Since the introduction of the acquire_console_sem calls in
0333d83509c7d8496c8965b5ba9bc0c98e83c259, kexecing can cause the
kernel to deadlock:
ps3fb_shutdown()
-> unregister_framebuffer()
-> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EVENT_FB_UNBIND)
-> fbcon_fb_unbind()
-> unbind_con_driver()
-> bind_con_driver()
[ acquires console_sem ]
-> fbcon_deinit()
-> fbops->fb_release(newinfo, 0)
-> ps3fb_release()
-> ps3fb_sync()
[ acquires console_sem ]
This change avoids the deadlock by moving the acquire_console_sem()
out of ps3fb_sync(), and puts it into the two other callsites, leaving
ps3fb_release() to call ps3fb_sync() without the console semaphore.
[Geert]
- Corrected call sequence above
- ps3fb_release() may be called with and without console_sem held. This is an
inconsistency that should be fixed at the fb level, but for now, try to
acquire console_sem in ps3fb_release().
I think it's safer to let ps3fb_release() try to acquire console_sem and
not refresh the screen if it fails, than to call ps3fb_sync() without
holding console_sem, as ps3fb_par may be modified at the same time, causing
crashes or lockups.
Besides, ps3fb_release() only calls ps3fb_sync() to refresh the screen
when display flipping is disabled, which is an uncommon case (except during
shutdown/kexec).

In ps3fb_shutdown, freeing the framebuffer will cause fb_info (in
dev->core.driver_data) to be free()ed, which we potentially access
from the ps3fbd kthread.
This change frees the framebuffer after stopping the ps3fbd kthread.

The bug causes corruptions of data read from flash.
The original code performs cache invalidation from "adr" to "adr + len"
in do_write_buffer(). Since len and adr could be updated in the code
before invalidation - it causes improper setting of cache invalidation
regions.

ACPI _PS3 cause S4 breaks in the second attempt. The system has a _PS3
method for IDE, which will call into SMM mode. Currently we haven't clue
why just the second attempt fails, as it's totally in BIOS code, so
blacklist the system so far for 2.6.24.
A possible suspect is ACPI NVS isn't save/restore, we will revisit the
bug after linux does ACPI NVS save/restore.

After non-classifying reset, ehc->classes[] could contain
ATA_DEV_UNKNOWN which used to be normalized to ATA_DEV_NONE for
consistency. However, this causes unfortunate side effect for drivers
which have non-classifying hardresets (e.g. sata_nv) by making
hardreset report ATA_DEV_NONE for non-classifying resets and thus
makes EH believe that the port is unoccupied and recovery can be
skipped. The end result is that after a device is swapped with
another one, the new device isn't attached after the old one is
detached.
This patch makes ata_eh_reset() not normalize UNKNOWN to NONE after
non-classifying resets. This fixes the above problem. As UNKNOWN and
NONE are handled differently by only EH hotplug logic, this doesn't
cause other behavior changes.

The previous patch fixed spurious read faults from occuring by copying
the data if we happen to have a single block at the end of a page. It
appears that gcc cannot guarantee 16-byte alignment in the kernel with
__attribute__. The following report from Torben Viets shows a buffer
that's only 8-byte aligned:

Since the hardware must have 16-byte alignment, the following patch fixes

For cards that initially have the MAC address stored in reverse order,
the forcedeth driver uses a flag to signal whether the address was
already corrected, so that it is not reversed again on a subsequent
probe.
Unfortunately this flag, which is stored in a register of the card,
seems to get lost during suspend, resulting in the MAC address being
reversed again. To fix that, the MAC address needs to be written back
in reversed order before we suspend and the flag needs to be reset.
The flag is still required because at least kexec will never write
back the reversed address and thus needs to know what state the card
is in.

This makes the ->poll() routines of the E100, E1000, E1000E, IXGB, and
IXGBE drivers complete ->poll() consistently.
Now they will all break out when the amount of RX work done is less
than 'budget'.
At a later time, we may want put back code to include the TX work as
well (as at least one other NAPI driver does, but by in large NAPI
drivers do not do this). But if so, it should be done consistently
across the board to all of these drivers.

When we add the generic napi_disable_pending() breakout
logic to net_rx_action() it means that napi_disable()
can cause NAPI poll interrupt events to be disabled.
And this is exactly what we want. If a napi_disable()
is pending, and we are looping in the ->poll(), we want
->poll() event interrupts to stay disabled and we want
to complete the NAPI poll ASAP.
When ->poll() break out during device down was being handled on a
per-driver basis, often these drivers would turn interrupts back on
when '!netif_running()' was detected.
And this would just cause a reschedule of the NAPI ->poll() in the
interrupt handler before the napi_disable() could get in there and
grab the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit.
The vast majority of drivers don't care if napi_disable() might have
the side effect of disabling NAPI ->poll() event interrupts. In all
such cases, when a napi_disable() is performed, the driver just
disabled interrupts or is about to.
However there were three exceptions to this in PCNET32, R8169, and
SKY2. To fix those cases, at the subsequent napi_enable() points, I
added code to ensure that the ->poll() interrupt events are enabled in
the hardware.

It is possible for the TX ring to have packets sit in it for unbounded
amounts of time.
The only way to defer TX interrupts in the chip is to periodically set
"mark" bits, when processing of a TX descriptor with the mark bit set
is complete it triggers the interrupt for the TX queue's LDG.
A consequence of this kind of scheme is that if packet flow suddenly
stops, the remaining TX packets will just sit there.
If this happens, since those packets could be charged to TCP socket
send queues, such sockets could get stuck.
The simplest solution is to divorce the socket ownership of the packet
once the device takes the SKB, by using skb_orphan() in
niu_start_xmit().
In hindsight, it would have been much nicer if the chip provided two
interrupt sources for TX (like basically every other ethernet chip
does). Namely, keep the "mark" bit, but also signal the LDG when the
TX queue becomes completely empty. That way there is no need to have
a deadlock breaker like this.

niu_slowpath_interrupt() expects values to be setup in lp->{v0,v1,v2}
but they aren't. That's only done by niu_schedule_napi() which is
done later in the interrupt path.
If niu_rx_error() returns zero, and v0 is clear, hit the
RX_DMA_CTL_STATE register with a RX_DMA_CTL_STAT_MEX.
Only emit verbose RX error logs if a fatal channel or port error is
signalled. Other cases will be recorded into statistics by
