In __restore_cpu_power8 we determine if we are HV and if not, we return
before setting HV only resources.
Unfortunately we forgot to restore the link register from r11 before
returning.
This will happen on boot and with secondary CPUs not coming online.
This adds the missing link register restore.

In __after_prom_start we copy the kernel down to zero in two calls to
copy_and_flush. After the first call (copy from 0 to copy_to_here:)
we jump to the newly copied code soon after.
Unfortunately there's no isync between the copy of this code and the
jump to it. Hence it's possible that stale instructions could still be
in the icache or pipeline before we branch to it.
We've seen this on real machines and it's results in no console output
after:
calling quiesce...
returning from prom_init
The below adds an isync to ensure that the copy and flushing has
completed before any branching to the new instructions occurs.

Add a PCI quirk for VGA devices on Power to set the default VGA device.
Ensures a default VGA is always set if a graphics adapter is present,
even if firmware did not initialize it. If more than one graphics
adapter is present, ensure the one initialized by firmware is set
as the default VGA device. This ensures that X autoconfiguration

Powerpc initializes the DMA and IRQ information in pci_scan_child_bus()->
pcibios_fixup_bus()->pcibios_setup_bus_devices(). But for the devices
which are hotpluged, bus->is added has been set for the first scan of the
PCI-e bus, so the initialization code won't be called. Then the hotpluged
devices' driver will fail to load.
For example :
The PCI-e device 0001:03:00.0 is the Intel PCI-e e1000e network card, remove
it from the system:
# echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0001\:03\:00.0/remove
# e1000e 0001:03:00.0 eth0: removed PHC
Rescan it from it's bus:
# echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0001\:02\:00.0/rescan
...
e1000e 0001:03:00.0: Disabling ASPM L0s L1
e1000e 0001:03:00.0: No usable DMA configuration, aborting
e1000e: probe of 0001:03:00.0 failed with error -5
So we move the DMA & IRQ initialization code from pcibios_setup_devices() and
construct a new function pcibios_enable_device. We call this function in
pcibios_enable_device, which will be called by PCI-e rescan code. At the
meanwhile, we avoid the the impact on cardbus. I also validate this patch with
silicon's PCIe-sata which encounters the IRQ issue.

This adds new debug feature information so that the DAWR can be
identified by userspace tools like GDB.
Unfortunately the DAWR doesn't sit nicely into the current description
that ptrace provides to userspace via struct ppc_debug_info. It doesn't
allow for specifying that only some ranges are possible or even the end
alignment constraints (DAWR only allows 512 byte wide ranges which can't
cross a 512 byte boundary).
After talking to Edjunior Machado (GDB ppc developer), it was decided
this was the best approach. Just mark it as debug feature DAWR and
tools like GDB can internally decide the constraints.

This patch change the kernel VSID range so that we limit VSID_BITS to 37.
This enables us to support 64TB with 65 bit VA (37+28). Without this patch
we have boot hangs on platforms that only support 65 bit VA.
With this patch we now have proto vsid generated as below:
We first generate a 37-bit "proto-VSID". Proto-VSIDs are generated
from mmu context id and effective segment id of the address.
For user processes max context id is limited to ((1ul << 19) - 5)
for kernel space, we use the top 4 context ids to map address as below
0x7fffc - [ 0xc000000000000000 - 0xc0003fffffffffff ]
0x7fffd - [ 0xd000000000000000 - 0xd0003fffffffffff ]

Commit 5ac47f7a6e (powerpc: Relocate prom_init.c on 64bit) made
prom_init.c position independent by manually relocating its entries
in the TOC.
We get the address of the TOC entries with the __prom_init_toc_start
linker symbol. If __prom_init_toc_start ends up as an entry in the
TOC then we need to add an offset to get the current address. This is
the case for older toolchains.
On the other hand, if we have a newer toolchain that supports
-mcmodel=medium then __prom_init_toc_start will be created by a
relative offset from r2 (the TOC pointer). Since r2 has already been
relocated, nothing more needs to be done. Adding an offset in this
case is wrong and Aaro Koskinen and Alexander Graf have noticed noticed
G5 and OpenBIOS breakage.
Alan Modra suggested we just use r2 to get at the TOC which is simpler
and works with both old and new toolchains.

syscall entry path. Unfortunately, this trashes the link stack as the
address we are going to is not associated with the earlier mflr.
This patch simply converts us to used the count register (volatile over
syscalls anyway) instead. This is much better at predicting in this
scenario and doesn't trash link stack causing a bunch of additional
branch mispredicts later. Benchmarking this on POWER8 saves a bunch of

lseek() and truncate() on sparc really need sign extension
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

Pull vfs pile (part one) from Al Viro:
"Assorted stuff - cleaning namei.c up a bit, fixing ->d_name/->d_parent
locking violations, etc.
The most visible changes here are death of FS_REVAL_DOT (replaced with
"has ->d_weak_revalidate()") and a new helper getting from struct file
to inode. Some bits of preparation to xattr method interface changes.
Misc patches by various people sent this cycle *and* ocfs2 fixes from
several cycles ago that should've been upstream right then.
PS: the next vfs pile will be xattr stuff."
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (46 commits)
saner proc_get_inode() calling conventions
proc: avoid extra pde_put() in proc_fill_super()
fs: change return values from -EACCES to -EPERM
fs/exec.c: make bprm_mm_init() static
ocfs2/dlm: use GFP_ATOMIC inside a spin_lock
ocfs2: fix possible use-after-free with AIO
ocfs2: Fix oops in ocfs2_fast_symlink_readpage() code path
get_empty_filp()/alloc_file() leave both ->f_pos and ->f_version zero
target: writev() on single-element vector is pointless
export kernel_write(), convert open-coded instances
fs: encode_fh: return FILEID_INVALID if invalid fid_type
kill f_vfsmnt
vfs: kill FS_REVAL_DOT by adding a d_weak_revalidate dentry op
nfsd: handle vfs_getattr errors in acl protocol
switch vfs_getattr() to struct path
default SET_PERSONALITY() in linux/elf.h
ceph: prepopulate inodes only when request is aborted
d_hash_and_lookup(): export, switch open-coded instances
9p: switch v9fs_set_create_acl() to inode+fid, do it before d_instantiate()
9p: split dropping the acls from v9fs_set_create_acl()
...
lockdep, but it's a mechanical change.
Cheers,

Pull signal handling cleanups from Al Viro:
"This is the first pile; another one will come a bit later and will
contain SYSCALL_DEFINE-related patches.
- a bunch of signal-related syscalls (both native and compat)
unified.
- a bunch of compat syscalls switched to COMPAT_SYSCALL_DEFINE
(fixing several potential problems with missing argument
validation, while we are at it)
- a lot of now-pointless wrappers killed
- a couple of architectures (cris and hexagon) forgot to save
altstack settings into sigframe, even though they used the
(uninitialized) values in sigreturn; fixed.
- microblaze fixes for delivery of multiple signals arriving at once
- saner set of helpers for signal delivery introduced, several
architectures switched to using those."

Pull powerpc updates from Benjamin Herrenschmidt:
"So from the depth of frozen Minnesota, here's the powerpc pull request
for 3.9. It has a few interesting highlights, in addition to the
usual bunch of bug fixes, minor updates, embedded device tree updates
and new boards:
- Hand tuned asm implementation of SHA1 (by Paulus & Michael
Ellerman)
- Support for Doorbell interrupts on Power8 (kind of fast
thread-thread IPIs) by Ian Munsie
- Long overdue cleanup of the way we handle relocation of our open
firmware trampoline (prom_init.c) on 64-bit by Anton Blanchard
- Support for saving/restoring & context switching the PPR (Processor
Priority Register) on server processors that support it. This
allows the kernel to preserve thread priorities established by
userspace. By Haren Myneni.
- DAWR (new watchpoint facility) support on Power8 by Michael Neuling
- Ability to change the DSCR (Data Stream Control Register) which
controls cache prefetching on a running process via ptrace by
Alexey Kardashevskiy
- Support for context switching the TAR register on Power8 (new
branch target register meant to be used by some new specific
userspace perf event interrupt facility which is yet to be enabled)
by Ian Munsie.
- Improve preservation of the CFAR register (which captures the
origin of a branch) on various exception conditions by Paulus.
- Move the Bestcomm DMA driver from arch powerpc to drivers/dma where
it belongs by Philippe De Muyter
- Support for Transactional Memory on Power8 by Michael Neuling
(based on original work by Matt Evans). For those curious about
the feature, the patch contains a pretty good description."
(See commit db8ff90702: "powerpc: Documentation for transactional
memory on powerpc" for the mentioned description added to the file
Documentation/powerpc/transactional_memory.txt)

Disable hard IRQ before kexec a new kernel image.
Not doing it can result in corrupted data in the memory segments
reserved for the new kernel.

Pull timer changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Main changes:
- ntp: Add CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC: a generic RTC driver facility
complementing the existing CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS, which uses NTP to
keep the hardware clock updated.
- posix-timers: Fix clock_adjtime to always return timex data on
success. This is changing the ABI, but no breakage was expected
and found - caution is warranted nevertheless.
- platform persistent clock improvements/cleanups.
- clockevents: refactor timer broadcast handling to be more generic
and less duplicated with matching architecture code (mostly ARM
motivated.)
