Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
"A reasonably busy cycle for documentation this time around. There is a
new guide for user-space API documents, rather sparsely populated at
the moment, but it's a start. Markus improved the infrastructure for
converting diagrams. Mauro has converted much of the USB documentation
over to RST. Plus the usual set of fixes, improvements, and tweaks.
There's a bit more than the usual amount of reaching out of
Documentation/ to fix comments elsewhere in the tree; I have acks for
those where I could get them"

The latest change of asm goto support check added passing of KBUILD_CFLAGS
to compiler. When these flags reference gcc plugins that are not built yet,
the check fails.
When one runs "make bzImage" followed by "make modules", the kernel is always
built with HAVE_JUMP_LABEL disabled, while the modules are built depending on
CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL. If HAVE_JUMP_LABEL macro happens to be different, modules
are built with undefined references, e.g.:
ERROR: "static_key_slow_inc" [net/netfilter/xt_TEE.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "static_key_slow_dec" [net/netfilter/xt_TEE.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "static_key_slow_dec" [net/netfilter/nft_meta.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "static_key_slow_inc" [net/netfilter/nft_meta.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "nf_hooks_needed" [net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "nf_hooks_needed" [net/ipv6/ipv6.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "static_key_count" [net/ipv6/ipv6.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "static_key_slow_inc" [net/ipv6/ipv6.ko] undefined!
This change moves the check before all these references are added
to KBUILD_CFLAGS. This is correct because subsequent KBUILD_CFLAGS
modifications are not relevant to this check.

In commit a76bcf557ef4 ("Kbuild: enable -Wmaybe-uninitialized warning
for "make W=1""), I reverted another change that happened to fix a problem
with old compilers, and now we get this report again with old compilers
(prior to gcc-4.8) and GCOV enabled:
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_ringbuffer.c: In function 'intel_ring_setup_status_page':
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_ringbuffer.c:438: error: 'mmio.reg' may be used uninitialized in this function
At top level:
>> cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-Wno-maybe-uninitialized"
The problem is that we turn off the warning conditionally in a number
of places as we should, but one of them does it unconditionally.
Instead, change it to call cc-disable-warning as we do elsewhere.
The original patch that caused it was merged into linux-4.7, then
4.8 removed the change and 4.9 brought it back, so we probably want
a backport to 4.9 once this is merged.
Use a ':=' assignment instead of '=' to force the cc-disable-warning
call to only be evaluated once instead of every time.

When building a CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION enabled kernel without the
libelf devel package installed, the Makefile prints a warning:
"Cannot use CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION, please install libelf-dev, libelf-devel or elfutils-libelf-devel"
But when building an out-of-tree module, the warning doesn't show.
Instead it tries to use objtool, and the build fails with:
/bin/sh: ./tools/objtool/objtool: No such file or directory
Make sure the warning and the disabling of objtool occur in all cases,
by moving the CONFIG_STACK_VALIDATION checks outside the 'ifeq
($(KBUILD_EXTMOD),)' block in the Makefile.

Documentation shouldn't have broken links.
sphinx linkcheck builder scans all documents for external links, tries
to open them with urllib2, and writes an overview which ones are broken
and redirected to standard output and to output.txt in the output
directory.

Pull perf updates from Ingo Molnar:
"On the kernel side the main changes in this cycle were:
- Add Intel Kaby Lake CPU support (Srinivas Pandruvada)
- AMD uncore driver updates for fam17 (Janakarajan Natarajan)
- Intel/PT updates and core events optimizations and cleanups
(Alexander Shishkin)
- cgroups events fixes (David Carrillo-Cisneros)
- kprobes improvements (Masami Hiramatsu)
- ... plus misc fixes and updates.
On the tooling side the main changes were:
- Support clang build in tools/{perf,lib/{bpf,traceevent,api}} with
CC=clang, to, for instance, take advantage of better warnings
(Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo):
- Introduce the 'delta-abs' 'perf diff' compute method, that orders
the histogram entries by the absolute value of the percentage delta
for a function in two perf.data files, i.e. the functions that
changed the most (increase or decrease in samples) comes first
(Namhyung Kim)
- Add support for parsing Intel uncore vendor event files and add
uncore vendor events for the Intel server processors (Haswell,
Broadwell, IvyBridge), Xeon Phi (Knights Landing) and Broadwell DE
(Andi Kleen)
- Introduce 'perf ftrace' a perf front end to the kernel's ftrace
function and function_graph tracer, defaulting to the
"function_graph" tracer, more work will be done in reviving this
effort, forward porting it from its initial patch submission
(Namhyung Kim)
- Add 'e' and 'c' hotkeys to expand/collapse call chains for a single
hist entry in the 'perf report' and 'perf top' TUI (Jiri Olsa)
- Account thread wait time (off CPU time) separately: sleep, iowait
and preempt, based on the prev_state of the last event, show the
breakdown when using "perf sched timehist --state" (Namhyumg Kim)
- Add more triggers to switch the output file (perf.data.TIMESTAMP).
Now, in addition to switching to a different output file when
receiving a SIGUSR2, one can also specify file size and time based
triggers:
perf record -a --switch-output=signal
is equivalent to what we had before:
perf record -a --switch-output
While we can also ask for the file to be "sliced" by size, taking
into account that that will happen only when we get woken up by the
kernel, i.e. one has to take into account the --mmap-pages (the
size of the perf mmap ring buffer):
perf record -a --switch-output=2G
will break the perf.data output into multiple files limited to 2GB
of samples, right when generating the output.
For time based samples, alert() will be used, so to have 1 minute
limited perf.data output files:
perf record -a --switch-output=1m
(Jiri Olsa)
- Improve 'perf trace' (Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo)
- 'perf kallsyms' toy tool to look for extended symbol information on
the running kernel and demonstrate the machine/thread/symbol APIs
for use in other tools, such as 'perf probe' (Arnaldo Carvalho de
Melo)
- ... plus tons of other changes, see the shortlog and Git log for
details"
* 'perf-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (131 commits)
perf tools: Add missing parse_events_error() prototype
perf pmu: Fix check for unset alias->unit array

When doing a kernel build with 'make -s', everything is silenced except
the objtool build. That's because the tools tree support for silent
builds is some combination of missing and broken.
Three changes are needed to fix it:
- Makefile: propagate '-s' to the sub-make's MAKEFLAGS variable so the
tools Makefiles can see it.
- tools/scripts/Makefile.include: fix the tools Makefiles' ability to
recognize '-s'. The MAKE_VERSION and MAKEFLAGS checks are copied from
the top-level Makefile. This silences the "DESCEND objtool" message.
- tools/build/Makefile.build: add support to the tools Build files for
recognizing '-s'. Again the MAKE_VERSION and MAKEFLAGS checks are
copied from the top-level Makefile. This silences all the object
compile/link messages.

Some versions of ARM GCC compiler such as Android toolchain throws in a
'-fpic' flag by default. This causes the gcc-goto check script to fail
although some config would have '-fno-pic' flag in the KBUILD_CFLAGS.
This patch passes the KBUILD_CFLAGS to the check script so that the
script does not rely on the default config from different compilers.

When building a specific target such as bzImage, modules aren't normally
built. However if CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS is enabled, no built modules
means none of the exported symbols are used and therefore they will all
be trimmed away from the final kernel. A subsequent "make modules" will
fail because modpost cannot find the needed symbols for those modules in
the kernel binary.
Let's make sure modules are also built whenever CONFIG_TRIM_UNUSED_KSYMS
is enabled and that the kernel binary is properly rebuilt accordingly.

Pull kbuild fixes from Michal Marek:
"Here are some regression fixes for kbuild:
- modversion support for exported asm symbols (Nick Piggin). The
affected architectures need separate patches adding
asm-prototypes.h.
- fix rebuilds of lib-ksyms.o (Nick Piggin)
- -fno-PIE builds (Sebastian Siewior and Borislav Petkov). This is
not a kernel regression, but one of the Debian gcc package.

So Sebastian turned off the PIE for kernel builds but that was too late
- Kbuild.include already uses KBUILD_CFLAGS and trying to disable gcc
options with, say cc-disable-warning, fails:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -Wall -Wundef -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs
...
-Wno-sign-compare -fno-asynchronous-unwind-tables -Wframe-address -c -x c /dev/null -o .31392.tmp
/dev/null:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode
because that returns an error and we can't disable the warning. For
example in this case:
KBUILD_CFLAGS += $(call cc-disable-warning,frame-address,)
which leads to gcc issuing all those warnings again.
So let's turn off PIE/PIC at the earliest possible moment, when we
declare KBUILD_CFLAGS so that cc-disable-warning picks it up too.
Also, we need the $(call cc-option ...) because -fno-PIE is supported
since gcc v3.4 and our lowest supported gcc version is 3.2 right now.

Debian started to build the gcc with -fPIE by default so the kernel
build ends before it starts properly with:
|kernel/bounds.c:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode
Also add to KBUILD_AFLAGS due to:
|gcc -Wp,-MD,arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/.note.o.d … -mfentry -DCC_USING_FENTRY … vdso/vdso32/note.S
|arch/x86/entry/vdso/vdso32/note.S:1:0: sorry, unimplemented: -mfentry isn’t supported for 32-bit in combination with -fpic
Tagging it stable so it is possible to compile recent stable kernels as
well.

Traditionally, we have always had warnings about uninitialized variables
enabled, as this is part of -Wall, and generally a good idea [1], but it
also always produced false positives, mainly because this is a variation
of the halting problem and provably impossible to get right in all cases
[2].
Various people have identified cases that are particularly bad for false
positives, and in commit e74fc973b6e5 ("Turn off -Wmaybe-uninitialized
when building with -Os"), I turned off the warning for any build that
was done with CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE. This drastically reduced the number
of false positive warnings in the default build but unfortunately had
the side effect of turning the warning off completely in 'allmodconfig'
builds, which in turn led to a lot of warnings (both actual bugs, and
remaining false positives) to go in unnoticed.
With commit 877417e6ffb9 ("Kbuild: change CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
definition") enabled the warning again for allmodconfig builds in v4.7
and in v4.8-rc1, I had finally managed to address all warnings I get in
an ARM allmodconfig build and most other maybe-uninitialized warnings
for ARM randconfig builds.
However, commit 6e8d666e9253 ("Disable "maybe-uninitialized" warning
globally") was merged at the same time and disabled it completely for
all configurations, because of false-positive warnings on x86 that I had
not addressed until then. This caused a lot of actual bugs to get
merged into mainline, and I sent several dozen patches for these during
the v4.9 development cycle. Most of these are actual bugs, some are for
correct code that is safe because it is only called under external
constraints that make it impossible to run into the case that gcc sees,
and in a few cases gcc is just stupid and finds something that can
obviously never happen.
I have now done a few thousand randconfig builds on x86 and collected
all patches that I needed to address every single warning I got (I can
provide the combined patch for the other warnings if anyone is
interested), so I hope we can get the warning back and let people catch
the actual bugs earlier.
This reverts the change to disable the warning completely and for now
brings it back at the "make W=1" level, so we can get it merged into
mainline without introducing false positives. A follow-up patch enables
it on all levels unless some configuration option turns it off because
of false-positives.

Move blackfin gptimers-example to samples and remove it from Documentation
Makefile. Update samples Kconfig and Makefile to build gptimers-example.
blackfin is the last CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC target in Documentation/Makefile.
Hence this patch also includes changes to remove CONFIG_BUILD_DOCSRC from
Makefile and lib/Kconfig.debug and updates VIDEO_PCI_SKELETON dependency
on BUILD_DOCSRC.
Documentation/Makefile is not deleted to avoid braking make htmldocs and
make distclean.
