Rename mdesc_mem_ops to *_ops so modpost ignores __init references
and declare mdesc_bootmem_alloc __init since it is only used
during __init context.

c73fcc846c [SPARC]: Fix serial console device detection.
The current scheme works on static interpretation of text names, which
is wrong.

The output-device setting, for example, must be resolved via an alias
or similar to a full path name to the console device.

Paths also contain an optional set of 'options', which starts with a
colon at the end of the path.  The option area is used to specify
which of two serial ports ('a' or 'b') the path refers to when a
device node drives multiple ports.  'a' is assumed if the option
specification is missing.

This was caught by the UltraSPARC-T1 simulator.  The 'output-device'
property was set to 'ttya' and we didn't pick upon the fact that this
is an OBP alias set to '/virtual-devices/console'.  Instead we saw it
as the first serial console device, instead of the hypervisor console.

The infrastructure is now there to take advantage of this to resolve
the console correctly even in multi-head situations in fbcon too.

Thanks to Greg Onufer for the bug report.

486acd4850 [CELL] spufs: rework list management and associated locking
This sorts out the various lists and related locks in the spu code.

In detail:

 - the per-node free_spus and active_list are gone.  Instead struct spu
   gained an alloc_state member telling whether the spu is free or not
 - the per-node spus array is now locked by a per-node mutex, which
   takes over from the global spu_lock and the per-node active_mutex
 - the spu_alloc* and spu_free function are gone as the state change is
   now done inline in the spufs code.  This allows some more sharing of
   code for the affinity vs normal case and more efficient locking
 - some little refactoring in the affinity code for this locking scheme

1474855d08 [CELL] oprofile: add support to OProfile for profiling CELL BE SPUs
From: Maynard Johnson <mpjohn@us.ibm.com>

This patch updates the existing arch/powerpc/oprofile/op_model_cell.c
to add in the SPU profiling capabilities.  In addition, a 'cell' subdirectory
was added to arch/powerpc/oprofile to hold Cell-specific SPU profiling code.
Exports spu_set_profile_private_kref and spu_get_profile_private_kref which
are used by OProfile to store private profile information in spufs data
structures.

Also incorporated several fixes from other patches (rrn).  Check pointer
returned from kzalloc.  Eliminated unnecessary cast.  Better error
handling and cleanup in the related area.  64-bit unsigned long parameter
was being demoted to 32-bit unsigned int and eventually promoted back to
unsigned long.

of Malta firmware.

Example of vicinity properties for a node in Malta:

Node:        Vicinity property contains phandles of:
spe@0        [ spe@100000 , mic-tm@50a000 ]
spe@100000   [ spe@0      , spe@200000    ]

spe@280000   [ spe@180000 , spe@380000    ]
spe@380000   [ spe@280000 , bif0@512000   ]

aa6d5b2025 [CELL] cell: add per BE structure with info about its SPUs
Addition of a spufs-global "cbe_info" array. Each entry contains information
about one Cell/B.E. node, namelly:
* list of spus (both free and busy spus are in this list);
* list of free spus (replacing the static spu_list from spu_base.c)
* number of spus;
* number of reserved (non scheduleable) spus.

SPE affinity implementation actually requires only access to one spu per
BE node (since it implements its own pointer to walk through the other spus
of the ring) and the number of scheduleable spus (n_spus - non_sched_spus)
However having this more general structure can be useful for other
functionalities, concentrating per-cbe statistics / data.

The Axon bridge chip used on new Cell/B.E. based blade servers
comes with a DDR2 memory controller that can be used to
attach cheap memory modules, as opposed to the high-speed
XDR memory that is used by the CPU itself.

Since the memory controller does not participate in the
cache coherency protocol, we can not use the memory direcly
for Linux applications, but by providing a block device
it can be used for swap space, temporary file storage and
through the use of the direct_access block device operation
for mapping into user addresses, when it is mounted with
an appropriate file system.

b86ce01c77 [CELL] allow linux to map Cell regs on legacy SLOF tree.
The platforms missing the "cpus" property in the "be" node are mono-Cell
platforms such as CAB or Getaway.

Therefore it is possible to assume that if there is no "cpus" properties
under the "be" node then we can safely return the "device node" without
more checking. This is a bit hacky but ... it allows it to work on
these platforms.

Previous patch changed based on Christian Krafft's comment.

On some legacy SLOF tree the generic code is unable to ioremap some Cell BE
registers. Therefore the "generic" functions are returning a NULL pointer,
triggering a crash on such platforms.

Let's handle this more gracefully.

74889e41d9 [CELL] cbe_cpufreq: reorganize code
This patch reorganizes the code of the driver into three files.
Two cbe_cpufreq_pmi.c and cbe_cpufreq_pervasive.c care about hardware.
cbe_cpufreq.c contains the logic.
There is no changed behaviour, except that the PMI related function
is now located in a seperate module cbe_cpufreq_pmi. This module
will be required by cbe_cpufreq, if CONFIG_CBE_CPUFREQ_PMI has been set.

e5ecc87192 [CELL] cbe_cpufreq: fix initialization
This patch fixes the initialization of the cbe_cpufreq driver.
The code that initializes the PMI related functions was called per cpu:
* registering cpufreq notifier block
* registering a pmi handler

This ends in a bug that the notifier block gets called in an endless loop.
The initialization code is being put to the
module init code path by this patch. This way it only gets called once.

813f90728e [CELL] pmi: remove support for mutiple devices.
The pmi driver got simplified by removing support for multiple devices.
As there is no more than one pmi device per maschine, there is no need to
specify the device for listening and sending messages.

This way the caller (cbe_cpufreq) doesn't need to scan the device tree.
When registering the handler on a board without a pmi
interface, pmi.c will just return -ENODEV.

The patch that fixed the breakage of cell_defconfig has been
broken out of the earlier version of this patch. So this is
the version that applies cleanly on top of it.

d2eea68e7d xen: disable vdso "nosegneg" on native boot
One of the nice ideas behind paravirt is that CONFIG_XEN=y can be included
in a standard configuration and be no worse for native booting than as a
Xen guest.  The glibc feature that supports the vDSO "nosegneg" note is
designed specifically to make this easy.  You just have to flip one bit at
boot time.  This patch makes Xen flip the bit, so a CONFIG_XEN=y kernel on
bare hardware does not make glibc use the less-optimized library builds.

This moves all the common parts for the Sparc, Sparc64 and PowerPC
of_device.c files into drivers/of/device.c.

Apart from the simple move, Sparc gains of_match_node() and a call to
of_node_put in of_release_dev().  PowerPC gains better recovery if
device_create_file() fails in of_device_register().

02ab3f7079 sh: intc - shared IPR and INTC2 controller
This is the second version of the shared interrupt controller patch
for the sh architecture, fixing up handling of intc_reg_fns[].

The three main advantages with this controller over the existing
ones are:

	- Both priority (ipr) and bitmap (intc2) registers are
	  supported
	- External pin sense configuration is supported, ie edge
	  vs level triggered
	- CPU/Board specific code maps 1:1 with datasheet for
	  easy verification

This controller can easily coexist with the current IPR and INTC2
controllers, but the idea is that CPUs/Boards should be moved over
to this controller over time so we have a single code base to
maintain.

2d9ce177e6 i386: Allow KVM on i386 nonpae
Currently, CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64 both enables boot-time checking of
the cmpxchg64b feature and enables compilation of the set_64bit() family.
Since the option is dependent on PAE, and since KVM depends on set_64bit(),
this effectively disables KVM on i386 nopae.

Simplify by removing the config option altogether: the boot check is made
dependent on CONFIG_X86_PAE directly, and the set_64bit() family is exposed
without constraints.  It is up to users to check for the feature flag (KVM
does not as virtualiation extensions imply its existence).

I did it on purpose (and gave the warning a miss...) and I consider
iosapic_free_rte() is no longer needed.

I decided to remain iosapic_rte_info to keep gsi-to-irq binding
after device disable. Indeed it needs some extra memory, but it
is only "sizeof(iosapic_rte_info) * <the number of removed devices>"
bytes and has no memory leak becasue re-enabled devices use the
iosapic_rte_info which they used before disabling.

ea02e3dde3 FRV: work around a possible compiler bug
Work around a possible bug in the FRV compiler.

What appears to be happening is that gcc resolves the
__builtin_constant_p() in kmalloc() to true, but then fails to reduce the
therefore constant conditions in the if-statements it guards to constant

When compiling with -O2 or -Os, one single spurious error crops up in
cpuup_callback() in mm/slab.c.  This can be avoided by making the memsize
variable const.

86ead9caf9 s390: Put allocated ELF notes in read-only data segment
This changes the s390 linker script to use the asm-generic NOTES macro so that
ELF note sections with SHF_ALLOC set are linked into the kernel image along
with other read-only data.  The PT_NOTE also points to their location.

This paves the way for putting useful build-time information into ELF notes
that can be found easily later in a kernel memory dump.

b6a2fea393 mm: variable length argument support
Remove the arg+env limit of MAX_ARG_PAGES by copying the strings directly from
the old mm into the new mm.

We create the new mm before the binfmt code runs, and place the new stack at
the very top of the address space.  Once the binfmt code runs and figures out
where the stack should be, we move it downwards.

It is a bit peculiar in that we have one task with two mm's, one of which is
inactive.

f34e3b61f2 use the new percpu interface for shared data
Currently most of the per cpu data, which is accessed by different cpus,
has a ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp attribute.  Move all this data to the
new per cpu shared data section: .data.percpu.shared_aligned.

This will seperate the percpu data which is referenced frequently by other
cpus from the local only percpu data.

5fb7dc37dc define new percpu interface for shared data
per cpu data section contains two types of data.  One set which is
exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu,
but also shared by remote cpus.  In the current kernel, these two sets are
not clearely separated out.  This can potentially cause the same data
cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in
unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus.

One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per
cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end.  Because of the padding at
both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the
interface to achieve this is not clean.

This patch:

Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

3d7e33825d jprobes: make jprobes a little safer for users
I realise jprobes are a razor-blades-included type of interface, but that
doesn't mean we can't try and make them safer to use.  This guy I know once
wrote code like this:

struct jprobe jp = { .kp.symbol_name = "foo", .entry = "jprobe_foo" };

And then his kernel exploded. Oops.

This patch adds an arch hook, arch_deref_entry_point() (I don't like it
either) which takes the void * in a struct jprobe, and gives back the text
address that it represents.

We can then use that in register_jprobe() to check that the entry point we're
passed is actually in the kernel text, rather than just some random value.
