Currently, if a device changes its mtu, first the change happens (invloving
all the side effects), and after that the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU is sent so that
other devices can catch up with the new mtu. However, if they return
NOTIFY_BAD, then the change is reverted and error returned.
This is a really long and costy operation (sometimes). To fix this, add
NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU notification which is called prior to any change
actually happening, and if any callee returns NOTIFY_BAD - the change is
aborted. This way we're skipping all the playing with apply/revert the mtu.

This commit adds boost frequency support in cpufreq core (Hardware &
Software). Some SoCs (like Exynos4 - e.g. 4x12) allow setting frequency
above its normal operation limits. Such mode shall be only used for a
short time.
Overclocking (boost) support is essentially provided by platform
dependent cpufreq driver.
This commit unifies support for SW and HW (Intel) overclocking solutions
in the core cpufreq driver. Previously the "boost" sysfs attribute was
defined in the ACPI processor driver code. By default boost is disabled.
One global attribute is available at: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost.
It only shows up when cpufreq driver supports overclocking.
Under the hood frequencies dedicated for boosting are marked with a
special flag (CPUFREQ_BOOST_FREQ) at driver's frequency table.
It is the user's concern to enable/disable overclocking with a proper call
to sysfs.
The cpufreq_boost_trigger_state() function is defined non static on purpose.
It is used later with thermal subsystem to provide automatic enable/disable
of the BOOST feature.

CPUFreq drivers that use clock frameworks interface,i.e. clk_get_rate(),
to get CPUs clk rate, have similar sort of code used in most of them.
This patch adds a generic ->get() which will do the same thing for them.
All those drivers are required to now is to set .get to cpufreq_generic_get()
and set their clk pointer in policy->clk during ->init().

There are several problems with cpufreq stats in the way it handles
cpufreq_unregister_driver() and suspend/resume..
- We must not lose data collected so far when suspend/resume happens
and so stats directories must not be removed/allocated during these
operations, which is done currently.
- cpufreq_stat has registered notifiers with both cpufreq and hotplug.
It adds sysfs stats directory with a cpufreq notifier: CPUFREQ_NOTIFY
and removes this directory with a notifier from hotplug core.
In case cpufreq_unregister_driver() is called (on rmmod cpufreq driver),
stats directories per cpu aren't removed as CPUs are still online. The
only call cpufreq_stats gets is cpufreq_stats_update_policy_cpu() for
all CPUs except the last of each policy. And pointer to stat information
is stored in the entry for last CPU in the per-cpu cpufreq_stats_table.
But policy structure would be freed inside cpufreq core and so that will
result in memory leak inside cpufreq stats (as we are never freeing
memory for stats).
Now if we again insert the module cpufreq_register_driver() will be
called and we will again allocate stats data and put it on for first
CPU of every policy. In case we only have a single CPU per policy, we
will return with a error from cpufreq_stats_create_table() due to this
code:
if (per_cpu(cpufreq_stats_table, cpu))
return -EBUSY;
And so probably cpufreq stats directory would not show up anymore (as
it was added inside last policies->kobj which doesn't exist anymore).
I haven't tested it, though. Also the values in stats files wouldn't
be refreshed as we are using the earlier stats structure.
- CPUFREQ_NOTIFY is called from cpufreq_set_policy() which is called for
scenarios where we don't really want cpufreq_stat_notifier_policy() to get
called. For example whenever we are changing anything related to a policy:
min/max/current freq, etc. cpufreq_set_policy() is called and so cpufreq
stats is notified. Where we don't do any useful stuff other than simply
returning with -EBUSY from cpufreq_stats_create_table(). And so this
isn't the right notifier that cpufreq stats..
Due to all above reasons this patch does following changes:
- Add new notifiers CPUFREQ_CREATE_POLICY and CPUFREQ_REMOVE_POLICY,
which are only called when policy is created/destroyed. They aren't
called for suspend/resume paths..
- Use these notifiers in cpufreq_stat_notifier_policy() to create/destory
stats sysfs entries. And so cpufreq_unregister_driver() or suspend/resume
shouldn't be a problem for cpufreq_stats.
- Return early from cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback() for suspend/resume sequence,
so that we don't free stats structure.

This patch adds support to "max-speed" property which is a standard
Ethernet device tree property. max-speed specifies maximum speed
(specified in megabits per second) supported the device.
Depending on the clocking schemes some of the boards can only support
few link speeds, so having a way to limit the link speed in the mac
driver would allow such setups to work reliably.
Without this patch there is no way to tell the driver to limit the
link speed.

An ACPI enumerated device may have its compatible id strings.
To support the compatible ACPI ids (acpi_device->pnp.ids),
we introduced acpi_driver_match_device() to match
the driver->acpi_match_table and acpi_device->pnp.ids.
For those drivers, MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, xxx) is used to
exports the driver module alias in the format of
"acpi:device_compatible_ids".
But in the mean time, the current code does not export the
ACPI compatible strings as part of the module_alias for the
ACPI enumerated devices, which will break the module autoloading.
Take the following piece of code for example,
static const struct acpi_device_id xxx_acpi_match[] = {
{ "INTABCD", 0 },
{ }
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(acpi, xxx_acpi_match);
If this piece of code is used in a platform driver for
an ACPI enumerated platform device, the platform driver module_alias
is "acpi:INTABCD", but the uevent attribute of its platform device node
is "platform:INTABCD:00" (PREFIX:platform_device->name).
If this piece of code is used in an i2c driver for an ACPI enumerated
i2c device, the i2c driver module_alias is "acpi:INTABCD", but
the uevent of its i2c device node is "i2c:INTABCD:00" (PREFIX:i2c_client->name).
If this piece of code is used in an spi driver for an ACPI enumerated
spi device, the spi driver module_alias is "acpi:INTABCD", but
the uevent of its spi device node is "spi:INTABCD" (PREFIX:spi_device->modalias).
The reason why the module autoloading is not broken for now is that
the uevent file of the ACPI device node is "acpi:INTABCD".
Thus it is the ACPI device node creation that loads the platform/i2c/spi driver.
So this is a problem that will affect us the day when the ACPI bus
is removed from device model.
This patch introduces two new APIs,
one for exporting ACPI ids in uevent MODALIAS field,
and another for exporting ACPI ids in device' modalias sysfs attribute.
For any bus that supports ACPI enumerated devices, it needs to invoke
these two functions for their uevent and modalias attribute.

Some of Qualcomm's clocks can change their parent and rate at the
same time with a single register write. Add support for this
hardware to the common clock framework by adding a new
set_rate_and_parent() op. When the clock framework determines
that both the parent and the rate are going to change during
clk_set_rate() it will call the .set_rate_and_parent() op if
available and fall back to calling .set_parent() followed by
.set_rate() otherwise.

For some reason, some early WD drives spin up and down drives
erratically when the link is put into slumber mode which can reduce
the life expectancy of the device significantly. Unfortunately, we
don't have full list of devices and given the nature of the issue it'd
be better to err on the side of false positives than the other way
around. Let's disable LPM on all WD devices which match one of the
known problematic model prefixes and are SATA-I.
As horkage list doesn't support matching SATA capabilities, this is
implemented as two horkages - WD_BROKEN_LPM and NOLPM. The former is
set for the known prefixes and sets the latter if the matched device
is SATA-I.
Note that this isn't optimal as this disables all LPM operations and
partial link power state reportedly works fine on these; however, the
way LPM is implemented in libata makes it difficult to precisely map
libata LPM setting to specific link power state. Well, these devices
are already fairly outdated. Let's just disable whole LPM for now.

While calculating the scheduler tick max deferment, the delta is
converted from microseconds to nanoseconds through a multiplication
against NSEC_PER_USEC.
But this microseconds operand is an unsigned int, thus the result may
likely overflow. The result is cast to u64 but only once the operation
is completed, which is too late to avoid overflown result.
This is currently not a problem because the scheduler tick max deferment
is 1 second. But this may become an issue as we plan to make this
value tunable.
So lets fix this by casting the usecs value to u64 before multiplying by
NSECS_PER_USEC.
Also to prevent from this kind of mistake to happen again, move this
ad-hoc jiffies -> nsecs conversion to a new helper.
