While testing the driver on PPC, we ran into a crash with LRO, Jumbo frames.
With CONFIG_PPC_64K_PAGES configured (a default in PPC), MAX_SKB_FRAGS drops to 3 and we were crossing the array limits on skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[].
Now we coalesce the frags from the same physical page into one slot in
skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] and go to the next index when the frag is from
different physical page.
This patch is against the net-2.6 tree.

2.6.31-rc introduced an architecture level set checker based on facility
bits. e.g. if the kernel is compiled to run only on z9, several facility
bits are checked very early and the kernel refuses to boot if a z9 specific
facility is missing.
Until now kvm on s390 did not implement the store facility extended (STFLE)
instruction. A 2.6.31-rc kernel that was compiled for z9 or higher did not
boot in kvm. This patch implements stfle.
This patch should go in before 2.6.31.

When NAPI is disabled while we're in net_rx_action, we end up
calling __napi_complete without flushing GRO packets. This is
a bug as it would cause the GRO packets to linger, of course it
also literally BUGs to catch error like this :)
This patch changes it to napi_complete, with the obligatory IRQ
reenabling. This should be safe because we've only just disabled
IRQs and it does not materially affect the test conditions in
between.

When using 64k page sizes, our PTE pages are split in two halves,
the second half containing the "extension" used to keep track of
individual 4k pages when not using HW 64k pages.
However, our page tables used for hugetlb have a slightly different
format and don't carry that "second half".
Our code that batched PTEs to be invalidated unconditionally reads
the "second half" (to put it into the batch), which means that when
called to invalidate hugetlb PTEs, it will access unrelated memory.
It breaks when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is enabled.
This fixes it by only accessing the second half when the _PAGE_COMBO
bit is set in the first half, which indicates that we are dealing with
a "combo" page which represents 16x4k subpages. Anything else shouldn't
have this bit set and thus not require loading from the second half.

spin_lock() can hang if called while the timebase is frozen,

Several platforms use their own copy of what is essentially the same code,
using RTAS to synchronize the timebases when bringing up new CPUs. This
moves it all into a single common implementation and additionally
turns the spinlock into a raw spinlock since the former can rely on
the timebase not being frozen when spinlock debugging is enabled, and finally
masks interrupts while the timebase is disabled.

RTAS currently uses a normal spinlock. However it can be called from
contexts where this is not necessarily a good idea. For example, it
can be called while syncing timebases, with the core timebase being
frozen. Unfortunately, that will deadlock in case of lock contention
when spinlock debugging is enabled as the spin lock debugging code
will try to use __delay() which ... relies on the timebase being
enabled.
Also RTAS can be used in some low level IRQ handling code path so it
may as well be a raw spinlock for -rt sake.

Based on initial work from: Dale Farnsworth <dale@farnsworth.org>
Add the low level irq tracing hooks for 32-bit powerpc needed
to enable full lockdep functionality.
The approach taken to deal with the code in entry_32.S is that
we don't trace all the transitions of MSR:EE when we just turn
it off to peek at TI_FLAGS without races. Only when we are
calling into C code or returning from exceptions with a state
that have changed from what lockdep thinks.
There's a little bugger though: If we take an exception that
keeps interrupts enabled (such as an alignment exception) while
interrupts are enabled, we will call trace_hardirqs_on() on the
way back spurriously. Not a big deal, but to get rid of it would
require remembering in pt_regs that the exception was one of the
type that kept interrupts enabled which we don't know at this
stage. (Well, we could test all cases for regs->trap but that
sucks too much).

Alright, I've reworked this now so that if we get one of these cases
where there's a bsr that's > 4k and < 64k on a 64k kernel we'll only
advertise that it is a 4k BSR to userspace. I think this is the best
solution since user programs are only supposed to look at sysfs to
determine how much can be mapped, and libbsr does this as well.
Please consider for 2.6.31 as a fix, thanks.

The 32-bit kernel relies on some memory being mapped covering
the kernel text,data and bss at least, early during boot before
the full MMU setup is done. On 32-bit "classic" processors, this
is done using BAT registers.
On 601, the size of BATs is limited to 8M and we use 2 of them
for that initial mapping. This can become quite tight when enabling
features like lockdep, so let's use a 3rd one to bump that mapping
from 16M to 24M. We keep the 4th BAT free as it can be useful for
debugging early boot code to map things like serial ports.

The macio_dev's created to map devices inside the MacIO ASICs
don't have proper dma_ops. This causes crashes on some machines
since the SCSI code calls dma_map_* on our behalf using the
device we hang from.
This fixes it by copying the parent PCI device dma_ops into
the macio_dev when creating it.
