<id>cc2d316fe7b2f39ecacdbd4be04fccbc2476cb7a</id>
<content type='text'>
Switch to using the newly created asm-generic/seccomp.h for the seccomp
strict mode syscall definitions. Since microblaze is 32-bit, the COMPAT
seccomp defines are unused and can be dropped. The obsolete sigreturn
for seccomp strict mode is retained as an override. Remaining definitions
are identical.

<id>b97ea289cf6aff8d4cbcefe2b707bb9b00a73c73</id>
<content type='text'>
Previously, pci_scan_root_bus() created a root PCI bus, enumerated the
devices on it, and called pci_bus_add_devices(), which made the devices
available for drivers to claim them.

Most callers assigned resources to devices after pci_scan_root_bus()
returns, which may be after drivers have claimed the devices.  This is
incorrect; the PCI core should not change device resources while a driver
is managing the device.

Remove pci_bus_add_devices() from pci_scan_root_bus() and do it after any
resource assignment in the callers.

Note that ARM's pci_common_init_dev() already called pci_bus_add_devices()
after pci_scan_root_bus(), so we only need to remove the first call:

  pci_common_init_dev
    pcibios_init_hw
      pci_scan_root_bus
        pci_bus_add_devices        # first call
    pci_bus_assign_resources
    pci_bus_add_devices            # second call

[bhelgaas: changelog, drop "root_bus" var in alpha common_init_pci(),
return failure earlier in mn10300, add "return" in x86 pcibios_scan_root(),
return early if xtensa platform_pcibios_fixup() fails]

This patch fixes two bugs in the Microblaze syscall trap handler when an invalid
syscall ID is used.

First, the range check on line 351 only checks for syscall IDs greater than
__NR_syscalls. A negative syscall ID (either passed to `syscall()` or as returned
by `do_syscall_trace_enter()` on error) will still satisfy this test and cause
the Linux kernel to access an invalid memory location and cause a kernel oops.
This has been fixed by also checking for r12 &lt; 0.

Secondly, the current error recovery at line 378 returns using the wrong register
(r15 instead of r14) and does not restore the previous stack state. This has been
fixed by invoking `ret_from_trap` on error, setting r3 to `-ENOSYS`, similar to
what would happen when calling a valid syscall.
