Replace all the occurrences of FIELD_SIZEOF() with sizeof_field() except
at places where these are defined. Later patches will remove the unused
definition of FIELD_SIZEOF().

This patch is generated using following script:

EXCLUDE_FILES="include/linux/stddef.h|include/linux/kernel.h"

git grep -l -e "\bFIELD_SIZEOF\b" | while read file;
do

	if [[ "$file" =~ $EXCLUDE_FILES ]]; then
		continue
	fi
	sed -i  -e 's/\bFIELD_SIZEOF\b/sizeof_field/g' $file;
done

Pull more powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "A few commits splitting the KASAN instrumented bitops header in three,
  to match the split of the asm-generic bitops headers.

  This is needed on powerpc because we use the generic bitops for the
  non-atomic case only, whereas the existing KASAN instrumented bitops
  assume all the underlying operations are provided by the arch as
  arch_foo() versions.

  Thanks to: Daniel Axtens &amp; Christophe Leroy"

Pull powerpc fixes from Michael Ellerman:
 "One fix for a regression introduced by our recent rework of cache
  flushing on memory hotunplug.

  Like several other arches, our VDSO clock_getres() needed a fix to
  match the semantics of posix_get_hrtimer_res().

  A fix for a boot crash on Power9 LPARs using PCI LSI interrupts.

  A commit disabling use of the trace_imc PMU (not the core PMU) on
  Power9 systems, because it can lead to checkstops, until a workaround
  is developed.

  A handful of other minor fixes.

<title>powerpc/perf: Disable trace_imc pmu</title>

<content type='text'>
When a root user or a user with CAP_SYS_ADMIN privilege uses any
trace_imc performance monitoring unit events, to monitor application
or KVM threads, it may result in a checkstop (System crash).

The cause is frequent switching of the "trace/accumulation" mode of
the In-Memory Collection hardware (LDBAR).

This patch disables the trace_imc PMU unit entirely to avoid
triggering the checkstop. A future patch will reenable it at a later
stage once a workaround has been developed.

<content type='text'>
export_imc_mode_and_cmd() function which creates the debugfs interface
for imc-mode and imc-command, is invoked when each nest pmu units is
registered.

When the first nest pmu unit is registered, export_imc_mode_and_cmd()
creates 'imc' directory under `/debug/powerpc/`. In the subsequent
invocations debugfs_create_dir() function returns, since the directory
already exists.

The recent commit &lt;c33d442328f55&gt; (debugfs: make error message a bit
more verbose), throws a warning if we try to invoke
`debugfs_create_dir()` with an already existing directory name.

Address this warning by making the debugfs directory registration in
the opal_imc_counters_probe() function, i.e invoke
export_imc_mode_and_cmd() function from the probe function.

Commit 01c9348c7620ec65

  powerpc: Use hardware RNG for arch_get_random_seed_* not arch_get_random_*

updated arch_get_random_[int|long]() to be NOPs, and moved the hardware
RNG backing to arch_get_random_seed_[int|long]() instead. However, it
failed to take into account that arch_get_random_int() was implemented
in terms of arch_get_random_long(), and so we ended up with a version
of the former that is essentially a NOP as well.

Fix this by calling arch_get_random_seed_long() from
arch_get_random_seed_int() instead.
