Mike Rapoport a5159e84da memblock: replace __alloc_bootmem_nopanic with memblock_alloc_from_nopanic
When __alloc_bootmem_nopanic() is used with explicit lower limit for the
allocation it attempts to allocate memory at or above that limit and falls
back to allocation with no limit set.

The memblock_alloc_from_nopanic() does exactly the same thing and can be
used as a replacement for __alloc_bootmem_nopanic() is such cases.

Masahiro Yamada 550116d21a scripts/spelling.txt: add "aligment" pattern and fix typo instances
Fix typos and add the following to the scripts/spelling.txt:

  aligment||alignment

I did not touch the "N_BYTE_ALIGMENT" macro in
drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/wifi.h to avoid unpredictable
impact.

I fixed "_aligment_handler" in arch/openrisc/kernel/entry.S because
it is surrounded by #if 0 ... #endif.  It is surely safe and I
confirmed "_alignment_handler" is correct.

I also fixed the "controler" I found in the same hunk in
arch/openrisc/kernel/head.S.

Vineet Gupta 6716dbbdef ARC: dw2 unwind: switch to .eh_frame based unwinding
So finally after almost 8 years of dealing with .debug_frame, we are
finally switching to .eh_frame. The reason being stripped kernel
binaries had non-functional unwinder as .debug_frame was gone.
Also, in general .eh_frame seems more common way of doing unwinding.

This also folds a revert of f52e126cc7 ("ARC: unwind: ensure that
.debug_frame is generated (vs. .eh_frame)") to ensure that we start
getting .eh_frame

Vineet Gupta 2d64affc92 Revert "ARC: dw2 unwind: Ignore CIE version !=1 gracefully instead of bailing"
Blingly ignoring CIE.version != 1 was a bad idea.
It still leaves "desirability" when running perf with callgraphing where libgcc
symbols might show in hotspot.

More importantly, basic CIE.version == 3 support already exists in code:

|
|   retAddrReg = state.version <= 1 ? *ptr++ : get_uleb128(&ptr, end);
|

Next commit with simply add continue-not-bail for CIE.version != 1

This reverts commit 323f41f9e7.

Vineet Gupta 323f41f9e7 ARC: dw2 unwind: Ignore CIE version !=1 gracefully instead of bailing
ARC dwarf unwinder only supports CIE version == 1
The boot time dwarf sanitizer (part of binary lookup table constructor)
would simply bail if it saw CIE version == 3, rendering unwinder with a
NULL lookup table.

It seems libgcc linked with kernel does have such entries.

With fallback linear search removed, and a NULL binary lookup table,
unwinder fails to generate any stack trace.

So allow graceful ignoring of unsupported CIE entries.

This problem was initially seen in Alexey's setup (and not mine) as he
was using buildroot built toolchain (libgcc) which doesn't get built with
CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET="-gdwarf-2 which is my default

Vineet Gupta bc79c9a721 ARC: dw2 unwind: Reinstante unwinding out of modules
The fix which removed linear searching of dwarf (because binary lookup
data always exists) missed out on the fact that modules don't get the
binary lookup tables info. This caused unwinding out of modules to stop
working.

So add binary lookup header setup (equivalent of eh_frame_hdr setup) to
modules as well.

While at it, confine the header setup to within unwinder code,
reducing one API exposed out of unwinder code.

Rusty Russell 7523e4dc50 module: use a structure to encapsulate layout.
Makes it easier to handle init vs core cleanly, though the change is
fairly invasive across random architectures.

It simplifies the rbtree code immediately, however, while keeping the
core data together in the same cachline (now iff the rbtree code is
enabled).

Fixes STAR 9000953410: "perf callgraph profiling causing RCU stalls"

| INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU
| 1: (1 GPs behind) idle=609/140000000000002/0 softirq=2914/2915 fqs=603
| Task dump for CPU 1:

in-kernel dwarf unwinder has a fast binary lookup and a fallback linear
search (which iterates thru each of ~11K entries) thus takes 2 orders of
magnitude longer (~3 million cycles vs. 2000). Routines written in hand
assembler lack dwarf info (as we don't support assembler CFI pseudo-ops
yet) fail the unwinder binary lookup, hit linear search, failing
nevertheless in the end.

However the linear search is pointless as binary lookup tables are created
from it in first place. It is impossible to have binary lookup fail while
succeed the linear search. It is pure waste of cycles thus removed by
this patch.

This manifested as RCU stalls / NMI watchdog splat when running
hackbench under perf with callgraph profiling. The triggering condition
was perf counter overflowing in routine lacking dwarf info (like memset)
leading to patheic 3 million cycle unwinder slow path and by the time it
returned new interrupts were already pending (Timer, IPI) and taken
rightaway. The original memset didn't make forward progress, system kept
accruing more interrupts and more unwinder delayes in a vicious feedback
