Pull vfs updates from Al Viro:
"The first vfs pile, with deep apologies for being very late in this
window.
Assorted cleanups and fixes, plus a large preparatory part of iov_iter
work. There's a lot more of that, but it'll probably go into the next
merge window - it *does* shape up nicely, removes a lot of
boilerplate, gets rid of locking inconsistencie between aio_write and
splice_write and I hope to get Kent's direct-io rewrite merged into
the same queue, but some of the stuff after this point is having
(mostly trivial) conflicts with the things already merged into
mainline and with some I want more testing.
This one passes LTP and xfstests without regressions, in addition to
usual beating. BTW, readahead02 in ltp syscalls testsuite has started
giving failures since "mm/readahead.c: fix readahead failure for
memoryless NUMA nodes and limit readahead pages" - might be a false
positive, might be a real regression..."

Freescale updates from Scott. Mostly support for critical

PCI suspend/resume work and misc bits.
|

Our netfilter options are stale and important things like masquerading
are no longer enabled. Instead of trying to keep up with any updates,
set CONFIG_NETFILTER_ADVANCED=n on ppc64* and pseries* defconfigs.
This enables the most common netfilter modules for us.
While here, enable the network bridge module which is heavily used in
KVM setups.

This processor/memory module was mostly used on ATCA blades and
before that, on cPCI blades. It wasn't really user friendly, with
custom non u-boot bootloaders (powerboot/motload) and no real way
to recover corrupted boot flash (which was a common problem).
As such, it had its day back before the big ppc --> powerpc move
to device trees, and that was largely through commercial BSPs that
started to dry up around 2007.
Systems using one were largely in a "deploy and sustain" mode,
so interest in upgrading to new kernels in the field was nil.
Also, requiring 50A, 48V power supplies and a 2'x2'x2' ATCA
chassis largely rules out any hobbyist/enthusiast interest.
The point of all this, is that we might as well delete the in
kernel files relating to this platform. No point in continuing
to build it via walking the defconfigs or via linux-next testing.

Add support for the Motorola/Emerson MVME5100 Single Board Computer.
The MVME5100 is a 6U form factor VME64 computer with:
- A single MPC7410 or MPC750 CPU
- A HAWK Processor Host Bridge (CPU to PCI) and
MultiProcessor Interrupt Controller (MPIC)
- Up to 500Mb of onboard memory
- A M48T37 Real Time Clock (RTC) and Non-Volatile Memory chip
- Two 16550 compatible UARTS
- Two Intel E100 Fast Ethernets
- Two PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) Slots
- PPCBug Firmware
The HAWK PHB/MPIC is compatible with the MPC10x devices.
There is no onboard disk support. This is usually provided by installing a PMC
in first PMC slot.
This patch revives the board support, it was present in early 2.6
series kernels. The board support in those days was by Matt Porter of
MontaVista Software.
CSC Australia has around 31 of these boards in service. The kernel in use
for the boards is based on 2.6.31. The boards are operated without disks
from a file server.
This patch is based on linux-3.13-rc2 and has been boot tested.
Only boards with 512 Mb of memory are known to work.

I got the following error on my t4240qds board.
ntpd[2713]: unhandled signal 4 at 0fd5b448 nip 0fd5b448 lr 0fd5b424 code 30001
The root cause is that the float point instruction 'fsqrt' is used.
But this instruction is not implemented on e6500 core. Even this
does seem a gcc bug, I would like to enable the math emulation
in the kernel to workaround this kind of issue.

- Support for Doorbell interrupts on Power8 (kind of fast

- Support for saving/restoring & context switching the PPR (Processor

- DAWR (new watchpoint facility) support on Power8 by Michael Neuling
- Ability to change the DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) which
controls cache prefetching on a running process via ptrace by
Alexey Kardashevskiy
- Support for context switching the TAR register on Power8 (new

userspace perf event interrupt facility which is yet to be enabled)
by Ian Munsie.
- Improve preservation of the CFAR register (which captures the
origin of a branch) on various exception conditions by Paulus.
- Move the Bestcomm DMA driver from arch powerpc to drivers/dma where
it belongs by Philippe De Muyter
- Support for Transactional Memory on Power8 by Michael Neuling
