e360adbe29 irq_work: Add generic hardirq context callbacks
Provide a mechanism that allows running code in IRQ context. It is
most useful for NMI code that needs to interact with the rest of the
system -- like wakeup a task to drain buffers.

Perf currently has such a mechanism, so extract that and provide it as
a generic feature, independent of perf so that others may also
benefit.

The IRQ context callback is generated through self-IPIs where
possible, or on architectures like powerpc the decrementer (the
built-in timer facility) is set to generate an interrupt immediately.

Architectures that don't have anything like this get to do with a
callback from the timer tick. These architectures can call
irq_work_run() at the tail of any IRQ handlers that might enqueue such
work (like the perf IRQ handler) to avoid undue latencies in
processing the work.

c41d68a513 compat: Make compat_alloc_user_space() incorporate the access_ok()
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.

25edd6946a sparc64: Get rid of indirect p1275 PROM call buffer.
This is based upon a report by Meelis Roos showing that it's possible
that we'll try to fetch a property that is 32K in size with some
devices.  With the current fixed 3K buffer we use for moving data in
and out of the firmware during PROM calls, that simply won't work.

In fact, it will scramble random kernel data during bootup.

The reasoning behind the temporary buffer is entirely historical.  It
used to be the case that we had problems referencing dynamic kernel
memory (including the stack) early in the boot process before we
explicitly told the firwmare to switch us over to the kernel trap
table.

So what we did was always give the firmware buffers that were locked
into the main kernel image.

But we no longer have problems like that, so get rid of all of this
indirect bounce buffering.

Besides fixing Meelis's bug, this also makes the kernel data about 3K
smaller.

It was also discovered during these conversions that the
implementation of prom_retain() was completely wrong, so that was
fixed here as well.  Currently that interface is not in use.

9b3bb86aca sparc64: Make rwsems 64-bit.
Basically tip-off the powerpc code, use a 64-bit type and atomic64_t
interfaces for the implementation.

This gets us off of the by-hand asm code I wrote, which frankly I
think probably ruins I-cache hit rates.

The idea was the keep the call chains less deep, but anything taking
the rw-semaphores probably is also calling other stuff and therefore
already has allocated a stack-frame.  So no real stack frame savings
ever.

Ben H. has posted patches to make powerpc use 64-bit too and with some
abstractions we can probably use a shared header file somewhere.

With suggestions from Sam Ravnborg.

0a492896ac sparc: Really fix "console=" for serial consoles.
If a video head and keyboard are hooked up, specifying "console=ttyS0"
or similar to use a serial console will not work properly.

The key issue is that we must register all serial console capable
devices with register_console(), otherwise the command line specified
device won't be found.  The sun serial drivers would only register
themselves as console devices if the OpenFirmware specified console
device node matched.  To fix this part we now unconditionally get
the serial console register by setting serial_drv->cons always.

Secondarily we must not add_preferred_console() using the firmware
provided console setting if the user gaven an override on the kernel
command line using "console="  The "primary framebuffer" matching
logic was always triggering o n openfirmware device node match, make
it not when a command line override was given.

3b9c6c11f5 dma-mapping: remove dma_is_consistent API
Architectures implement dma_is_consistent() in different ways (some
misinterpret the definition of API in DMA-API.txt).  So it hasn't been so
useful for drivers.  We have only one user of the API in tree.  Unlikely
out-of-tree drivers use the API.

Even if we fix dma_is_consistent() in some architectures, it doesn't look
useful at all.  It was invented long ago for some old systems that can't
allocate coherent memory at all.  It's better to export only APIs that are
definitely necessary for drivers.

Let's remove this API.

4565f0170d dma-mapping: unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations
dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment.  Architectures
defines it as ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (formally ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN).  So we
can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations.

Note that some architectures implement dma_get_cache_alignment wrongly.
dma_get_cache_alignment() should return the minimum DMA alignment.  So
fully-coherent architectures should return 1.  This patch also fixes this
issue.

26df6d1340 tty: Add EXTPROC support for LINEMODE
This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.

Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:

     These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
     LINEMODE in the server.

     There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
     When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
     are disabled.  Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
     of signals are all disabled.  This allows the telnetd to turn
     off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
     what state the user wants the terminal to be in.

     New ioctl:
         TIOCSIG         Generate a signal to processes in the
                         current process group of the pty.

     There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
     When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
     is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
     next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
     bit set.  This allows the process on the server side of the pty
     to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
     issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.

Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.

The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

597781f3e5 kmap_atomic: make kunmap_atomic() harder to misuse
kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].

kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
takes a pointer to within the page itself.  This seems to once in a while
trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
kunmap()).

Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong").  This is done by
refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
struct page.

The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
(which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).

The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.

[1] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-04-01.html
[2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
    break at runtime."
[3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
    share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
    degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
    for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.
[4] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-03-30.html
[5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
    the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?

irq_of_parse_and_map(), but the implementation is different, so it

b505ff5e72 of: kill struct of_device
Now that the device tree node pointer has been moved out of struct
of_device and into the common struct device, there isn't anything
unique about of_device anymore.  In fact, there isn't much need
for a separate of_bus when all busses have access to OF style
probing.

arch/powerpc and arch/microblaze are moving away from using the of_bus
and using the regular platform bus instead for mmio devices.  This
patch makes of_device the same as platform_device as a stepping stone
in migrating of_platform_drivers over to the platform bus.

1636f8ac2b sparc/of: Move of_device fields into struct pdev_archdata
This patch moves SPARC architecture specific data members out of
struct of_device and into the pdev_archdata structure.  The reason
for this change is to unify the struct of_device definition amongst
all the architectures.  It also remvoes the .sysdata, .slot, .portid
and .clock_freq properties because they aren't actually used by
anything.

A subsequent patch will replace struct of_device entirely with struct
platform_device and the of_platform support code will share common
routines with the platform bus (but the bus instances themselves can
remain separate).

This patch also adds 'struct resources *resource' and num_resources
to match the fields defined in struct platform_device.  After this
change, 'struct platform_device' can be used as a drop-in replacement
for 'struct of_platform'.

This change is in preparation for merging the of_platform_bus_type
with the platform_bus_type.

b0f82b81fe perf: Drop the skip argument from perf_arch_fetch_regs_caller
Drop this argument now that we always want to rewind only to the
state of the first caller.
It means frame pointers are not necessary anymore to reliably get
the source of an event. But this also means we need this helper
to be a macro now, as an inline function is not an option since
we need to know when to provide a default implentation.

There are more architectures that don't support ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN than
those that support it.  This removes removes ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN in
asm-generic/scatterlist.h and lets arhictectures to define it.

It's clearer than defining ARCH_HAS_SG_CHAIN asm-generic/scatterlist.h and
undefing it in arhictectures that don't support it.

204f3a0444 asm-generic: remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in scatterlist.h
This is the first half of the attempt to use asm-generic/scatterlist.h
on every architecture.

There are only two ways to define scatterlist structure. So it's easy
to convert every architecture to use asm-generic/scatterlist.h.

This patch:

The trick for ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in asm-generic/scatterlist.h doesn't work
for powerpc.  This lets architectures defin ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD.

Hopefully, we can remove ISA_DMA_THRESHOLD in the future; we can do better
to decide if the bouncing is necessary or not.

c87fe1c05d sparc32: Kill none_mask, it's bogus.
For some reason, the pte_none() calculation for srmmu sparc32
chips was masking out the top 4 bits.  That doesn't make any
sense, as those are just some of the physical bits of the PTE
encoding.

Furthermore, this mistake breaks things when the offset of of a swap
entry has a large enough offset as reported by Тхай Кирилл.

Sun4c always set it to zero, so it's really completely useless,
kill it.
