a66022c457 iommu-helper: use bitmap library
Use bitmap library and kill some unused iommu helper functions.

1. s/iommu_area_free/bitmap_clear/

2. s/iommu_area_reserve/bitmap_set/

3. Use bitmap_find_next_zero_area instead of find_next_zero_area

  This cannot be simple substitution because find_next_zero_area
  doesn't check the last bit of the limit in bitmap

4. Remove iommu_area_free, iommu_area_reserve, and find_next_zero_area

7466bd3caa sparc64: Fix clock event multiplier printf format.
The type got changed to u32, so %lx generated warnings
(and thus build failure on sparc64)

Stephen Rothwell fixed it like so:

-	printk("clockevent: mult[%lx] shift[%d]\n",
+	printk("clockevent: mult[%ux] shift[%d]\n",

But that's not a valid transformation, we now get:

clockevent: mult[51539607x] shift[32]

in the logs.

Fix it to use the correct plain "%x" instead.

4230fa3b89 sparc64: Fix overly strict range type matching for PCI devices.
When we are trying to see if a range property entry applies
to a given address, we are overly strict about the type.

We should only allow I/O ranges for I/O addresses, and only allow
CONFIG space ranges for CONFIG space address.

However for MEM ranges, they come in 32-bit and 64-bit flavors.
And a lack of an exact match is OK if the range is 32-bit and
the address is 64-bit.  We can assign a 64-bit address properly
into a 32-bit parent range just fine.

So allow it.

49ab972aea sparc: Remove BKL from apc
commit ab772027 (sparc: arch/sparc/kernel/apc.c to unlocked_ioctl)
added lock/unlock_kernel() to the apc ioctl code.

The code needs no serialization at all. Neither put/get_user nor the
read/write access to the sbus devices require it. Remove BKL.

cycle_kernel_lock() was added during the big BKL pushdown. It should
ensure the serializiation against driver init code. In this case there
is nothing to serialize. Remove it as well.

c58543c869 sparc64: Set IRQF_DISABLED on LDC channel IRQs.
With lots of virtual devices it's easy to generate a lot of
events and chew up the kernel IRQ stack.

a2e2725541 net: Introduce recvmmsg socket syscall
Meaning receive multiple messages, reducing the number of syscalls and
net stack entry/exit operations.

Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to
optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation.

This takes into account comments made by:

. Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram,
  sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest.

. Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that
  works in the same fashion as the ppoll one.

  If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this
  will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB
  one) it has received so far.

. Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen
  datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return
  the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it
  in the next call.

This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg,
where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at
every underlying recvmsg call.
