Current imc-pmu code triggers a WARNING with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP

The above warning triggered because the current imc-pmu code uses mutex
lock in interrupt disabled sections. The function mutex_lock()
internally calls __might_resched(), which will check if IRQs are
disabled and in case IRQs are disabled, it will trigger the warning.

Fix the issue by changing the mutex lock to spinlock.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:

 - Add powerpc qspinlock implementation optimised for large system
   scalability and paravirt. See the merge message for more details

 - Enable objtool to be built on powerpc to generate mcount locations

 - Use a temporary mm for code patching with the Radix MMU, so the
   writable mapping is restricted to the patching CPU

 - Add an option to build the 64-bit big-endian kernel with the ELFv2
   ABI

 - Sanitise user registers on interrupt entry on 64-bit Book3S

 - Many other small features and fixes

Pull random number generator updates from Jason Donenfeld:

 - Replace prandom_u32_max() and various open-coded variants of it,
   there is now a new family of functions that uses fast rejection
   sampling to choose properly uniformly random numbers within an
   interval:

       get_random_u32_below(ceil) - [0, ceil)
       get_random_u32_above(floor) - (floor, U32_MAX]
       get_random_u32_inclusive(floor, ceil) - [floor, ceil]

   Coccinelle was used to convert all current users of
   prandom_u32_max(), as well as many open-coded patterns, resulting in
   improvements throughout the tree.

   I'll have a "late" 6.1-rc1 pull for you that removes the now unused
   prandom_u32_max() function, just in case any other trees add a new
   use case of it that needs to converted. According to linux-next,
   there may be two trivial cases of prandom_u32_max() reintroductions
   that are fixable with a 's/.../.../'. So I'll have for you a final
   conversion patch doing that alongside the removal patch during the
   second week.

   This is a treewide change that touches many files throughout.

 - More consistent use of get_random_canary().

 - Updates to comments, documentation, tests, headers, and
   simplification in configuration.

 - The arch_get_random*_early() abstraction was only used by arm64 and
   wasn't entirely useful, so this has been replaced by code that works
   in all relevant contexts.

 - The kernel will use and manage random seeds in non-volatile EFI
   variables, refreshing a variable with a fresh seed when the RNG is
   initialized. The RNG GUID namespace is then hidden from efivarfs to
   prevent accidental leakage.

   These changes are split into random.c infrastructure code used in the
   EFI subsystem, in this pull request, and related support inside of
   EFISTUB, in Ard's EFI tree. These are co-dependent for full
   functionality, but the order of merging doesn't matter.

 - Part of the infrastructure added for the EFI support is also used for
   an improvement to the way vsprintf initializes its siphash key,
   replacing an sleep loop wart.

 - The hardware RNG framework now always calls its correct random.c
   input function, add_hwgenerator_randomness(), rather than sometimes
   going through helpers better suited for other cases.

 - The add_latent_entropy() function has long been called from the fork
   handler, but is a no-op when the latent entropy gcc plugin isn't
   used, which is fine for the purposes of latent entropy.

   But it was missing out on the cycle counter that was also being mixed
   in beside the latent entropy variable. So now, if the latent entropy
   gcc plugin isn't enabled, add_latent_entropy() will expand to a call
   to add_device_randomness(NULL, 0), which adds a cycle counter,
   without the absent latent entropy variable.

 - The RNG is now reseeded from a delayed worker, rather than on demand
   when used. Always running from a worker allows it to make use of the
   CPU RNG on platforms like S390x, whose instructions are too slow to
   do so from interrupts. It also has the effect of adding in new inputs
   more frequently with more regularity, amounting to a long term
   transcript of random values. Plus, it helps a bit with the upcoming
   vDSO implementation (which isn't yet ready for 6.2).

 - The jitter entropy algorithm now tries to execute on many different
   CPUs, round-robining, in hopes of hitting even more memory latencies
   and other unpredictable effects. It also will mix in a cycle counter
   when the entropy timer fires, in addition to being mixed in from the
   main loop, to account more explicitly for fluctuations in that timer
   firing. And the state it touches is now kept within the same cache
   line, so that it's assured that the different execution contexts will
   cause latencies.

   - Advertise range prefetch instruction
   - Advertise CSSC ("Common Short Sequence Compression") scalar
     instructions, adding things like min, max, abs, popcount
   - Enable DIT (Data Independent Timing) when running in the kernel
   - More conversion of system register fields over to the generated
     header

  CPU misfeatures:
   - Workaround for Cortex-A715 erratum #2645198

  Dynamic SCS:
   - Support for dynamic shadow call stacks to allow switching at
     runtime between Clang's SCS implementation and the CPU's pointer
     authentication feature when it is supported (complete with scary
     DWARF parser!)

  Tracing and debug:
   - Remove static ftrace in favour of, err, dynamic ftrace!
   - Seperate 'struct ftrace_regs' from 'struct pt_regs' in core ftrace
     and existing arch code
   - Introduce and implement FTRACE_WITH_ARGS on arm64 to replace the
     old FTRACE_WITH_REGS
   - Extend 'crashkernel=' parameter with default value and fallback to
     placement above 4G physical if initial (low) allocation fails

  SVE:
   - Optimisation to avoid disabling SVE unconditionally on syscall
     entry and just zeroing the non-shared state on return instead

  Exceptions:
   - Rework of undefined instruction handling to avoid serialisation on
     global lock (this includes emulation of user accesses to the ID
     registers)

  Perf and PMU:
   - Support for TLP filters in Hisilicon's PCIe PMU device
   - Support for the DDR PMU present in Amlogic Meson G12 SoCs
   - Support for the terribly-named "CoreSight PMU" architecture from
     Arm (and Nvidia's implementation of said architecture)

  Misc:
   - Tighten up our boot protocol for systems with memory above 52 bits
     physical
   - Const-ify static keys to satisty jump label asm constraints
   - Trivial FFA driver cleanups in preparation for v1.1 support
   - Export the kernel_neon_* APIs as GPL symbols
   - Harden our instruction generation routines against instrumentation
   - A bunch of robustness improvements to our arch-specific selftests
   - Minor cleanups and fixes all over (kbuild, kprobes, kfence, PMU, ...)"

rtas_call() has a complex calling convention, non-standard return
values, and many users. Add kernel-doc for it and remove the less
structured commentary from rtas.h.

At boot time, the FDT is parsed to compute the number of CPUs.
In addition count the number of CPU nodes and export it.

This is useful when building the FDT for a kexeced kernel since we need to
take in account the CPU node added since the boot time during CPU hotplug
operations.
