mips: syscalls: switch to generic syscalltbl.sh

Many architectures duplicate similar shell scripts.

This commit converts mips to use scripts/syscalltbl.sh. This also
unifies syscall_table_32_o32.h and syscall_table_64_o32.h into
syscall_table_o32.h.

The offset parameters are unneeded here; __SYSCALL(nr, entry) is defined
as 'PTR entry', so the parameter 'nr' is not used in the first place.

With this commit, syscall tables and generated files are straight
mapped, which makes things easier to understand.

syscall_n32.tbl --> syscall_table_n32.h
syscall_n64.tbl --> syscall_table_n64.h
syscall_o32.tbl --> syscall_table_o32.h

Then, the abi parameters are also unneeded.

it for arm64 and MIPS. Add a new architecture specific asm/kvm_types.h
to control the existence and parameters of the struct. The new header
is needed to avoid a chicken-and-egg problem with asm/kvm_host.h as all
architectures define instances of the struct in their vCPU structs.

Add an asm-generic version of kvm_types.h to avoid having empty files on
PPC and s390 in the long term, and for arm64 and mips in the short term.

[2] Every architecture (except um) either has its own implementation
(arch/*/include/asm/*.h) or specifies it as generic-y in
arch/*/include/asm/Kbuild

This commit was generated by the following shell script.

----------------------------------->8-----------------------------------

arches=$(cd arch; ls -1 | sed -e '/Kconfig/d' -e '/um/d')

tmpfile=$(mktemp)

grep "^mandatory-y +=" include/asm-generic/Kbuild > $tmpfile

done
fi

done

sed -i '/^mandatory-y +=/d' include/asm-generic/Kbuild

LANG=C sort $tmpfile >> include/asm-generic/Kbuild

----------------------------------->8-----------------------------------

One obvious benefit is the diff stat:

25 files changed, 52 insertions(+), 557 deletions(-)

It is tedious to list generic-y for each arch that needs it.

So, mandatory-y works like a fallback default (by just wrapping
asm-generic one) when arch does not have a specific header
implementation.

See the following commits:

def3f7cefe4e81c296090e1722a76551142c227c
a1b39bae16a62ce4aae02d958224f19316d98b24

It is tedious to convert headers one by one, so I processed by a shell
script.

mips/mmiowb: Add unconditional mmiowb() to arch_spin_unlock()

The mmiowb() macro is horribly difficult to use and drivers will continue
to work most of the time if they omit a call when it is required.

Rather than rely on driver authors getting this right, push mmiowb() into
arch_spin_unlock() for mips. If this is deemed to be a performance issue,
a subsequent optimisation could make use of ARCH_HAS_MMIOWB to elide
the barrier in cases where no I/O writes were performed inside the
critical section.

MIPS: remove meaningless generic-(CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM) += checksum.h

This line is weird in multiple ways.

(CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM) might be a typo of $(CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM).

Even if you add '$' to it, $(CONFIG_GENERIC_CSUM) is never evaluated
to 'y' because scripts/Makefile.asm-generic does not include
include/config/auto.conf. So, the asm-generic wrapper of checksum.h
is never generated.

Even if you manage to generate it, it is never included by anyone
because MIPS has the checkin header with the same file name:

arch/mips/include/asm/checksum.h

As you see in the top Makefile, the checkin headers are included before
generated ones.

LINUXINCLUDE := \
-I$(srctree)/arch/$(SRCARCH)/include \
-I$(objtree)/arch/$(SRCARCH)/include/generated \

Commit 4e0748f5beb9 ("MIPS: Use generic checksum functions for MIPS R6")

MIPS: Add custom serial.h with BASE_BAUD override for generic kernel

Add a custom serial.h header for MIPS, allowing platforms to override
the asm-generic version if required.

The generic platform uses this header to set BASE_BAUD to 0. The
generic platform supports multiple boards, which may have different
UART clocks. Also one of the boards supported is the Boston FPGA board,
where the UART clock depends on the loaded FPGA bitfile. As such there
is no way that the generic kernel can set a compile time default
BASE_BAUD.

Commit 31cb9a8575ca ("earlycon: initialise baud field of earlycon device
structure") changed the behavior of of_setup_earlycon such that any baud
rate set in the device tree is now set in the earlycon structure. The
UART driver will then calculate a divisor based on BASE_BAUD and set it.
With MIPS generic kernels this resulted in garbage output due to the
incorrect uart clock rate being used to calculate a divisor. This
commit, combined with "serial: 8250_early: Only set divisor if valid clk
& baud" prevents the earlycon code setting a bad divisor and restores
earlycon output.

The kernels used for these tests also had my "MIPS: Hardcode cpu_has_*
where known at compile time due to ISA" patch applied, which allows the
kernel_uses_llsc checks in cmpxchg() & xchg() to be optimised away at
compile time.

MIPS: Use queued read/write locks (qrwlock)

This patch switches MIPS to make use of generically implemented queued
read/write locks, rather than the custom implementation used previously.
This allows us to drop a whole load of inline assembly, share more
generic code, and is also a performance win.

sched/cputime: Remove generic asm headers

sched/cputime: Remove generic asm headers

cputime_t is now only used by two architectures:

* powerpc (when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y)
* s390

And since the core doesn't use it anymore, we don't need any arch support
from the others. So we can remove their stub implementations.

A final cleanup would be to provide an efficient pure arch
implementation of cputime_to_nsec() for s390 and powerpc and finally
remove include/linux/cputime.h .
