compat_alloc_user_space() expects the caller to independently call
access_ok() to verify the returned area. A missing call could
introduce problems on some architectures.
This patch incorporates the access_ok() check into
compat_alloc_user_space() and also adds a sanity check on the length.
The existing compat_alloc_user_space() implementations are renamed
arch_compat_alloc_user_space() and are used as part of the
implementation of the new global function.
This patch assumes NULL will cause __get_user()/__put_user() to either
fail or access userspace on all architectures. This should be
followed by checking the return value of compat_access_user_space()
for NULL in the callers, at which time the access_ok() in the callers
can also be removed.

The slab.h header is required to use the kmalloc() family of functions.
Due to recent kernel changes, this header must be directly included by
code that calls into the memory allocator.
Without this patch, any code which includes this header fails to build.

This makes the 64-bit kernel use 64-bit signed integers for the counter
(effectively supporting 32-bit of active count in the semaphore), thus
avoiding things like overflow of the mmap_sem if you use a really crazy
number of threads
Note: Ideally the type in the structure should be atomic_long_t rather
than "long". However, there's some nasty issues with that. It needs to
be initialized statically -and- lib/rwsem.c does things like
sem->count = RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE;
Now, if you mix in the fact that atomic_* types are actually structures
with one member and note typedefs of a scalar, it makes its really nasty.
So I stuck to what we did before using a long and casts for now.

Architectures implement dma_is_consistent() in different ways (some
misinterpret the definition of API in DMA-API.txt). So it hasn't been so
useful for drivers. We have only one user of the API in tree. Unlikely
out-of-tree drivers use the API.
Even if we fix dma_is_consistent() in some architectures, it doesn't look
useful at all. It was invented long ago for some old systems that can't
allocate coherent memory at all. It's better to export only APIs that are
definitely necessary for drivers.
Let's remove this API.

dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment. Architectures
defines it as ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN (formally ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN). So we
can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations.
Note that some architectures implement dma_get_cache_alignment wrongly.
dma_get_cache_alignment() should return the minimum DMA alignment. So
fully-coherent architectures should return 1. This patch also fixes this
issue.

Now each architecture has the own dma_get_cache_alignment implementation.
dma_get_cache_alignment returns the minimum DMA alignment. Architectures
define it as ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN (it's used to make sure that malloc'ed
buffer is DMA-safe; the buffer doesn't share a cache with the others). So
we can unify dma_get_cache_alignment implementations.
This patch:
dma_get_cache_alignment() needs to know if an architecture defines
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN or not (needs to know if architecture has DMA
alignment restriction). However, slab.h define ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN if
architectures doesn't define it.
Let's rename ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN.
ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN is used only in the internals of slab/slob/slub
(except for crypto).

This patch is against the 2.6.34 source.
Paraphrased from the 1989 BSD patch by David Borman @ cray.com:
These are the changes needed for the kernel to support
LINEMODE in the server.
There is a new bit in the termios local flag word, EXTPROC.
When this bit is set, several aspects of the terminal driver
are disabled. Input line editing, character echo, and mapping
of signals are all disabled. This allows the telnetd to turn
off these functions when in linemode, but still keep track of
what state the user wants the terminal to be in.
New ioctl:
TIOCSIG Generate a signal to processes in the
current process group of the pty.
There is a new mode for packet driver, the TIOCPKT_IOCTL bit.
When packet mode is turned on in the pty, and the EXTPROC bit
is set, then whenever the state of the pty is changed, the
next read on the master side of the pty will have the TIOCPKT_IOCTL
bit set. This allows the process on the server side of the pty
to know when the state of the terminal has changed; it can then
issue the appropriate ioctl to retrieve the new state.
Since the original BSD patches accompanied the source code for telnet
I've left that reference here, but obviously the feature is useful for
any remote terminal protocol, including ssh.
The corresponding feature has existed in the BSD tty driver since 1989.
For historical reference, a good copy of the relevant files can be found
here:

kunmap_atomic() is currently at level -4 on Rusty's "Hard To Misuse"
list[1] ("Follow common convention and you'll get it wrong"), except in
some architectures when CONFIG_DEBUG_HIGHMEM is set[2][3].
kunmap() takes a pointer to a struct page; kunmap_atomic(), however, takes
takes a pointer to within the page itself. This seems to once in a while
trip people up (the convention they are following is the one from
kunmap()).
Make it much harder to misuse, by moving it to level 9 on Rusty's list[4]
("The compiler/linker won't let you get it wrong"). This is done by
refusing to build if the type of its first argument is a pointer to a
struct page.
The real kunmap_atomic() is renamed to kunmap_atomic_notypecheck()
(which is what you would call in case for some strange reason calling it
with a pointer to a struct page is not incorrect in your code).
The previous version of this patch was compile tested on x86-64.
[1] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-04-01.html
[2] In these cases, it is at level 5, "Do it right or it will always
break at runtime."
[3] At least mips and powerpc look very similar, and sparc also seems to
share a common ancestor with both; there seems to be quite some
degree of copy-and-paste coding here. The include/asm/highmem.h file
for these three archs mention x86 CPUs at its top.
[4] http://ozlabs.org/~rusty/index.cgi/tech/2008-03-30.html
[5] As an aside, could someone tell me why mn10300 uses unsigned long as
the first parameter of kunmap_atomic() instead of void *?

Work around a silicon bug in the ac97 reset functionality of the
mpc5200(b). The implementation of the ac97 "cold" reset is flawed.
If the sync and output lines are high when reset is asserted the
attached ac97 device may go into test mode. Avoid this by
reconfiguring the psc to gpio mode and generating the reset manually.
From MPC5200B User's Manual:
"Some AC97 devices goes to a test mode, if the Sync line is high
during the Res line is low (reset phase). To avoid this behavior the
Sync line must be also forced to zero during the reset phase. To do
that, the pin muxing should switch to GPIO mode and the GPIO control
register should be used to control the output lines."

MPC5121 DIU configuration/setup as initialized by the boot
loader currently will get lost while booting Linux. As a
result displaying the boot splash is not possible through
the boot process.
To prevent this we reserve configured DIU frame buffer
address range while booting and preserve AOI descriptor
and gamma table so that DIU continues displaying through
the whole boot process. On first open from user space
DIU frame buffer driver releases the reserved frame
buffer area and continues to operate as usual.

and remove some wrong change like lmbench and dlmb etc.
also move memblock.c from lib/ to mm/

Use the MMU config registers to scan for available direct and
indirect page sizes and print out the result. Will be needed
for future hugetlbfs implementation.

We use a similar technique to ppc32: We set a thread local flag
to indicate that we are about to enter or have entered the stop
state, and have fixup code in the async interrupt entry code that
reacts to this flag to make us return to a different location
(sets NIP to LINK in our case).

This saves runtime memory and fixes lots of sparse warnings like this:
CHECK arch/powerpc/sysdev/micropatch.c
arch/powerpc/sysdev/micropatch.c:27:6: warning: symbol 'patch_2000'
was not declared. Should it be static?
arch/powerpc/sysdev/micropatch.c:146:6: warning: symbol 'patch_2f00'
was not declared. Should it be static?

spi_t was removed in commit 644b2a680ccc51a9ec4d6beb12e9d47d2dee98e2
("powerpc/cpm: Remove SPI defines and spi structs"), the commit assumed
that spi_t isn't used anywhere outside of the spi_mpc8xxx driver. But
it appears that the struct is needed for micropatch code. So, let's
reintroduce the struct.
Fixes the following build issue:
CC arch/powerpc/sysdev/micropatch.o
micropatch.c: In function 'cpm_load_patch':
micropatch.c:629: error: expected '=', ',', ';', 'asm' or '__attribute__' before '*' token
micropatch.c:629: error: 'spp' undeclared (first use in this function)
micropatch.c:629: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
micropatch.c:629: error: for each function it appears in.)

If we are soft disabled and receive a doorbell exception we don't process
it immediately. This means we need to check on the way out of irq restore
if there are any doorbell exceptions to process.
The problem is at that point we don't know what our regs are, and that
in turn makes xmon unhappy. To workaround the problem, instead of checking
for and processing doorbells, we check for any doorbells and if there were
any we send ourselves another.

The doorbells use the content of the PIR register to match messages
from other CPUs. This may or may not be the same as our linux CPU
number, so using that as the "target" is no right.
Instead, we sample the PIR register at boot on every processor
and use that value subsequently when sending IPIs.
We also use a per-cpu message mask rather than a global array which
should limit cache line contention.
Note: We could use the CPU number in the device-tree instead of
the PIR register, as they are supposed to be equivalent. This
might prove useful if doorbells are to be used to kick CPUs out
of FW at boot time, thus before we can sample the PIR. This is
however not the case now and using the PIR just works.

Our handling of debug interrupts on Book3E 64-bit is not quite
the way it should be just yet. This is a workaround to let gdb
work at least for now. We ensure that when context switching,
we set the appropriate DBCR0 value for the new task. We also
make sure that we turn off MSR[DE] within the kernel, and set
it as part of the bits that get set when going back to userspace.
In the long run, we will probably set the userspace DBCR0 on the
exception exit code path and ensure we have some proper kernel
value to set on the way into the kernel, a bit like ppc32 does,
but that will take more work.
