jbd2: don't give up looking for space so easily in __jbd2_log_wait_for_space
Commit 23f8b79e introducd a regression because it assumed that if
there were no transactions ready to be checkpointed, that no progress
could be made on making space available in the journal, and so the
journal should be aborted. This assumption is false; it could be the
case that simply calling jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() will recover the
necessary space, or, for small journals, the currently committing
transaction could be responsible for chewing up the required space in
the log, so we need to wait for the currently committing transaction
to finish before trying to force a checkpoint operation.

There is a problem discovered in recent versions of ATI Mach64 driver
in X.org on sparc64 architecture. In short, the driver fails to mmap
MMIO aperture (PCI resource #2).
I've found that kernel's __pci_mmap_make_offset() returns EINVAL. It
checks whether user attempts to mmap more than the resource length,
which is 0x1000 bytes in our case. But PAGE_SIZE on SPARC64 is 0x2000
and this is what actually is being mmaped. So __pci_mmap_make_offset()
failed for this PCI resource.

x86: Clean up late e820 resource allocation
This makes the late e820 resources use 'insert_resource_expand_to_fit()'
instead of doing a 'reserve_region_with_split()', and also avoids
marking them as IORESOURCE_BUSY.
This results in us being perfectly happy to use pre-existing PCI
resources even if they were marked as being in a reserved region, while
still avoiding any _new_ allocations in the reserved regions. It also
makes for a simpler and more accurate resource tree.
Example resource allocation from Jonathan Corbet, who has firmware that
has an e820 reserved entry that covered a big range (e0000000-fed003ff),
and that had various PCI resources in it set up by firmware.
With old kernels, the reserved range would force us to re-allocate all
pre-existing PCI resources, and his reserved range would end up looking
like this:
and because the reserved entry had been split and moved into the
individual resources, and because it used the IORESOURCE_BUSY flag, the
drivers that actually wanted to _use_ those resources couldn't actually
attach to them:
e1000e 0000:00:19.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9e0000-0xfe9fffff]
HDA Intel 0000:00:1b.0: BAR 0: can't reserve mem region [0xfe9dc000-0xfe9dffff]
with this patch, the resource tree instead becomes
ie the one reserved region now ends up surrounding all the PCI resources
that were allocated inside of it by firmware, and because it is not
marked BUSY, drivers have no problem attaching to the pre-allocated
resources.

saner FASYNC handling on file close

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in

libata: add whitelist for devices with known good pata-sata bridges
libata currently imposes a UDMA5 max transfer rate and 200 sector max
transfer size for SATA devices that sit behind a pata-sata bridge. Lots
of devices have known good bridges that don't need this limit applied.
The MTRON SSD disks are such devices. Transfer rates are increased by
20-30% with the restriction removed.
So add a "blacklist" entry for the MTRON devices, with a flag indicating
that the bridge is known good.

sata_via: fix support for 5287
5287 used to be treated as vt6420 but it didn't work. It's new family
of controllers called vt8251 which hosts four SATA ports as M/S of the
two ATA ports. This configuration is rather peculiar in that although
the M/S devices are on the same port, each have its own SCR (or
equivalent link status/control) registers which screws up the
port-link-device hierarchy assumed by libata. Another controller
which falls into this category is ata_piix w/ SIDPR access.
libata now has facility to deal with this class of controllers named
slave_link. A low level driver for such controllers can just call
ata_slave_link_init() on the respective ports and libata will handle
all the difficult parts like following up with single SRST after
hardresetting both ports.
This patch creates new controller class vt8251, implements slave_link
aware init sequence and config space based SCR access for it and moves
5287 to the new class.
This patch is based on Joseph Chan's larger patch which was created
before slave_link was implemented in libata.

powerpc: Update remaining dma_mapping_ops to use map/unmap_page
After the merge of the 32 and 64bit DMA code, dma_direct_ops lost
their map/unmap_single() functions but gained map/unmap_page(). This
caused a problem for Cell because Cell's dma_iommu_fixed_ops called
the dma_direct_ops if the fixed linear mapping was to be used or the
iommu ops if the dynamic window was to be used. So in order to fix
this problem we need to update the 64bit DMA code to use
map/unmap_page.
First, we update the generic IOMMU code so that iommu_map_single()
becomes iommu_map_page() and iommu_unmap_single() becomes
iommu_unmap_page(). Then we propagate these changes up through all
the callers of these two functions and in the process update all the
dma_mapping_ops so that they have map/unmap_page rahter than
map/unmap_single. We can do this because on 64bit there is no HIGHMEM
memory so map/unmap_page ends up performing exactly the same function
as map/unmap_single, just taking different arguments.
This has no affect on drivers because the dma_map_single_attrs() just
ends up calling the map_page() function of the appropriate
dma_mapping_ops and similarly the dma_unmap_single_attrs() calls
unmap_page().
This fixes an oops on Cell blades, which oops on boot without this
because they call dma_direct_ops.map_single, which is NULL.

powerpc: Fix swapcontext system for VSX + old ucontext size

sys_swapcontext system call and supplying smaller ucontext_t
structures will currently get an EINVAL error if the task has
used VSX (e.g. because of calling library code that uses VSX) and

This commit changes this behaviour so that we don't send an EINVAL in

powerpc/ppc64/kdump: Better flag for running relocatable
The __kdump_flag ABI is overly constraining for future development.
As of 2.6.27, the kernel entry point has 4 constraints: Offset 0 is
the starting point for the master (boot) cpu (entered with r3 pointing
to the device tree structure), offset 0x60 is code for the slave cpus
(entered with r3 set to their device tree physical id), offset 0x20 is
used by the iseries hypervisor, and secondary cpus must be well behaved
when the first 256 bytes are copied to address 0.
Placing the __kdump_flag at 0x18 is bad because:
- It was taking the last 8 bytes before the iseries hypervisor data.
- It was 8 bytes for a boolean flag
- It had no way of identifying that the flag was present
- It does leave any room for the master to add any additional code
before branching, which hurts debug.
- It will be unnecessarily hard for 32 bit code to be common (8 bytes)
Now that we have eliminated the use of __kdump_flag in favor of
the standard is_kdump_kernel(), this flag only controls run without
relocating the kernel to PHYSICAL_START (0), so rename it __run_at_load.
Move the flag to 0x5c, 1 word before the secondary cpu entry point at
0x60. Initialize it with "run0" to say it will run at 0 unless it is
set to 1. It only exists if we are relocatable.

powerpc: Kexec exit should not use magic numbers
Commit 54622f10a6aabb8bb2bdacf3dd070046f03dc246 ("powerpc: Support for

tell purgatory that it should be a panic kernel. This part is wrong
and is reverted by this commit.
The kernel gets a list of memory blocks and a entry point from user space.
Its job is to copy the blocks into place and then branch to the designated
entry point (after turning "off" the mmu).
The user space tool inserts a trampoline, called purgatory, that runs
before the user supplied code. Its job is to establish the entry
environment for the new kernel or other application based on the contents
of memory. The purgatory code is compiled and embedded in the tool,
where it is later patched using the elf symbol table using elf symbols.
Since the tool knows it is creating a purgatory that will run after a
kernel crash, it should just patch purgatory (or the kernel directly)
if something needs to happen.

gianfar: Fix race in TBI/SerDes configuration
The init_phy() function attaches to the PHY, then configures the
SerDes<->TBI link (in SGMII mode). The TBI is on the MDIO bus with the PHY
(sort of) and is accessed via the gianfar's MDIO registers, using the
functions gfar_local_mdio_read/write(), which don't do any locking.
The previously attached PHY will start a work-queue on a timer, and
probably an irq handler as well, which will talk to the PHY and thus use
the MDIO bus. This uses phy_read/write(), which have locking, but not
against the gfar_local_mdio versions.
The result is that PHY code will try to use the MDIO bus at the same time
as the SerDes setup code, corrupting the transfers.
Setting up the SerDes before attaching to the PHY will insure that there is
no race between the SerDes code and *our* PHY, but doesn't fix everything.
Typically the PHYs for all gianfar devices are on the same MDIO bus, which
is associated with the first gianfar device. This means that the first
gianfar's SerDes code could corrupt the MDIO transfers for a different
gianfar's PHY.
The lock used by phy_read/write() is contained in the mii_bus structure,
which is pointed to by the PHY. This is difficult to access from the
gianfar drivers, as there is no link between a gianfar device and the
mii_bus which shares the same MDIO registers. As far as the device layer
and drivers are concerned they are two unrelated devices (which happen to
share registers).
Generally all gianfar devices' PHYs will be on the bus associated with the
first gianfar. But this might not be the case, so simply locking the
gianfar's PHY's mii bus might not lock the mii bus that the SerDes setup
code is going to use.
We solve this by having the code that creates the gianfar platform device
look in the device tree for an mdio device that shares the gianfar's
registers. If one is found the ID of its platform device is saved in the
gianfar's platform data.
A new function in the gianfar mii code, gfar_get_miibus(), can use the bus
ID to search through the platform devices for a gianfar_mdio device with
the right ID. The platform device's driver data is the mii_bus structure,
which the SerDes setup code can use to lock the current bus.
