[MIPS] Fix scheduling latency issue on 24K, 34K and 74K cores
The idle loop goes to sleep using the WAIT instruction if !need_resched().
This has is suffering from from a race condition that if if just after
need_resched has returned 0 an interrupt might set TIF_NEED_RESCHED but
we've just completed the test so go to sleep anyway. This would be
trivial to fix by just disabling interrupts during that sequence as in:
local_irq_disable();
if (!need_resched())
__asm__("wait");
local_irq_enable();
but the processor architecture leaves it undefined if a processor calling
WAIT with interrupts disabled will ever restart its pipeline and indeed
some processors have made use of the freedom provided by the architecture
definition. This has been resolved and the Config7.WII bit indicates that
the use of WAIT is safe on 24K, 24KE and 34K cores. It also is safe on
74K starting revision 2.1.0 so enable the use of WAIT with interrupts
disabled for 74K based on a c0_prid of at least that.
Older processors used to encode processor version and revision in two
4-bit bitfields, the 4K seems to simply count up and even newer MTI cores
have switched to use the 8-bits as 3:3:2 bitfield with the last field as
the patch number.
The RM7000 processors and the E9000 cores have a bug (though PMC-Sierra
opposes it being called that) where invalid instructions in the same
I-cache line worth of instructions being fetched may case spurious
exceptions.
The workaround for this was only enabled for E9000 cores; enable it also
for all RM7000-based platforms.

dio: remove bogus refcounting BUG_ON
Badari Pulavarty reported a case of this BUG_ON is triggering during
testing. It's completely bogus and should be removed.
It's trying to notice if we left references to the dio hanging around in
the sync case. They should have been dropped as IO completed while this
path was in dio_await_completion(). This condition will also be
checked, via some twisty logic, by the BUG_ON(ret != -EIOCBQUEUED) a few
lines lower. So to start this BUG_ON() is redundant.
More fatally, it's dereferencing dio-> after having dropped its
reference. It's only safe to dereference the dio after releasing the
lock if the final reference was just dropped. Another CPU might free
the dio in bio completion and reuse the memory after this path drops the
dio lock but before the BUG_ON() is evaluated.
This patch passed aio+dio regression unit tests and aio-stress on ext3.

Revert HPET resource reservation
Matthias Lenk reports that the PCI subsystem would move the HPET on
SB400/SB600-based systems, where the HPET is in BAR1 of the SMbus
controller.
The reason? The ACPI layer registered the PCI MMIO range as being busy
too early, before PCI enumeration had happened, causing the PCI layer to
decide that it should relocate the resources somewhere else.
Firmware resources should be marked busy _after_ the PCI enumeration and
probing has happened, not before.
Remove the too-early reservation, we'll fix it up to do it properly
later. In the meantime, this solves the regression.

can't reliably stop the re-arming delayed_work.
Convert this code to use cancel_rearming_delayed_work() and move it

concurrent open/resume.

The cause was that vidioc_g_tuner didn't return an error value for

This patch adds the same index check as done in vidioc_g_tuner() in

V4L/DVB (5808): Bttv: fix v4l1 breaking the driver
If one uses a V4L *one* application, such as vlc or mplayer's v4l driver, as
the first user after the driver is loaded, the driver wedges itself and will
never capture properly. Even if one uses a V4L2 application later, it still
won't work.
If one uses a V4L *two* application first, such as tvtime or mplayer's v4l2
driver, then the driver will be ok. One can then run a V4L1 application, and
it will work.
It turns out the problem is with norm changing and the crop support that was
added in 2.6.21. The driver defaults to PAL, and keeps the last norm it was
set too across opens. If one changes the norm via V4L1, the cropping
parameters are not reset like they should be, and they'll remain broken across
device opens.
This patch removes the direct setting of btv->tvnorm in the V4L1 ioctl
VIDIOCSCHAN handler. The norm is set via the existing call to set_input(),
which calls set_tvnorm(), which will reset the cropping values now that it is
able to detect the norm change.
host->irq and host->irq2 should be set before ata_host_register() for
IRQ reporting to work. Move up host->irq assignment in
ata_host_activate() and add it to ata_pci_init_one() native path and
pata_cs5520.
The port info printing in ata_host_register() doesn't fit all the
different controllers. It should probably be moved out to LLDs with
some helpers in the future.

Commit 52ade9b3b97fd3bea42842a056fe0786c28d0555 changed the suspend code
ordering to execute pm_ops->prepare() after the device model per-device
.suspend() calls in order to fix some ACPI-related issues. Unfortunately, it
broke the at91 platform which assumed that pm_ops->prepare() would be called
before suspending devices.
at91 used pm_ops->prepare() to get notified of the target system sleep state,
so that it could use this information while suspending devices. However, with
the current suspend code ordering pm_ops->prepare() is called too late for
this purpose. Thus, at91 needs an additional method in 'struct pm_ops' that
will be used for notifying the platform of the target system sleep state.
Moreover, in the future such a method will also be needed by ACPI.
This patch adds the .set_target() method to 'struct pm_ops' and makes the
suspend code call it, if implemented, before executing the device model
per-device .suspend() calls. It also modifies the at91 code to use
pm_ops->set_target() instead of pm_ops->prepare().

cleanup by calling the module_exit routine from module_init, but it would
still return "success". So any attempt to rmmod this module would result in
asus_acpi_exit being called twice but it's not ready to handle it (I haven't
hit this bug, just found it by code inspection). This patch fixes that by
inserting a return -ENODEV; at the end of this error handling path.

Commit 9215da33209b861b01c51382254b178a3fe92a30 "fixed" the MTRR range
check to not allow any MTRR's under the 1MB mark (since that's where the
fixed MTRR's are active).
However, that was totally bogus, since it's normal (and almost required)
to have a large variable MTRR that starts at 0, and covers some large
percentage of the whole RAM, and then using the fixed MTRR's to override
that large MTRR to handle the special ISA hole in the 640k-1M region.
The old check was bogus too (checking that no variable MTRR is used that
is entirely under the 1MB range), but at least it wasn't actively
detrimental, because no sane situation would ever trigger such MTRR
usage in the first place.
That said, the whole notion of not allowing variable MTRR's in the low
1MB is just stupid, so rather than revert the commit, this just removes
the whole sad and unnecessary check entirely.

Fix VDSO gettimeofday() when called with NULL struct timeval.
The vdso64 portion of patch 74609f4536f2b8fd6a48381bbbe3cd37da20a527 for
fixing problems with NULL gettimeofday input mistakenly checks for a
null tz field twice, when it should be checking for null tz once, and
null tv once; by way of a r10/r11 typo.
Any application calling gettimeofday(&tv,NULL) will "fail".
This corrects that typo, and makes my G5 happy.

firewire: add Kconfig help on building both stacks
Alas that won't work so good, because nobody reads help texts.
I thought about adding some crude multiple choice selection (build the

it would introduce awkward dummy config variables.

[NETPOLL] netconsole: fix soft lockup when removing module
#1
Until kernel ver. 2.6.21 (including) cancel_rearming_delayed_work()
required a work function should always (unconditionally) rearm with
delay > 0 - otherwise it would endlessly loop. This patch replaces
this function with cancel_delayed_work(). Later kernel versions don't
require this, so here it's only for uniformity.
#2
After deleting a timer in cancel_[rearming_]delayed_work() there could
stay a last skb queued in npinfo->txq causing a memory leak after
kfree(npinfo).

Introduce fixed sys_sync_file_range2() syscall, implement on PowerPC and ARM
Not all the world is an i386. Many architectures need 64-bit arguments to be
aligned in suitable pairs of registers, and the original
sys_sync_file_range(int, loff_t, loff_t, int) was therefore wasting an
argument register for padding after the first integer. Since we don't
normally have more than 6 arguments for system calls, that left no room for
the final argument on some architectures.
Fix this by introducing sys_sync_file_range2(int, int, loff_t, loff_t) which
all fits nicely. In fact, ARM already had that, but called it
sys_arm_sync_file_range. Move it to fs/sync.c and rename it, then implement
the needed compatibility routine. And stop the missing syscall check from
bitching about the absence of sys_sync_file_range() if we've implemented
sys_sync_file_range2() instead.
Tested on PPC32 and with 32-bit and 64-bit userspace on PPC64.

serial: clear proper MPSC interrupt cause bits
The interrupt clearing code in mpsc_sdma_intr_ack() mistakenly clears the
interrupt for both controllers instead of just the one its supposed to.
This can result in the other controller appearing to hang because its
interrupt was effectively lost.
So, don't clear the interrupt cause bits for both MPSC controllers when
clearing the interrupt for one of them. Just clear the one that is
supposed to be cleared.
