Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux

I pushed a version of the crypto iov_iter bug fix that
Al Viro wrote, but Linus put in a different copy of the
same fix into his tree.

I then reverted my commit in net-next, and that's why we have a merge
when pulling in Linus's tree.

cxl: Add tracepoints

This patch adds tracepoints throughout the cxl driver, which can provide
insight into:

- Context lifetimes
- Commands sent to the PSL and AFU and their completion status
- Segment and page table misses and their resolution
- PSL and AFU interrupts
- slbia calls from the powerpc copro_fault code

These tracepoints are mostly intended to aid in debugging (particularly
for new AFU designs), and may be useful standalone or in conjunction
with hardware traces collected by the PSL (read out via the trace
interface in debugfs) and AFUs.

"Here's a first pull request for powerpc updates for 3.18.

The bulk of the additions are for the "cxl" driver, for IBM's Coherent
Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI). Most of it's in drivers/misc,
which Greg & Arnd maintain, Greg said he was happy for us to take it
through our tree.

There's the usual minor cleanups and fixes, including a bit of noise
in drivers from some of those. A bunch of updates to our EEH code,
which has been getting more testing. Several nice speedups from
Anton, including 20% in clear_page().

And a bunch of updates for freescale from Scott"

cxl: Add base builtin support

This adds the base cxl support that cannot be built as a module. Specifically
it adds the cxl callbacks that are called from the core powerpc mm code which
must always exist irrespective of if the cxl module is loaded or not. This is
similar to how cell works with CONFIG_SPU_BASE.

This adds a cxl_slbia() call (similar to spu_flush_all_slbs()) which checks if
the cxl module is loaded and in use, returning immediately if it is not. If it
is in use it calls into the cxl SLB invalidation code.
