This is the driver for latest Blackfin on-chip nand flash controller
- use nand_chip and mtd_info common nand driver interface
- provide both PIO and dma operation
- compiled with ezkit bf548 configuration
- use hardware 1-bit ECC
- tested with YAFFS2 and can mount YAFFS2 filesystem as rootfs
ChangeLog from try#1
- use hweight32() instead of count_bits()
- replace bf54x with bf5xx and BF54X with BF5XX
- compare against plat->page_size in 2 cases when enable hardware ECC
ChangeLog from try#2
- passed nand_test suites
- use cpu_relax() instead of busy wait loop
- some coding style issue pointed out by Andrew

When we press ctrl-alt-del,kernel_restart_prepare will invoke
cfi_intelext_reboot which will set flash to read array mode, but later
when device_shutdown is invoked which may put current work queue to
sleep and other process may be scheduled to running and programming
flash in not FL_READY mode again. So we can't boot up if this flash is
used for bootloader.

When building NOR flash support, you have compile-time options for the
bus width and the number of individual chips which are interleaved
together onto that bus. The code to deal with arbitrary geometry is a
bit convoluted, and people want to just configure it for the specific
hardware they have, to avoid the runtime overhead.
Selecting _none_ of the available options doesn't make any sense. You
should have at least one. This makes it build though, since people
persist in trying.

The NUMA layer only supports NUMA policies for the highest zone. When
ZONE_MOVABLE is configured with kernelcore=, the the highest zone becomes
ZONE_MOVABLE. The result is that policies are only applied to allocations
like anonymous pages and page cache allocated from ZONE_MOVABLE when the
zone is used.
This patch applies policies to the two highest zones when the highest zone
is ZONE_MOVABLE. As ZONE_MOVABLE consists of pages from the highest "real"
zone, it's always functionally equivalent.
The patch has been tested on a variety of machines both NUMA and non-NUMA
covering x86, x86_64 and ppc64. No abnormal results were seen in
kernbench, tbench, dbench or hackbench. It passes regression tests from
the numactl package with and without kernelcore= once numactl tests are
patched to wait for vmstat counters to update.
akpm: this is the nasty hack to fix NUMA mempolicies in the presence of
ZONE_MOVABLE and kernelcore= in 2.6.23. Christoph says "For .24 either merge
the mobility or get the other solution that Mel is working on. That solution
would only use a single zonelist per node and filter on the fly. That may
help performance and also help to make memory policies work better."

The new exec code inserts an accounted vma into an mm struct which is not
current->mm. The existing memory check code has a hard coded assumption
that this does not happen as does the security code.
As the correct mm is known we pass the mm to the security method and the
helper function. A new security test is added for the case where we need
to pass the mm and the existing one is modified to pass current->mm to
avoid the need to change large amounts of code.

Reading the LSR clears the break, parity, frame error, and overrun bits in
the 8250 chip, but these are not being saved in all places that read the
LSR. Same goes for the MSR delta bits. Save the LSR bits off whenever the
lsr is read so they can be handled later in the receive routine. Save the
MSR bits to be handled in the modem status routine.
Also, clear the stored bits and clear the interrupt registers before
enabling interrupts, to avoid handling old values of the stored bits in the
interrupt routines.

Use cpu_relax() in the busy loops, as atomic_read() doesn't automatically
imply volatility for i386 and x86_64. x86_64 doesn't have this issue because
it open-codes the while loop in smpboot.c:smp_callin() itself that already
uses cpu_relax().
For i386, however, smpboot.c:smp_callin() calls wait_for_init_deassert()
which is buggy for mach-default and mach-es7000 cases.
[ I test-built a kernel -- smp_callin() itself got inlined in its only
callsite, smpboot.c:start_secondary() -- and the relevant piece of
code disassembles to the following:
0xc1019704 <start_secondary+12>: mov 0xc144c4c8,%eax
0xc1019709 <start_secondary+17>: test %eax,%eax
0xc101970b <start_secondary+19>: je 0xc1019709 <start_secondary+17>
init_deasserted (at 0xc144c4c8) gets fetched into %eax only once and
then we loop over the test of the stale value in the register only,
so these look like real bugs to me. With the fix below, this becomes:
0xc1019706 <start_secondary+14>: pause
0xc1019708 <start_secondary+16>: cmpl $0x0,0xc144c4c8
0xc101970f <start_secondary+23>: je 0xc1019706 <start_secondary+14>
which looks nice and healthy. ]

The underflow exception cases were wrong.
This is one weird area of ieee1754 handling in that the underflow
behavior changes based upon whether underflow is enabled in the trap
enable mask of the FPU control register. As a specific case the Sparc
V9 manual gives us the following description:
--------------------
If UFM = 0: Underflow occurs if a nonzero result is tiny and a
loss of accuracy occurs. Tininess may be detected
before or after rounding. Loss of accuracy may be
either a denormalization loss or an inexact result.
If UFM = 1: Underflow occurs if a nonzero result is tiny.
Tininess may be detected before or after rounding.
--------------------
What this amounts to in the packing case is if we go subnormal,
we set underflow if any of the following are true:
1) rounding sets inexact
2) we ended up rounding back up to normal (this is the case where
we set the exponent to 1 and set the fraction to zero), this
should set inexact too
3) underflow is set in FPU control register trap-enable mask
The initially discovered example was "DBL_MIN / 16.0" which
incorrectly generated an underflow. It should not, unless underflow
is set in the trap-enable mask of the FPU csr.
Another example, "0x0.0000000000001p-1022 / 16.0", should signal both
inexact and underflow. The cpu implementations and ieee1754
literature is very clear about this. This is case #2 above.
However, if underflow is set in the trap enable mask, only underflow
should be set and reported as a trap. That is handled properly by the
prioritization logic in
arch/sparc{,64}/math-emu/math.c:record_exception().
Based upon a report and test case from Jakub Jelinek.

Add empty definition of mmiowb() since some drivers need it. Uncached
writes are strongly ordered on AVR32. They may be delayed if the
dcache is busy doing a writeback, but AFAICT that's not what this
macro is supposed to deal with, at least on UP systems.
We might have to revisit this definition when a SMP-capable AVR32 CPU
comes along, depending on how the busses and cache coherency stuff
end up being implemented.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8797 shows that the
bonding driver may produce bogus combinations of the checksum
flags and SG/TSO.
For example, if you bond devices with NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and
NETIF_F_IP_CSUM you'll end up with a bonding device that
has neither flag set. If both have TSO then this produces
an illegal combination.
The bridge device on the other hand has the correct code to
deal with this.
In fact, the same code can be used for both. So this patch
moves that logic into net/core/dev.c and uses it for both
bonding and bridging.
In the process I've made small adjustments such as only
setting GSO_ROBUST if at least one constituent device
supports it.

The Averatec 2370 and some other Turion laptop BIOS seems to program the
ENABLE_C1E MSR inconsistently between cores. This confuses the lapic
use heuristics because when C1E is enabled anywhere it seems to affect
the complete chip.
Use a global flag instead of a per cpu flag to handle this.
If any CPU has C1E enabled disabled lapic use.
Thanks to Cal Peake for debugging.

Commit 19d36ccdc34f5ed444f8a6af0cbfdb6790eb1177 "x86: Fix alternatives
and kprobes to remap write-protected kernel text" uses code which is
being patched for patching.
In particular, paravirt_ops does patching in two stages: first it
calls paravirt_ops.patch, then it fills any remaining instructions
with nop_out(). nop_out calls text_poke() which calls
lookup_address() which calls pgd_val() (aka paravirt_ops.pgd_val):
that call site is one of the places we patch.
If we always do patching as one single call to text_poke(), we only
need make sure we're not patching the memcpy in text_poke itself.
This means the prototype to paravirt_ops.patch needs to change, to
marshal the new code into a buffer rather than patching in place as it
does now. It also means all patching goes through text_poke(), which
is known to be safe (apply_alternatives is also changed to make a
single patch).
AK: fix compilation on x86-64 (bad rusty!)
AK: fix boot on x86-64 (sigh)
AK: merged with other patches

gcc currently doesn't support attributes on types, so we can't use it
function pointers. This avoids some warnings on a gcc 4.3 build.
