<title>mn10300: Use early_param() to parse "mem=" parameter</title>

This fixes the problem that "init=" options may not be passed to kernel
correctly.

parse_mem_cmdline() of mn10300 arch gets rid of "mem=" string from
redboot_command_line. Then init_setup() parses the "init=" options from
static_command_line, which is a copy of redboot_command_line, and keeps
the pointer to the init options in execute_command variable.

Since the commit 026cee0 upstream (params: &lt;level&gt;_initcall-like kernel
parameters), static_command_line becomes overwritten by saved_command_line at
do_initcall_level(). Notice that saved_command_line is a command line
which includes "mem=" string.

As a result, execute_command may point to weird string by the length of
"mem=" parameter.
I noticed this problem when using the command line like this:

    mem=128M console=ttyS0,115200 init=/bin/sh

Here is the processing flow of command line parameters.
    start_kernel()
      setup_arch(&amp;command_line)
         parse_mem_cmdline(cmdline_p)
           * strcpy(boot_command_line, redboot_command_line);
           * Remove "mem=xxx" from redboot_command_line.
           * *cmdline_p = redboot_command_line;
      setup_command_line(command_line) &lt;-- command_line is redboot_command_line
        * strcpy(saved_command_line, boot_command_line)
        * strcpy(static_command_line, command_line)
      parse_early_param()
        strlcpy(tmp_cmdline, boot_command_line, COMMAND_LINE_SIZE);
        parse_early_options(tmp_cmdline);
          parse_args("early options", cmdline, NULL, 0, 0, 0, do_early_param);
      parse_args("Booting ..", static_command_line, ...);
        init_setup() &lt;-- save the pointer in execute_command
      rest_init()
        kernel_thread(kernel_init, NULL, CLONE_FS | CLONE_SIGHAND);

At this point, execute_command points to "/bin/sh" string.

    kernel_init()
      kernel_init_freeable()
        do_basic_setup()
          do_initcalls()
            do_initcall_level()
              (*) strcpy(static_command_line, saved_command_line);

Here, execute_command gets to point to "200" string !!

We need to pick up the definition of raw_smp_processor_id() from
asm/smp.h.  For the !SMP case, we need to supply a definition of
raw_smp_processor_id().

Because of the include dependencies we cannot use smp_call_func_t in
asm/smp.h, but we do need linux/thread_info.h

Enable IRQs when calling schedule() for TIF_NEED_RESCHED and
do_notify_resume().  If interrupts are enabled during do_notify_resume(), a
warning can be seen (see lower down).

Whilst we're at it, resume_userspace can be made local to entry.S as it is not
called outside of there and it can be merged with the part of work_resched that
occurs after schedule() is called.

ret_from_kernel_thread needs to set A2 to the thread_info pointer before
jumping to syscall_exit.

Without this, we never correctly start userspace.

This was caused by the rejuggling of the fork/exec paths in commit

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "Highlights (1721 non-merge commits, this has to be a record of some
  sort):

   1) Add 'random' mode to team driver, from Jiri Pirko and Eric
      Dumazet.

   2) Make it so that any driver that supports configuration of multiple
      MAC addresses can provide the forwarding database add and del
      calls by providing a default implementation and hooking that up if
      the driver doesn't have an explicit set of handlers.  From Vlad
      Yasevich.

   3) Support GSO segmentation over tunnels and other encapsulating
      devices such as VXLAN, from Pravin B Shelar.

   4) Support L2 GRE tunnels in the flow dissector, from Michael Dalton.

   5) Implement Tail Loss Probe (TLP) detection in TCP, from Nandita
      Dukkipati.

   6) In the PHY layer, allow supporting wake-on-lan in situations where
      the PHY registers have to be written for it to be configured.

      Use it to support wake-on-lan in mv643xx_eth.

      From Michael Stapelberg.

   7) Significantly improve firewire IPV6 support, from YOSHIFUJI
      Hideaki.

   8) Allow multiple packets to be sent in a single transmission using
      network coding in batman-adv, from Martin Hundebøll.

   9) Add support for T5 cxgb4 chips, from Santosh Rastapur.

  10) Generalize the VXLAN forwarding tables so that there is more
      flexibility in configurating various aspects of the endpoints.
      From David Stevens.

  11) Support RSS and TSO in hardware over GRE tunnels in bxn2x driver,
      from Dmitry Kravkov.

  12) Zero copy support in nfnelink_queue, from Eric Dumazet and Pablo
      Neira Ayuso.

  13) Start adding networking selftests.

  14) In situations of overload on the same AF_PACKET fanout socket, or
      per-cpu packet receive queue, minimize drop by distributing the
      load to other cpus/fanouts.  From Willem de Bruijn and Eric
      Dumazet.

  15) Add support for new payload offset BPF instruction, from Daniel
      Borkmann.

  16) Convert several drivers over to mdoule_platform_driver(), from
      Sachin Kamat.

  17) Provide a minimal BPF JIT image disassembler userspace tool, from
      Daniel Borkmann.

  18) Rewrite F-RTO implementation in TCP to match the final
      specification of it in RFC4138 and RFC5682.  From Yuchung Cheng.

  19) Provide netlink socket diag of netlink sockets ("Yo dawg, I hear
      you like netlink, so I implemented netlink dumping of netlink
      sockets.") From Andrey Vagin.

  20) Remove ugly passing of rtnetlink attributes into rtnl_doit
      functions, from Thomas Graf.

  21) Allow userspace to be able to see if a configuration change occurs
      in the middle of an address or device list dump, from Nicolas
      Dichtel.

  22) Support RFC3168 ECN protection for ipv6 fragments, from Hannes
      Frederic Sowa.

  23) Increase accuracy of packet length used by packet scheduler, from
      Jason Wang.

  24) Beginning set of changes to make ipv4/ipv6 fragment handling more
      scalable and less susceptible to overload and locking contention,
      from Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

  25) Get rid of using non-type-safe NLMSG_* macros and use nlmsg_*()

<title>dump_stack: unify debug information printed by show_regs()</title>

show_regs() is inherently arch-dependent but it does make sense to print
generic debug information and some archs already do albeit in slightly
different forms.  This patch introduces a generic function to print debug
information from show_regs() so that different archs print out the same
information and it's much easier to modify what's printed.

show_regs_print_info() prints out the same debug info as dump_stack()
does plus task and thread_info pointers.

* Archs which didn't print debug info now do.

  alpha, arc, blackfin, c6x, cris, frv, h8300, hexagon, ia64, m32r,
  metag, microblaze, mn10300, openrisc, parisc, score, sh64, sparc,
  um, xtensa

* Already prints debug info.  Replaced with show_regs_print_info().
  The printed information is superset of what used to be there.

  arm, arm64, avr32, mips, powerpc, sh32, tile, unicore32, x86

* s390 is special in that it used to print arch-specific information
  along with generic debug info.  Heiko and Martin think that the
  arch-specific extra isn't worth keeping s390 specfic implementation.
  Converted to use the generic version.

Note that now all archs print the debug info before actual register
dumps.

An example BUG() dump follows.
