As per chapter 15 "Errata: Issue of Out-of-order in loongson"[1] to work
around the Loongson 2F erratum we need to do:
"When switching from user mode to kernel mode, you should flush the
branch target history such as BTB and RAS."

This is a follow on to the vdso patch.
Since all processes now have signal trampolines permanently mapped, we
can use those instead of putting the trampoline on the stack and
invalidating the corresponding icache across all CPUs. We also get rid
of a bunch of ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR code.
[Ralf: GDB 7.1 which has the necessary modifications to allow backtracing
over signal frames will supposedly be released tomorrow. The old signal
frame format obsoleted by this patch exists in two variations, for sane
processors and for those requiring ICACHE_REFILLS_WORKAROUND_WAR. So
there was never a GDB which did support backtracing over signal frames
on all MIPS systems. This convinved me this series should be applied and
pushed upstream as soon as possible.]

This is a preliminary patch to add a vdso to all user processes. Still
missing are ELF headers and .eh_frame information. But it is enough to
allow us to move signal trampolines off of the stack. Note that emulation
of branch delay slots in the FPU emulator still requires the stack.
We allocate a single page (the vdso) and write all possible signal
trampolines into it. The stack is moved down by one page and the vdso is
mapped into this space.

The SSB PCIcore code reused the IO resource fixup code from the original
2.4.x Broadcom patch for BCM47xx based devices, which was a quick hack
for doing PCI IO resource configuration back then (the boot loader
doesn't configure PCI devices on this platform).
However, this code is no longer necessary since the kernel now can do
PCI resource management fine all by itself, so remove the old code.
When removing the code, it becomes obvious that the mem_offset setting
in the PCIcore driver was wrong, however this was masked by the fixup
code before, except in a few cases involving yenta_socket. For BCM47xx,
the correct offset is 0, and since this is the only device using PCIcore
in host mode, the offset can simply be removed unconditionally.

On AR7, we already redefine PHYS_OFFSET to match the system specifities, it
is however not sufficient when unsing dma_{map,unmap}_single, specifically
in the ethernet driver, we must also adjust CAC_ADDR and UNCAC_ADDR for DMA
to work correctly. This patch fixes the following issue, seen in cpmac_open:

Like x86 did in arch/x86/kernel/{process_32.c,process_64.c}, also don't
trace irqsoff for idle.
If there's no useful work to be done, we don't care about the irqsoff
duration. If we trace the idle process, the max duration of irqsoff will
be the idle time and make the irqsoff tracer useless.

Arnaud Giersch reports that NFSv4 locking is broken when we hold a
delegation since commit 8e469ebd6dc32cbaf620e134d79f740bf0ebab79 (NFSv4:
Don't allow posix locking against servers that don't support it).
According to Arnaud, the lock succeeds the first time he opens the file
(since we cannot do a delegated open) but then fails after we start using
delegated opens.
The following patch fixes it by ensuring that locking behaviour is
governed by a per-filesystem capability flag that is initially set, but
gets cleared if the server ever returns an OPEN without the
NFS4_OPEN_RESULT_LOCKTYPE_POSIX flag being set.

usb-midi causes sometimes Oops at snd_usbmidi_output_drain() after
disconnection. This is due to the access to the endpoints which have
been already released at disconnection while the files are still alive.
This patch fixes the problem by checking disconnection state at
snd_usbmidi_output_drain() and by releasing urbs but keeping the
endpoint instances until really all freed.

A userspace client got to see uninitialized stack-allocated memory if it
specified an _IOC_READ type of ioctl and an argument size larger than
expected by firewire-core's ioctl handlers (but not larger than the
core's union ioctl_arg).
Fix this by clearing the requested buffer size to zero, but only at _IOR
ioctls. This way, there is almost no runtime penalty to legitimate
ioctls. The only legitimate _IOR is FW_CDEV_IOC_GET_CYCLE_TIMER with 12
or 16 bytes to memset.
[Another way to fix this would be strict checking of argument size (and
possibly direction) vs. command number. However, we then need a lookup
table, and we need to allow for slight size deviations in case of 32bit
userland on 64bit kernel.]

The definition of struct fw_cdev_iso_packet seems to imply that the
header_length must be quadlet-aligned, and in fact, specifying an
unaligned header has never really worked when using multiple packet
structures, because the position of the next control word is computed by
rounding the header_length _down_, so the last one to three bytes of the
header would overlap the next control word.
To avoid this problem, check that the header length is properly aligned.

The current algorithm will sometimes "detect" that
more chains are enabled than are really present in
the device because, for unknown reasons, the ucode
sends up all-zeroes signal values.
The simplest way of solving this is to restrict the
active chains mask to the chains we know are really
present on the device.
This fixes a bug with some devices where, since sometimes
more chains are enabled than really present, the system would hang.

radix_tree_tag_get() is not safe to use concurrently with radix_tree_tag_set()
or radix_tree_tag_clear(). The problem is that the double tag_get() in
radix_tree_tag_get():
if (!tag_get(node, tag, offset))
saw_unset_tag = 1;
if (height == 1) {
int ret = tag_get(node, tag, offset);
may see the value change due to the action of set/clear. RCU is no protection
against this as no pointers are being changed, no nodes are being replaced
according to a COW protocol - set/clear alter the node directly.
The documentation in linux/radix-tree.h, however, says that
radix_tree_tag_get() is an exception to the rule that "any function modifying
the tree or tags (...) must exclude other modifications, and exclude any
functions reading the tree".
The problem is that the next statement in radix_tree_tag_get() checks that the
tag doesn't vary over time:
BUG_ON(ret && saw_unset_tag);
This has been seen happening in FS-Cache:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-cachefs/2010-April/msg00013.html
To this end, remove the BUG_ON() from radix_tree_tag_get() and note in various
comments that the value of the tag may change whilst the RCU read lock is held,
and thus that the return value of radix_tree_tag_get() may not be relied upon
unless radix_tree_tag_set/clear() and radix_tree_delete() are excluded from
running concurrently with it.

As suggested by Linus, fix up kmem_ptr_validate() to handle non-kernel pointers
more graciously. The patch changes kmem_ptr_validate() to use the newly
introduced kern_ptr_validate() helper to check that a pointer is a valid kernel
pointer before we attempt to convert it into a 'struct page'.
