Naresh reported another architecture that was broken by the same typo that
was already fixed for three architectures: mips also refers to the
futex_atomic_op_inuser_local() function by the wrong name and runs into a
missing closing '}' as well.

Going through the source tree the same typo was found in the documentation
as well as in the xtensa code, both of which ended up escaping the
regression testing so far. In the case of xtensa, it appears that the
broken code path is only used when building for platforms that are not
supported by the default gcc configuration, so they are impossible to test
for with default setups.

After going through these more carefully and fixing up the typos, all
architectures have been build-tested again to ensure that this is now
complete.

<title>futex: Ensure futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() is present</title>

<id>urn:sha1:3f2bedabb62c6210df63b604dc988d2f7f56f947</id>
<content type='text'>
The boot-time detection of futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic() has a bug on
some 32-bit arm builds, and Thomas Gleixner suggested that setting
CONFIG_HAVE_FUTEX_CMPXCHG would avoid the problem, as it is always present
anyway.

Looking into which other architectures could do the same showed that almost
all architectures have it, the exceptions being:

 - some old 32-bit MIPS uniprocessor cores without ll/sc
 - one xtensa variant with no SMP
 - 32-bit SPARC when built for SMP

Fix MIPS And Xtensa by rearranging the generic code to let it be used
as a fallback.

For SPARC, the SMP definition just ends up turning off futex anyway, so
this can be done at Kconfig time instead. Note that sparc32 glibc requires
the CASA instruction for its mutexes anyway, which is only available when
running on SPARCv9 or LEON CPUs, but needs to be implemented in the sparc32
kernel for those.

Move access_ok() in and pagefault_enable()/pagefault_disable() out.
Mechanical conversion only - some instances don't really need
a separate access_ok() at all (e.g. the ones only using
get_user()/put_user(), or architectures where access_ok()
is always true); we'll deal with that in followups.

Use "m" constraint instead of "r" for the address, as "m" allows
compiler to access adjacent locations using base + offset, while "r"
requires updating the base register every time.

Implement atomic primitives using exclusive access opcodes available in
the recent xtensa cores.
Since l32ex/s32ex don't have any memory ordering guarantees don't define
__smp_mb__before_atomic/__smp_mb__after_atomic to make them use memw.

Replace numeric inline assembly parameters with named parameters.
Drop unused parameters from the futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic.
Use new temporary variable to hold target address in the fixup code in
futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic. Conditionalize function bodies so that
only 'return -ENOSYS' is left in configurations without futex support.

These headers are not exported to userspace, so they're never used
without __KERNEL__ defined. Drop these ifdef statements.

<title>Remove 'type' argument from access_ok() function</title>

Nobody has actually used the type (VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE) argument
of the user address range verification function since we got rid of the
old racy i386-only code to walk page tables by hand.

It existed because the original 80386 would not honor the write protect
bit when in kernel mode, so you had to do COW by hand before doing any
user access.  But we haven't supported that in a long time, and these
days the 'type' argument is a purely historical artifact.

A discussion about extending 'user_access_begin()' to do the range
checking resulted this patch, because there is no way we're going to
move the old VERIFY_xyz interface to that model.  And it's best done at
the end of the merge window when I've done most of my merges, so let's
just get this done once and for all.

This patch was mostly done with a sed-script, with manual fix-ups for
the cases that weren't of the trivial 'access_ok(VERIFY_xyz' form.

There were a couple of notable cases:

 - csky still had the old "verify_area()" name as an alias.

 - the iter_iov code had magical hardcoded knowledge of the actual
   values of VERIFY_{READ,WRITE} (not that they mattered, since nothing
   really used it)

 - microblaze used the type argument for a debug printout

but other than those oddities this should be a total no-op patch.

I tried to fix up all architectures, did fairly extensive grepping for
access_ok() uses, and the changes are trivial, but I may have missed
something.  Any missed conversion should be trivially fixable, though.

xtensa assembler is capable of representing register loads with either
movi + addmi, l32r or const16, depending on the core configuration.
Don't use '.literal' and 'l32r' directly in the code, use 'movi' and let
the assembler relax them.
