struct block_device lifecycle is defined by its inode (see fs/block_dev.c) -
block_device allocated first time we access /dev/loopXX and deallocated on
bdev_destroy_inode. When we create the device "losetup /dev/loopXX afile"
we want that block_device stay alive until we destroy the loop device
with "losetup -d".
But because we do not hold /dev/loopXX inode its counter goes 0, and
inode/bdev can be destroyed at any moment. Usually it happens at memory
pressure or when user drops inode cache (like in the test below). When later in
loop_clr_fd() we want to use bdev we have use-after-free error with following
stack:
[ Doing bdgrab/bput in loop_set_fd/loop_clr_fd is safe, because every
time we call loop_set_fd() we check that loop_device->lo_state is
Lo_unbound and set it to Lo_bound If somebody will try to set_fd again
it will get EBUSY. And if we try to loop_clr_fd() on unbound loop
device we'll get ENXIO.
loop_set_fd/loop_clr_fd (and any other loop ioctl) is called under
loop_device->lo_ctl_mutex. ]

Under some circumstances the PLLE needs to be retrained, in which case
access to the PMC registers is required. Fix this by passing a pointer

ARC: [kbuild] Allow platforms to disable LLSC for !SMP as well
Currently ARC_HAS_LLSC can be influenced by platform for SMP only using
ARC_HAS_COH_LLSC. For !SMP it defaults to "y".
It turns out that some customers can't support it all, even in UP.
So we change the semantics, and use a negative dependency ARC_CANT_LLSC.
Any platform (independent of SMP or !SMP) can select it to disable LLSC.

The existing uImage target always generates gzip compressed image which

So introduce seperate make targets:uImage.{bin,gz} with uncompressed

platform can select in it's Kconfig if it wishes gz to be default.
