Pull parisc fixes from Helge Deller:
 "On parisc we were still seeing occasional random segmentation faults
  and memory corruption on SMP machines. Dave Anglin then looked again
  at the TLB related code and found two issues in the PCI DMA and
  generic TLB flush functions.

  Then, in our startup code we had some timing of the cache and TLB
  functions to calculate a threshold when to use a complete TLB/cache
  flush or just to flush a specific range. This code produced a race
  with newly started CPUs and thus lead to occasional kernel crashes
  (due to stale TLB/cache entries). The patch by Dave fixes this issue
  by flushing the local caches before starting secondary CPUs and by
  removing the race.

  The last problem fixed by this series is that we quite often suffered
  from hung tasks and self-detected stalls on the CPUs. It was somehow
  clear that this was related to the (in v4.7) newly introduced cr16
  clocksource and the own implementation of sched_clock(). I replaced
  the open-coded sched_clock() function and switched to the generic
  sched_clock() implementation which seems to have fixed this isse as
  well.

  All patches have been sucessfully tested on a variety of machines,
  including our debian buildd servers.

  All patches (beside the small pr_cont fix) are tagged for stable
  releases"
