treewide: replace obsolete _refok by __ref

2016-08-02T21:31:41+00:00

There was only one use of __initdata_refok and __exit_refok __init_refok was used 46 times against 82 for __ref. Those definitions are obsolete since commit 312b1485fb50 ("Introduce new section reference annotations tags: __ref, __refdata, __refconst") This patch removes the following compatibility definitions and replaces them treewide. /* compatibility defines */ #define __init_refok __ref #define __initdata_refok __refdata #define __exit_refok __ref I can also provide separate patches if necessary. (One patch per tree and check in 1 month or 2 to remove old definitions) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: coding-style fixes] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1466796271-3043-1-git-send-email-fabf@skynet.be Signed-off-by: Fabian Frederick Cc: Ingo Molnar Cc: Sam Ravnborg Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

x86/mm: Remove kernel_unmap_pages_in_pgd() and efi_cleanup_page_tables()

2016-07-15T08:26:26+00:00

kernel_unmap_pages_in_pgd() is dangerous: if a PGD entry in init_mm.pgd were to be cleared, callers would need to ensure that the pgd entry hadn't been propagated to any other pgd. Its only caller was efi_cleanup_page_tables(), and that, in turn, was unused, so just delete both functions. This leaves a couple of other helpers unused, so delete them, too.

x86/platform: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.h

2016-07-14T13:06:59+00:00

Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each obj-y/bool instance for the presence of either and replace as needed. One module.h was converted to moduleparam.h since the file had multiple module_param() in it, and another file had an instance of MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE deleted, since that is a no-op when builtin. Finally, the 32 bit build coverage of olpc_ofw revealed a couple implicit includes, which were pretty self evident to fix based on what gcc was complaining about.

x86/efi: Remove the unused efi_get_time() function

2016-06-27T11:06:58+00:00

Nothing calls the efi_get_time() function on x86, but it does suffer from the 32-bit time_t overflow in 2038. This removes the function, we can always put it back in case we need it later.

x86/efi: Update efi_thunk() to use the the arch_efi_call_virt*() macros

2016-06-27T11:06:57+00:00

Currently, the efi_thunk macro has some semi-duplicated code in it that can be replaced with the arch_efi_call_virt_setup/teardown macros. This commit simply replaces the duplicated code with those macros.

x86/efi: get rid of superfluous __GFP_REPEAT

2016-06-25T00:23:52+00:00

__GFP_REPEAT has a rather weak semantic but since it has been introduced around 2.6.12 it has been ignored for low order allocations. efi_alloc_page_tables uses __GFP_REPEAT but it allocates an order-0 page. This means that this flag has never been actually useful here because it has always been used only for PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY requests.

char/genrtc: x86: remove remnants of asm/rtc.h

2016-06-03T22:20:07+00:00

Commit 3195ef59cb42 ("x86: Do full rtc synchronization with ntp") had the side-effect of unconditionally enabling the RTC_LIB symbol on x86, which in turn disables the selection of the CONFIG_RTC and CONFIG_GEN_RTC drivers that contain a two older implementations of the CONFIG_RTC_DRV_CMOS driver. This removes x86 from the list for genrtc, and changes all references to the asm/rtc.h header to instead point to the interfaces from linux/mc146818rtc.h.
