b7ab24a0da spi: davinci: simplify calculation of edma acount value
The EDMA acount (called data_type in davinci_spi_bufs_dma())
is simply the bytes_per_word obtained in the transfer setup
function. The current code calculates the acount value from
bytes_per_word in a convoluted manner. Simplify the code.

cfbc5d1d8f spi: davinci: remove unnecessary data transmit on CS disable
On TI DaVinci's SPI controller, the SPIDAT1 register which
controls the chip slect status, also has data transmit register
in the lower 16 bits. Writing to the whole 32-bits triggers
an additional data transmit every time the chip select is disabled.

While most SPI slaves cope-up with this, some cannot. This
patch fixes this by doing a 16-bit write on the upper half
of the SPIDAT1 register

While at it, group the SPIGCR1 register related defines seperately
from SPIDAT1 register defines.

84e1c6bb38 x86: Add RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules
This patch is a logical extension of the protection provided by
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to LKMs. The protection is provided by
splitting module_core and module_init into three logical parts
each and setting appropriate page access permissions for each
individual section:

 1. Code: RO+X
 2. RO data: RO+NX
 3. RW data: RW+NX

In order to achieve proper protection, layout_sections() have
been modified to align each of the three parts mentioned above
onto page boundary. Next, the corresponding page access
permissions are set right before successful exit from
load_module(). Further, free_module() and sys_init_module have
been modified to set module_core and module_init as RW+NX right
before calling module_free().

By default, the original section layout and access flags are
preserved. When compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y,
the patch will page-align each group of sections to ensure that
each page contains only one type of content and will enforce
RO/NX for each group of pages.

  -v1: Initial proof-of-concept patch.
  -v2: The patch have been re-written to reduce the number of #ifdefs
       and to make it architecture-agnostic. Code formatting has also
       been corrected.
  -v3: Opportunistic RO/NX protection is now unconditional. Section
       page-alignment is enabled when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y.
  -v4: Removed most macros and improved coding style.
  -v5: Changed page-alignment and RO/NX section size calculation
  -v6: Fixed comments. Restricted RO/NX enforcement to x86 only
  -v7: Introduced CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX, added
       calls to set_all_modules_text_rw() and set_all_modules_text_ro()
       in ftrace
  -v8: updated for compatibility with linux 2.6.33-rc5
  -v9: coding style fixes
 -v10: more coding style fixes
 -v11: minor adjustments for -tip

67e86250f8 sched: Introduce hierarchal order on shares update list
Avoid duplicate shares update calls by ensuring children always appear before
parents in rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list.

This allows us to do a single in-order traversal for update_shares().

Since we always enqueue in bottom-up order this reduces to 2 cases:

1) Our parent is already in the list, e.g.

   root
     \
      b
      /\
      c d* (root->b->c already enqueued)

Since d's parent is enqueued we push it to the head of the list, implicitly ahead of b.

2) Our parent does not appear in the list (or we have no parent)

In this case we enqueue to the tail of the list, if our parent is subsequently enqueued
(bottom-up) it will appear to our right by the same rule.

e33078baa4 sched: Fix update_cfs_load() synchronization
Using cfs_rq->nr_running is not sufficient to synchronize update_cfs_load with
the put path since nr_running accounting occurs at deactivation.

It's also not safe to make the removal decision based on load_avg as this fails
with both high periods and low shares.  Resolve this by clipping history after
4 periods without activity.

Note: the above will always occur from update_shares() since in the
last-task-sleep-case that task will still be cfs_rq->curr when update_cfs_load
is called.

f0d7442a59 sched: Fix load corruption from update_cfs_shares()
As part of enqueue_entity both a new entity weight and its contribution to the
queuing cfs_rq / rq are updated.  Since update_cfs_shares will only update the
queueing weights when the entity is on_rq (which in this case it is not yet),
there's a dependency loop here:

update_cfs_shares needs account_entity_enqueue to update cfs_rq->load.weight
account_entity_enqueue needs the updated weight for the queuing cfs_rq load[*]

Fix this and avoid spurious dequeue/enqueues by issuing update_cfs_shares as
if we had accounted the enqueue already.

This was also resulting in rq->load corruption previously.

[*]: this dependency also exists when using the group cfs_rq w/
     update_cfs_shares as the weight of the enqueued entity changes
     without the load being updated.

48c5ccae88 sched: Simplify cpu-hot-unplug task migration
While discussing the need for sched_idle_next(), Oleg remarked that
since try_to_wake_up() ensures sleeping tasks will end up running on a
sane cpu, we can do away with migrate_live_tasks().

If we then extend the existing hack of migrating current from
CPU_DYING to migrating the full rq worth of tasks from CPU_DYING, the
need for the sched_idle_next() abomination disappears as well, since
idle will be the only possible thread left after the migration thread
stops.

This greatly simplifies the hot-unplug task migration path, as can be
seen from the resulting code reduction (and about half the new lines
are comments).

94e8ba7286 irq_work: Drop cmpxchg() result
The compiler warned us about:

 kernel/irq_work.c: In function 'irq_work_run':
 kernel/irq_work.c:148: warning: value computed is not used

Dropping the cmpxchg() result is indeed weird, but correct -
so annotate away the warning.

8882135bcd perf: Fix owner-list vs exit
Oleg noticed that a perf-fd keeping a reference on the creating task
leads to a few funny side effects.

There's two different aspects to this:

  - kernel based perf-events, these should not take out
    a reference on the creating task and appear on the task's
    event list since they're not bound to fds nor visible
    to userspace.

  - fork() and pthread_create(), these can lead to the creating
    task dying (and thus the task's event-list becomming useless)
    but keeping the list and ref alive until the event is closed.

Combined they lead to malfunction of the ptrace hw_tracepoints.

Cure this by not considering kernel based perf_events for the
owner-list and destroying the owner-list when the owner dies.

5bd5a45266 x86: Add NX protection for kernel data
This patch expands functionality of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to set main
(static) kernel data area as NX.

The following steps are taken to achieve this:

 1. Linker script is adjusted so .text always starts and ends on a page bound
 2. Linker script is adjusted so .rodata always start and end on a page boundary
 3. NX is set for all pages from _etext through _end in mark_rodata_ro.
 4. free_init_pages() sets released memory NX in arch/x86/mm/init.c
 5. bios rom is set to x when pcibios is used.

The results of patch application may be observed in the diff of kernel page
table dumps:

64edc8ed5f x86: Fix improper large page preservation
This patch fixes a bug in try_preserve_large_page() which may
result in improper large page preservation and improper
application of page attributes to the memory area outside of the
original change request.

More specifically, the problem manifests itself when set_memory_*()
is called for several pages at the beginning of the large page and
try_preserve_large_page() erroneously concludes that the change can
be applied to whole large page.

The fix consists of 3 parts:

  1. Addition of "required" protection attributes in
     static_protections(), so .data and .bss can be guaranteed to
     stay "RW"

  2. static_protections() is now called for every small
     page within large page to determine compatibility of new
     protection attributes (instead of just small pages within the
     requested range).

  3. Large page can be preserved only if attribute change is
     large-page-aligned and covers whole large page.

 -v1: Try_preserve_large_page() patch for Linux 2.6.34-rc2
 -v2: Replaced pfn check with address check for kernel rw-data

8191c9f692 x86: UV: Address interrupt/IO port operation conflict
This patch for SGI UV systems addresses a problem whereby
interrupt transactions being looped back from a local IOH,
through the hub to a local CPU can (erroneously) conflict with
IO port operations and other transactions.

To workaound this we set a high bit in the APIC IDs used for
interrupts. This bit appears to be ignored by the sockets, but
it avoids the conflict in the hub.
