<title>c6x: move generic-y of exported headers to uapi/asm/Kbuild</title>

<id>urn:sha1:97b81556f656594b343d516158ea305d4e0dcae5</id>
<content type='text'>
Since commit fcc8487d477a ("uapi: export all headers under uapi
directories"), all (and only) headers under uapi directories are
exported, but asm-generic wrappers are still exceptions.

To complete de-coupling the uapi from kernel headers, move generic-y
of exported headers to uapi/asm/Kbuild.

With this change, "make headers_install" will just need to parse
uapi/asm/Kbuild to build up exported headers.

Also, move "generic-y += kprobes.h" up in order to keep the entries
sorted.

Pull dma-mapping infrastructure from Christoph Hellwig:
 "This is the first pull request for the new dma-mapping subsystem

  In this new subsystem we'll try to properly maintain all the generic
  code related to dma-mapping, and will further consolidate arch code
  into common helpers.

  This pull request contains:

   - removal of the DMA_ERROR_CODE macro, replacing it with calls to
     -&gt;mapping_error so that the dma_map_ops instances are more self
     contained and can be shared across architectures (me)

   - removal of the -&gt;set_dma_mask method, which duplicates the
     -&gt;dma_capable one in terms of functionality, but requires more
     duplicate code.

   - various updates for the coherent dma pool and related arm code
     (Vladimir)

   - various smaller cleanups (me)"

<content type='text'>
The only user of thread_saved_pc() in non-arch-specific code was removed
in commit 8243d5597793 ("sched/core: Remove pointless printout in
sched_show_task()").  Remove the implementations as well.

Some architectures use thread_saved_pc() in their arch-specific code.
Leave their thread_saved_pc() intact.

By moving the kernel side __SI_* defintions right next to the userspace
ones we can kill the non-uapi versions of &lt;asm/siginfo.h&gt; include
include/asm-generic/siginfo.h and untangle the unholy mess of includes.

<title>uapi: export all headers under uapi directories</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fcc8487d477a3452a1d0ccbdd4c5e0e1e3cb8bed</id>
<content type='text'>
Regularly, when a new header is created in include/uapi/, the developer
forgets to add it in the corresponding Kbuild file. This error is usually
detected after the release is out.

In fact, all headers under uapi directories should be exported, thus it's
useless to have an exhaustive list.

After this patch, the following files, which were not exported, are now
exported (with make headers_install_all):
asm-arc/kvm_para.h
asm-arc/ucontext.h
asm-blackfin/shmparam.h
asm-blackfin/ucontext.h
asm-c6x/shmparam.h

Note that I have removed from this list the files which are generated in every
exported directories (like .install or .install.cmd).

Thanks to Julien Floret &lt;julien.floret@6wind.com&gt; for the tip to get all
subdirs with a pure makefile command.

For the record, note that exported files for asm directories are a mix of
files listed by:
 - include/uapi/asm-generic/Kbuild.asm;
 - arch/&lt;arch&gt;/include/uapi/asm/Kbuild;
 - arch/&lt;arch&gt;/include/asm/Kbuild.

  Dealing with the nocache/writethrough mess is for the next cycle;
  fortunately, that's x86-only. Same for cleanups in iov_iter.c (I am
  sold on access_ok() in there, BTW; just not in this pile), same for
