ag5evm implements a backlight control, using an I2C controller, therefore
it needs CONFIG_I2C to fix this make failure

With this patch applied the AG5EVM ethernet is handled
through one of the chained sh73a0 PINT interrupt controllers.

Implement GPIO hotplugging via TMIO_MMC_HAS_COLD_CD for
AG5EVM SDHI0. This is possible now when INTCA is used for
IRQ triggering on sh73a0. Without INTCA IRQ support we are
left with the GIC hardware block that does not support
dealing with active low interrupt sources.

Improve IRQ triggering support by making use of the macro
INTC_IRQ_PINS_32() for INTCA on sh73a0. Unfortunately it
is not as easy as just using the macro as-is, we need to
do mask and unmaks in the GIC but configure other bits
and ack in INTCA. Update GPIO IRQ mappings while at it.

This patch adds support for sh73a0 GPIO IRQs by making use
of the PFC GPIO IRQ feature. Only IRQ pins are supported
at this time. In the future when PINT interrupts also are
supported properly we can easily extend the table with such
information. Also, the sh73a0 is currently making use of
the GIC for external interrupt which is rather unflexible
when it comes to triggering configuration at this point.

Always use CS0 shadow area for NOR flash instead of regular CS0
memory area on ap4evb.
When booting from CS0 NOR Flash the regular CS0 memory area is
available, but when booting via USB the MASK ROM gets mapped to
0x0 which gets in the way for the NOR Flash. Always using CS0
shadow area works well for both NOR Flash boot and USB boot.

port failed to initialize
The "struct rio_mport" contains a member of master port I/O memory
resource structure "struct resource iores". This resource will be read
from device tree and be used for rapidio R/W transaction memory space.
Rapidio requests the port I/O memory resource under the root resource
"iomem_resource".
struct rio_mport *port;
port = kzalloc(sizeof(struct rio_mport), GFP_KERNEL);
request_resource(&iomem_resource, &port->iores);
When port failed to initialize, allocated "rio_mport" structure memory
will be freed, and the port I/O memory resource structure pointer
"&port->iores" will be invalid. If other requests resource under
"iomem_resource", "&port->iores" node may be operated in the child
resources list and this will cause the system to crash.
So the requested port I/O memory resource should be released before
freeing allocated "rio_mport" structure.

"page" may have changed to point to the next hugepage after the loop
completed, The references have been taken on the head page, so the
put_page must happen there too.
This is a longstanding issue pre-thp inclusion.
It's totally unclear how these page_cache_add_speculative and
pte_val(pte) != pte_val(*ptep) checks are necessary across all the
powerpc gup_fast code, when x86 doesn't need any of that: there's no way
the page can be freed with irq disabled so we're guaranteed the
atomic_inc will happen on a page with page_count > 0 (so not needing the
speculative check).
The pte check is also meaningless on x86: no need to rollback on x86 if
the pte changed, because the pte can still change a CPU tick after the
check succeeded and it won't be rolled back in that case. The important
thing is we got a reference on a valid page that was mapped there a CPU
tick ago. So not knowing the soft tlb refill code of ppc64 in great
detail I'm not removing the "speculative" page_count increase and the
pte checks across all the code, but unless there's a strong reason for
it they should be later cleaned up too.
If a pte can change from huge to non-huge (like it could happen with
THP) passing a pte_t *ptep to gup_hugepte() would also require to repeat
the is_hugepd in gup_hugepte(), but that shouldn't happen with hugetlbfs
only so I'm not altering that.

This part of gup_fast doesn't seem capable of handling hugetlbfs ptes,
those should be handled by gup_hugepd only, so these checks are
superfluous.
Plus if this wasn't a noop, it would have oopsed because, the insistence
of using the speculative refcounting would trigger a VM_BUG_ON if a tail
page was encountered in the page_cache_get_speculative().

Michel while working on the working set estimation code, noticed that
calling get_page_unless_zero() on a random pfn_to_page(random_pfn)
wasn't safe, if the pfn ended up being a tail page of a transparent
hugepage under splitting by __split_huge_page_refcount().
He then found the problem could also theoretically materialize with
page_cache_get_speculative() during the speculative radix tree lookups
that uses get_page_unless_zero() in SMP if the radix tree page is freed
and reallocated and get_user_pages is called on it before
page_cache_get_speculative has a chance to call get_page_unless_zero().
So the best way to fix the problem is to keep page_tail->_count zero at
all times. This will guarantee that get_page_unless_zero() can never
succeed on any tail page. page_tail->_mapcount is guaranteed zero and
is unused for all tail pages of a compound page, so we can simply
account the tail page references there and transfer them to
tail_page->_count in __split_huge_page_refcount() (in addition to the
head_page->_mapcount).
While debugging this s/_count/_mapcount/ change I also noticed get_page is
called by direct-io.c on pages returned by get_user_pages. That wasn't
entirely safe because the two atomic_inc in get_page weren't atomic. As
opposed to other get_user_page users like secondary-MMU page fault to
establish the shadow pagetables would never call any superflous get_page
after get_user_page returns. It's safer to make get_page universally safe
for tail pages and to use get_page_foll() within follow_page (inside
get_user_pages()). get_page_foll() is safe to do the refcounting for tail
pages without taking any locks because it is run within PT lock protected
critical sections (PT lock for pte and page_table_lock for
pmd_trans_huge).
The standard get_page() as invoked by direct-io instead will now take
the compound_lock but still only for tail pages. The direct-io paths
are usually I/O bound and the compound_lock is per THP so very
finegrined, so there's no risk of scalability issues with it. A simple
direct-io benchmarks with all lockdep prove locking and spinlock
debugging infrastructure enabled shows identical performance and no
overhead. So it's worth it. Ideally direct-io should stop calling
get_page() on pages returned by get_user_pages(). The spinlock in
get_page() is already optimized away for no-THP builds but doing
get_page() on tail pages returned by GUP is generally a rare operation
and usually only run in I/O paths.
This new refcounting on page_tail->_mapcount in addition to avoiding new
RCU critical sections will also allow the working set estimation code to
work without any further complexity associated to the tail page
refcounting with THP.

ubd_file_size() cannot use ubd_dev->cow.file because at this time
ubd_dev->cow.file is not initialized.
Therefore, ubd_file_size() will always report a wrong disk size when
COW files are used.
Reading from /dev/ubd* would crash the kernel.
We have to read the correct disk size from the COW file's backing
file.
