The big thing is the disabling of the hsw support by default, cc: stable.
We've aimed for basic hsw support in 3.6, but due to a few bad
happenstances we've screwed up and only 3.8 will have better modeset
support than vesa. To avoid yet another round of fallout from such a
gaffle on for the next platform we've added a module option to disable
early hw support by default. That should also give us more flexibility in
bring-up.

 Otherwise just small fixes:
 - 3 fixes from Egbert for sdvo corner cases
 - invert-brightness quirk entry from Egbert
 - revert a dp link training change, it regresses some setups
 - and shut up a spurious WARN in our gem fault handler.

  arm64: Fix the update_vsyscall() prototype
  arm64: Select MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
  arm64: Remove duplicate inclusion of mmu_context.h in smp.c

An interesting effect of using the generic version of linkage.h
is that the padding is defined in terms of x86 NOPs, which can have
even more interesting effects when the assembly code looks like this:

ENTRY(func1)
	mov	x0, xzr
ENDPROC(func1)
	// fall through
ENTRY(func2)
	mov	x0, #1
	ret
ENDPROC(func2)

Admittedly, the code is not very nice. But having code from another
architecture doesn't look completely sane either.

The fix is to add arm64's version of linkage.h, which causes the insertion
of proper AArch64 NOPs.

Emit the magic string that indicates a module has a signature after the
signature data instead of before it.  This allows module_sig_check() to
be made simpler and faster by the elimination of the search for the
magic string.  Instead we just need to do a single memcmp().

This works because at the end of the signature data there is the
fixed-length signature information block.  This block then falls
immediately prior to the magic number.

From the contents of the information block, it is trivial to calculate
the size of the signature data and thus the size of the actual module
data.

  /proc/<pid>/numa_maps scans vma and show mempolicy under
  mmap_sem. It sometimes accesses task->mempolicy which can
  be freed without mmap_sem and numa_maps can show some
  garbage while scanning.

This patch tries to take reference count of task->mempolicy at reading
numa_maps before calling get_vma_policy(). By this, task->mempolicy
will not be freed until numa_maps reaches its end.

V2->v3
  -  updated comments to be more verbose.
  -  removed task_lock() in numa_maps code.
V1->V2
  -  access task->mempolicy only once and remember it.  Becase kernel/exit.c

free_pid_ns() operates in a recursive fashion:

free_pid_ns(parent)
  put_pid_ns(parent)
    kref_put(&ns->kref, free_pid_ns);
      free_pid_ns

thus if there was a huge nesting of namespaces the userspace may trigger
avalanche calling of free_pid_ns leading to kernel stack exhausting and a
panic eventually.

This patch turns the recursion into an iterative loop.

Rusty had clearly not actually tested his module signing changes that I
(trustingly) applied as commit e2a666d5 ("kbuild: sign the modules
at install time"). That commit had multiple bugs:

 - using "${#VARIABLE}" to get the number of characters in a shell
   variable may look clever, but it's locale-dependent: it returns the
   number of *characters*, not bytes. And we do need bytes.

   So don't use "${#..}" expansion, do the stupid "wc -c" thing instead
   (where "c" stands for "bytes", not "characters", despite the letter.

 - Rusty had confused "siglen" and "signerlen", and his conversion
   didn't set "signerlen" at all, and incorrectly set "siglen" to the
   size of the signer, not the size of the signature.

End result: the modified sign-file script did create something that
superficially *looked* like a signature, but didn't actually work at
all, and would fail the signature check. Oops.

Tssk, tssk, Rusty.

But Rusty was definitely right that this whole thing should be rewritten
in perl by somebody who has the perl-fu to do so.  That is not me,
though - I'm just doing an emergency fix for the shell script.
