Since commit 1f65f947a6a8 ("checkpatch: add checks for question mark and
colon spacing") back in 2008, checkpatch has reported false positive for
asm volatile uses of "::" checkpatch thinks colons should always have
spaces around it.
Add an exception for colons with colons on either side for this valid asm
volatile (and c++) use.

If a patch touches multiple files, the --fix and --fix-inplace option
doesn't keep the proper line count and makes the new patch file not able
to be applied via bad offset line numbers when lines are added or deleted
by the --fix option.
Dunno how that extra backslash snuck in there.

ENOSYS means that a nonexistent system call was called. We have a
bad habit of using it for things like invalid operations on
otherwise valid syscalls. We should avoid this in new code.
Pervasive incorrect usage of ENOSYS came up at the kernel summit ABI
review discussion. Let's see if checkpatch can help.
I'll submit a separate patch for include/uapi/asm-generic/errno.h.

Code such as:
x = timercmp(&now, &end, <);
Will currently trigger a checkpatch error. e.g.
ERROR: spaces required around that '<'
This is because the "Ignore operators passed as parameters" check looks
only for a comma following the operator. Improve the check by also
looking for a close parenthesis.

__ex_table is a simple table section where each entry is a pair of
addresses - the first address is an address which can fault in kernel
space, and the second address points to where the kernel should jump to
when handling that fault. This is how copy_from_user() does not crash the
kernel if userspace gives a borked pointer for example.
If one of these addresses point to a non-executable section, something is
seriously wrong since it either means the kernel will never fault from
there or it will not be able to jump to there. As both cases are serious
enough, we simply error out in these cases so the build fails and the
developper has to fix the issue.
In case the section is executable, but it isn't referenced in our list of
authorized sections to point to from __ex_table, we just dump a warning
giving more information about it. We do this in case the new section is
executable but isn't supposed to be executed by the kernel. This happened
with .altinstr_replacement, which is executable but is only used to copy
instructions from - we should never have our instruction pointer pointing
in .altinstr_replacement. Admitedly, a proper fix in that case would be to
just set .altinstr_replacement NX, but we need to warn about future cases
like this.

This shell script can be used to sanity check the __ex_table section on an
object file, making sure the relocations in there are pointing to valid
executable sections. If it finds some suspicious relocations, it'll use
addr2line to try and dump where this is coming from.
This works best with CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO.

When linking large kernels on ARM, the linker will insert veneers
(i.e., PLT like stubs) when function symbols are out of reach for
the ordinary relative branch/branch-and-link instructions.
However, due to the fact that the kallsyms region sits in .rodata,
which is between .text and .init.text, additional veneers may be
emitted in the second pass due to the fact that the size of the
kallsyms region itself has pushed the .init.text section further
apart, requiring even more veneers.
So ignore the veneers when generating the symbol table. Veneers
have no corresponding source code, and they will not turn up in
backtraces anyway.
This patch also lightly refactors the symbol_valid() function
to use a local 'sym_name' rather than the obfuscated 'sym + 1'
and 'sym + offset'

Add MIPS Common Device Memory Map (CDMM) support in the form of a bus in
the standard Linux device model. Each device attached via CDMM is
discoverable via an 8-bit type identifier and may contain a number of
blocks of memory mapped registers in the CDMM region. IRQs are expected
to be handled separately.
Due to the per-cpu (per-VPE for MT cores) nature of the CDMM devices,
all the driver callbacks take place from workqueues which are run on the
right CPU for the device in question, so that the driver doesn't need to
be as concerned about which CPU it is running on. Callbacks also exist
for when CPUs are taken offline, so that any per-CPU resources used by
the driver can be disabled so they don't get forcefully migrated. CDMM
devices are created as children of the CPU device they are attached to.
Any existing CDMM configuration by the bootloader will be inherited,
however platforms wishing to enable CDMM should implement the weak
mips_cdmm_phys_base() function (see asm/cdmm.h) so that the bus driver
knows where it should put the CDMM region in the physical address space
if the bootloader hasn't already enabled it.
A mips_cdmm_early_probe() function is also provided to allow early boot
or particularly low level code to set up the CDMM region and probe for a
specific device type, for example early console or KGDB IO drivers for
the EJTAG Fast Debug Channel (FDC) CDMM device.

"scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh && make oldconfig" works well
enough for merging local config fragments, but Kbuild currently has
the entry points only for "kvmconfig" and "tinyconfig".
This commit provides the generic target for mergeconfig, so we can
manage our own config fragments easily:
put "foo.config" in arch/$(SRCARCH)/configs/ or kernel/configs/,
and then run "make foo.config".
Now "make kvmconfig" is just a shorthand of "make kvm_guest.config".
Likewise, "make tinyconfig" is equivalent to
"make allnoconfig tiny.config".

We can fix this issue by moving the error check to the shell script.

The script now supports to check a specified commit or a specified range
of commits (i.e., commit1..commit2). Developers and maintainers are
encouraged to use this functionality before sending or merging patches
to avoid potential bugs and to keep the code, documentation, etc. clean.
This patch adds the following options to the script:
-c COMMIT, --commit=COMMIT
Check if the specified commit (hash) introduces
undefined Kconfig symbols.
-d DIFF, --diff=DIFF
Diff undefined symbols between two commits. The input
format bases on Git log's 'commmit1..commit2'.
--force Reset current Git tree even when it's dirty.
Note that the first two options require to 'git reset --hard' the user's
Git tree. This hard reset is necessary to keep the script fast, but it
can lead to the loss of uncommitted data. Hence, the script aborts in
case it is executed in a dirty tree. It won't abort if '--force' is
passed.
If neither -c nor -d is specified, the script defaults to check the
entire local tree (i.e., the previous behavior).
