Simplify the check of the vma->flags in do_exception for the
different fault types.

Slim down the do_exception function to handle only the fast path of a
fault and move the exceptional cases into a new function. That slightly
increases the performance of the fault handling.

notify_page_fault does a preempt_disable/preempt_enable for each
fault generated by a kernel access to user space. If kprobes
is not active that is unnecessary since the interrupts are not
reenabled yet. To play safe repeat the kprobe_running check after
preempt_disable().

Introduce user_mode to replace the two variables switch_amode and
s390_noexec. There are three valid combinations of the old values:
1) switch_amode == 0 && s390_noexec == 0
2) switch_amode == 1 && s390_noexec == 0
3) switch_amode == 1 && s390_noexec == 1
They get replaced by
1) user_mode == HOME_SPACE_MODE
2) user_mode == PRIMARY_SPACE_MODE
3) user_mode == SECONDARY_SPACE_MODE
The new kernel parameter user_mode=[primary,secondary,home] lets
you choose the address space mode the user space processes should
use. In addition the CONFIG_S390_SWITCH_AMODE config option
is removed.

A data access in access-register mode always is a user mode access,
the code to inspect the access-registers can be removed. The second
change is to use a different test to check for no-execute fault.
The third change is to pass the translation exception identification
as parameter, in theory the trans_exc_code in the lowcore could have
been overwritten by the time the call to check_space from do_no_context
is done.

Split setting (driver wants feature enabled) and status (feature
setup was successful) for PGID related ccw device features so that
setup errors can be detected. Previously, incorrectly handled setup
errors could in rare cases lead to erratic I/O behavior and
permanently unusuable devices.

When the kernel is IPLed without the CLEAR option and switches
to 64-bit, the high-order half of the registers might contain
random values. This can cause addressing exceptions and the
kernel enters an interrupt loop.
Initialize the high-order half of the general purpose registers
with zeros after switching to 64-bit mode.

resulting in:

Extending the check to accept family 11h results in:

PCI tree
On a multi-node x3950M2 system, there's a slight oddity in the
PCI device tree for all secondary nodes:
30:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1)
\-33:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01)
\-34:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
...as compared to the primary node:
00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge (rev e1)
\-01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc ES1000 (rev 02)
03:00.0 PCI bridge: IBM CalIOC2 PCI-E Root Port (rev 01)
\-04:00.0 RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic MegaRAID SAS 1078 (rev 04)
In both nodes, the LSI RAID controller hangs off a CalIOC2
device, but on the secondary nodes, the BIOS hides the VGA
device and substitutes the device tree ending with the disk
controller.
It would seem that Calgary devices don't necessarily appear at
the top of the PCI tree, which means that the current code to
find the Calgary IOMMU that goes with a particular device is
buggy.
Rather than walk all the way to the top of the PCI
device tree and try to match bus number with Calgary descriptor,
the code needs to examine each parent of the particular device;
if it encounters a Calgary with a matching bus number, simply
use that.
Otherwise, we BUG() when the bus number of the Calgary doesn't
match the bus number of whatever's at the top of the device tree.
Extra note: This patch appears to work correctly for the x3950
that came before the x3950 M2.

Having run into the run-(boot-)time check a couple of times lately,
I finally took time to find a build-time check so that one doesn't
need to analyze the register/stack dump and resolve this (through
manual lookup in vmlinux) to the offending construct.
The assembler will emit a message like "Error: value of <num> too
large for field of 1 bytes at <offset>", which while not pointing
out the source location still makes analysis quite a bit easier.

In the case when cpu goes offline, fixup_irqs() will forward any
unhandled interrupt on the offlined cpu to the new cpu
destination that is handling the corresponding interrupt. This
interrupt forwarding is done via IPI's. Hence, in this case also
level-triggered io-apic interrupt will be seen as an edge
interrupt in the cpu's APIC IRR.
Document this scenario in the code which handles this case by doing
an explicit EOI to the io-apic to clear remote IRR of the io-apic RTE.

IO-APIC versions below 0x20 don't support EOI register.
Some of the Intel ICH Specs (ICH2 to ICH5) documents the io-apic
version as 0x2. This is an error with documentation and these
ICH chips use io-apic's of version 0x20 and indeed has a working
EOI register for the io-apic.
Fix the EOI register detection mechanism to check for version
0x20 and beyond.
And also, a platform can potentially have io-apic's with
different versions. Make the EOI register check per io-apic.

migrating the irq
When the level-triggered interrupt is seen as an edge interrupt,
we try to clear the remoteIRR explicitly (using either an
io-apic eoi register when present or through the idea of
changing trigger mode of the io-apic RTE to edge and then back
to level). But this explicit try also needs to happen before we
try to migrate the irq. Otherwise irq migration attempt will
fail anyhow, as it postpones the irq migration to a later
attempt when it sees the remoteIRR in the io-apic RTE still set.

When we disable a breakpoint through dr7, we unregister it right
away, making us lose track of its corresponding address
register value.
It means that the following sequence would be unsupported:
- set address in dr0
- enable it through dr7
- disable it through dr7
- enable it through dr7
because we lost the address register value when we disabled the
breakpoint.
Don't unregister the disabled breakpoints but rather disable
them.

With flatmem hibernation for Loongson will fail, and there are also some
other problems such as broken files when using NFS or CIFS / Samba.
The config help of sparsemem says:
"This option provides some potential performance benefits, along with
decreased code complexity."
So to avoid the potential problems of FLATMEM, we disable FLATMEM directly
and use SPARSEMEM instead.

Currently, with PAGE_SIZE_4KB, the kernel for loongson will hang on:
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
The possible reason is the cache aliases problem:
Loongson 2F has 64kb, 4 way L1 Cache, the way size is 16kb, which is bigger
then 4kb. so, If using 4kb page size, there is cache aliases problem.
To avoid this kind of problem, extra cache flushing. The 2nd possible
solution is 16kb page size which avoids cache aliases without the need for
extra cache flushes. So we disable 4kB pages until the aliasing issue is
solved.

If __xchg() is not getting inlined the outline version of the function
will have a reference to __xchg_called_with_bad_pointer() which does not
exist remaining. Fixed by using BUILD_BUG_ON() to check for allowable
operand sizes.

Some Debian users have reported that the kernel hangs early during boot on
some IP22 systems. Thomas Bogendoerfer found that this is due to a "bad
interaction between CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK and overwritten prom memory during
early boot". Since there's no fix yet, disable CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK for now.

The removal of the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag, commit a583f1b54249b
"remove unused TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag," resulted in incorrect
setting of the unaligned access control flags by the prctl syscall.
The re-addition of the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag, commit d0420c83f39f
"KEYS: Extend TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME to (almost) all architectures [try #6]"
further caused problems, namely incorrect operands to assembler code
as evidenced by:
AS arch/alpha/kernel/entry.o
arch/alpha/kernel/entry.S: Assembler messages:
arch/alpha/kernel/entry.S:326: Warning: operand out of range
(0x0000000000000406 is not between 0x0000000000000000 and
0x00000000000000ff)
Both regressions fixed by (1) rearranging TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag to be
in lower 8 bits of the thread info flags, and (2) making sure that
ALPHA_UAC_SHIFT matches the rearrangement of the thread info flags.

Code was added to mm/higmem.c that depends on several
kmap types that powerpc does not support. We add dummy
invalid definitions for KM_NMI, KM_NM_PTE, and KM_IRQ_PTE.
According to list discussion, this fix should not be needed
anymore starting with 2.6.33. The code is commented to this
effect so hopefully we will remember to remove this.

Check that the result of kmalloc is not NULL before passing it to other
functions.
The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:

expression *x;
