There are a lof of work to be done in function kexec_load, not only for
allocating structs and loading initram, but also for some misc.
To make it more clear, wrap a new function do_kexec_load which is used
to allocate structs and load initram. And the pre-work will be done in
kexec_load.

For some arch, kexec shall map the reserved pages, then use them, when
we try to start the kdump service.
kexec may return directly, without unmaping the reserved pages, if it
fails during starting service. To fix it, we make a pair of map/unmap
reserved pages both in generic path and error path.
This patch only affects s390. Other architecturess don't implement the
interface of crash_unmap_reserved_pages and crash_map_reserved_pages.
It isn't a urgent patch. Kernel can work well without any risk,
although the reserved pages are not unmapped before returning in error
path.

For the cases that some kernel (module) path stamps the crash reserved
memory(already mapped by the kernel) where has been loaded the second
kernel data, the kdump kernel will probably fail to boot when panic
happens (or even not happens) leaving the culprit at large, this is
unacceptable.
The patch introduces a mechanism for detecting such cases:
1) After each crash kexec loading, it simply marks the reserved memory
regions readonly since we no longer access it after that. When someone
stamps the region, the first kernel will panic and trigger the kdump.
The weak arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() is introduced to do the actual
protection.
2) To allow multiple loading, once 1) was done we also need to remark
the reserved memory to readwrite each time a system call related to
kdump is made. The weak arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres() is introduced
to do the actual protection.
The architecture can make its specific implementation by overriding
arch_kexec_protect_crashkres() and arch_kexec_unprotect_crashkres().

remove_arg_zero() does free_arg_page() for no reason. This was needed
before and only if CONFIG_MMU=y: see commit 4fc75ff481 ("exec: fix
remove_arg_zero"), install_arg_page() was called for every page != NULL
in bprm->page[] array. Today install_arg_page() has already gone and
free_arg_page() is nop after another commit b6a2fea393 ("mm: variable
length argument support").
CONFIG_MMU=n does free_arg_pages() in free_bprm() and thus it doesn't
need remove_arg_zero()->free_arg_page() too; apart from get_arg_page()
it never checks if the page in bprm->page[] was allocated or not, so the
"extra" non-freed page is fine. OTOH, this free_arg_page() can add the
minor pessimization, the caller is going to do copy_strings_kernel()
right after remove_arg_zero() which will likely need to re-allocate the
same page again.
And as Hujunjie pointed out, the "offset == PAGE_SIZE" check is wrong
because we are going to increment bprm->p once again before return, so
CONFIG_MMU=n "leaks" the page anyway if '0' is the final byte in this
page.
NOTE: remove_arg_zero() assumes that argv[0] is null-terminated but this
is not necessarily true. copy_strings() does "len = strnlen_user(...)",
then copy_from_user(len) but another thread or debuger can overwrite the
trailing '0' in between. Afaics nothing really bad can happen because
we must always have the null-terminated bprm->filename copied by the 1st
copy_strings_kernel(), but perhaps we should change this code to check
"bprm->p < bprm->exec" anyway, and/or change copy_strings() to ensure
that the last byte in string is always zero.

Linux preallocates the task structs of the idle tasks for all possible
CPUs. This currently means they all end up on node 0. This also
implies that the cache line of MWAIT, which is around the flags field in
the task struct, are all located in node 0.
We see a noticeable performance improvement on Knights Landing CPUs when
the cache lines used for MWAIT are located in the local nodes of the
CPUs using them. I would expect this to give a (likely slight)
improvement on other systems too.
The patch implements placing the idle task in the node of its CPUs, by
passing the right target node to copy_process()

Currently the size of "struct signal_struct"->oom_flags member is
sizeof(unsigned) bytes, but only one flag OOM_FLAG_ORIGIN which is
updated by current thread is defined. We can convert OOM_FLAG_ORIGIN
into a bool, and reuse the saved bytes for updating from the OOM killer
and/or the OOM reaper thread.
By the way, do we care about a race window between run_store() and
swapoff() because it would be theoretically possible that two threads
sharing the "struct signal_struct" concurrently call respective
functions? If we care, we can make oom_flags an atomic_t.

The following program (simplified version of generated by syzkaller)
#include <pthread.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/ptrace.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <signal.h>
void *thread_func(void *arg)
{
ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME, 0,0,0);
return 0;
}
int main(void)
{
pthread_t thread;
if (fork())
return 0;
while (getppid() != 1)
;
pthread_create(&thread, NULL, thread_func, NULL);
pthread_join(thread, NULL);
return 0;
}
creates an unreapable zombie if /sbin/init doesn't use __WALL.
This is not a kernel bug, at least in a sense that everything works as
expected: debugger should reap a traced sub-thread before it can reap the
leader, but without __WALL/__WCLONE do_wait() ignores sub-threads.
Unfortunately, it seems that /sbin/init in most (all?) distributions
doesn't use it and we have to change the kernel to avoid the problem.
Note also that most init's use sys_waitid() which doesn't allow __WALL, so
the necessary user-space fix is not that trivial.
This patch just adds the "ptrace" check into eligible_child(). To some
degree this matches the "tsk->ptrace" in exit_notify(), ->exit_signal is
mostly ignored when the tracee reports to debugger. Or WSTOPPED, the
tracer doesn't need to set this flag to wait for the stopped tracee.
This obviously means the user-visible change: __WCLONE and __WALL no
longer have any meaning for debugger. And I can only hope that this won't
break something, but at least strace/gdb won't suffer.
We could make a more conservative change. Say, we can take __WCLONE into
account, or !thread_group_leader(). But it would be nice to not
complicate these historical/confusing checks.

I'm looking at trying to possibly merge the 32-bit and 64-bit versions
of the x86 uaccess.h implementation, but first this needs to be cleaned
up.
For example, the 32-bit version of "__copy_from_user_inatomic()" is
mostly the special cases for the constant size, and it's actually almost
never relevant. Most users aren't actually using a constant size
anyway, and the few cases that do small constant copies are better off
just using __get_user() instead.
So get rid of the unnecessary complexity.

[ The same cleanup should likely happen to __copy_from_user_inatomic()
as well, but that one has a lot more users that I need to take a look
at first ]

Merge tag 'for-f2fs-4.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jaegeuk/f2fs
Pull f2fs updates from Jaegeuk Kim:
"In this round, as Ted pointed out, fscrypto allows one more key prefix
given by filesystem to resolve backward compatibility issues. Other
than that, we've fixed several error handling cases by introducing
a fault injection facility. We've also achieved performance
improvement in some workloads as well as a bunch of bug fixes.
Summary:
Enhancements:
- fs-specific prefix for fscrypto
- fault injection facility
- expose validity bitmaps for user to be aware of fragmentation
- fallocate/rm/preallocation speed up
- use percpu counters
Bug fixes:
- some inline_dentry/inline_data bugs
- error handling for atomic/volatile/orphan inodes
- recover broken superblock"

Pull btrfs updates from Chris Mason:
"This has our merge window series of cleanups and fixes. These target
a wide range of issues, but do include some important fixes for
qgroups, O_DIRECT, and fsync handling. Jeff Mahoney moved around a
few definitions to make them easier for userland to consume.
Also whiteout support is included now that issues with overlayfs have
been cleared up.
I have one more fix pending for page faults during btrfs_copy_from_user,
but I wanted to get this bulk out the door first"
