Merge branch 'parisc-4.20-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/deller/parisc-linux

Pull parisc updates from Helge Deller:
"Lots of small fixes and enhancements, most noteably:

- Many TLB and cache flush optimizations (Dave)

- Fixed HPMC/crash handler on 64-bit kernel (Dave and myself)

- Added alternative infrastructre. The kernel now live-patches itself
for various situations, e.g. replace SMP code when running on one
CPU only or drop cache flushes when system has no cache installed.

- vmlinuz now contains a full copy of the compressed vmlinux file.
This simplifies debugging the currently booted kernel.

- Unused driver removal (Christoph)

- Reduced warnings of Dino PCI bridge when running in qemu

- Removed gcc version check (Masahiro)"

parisc: Include compressed vmlinux file in vmlinuz boot kernel

Change the parisc vmlinuz boot code to include and process the real
compressed vmlinux.gz ELF file instead of a compressed memory dump.
This brings parisc in sync on how it's done on x86_64.

The benefit of this change is that, e.g. for debugging purposes, one can
then extract the vmlinux file out of the vmlinuz which was booted which
wasn't possible before. This can be archieved with the existing
scripts/extract-vmlinux script, which just needs a small tweak to prefer
to extract a compressed file before trying the existing given binary.

The downside of this approach is that due to the extra round of
decompression/ELF processing we need more physical memory installed to
be able to boot a kernel.

Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pmladek/printk

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:

- Add a console_msg_format command line option:

The value "default" keeps the old "[time stamp] text\n" format. The
value "syslog" allows to see the syslog-like "<log
level>[timestamp] text" format.

This feature was requested by people doing regression tests, for
example, 0day robot. They want to have both filtered and full logs
at hands.

- Reduce the risk of softlockup:

Pass the console owner in a busy loop.

This is a new approach to the old problem. It was first proposed by
Steven Rostedt on Kernel Summit 2017. It marks a context in which
the console_lock owner calls console drivers and could not sleep.
On the other side, printk() callers could detect this state and use
a busy wait instead of a simple console_trylock(). Finally, the
console_lock owner checks if there is a busy waiter at the end of
the special context and eventually passes the console_lock to the
waiter.

The hand-off works surprisingly well and helps in many situations.
Well, there is still a possibility of the softlockup, for example,
when the flood of messages stops and the last owner still has too
much to flush.

There is increasing number of people having problems with
printk-related softlockups. We might eventually need to get better
solution. Anyway, this looks like a good start and promising
direction.

- Do not allow to schedule in console_unlock() called from printk():

This reverts an older controversial commit. The reschedule helped
to avoid softlockups. But it also slowed down the console output.
This patch is obsoleted by the new console waiter logic described
above. In fact, the reschedule made the hand-off less effective.

- Deprecate "%pf" and "%pF" format specifier:

It was needed on ia64, ppc64 and parisc64 to dereference function
descriptors and show the real function address. It is done
transparently by "%ps" and "pS" format specifier now.

Sergey Senozhatsky found that all the function descriptors were in
a special elf section and could be easily detected.

- Remove printk_symbol() API:

It has been obsoleted by "%pS" format specifier, and this change
helped to remove few continuous lines and a less intuitive old API.

- Remove redundant memsets:

Sergey removed unnecessary memset when processing printk.devkmsg
command line option.
