      dma: of: Remove check on always true condition · 8552bb4f

      Both of_dma_nbcells field of the of_dma_controller and the args_count field of
      the dma_spec are initialized by parsing the #dma-cells attribute of their device
      tree node. So if the device tree nodes of a DMA controller and the dma_spec
      match this means that of_dma_nbcells and args_count will also match. So the
      second test in the of_dma_find_controller loop is redundant because given the
      first test yields true the second test will also yield true. So we can safely
      remove the test whether of_dma_nbcells matches args_count. Since this was the
      last user of the of_dma_nbcells field we can remove it altogether.

      dma: of: Remove restriction that #dma-cells can't be 0 · ff0e0f4f

      There is no sensible reason why #dma-cells shouldn't be allowed to be 0. It is
      completely up to the DMA controller how many additional parameters, besides the
      phandle, it needs to identify a channel. E.g. for DMA controller with only one
      channel or for DMA controllers which don't have a restriction on which channel
      can be used for which peripheral it completely legitimate to not require any
      additional parameters.
      
      Also fixes the following warning:
      	drivers/dma/of-dma.c: In function 'of_dma_controller_register':
      	drivers/dma/of-dma.c:67:7: warning: 'nbcells' may be used uninitialized in this function

      Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
       "This contains 4 fixes.
      
        The first two fix the case where full RCU debugging is enabled,
        enabling function tracing causes a live lock of the system.  This is
        due to the added debug checks in rcu_dereference_raw() that is used by
        the function tracer.  These checks are also traced by the function
        tracer as well as cause enough overhead to the function tracer to slow
        down the system enough that the time to finish an interrupt can take
        longer than when the next interrupt is triggered, causing a live lock
        from the timer interrupt.
      
        Talking this over with Paul McKenney, we came up with a fix that adds
        a new rcu_dereference_raw_notrace() that does not perform these added
        checks, and let the function tracer use that.
      
        The third commit fixes a failed compile when branch tracing is
        enabled, due to the conversion of the trace_test_buffer() selftest
        that the branch trace wasn't converted for.
      
        The forth patch fixes a bug caught by the RCU lockdep code where a
        rcu_read_lock() is performed when rcu is disabled (either going to or
        from idle, or user space).  This happened on the irqsoff tracer as it
        calls task_uid().  The fix here was to use current_uid() when possible
        that doesn't use rcu locking.  Which luckily, is always used when
        irqsoff calls this code."
