This reverts commit 4dd1837d75.
Moving the exports for assembly code into the assembly files breaks
KSYM trimming, but also breaks modversions.
While fixing the KSYM trimming is trivial, fixing modversions brings
us to a technically worse position that we had prior to the above
change:
- We end up with the prototype definitions divorsed from everything
else, which means that adding or removing assembly level ksyms
become more fragile:
* if adding a new assembly ksyms export, a missed prototype in
asm-prototypes.h results in a successful build if no module in
the selected configuration makes use of the symbol.
* when removing a ksyms export, asm-prototypes.h will get forgotten,
with armksyms.c, you'll get a build error if you forget to touch
the file.
- We end up with the same amount of include files and prototypes,
they're just in a header file instead of a .c file with their
exports.
As for lines of code, we don't get much of a size reduction:

ARMv6 CPUs do not have virtualisation extensions, but hyp-stub.S is
still included into the image to keep it generic. In order to use ARMv7
instructions during HYP initialisation, add -march=armv7-a flag to
hyp-stub's build.
On an ARMv6 CPU, __hyp_stub_install returns as soon as it detects that
the mode isn't HYP, so we will never reach those instructions.

The PJ4 inline asm sequence to write to cp15 cannot be built in Thumb-2
mode, due to the way it performs arithmetic on the program counter, so it
is built in ARM mode instead. However, building C files in ARM mode under
CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL is problematic, since the instrumentation performed
by subsystems like ftrace does not expect having to deal with interworking
branches.
Since the sequence in question is simply a poor man's ISB instruction,
let's use a straight 'isb' instead when building in Thumb2 mode. Thumb2
implies V7, so 'isb' should always be supported in that case.

Now that the common PSCI client code has been factored out to
drivers/firmware, and made safe for 32-bit use, move the 32-bit ARM code
over to it. This results in a moderate reduction of duplicated lines,
and will prevent further duplication as the PSCI client code is updated
for PSCI 1.0 and beyond.
The two legacy platform users of the PSCI invocation code are updated to
account for interface changes. In both cases the power state parameter
(which is constant) is now generated using macros, so that the
pack/unpack logic can be killed in preparation for PSCI 1.0 power state

Loading modules far away from the kernel in memory is problematic
because the 'bl' instruction only has limited reach, and modules are not
built with PLTs. Instead of using the -mlong-calls option (which affects
all compiler emitted bl instructions, but not the ones in assembler),
this patch allocates some additional space at module load time, and
populates it with PLT like veneers when encountering relocations that
are out of range.
This should work with all relocations against symbols exported by the
kernel, including those resulting from GCC generated implicit function
calls for ftrace etc.
The module memory size increases by about 5% on average, regardless of
whether any PLT entries were actually needed. However, due to the page
based rounding that occurs when allocating module memory, the average
memory footprint increase is negligible.

This patch introduce kprobeopt for ARM 32.
Limitations:
- Currently only kernel compiled with ARM ISA is supported.
- Offset between probe point and optinsn slot must not larger than
32MiB. Masami Hiramatsu suggests replacing 2 words, it will make
things complex. Futher patch can make such optimization.
Kprobe opt on ARM is relatively simpler than kprobe opt on x86 because
ARM instruction is always 4 bytes aligned and 4 bytes long. This patch
replace probed instruction by a 'b', branch to trampoline code and then
calls optimized_callback(). optimized_callback() calls opt_pre_handler()
to execute kprobe handler. It also emulate/simulate replaced instruction.
When unregistering kprobe, the deferred manner of unoptimizer may leave
branch instruction before optimizer is called. Different from x86_64,
which only copy the probed insn after optprobe_template_end and
reexecute them, this patch call singlestep to emulate/simulate the insn
directly. Futher patch can optimize this behavior.

Enable hibernation for ARM architectures and provide ARM
architecture specific calls used during hibernation.
The swsusp hibernation framework depends on the
platform first having functional suspend/resume.
Then, in order to enable hibernation on a given platform, a
platform_hibernation_ops structure may need to be registered with
the system in order to save/restore any SoC-specific / cpu specific
state needing (re)init over a suspend-to-disk/resume-from-disk cycle.
For example:
- "secure" SoCs that have different sets of control registers
and/or different CR reg access patterns.
- SoCs with L2 caches as the activation sequence there is
SoC-dependent; a full off-on cycle for L2 is not done
by the hibernation support code.
- SoCs requiring steps on wakeup _before_ the "generic" parts
done by cpu_suspend / cpu_resume can work correctly.
- SoCs having persistent state which is maintained during suspend
and resume, but will be lost during the power off cycle after
suspend-to-disk.
This is a rebase/rework of Frank Hofmann's v5 hibernation patchset.

The parts which touch other areas (ARM/XEN) have been coordinated with
the relevant maintainers. Though this results in an handful of
trivial to solve merge conflicts, which we preferred over nasty cross
tree merge dependencies.
The patches which have been committed in the last few days are bug
fixes plus the posix timer lot. The latter was in akpms queue and
next for quite some time; they just got forgotten and Frederic
collected them last minute."
* 'timers-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (59 commits)
hrtimer: Remove unused variable
hrtimers: Move SMP function call to thread context
clocksource: Reselect clocksource when watchdog validated high-res capability
posix-cpu-timers: don't account cpu timer after stopped thread runtime accounting
posix_timers: fix racy timer delta caching on task exit
posix-timers: correctly get dying task time sample in posix_cpu_timer_schedule()
selftests: add basic posix timers selftests
posix_cpu_timers: consolidate expired timers check
posix_cpu_timers: consolidate timer list cleanups
posix_cpu_timer: consolidate expiry time type
tick: Sanitize broadcast control logic
tick: Prevent uncontrolled switch to oneshot mode
tick: Make oneshot broadcast robust vs. CPU offlining
x86: xen: Sync the CMOS RTC as well as the Xen wallclock
x86: xen: Sync the wallclock when the system time is set
timekeeping: Indicate that clock was set in the pvclock gtod notifier
timekeeping: Pass flags instead of multiple bools to timekeeping_update()
xen: Remove clock_was_set() call in the resume path
hrtimers: Support resuming with two or more CPUs online (but stopped)
timer: Fix jiffies wrap behavior of round_jiffies_common()
...
Nothing about the sched_clock implementation in the ARM port is
specific to the architecture. Generalize the code so that other
architectures can use it by selecting GENERIC_SCHED_CLOCK.

Without an MMU we don't need to do any TLB maintenance. Until the addition
of 93dc68876b (ARM: 7684/1: errata: Workaround for Cortex-A15 erratum 798181
(TLBI/DSB operations)) building the tlb maintenance ops in smp_tlb.c worked,
though none of the contents were used.
Since that commit, however, SMP NOMMU has not been able to build. This patch
restores that ability by making the building of smp_tlb.c dependent on MMU.

Pull psci_smp_ops support from Stefano Stabellini:
It contains the generic PSCI patch and the smp_init patch that we
discussed so much about. I think it would be helpful for other
people if you could create a stable branch with these patches so
that SoC devs can base their work on it.
Rename virt_smp_ops to psci_smp_ops and move them to arch/arm/kernel/psci_smp.c.
Remove mach-virt/platsmp.c, now unused.
Compile psci_smp if CONFIG_ARM_PSCI and CONFIG_SMP.
Add a cpu_die smp_op based on psci_ops.cpu_off.
Initialize PSCI before setting smp_ops in setup_arch.
If PSCI is available on the platform, prefer psci_smp_ops over the
platform smp_ops.
