order, passing the kernel stack pointer off as a user pointer (and vice

Because of the user address range check, that in turn then causes an
EFAULT due to the user pointer range checking failing for the kernel
address. Incorrectly resuling in a failed system call for 32-bit
processes with a 64-bit kernel.
On odder architectures like HP-PA (with separate user/kernel address

[V2: rebased to apply to 20120905 staging-next, no other changes]
This slightly modified ramster codebase is now built entirely on zcache2
and all ramster-specific code is fully contained in a subdirectory.
Ramster extends zcache2 to allow pages compressed via zcache2 to be
"load-balanced" across machines in a cluster. Control and data communication
is done via kernel sockets, and cluster configuration and management is
heavily leveraged from the ocfs2 cluster filesystem.
There are no new features since the codebase introduced into staging at 3.4.
Some cleanup was performed though:
1) Interfaces directly with new zbud
2) Debugfs now used instead of sysfs where possible. Sysfs still
used where necessary for userland cluster configuration.
Ramster is very much a work-in-progress but also does really work!
RAMSTER HIGH LEVEL OVERVIEW (from original V5 posting in Feb 2012)
RAMster implements peer-to-peer transcendent memory, allowing a "cluster" of
kernels to dynamically pool their RAM so that a RAM-hungry workload on one
machine can temporarily and transparently utilize RAM on another machine which
is presumably idle or running a non-RAM-hungry workload. Other than the
already-merged cleancache patchset and frontswap patchset, no core kernel
changes are currently required.
(Note that, unlike previous public descriptions of RAMster, this implementation
does NOT require synchronous "gets" or core networking changes. As of V5,
it also co-exists with ocfs2.)
RAMster combines a clustering and messaging foundation based on the ocfs2
cluster layer with the in-kernel compression implementation of zcache2, and
adds code to glue them together. When a page is "put" to RAMster, it is
compressed and stored locally. Periodically, a thread will "remotify" these
pages by sending them via messages to a remote machine. When the page is
later needed as indicated by a page fault, a "get" is issued. If the data
is local, it is uncompressed and the fault is resolved. If the data is
remote, a message is sent to fetch the data and the faulting thread sleeps;
when the data arrives, the thread awakens, the data is decompressed and
the fault is resolved.
As of V5, clusters up to eight nodes are supported; each node can remotify
pages to one specified node, so clusters can be configured as clients to
a "memory server". Some simple policy is in place that will need to be
refined over time. Larger clusters and fault-resistant protocols can also
be added over time.

[V2: rebased to apply to 20120905 staging-next, no other changes]
The original zcache in staging is a "demo" version, and this is a massive
rewrite. This was intended to result in a merged zcache and ramster, but
that option has been blocked so, to continue forward progress on ramster
and future related projects, only ramster moves to the new codebase.
To differentiate between the old demo zcache and the rewrite, we refer
to the latter as zcache2, config'd as CONFIG_ZCACHE2. Zcache and zcache2
cannot be built in the same kernel, so CONFIG_ZCACHE2 implies !CONFIG_ZCACHE.
This developer still has hope that zcache and zcache2 will be merged
into one codebase. Until then, zcache2 can be considered a one-node
version of ramster.
No history of changes was recorded during the zcache2 rewrite and recreating
a sane one would be a Sisyphean task but, since ramster is still in
staging and has been unchanged since it was merged, presumably this
is acceptable.
This commit also provides the hooks in zcache2 for ramster, but all
ramster-specific code is provided in a separate commit.
Some of the highlights of this rewritten codebase for zcache2:
(Note: If you are not familiar with the tmem terminology, you can review
it here: http://lwn.net/Articles/454795/ )
1. Merge of "demo" zcache and the v1.1 version of zcache in ramster. Zcache
and ramster had a great deal of duplicate code which is now merged.
In essence, zcache2 *is* ramster but with no remote machine available,
but !CONFIG_RAMSTER will avoid compiling lots of ramster-specific code.
2. Allocator. Previously, persistent pools used zsmalloc and ephemeral pools
used zbud. Now a completely rewritten zbud is used for both. Notably
this zbud maintains all persistent (frontswap) and ephemeral (cleancache)
pageframes in separate queues in LRU order.
3. Interaction with page allocator. Zbud does no page allocation/freeing,
it is done entirely in zcache2 where it can be tracked more effectively.
4. Better pre-allocation. Previously, on put, if a new pageframe could not be
pre-allocated, the put would fail, even if the allocator had plenty of
partial pages where the data could be stored; this is now fixed.
5. Ouroboros ("eating its own tail") allocation. If no pageframe can be
allocated AND no partial pages are available, the least-recently-used
ephemeral pageframe is reclaimed immediately (including flushing tmem
pointers to it) and re-used. This ensures that most-recently-used
cleancache pages are more likely to be retained than LRU pages and also
that, as in the core mm subsystem, anonymous pages have a higher priority
than clean page cache pages.
6. Zcache and zbud now use debugfs instead of sysfs. Ramster uses debugfs
where possible and sysfs where necessary. (Some ramster configuration
is done from userspace so some sysfs is necessary.)
7. Modularization. As some have observed, the monolithic zcache-main.c code
included zbud code, which has now been separated into its own code module.
Much ramster-specific code in the old ramster zcache-main.c has also been
moved into ramster.c so that it does not get compiled with !CONFIG_RAMSTER.
8. Rebased to 3.5.
This new codebase also provides hooks for several future new features:
A. WasActive patch, requires some mm/frontswap changes previously posted.
A new version of this patch will be provided separately.
See ifdef __PG_WAS_ACTIVE
B. Exclusive gets. It seems tmem _can_ support exclusive gets with a
minor change to both zcache2 and a small backwards-compatible change
to frontswap.c. Explanation and frontswap patch will be provided
separately. See ifdef FRONTSWAP_HAS_EXCLUSIVE_GETS
C. Ouroboros writeback. Since persistent (frontswap) pages may now also be
reclaimed in LRU order, the foundation is in place to properly writeback
these pages back into the swap cache and then the swap disk. This is still
under development and requires some other mm changes which are prototyped.
See ifdef FRONTSWAP_HAS_UNUSE.
A new feature that desperately needs attention (if someone is looking for
a way to contribute) is kernel module support. A preliminary version of
a patch was posted by Erlangen University and needs to be integrated and
tested for zcache2 and brought up to kernel standards.
If anybody is interested on helping out with any of these, let me know!

[V2: rebased to apply to 20120905 staging-next, no other changes]
To prep for moving the ramster codebase on top of the new
redesigned zcache2 codebase, we remove ramster (as well
as its contained diverged v1.1 version of zcache) entirely.

If the number of ports present on the SoC/board is not the maximum

an easy way to mess the PIO setup for this interface.
This quick fix addresses mis-configuration in USB host platform data

The lp872x_set_dvs() is used for changing the DVS pin state.
This function works only when the DVS platform data is defined.
So don't assume that DVS data is always valid.
In case the platform data is not defined, the DVS data is set to NULL
for skipping the DVS pin control.
DVS selection and GPIO pin number are used for the LP872x DVS pin control.
For better readability, DVS selection argument is added in lp872x_set_dvs().
