ARM: dts: meson8b-odroidc1: ethernet support
The Odroid-C1+ board is equipped with an RTL8211F ethernet PHY
which supports 10/100/1000 Mbps ethernet.
The PHY reset and interrupt lines are controlled by the SoC via
two GPIO lines (GPIOH_4 and GPIOH_3 respectively).
The PHY energy efficient ethernet (eee) mode is marked as broken
using "eee-broken-1000t" because, during tests, high packet losses

x86: Make x32 syscall support conditional on a kernel parameter
Enabling x32 in the standard amd64 kernel would increase its attack
surface while provide no benefit to the vast majority of its users.
No-one seems interested in regularly checking for vulnerabilities
specific to x32 (at least no-one with a white hat).
Still, adding another flavour just to turn on x32 seems wasteful. And
the only differences on syscall entry are a few instructions that mask
out the x32 flag and compare the syscall number.
Use a static key to control whether x32 syscalls are really enabled, a
Kconfig parameter to set its default value and a kernel parameter
"syscall.x32" to change it at boot time.

mmap: Add an exception to the stack gap for Hotspot JVM compatibility
The Hotspot JVM can easily exhaust the default stack, and has a
SIGSEGV handler to cope with this by switching to a new stack segment.
However, on i386 it creates a single writable and executable page just
under the stack limit as a workaround for a bug in Exec Shield. That
together with the enlarged stack gap causes the SIGSEGV handler to be
triggered when the stack pointer is further away from the stack limit,
and it doesn't recognise this as being a stack overflow.
This specifically affects programs that use JNI. Hotspot doesn't
normally run Java code on the initial thread.
Reduce the effective stack guard gap on x86 if the previous vma is
a single page allocated as MAP_FIXED.

radeon, amdgpu: Firmware is required for DRM and KMS on R600 onward
radeon requires firmware/microcode for the GPU in all chips, but for
newer chips (apparently R600 'Evergreen' onward) it also expects
firmware for the memory controller and other sub-blocks.
radeon attempts to gracefully fall back and disable some features if
the firmware is not available, but becomes unstable - the framebuffer
and/or system memory may be corrupted, or the display may stay black.
Therefore, perform a basic check for the existence of
/lib/firmware/{radeon,amdgpu} when a device is probed, and abort if it
is missing, except for the pre-R600 case.

In case of a driver that tries multiple names, this may result in the
impression that it failed to initialise. Therefore, also log successes.
This makes many error messages in drivers redundant, which will be
removed in later patches.
This does not cover the case where we fall back to a user-mode helper
(which is no longer enabled in Debian).

Hardcode arch script output
Here's a patch that simply uses hardcoded definitions instead of
doing the dynamic tests that require architecture-specific scripts.
I don't particularly like this approach because it restricts
portability and diverts from upstream. But, it is simpler, and this
really needs to be fixed somehow before etch (along with a rebuild of
linux-modules-extra-2.6), so I'm willing to live with it if my other
patch is deemed unacceptable.
My primary concern is that, in the future, the output of these scripts
will change and we (or our successors) will either not notice or
forget to update the hardcoded values.
Including the scripts in linux-kbuild will avoid this manual step
altogether, and allow for the possibility of other archs to provide
their own scripts in the future.
