Merge tag 'mips_4.21' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mips/linux

Pull MIPS updates from Paul Burton:
 "Here's the main MIPS pull for Linux 4.21. Core architecture changes
  include:

   - Syscall tables & definitions for unistd.h are now generated by
     scripts, providing greater consistency with other architectures &
     making it easier to add new syscalls.

   - Support for building kernels with no floating point support, upon
     which any userland attempting to use floating point instructions
     will receive a SIGILL. Mostly useful to shrink the kernel & as
     preparation for nanoMIPS support which does not yet include FP.

   - MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) vector register context is now exposed
     by ptrace via a new NT_MIPS_MSA regset.

   - ASIDs are now stored as 64b values even for MIPS32 kernels,
     expanding the ASID version field sufficiently that we don't need to
     worry about overflow & avoiding rare issues with reused ASIDs that
     have been observed in the wild.

   - The branch delay slot "emulation" page is now mapped without write
     permission for the user, preventing its use as a nice location for
     attacks to execute malicious code from.

   - Support for ioremap_prot(), primarily to allow gdb or other ptrace
     users the ability to view their tracee's memory using the same
     cache coherency attribute.

   - Optimizations to more cpu_has_* macros, allowing more to be
     compile-time constant where possible.

   - Enable building the whole kernel with UBSAN instrumentation.

   - Enable building the kernel with link-time dead code & data
     elimination.

  Platform specific changes include:

   - The Boston board gains a workaround for DMA prefetching issues with
     the EG20T Platform Controller Hub that it uses.

   - Cleanups to Cavium Octeon code removing about 20k lines of
     redundant code, mostly unused or duplicate register definitions in
     headers.

   - defconfig updates for the DECstation machines, including new
     defconfigs for r4k & 64b machines.

   - Further work on Loongson 3 support.

   - DMA fixes for SiByte machines"
