The pci hotplug helper (pci_hp_add_devices()) calls
eeh_add_device_tree_early() to scan the device-tree for new PCI devices and
do the early EEH probe before the device is scanned. This early probe is a
no-op in a lot of cases because:
a) The early init is only required to satisfy a PAPR

This series reworks how EEH devices are initialised. This mainly affects
pseries since it moves the "early" EEH probe out of shared code and into
pseries platform code. The goal here is to make the platform
dependencies more explicit and to allow PowerNV to implement its own
pci_dev <-> eeh_dev
This check for a missing PHB has existing in various forms since the
initial PPC64 port was upstreamed in 2002. The idea seems to be that we
need to guard against creating pci-specific data structures for the non-pci
children of a PCI device tree node (e.g. USB devices). However, we only
create
On pseries and PowerNV pcibios_bus_add_device() calls eeh_add_device_late()
so there's no need to do a separate tree traversal to bind the eeh_dev and
pci_dev together setting up the PHB at boot. As a result we can remove
eeh_add_device_tree_late().

Move creating the EEH specific sysfs files into eeh_add_device_late()
rather than being open-coded all over the place. Calling the function is
generally done immediately after calling eeh_add_device_late() anyway. The
two cases where it's not done there (OF based PCI probing and the pseries
VFs)
With the EEH early probe now being pseries specific there's no need for
eeh_ops->probe() to take a pci_dn. Instead, we can make it take a pci_dev
and use the probe function to map a pci_dev to an eeh_dev. This allows
the platform to implement it's own method for finding (or creating) an
eeh_dev

The only missing configuration option preventing us from using
multi_v7_defconfig with the Raspberry Pi 4 is ARM_LPAE. It's needed as
the PCIe controller found on the SoC depends on 64bit addressing, yet
can't be included as not all v7 boards support LPAE.
Introduce multi_v7_lpae_defconfig, built
This series introduces a new configuration target,
multi_v7_lpae_defconfig, built by merging the config fragment
lpae.config with mult_v7_defconfig. Ultimately needed in order for
Raspberry Pi 4's PCIe bus to work on arm builds, but which may benefit
other boards out there.

_tlbia() is a function used only on 603/603e core, ie on CPUs which
don't have a hash table.
_tlbia() uses the tlbia macro which implements a loop of 1024 tlbie.
On the 603/603e core, flushing the entire TLB requires no more than
32 tlbie.
Replace tlbia by a loop of 32 tlbie.

architectures might benefit from it. Move it into

The eeh_ops->probe() function is called from two different contexts:
1. On pseries, where set set EEH_PROBE_MODE_DEVTREE, it's called in
eeh_add_device_early() which is supposed to run before we create
a pci_dev.
2. On PowerNV, where we set EEH_PROBE_MODE_DEV, it's called in

This test triggers a TM Bad Thing by raising a signal in transactional state
and forcing a pagefault to happen in kernelspace when the kernel signal
handling code first touches the user signal stack.
This is inspired by the test tm-signal-context-force-tm but uses userfaultfd to
make the test
The test case tm-signal-context-force-tm expects a segfault to happen on
returning from signal handler, and then does a setcontext() to run the test
again. However, the test doesn't always segfault, causing the test to run a
single time.
This patch fixes the test by putting it within a loop and

After a treclaim, we expect to be in non-transactional state. If we don't
immediately clear the current thread's MSR[TS] and we get preempted, then
tm_recheckpoint_new_task() will recheckpoint and we get rescheduled in
suspended transaction state.

Some architectures like powerpc64 have the capability to separate
read access and write access protection.
For get_user() and copy_from_user(), powerpc64 only open read access.

But when using unsafe_get_user() or
