      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard...

      RAS: Add a Corrected Errors Collector · 011d8261
      Borislav Petkov authored and Ingo Molnar's avatar Ingo Molnar committed
      
      Introduce a simple data structure for collecting correctable errors
      along with accessors. More detailed description in the code itself.
      
      The error decoding is done with the decoding chain now and
      mce_first_notifier() gets to see the error first and the CEC decides
      whether to log it and then the rest of the chain doesn't hear about it -
      basically the main reason for the CE collector - or to continue running
      the notifiers.
      
      When the CEC hits the action threshold, it will try to soft-offine the
      page containing the ECC and then the whole decoding chain gets to see
      the error.
