Merge arlied/drm-next into drm-misc-next

We need to pull 66660d4cf21b (drm: add connector info/property for
non-desktop displays [v2]) into drm-misc-next to continue the development
of the display rotation series.

Effectively this also pulls 4.15-r2 into drm-misc-next.

Pull the last batch of manual timer conversions from Kees Cook:

- final batch of "non trivial" timer conversions (multi-tree dependencies,
things Coccinelle couldn't handle, etc).

- treewide conversions via Coccinelle, in 4 steps:
- DEFINE_TIMER() functions converted to struct timer_list * argument
- init_timer() -> setup_timer()
- setup_timer() -> timer_setup()
- setup_timer() -> timer_setup() (with a single embedded structure)

- deprecated timer API removals (init_timer(), setup_*timer())

- finalization of new API (remove global casts)

vDSO for sparc

Following patch is based on work done by Nick Alcock on 64-bit vDSO for sparc
in Oracle linux. I have extended it to include support for 32-bit vDSO for sparc
on 64-bit kernel.

vDSO for sparc

Following patch is based on work done by Nick Alcock on 64-bit vDSO for sparc
in Oracle linux. I have extended it to include support for 32-bit vDSO for sparc
on 64-bit kernel.

vDSO for sparc is based on the X86 implementation. This patch
provides vDSO support for both 64-bit and 32-bit programs on 64-bit kernel.
vDSO will be disabled on 32-bit linux kernel on sparc.

*) vclock_gettime.c contains all the vdso functions. Since data page is mapped
before the vdso code page, the pointer to data page is got by subracting offset
from an address in the vdso code page. The return address stored in
%i7 is used for this purpose.
*) During compilation, both 32-bit and 64-bit vdso images are compiled and are
converted into raw bytes by vdso2c program to be ready for mapping into the
process. 32-bit images are compiled only if CONFIG_COMPAT is enabled. vdso2c
generates two files vdso-image-64.c and vdso-image-32.c which contains the
respective vDSO image in C structure.
*) During vdso initialization, required number of vdso pages are allocated and
raw bytes are copied into the pages.
*) During every exec, these pages are mapped into the process through
arch_setup_additional_pages and the location of mapping is passed on to the
process through aux vector AT_SYSINFO_EHDR which is used by glibc.
*) A new update_vsyscall routine for sparc is added to keep the data page in
vdso updated.
*) As vDSO cannot contain dynamically relocatable references, a new version of
cpu_relax is added for the use of vDSO.

This change also requires a putback to glibc to use vDSO. For testing,
programs planning to try vDSO can be compiled against the generated
vdso(64/32).so in the source.

Testing:

[root@localhost ~]# cat vdso_test.c
int main() {
struct timespec tv_start, tv_end;
struct timeval tv_tmp;
int i;
int count = 1 * 1000 * 10000;
long long diff;

clock_gettime(0, &tv_start);
for (i = 0; i < count; i++)
gettimeofday(&tv_tmp, NULL);
clock_gettime(0, &tv_end);
diff = (long long)(tv_end.tv_sec -
tv_start.tv_sec)*(1*1000*1000*1000);
diff += (tv_end.tv_nsec - tv_start.tv_nsec);
printf("Start sec: %d\n", tv_start.tv_sec);
printf("End sec : %d\n", tv_end.tv_sec);
printf("%d cycles in %lld ns = %f ns/cycle\n", count, diff,
(double)diff / (double)count);
return 0;

V1 to V2 Changes:
=================
Added hot patching code to switch the read stick instruction to read
tick instruction based on the hardware.

V2 to V3 Changes:
=================
Merged latest changes from sparc-next and moved the initialization
of clocksource_tick.archdata.vclock_mode to time_init_early. Disabled
queued spinlock and rwlock configuration when simulating 32-bit config
to compile 32-bit VDSO.

V3 to V4 Changes:
=================
Hardcoded the page size as 8192 in linker script for both 64-bit and
32-bit binaries. Removed unused variables in vdso2c.h. Added -mv8plus flag to
Makefile to prevent the generation of relocation entries for __lshrdi3 in 32-bit
vdso binary.
