The current implementation of the v7_coherent_*_range function assumes
that the D and I cache lines have the same size, which is incorrect
architecturally. This patch adds the icache_line_size macro which reads
the CTR register. The main loop in v7_coherent_*_range is split in two
independent loops or the D and I caches. This also has the performance
advantage that the DSB is moved outside the main loop.

The current implementation of the dcache_line_size macro reads the L1
cache size from the CCSIDR register. This, however, is not guaranteed to
be the smallest cache line in the cache hierarchy. The patch changes to
the macro to use the more architecturally correct CTR register.

nohz: Fix printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus
printk: Fix wake_up_klogd() vs cpu hotplug
Currently the {set,get}_pull callbacks of the s3c24xx_gpiocfg_default structure
are initalized via s3c_gpio_{get,set}pull_1up. This results in a linker
error when only CONFIG_CPU_S3C2442 is selected:
arch/arm/plat-s3c24xx/built-in.o:(.data+0x13f4): undefined reference to
`s3c_gpio_getpull_1up'
arch/arm/plat-s3c24xx/built-in.o:(.data+0x13f8): undefined reference to
`s3c_gpio_setpull_1up'
The s3c2442 has pulldowns instead of pullups compared to the s3c2440.
The method of controlling them is the same though.
So this patch modifies the existing s3c_gpio_{get,set}pull_1up helper functions
to take an additional parameter deciding whether the pin has a pullup or pulldown.
The s3c_gpio_{get,set}pull_1{down,up} functions then wrap that functions passing
either S3C_GPIO_PULL_UP or S3C_GPIO_PULL_DOWN.
Furthermore this patch sets up the s3c24xx_gpiocfg_default.{get,set}_pull fields
in the s3c244{0,2}_map_io function to the new pulldown helper functions.

The essential problem we're currently having is that dino (and gsc) is a
cascaded CPU interrupt. Under the old __do_IRQ() handler, our CPU
interrupts basically did an ack followed by an end. In the new scheme,
we replaced them with level handlers which do a mask, an ack and then an
unmask (but no end). Instead, with the renaming of end to eoi, we
actually want to call the percpu flow handlers, because they actually
have all the characteristics we want.
This patch does the conversion and gets my C360 booting again.

On stock 2.6.37-rc4, running:
# mount lilith:/export /mnt/lilith
# find /mnt/lilith/ -type f -print0 | xargs -0 file
crashes the machine fairly quickly under Xen. Often it results in oops
messages, but the couple of times I tried just now, it just hung quietly
and made Xen print some rude messages:
(XEN) mm.c:2389:d80 Bad type (saw 7400000000000001 != exp
3000000000000000) for mfn 1d7058 (pfn 18fa7)

(XEN) mm.c:2965:d80 Error while pinning mfn 1d2e04
Which means the domain tried to map a pagetable page RW, which would
allow it to map arbitrary memory, so Xen stopped it. This is because
vm_unmap_ram() left some pages mapped in the vmalloc area after NFS had
finished with them, and those pages got recycled as pagetable pages
while still having these RW aliases.
Removing those mappings immediately removes the Xen-visible aliases, and
so it has no problem with those pages being reused as pagetable pages.
Deferring the TLB flush doesn't upset Xen because it can flush the TLB
itself as needed to maintain its invariants.
When unmapping a region in the vmalloc space, clear the ptes
immediately. There's no point in deferring this because there's no
amortization benefit.
The TLBs are left dirty, and they are flushed lazily to amortize the
cost of the IPIs.
This specific motivation for this patch is an oops-causing regression
since 2.6.36 when using NFS under Xen, triggered by the NFS client's use
of vm_map_ram() introduced in 56e4ebf877 ("NFS: readdir with vmapped
pages") . XFS also uses vm_map_ram() and could cause similar problems.

When remapping MSIs into pirqs for PV on HVM guests, qemu is responsible
for doing the actual mapping and unmapping.
We only give qemu the desired pirq number when we ask to do the mapping
the first time, after that we should be reading back the pirq number
from qemu every time we want to re-enable the MSI.
This fixes a bug in xen_hvm_setup_msi_irqs that manifests itself when
trying to enable the same MSI for the second time: the old MSI to pirq
mapping is still valid at this point but xen_hvm_setup_msi_irqs would
try to assign a new pirq anyway.
A simple way to reproduce this bug is to assign an MSI capable network
card to a PV on HVM guest, if the user brings down the corresponding
ethernet interface and up again, Linux would fail to enable MSIs on the
device.

This fixes the same problem as described in the patch "nohz: fix
printk_needs_cpu() return value on offline cpus" for the arch_needs_cpu()
primitive:
arch_needs_cpu() may return 1 if called on offline cpus. When a cpu gets
offlined it schedules the idle process which, before killing its own cpu,
will call tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick().
That function in turn will call arch_needs_cpu() in order to check if the
local tick can be disabled. On offline cpus this function should naturally
return 0 since regardless if the tick gets disabled or not the cpu will be
dead short after. That is besides the fact that __cpu_disable() should already
have made sure that no interrupts on the offlined cpu will be delivered anyway.
In this case it prevents tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() to call
select_nohz_load_balancer(). No idea if that really is a problem. However what
made me debug this is that on 2.6.32 the function get_nohz_load_balancer() is
used within __mod_timer() to select a cpu on which a timer gets enqueued.
If arch_needs_cpu() returns 1 then the nohz_load_balancer cpu doesn't get
updated when a cpu gets offlined. It may contain the cpu number of an offline
cpu. In turn timers get enqueued on an offline cpu and not very surprisingly
they never expire and cause system hangs.
This has been observed 2.6.32 kernels. On current kernels __mod_timer() uses
get_nohz_timer_target() which doesn't have that problem. However there might
be other problems because of the too early exit tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()
in case a cpu goes offline.
This specific bug was indrocuded with 3c5d92a0 "nohz: Introduce
arch_needs_cpu".
In this case a cpu hotplug notifier is used to fix the issue in order to keep
the normal/fast path small. All we need to do is to clear the condition that
makes arch_needs_cpu() return 1 since it is just a performance improvement
which is supposed to keep the local tick running for a short period if a cpu
goes idle. Nothing special needs to be done except for clearing the condition.

This follows the ARM change c01778001a
("ARM: 6379/1: Assume new page cache pages have dirty D-cache") for the
same rationale:
There are places in Linux where writes to newly allocated page
cache pages happen without a subsequent call to flush_dcache_page()
(several PIO drivers including USB HCD). This patch changes the
meaning of PG_arch_1 to be PG_dcache_clean and always flush the
D-cache for a newly mapped page in update_mmu_cache().
This addresses issues seen with executing binaries from MMC, in
addition to some of the other HCDs that don't explicitly do cache
management for their pipe-in buffers.

The code which makes up the zImage header intends to leave a
32-byte gap followed by a branch to the real entry point, a magic
number, and a word containing the absolute entry point address.
This gets messed up with with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL, because the
size of the initial padding NOPs changes.
Instead, the header can be made fully compatible by restoring it to
ARM.
In the Thumb-2 case, we can replace the initial NOPs with a
sequence which switches to Thumb and jumps to the real entry point.
As a consequence, the zImage entry point is now always ARM, so no
special magic is needed any more for the uImage rules in the
