Change ACPI to use dev_archdata instead of firmware_data
This patch changes ACPI to use the new dev_archdata on i386, x86_64
and ia64 (is there any other arch using ACPI ?) to store it's
acpi_handle.
It also removes the firmware_data field from struct device as this
was the only user.
Only build-tested on x86

Add arch specific dev_archdata to struct device
Adds an arch specific struct dev_arch to struct device. This enables
architecture to add specific fields to every device in the system, like

Converts from using struct "class_device" to "struct device" making
everything show up properly in /sys/devices/ with symlinks from the
/sys/class directory.
It also makes the struct sound_card to show up as a "real" device
where all the different sound class devices are placed as childs
and different card attribute files can hang off of. /sys/class/sound is
still a flat directory, but the symlink targets of all devices belonging
to the same card, point the the /sys/devices tree below the new card
device object.
Thanks to Kay for the updates to this patch.

I finally did as you suggested and added the notifier to the struct
bus_type itself. There are still problems to be expected is something
attaches to a bus type where the code can hook in different struct
device sub-classes (which is imho a big bogosity but I won't even try to
argue that case now) but it will solve nicely a number of issues I've
had so far.
That also means that clients interested in registering for such
notifications have to do it before devices are added and after bus types
are registered. Fortunately, most bus types that matter for the various
usage scenarios I have in mind are registerd at postcore_initcall time,
which means I have a really nice spot at arch_initcall time to add my
notifiers.
There are 4 notifications provided. Device being added (before hooked to
the bus) and removed (failure of previous case or after being unhooked
from the bus), along with driver being bound to a device and about to be
unbound.
The usage I have for these are:
- The 2 first ones are used to maintain a struct device_ext that is
hooked to struct device.firmware_data. This structure contains for now a
pointer to the Open Firmware node related to the device (if any), the
NUMA node ID (for quick access to it) and the DMA operations pointers &
iommu table instance for DMA to/from this device. For bus types I own
(like IBM VIO or EBUS), I just maintain that structure directly from the
bus code when creating the devices. But for bus types managed by generic
code like PCI or platform (actually, of_platform which is a variation of
platform linked to Open Firmware device-tree), I need this notifier.
- The other two ones have a completely different usage scenario. I have
cases where multiple devices and their drivers depend on each other. For
example, the IBM EMAC network driver needs to attach to a MAL DMA engine
which is a separate device, and a PHY interface which is also a separate
device. They are all of_platform_device's (well, about to be with my
upcoming patches) but there is no say in what precise order the core
will "probe" them and instanciate the various modules. The solution I
found for that is to have the drivers for emac to use multithread_probe,
and wait for a driver to be bound to the target MAL and PHY control
devices (the device-tree contains reference to the MAL and PHY interface
nodes, which I can then match to of_platform_devices). Right now, I've
been polling, but with that notifier, I can more cleanly wait (with a
timeout of course).

MAX_HEADER is either set to LL_MAX_HEADER or LL_MAX_HEADER + 48, and
this is controlled by a set of CONFIG_* ifdef tests.
It is trying to use LL_MAX_HEADER + 48 when any of the tunnels are
enabled which set hard_header_len like this:
dev->hard_header_len = LL_MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct xxx);
The correct set of tunnel drivers which do this are:
ipip
ip_gre
ip6_tunnel
sit
so make the ifdef test match.

You wouldn't think that doing an ALIGN() macro that aligns something up
to a power-of-two boundary would be likely to have bugs, would you?
But hey, in the wonderful world of mixing integer types, you have to be
careful. This just makes sure that the alignment is interpreted in the
same type as the thing to be aligned.
Thanks to Roland Dreier, who noticed that the amso1100 driver got broken
by the previous fix (that just extended the mask to "unsigned long", but
was still broken in "unsigned long long" - it just happened to be the
same on 64-bit architectures).

Make it break or warn if you pass to spin_lock_irqsave() and friends
something different from "unsigned long flags;". Suprisingly large amount
of these was caught by recent commit
c53421b18f205c5f97c604ae55c6a921f034b0f6 and others.
Idea is largely from FRV typechecking. Suggestions from Andrew Morton.
All stupid typos in first version fixed.
Passes allmodconfig on i386, x86_64, alpha, arm as well as my usual config.
Note #1: checking with sparse is still needed, because a driver can save
and pass around flags or something. So far patch is very intrusive.
Note #2: techically, we should break only if
sizeof(flags) < sizeof(unsigned long),
however, the more pain for getting suspicious code into kernel,
the better.

This is a quick hack to overcome the fact that SRCU currently does not

(David:)
If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example,
because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff
will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path.
But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path
will call unmap_region() on it. That will eventually call down to the
non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range(). On ppc64, at least, that will
cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in
the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the
same PUD. unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud
entries. I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't
have a machine to test it on.
(Hugh:)
prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks
virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from
unmapping before it fails further down. PowerPC should apply the same
prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do.
Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor
is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of
VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if
hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region
when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad
behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge
mappings into a separate region of the address space.

When another interrupt happens in exit_idle the exit idle notifier
could be called an incorrect number of times.
Add a test_and_clear_bit_pda and use it handle the bit
atomically against interrupts to avoid this.

The vgetcpu per CPU initialization previously relied on CPU hotplug
events for all CPUs to initialize the per CPU state. That only
worked only on kernels with CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU enabled. On the
others some CPUs didn't get their state initialized properly
and vgetcpu wouldn't work.
Change the initialization sequence to instead run in a normal
initcall (which runs after the normal CPU bootup) and initialize
all running CPUs there. Later hotplug CPUs are still handled
with an hotplug notifier.
This actually simplifies the code somewhat.

Timer overrides are normally disabled on Nvidia board because
they are commonly wrong, except on new ones with HPET support.
Unfortunately there are quite some Asus boards around that
don't have HPET, but need a timer override.
We don't know yet how to handle this transparently,
but at least add a command line option to force the timer override
and let them boot.

If you call set_personality() with an expression such as:
set_personality(foo ? PERS_FOO1 : PERS_FOO2);
then this evaluates to:
((current->personality == foo ? PERS_FOO1 : PERS_FOO2) ? ...
which is obviously not the intended result. Add the missing parents
to ensure this gets evaluated as expected:
((current->personality == (foo ? PERS_FOO1 : PERS_FOO2)) ? ...

Fix MSPEC driver to build for non SN2 enabled configs as the driver should
work in cached and uncached modes (no fetchop) on these systems. In
addition make MSPEC select IA64_UNCACHED_ALLOCATOR, which is required for
it and move it to arch/ia64/Kconfig to avoid warnings on non ia64
architectures running allmodconfig. Once the Kconfig code is fixed, we can
move it back.

- reorder 'struct vm_struct' to speedup lookups on CPUS with small cache
lines. The fields 'next,addr,size' should be now in the same cache line,
to speedup lookups.
- One minor cleanup in __get_vm_area_node()
- Bugfixes in vmalloc_user() and vmalloc_32_user() NULL returns from
__vmalloc() and __find_vm_area() were not tested.
