arm: export dma_set_coherent_mask
While a regression was fixed with commit 710224fa2750cf (arm: fix
"arm: fix pci_set_consistent_dma_mask for dmabounce devices"), a
new one was introduced as dma_set_coherent_mask wasn't exported
for modules. This patch takes care for this issue.

vfree()
In arch/x86/kernel/microcode_intel.c::generic_load_microcode()
we have this:
while (leftover) {
...
if (get_ucode_data(mc, ucode_ptr, mc_size) ||
microcode_sanity_check(mc) < 0) {
vfree(mc);
break;
}
...
}
if (mc)
vfree(mc);
This will cause a double free of 'mc'. This patch fixes that by
just removing the vfree() call in the loop since 'mc' will be
freed nicely just after we break out of the loop.
There's also a second change in the patch. I noticed a lot of
checks for pointers being NULL before passing them to vfree().
That's completely redundant since vfree() deals gracefully with
being passed a NULL pointer. Removing the redundant checks
yields a nice size decrease for the object file.

The master clock initialization for SH7201 was wholly bogus. Users of the
legacy API must initialize the clock rate through the struct clk itself
rather than returning the clock frequency. Given that the init function
itself is void, returning the frequency isn't terribly effective.

The AT91 MCI has special SDIO transfer types: SDIO block and SDIO byte
transfers, but at91_mci driver doesn't use them and handles all SDIO
transfers as ordinary MMC block transfers. This causes problems for
multiple-block SDIO transfers (in particular for 256-bytes blocks).
Fix this situation by checking the opcode for SDIO CMD53 and setting
the transfer type in the AT91_MCI_CMDR register properly.
This patch was tested with libertas SDIO driver: problem with TX
timeouts on big packets was eliminated.

Keep the crash kernel address below 512 MiB for 32 bits and 896 MiB
for 64 bits. For 32 bits, this retains compatibility with earlier
kernel releases, and makes it work even if the vmalloc= setting is
adjusted.
For 64 bits, we should be able to increase this substantially once a
hard-coded limit in kexec-tools is fixed.

The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom
of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of
the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI
"return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting
the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs
for r0.
However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks,
since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly
handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat
address space. Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional
random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register.
Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register"
hack in sigreturn. We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly
code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code. We extend that
code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions
after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0.
Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the
pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded.

Previously we were just setting up the "tp" register in the
new task as started by clone() in libc. However, this is not
quite right, since in principle a signal might be delivered to
the new task before it had its TLS set up. (Of course, this race
window still exists for resetting the libc getpid() cached value
in the new task, in principle. But in any case, we are now doing
this exactly the way all other architectures do it.)
This change is important for 2.6.37 since the tile glibc we will
be submitting upstream will not set TLS in user space any more,
so it will only work on a kernel that has this fix. It should
also be taken for 2.6.36.x in the stable tree if possible.

This prevents allocation of the last 2MB before 4GB.
The experiment described here shows Windows 7 ignoring the last 1MB:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23542#c27
This patch ignores the top 2MB instead of just 1MB because H. Peter Anvin
says "There will be ROM at the top of the 32-bit address space; it's a fact
of the architecture, and on at least older systems it was common to have a
shadow 1 MiB below."

When we allocate address space, e.g., to assign it to a PCI device, don't
allocate anything mentioned in the BIOS E820 memory map.
On recent machines (2008 and newer), we assign PCI resources from the
windows described by the ACPI PCI host bridge _CRS. On many Dell
machines, these windows overlap some E820 reserved areas, e.g.,
BIOS-e820: 00000000bfe4dc00 - 00000000c0000000 (reserved)
pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [mem 0xbff00000-0xdfffffff]
If we put devices at 0xbff00000, they don't work, probably because
that's really RAM, not I/O memory. This patch prevents that by removing
the 0xbfe4dc00-0xbfffffff area from the "available" resource.
I'm not very happy with this solution because Windows solves the problem
differently (it seems to ignore E820 reserved areas and it allocates
top-down instead of bottom-up; details at comment 45 of the bugzilla
below). That means we're vulnerable to BIOS defects that Windows would not
trip over. For example, if BIOS described a device in ACPI but didn't
mention it in E820, Windows would work fine but Linux would fail.

This implements arch_remove_reservations() so allocate_resource() can
avoid any arch-specific reserved areas. This currently just avoids the
BIOS area (the first 1MB), but could be used for E820 reserved areas if
that turns out to be necessary.
We previously avoided this area in pcibios_align_resource(). This patch
moves the test from that PCI-specific path to a generic path, so *all*
resource allocations will avoid this area.

Fix interrupt priority level handling on SH-Mobile ARM.
SH-Mobile ARM platforms using multiple interrupt priority
levels need this patch to fix a potential dead lock that
may occur if multiple interrupts with different levels
are pending simultaneously.
The default INTC configuration is to use the same priority
level for all interrupts, so this issue does not trigger by
default. It is however common for board code to override the
interrupt priority for certain interrupt sources depending
on the application. Without this fix such boards may lock up.
In detail, this patch updates the INTC code in entry-macro.S
to make sure that the INTLVLA register gets set as expected.
To trigger this bug modify the board specific code to adjust
the interrupt priority level for the ethernet chip. After
changing the priority level simply use flood ping to drown
the board with interrupts.
This patch applies to INTCA-based processors such as sh7372,
sh7377 and sh7372. GIC-based processors are not affected.
Suitable for v2.6.37-rc and stable from v2.6.34 to v2.6.36.

I am about to commit:
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2010-10/msg00033.html
that fixes a problem with the LD/SD macro currently implemented by GAS for
the o32 ABI in an inconsistent way. This is best illustrated with a
simple program, which I'm copying here from the message above for easier
reference:
$ cat ld.s
ld $5,32767($4)
ld $5,32768($4)
This gets assebled into the following output:
$ mips-linux-as -32 -mips3 -o ld.o ld.s
$ mips-linux-objdump -d ld.o
ld.o: file format elf32-tradbigmips
Disassembly of section .text:
00000000 <.text>:

c: 8c258000 lw a1,-32768(at)
10: 8c268004 lw a2,-32764(at)
...
Oops!
The GAS fix makes the macro behave in a consistent way and pairs of LW/SW
instructions to be output as appropriate regardless of the size of the
offset associated with the address used. The machine instruction is still
available, but to reach it macros have to be disabled first. This has a
side effect of requiring the use of a machine-addressable memory operand.
As some platforms require 64-bit operations for accesses to some I/O
registers LD/SD instructions are used in a couple of places in Linux
regardless of the ABI selected. Here's a fix for some pieces of code
affected I've been able to track down. The fix should be backwards
compatible with all supported binutils releases in existence and can be
used as a reference for any other places or off-tree code. The use of the
"R" constraint guarantees a machine-addressable operand.

In commit 7d172bfe ("Alchemy: Add UART PM methods") I introduced
platform PM methods which call a function of the 8250 driver;
this patch works around link failures when the kernel is built
without 8250 support.

Some devices like the Netgear WGT634U are using ttyS1 for default console
output. We should switch to that console if it was given in the kernel_args
parameters.

Instead of writing own function for parsing the mac address we now
use sscanf.
