0f0a00beb8 [ARM] Remove needless linux/ptrace.h includes
Lots of places in arch/arm were needlessly including linux/ptrace.h,
resumably because we used to pass a struct pt_regs to interrupt
handlers.  Now that we don't, all these ptrace.h includes are
redundant.

7ab77e03c1 Longhaul - Revert ACPI C3 on Longhaul ver. 2
Support for Longhaul ver.  2 broke driver for VIA C3 Eden 600MHz with
Samuel 2 core.  Processor is not able to switch frequency anymore.  I
don't know much about this issue at the moment, but until (if ever) I

faea623464 [MIPS] Retry {save,restore}_fp_context if failed in atomic context.
The save_fp_context()/restore_fp_context() might sleep on accessing
user stack and therefore might lose FPU ownership in middle of them.

If these function failed due to "in_atomic" test in do_page_fault,
touch the sigcontext area in non-atomic context and retry these
save/restore operation.

This is a replacement of a (broken) fix which was titled "Allow CpU

390cbb56a7 [POWERPC] Fix detection of loader-supplied initrd on OF platforms
Commit 79c8541924 introduced code to move
the initrd if it was in a place where it would get overwritten by the
kernel image.  Unfortunately this exposed the fact that the code that
checks whether the values passed in r3 and r4 are intended to indicate
the start address and size of an initrd image was not as thorough as the
kernel's checks.  The symptom is that on OF-based platforms, the
bootwrapper can cause an exception which causes the system to drop back
into OF.

Previously it didn't matter so much if the code incorrectly thought that
there was an initrd, since the values for start and size were just passed
through to the kernel.  Now the bootwrapper needs to apply the same checks
as the kernel since it is now using the initrd data itself (in the process
of copying it if necessary).  This adds the code to do that.

1d51c69fb6 [SPARC]: avoid CHILD_MAX and OPEN_MAX constants
I don't figure anyone really cares about SunOS syscall emulation, and I
certainly don't.  But I'm getting rid of uses of the OPEN_MAX and CHILD_MAX
compile-time constant, and these are almost the only ones.  OPEN_MAX is a
bogus constant with no meaning about anything.  The RLIMIT_NOFILE resource
limit is what sysconf (_SC_OPEN_MAX) actually wants to return.

The CHILD_MAX cases weren't actually using anything I want to get rid of,
but I noticed that they are there and are wrong too.  The CHILD_MAX value
is not really unlimited as a -1 return from sysconf indicates.  The
RLIMIT_NPROC resource limit is what sysconf (_SC_CHILD_MAX) wants to return.

0727702a3a [POWERPC] ibmebus: change probe/remove interface from using loc-code to DT path
In some cases, multiple OFDT nodes might share the same location code, so
the location code is not a unique identifier for an OFDT node. Changed the
ibmebus probe/remove interface to use the DT path of the device node instead
of the location code.

The DT path must be written into probe/remove right as it would appear in
the "devspec" attribute of the ebus device: relative to the DT root, with a
leading slash and without a trailing slash. One trailing newline will not
hurt; multiple newlines will (like perl's chomp()).

Example:

 Add a device "/proc/device-tree/foo@12345678" to ibmebus like this:
    echo /foo@12345678 > /sys/bus/ibmebus/probe

 Remove the device like this:

ee4f2ea486 [POWERPC] Fix 32-bit mm operations when not using BATs
On hash table based 32 bits powerpc's, the hash management code runs with
a big spinlock. It's thus important that it never causes itself a hash
fault. That code is generally safe (it does memory accesses in real mode
among other things) with the exception of the actual access to the code
itself. That is, the kernel text needs to be accessible without taking
a hash miss exceptions.

This is currently guaranteed by having a BAT register mapping part of the
linear mapping permanently, which includes the kernel text. But this is
not true if using the "nobats" kernel command line option (which can be
useful for debugging) and will not be true when using DEBUG_PAGEALLOC
implemented in a subsequent patch.

This patch fixes this by pre-faulting in the hash table pages that hit
the kernel text, and making sure we never evict such a page under hash
pressure.

a741e67969 [POWERPC] Make tlb flush batch use lazy MMU mode
The current tlb flush code on powerpc 64 bits has a subtle race since we
lost the page table lock due to the possible faulting in of new PTEs
after a previous one has been removed but before the corresponding hash
entry has been evicted, which can leads to all sort of fatal problems.

This patch reworks the batch code completely. It doesn't use the mmu_gather
stuff anymore. Instead, we use the lazy mmu hooks that were added by the
paravirt code. They have the nice property that the enter/leave lazy mmu
mode pair is always fully contained by the PTE lock for a given range
of PTEs. Thus we can guarantee that all batches are flushed on a given
CPU before it drops that lock.

We also generalize batching for any PTE update that require a flush.

Batching is now enabled on a CPU by arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and
disabled by arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(). The code epects that this is
always contained within a PTE lock section so no preemption can happen
and no PTE insertion in that range from another CPU. When batching
is enabled on a CPU, every PTE updates that need a hash flush will
use the batch for that flush.

e4ee3891db [POWERPC] Alignment exception uses __get/put_user_inatomic
Make the alignment exception handler use the new _inatomic variants
of __get/put_user. This fixes erroneous warnings in the very rare
cases where we manage to have copy_tofrom_user_inatomic() trigger
an alignment exception.

e48059225c [POWERPC] Add correct interrupt property for pegasos ide
The firmware assigns irq 20/21 to the VIA IDE device on Pegasos.
But the required interrupt is 14/15.
Maybe someone confused decimal vs. hexadecimal values.

721151d004 [POWERPC] Allow drivers to map individual 4k pages to userspace
Some drivers have resources that they want to be able to map into
userspace that are 4k in size.  On a kernel configured with 64k pages
we currently end up mapping the 4k we want plus another 60k of
physical address space, which could contain anything.  This can
introduce security problems, for example in the case of an infiniband
adaptor where the other 60k could contain registers that some other
program is using for its communications.

This patch adds a new function, remap_4k_pfn, which drivers can use to
map a single 4k page to userspace regardless of whether the kernel is
using a 4k or a 64k page size.  Like remap_pfn_range, it would
typically be called in a driver's mmap function.  It only maps a
single 4k page, which on a 64k page kernel appears replicated 16 times
throughout a 64k page.  On a 4k page kernel it reduces to a call to
remap_pfn_range.

The way this works on a 64k kernel is that a new bit, _PAGE_4K_PFN,
gets set on the linux PTE.  This alters the way that __hash_page_4K
computes the real address to put in the HPTE.  The RPN field of the
linux PTE becomes the 4k RPN directly rather than being interpreted as
a 64k RPN.  Since the RPN field is 32 bits, this means that physical
addresses being mapped with remap_4k_pfn have to be below 2^44,
i.e. 0x100000000000.

The patch also factors out the code in arch/powerpc/mm/hash_utils_64.c
that deals with demoting a process to use 4k pages into one function
that gets called in the various different places where we need to do
that.  There were some discrepancies between exactly what was done in
the various places, such as a call to spu_flush_all_slbs in one case
but not in others.
