Currently swiotlb is the only consumer for swiotlb_bounce. Since that is the
case it doesn't make much sense to be exporting it so make it a static
function only.
In addition we can save a few more lines of code by making it so that it
accepts the DMA address as a physical address instead of a virtual one. This
is the last piece in essentially pushing all of the DMA address values to use
physical addresses in swiotlb.
In order to clarify things since we now have 2 physical addresses in use
inside of swiotlb_bounce I am renaming phys to orig_addr, and dma_addr to
tlb_addr. This way is should be clear that orig_addr is contained within
io_orig_addr and tlb_addr is an address within the io_tlb_addr buffer.

This change makes it so that swiotlb_tbl_map_single will return a physical
address instead of a virtual address when called. The advantage to this once
again is that we are avoiding a number of virt_to_phys and phys_to_virt
translations by working with everything as a physical address.
One change I had to make in order to support using physical addresses is that
I could no longer trust 0 to be a invalid physical address on all platforms.
So instead I made it so that ~0 is returned on error. This should never be a
valid return value as it implies that only one byte would be available for
use.

Other than ix86, x86-64 on EFI so far didn't set the
{g,s}et_wallclock accessors to the EFI routines, thus
incorrectly using raw RTC accesses instead.
Simply removing the #ifdef around the respective code isn't
enough, however: While so far early get-time calls were done in
physical mode, this doesn't work properly for x86-64, as virtual
addresses would still need to be set up for all runtime regions
(which wasn't the case on the system I have access to), so
instead the patch moves the call to efi_enter_virtual_mode()
ahead (which in turn allows to drop all code related to calling
efi-get-time in physical mode).
Additionally the earlier calling of efi_set_executable()
requires the CPA code to cope, i.e. during early boot it must be
avoided to call cpa_flush_array(), as the first thing this
function does is a BUG_ON(irqs_disabled()).
Also make the two EFI functions in question here static -
they're not being referenced elsewhere.
History:
This commit was originally merged as bacef661ac ("x86-64/efi:
Use EFI to deal with platform wall clock") but it resulted in some
ASUS machines no longer booting due to a firmware bug, and so was
reverted in f026cfa82f. A pre-emptive fix for the buggy ASUS
firmware was merged in 03a1c254975e ("x86, efi: 1:1 pagetable
mapping for virtual EFI calls") so now this patch can be
reapplied.

The existing EFI variables code only supports variables of up to 1024
bytes. This limitation existed in version 0.99 of the EFI specification,
but was removed before any full releases. Since variables can now be
larger than a single page, sysfs isn't the best interface for this. So,
instead, let's add a filesystem. Variables can be read, written and
created, with the first 4 bytes of each variable representing its UEFI
attributes. The create() method doesn't actually commit to flash since
zero-length variables can't exist per-spec.

Even before channel contexts/multi-channel, having a
single global TX power limit was already problematic,
in particular if two managed interfaces connected to
two APs with different power constraints. The channel
context introduction completely broke this though and
in fact I had disabled TX power configuration there
for drivers using channel contexts.
Change everything to track TX power per interface so
that different user settings and different channel
maxima are treated correctly. Also continue tracking
the global TX power though for compatibility with
applications that attempt to configure the wiphy's
TX power globally.

Allow drivers (and mac80211) to advertise support for
per-interface TX power configuration. When the TX power
is configured for the wiphy, the wdev will be NULL and
the driver can still handle that, but when a wdev is
given the TX power can be set only for that wdev now.

In SR-IOV mode the PF driver acts as the uplink port and is
used to send control packets e.g. lldpad, stp, etc.
eth0.1 eth0.2 eth0
VF VF PF
| | | <-- stand-in for uplink
| | |
--------------------------
| Embedded Switch |
--------------------------

MAC <-- uplink
But the embedded switch is setup to forward multicast addresses
to all interfaces both VFs and PF and onto the physical link.
This results in reserved MAC addresses used by control protocols
to be forwarded over the switch onto the VF.
In the LLDP case the PF sends an LLDPDU and it is currently
being forwarded to all the VFs who then see the PF as a peer.
This is incorrect.

vtime_account() doesn't have the same role in
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING and CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING.
In the first case it handles time accounting in any context. In
the second case it only handles irq time accounting.
So when vtime_account() is called from outside vtime_account_irq_*()
this call is pointless to CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING.
To fix the confusion, change vtime_account() to irqtime_account_irq()
in CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING. This way we ensure future account_vtime()
calls won't waste useless cycles in the irqtime APIs.

With CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING, when vtime_account()
is called in irq entry/exit, we perform a check on the
context: if we are interrupting the idle task we
account the pending cputime to idle, otherwise account
to system time or its sub-areas: tsk->stime, hardirq time,
softirq time, ...
However this check for idle only concerns the hardirq entry
and softirq entry:
* Hardirq may directly interrupt the idle task, in which case
we need to flush the pending CPU time to idle.
* The idle task may be directly interrupted by a softirq if
it calls local_bh_enable(). There is probably no such call
in any idle task but we need to cover every case. Ksoftirqd
is not concerned because the idle time is flushed on context
switch and softirq in the end of hardirq have the idle time
already flushed from the hardirq entry.
In the other cases we always account to system/irq time:
* On hardirq exit we account the time to hardirq time.
* On softirq exit we account the time to softirq time.
To optimize this and avoid the indirect call to vtime_account()
and the checks it performs, specialize the vtime irq APIs and
only perform the check on irq entry. Irq exit can directly call
vtime_account_system().
CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING behaviour doesn't change and directly
maps to its own vtime_account() implementation. One may want
to take benefits from the new APIs to optimize irq time accounting
as well in the future.

Switching to or from guest context is done on ioctl context.
So by the time we call kvm_guest_enter() or kvm_guest_exit()
we know we are not running the idle task.
As a result, we can directly account the cputime using
vtime_account_system().
There are two good reasons to do this:
* We avoid some useless checks on guest switch. It optimizes
a bit this fast path.
* In the case of CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING, calling vtime_account()
checks for irq time to account. This is pointless since we know
we are not in an irq on guest switch. This is wasting cpu cycles
for no good reason. vtime_account_system() OTOH is a no-op in
this config option.
* We can remove the irq disable/enable around kvm guest switch in s390.
A further optimization may consist in introducing a vtime_account_guest()
that directly calls account_guest_time().

vtime_account_system() currently has only one caller with
vtime_account() which is irq safe.
Now we are going to call it from other places like kvm where
irqs are not always disabled by the time we account the cputime.
So let's make it irqsafe. The arch implementation part is now
prefixed with "__".
vtime_account_idle() arch implementation is prefixed accordingly
to stay consistent.
