Disable CONFIG_STRICT_MEMORY_RWX

CONFIG_STRICT_MEMORY_RWX has good intentions. But it actually opens the kernel up to more vulnerabilities unless security patches are applied. 

https://www.codeaurora.org/projects/security-advisories/configstrictmemoryrwx-not-strictly-enforced-cve-2013-4737

The security patch that fixes CONFIG_STRICT_MEMORY_RWX takes up 1.9 MB of kernel space and about 1 MB of user memory. The only known exploit for what it fixes is ironically only for the unpatched version of this config.

Upstream Linux, which is usually very sensitive to security issues has
not implemented this config. In fact, Ubuntu has explicitly removed it
from their MSM builds http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/UsR4n0n1MLugFsH52gbL

Let's save the memory and just turn it off.

cpufreq: interactive: Modifying sync_freq implementation

1. Check for up_threshold_any_cpu_freq instead of sync_freq to
   boost the frequency to sync_freq.
2. Change the load threshold name from sync_freq_load_threshold to
   up_threshold_any_cpu_load
3. Do not consider CPUs with load less than up_threshold_any_cpu_load
   while evaluating max load across CPUs

cpufreq: interactive: Fix null pointer dereference in interactive governor

For the sync_freq feature currently we check pcpu->policy->cur frequency
for each online cpu.  But for a CPU that isn't using interactive governor
or for an offline CPU, pcpu->policy can be null or an invalid value.
This patch tries to avoid that scenario by using pcpu->target_freq
instead of policy->cur to get the frequency of an online CPU.

cpufreq: ondemand: Remove unnecessary synchronization attempt

Commit 1ce28d6b (ondemand: updated tune for hardware coordination)
brings in an attempt to synchronize expiry of per-cpu ondemand timer
at same time across all online cpus. This is meant to help systems
where "multiple cores share P-state via Hardware Coordination".

Synchronization is achieved by having timers expire when jiffy value
would be a perfect multiple of sampling window size. While such
synchronozation attemps are unnecessary on systems where cores don't
share P-states, it can hurt on power as cpus can now work off shorter
sampling windows (when percentage utilization over short window can be
observed to be high, causing frequency to be boosted).

Remove this unnecessary attempt to synchronize expiry of ondemand
timer across online cpus. A more acceptable solution could be to have
low-level architecture specific cpufreq driver indicate the need for
synchronization.

ARM: be strict about FP exceptions in kernel mode

The support code in vfp_support_entry does not care whether the
exception that caused it to be invoked occurred in kernel mode or
in user mode. However, neither condition that could trigger this
exception (lazy restore and VFP bounce to support code) is
currently allowable in kernel mode.

In either case, print a message describing the condition before
letting the undefined instruction handler run its course and trigger
an oops.

ARM: add support for kernel mode NEON

In order to safely support the use of NEON instructions in
kernel mode, some precautions need to be taken:
- the userland context that may be present in the registers (even
  if the NEON/VFP is currently disabled) must be stored under the
  correct task (which may not be 'current' in the UP case),
- to avoid having to keep track of additional vfpstates for the
  kernel side, disallow the use of NEON in interrupt context
  and run with preemption disabled,
- after use, re-enable preemption and re-enable the lazy restore
  machinery by disabling the NEON/VFP unit.

This patch adds the functions kernel_neon_begin() and
kernel_neon_end() which take care of the above. It also adds
the Kconfig symbol KERNEL_MODE_NEON to enable it.

ARM: 7835/2: fix modular build of xor_blocks() with NEON
 enabled

Commit 0195659 introduced a NEON accelerated version of the xor_blocks()
function, but it needs the changes in this patch to allow it to be built
as a module rather than statically into the kernel.

This patch creates a separate module xor-neon.ko which exports the NEON
inner xor_blocks() functions depended upon by the regular xor.ko if it
is built with CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON=y

ARM: add support for bit sliced AES using NEON instructions

Bit sliced AES gives around 45% speedup on Cortex-A15 for encryption
and around 25% for decryption. This implementation of the AES algorithm
does not rely on any lookup tables so it is believed to be invulnerable
to cache timing attacks.

This algorithm processes up to 8 blocks in parallel in constant time. This
means that it is not usable by chaining modes that are strictly sequential
in nature, such as CBC encryption. CBC decryption, however, can benefit from
this implementation and runs about 25% faster. The other chaining modes
implemented in this module, XTS and CTR, can execute fully in parallel in
both directions.

The core code has been adopted from the OpenSSL project (in collaboration
with the original author, on cc). For ease of maintenance, this version is
identical to the upstream OpenSSL code, i.e., all modifications that were
required to make it suitable for inclusion into the kernel have been made
upstream. The original can be found here:

    http://git.openssl.org/gitweb/?p=openssl.git;a=commit;h=6f6a6130

Note to integrators:
While this implementation is significantly faster than the existing table
based ones (generic or ARM asm), especially in CTR mode, the effects on
power efficiency are unclear as of yet. This code does fundamentally more
work, by calculating values that the table based code obtains by a simple
lookup; only by doing all of that work in a SIMD fashion, it manages to
perform better.
