9eb07a7fb8 edac: edac_mc_handle_error(): add an error_count parameter
In order to avoid loosing error events, it is desirable to group
error events together and generate a single trace for several identical
errors.

The trace API already allows reporting multiple errors. Change the
handle_error function to also allow that.

The changes at the drivers were made by this small script:

	$file .=$_ while (<>);
	$file =~ s/(edac_mc_handle_error)\s*\(([^\,]+)\,([^\,]+)\,/$1($2,$3, 1,/g;
	print $file;

03f7eae80f edac: remove arch-specific parameter for the error handler
Remove the arch-dependent parameter, as it were not used,
as the MCE tracepoint weren't implemented. It probably doesn't
make sense to have an MCE-specific tracepoint, as this will
cost more bytes at the tracepoint, and tracepoint is not free.

The changes at the EDAC drivers were done by this small perl script:

	$file .=$_ while (<>);
	$file =~ s/(edac_mc_handle_error)\s*\(([^\;]+)\,([^\,\)]+)\s*\)/$1($2)/g;
	print $file;

fd687502dc edac: Rename the parent dev to pdev
As EDAC doesn't use struct device itself, it created a parent dev
pointer called as "pdev".  Now that we'll be converting it to use
struct device, instead of struct devsys, this needs to be fixed.

No functional changes.

a895bf8b1e edac: move nr_pages to dimm struct
The number of pages is a dimm property. Move it to the dimm struct.

After this change, it is possible to add sysfs nodes for the DIMM's that
will properly represent the DIMM stick properties, including its size.

A TODO fix here is to properly represent dual-rank/quad-rank DIMMs when
the memory controller represents the memory via chip select rows.

5e2af0c09e edac: Don't initialize csrow's first_page & friends when not needed
Almost all edac	drivers	initialize csrow_info->first_page,
csrow_info->last_page and csrow_info->page_mask. Those vars are
used inside the EDAC core, in order to calculate the csrow affected
by an error, by using the routine edac_mc_find_csrow_by_page().

However, very few drivers actually use it:
        e752x_edac.c
        e7xxx_edac.c
        i3000_edac.c
        i82443bxgx_edac.c
        i82860_edac.c
        i82875p_edac.c
        i82975x_edac.c
        r82600_edac.c

There also a few other drivers that have their own calculus
formula internally using those vars.

All the others are just wasting time by initializing those
data.

While initializing data without using them won't cause any troubles, as
those information is stored at the wrong place (at csrows structure), it
is better to remove what is unused, in order to simplify the next patch.

084a4fccef edac: move dimm properties to struct dimm_info
On systems based on chip select rows, all channels need to use memories
with the same properties, otherwise the memories on channels A and B
won't be recognized.

However, such assumption is not true for all types of memory
controllers.

Controllers for FB-DIMM's don't have such requirements.

Also, modern Intel controllers seem to be capable of handling such
differences.

So, we need to get rid of storing the DIMM information into a per-csrow
data, storing it, instead at the right place.

The first step is to move grain, mtype, dtype and edac_mode to the
per-dimm struct.

a7d7d2e1a0 edac: Create a dimm struct and move the labels into it
The way a DIMM is currently represented implies that they're
linked into a per-csrow struct. However, some drivers don't see
csrows, as they're ridden behind some chip like the AMB's
on FBDIMM's, for example.

This forced drivers to fake^Wvirtualize a csrow struct, and to create
a mess under csrow/channel original's concept.

Move the DIMM labels into a per-DIMM struct, and add there
the real location of the socket, in terms of csrow/channel.
Latter patches will modify the location to properly represent the
memory architecture.

All other drivers will use a per-csrow type of location.
Some of those drivers will require a latter conversion, as
they also fake the csrows internally.

TODO: While this patch doesn't change the existing behavior, on
csrows-based memory controllers, a csrow/channel pair points to a memory
rank. There's a known bug at the EDAC core that allows having different
labels for the same DIMM, if it has more than one rank. A latter patch
is need to merge the several ranks for a DIMM into the same dimm_info
struct, in order to avoid having different labels for the same DIMM.

The edac_mc_alloc() will now contain a per-dimm initialization loop that
will be changed by latter patches in order to match other types of
memory architectures.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

295439f2a3 edac: i5100 add scrubbing
Addscrubbing to the i5100 chipset.  The i5100 chipset only supports one
scrubbing rate, which is not constant but dependent on memory load.  The
rate returned by this driver is an estimate based on some experimentation,
but is substantially closer to the truth than the speed supplied in the
documentation.

Also, scrubbing is done once, and then a done-bit is set.  This means that
to accomplish continuous scrubbing a re-enabling mechanism must be used.
I have created the simplest possible such mechanism in the form of a
work-queue which will check every five minutes.  This interval is quite
arbitrary but should be sufficient for all sizes of system memory.

Some code cleanliness issues found by Andrew Morton (thanks!) which should

In particular, we now:

* convert all #define's w/ a parameter to static inlines
* use 1UL rather than 1ULL when calculating an unsigned long
* use pci_disable_device

The resulting code is tested and seems to work fine...

1) This chip has 2 independent memory controllers which, for best
   perforance, use interleaved accesses to the DDR2 memory.  This
   architecture does not map very well to the current edac data structures
   which depend on symmetric channel access to the interleaved data.
   Without core changes, the best I could do for now is to map both memory
   controllers to different csrows (first all ranks of controller 0, then
   all ranks of controller 1).  Someone much more familiar with the edac
   core than I will probably need to come up with a more general data
   structure to handle the interleaving and de-interleaving of the two
   memory controllers.

2) I have not yet tackled the de-interleaving of the rank/controller
   address space into the physical address space of the CPU.  There is
   nothing fundamentally missing, it is just ending up to be a lot of
   code, and I'd rather keep it separate for now, esp since it doesn't
   work yet...

3) The code depends on a particular i5100 chip select to DIMM mainboard
   chip select mapping.  This mapping seems obvious to me in order to
   support dual and single ranked memory, but it is not unique and DIMM
   labels could be wrong on other mainboards.  There is no way to query
   this mapping that I know of.

4) The code requires that the i5100 is in 32GB mode.  Only 4 ranks per
   controller, 2 ranks per DIMM are supported.  I do not have hardware
   (nor do I expect to have hardware anytime soon) for the 48GB (6 ranks
   per controller) mode.

5) The serial presence detect code should be broken out into a "real"
   i2c driver so that decode-dimms.pl can work.
