checkpatch: add error on use of attribute((weak)) or __weak declarations

Using weak declarations can have unintended link defects.  The __weak on
the declaration causes non-weak definitions to become weak.

Emit an error on its use.

Commit 66b47b4a9dad ("checkpatch: look for common misspellings") made it

checkpatch: try to avoid mask and shift errors

Shift has a higher precedence that mask so warn when a mask then shift
operation is done without parentheses around the mask.

This test works well for a right shift, but the left shift is pretty
commonly done correctly so only warn on the right shift.

The use of older function ptr calling style, (*fn)(), makes static

checkpatch: allow certain SI units with three characters

Checkpatch flags CamelCase identifiers in strict mode, but it has a
feature to ignore parts with only two characters to allow for SI units
like mV or uA.  Unfortunately, not all SI units fit in two characters, and
not all are lower case followed by upper case.

This patch adds hardcoded detection for frequency and 1024-based size
units (Hz/KHz/MHz/GHz/THz and KiB/MiB/GiB/TiB), since allowing any three
character combinations might be too lenient.  The list can later be
expanded as needed.

binfmt_misc: add comments & debug logs

When trying to develop a custom format handler, the errors returned all
effectively get bucketed as EINVAL with no kernel messages.  The other
errors (ENOMEM/EFAULT) are internal/obvious and basic.  Thus any time a
bad handler is rejected, the developer has to walk the dense code and
try to guess where it went wrong.  Needing to dive into kernel code is
itself a fairly high barrier for a lot of people.

To improve this situation, let's deploy extensive pr_debug markers at
logical parse points, and add comments to the dense parsing logic.  It
let's you see exactly where the parsing aborts, the string the kernel
received (useful when dealing with shell code), how it translated the
buffers to binary data, and how it will apply the mask at runtime.

Some example output:
  $ echo ':qemu-foo:M::\x7fELF\xAD\xAD\x01\x00:\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\x00\xff\x00:/usr/bin/qemu-foo:POC' > register

fs/binfmt_elf.c: fix internal inconsistency relating to vma dump size

vma_dump_size() has been used several times on actual dumper and it is
supposed to return the same value for the same vma.  But vma_dump_size()
could return different values for same vma.

The known problem case is concurrent shared memory removal.  If a vma is
used for a shared memory and that shared memory is removed between
writing program header and dumping vma memory, this will result in a
dump file which is internally consistent.

To fix the problem, we set baseline to get dump size and store the size
into vma_filesz and always use the same vma dump size which is stored in
vma_filsz.  The consistnecy with reality is not actually guranteed, but
it's tolerable since that is fully consistent with base line.

init: allow CONFIG_INIT_FALLBACK=n to disable defaults if init= fails

If a user puts init=/whatever on the command line and /whatever can't be
run, then the kernel will try a few default options before giving up.  If
init=/whatever came from a bootloader prompt, then this is unexpected but
probably harmless.  On the other hand, if it comes from a script (e.g.  a
tool like virtme or perhaps a future kselftest script), then the fallbacks
are likely to exist, but they'll do the wrong thing.  For example, they
might unexpectedly invoke systemd.

This adds a config option CONFIG_INIT_FALLBACK.  If unset, then a failure
to run the specified init= process be fatal.

The tentative plan is to remove CONFIG_INIT_FALLBACK for 3.20.

ncpfs: return proper error from NCP_IOC_SETROOT ioctl

If some error happens in NCP_IOC_SETROOT ioctl, the appropriate error
return value is then (in most cases) just overwritten before we return.
This can result in reporting success to userspace although error happened.

Move rtc register to be later than hardware initialization.  The reason
is that devm_rtc_device_register() will do read_time() which is a

Some rtc devices always return '0' when rtc_class_ops.read_time is

Check rtc_time by using 'rtc_valid_tm' in '__rtc_read_time'.  And add
