This is needed before we introduce the fence objects.
Otherwise this will be even more confusing. The plan is to use the following:
seqno: A 32-bit sequence number that may be passed in the fifo.
marker: Objects, carrying a seqno, that track fifo submission time. They
are used for fifo lag based throttling.
fence objects: Kernel space objects, possibly accessible from user-space and
carrying a 32-bit seqno together with signaled status.

When GMR2 is available, make sure we restrict the number of used GMR pages
to the limit indicated by the device.
This is done by failing a GMRID allocation if the total number of GMR pages
exceeds the limit.
As a result TTM will then start evicting buffers in GMR memory on a
LRU basis until the allocation succeeds.

Previously this was not done when any 3D resource was active,
since that meant disabling the fifo with all 3D state lost.
Now, if there are still 3D resources active, we use the svga hide feature.

Perform all command stream validation in a bounce buffer separate from the
fifo. This makes the fifo available to all validation-generated commands,
which would otherwise attempt to grab the fifo recursively, causing a
deadlock. This is in preparation for GMR2 and swappable surfaces.
Also maintain references to all surfaces in the command stream until the
command stream has been fired in order to avoid racing with surface
destruction taking place after validation but before submission.

Sometimes we want to know whether a buffer is busy and wait for it (bo_wait).
However, sometimes it would be more useful to be able to query whether
a buffer is busy and being either read or written, and wait until it's stopped
being either read or written. The point of this is to be able to avoid
unnecessary waiting, e.g. if a GPU has written something to a buffer and is now
reading that buffer, and a CPU wants to map that buffer for read, it needs to
only wait for the last write. If there were no write, there wouldn't be any
waiting needed.
This, or course, requires user space drivers to send read/write flags
with each relocation (like we have read/write domains in radeon, so we can
actually use those for something useful now).
Now how this patch works:
The read/write flags should passed to ttm_validate_buffer. TTM maintains
separate sync objects of the last read and write for each buffer, in addition
to the sync object of the last use of a buffer. ttm_bo_wait then operates
with one the sync objects.

According to the SFI specification irq number 0xFF means device has no
interrupt or interrupt attached via GPIO.
Currently, we don't handle this special case and set irq field in
*_board_info structs to 255. It leads to confusion in some drivers.
Accelerometer driver tries to register interrupt 255, fails and prints
"Cannot get IRQ" to dmesg.

This bug causes the IECSR register clear failure. In this case, the RETE
(retry error threshold exceeded) interrupt will be generated and cannot be
cleared. So the related ISR may be called persistently.
The RETE bit in IECSR is cleared by writing a 1 to it.

have irq.
The previous rtc-s3c had two issues related with its IRQ.
1. Users cannot open rtc multiple times because an open operation
calls request_irq on the same IRQ. (e.g., two user processes wants to
open and read RTC time from rtc-s3c at the same time)
2. If alarm is set and no one has the rtc opened with filesystem
(either the alarm is set by kernel/boot-loader or user set an alarm and
closed rtc dev file), the pending bit is not cleared and no further
interrupt is invoked. When the alarm is used by the system itself such
as a resume from suspend-to-RAM or other Low-power modes/idle, this is
a critical issue.
This patch mitigates these issues by calling request_irq at probe and
free_irq at remove.

Commit 79dfdaccd1d5 ("memcg: make oom_lock 0 and 1 based rather than
counter") tried to oom lock the hierarchy and roll back upon
encountering an already locked memcg.
The code is confused when it comes to detecting a locked memcg, though,
so it would fail and rollback after locking one memcg and encountering
an unlocked second one.
The result is that oom-locking hierarchies fails unconditionally and
that every oom killer invocation simply goes to sleep on the oom
waitqueue forever. The tasks practically hang forever without anyone
intervening, possibly holding locks that trip up unrelated tasks, too.

Replace/remove use of RIO v.1.2 registers/bits that are not
forward-compatible with newer versions of RapidIO specification.
RapidIO specification v.1.3 removed Write Port CSR, Doorbell CSR,
Mailbox CSR and Mailbox and Doorbell bits of the PEF CAR.
Use of removed (since RIO v.1.3) register bits affects users of
currently available 1.3 and 2.x compliant devices who may use not so
recent kernel versions.
Removing checks for unsupported bits makes corresponding routines
compatible with all versions of RapidIO specification. Therefore,
backporting makes stable kernel versions compliant with RIO v.1.3 and
later as well.

ZONE_CONGESTED is only cleared in kswapd, but pages can be freed in any
task. It's possible ZONE_CONGESTED isn't cleared in some cases:
1. the zone is already balanced just entering balance_pgdat() for
order-0 because concurrent tasks free memory. In this case, later
check will skip the zone as it's balanced so the flag isn't cleared.
2. high order balance fallbacks to order-0. quote from Mel: At the
end of balance_pgdat(), kswapd uses the following logic;
If reclaiming at high order {
for each zone {
if all_unreclaimable
skip
if watermark is not met
order = 0
loop again
/* watermark is met */
clear congested
}
}
i.e. it clears ZONE_CONGESTED if it the zone is balanced. if not,
it restarts balancing at order-0. However, if the higher zones are
balanced for order-0, kswapd will miss clearing ZONE_CONGESTED as
that only happens after a zone is shrunk. This can mean that
wait_iff_congested() stalls unnecessarily.
This patch makes kswapd clear ZONE_CONGESTED during its initial
highmem->dma scan for zones that are already balanced.
