Merge tag 'mips_fixes_5.0_3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mips/linux
Pull MIPS fixes from Paul Burton:
"A batch of MIPS fixes for 5.0, nothing too scary.
- A workaround for a Loongson 3 CPU bug is the biggest change, but
still fairly straightforward. It adds extra memory barriers (sync
instructions) around atomics to avoid a CPU bug that can break
atomicity.
- Loongson64 also sees a fix for powering off some systems which
would incorrectly reboot rather than waiting for the power down
sequence to complete.
- We have DT fixes for the Ingenic JZ4740 SoC & the JZ4780-based Ci20
board, and a DT warning fix for the Nexsys4/MIPSfpga board.
- The Cavium Octeon platform sees a further fix to the behaviour of
the pcie_disable command line argument that was introduced in v3.3.
- The VDSO, introduced in v4.4, sees build fixes for configurations
of GCC that were built using the --with-fp-32= flag to specify a
default 32-bit floating point ABI.
- get_frame_info() sees a fix for configurations with
CONFIG_KALLSYMS=n, for which it previously always returned an
error.
- If the MIPS Coherence Manager (CM) reports an error then we'll now
clear that error correctly so that the GCR_ERROR_CAUSE register
will be updated with information about any future errors"
