[ Upstream commit 97534127012f0e396eddea4691f4c9b170aed74b ]

Commit 61f77eda9bbf ("mm/hugetlb: reduce arch dependent code around
follow_huge_*") broke follow_huge_pmd() on s390, where pmd and pte
layout differ and using pte_page() on a huge pmd will return wrong
results.  Using pmd_page() instead fixes this.

All architectures that were touched by that commit have pmd_page()
defined, so this should not break anything on other architectures.

Fixes: 61f77eda "mm/hugetlb: reduce arch dependent code around follow_huge_*"

<title>vm: add VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV handling support</title>

<id>urn:sha1:da7f8de9647a8401c36e0bff69dfa58b066a4c47</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 33692f27597fcab536d7cbbcc8f52905133e4aa7 upstream.

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.

That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works.  However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.

In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV.  And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.

However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d4514 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space.  And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.

To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it.  They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.

This is the mindless minimal patch to do this.  A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.

Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

Pull audit updates from Eric Paris:
 "So this change across a whole bunch of arches really solves one basic
  problem.  We want to audit when seccomp is killing a process.  seccomp
  hooks in before the audit syscall entry code.  audit_syscall_entry
  took as an argument the arch of the given syscall.  Since the arch is
  part of what makes a syscall number meaningful it's an important part
  of the record, but it isn't available when seccomp shoots the
  syscall...

  For most arch's we have a better way to get the arch (syscall_get_arch)
  So the solution was two fold: Implement syscall_get_arch() everywhere
  there is audit which didn't have it.  Use syscall_get_arch() in the
  seccomp audit code.  Having syscall_get_arch() everywhere meant it was
  a useless flag on the stack and we could get rid of it for the typical
  syscall entry.

  The other changes inside the audit system aren't grand, fixed some
  records that had invalid spaces.  Better locking around the task comm
  field.  Removing some dead functions and structs.  Make some things
  static.  Really minor stuff"

Pull GPIO changes from Linus Walleij:
 "This is the bulk of GPIO changes for the v3.18 development cycle:

   - Increase the default ARCH_NR_GPIO from 256 to 512.  This was done
     to avoid having a custom &lt;asm/gpio.h&gt; header for the x86
     architecture - GPIO is custom and complicated enough as it is
     already! We want to move to a radix to store the descriptors going
     forward, and finally get rid of this fixed array size altogether.

   - Endgame patching of the gpio_remove() semantics initiated by
     Abdoulaye Berthe.  It is not accepted by the system that the
     removal of a GPIO chip fails during eg reboot or shutdown, and
     therefore the return value has now painfully been refactored away.
     For special cases like GPIO expanders on a hot-pluggable bus like
     USB, we may later add some gpiochip_try_remove() call, but for the
     cases we have now, return values are moot.

   - Some incremental refactoring of the gpiolib core and ACPI GPIO
     library for more descriptor usage.

   - Refactor the chained IRQ handler set-up method to handle also
     threaded, nested interrupts and set up the parent IRQ correctly.
     Switch STMPE and TC3589x drivers to use this registration method.

   - Add a .irq_not_threaded flag to the struct gpio_chip, so that also
     GPIO expanders that block but are still not using threaded IRQ
     handlers.

   - New drivers for the ARM64 X-Gene SoC GPIO controller.

   - The syscon GPIO driver has been improved to handle the "DSP GPIO"
     found on the TI Keystone 2 SoC:s.

   - ADNP driver switched to use gpiolib irqchip helpers.

   - Refactor the DWAPB driver to support being instantiated from and
     MFD cell (platform device).

   - Incremental feature improvement in the Zynq, MCP23S08, DWAPB, OMAP,
     Xilinx and Crystalcove drivers.

   - Various minor fixes"
