Openrisc is the only architecture not mapping ioremap as uncached,
which has been the default since the Linux 2.6.x days.  Switch it
over to implement uncached semantics by default.

Pull force_sig() argument change from Eric Biederman:
 "A source of error over the years has been that force_sig has taken a
  task parameter when it is only safe to use force_sig with the current
  task.

  The force_sig function is built for delivering synchronous signals
  such as SIGSEGV where the userspace application caused a synchronous
  fault (such as a page fault) and the kernel responded with a signal.

  Because the name force_sig does not make this clear, and because the
  force_sig takes a task parameter the function force_sig has been
  abused for sending other kinds of signals over the years. Slowly those
  have been fixed when the oopses have been tracked down.

  This set of changes fixes the remaining abusers of force_sig and
  carefully rips out the task parameter from force_sig and friends
  making this kind of error almost impossible in the future"

As synchronous exceptions really only make sense against the current
task (otherwise how are you synchronous) remove the task parameter
from from force_sig_fault to make it explicit that is what is going
on.

The two known exceptions that deliver a synchronous exception to a
stopped ptraced task have already been changed to
force_sig_fault_to_task.

The callers have been changed with the following emacs regular expression
(with obvious variations on the architectures that take more arguments)
to avoid typos:

force_sig_fault[(]\([^,]+\)[,]\([^,]+\)[,]\([^,]+\)[,]\W+current[)]
-&gt;
force_sig_fault(\1,\2,\3)

Update the calls of force_sig_fault that pass in a variable that is
set to current earlier to explicitly use current.

This is to make the next change that removes the task parameter
from force_sig_fault easier to verify.

  Christoph Hellwig writes:

     This is a series doing two somewhat interwinded things. It improves
     the asm-generic nommu uaccess helper to optionally be entirely
     generic and not require any arch helpers for the actual uaccess.
     For the generic uaccess.h to actually be generically useful I also
     had to kill off the mess we made of &lt;asm/segment.h&gt;, which really
     shouldn't exist on most architectures"

<content type='text'>
Patch series "provide a generic free_initmem implementation", v2.

Many architectures implement free_initmem() in exactly the same or very
similar way: they wrap the call to free_initmem_default() with sometimes
different 'poison' parameter.

These patches switch those architectures to use a generic implementation
that does free_initmem_default(POISON_FREE_INITMEM).

This was inspired by Christoph's patches for free_initrd_mem [1] and I
shamelessly copied changelog entries from his patches :)

[1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190213174621.29297-1-hch@lst.de/

This patch (of 2):

For most architectures free_initmem just a wrapper for the same
free_initmem_default(-1) call.  Provide that as a generic implementation
marked __weak.

common code does. Remove all the empty or almost empty versions of it,
including the asm-generic one.
