nfsd: fix spurious EACCESS in reconnect_path()
Thanks to Frank Van Maarseveen for the original problem report: "A
privileged process on an NFS client which drops privileges after using
them to change the current working directory, will experience incorrect
EACCES after an NFS server reboot. This problem can also occur after
memory pressure on the server, particularly when the client side is
quiet for some time."
This occurs because the filehandle points to a directory whose parents
are no longer in the dentry cache, and we're attempting to reconnect the
directory to its parents without adequate permissions to perform lookups
in the parent directories.
We can therefore fix the problem by acquiring the necessary capabilities
before attempting the reconnection. We do this only in the
no_subtree_check case, since the documented behavior of the
subtree_check export option requires the server to check that the user
has lookup permissions on all parents.
The subtree_check case still has a problem, since reconnect_path()
unnecessarily requires both read and lookup permissions on all parent
directories. However, a fix in that case would be more delicate, and
use of subtree_check is already discouraged for other reasons.

knfsd: nfsd: Handle ERESTARTSYS from syscalls.
OCFS2 can return -ERESTARTSYS from write requests (and possibly
elsewhere) if there is a signal pending.
If nfsd is shutdown (by sending a signal to each thread) while there
is still an IO load from the client, each thread could handle one last
request with a signal pending. This can result in -ERESTARTSYS
which is not understood by nfserrno() and so is reflected back to
the client as nfserr_io aka -EIO. This is wrong.
Instead, interpret ERESTARTSYS to mean "try again later" by returning
nfserr_jukebox. The client will resend and - if the server is
restarted - the write will (hopefully) be successful and everyone will
be happy.
The symptom that I narrowed down to this was:
copy a large file via NFS to an OCFS2 filesystem, and restart
the nfs server during the copy.
The 'cp' might get an -EIO, and the file will be corrupted -
presumably holes in the middle where writes appeared to fail.

Whereas most Orion 5x machine support code would initialise the PCI

This was presumably done because on those two machines, the PCI(-X)
controller (nr == 1) isn't used, requiring initialisation of only
the PCIe controller (nr == 0.) However, not initialising the PCI(-X)
controller on boards that don't use it leads to a situation where
both the PCIe and the PCI(-X) controller think that their root bus is
zero, and it messes up IRQ assignment.

x86: disable mwait for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs
x86: fix crash on cpu hotplug on pat-incapable machines
x86: remove mwait capability C-state check
It depends on the CPU. For AMD CPUs that support MWAIT this is wrong.
Family 0x10 and 0x11 CPUs will enter C1 on HLT. Powersavings then
depend on a clock divisor and current Pstate of the core.
If all cores of a processor are in halt state (C1) the processor can
enter the C1E (C1 enhanced) state. If mwait is used this will never
happen.
Thus HLT saves more power than MWAIT here.
It might be best to switch off the mwait flag for these AMD CPU
families like it was introduced with commit f039b754714a422959027cb18bb33760eb8153f0 (x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD

because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried
to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default
execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very
