f708631ac7 [MIPS] Alchemy: Fix USB initialization.
This patch fixes a wrong ifdef in the board setup code, leading to the GPIO
pin not being pulled high, and thus the USB switch not being powered at all.

This finishes the rename of CONFIG_USB_OHCI to CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD, which
started in 2005 (before 2.6.12-rc2), then probably because things were
working anyway for most people got forgotten.

[Ralf: Paolo's original patch didn't fix the module case, Florian's patch
only fixed MTX1 etc. so this is a combined patch plus some cleanups.]

52a2638bff Longhaul: add auto enabled "revid_errata" option
VIA C3 Ezra-T has RevisionID equal to 1, but it needs RevisionKey to be 0
or CPU will ignore new frequency and will continue to work at old
frequency.  New "revid_errata" option will force RevisionKey to be set to
0, whatever RevisionID is.

Additionaly "Longhaul" will not silently ignore unsuccessful transition.
It will try to check if "revid_errata" or "disable_acpi_c3" options need to
be enabled for this processor/system.

Same for Longhaul ver.  2 support.  It will be disabled if none of above
options will work.

 Best case scenario (with patch apllied and v2 enabled):
 longhaul: VIA C3 'Ezra' [C5C] CPU detected.  Longhaul v2 supported.
 longhaul: Using northbridge support.
 longhaul: VRM 8.5
 longhaul: Max VID=1.350  Min VID=1.050, 13 possible voltage scales
 longhaul: f: 300000 kHz, index: 0, vid: 1050 mV
 [...]
 longhaul: Voltage scaling enabled.
 Worst case scenario:
 longhaul: VIA C3 'Ezra-T' [C5M] CPU detected.  Powersaver supported.
 longhaul: Using northbridge support.
 longhaul: Using ACPI support.
 longhaul: VRM 8.5
 longhaul: Claims to support voltage scaling but min & max are both 1.250. Voltage scaling disabled
 longhaul: Failed to set requested frequency!
 longhaul: Enabling "Ignore Revision ID" option.
 longhaul: Failed to set requested frequency!
 longhaul: Disabling ACPI C3 support.
 longhaul: Disabling "Ignore Revision ID" option.
 longhaul: Failed to set requested frequency!
 longhaul: Enabling "Ignore Revision ID" option.

27097ef9ff [SPARC64]: Temporary workaround for PCI-E slot on T1000.
The PCI-E slot on T1000 connects directly to the Fire PCI chip with no
intervening bridges visible in the OBP tree.

Unfortunately the bus numbering of the device in that slot is
different (2) from the PCI host controller (0), and thus the
pci_bus_{read,write}_config_*() calls don't work out.

Complicating things further the Fire PCI controller has no config
space it responds to either.

For now treat this case specially so that devices in the slot work.

Longer term we need to perhaps cons up a dummy bridge between the Fire
and the PCI-E slot so that the bus hierarchy is complete inside of the
kernel and thus the bus numbering all works out right.

It doesn't matter for use in 64-bit objects, but when used in
32-bit environments the top 32-bits of the local and in
registers will get chopped off on the next register window
spill/restore which leads to difficult to track down and
subtle bugs.

25e5566ed3 [SPARC64]: Fix missing load-twin usage in Niagara-1 memcpy.
For the case where the source is not aligned modulo 8
we don't use load-twins to suck the data in and this
kills performance since normal loads allocate in the
L1 cache (unlike load-twin) and thus big memcpys swipe
the entire L1 D-cache.

We need to allocate a register window to implement this
properly, but that actually simplifies a lot of things
as a nice side-effect.

cf8dc57cba x86_64: increase VDSO_TEXT_OFFSET for ancient binutils
For some reason old binutils genertate larger headers so increase the text
offset of the vdso to avoid linker errors.

Roland McGrath explains:
  "There are extra symbols in the '.dynsym' section that are responsible
   for the size difference (They also cause corresponding inflation in
   '.gnu.version')

   Older ld's wrongly generated these unneeded symbols in .dynsym.  This
   was fixed not all that long ago (2006); binutils-2.17.50.0.6 might be
   the first fixed version, but I have not verified for sure where the
   cutoff was.

   The unneeded symbols et al from old ld add almost 700 bytes excess.
   This limits fairly tightly the amount by which the actual text and
   data in the vDSO can grow in the future without pushing the whole
   file over 4kb.  If it does grow later on, we should consider changing
   the layout with a config option or something to pack it better
   without that padding, when building the kernel with newer binutils."

e48395f175 [POWERPC] Fix xics set_affinity code
On a POWER6 machine running 2.6.23-rc8 I sometimes see the following error:

xics_set_affinity: No online cpus in the mask 00000000,00000000,00000000,00000001 for irq 20

In a desperate attempt to get a changelog entry in 2.6.23, I took a look
into it.

It turns out we are passing a real and not a virtual irq into
get_irq_server.  This works for the case where hwirq < NR_IRQS and we
set virq = hwirq.  In my case however hwirq = 590082 and we try and
access irq_desc[590082], slightly past the end at 512 entries.

Lucky we ship lots of memory with our machines.

f7f847b015 Revert "x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E"
This reverts commit e66485d747, since
Rafael Wysocki noticed that the change only works for his in -mm, not in
mainline (and that both "noapictimer" _and_ "apicmaintimer" are broken
on his hardware, but that's apparently not a regression, just a symptom
of the same issue that causes the automatic apic timer disable to not
work).

It turns out that it really doesn't work correctly on x86-64, since
x86-64 doesn't use the generic clock events for timers yet.

Thanks to Rafal for testing, and here's the ugly details on x86-64 as
per Thomas:

  "I just looked into the code and the logic vs.  noapictimer on SMP is
   completely broken.

   On i386 the noapictimer option not only disables the local APIC
   timer, it also registers the CPUs for broadcasting via IPI on SMP
   systems.

   The x86-64 code uses the broadcast only when the local apic timer is
   active, i.e.  "noapictimer" is not on the command line.  This defeats
   the whole purpose of "noapictimer".  It should be there to make boxen
   work, where the local APIC timer actually has a hardware problem,
   e.g.  the nx6325.

   The current implementation of x86_64 only fixes the ACPI c-states
   related problem where the APIC timer stops in C3(2), nothing else.

   On nx6325 and other AMD X2 equipped systems which have the C1E
   enabled we run into the following:

   PIT keeps jiffies (and the system) running, but the local APIC timer
   interrupts can get out of sync due to this C1E effect.

   I don't think this is a critical problem, but it is wrong
   nevertheless.

   I think it's safe to revert the C1E patch and postpone the fix to the
   clock events conversion."

On further reflection, Thomas noted:

   "It's even worse than I thought on the first check:

    "noapictimer" on the command line of an SMP box prevents _ONLY_ the
    boot CPU apic timer from being used.  But the secondary CPU is still
    unconditionally setting up the APIC timer and uses the non
    calibrated variable calibration_result, which is of course 0, to
    setup the APIC timer.  Wreckage guaranteed."

so we'll just have to wait for the x86 merge to hopefully fix this up
for x86-64.

2efa33f81e [x86 setup] Handle case of improperly terminated E820 chain
At least one system (a Geode system with a Digital Logic BIOS) has
been found which suddenly stops reporting the SMAP signature when
reading the E820 memory chain.  We can't know what, exactly, broke in
the BIOS, so if we detect this situation, declare the E820 data
unusable and fall back to E801.

Also, revert to original behavior of always probing all memory
methods; that way all the memory information is available to the
kernel.

df912ea4ae xen: execve's error paths don't pin the mm before unpinning
execve's error paths don't activate (and therefore pin) the mm before
calling exit_mmap to free it up, so don't try to unpin unless it is
actually pinned.  This prevents a BUG_ON from triggering.

e66485d747 x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E
commit 3556ddfa92 titled

 [PATCH] x86-64: Disable local APIC timer use on AMD systems with C1E

solves a problem with AMD dual core laptops e.g. HP nx6325 (Turion 64
X2) with C1E enabled:

When both cores go into idle at the same time, then the system switches
into C1E state, which is basically the same as C3. This stops the local
apic timer.

This was debugged right after the dyntick merge on i386 and despite the
patch title it fixes only the 32 bit path.

x86_64 is still missing this fix. It seems that mainline is not really
affected by this issue, as the PIT is running and keeps jiffies
incrementing, but that's just waiting for trouble.

-mm suffers from this problem due to the x86_64 high resolution timer
patches.

This is a quick and dirty port of the i386 code to x86_64.

I spent quite a time with Rafael to debug the -mm / hrt wreckage until
someone pointed us to this. I really had forgotten that we debugged this
half a year ago already.

Sigh, is it just me or is there something yelling arch/x86 into my ear?

603c461250 [POWERPC] spufs: fix mismerge, making context signal{1,2} files readable again
The commit 8b6f50ef1d seems to have
been affected by a mismerge of a duplicate patch
(d054b36ffd) - both the
spufs_dir_contents and spufs_dir_nosched_contents have been given
write-only signal notification files.

This change reverts the spufs_dir_contents array to use the
readable signal notification file implementation.

474f819672 [POWERPC] Ensure FULL_REGS on exec
When PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC is used, a ptrace call to fetch the registers at
the PTRACE_EVENT_EXEC stop (PTRACE_PEEKUSR) will oops in CHECK_FULL_REGS.
With recent versions, "gdb --args /bin/sh -c 'exec /bin/true'" and "run" at
the (gdb) prompt is sufficient to produce this.  I also have written an
isolated test case, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=301791#c15.

This change fixes the problem by clearing the low bit of pt_regs.trap in
start_thread so that FULL_REGS is true again.  This is correct since all of
the GPRs that "full" refers to are cleared in start_thread.

0b95f22bd3 Blackfin arch: add some missing syscall
When compiling the Blackfin kernel, checksyscalls.pl will report lots of missing syscalls warnings.
This patch will add some missing syscalls which make sense on Blackfin arch

After appling this patch, toolchain should be rebuilt. Then recompiling the kernel with the new
toolchain.
