PPC_PTRACE_GETHWDBGINFO, PPC_PTRACE_SETHWDEBUG and PPC_PTRACE_DELHWDEBUG are
PowerPC specific ptrace flags that use the watchpoint register. While they are
targeted primarily towards BookE users, user-space applications such as GDB
have started using them for BookS too. This patch enables the use of generic
hardware breakpoint interfaces for these new flags.
Apart from the usual benefits of using generic hw-breakpoint interfaces, these
changes allow debuggers (such as GDB) to use a common set of ptrace flags for
their watchpoint needs and allow more precise breakpoint specification (length
of the variable can be specified).
Mikey added: rebased and added dbginfo.features around #ifdef

The function initialize_flash_pde_data is only called four times. All four
calls are in the function rtas_flash_init, and on the failure of any of the
calls, remove_flash_pde is called on the third argument of each of the
calls. There is thus no need for initialize_flash_pde_data to call
remove_flash_pde on the same argument. remove_flash_pde kfrees the data
field of its argument, and does not clear that field, so this amounts ot a
possible double free.

There're couples of functions defined to print debugging messages
during initializing P7IOC. However, we got bogus output from those
functions like pe_info(). The problem here is that the message
level (the first parameter to printk()) isn't printable and that
caused the bogus output.
The patch fixes the issue by merging __pe_printk() to the macro
define_pe_printk_level() so that we can pass the message level
directly to printk().

Currently xmon_depth_to_print is static and global, but it's only
ever used in xmon_show_stack().
At least with a modern compiler it's inlined, so there's no point
in it being static, we could #define it but it's only used in one
place.
By reworking the logic we can drop count and just decrement the

Earlier without cpuidle framework on pseries, the native arch
idle routine comprised of both snooze and nap
states. smt_snooze_delay variable was used to delay
the idle process entry to deeper idle state like nap.
With the coming of cpuidle, this arch specific idle was replaced
by two different idle routines, one for supporting snooze and other
for nap. This enabled addition of more
low level idle states on pseries in the future.
On adopting the generic cpuidle framework for POWER systems,
the decision of which idle state to choose from, given a predicted
idle time is taken by the menu governor based on
target_residency and exit_latency of the idle states.
target_residency is the minimum time to be resident in that idle state.
Exit_latency is time taken to exit out of idle state.
Deeper the idle state, both the target residency and exit latency
would be higher.
In the current design, smt_snooze_delay is used as target_residency
for the snooze state which is incorrect, as it is not the
minimum but the maximum duration to be in snooze state.
This would result in the governor in taking bad decision,
as presently target_residency of nap < target_residency of snooze
inspite of nap being deeper idle state.
This patch aims to fix this problem by replacing the smt_snooze_delay loop
in snooze state, with the need_resched() as the governor is aware of
entry and exit of various idle transitions based on which
next idle time prediction.
The governor is intelligent enough to determine the idle state the needs to
be transitioned to and maintains a whole of heuristics including
io load, previous idle states predictions etc for the same, based on
which idle state entry decision is taken.
With this fix, of setting target_residency of snooze to 0
nap to smt_snooze_delay
if the predicted idle time is less
than smt_snooze_delay (target_residency of nap)
value governor would pick snooze state, else nap. This adhers to the
previous native idle design.

smt_snooze_delay was designed to delay idle loop's nap entry
in the native idle code before it got ported over to use as part of
the cpuidle framework.
A -ve value assigned to smt_snooze_delay should result in
busy looping, in other words disabling the entry to nap state.
- https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2010-May/082450.html
This particular functionality can be achieved currently by
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/state1/disable
but it is broken when one assigns -ve value to the smt_snooze_delay
variable either via sysfs entry or ppc64_cpu util.
This patch aims to fix this, by disabling nap state when smt_snooze_delay
variable is set to -ve value.

The core page allocator ensures that page flags are zeroed when freeing
pages via free_pages_check. A number of architectures (ARM, PPC, MIPS)
rely on this property to treat new pages as dirty with respect to the data
cache and perform the appropriate flushing before mapping the pages into
userspace.
This can lead to cache synchronisation problems when using hugepages,
since the allocator keeps its own pool of pages above the usual page
allocator and does not reset the page flags when freeing a page into the
pool.
This patch adds a new architecture hook, arch_clear_hugepage_flags, so
that architectures which rely on the page flags being in a particular
state for fresh allocations can adjust the flags accordingly when a page
is freed into the pool.

1| account as reserved_vm | VM_IO

4| do not mlock | VM_IO, VM_DONTEXPAND, VM_HUGETLB, VM_PFNMAP
This patch removes reserved_vm counter from mm_struct. Seems like nobody
cares about it, it does not exported into userspace directly, it only
reduces total_vm showed in proc.
Thus VM_RESERVED can be replaced with VM_IO or pair VM_DONTEXPAND | VM_DONTDUMP.

Some security modules and oprofile still uses VM_EXECUTABLE for retrieving
a task's executable file. After this patch they will use mm->exe_file
directly. mm->exe_file is protected with mm->mmap_sem, so locking stays
the same.

other branch as normal asm-generic changes do. One is a fix for a
build warning, the other two are more interesting:
* A patch from Mark Brown to allow using the common clock infrastructure
on all architectures, so we can use the clock API in architecture
independent device drivers.
* The UAPI split patches from David Howells for the asm-generic files.
There are other architecture specific series that are going through
the arch maintainer tree and that depend on this one.
There may be a few small merge conflicts between Mark's patch and
the following arch header file split patches. In each case the solution
will be to keep the new "generic-y += clkdev.h" line, even if it
ends up being the only line in the Kbuild file.

Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
"Some highlights in addition to the usual batch of fixes:
- 64TB address space support for 64-bit processes by Aneesh Kumar
- Gavin Shan did a major cleanup & re-organization of our EEH support
code (IBM fancy PCI error handling & recovery infrastructure) which
paves the way for supporting different platform backends, along
with some rework of the PCIe code for the PowerNV platform in order
to remove home made resource allocations and instead use the
generic code (which is possible after some small improvements to it
done by Gavin).
- Uprobes support by Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli
- A pile of embedded updates from Freescale folks, including new SoC
and board supports, more KVM stuff including preparing for 64-bit
BookE KVM support, ePAPR 1.1 updates, etc..."

This is a preparatory patch for the introduction of NT_SIGINFO elf note.
Make the location of compat_siginfo_t uniform across eight architectures
which have it. Now it can be pulled in by including asm/compat.h or
linux/compat.h.
Most of the copies are verbatim. compat_uid[32]_t had to be replaced by
__compat_uid[32]_t. compat_uptr_t had to be moved up before
compat_siginfo_t in asm/compat.h on a several architectures (tile already
had it moved up). compat_sigval_t had to be relocated from linux/compat.h
to asm/compat.h.
