This finally renames the thread_info field in task structure to stack, so that
the assumptions about this field are gone and archs have more freedom about
placing the thread_info structure.
Nonbroken archs which have a proper thread pointer can do the access to both
current thread and task structure via a single pointer.
It'll allow for a few more cleanups of the fork code, from which e.g. ia64
could benefit.

Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been
frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need
special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware
subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events
related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress. This
patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during
suspend and resume transitions. It also changes all of the
CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration
(for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal"
ones).

This patch provides a debugfs knob to turn kprobes on/off
o A new file /debug/kprobes/enabled indicates if kprobes is enabled or
not (default enabled)
o Echoing 0 to this file will disarm all installed probes
o Any new probe registration when disabled will register the probe but
not arm it. A message will be printed out in such a case.
o When a value 1 is echoed to the file, all probes (including ones
registered in the intervening period) will be enabled
o Unregistration will happen irrespective of whether probes are globally
enabled or not.
o Update Documentation/kprobes.txt to reflect these changes. While there
also update the doc to make it current.
We are also looking at providing sysrq key support to tie to the disabling
feature provided by this patch.

This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous
various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new
code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to
the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka
sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place)
arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to
arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's
declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through
this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

The console subsystem already has an idea of a boot console, using the
CON_BOOT flag. The implementation has some flaws though. The major
problem is that presence of a boot console makes register_console() ignore
any other console devices (unless explicitly specified on the kernel
command line).
This patch fixes the console selection code to *not* consider a boot
console a full-featured one, so the first non-boot console registering will
become the default console instead. This way the unregister call for the
boot console in the register_console() function actually triggers and the
handover from the boot console to the real console device works smoothly.
Added a printk for the handover, so you know which console device the
output goes to when the boot console stops printing messages.
The disable_early_printk() call is obsolete with that patch, explicitly
disabling the early console isn't needed any more as it works automagically
with that patch.
I've walked through the tree, dropped all disable_early_printk() instances
found below arch/ and tagged the consoles with CON_BOOT if needed. The
code is tested on x86, sh (thanks to Paul) and mips (thanks to Ralf).
Changes to last version: Rediffed against -rc3, adapted to mips cleanups by
Ralf, fixed "udbg-immortal" cmd line arg on powerpc.

powerpc_flash_init() implements a broken way of probing for flash
devices supported by the physmap_of driver. It finds all nodes in the
device tree with device_type=="rom" and instantiates of_platform
devices for them. This is fundamentally incompatible with the normal
and correct way of probing for of_platform_bus_probe(). Platforms
which relied on powerpc_flash_init()s behaviour (none are in-tree)
will have to update their platform probing code to correctly probe
busses containing flash devices.

This prepares for Ebony/440 support by creating an
arch/powerpc/platforms/44x directory. It is populated with a single
misc_44x.S file, into which is moved the 44x specific reset code from
head_44x.S (on the grounds that we should really stop clogging up the
head_* files with random asm helper routines).
At the same time, we disable the (empty save Kconfig and Makefile)
arch/powerpc/platforms/4xx directory from the arch/powerpc/platforms
Makefile. Contrary to the comment in
arch/powerpc/platforms/4xx/Makefile, attempting to build such an empty
Makefile will fail, thus breaking compile for the 44x platforms we're
about to add. It can go back in once we start porting some of the 40x
platforms (and thus it becomes non-empty).

MPIC U3/U4 MSI backend. Based on code from Segher, heavily hacked by me.
This only deals with MSI on U3/U4 MPICs, aka. CPC 9x5.
If we find a U3/U4 then we enable this backend, ie. take over the ppc_md
MSI hooks. We might need more elaborate logic in future to decide which
backend is enabled.
We need our own irq_chip so that we can do MSI masking/unmasking on
the device itself. We also need to mask explicitly on shutdown to make
sure we don't get bitten by lazy-disable semantics.

To support MSI on MPIC we need a way to reserve and allocate hardware irq

Implement MSI support via RTAS (RTAS = run-time firmware on pSeries
machines). For now we assumes that if the required RTAS tokens for
MSI are present, then we want to use the RTAS MSI routines.
When RTAS is managing MSIs for us, it will/may enable MSI on devices that
support it by default. This is contrary to the Linux model where a device
is in LSI mode until the driver requests MSIs.
To remedy this we add a pci_irq_fixup call, which disables MSI if they've
been assigned by firmware and the device also supports LSI. Devices that
don't support LSI at all will be left as is, drivers are still expected
to call pci_enable_msi() before using the device.
At the moment there is no pci_irq_fixup on pSeries, so we can just set it
unconditionally. If other platforms use the RTAS MSI backend they'll need
to check that still holds.

should detect this error and continue to use LSI.

For 32-bit systems, powerpc still relies on the 4level-fixup.h hack,
to pretend that the generic pagetable handling stuff is 3-levels
rather than 4. This patch removes this, instead using the newer
pgtable-nopmd.h to handle the elision of both the pud and pmd
pagetable levels (ppc32 pagetables are actually 2 levels).
This removes a little extraneous code, and makes it more easily

Adds the pSeries platform implementation for a new PCI API
which can be used to issue various types of PCI-E reset,
including PCI-E warm reset and PCI-E hot reset. This is needed

Currently our code to set up the data structures for a PCI host bridge
and create the mapping for its I/O window assumes that the window
starts at I/O port 0 on the PCI side. If this is not true, we can end
up with I/O port numbers in the resources for PCI devices which will
cause an oops if a driver tries to access them via inb/outb etc.,
because there is no mapping for the corresponding addresses.
Normally the I/O window starts at 0, but there are some situations on
partitioned machines with a hypervisor where the window may not start
at 0.
This fixes the problem by allocating space for the range from 0 to the
end of the I/O window. That is, hose->io_base_virt contains the
virtual address for I/O port 0 on the PCI bus, and thus the assumption
that hose->io_base_virt - pci_io_base is the offset between the
"global" I/O port numbers (those in the PCI device resources) and the
I/O port numbers on the PCI bus is maintained.
For PCI host bridges that are present at boot, we only map the portion
of that range that correspond to the bridge's I/O window. For bridges
added after boot we ioremap the range from 0 to the end of the I/O
window, for now; in fact hot-added bridges should be using
reserve_phb_iospace() and __ioremap_explicit (so they get sensible
global port numbers), but we don't have the infrastructure yet to do
that (basically a free_phb_iospace() routine plus appropriate
locking).
Interestingly, this makes the two arms of the if statement in
get_bus_io_range do almost exactly the same thing; that function could
now be simplified in a further patch.

I have never seen a use of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL. It is only supported by
SLAB.
I think its purpose was to have a callback after an object has been freed
to verify that the state is the constructor state again? The callback is
performed before each freeing of an object.
I would think that it is much easier to check the object state manually
before the free. That also places the check near the code object
manipulation of the object.
Also the SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL callback is only performed if the kernel was
compiled with SLAB debugging on. If there would be code in a constructor
handling SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL then it would have to be conditional on
SLAB_DEBUG otherwise it would just be dead code. But there is no such code
in the kernel. I think SLUB_DEBUG_INITIAL is too problematic to make real
use of, difficult to understand and there are easier ways to accomplish the
same effect (i.e. add debug code before kfree).
There is a related flag SLAB_CTOR_VERIFY that is frequently checked to be
clear in fs inode caches. Remove the pointless checks (they would even be
pointless without removeal of SLAB_DEBUG_INITIAL) from the fs constructors.
This is the last slab flag that SLUB did not support. Remove the check for
unimplemented flags from SLUB.

The current get_unmapped_area code calls the f_ops->get_unmapped_area or the
arch one (via the mm) only when MAP_FIXED is not passed. That makes it
impossible for archs to impose proper constraints on regions of the virtual
address space. To work around that, get_unmapped_area() then calls some
hugetlbfs specific hacks.
This cause several problems, among others:
- It makes it impossible for a driver or filesystem to do the same thing
that hugetlbfs does (for example, to allow a driver to use larger page sizes
to map external hardware) if that requires applying a constraint on the
addresses (constraining that mapping in certain regions and other mappings
out of those regions).
- Some archs like arm, mips, sparc, sparc64, sh and sh64 already want
MAP_FIXED to be passed down in order to deal with aliasing issues. The code
is there to handle it... but is never called.
This series of patches moves the logic to handle MAP_FIXED down to the various
arch/driver get_unmapped_area() implementations, and then changes the generic
code to always call them. The hugetlbfs hacks then disappear from the generic
code.
Since I need to do some special 64K pages mappings for SPEs on cell, I need to
work around the first problem at least. I have further patches thus
implementing a "slices" layer that handles multiple page sizes through slices
of the address space for use by hugetlbfs, the SPE code, and possibly others,
but it requires that serie of patches first/
There is still a potential (but not practical) issue due to the fact that
filesystems/drivers implemeting g_u_a will effectively bypass all arch checks.
This is not an issue in practice as the only filesystems/drivers using that
hook are doing so for arch specific purposes in the first place.
There is also a problem with mremap that will completely bypass all arch
checks. I'll try to address that separately, I'm not 100% certain yet how,
possibly by making it not work when the vma has a file whose f_ops has a
get_unmapped_area callback, and by making it use is_hugepage_only_range()
before expanding into a new area.
Also, I want to turn is_hugepage_only_range() into a more generic
is_normal_page_range() as that's really what it will end up meaning when used
in stack grow, brk grow and mremap.
None of the above "issues" however are introduced by this patch, they are
already there, so I think the patch can go ini for 2.6.22.
This patch:
Handle MAP_FIXED in powerpc's arch_get_unmapped_area() in all 3
implementations of it.

It is not necessary to tell the slab allocators to align to a cacheline
if an explicit alignment was already specified. It is rather confusing
to specify multiple alignments.
Make sure that the call sites only use one form of alignment.

This patch was recently posted to lkml and acked by Pekka.
The flag SLAB_MUST_HWCACHE_ALIGN is
1. Never checked by SLAB at all.
2. A duplicate of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN for SLUB
3. Fulfills the role of SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN for SLOB.
The only remaining use is in sparc64 and ppc64 and their use there
reflects some earlier role that the slab flag once may have had. If
its specified then SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN is also specified.
The flag is confusing, inconsistent and has no purpose.
Remove it.

PowerPC uses the slab allocator to manage the lowest level of the page
table. In high cpu configurations we also use the page struct to split the
page table lock. Disallow the selection of SLUB for that case.

At present, the serial core always allows setserial in userspace to change the
port address, irq and base clock of any serial port. That makes sense for
legacy ISA ports, but not for (say) embedded ns16550 compatible serial ports
at peculiar addresses. In these cases, the kernel code configuring the ports
must know exactly where they are, and their clocking arrangements (which can
be unusual on embedded boards). It doesn't make sense for userspace to change
these settings.
Therefore, this patch defines a UPF_FIXED_PORT flag for the uart_port
structure. If this flag is set when the serial port is configured, any
attempts to alter the port's type, io address, irq or base clock with
setserial are ignored.
In addition this patch uses the new flag for on-chip serial ports probed in
arch/powerpc/kernel/legacy_serial.c, and for other hard-wired serial ports
probed by drivers/serial/of_serial.c.

Implement deep-sleep on MPC52xx.
SDRAM is put into self-refresh with help of SRAM code
(alternatives would be code in FLASH, I-cache).
Interrupt code must also not be in SDRAM, so put it
in I-cache.
MPC52xx core is static, so contents will remain intact even
with clocks turned off.
