This adds initial support for kernel 4.14 based on the patches for
kernel 4.9.
In the configuration I deactivated some of the new possible security
features like:
CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL
CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED
CONFIG_SOFTLOCKUP_DETECTOR
CONFIG_WARN_ALL_UNSEEDED_RANDOM
And these overlay FS options are also deactivated:
CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_INDEX
CONFIG_OVERLAY_FS_REDIRECT_DIR
I activated this:
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE
CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS
CONFIG_SLAB_MERGE_DEFAULT
CONFIG_WATCHDOG_HANDLE_BOOT_ENABLED
I am not sure if I did the porting correct for the following patches:
target/linux/generic/backport-4.14/020-backport_netfilter_rtcache.patch
target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/220-gc_sections.patch
target/linux/generic/hack-4.14/321-powerpc_crtsavres_prereq.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/305-mips_module_reloc.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/611-netfilter_match_bypass_default_table.patch
target/linux/generic/pending-4.14/680-NET-skip-GRO-for-foreign-MAC-addresses.patch

When memory is tight, modules may need to be loaded into vmalloc()
space. The code then has to generate jump trampolines which enable
relocations between vmalloc space and physical address space.
The code had a bug that was freeing these trampolines even when the
module was successfully loaded.

The mips reloc patch introduced new allocations which were done before
add_unformed_module but never freed them in case of an error. A new hook in
Linux 3.19 called module_arch_freeing_init can be used for freeing memory
which were allocated during this init phase.
The problem can be seen when trying to load a module (via busybox insmod)
when it was already loaded.
free -m
for i in `seq 1 100`; do
/sbin/insmod /lib/modules/*/ath9k.ko >& /dev/null
done
free -m
This simple loop would leak ~3.2 MB.

It currently does not seem to make a difference anymore, except by
increasing compressed kernel image size
