Handing down irq_desc to msi just so that msi can access
irq_desc.irq_data.msi_desc is a pretty stupid idea. The calling code
can hand down a pointer to msi_desc so msi code does not need to know
about the irq descriptor at all.

sparse irq sets up NR_IRQS_LEGACY irq descriptors and archs then go
ahead and allocate more.
Use the unused return value of arch_probe_nr_irqs() to let the
architecture return the number of early allocations. Fix up all users.

The current sparse_irq allocator has several short comings due to
failures in the design or the lack of it:
- Requires iteration over the number of active irqs to find a free slot
(Some architectures have grown their own workarounds for this)
- Removal of entries is not possible
- Racy between create_irq_nr and destroy_irq (plugged by horrible
callbacks)
- Migration of active irq descriptors is not possible
- No bulk allocation of irq ranges
- Sprinkeled irq_desc references all over the place outside of kernel/irq/
(The previous chip functions series is addressing this issue)
Implement a sane allocator which fixes the above short comings (though
migration of active descriptors needs a full tree wide cleanup of the
direct and mostly unlocked access to irq_desc).
The new allocator still uses a radix_tree, but uses a bitmap for
keeping track of allocated irq numbers. That allows:
- Fast lookup of a free slot
- Allows the removal of descriptors
- Prevents the create/destroy race
- Bulk allocation of consecutive irq ranges
- Basic design is ready for migration of life descriptors after
further cleanups
The bitmap is also used in the SPARSE_IRQ=n case for lookup and
raceless (de)allocation of irq numbers. So it removes the requirement
for looping through the descriptor array to find slots.
Right now it uses sparse_irq_lock to protect the bitmap and the radix
tree, but after cleaning up all users we should be able convert that
to a mutex and to switch the radix_tree and decriptor allocations to
GFP_KERNEL.

Arch code sets it's own irq_desc.status flags right after boot and for

early_init_irq_lock_class() is called way before anything touches the

The low level irq chip functions want access to irq_desc->irq_data.
Provide new functions which hand down irq_data instead of the irq
number so these functions avoid to call irq_to_desc() which is a radix
tree lookup in case of sparse irq.
This provides all the old functions except one: end(). end() is a
relict of __do_IRQ() and will just go away with the __do_IRQ() code.
The replacement for set_affinity() has an extra argument "bool
force". The reason for this is to notify the low level code, that the
move has to be done right away and cannot be delayed until the next
interrupt happens. That's necessary to handle the irq fixup on cpu
unplug in the generic code.

Low level chip functions need access to irq_desc->handler_data,
irq_desc->chip_data and irq_desc->msi_desc. We hand down the irq
number to the low level functions, so they need to lookup irq_desc.
With sparse irq this means a radix tree lookup.
We could hand down irq_desc itself, but low level chip functions have
no need to fiddle with it directly and we want to restrict access to
irq_desc further.
Preparatory patch for new chip functions.
Note, that the ugly anon union/struct is there to avoid a full tree
wide clean up for now. This is not going to last 3 years like __do_IRQ()

Fixes kernel bugzilla #16603
tcp_sendmsg() truncates iov_len to an 'int' which a 4GB write to write
zero bytes, for example.
There is also the problem higher up of how verify_iovec() works. It
wants to prevent the total length from looking like an error return
value.
However it does this using 'int', but syscalls return 'long' (and
thus signed 64-bit on 64-bit machines). So it could trigger
false-positives on 64-bit as written. So fix it to use 'long'.

This patch adds a workaround for an IOMMU BIOS problem to
the AMD IOMMU driver. The result of the bug is that the
IOMMU does not execute commands anymore when the system
comes out of the S3 state resulting in system failure. The
bug in the BIOS is that is does not restore certain hardware
specific registers correctly. This workaround reads out the
contents of these registers at boot time and restores them
on resume from S3. The workaround is limited to the specific
IOMMU chipset where this problem occurs.

This fixes the regression caused by the commit 6fee48cd330c68
("dma-mapping: arm: use generic pci_set_dma_mask and
pci_set_consistent_dma_mask").
ARM needs to clip the dma coherent mask for dmabounce devices. This
restores the old trick.
Note that strictly speaking, the DMA API doesn't allow architectures to do
such but I'm not sure it's worth adding the new API to set the dma mask
that allows architectures to clip it.

compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.
This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.
This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

is low and kswapd is awake
Ordinarily watermark checks are based on the vmstat NR_FREE_PAGES as it is
cheaper than scanning a number of lists. To avoid synchronization
overhead, counter deltas are maintained on a per-cpu basis and drained
both periodically and when the delta is above a threshold. On large CPU
systems, the difference between the estimated and real value of
NR_FREE_PAGES can be very high. If NR_FREE_PAGES is much higher than
number of real free page in buddy, the VM can allocate pages below min
watermark, at worst reducing the real number of pages to zero. Even if
the OOM killer kills some victim for freeing memory, it may not free
memory if the exit path requires a new page resulting in livelock.
This patch introduces a zone_page_state_snapshot() function (courtesy of
Christoph) that takes a slightly more accurate view of an arbitrary vmstat
counter. It is used to read NR_FREE_PAGES while kswapd is awake to avoid
the watermark being accidentally broken. The estimate is not perfect and
may result in cache line bounces but is expected to be lighter than the
IPI calls necessary to continually drain the per-cpu counters while kswapd
is awake.

Tests with recent firmware on Intel X25-M 80GB and OCZ Vertex 60GB SSDs
show a shift since I last tested in December: in part because of firmware
updates, in part because of the necessary move from barriers to awaiting
completion at the block layer. While discard at swapon still shows as
slightly beneficial on both, discarding 1MB swap cluster when allocating
is now disadvanteous: adds 25% overhead on Intel, adds 230% on OCZ (YMMV).
Surrender: discard as presently implemented is more hindrance than help
for swap; but might prove useful on other devices, or with improvements.
So continue to do the discard at swapon, but make discard while swapping
conditional on a SWAP_FLAG_DISCARD to sys_swapon() (which has been using
only the lower 16 bits of int flags).
We can add a --discard or -d to swapon(8), and a "discard" to swap in
/etc/fstab: matching the mount option for btrfs, ext4, fat, gfs2, nilfs2.

Please revert 2.6.36-rc commit d2997b1042ec150616c1963b5e5e919ffd0b0ebf
"hibernation: freeze swap at hibernation". It complicated matters by
adding a second swap allocation path, just for hibernation; without in any
way fixing the issue that it was intended to address - page reclaim after
fixing the hibernation image might free swap from a page already imaged as
swapcache, letting its swap be reallocated to store a different page of
the image: resulting in data corruption if the imaged page were freed as
clean then swapped back in. Pages freed to si->swap_map were still in
danger of being reallocated by the alternative allocation path.
I guess it inadvertently fixed slow SSD swap allocation for hibernation,
as reported by Nigel Cunningham: by missing out the discards that occur on
the usual swap allocation path; but that was unintentional, and needs a
separate fix.

Replace the arbitrary software-reset call from the device-probe
method, because:
- It is defective. To work correctly, it should be two byte writes,
not a single word write. As it stands, it does nothing.
- Some devices with sx150x expanders installed have their NRESET pins
ganged on the same line, so resetting one causes the others to reset -
not a nice thing to do arbitrarily!
- The probe, usually taking place at boot, implies a recent hard-reset,
so a software reset at this point is just a waste of energy anyway.
Therefore, make it optional, defaulting to off, as this will match the
common case of probing at powerup and also matches the current broken
no-op behavior.

The pte_same check is reliable only if the swap entry remains pinned (by
the page lock on swapcache). We've also to ensure the swapcache isn't
removed before we take the lock as try_to_free_swap won't care about the
page pin.
One of the possible impacts of this patch is that a KSM-shared page can
point to the anon_vma of another process, which could exit before the page
is freed.
This can leave a page with a pointer to a recycled anon_vma object, or
worse, a pointer to something that is no longer an anon_vma.

Add cgroup_attach_task_all()
The existing cgroup_attach_task_current_cg() API is called by a thread to
attach another thread to all of its cgroups; this is unsuitable for cases
where a privileged task wants to attach itself to the cgroups of a less
privileged one, since the call must be made from the context of the target
task.
This patch adds a more generic cgroup_attach_task_all() API that allows
both the source task and to-be-moved task to be specified.
cgroup_attach_task_current_cg() becomes a specialization of the more
generic new function.

Some macro parameter references inside typeof() operator are not enclosed
with parenthesis. It should be safer to add them.

The introduction of support for SD combo cards breaks the initialization
of all CSR SDIO chips. The GO_IDLE (CMD0) in mmc_sd_get_cid() causes CSR
chips to be reset (this is non-standard behavior).
When initializing an SDIO card check for a combo card by using the memory
present bit in the R4 response to IO_SEND_OP_COND (CMD5). This avoids the
call to mmc_sd_get_cid() on an SDIO-only card.

lg_lock_global() currently only acquires spinlocks for online CPUs, but
it's meant to lock all possible CPUs. Lglock-protected resources may be
associated with removed CPUs - and, indeed, that could happen with the
per-superblock open files lists.
At Nick's suggestion, change for_each_online_cpu() to
for_each_possible_cpu() to protect accesses to those resources.
