize_fcr31(next);                                 \

     5316 |         switch_to(prev, next, prev);

Fix this by providing an empty body for __sanitize_fcr31() like one is
defined for __mips_mt_fpaff_switch_to().

[ 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.
