The block layer calling convention is blk_queue_<limit name>.
blk_queue_max_sectors predates this practice, leading to some confusion.
Rename the function to appropriately reflect that its intended use is to
set max_hw_sectors.
Also introduce a temporary wrapper for backwards compability. This can
be removed after the merge window is closed.

I create wrong asm code but none test shows that this part of code is wrong.
I am not convinces that were good idea to create asm optimized macros
for caches. The reason is that there is not optimization with previous code
that's why make sense to add old code and do some benchmarking which
functions are faster.

Commit 085219f79cad89291699bd2bfb21c9fdabafe65f
("sparc32: use proper types in struct stat")
Accidently changed the struct stat uid/gid members
to uid_t and gid_t, but those get set to
__kernel_uid32_t and __kernel_gid32_t respectively.
Those are of type 'int' but the structure is meant
to have 'short'. So use uid16_t and gid16_t to
correct this.

Some glibc versions intentionally create lots of alignment faults in
their gconv code, which if not fixed up, results in segfaults during
boot. This can prevent systems booting properly.
There is no clear hard-configurable default for this; the desired
default depends on the nature of the userspace which is going to be
booted.
So, provide a way for the alignment fault handler to be configured via
the kernel command line.

Thanks to testcase and report from Brad Spengler:
--------------------
#include <stdio.h>
typedef int (* _wee)(void);
int main(void)
{
char buf[8] = { '\x81', '\xc7', '\xe0', '\x08', '\x81', '\xe8',
'\x00', '\x00' };
_wee wee;
printf("%p\n", &buf);
wee = (_wee)&buf;
wee();
return 0;
}
--------------------
TSB I-tlb load code tries to use andcc to check the _PAGE_EXEC_4U bit,
but that's bit 12 so it gets sign extended all the way up to bit 63
and the test nearly always passes as a result.
Use sethi to fix the bug.

When the user enables breakpoints through dr7, he can choose
between "local" or "global" enable bits but given how linux is
implemented, both have the same effect.
That said we don't keep track how the user enabled the breakpoints
so when the user requests the dr7 value, we only translate the
"enabled" status using the global enabled bits. It means that if
the user enabled a breakpoint using the local enabled bit, reading
back dr7 will set the global bit and clear the local one.
Apps like Wine expect a full dr7 POKEUSER/PEEKUSER match for emulated
softwares that implement old reverse engineering protection schemes.
We fix that by keeping track of the whole dr7 value given by the user
in the thread structure to drop this bug. We'll think about
something more proper later.
This fixes a 2.6.32 - 2.6.33-x ptrace regression.

Before we had a generic breakpoint API, ptrace was accepting
breakpoints on NULL address in x86. The new API refuse them,
without given strong reasons. We need to follow the previous
behaviour as some userspace apps like Wine need such NULL
breakpoints to ensure old emulated software protections
are still working.
This fixes a 2.6.32 - 2.6.33-x ptrace regression.

We broke "acpi=ht" in 2.6.32 by disabling MADT parsing
for acpi=disabled. e5b8fc6ac158f65598f58dba2c0d52ba3b412f52
This also broke systems which invoked acpi=ht via DMI blacklist.
acpi=ht is a really ugly hack,
but restore it for those that still use it.

The check for a valid mux name should be performed regardless of whether
DEBUG_FS is enabled or not. Otherwise without DEBUG_FS, we get:

This fixes the issue currently seen with boards not booting up
if DEBUG_FS is not enabled in defconfig.
Note that the earlier ifndef + ifdef now becomes simpler ifdef else:
If CONFIG_OMAP_MUX is selected, we use pin names. If it's not selected,

This follows the parisc change to ensure that tracehook_signal_handler()
is aware of when we are single-stepping in order to ptrace_notify()
appropriately. While this was implemented for 32-bit SH, sh64 neglected
to make use of TIF_SINGLESTEP when it was folded in with the 32-bit code,
resulting in ptrace_notify() never being called.
As sh64 uses all of the other abstractions already, this simply plugs in
the thread flag in the appropriate enable/disable paths and fixes up the
tracehook notification accordingly. With this in place, sh64 is brought
in line with what 32-bit is already doing.

Recent U-Boot commit 5ccd29c3679b3669b0bde5c501c1aa0f325a7acb caused
the "cpu-release-addr" device tree property to contain the physical RAM
location that secondary cores were spinning at. Previously, the
"cpu-release-addr" property contained a value referencing the boot page
translation address range of 0xfffffxxx, which then indirectly accessed
RAM.
The "cpu-release-addr" is currently ioremapped and the secondary cores
kicked. However, due to the recent change in "cpu-release-addr", it
sometimes points to a memory location in low memory that cannot be
ioremapped. For example on a P2020-based board with 512MB of RAM the
following error occurs on bootup:
<...>
