      x86: simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig all.config · 6840999b
      Sam Ravnborg authored
      
      
      Simplify "make ARCH=x86" and fix kconfig so we again can set 64BIT in
      all.config.
      
      For a fix the diffstat is nice:
       6 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 36 deletions(-)
      
      The patch reverts these commits:
       - 0f855aa6 ("kconfig: add helper to set
         config symbol from environment variable")
       - 2a113281 ("kconfig: use $K64BIT to
         set 64BIT with all*config targets")
      
      Roman Zippel pointed out that kconfig supported string compares so
      the additional complexity introduced by the above two patches were
      not needed.
      
      With this patch we have following behaviour:
      
        # make {allno,allyes,allmod,rand}config [ARCH=...]
        option \ host arch      | 32bit         | 64bit
        =====================================================
        ./.                     | 32bit         | 64bit
        ARCH=x86                | 32bit         | 32bit
        ARCH=i386               | 32bit         | 32bit
        ARCH=x86_64             | 64bit         | 64bit
      
      The general rule are that ARCH= and native architecture takes
      precedence over the configuration.
      
      So make ARCH=i386 [whatever] will always build a 32-bit kernel
      no matter what the configuration says.  The configuration will
      be updated to 32-bit if it was configured to 64-bit and the
      other way around.
      
      This behaviour is consistent with previous behaviour so no
      suprises here.
      
      make ARCH=x86 will per default result in a 32-bit kernel but as
      the only ARCH= value x86 allow the user to select between 32-bit
      and 64-bit using menuconfig.

      SELinux: return EOPNOTSUPP not ENOTSUPP · ec418781
      Eric Paris authored
      
      
      ENOTSUPP is not a valid error code in the kernel (it is defined in some
      NFS internal error codes and has been improperly used other places).  In
      the !CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX case though it is possible that we could
      return this from selinux_audit_rule_init().  This patch just returns the
      userspace valid EOPNOTSUPP.

      dirty page balancing: Get rid of broken unmapped_ratio logic · 8c086340
      Linus Torvalds authored
      
      
      This code harks back to the days when we didn't count dirty mapped
      pages, which led us to try to balance the number of dirty unmapped pages
      by how much unmapped memory there was in the system.
      
      That makes no sense any more, since now the dirty counts include the
      mapped pages.  Not to mention that the math doesn't work with HIGHMEM
      machines anyway, and causes the unmapped_ratio to potentially turn
      negative (which we do catch thanks to clamping it at a minimum value,
      but I mention that as an indication of how broken the code is).
      
      The code also was written at a time when the default dirty ratio was
      much larger, and the unmapped_ratio logic effectively capped that large
      dirty ratio a bit.  Again, we've since lowered the dirty ratio rather
      aggressively, further lessening the point of that code.
