This causes all non-NMI, non-double-fault kernel entries from
userspace to run on the normal kernel stack. Double-fault is
exempt to minimize confusion if we double-fault directly from
userspace due to a bad kernel stack.
This is, suprisingly, simpler and shorter than the current code. It
removes the IMO rather frightening paranoid_userspace path, and it
make sync_regs much simpler.
There is no risk of stack overflow due to this change -- the kernel
stack that we switch to is empty.
This will also enable us to create non-atomic sections within
machine checks from userspace, which will simplify memory failure
handling. It will also allow the upcoming fsgsbase code to be
simplified, because it doesn't need to worry about usergs when
scheduling in paranoid_exit, as that code no longer exists.

Support for Wake-on-LAN using Magic Packet. ENET IP supports sleep mode
in low power status, when system enter suspend status, Magic packet can
wake up system even if all SOC clocks are gate. The patch doing below things:
- flagging the device as a wakeup source for the system, as well as
its Wake-on-LAN interrupt
- prepare the hardware for entering WoL mode
- add standard ethtool WOL interface
- enable the ENET interrupt to wake us
Tested on i.MX6q/dl sabresd, sabreauto boards, i.MX6SX arm2 boards.

Manually bumping either nf_conntrack_buckets or nf_conntrack_max has
become a common task as our Linux servers tend to serve more and more
clients/applications, so let's adjust nf_conntrack_buckets this to a
more updated value.
Now for systems with more than 4GB of memory, nf_conntrack_buckets
becomes 65536 instead of 16384, resulting in nf_conntrack_max=256k

The DU uses the module functional clock as the default pixel clock, but
supports using an externally supplied pixel clock instead. Support this
by adding the external pixel clock to the DT bindings, and selecting the
clock automatically at runtime based on the requested mode pixel
frequency.

currently hardcoded to connect input clock i to channel i.

This commit introduces code for the live patching core. It implements
an ftrace-based mechanism and kernel interface for doing live patching
of kernel and kernel module functions.
It represents the greatest common functionality set between kpatch and
kgraft and can accept patches built using either method.
This first version does not implement any consistency mechanism that
ensures that old and new code do not run together. In practice, ~90% of
CVEs are safe to apply in this way, since they simply add a conditional
check. However, any function change that can not execute safely with
the old version of the function can _not_ be safely applied in this
version.
