Reduce default cacheline size on 64-bit powerpc from 128 bytes to 64.
This is the architected minimum. In most cases we'll still end up using
cache line information from the device tree, but defaults are used during
early boot and doing a few dcbst/icbi's too many there won't do any harm.

As part of the new irq code pseries_kexec_cpu_down() was split into a
xics and mpic version. The vpa unregister logic is now only done in the
xics routine, and although that's ok in practice (we don't have SPLPAR
machines with mpic), I'd rather have the two concepts stay separate.
So move the vpa unregister into pseries_kexec_cpu_down(), which gets called
by both the xics and mpic routines. This also gives us an obvious place to
put any new kexec-down logic needed in future.

This fixes a hang on ppc32.
The problem was that I was comparing a 32-bit quantity with a 64-bit
quantity, and consequently time wasn't advancing. This makes us use a
64-bit quantity on all platforms, which ends up simplifying the code
since we can now get rid of the tb_last_stamp variable (which actually
fixes another bug that Ben H and I noticed while going carefully through
the code).
This works fine on my G4 tibook. Let me know how it goes on your
machines.

The following change from -mm is important to 2.6.18 (actually to 2.6.17
but its too late for that). This was contributed over three months ago
by VIA to Bartlomiej and nothing happened. As a result the new chipset
is now out and Linux won't run on it. By the time 2.6.18 is finalised
this will be the defacto standard VIA chipset so support would be a good
plan.
Tested in -mm for a while, its essentially a PCI ident update but for
the bridge chip because VIA do things in weird ways.

The unwinder fallback logic still had potential for falling through to
the legacy stack trace code without printing an indication (at once
serving as a separator) of this.
Further, the stack pointer retrieval for the fallback should be as
restrictive as possible (in order to avoid having the legacy stack
tracer try to access invalid memory). The patch tightens that, but
this could certainly be further improved.
Also making the call_trace command line option now conditional upon
CONFIG_STACK_UNWIND (as it's meaningless otherwise).

The check for the MCFG table being reserved in the e820 map was originally
added to detect a broken BIOS in a preproduction Intel SDV. However it also
breaks the Apple x86 Macs, which can't supply this properly, but need
a working MCFG. With this patch they wouldn't use the MCFG and not work.
After some discussion I think it's best to remove the heuristic again.
It also failed on some other boxes (although it didn't cause much
problems there because old style port access for PCI config space
still works as fallback), but the preproduction SDVs can just use
pci=nommcfg. Supporting production machines properly is more
important.
Edgar Hucek did all the debugging work.

Eran Ben-Avi <eranpublic@yahoo.com> pointed out that the arch/ppc version
of smp_generic_take_timebase disables interrupts on entry but exits without
restoring them. However, both it and the arch/powerpc version have another
problem, which is that they use local_irq_disable/enable rather than
local_irq_save/restore, and they are called with interrupts disabled.
This fixes both problems; it changes a return to a break in the arch/ppc
version, and changes both versions to use local_irq_save/restore.

This fixes a problem introduced in 5db9fa9593e2ff69f2b95f9d59229dc4faaa564d.
The last_jiffy per-cpu variable is only 32 bits on 32-bit machines, but it
was being compared with a 64-bit quantity (tb_next_jiffy), which resulted in
time not advancing.
This fixes it by changing last_jiffy to be 64 bits on all platforms. With
this, we no longer need tb_last_stamp as a 32-bit version of tb_last_jiffy,
so this gets rid of tb_last_stamp and we just use tb_last_jiffy instead.
This also fixes a bug when the boot cpu is not online, because using
tb_last_stamp could have caused the wrong timebase origin value to be used
when calculating the time of day.

This adds a new hardware information table for mpic. This enables
the mpic code to deal with mpic controllers with different register
layouts and hardware behaviours.
This introduces CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD. For boards with non standard mpic
controllers, select CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD and add its hardware information
in the mpic_infos[] array.
TSI108/109 PIC takes the first index of weird hardware information
table. :) The table can be extended. The Tsi108/109 PIC looks like
standard OpenPIC but, in fact, is different in register mapping and
behavior.
The patch does not affect the behavior of standard mpic. If
CONFIG_MPIC_WEIRD is not defined, the code is essentially identical to
the current code.
[benh@kernel.crashing.org:
This patch is a slightly cleaned up version of Zang Roy's support for
the TSI108 MPIC variant. It also fixes up MPC7448_hpc2 to use the new
version of the type macros and changes the way MPIC is selected in
Kconfig to better match what is done for other system devices.

This problem was introduced by changeset
14778d9072e53d2171f66ffd9657daff41acfaed
Unlike the hugetlb code paths, the normal fault code is not setup to
propagate PTE changes for large page sizes correctly like the ones we
make for I/O mappings in io_remap_pfn_range().
It is absolutely necessary to update all sub-ptes of a largepage
mapping on a fault. Adding special handling for this would add
considerably complexity to tlb_batch_add(). So let's just side-step
the issue and forcefully dirty any writable PTEs created by
io_remap_pfn_range().
The only other real option would be to disable to large PTE code of
io_remap_pfn_range() and we really don't want to do that.
Much thanks to Mikael Pettersson for tracking down this problem and
testing debug patches.

ipv6_add_addr allocates a struct inet6_ifaddr and a dstentry, but it
doesn't install the dstentry in ifa->rt until after it releases the
addrconf_hash_lock. This means other CPUs will be able to see the new
address while it hasn't been initialized completely yet.
One possible fix would be to grab the ifp->lock spinlock when
creating the address struct; a simpler fix is to just move the
assignment.

"ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors", found that this counter couldn't increase

ipv6IfStatsInAddrErrors OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Counter32
MAX-ACCESS read-only

DESCRIPTION
"The number of input datagrams discarded because
the IPv6 address in their IPv6 header's destination
field was not a valid address to be received at
this entity. This count includes invalid
addresses (e.g., ::0) and unsupported addresses
(e.g., addresses with unallocated prefixes). For
entities which are not IPv6 routers and therefore
do not forward datagrams, this counter includes
datagrams discarded because the destination address
was not a local address."
::= { ipv6IfStatsEntry 5 }
When I send packet to host with destination that is ether invalid
address(::0) or unsupported addresses(1::1), the Linux kernel just
discard the packet, and the counter doesn't increase(in the function
ip6_pkt_discard).
