Fix conflicts in drivers/char/pty.c due to earlier version of the ldisc
race narrowing.
The WARN_ON() that was added to tty_reopen can be triggered in the specific
case of a hangup occurring during a re-open of a tty which is not in the
middle of being otherwise closed.
In that case however the WARN() is bogus as we don't hold the neccessary
locks to make a correct decision.
The case we should be checking is "if the ldisc is not changing and reopen
is occuring". We could drop the WARN_ON but for the moment the debug is more
valuable even if it means taking a mutex as it will find any other cases.

The patch adds supporting for suspending and resuming IUCV HVC terminal
devices from disk. The obligatory Linux device driver interfaces has
been added by registering a device driver on the IUCV bus.
For each IUCV HVC terminal device the driver creates a respective device
on the IUCV bus.
To support suspend and resume, the PM freeze callback severs any established
IUCV communication path and triggers a HVC tty hang-up when the system image
is restored.
IUCV communication path are no longer valid when the z/VM guest is halted.
The device driver initialization has been updated to register devices and
the a new routine has been extracted to facilitate the hang-up of IUCV HVC
terminal devices.

There are several pretty much unfixable races in the old ldisc code, especially
with respect to pty behaviour and also to hangup. It's easier to rewrite the
code than simply try and patch it up.
This patch
- splits the ldisc from the tty (so we will be able to refcount it more cleanly
later)
- introduces a mutex lock for ldisc changing on an active device
- fixes the complete mess that hangup caused
- implements hopefully correct setldisc/close/hangup locking
There are still some problems around pty pairs that have always been there but
at least it is now possible to understand the code and fix further problems.
This fixes the following known bugs
- hang up can leak ldisc references
- hang up may not call open/close on ldisc in a matched way
- pty/tty pairs can deadlock during an ldisc change
- reading the ldisc proc files can cause every ldisc to be loaded
and probably a few other of the mysterious ldisc race reports.
I'm sure it also adds the odd new one.

The tty throttling code can race due to the lock drops. It takes very high
loads but this has been observed and verified by Rob Duncan.
The basic problem is that on an SMP box we can go
CPU #1 CPU #2
need to throttle ?
suppose we should buffer space cleared
are we throttled
yes ? - unthrottle
call throttle method
This changeet take the termios lock to protect against this. The termios
lock isn't the initial obvious candidate but many implementations of throttle
methods already need to poke around their own termios structures (and nobody
really locks them against a racing change of flow control).
This does mean that anyone who is setting tty->low_latency = 1 and then
calling tty_flip_buffer_push from their unthrottle method is going to end up
collapsing in a pile of locks. However we've removed all the known bogus
users of low_latency = 1 and such use isn't safe anyway for other reasons so
catching it would be an improvement.

level of 128 bytes used in DMA mode creates excessive latency
when operating at low data rates. PIO mode is selected when user
application requests data in blocks of less than 128 bytes.

Some drivers implement this internally, others miss it out. Push the
behaviour into the core code as that way everyone will do it consistently.
Update the dtr rts method to raise or lower depending upon flags. Having a
single method in this style fits most of the implementations more cleanly than
two funtions.
We need this in place before we tackle the USB side

This helps with bad latencies for large reads from /dev/zero, but might
conceivably break some application that "knows" that a read of /dev/zero
cannot return early. So do this early in the merge window to give us
maximal test coverage, even if the patch is totally trivial.
Obviously, no well-behaved application should ever depend on the read
being uninterruptible, but hey, bugs happen.

There's a bug in the mxser kernel module that still appears in the
2.6.29.4 kernel.
mxser_get_ISA_conf takes a ioaddress as its first argument, by passing the
not of the ioaddr, you're effectively passing 0 which means it won't be
able to talk to an ISA card. I have tested this, and removing the !
fixes the problem.

While running 20 parallel instances of dd as follows:
#!/bin/bash
for i in `seq 1 20`; do
dd if=/dev/zero of=/export/hda3/dd_$i bs=1073741824 count=1 &
done
wait
on a 16G machine, we noticed that rather than just killing the processes,
the entire kernel went down. Stracing dd reveals that it first does an
mmap2, which makes 1GB worth of zero page mappings. Then it performs a
read on those pages from /dev/zero, and finally it performs a write.
The machine died during the reads. Looking at the code, it was noticed
that /dev/zero's read operation had been changed by
557ed1fa26 ("remove ZERO_PAGE") from giving
zero page mappings to actually zeroing the page.
The zeroing of the pages causes physical pages to be allocated to the
process. But, when the process exhausts all the memory that it can, the
kernel cannot kill it, as it is still in the kernel mode allocating more
memory. Consequently, the kernel eventually crashes.
To fix this, I propose that when a fatal signal is pending during
/dev/zero read operation, we simply return and let the user process die.

A pointer to omap_rng_probe is passed to the core via
platform_driver_register and so the function must not disappear when the
.init sections are discarded. Otherwise (if also having HOTPLUG=y)
unbinding and binding a device to the driver via sysfs will result in an
oops as does a device being registered late.
An alternative to this patch is using platform_driver_probe instead of
platform_driver_register plus removing the pointer to the probe function
from the struct platform_driver.

Until now we have had a 1:1 mapping between storage device physical
block size and the logical block sized used when addressing the device.
With SATA 4KB drives coming out that will no longer be the case. The
sector size will be 4KB but the logical block size will remain
512-bytes. Hence we need to distinguish between the physical block size
and the logical ditto.
This patch renames hardsect_size to logical_block_size.

Instead of queuing IPMB messages before channel initialization, just
throw them away. Nobody will be listening for them at this point,
anyway, and they will clog up the queue and nothing will be delivered
if we queue them.
Also set the current channel to the number of channels, as this value
is used to tell if the channel information has been initialized.

get_event_name uses sprintf to fill a buffer declared on the stack. It fills
the buffer 2 bytes at a time. What the code doesn't take into account is that
sprintf(buf, "%02x", data) actually writes 3 bytes. 2 bytes for the data and
then it nul terminates the string. Since we declare buf to be 40 characters
long and then we write 40 bytes of data into buf sprintf is going to write 41
characters. The fix is to leave room in buf for the nul terminator.

Martin Knoblauch reports that trying to build 2.6.30-rc6-git3 with
RHEL4.3 userspace (gcc (GCC) 3.4.5 20051201 (Red Hat 3.4.5-2)) causes an
internal compiler error (ICE):

and after some debugging it turns out that it's due to the code trying
to figure out the rough value of the current stack pointer by taking an
address of an uninitialized variable and casting that to an integer.
This is clearly a compiler bug, but it's not worth fighting - while the
current stack kernel pointer might be somewhat hard to predict in user
space, it's also not generally going to change for a lot of the call
chains for a particular process.
So just drop it, and mumble some incoherent curses at the compiler.

Commit 79e539453b introduced a
regression where you cannot use sysrq 'g' to enter kgdb. The solution
is to move the intel fb sysrq over to V for video instead of G for
graphics. The SMP VOYAGER code to register for the sysrq-v is not
anywhere to be found in the mainline kernel, so the comments in the
code were cleaned up as well.
This patch also cleans up the sysrq definitions for kgdb to make it
generic for the kernel debugger, such that the sysrq 'g' can be used
in the future to enter a gdbstub or another kernel debugger.

It's a really simple patch that basically just open-codes the current
"secure_ip_id()" call, but when open-coding it we now use a _static_
hashing area, so that it gets updated every time.
And to make sure somebody can't just start from the same original seed of
all-zeroes, and then do the "half_md4_transform()" over and over until
they get the same sequence as the kernel has, each iteration also mixes in
the same old "current->pid + jiffies" we used - so we should now have a
regular strong pseudo-number generator, but we also have one that doesn't
have a single seed.
Note: the "pid + jiffies" is just meant to be a tiny tiny bit of noise. It
has no real meaning. It could be anything. I just picked the previous
seed, it's just that now we keep the state in between calls and that will
feed into the next result, and that should make all the difference.
I made that hash be a per-cpu data just to avoid cache-line ping-pong:
having multiple CPU's write to the same data would be fine for randomness,
and add yet another layer of chaos to it, but since get_random_int() is
supposed to be a fast interface I did it that way instead. I considered
using "__raw_get_cpu_var()" to avoid any preemption overhead while still
getting the hash be _mostly_ ping-pong free, but in the end good taste won
out.
