a2c606d53a x86: avoid high BIOS area when allocating address space
This prevents allocation of the last 2MB before 4GB.

The experiment described here shows Windows 7 ignoring the last 1MB:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23542#c27

This patch ignores the top 2MB instead of just 1MB because H. Peter Anvin
says "There will be ROM at the top of the 32-bit address space; it's a fact
of the architecture, and on at least older systems it was common to have a
shadow 1 MiB below."

4dc2287c18 x86: avoid E820 regions when allocating address space
When we allocate address space, e.g., to assign it to a PCI device, don't
allocate anything mentioned in the BIOS E820 memory map.

On recent machines (2008 and newer), we assign PCI resources from the
windows described by the ACPI PCI host bridge _CRS.  On many Dell
machines, these windows overlap some E820 reserved areas, e.g.,

    BIOS-e820: 00000000bfe4dc00 - 00000000c0000000 (reserved)
    pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [mem 0xbff00000-0xdfffffff]

If we put devices at 0xbff00000, they don't work, probably because
that's really RAM, not I/O memory.  This patch prevents that by removing
the 0xbfe4dc00-0xbfffffff area from the "available" resource.

I'm not very happy with this solution because Windows solves the problem
differently (it seems to ignore E820 reserved areas and it allocates
top-down instead of bottom-up; details at comment 45 of the bugzilla
below).  That means we're vulnerable to BIOS defects that Windows would not
trip over.  For example, if BIOS described a device in ACPI but didn't
mention it in E820, Windows would work fine but Linux would fail.

30919b0bf3 x86: avoid low BIOS area when allocating address space
This implements arch_remove_reservations() so allocate_resource() can
avoid any arch-specific reserved areas.  This currently just avoids the
BIOS area (the first 1MB), but could be used for E820 reserved areas if
that turns out to be necessary.

We previously avoided this area in pcibios_align_resource().  This patch
moves the test from that PCI-specific path to a generic path, so *all*
resource allocations will avoid this area.

fcb119183c resources: add arch hook for preventing allocation in reserved areas
This adds arch_remove_reservations(), which an arch can implement if it
needs to protect part of the address space from allocation.

Sometimes that can be done by just putting a region in the resource tree,
but there are cases where that doesn't work well.  For example, x86 BIOS
E820 reservations are not related to devices, so they may overlap part of,
all of, or more than a device resource, so they may not end up at the
correct spot in the resource tree.

24ff33ac69 ASoC: soc-dapm: Introduce the new snd_soc_dapm_virt_mux type
This new type is a virtual version of snd_soc_dapm_mux.  It is used
when a backing register value is not necessary for deciding which
input path to connect.  A simple virtual enumeration control e.g.
SOC_DAPM_ENUM_VIRT() can be exposed to userspace which will be used
to choose which path to connect.

The snd_soc_dapm_virt_mux type ensures that during the initial
path setup, the first (which is also the default) input path will
be connected.

909ea96468 core: Replace __get_cpu_var with __this_cpu_read if not used for an address.
__get_cpu_var() can be replaced with this_cpu_read and will then use a
single read instruction with implied address calculation to access the
correct per cpu instance.

However, the address of a per cpu variable passed to __this_cpu_read()
cannot be determined (since it's an implied address conversion through
segment prefixes).  Therefore apply this only to uses of __get_cpu_var
where the address of the variable is not used.

780f36d8b3 xen: Use this_cpu_ops
Use this_cpu_ops to reduce code size and simplify things in various places.

V3->V4:
	Move instance of this_cpu_inc_return to a later patchset so that
	this patch can be applied without infrastructure changes.

c7b92516a9 fs: Use this_cpu_xx operations in buffer.c
Optimize various per cpu area operations through these new percpu
operations.  These operations avoid address calculations through the
use of segment prefixes and multiple memory references through RMW
instructions etc.

Reduces code size:

Before:

christoph@linux-2.6$ size fs/buffer.o
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  19169	     80	     28	  19277	   4b4d	fs/buffer.o

After:

christoph@linux-2.6$ size fs/buffer.o
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
  19138	     80	     28	  19246	   4b2e	fs/buffer.o

V3->V4:
	- Move the use of this_cpu_inc_return into a later patch so that
	  this one can go in without percpu infrastructure changes.

5309665dcc fakekey: Simplify speakup_fake_key_pressed through this_cpu_ops
The whole function can be expressed as a simple this_cpu_read() operation.
The function overhead is now likely multiple times that of the single
instruction that is executed in it.

4a6f4fe837 drivers: Replace __get_cpu_var with __this_cpu_read if not used for an address.
__get_cpu_var() can be replaced with this_cpu_read and will then use a single
read instruction with implied address calculation to access the correct per cpu
instance.

However, the address of a per cpu variable passed to __this_cpu_read() cannot be
determed (since its an implied address conversion through segment prefixes).
Therefore apply this only to uses of __get_cpu_var where the addres of the
variable is not used.

V3->V4:
	- Move one instance of this_cpu_inc_return to a later patch
	  so that this one can go in without percpu infrastructrure
	  changes.

12938a9220 vmstat: Optimize zone counter modifications through the use of this cpu operations
this cpu operations can be used to slightly optimize the function. The
changes will avoid some address calculations and replace them with the
use of the percpu segment register.

If one would have this_cpu_inc_return and this_cpu_dec_return then it
would be possible to optimize inc_zone_page_state and
dec_zone_page_state even more.

V1->V2:
	- Fix __dec_zone_state overflow handling
	- Use s8 variables for temporary storage.

V2->V3:
	- Put __percpu annotations in correct places.
