49ab972aea sparc: Remove BKL from apc
commit ab772027 (sparc: arch/sparc/kernel/apc.c to unlocked_ioctl)
added lock/unlock_kernel() to the apc ioctl code.

The code needs no serialization at all. Neither put/get_user nor the
read/write access to the sbus devices require it. Remove BKL.

cycle_kernel_lock() was added during the big BKL pushdown. It should
ensure the serializiation against driver init code. In this case there
is nothing to serialize. Remove it as well.

a2e2725541 net: Introduce recvmmsg socket syscall
Meaning receive multiple messages, reducing the number of syscalls and
net stack entry/exit operations.

Next patches will introduce mechanisms where protocols that want to
optimize this operation will provide an unlocked_recvmsg operation.

This takes into account comments made by:

. Paul Moore: sock_recvmsg is called only for the first datagram,
  sock_recvmsg_nosec is used for the rest.

. Caitlin Bestler: recvmmsg now has a struct timespec timeout, that
  works in the same fashion as the ppoll one.

  If the underlying protocol returns a datagram with MSG_OOB set, this
  will make recvmmsg return right away with as many datagrams (+ the OOB
  one) it has received so far.

. Rémi Denis-Courmont & Steven Whitehouse: If we receive N < vlen
  datagrams and then recvmsg returns an error, recvmmsg will return
  the successfully received datagrams, store the error and return it
  in the next call.

This paves the way for a subsequent optimization, sk_prot->unlocked_recvmsg,
where we will be able to acquire the lock only at batch start and end, not at
every underlying recvmsg call.

The hardware counter ->event_base state records and encoding of
the "struct perf_event_map" entry used for the event.

We use this to make sure that when we have more than 1 event,
both can be scheduled into the hardware at the same time.

As usual, structure of code is largely cribbed from powerpc.

a70c691376 sparc64: implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator
Implement page mapping percpu first chunk allocator as a fallback to
the embedding allocator.  The next patch will make the embedding
allocator check distances between units to determine whether it fits
within the vmalloc area so that this fallback can be used on such
cases.

sparc64 currently has relatively small vmalloc area which makes it
impossible to create any dynamic chunks on certain configurations
leading to percpu allocation failures.  This and the next patch should
allow those configurations to keep working until proper solution is
found.

While at it, mark pcpu_cpu_distance() with __init.

cdd6c482c9 perf: Do the big rename: Performance Counters -> Performance Events
Bye-bye Performance Counters, welcome Performance Events!

In the past few months the perfcounters subsystem has grown out its
initial role of counting hardware events, and has become (and is
becoming) a much broader generic event enumeration, reporting, logging,
monitoring, analysis facility.

Naming its core object 'perf_counter' and naming the subsystem
'perfcounters' has become more and more of a misnomer. With pending
code like hw-breakpoints support the 'counter' name is less and
less appropriate.

All in one, we've decided to rename the subsystem to 'performance
events' and to propagate this rename through all fields, variables
and API names. (in an ABI compatible fashion)

The word 'event' is also a bit shorter than 'counter' - which makes
it slightly more convenient to write/handle as well.

Thanks goes to Stephane Eranian who first observed this misnomer and
suggested a rename.

User-space tooling and ABI compatibility is not affected - this patch
should be function-invariant. (Also, defconfigs were not touched to
keep the size down.)

This patch has been generated via the following script:

  FILES=$(find * -type f | grep -vE 'oprofile|[^K]config')

  sed -i \
    -e 's/PERF_EVENT_/PERF_RECORD_/g' \
    -e 's/PERF_COUNTER/PERF_EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g' \
    -e 's/nb_counters/nb_events/g' \
    -e 's/swcounter/swevent/g' \
    -e 's/tpcounter_event/tp_event/g' \
    $FILES

  for N in $(find . -name perf_counter.[ch]); do
    M=$(echo $N | sed 's/perf_counter/perf_event/g')
    mv $N $M
  done

  FILES=$(find . -name perf_event.*)

  sed -i \
    -e 's/COUNTER_MASK/REG_MASK/g' \
    -e 's/COUNTER/EVENT/g' \
    -e 's/\<event\>/event_id/g' \
    -e 's/counter/event/g' \
    -e 's/Counter/Event/g' \
    $FILES

... to keep it as correct as possible. This script can also be
used by anyone who has pending perfcounters patches - it converts
a Linux kernel tree over to the new naming. We tried to time this
change to the point in time where the amount of pending patches
is the smallest: the end of the merge window.

Namespace clashes were fixed up in a preparatory patch - and some
stylistic fallout will be fixed up in a subsequent patch.

( NOTE: 'counters' are still the proper terminology when we deal
  with hardware registers - and these sed scripts are a bit
  over-eager in renaming them. I've undone some of that, but
  in case there's something left where 'counter' would be
  better than 'event' we can undo that on an individual basis
  instead of touching an otherwise nicely automated patch. )

cd74c86bdf perf_counter, powerpc, sparc: Fix compilation after perf_counter_overflow() change
Commit 5622f295 ("x86, perf_counter, bts: Optimize BTS overflow
handling") removed the regs field from struct perf_sample_data and
added a regs parameter to perf_counter_overflow().  This breaks the
build on powerpc (and Sparc) as reported by Sachin Sant:

  arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c: In function 'record_and_restart':
  arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c:1165: error: unknown field 'regs' specified in initializer

This adjusts arch/powerpc/kernel/perf_counter.c to correspond with the
new struct perf_sample_data and perf_counter_overflow().

[ v2: also fix Sparc, Markus Metzger <markus.t.metzger@intel.com> ]

51b563fc93 arm, cris, mips, sparc, powerpc, um, xtensa: fix build with bash 4.0
Albin Tonnerre <albin.tonnerre@free-electrons.com> reported:

    Bash 4 filters out variables which contain a dot in them.
    This happends to be the case of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds.
    This is rather unfortunate, as it now causes
    build failures when using SHELL=/bin/bash to compile,
    or when bash happens to be used by make (eg when it's /bin/sh)

Remove the common definition of CPPFLAGS_vmlinux.lds by
pushing relevant stuff to either Makefile.build or the
arch specific kernel/Makefile where we build the linker script.

This is also nice cleanup as we move the information out where
it is used.

Notes for the different architectures touched:

arm - we use an already exported symbol
cris - we use a config symbol aleady available
       [Not build tested]
mips - the jiffies complexity has moved to vmlinux.lds.S where we need it.
       Added a few variables to CPPFLAGS - they are only used by
       the linker script.
       [Not build tested]
powerpc - removed assignment that is not needed
          [not build tested]
sparc - simplified it using $(BITS)
um - introduced a few new exported variables to deal with this
xtensa - added options to CPP invocation
         [not build tested]

09d3f3f0e0 sparc: Kill PROM console driver.
Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.

Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.

If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us.  We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)
so there are no excuses.

bd4352cadf sparc64: Fix bootup with mcount in some configs.
Functions invoked early when booting up a cpu can't use
tracing because mcount requires a valid 'current_thread_info()'
and TLB mappings to be setup.

The code path of sun4v_register_mondo_queues --> register_one_mondo
is one such case.  sun4v_register_mondo_queues already has the
necessary 'notrace' annotation, but register_one_mondo does not.

Normally register_one_mondo is inlined so the bug doesn't trigger,
but with some config/compiler combinations, it won't be so we
must properly mark it notrace.

While we're here, add 'notrace' annoations to prom_printf and
prom_halt so that early error handling won't have the same problem.

e6617c6ec2 sparc64: Kill spurious NMI watchdog triggers by increasing limit to 30 seconds.
This is a compromise and a temporary workaround for bootup NMI
watchdog triggers some people see with qla2xxx devices present.

This happens when, for example:

CPU 0 is in the driver init and looping submitting mailbox commands to
load the firmware, then waiting for completion.

CPU 1 is receiving the device interrupts.  CPU 1 is where the NMI
watchdog triggers.

CPU 0 is submitting mailbox commands fast enough that by the time CPU
1 returns from the device interrupt handler, a new one is pending.
This sequence runs for more than 5 seconds.

The problematic case is CPU 1's timer interrupt running when the
barrage of device interrupts begin.  Then we have:

	timer interrupt
	return for softirq checking
	pending, thus enable interrupts

		 qla2xxx interrupt
		 return
		 qla2xxx interrupt
		 return
		 ... 5+ seconds pass
		 final qla2xxx interrupt for fw load
		 return

	run timer softirq
	return

At some point in the multi-second qla2xxx interrupt storm we trigger
the NMI watchdog on CPU 1 from the NMI interrupt handler.

The timer softirq, once we get back to running it, is smart enough to
run the timer work enough times to make up for the missed timer
interrupts.

However, the NMI watchdogs (both x86 and sparc) use the timer
interrupt count to notice the cpu is wedged.  But in the above
scenerio we'll receive only one such timer interrupt even if we last
all the way back to running the timer softirq.

The default watchdog trigger point is only 5 seconds, which is pretty
low (the softwatchdog triggers at 60 seconds).  So increase it to 30
seconds for now.

ee18d64c1f KEYS: Add a keyctl to install a process's session keyring on its parent [try #6]
Add a keyctl to install a process's session keyring onto its parent.  This
replaces the parent's session keyring.  Because the COW credential code does
not permit one process to change another process's credentials directly, the
change is deferred until userspace next starts executing again.  Normally this
will be after a wait*() syscall.

To support this, three new security hooks have been provided:
cred_alloc_blank() to allocate unset security creds, cred_transfer() to fill in
the blank security creds and key_session_to_parent() - which asks the LSM if
the process may replace its parent's session keyring.

The replacement may only happen if the process has the same ownership details
as its parent, and the process has LINK permission on the session keyring, and
the session keyring is owned by the process, and the LSM permits it.

Note that this requires alteration to each architecture's notify_resume path.
This has been done for all arches barring blackfin, m68k* and xtensa, all of
which need assembly alteration to support TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME.  This allows the
replacement to be performed at the point the parent process resumes userspace
execution.

This allows the userspace AFS pioctl emulation to fully emulate newpag() and
the VIOCSETTOK and VIOCSETTOK2 pioctls, all of which require the ability to
alter the parent process's PAG membership.  However, since kAFS doesn't use
PAGs per se, but rather dumps the keys into the session keyring, the session
keyring of the parent must be replaced if, for example, VIOCSETTOK is passed
the newpag flag.

This can be tested with the following program:

	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <stdlib.h>
	#include <keyutils.h>

	#define KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT	18

	#define OSERROR(X, S) do { if ((long)(X) == -1) { perror(S); exit(1); } } while(0)

	int main(int argc, char **argv)
	{
		key_serial_t keyring, key;
		long ret;

		keyring = keyctl_join_session_keyring(argv[1]);
		OSERROR(keyring, "keyctl_join_session_keyring");

		key = add_key("user", "a", "b", 1, keyring);
		OSERROR(key, "add_key");

		ret = keyctl(KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT);
		OSERROR(ret, "KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT");

		return 0;
	}

Compiled and linked with -lkeyutils, you should see something like:

	[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show
	Session Keyring
	       -3 --alswrv   4043  4043  keyring: _ses
	355907932 --alswrv   4043    -1   \_ keyring: _uid.4043
	[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag
	[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show
	Session Keyring
	       -3 --alswrv   4043  4043  keyring: _ses
	1055658746 --alswrv   4043  4043   \_ user: a
	[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ /tmp/newpag hello
	[dhowells@andromeda ~]$ keyctl show
	Session Keyring
	       -3 --alswrv   4043  4043  keyring: hello
	340417692 --alswrv   4043  4043   \_ user: a

Where the test program creates a new session keyring, sticks a user key named
'a' into it and then installs it on its parent.

d8ed1d43e1 sparc64: Validate linear D-TLB misses.
When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any
virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses.  But with kgdb, kernel
address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary
crap.

So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory
that actually exists.

In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap
into the kernel image.  And in order to make that less expensive we
make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is
decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit
physical address space.  We can do this because bit 41 indicates
"I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges.

The result of this is that:

1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size

2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap

We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated
once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have
crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such.

If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal
inside of the cpu.  So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu
will be out of trap levels and enter RED state.

To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check
to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set.  We
could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an
unnecessary extra memory reference.

On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations
into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB
misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks
in the TLB miss path.

a9919646d1 sparc32: Kill trap table freeing code.
Normally, srmmu uses different trap table register values to allow
determination of the cpu we're on.  All of the trap tables have
identical content, they just sit at different offsets from the first
trap table, and the offset shifted down and masked out determines
the cpu we are on.

The code tries to free them up when they aren't actually used
(don't have all 4 cpus, we're on sun4d, etc.) but that causes
problems.

For one thing it triggers false positives in the DMA debugging
code.  And fixing that up while preserving this relative offset
thing isn't trivial.

So just kill the freeing code, it costs us at most 3 pages, big
deal...

bcb2107fdb sparc64: use embedding percpu first chunk allocator
sparc64 currently allocates a large page for each cpu and partially
remap them into vmalloc area much like what lpage first chunk
allocator did.  As a 4M page is used for each cpu, this results in
very large unit size and also adds TLB pressure due to the double
mapping of pages in the first chunk.

This patch converts sparc64 to use the embedding percpu first chunk
allocator which now knows how to handle NUMA configurations.  This
simplifies the code a lot, doesn't incur any extra TLB pressure and
results in better utilization of address space.

fb435d5233 percpu: add pcpu_unit_offsets[]
Currently units are mapped sequentially into address space.  This
patch adds pcpu_unit_offsets[] which allows units to be mapped to
arbitrary offsets from the chunk base address.  This is necessary to
allow sparse embedding which might would need to allocate address
ranges and memory areas which aren't aligned to unit size but
allocation atom size (page or large page size).  This also simplifies
things a bit by removing the need to calculate offset from unit
number.

With this change, there's no need for the arch code to know
pcpu_unit_size.  Update pcpu_setup_first_chunk() and first chunk
allocators to return regular 0 or -errno return code instead of unit
size or -errno.

fd1e8a1fe2 percpu: introduce pcpu_alloc_info and pcpu_group_info
Till now, non-linear cpu->unit map was expressed using an integer
array which maps each cpu to a unit and used only by lpage allocator.
Although how many units have been placed in a single contiguos area
(group) is known while building unit_map, the information is lost when
the result is recorded into the unit_map array.  For lpage allocator,
as all allocations are done by lpages and whether two adjacent lpages
are in the same group or not is irrelevant, this didn't cause any
problem.  Non-linear cpu->unit mapping will be used for sparse
embedding and this grouping information is necessary for that.

This patch introduces pcpu_alloc_info which contains all the
information necessary for initializing percpu allocator.
pcpu_alloc_info contains array of pcpu_group_info which describes how
units are grouped and mapped to cpus.  pcpu_group_info also has
base_offset field to specify its offset from the chunk's base address.
pcpu_build_alloc_info() initializes this field as if all groups are
allocated back-to-back as is currently done but this will be used to
sparsely place groups.

pcpu_alloc_info is a rather complex data structure which contains a
flexible array which in turn points to nested cpu_map arrays.

* pcpu_alloc_alloc_info() and pcpu_free_alloc_info() are provided to
  help dealing with pcpu_alloc_info.

* pcpu_lpage_build_unit_map() is updated to build pcpu_alloc_info,
  generalized and renamed to pcpu_build_alloc_info().
  @cpu_distance_fn may be NULL indicating that all cpus are of
  LOCAL_DISTANCE.

* pcpul_lpage_dump_cfg() is updated to process pcpu_alloc_info,
  generalized and renamed to pcpu_dump_alloc_info().  It now also
  prints which group each alloc unit belongs to.

* pcpu_setup_first_chunk() now takes pcpu_alloc_info instead of the
  separate parameters.  All first chunk allocators are updated to use
  pcpu_build_alloc_info() to build alloc_info and call
  pcpu_setup_first_chunk() with it.  This has the side effect of
  packing units for sparse possible cpus.  ie. if cpus 0, 2 and 4 are
  possible, they'll be assigned unit 0, 1 and 2 instead of 0, 2 and 4.

* x86 setup_pcpu_lpage() is updated to deal with alloc_info.

* sparc64 setup_per_cpu_areas() is updated to build alloc_info.

Although the changes made by this patch are pretty pervasive, it
doesn't cause any behavior difference other than packing of sparse
cpus.  It mostly changes how information is passed among
initialization functions and makes room for more flexibility.

74d46d6b2d percpu, sparc64: fix sparse possible cpu map handling
percpu code has been assuming num_possible_cpus() == nr_cpu_ids which
is incorrect if cpu_possible_map contains holes.  This causes percpu
code to access beyond allocated memories and vmalloc areas.  On a
sparc64 machine with cpus 0 and 2 (u60), this triggers the following
warning or fails boot.

This patch fixes generic percpu functions and sparc64
setup_per_cpu_areas() so that they handle sparse cpu_possible_map
properly.

Please note that on x86, cpu_possible_map() doesn't contain holes and
thus num_possible_cpus() == nr_cpu_ids and this patch doesn't cause
any behavior difference.

451d7400a3 sparc: Add CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support
All we need to do for CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG support is call
dma_debug_init() in DMA code common for SPARC32 and SPARC64.

Now SPARC32 uses two dma_map_ops structures for pci and sbus so
there is not much dma stuff for SPARC32 in kernel/dma.c.
kernel/ioport.c also includes dma stuff for SPARC32. So let's
put all the dma stuff for SPARC32 in kernel/ioport.c and make
kernel/dma.c common for SPARC32 and SPARC64.

of the homegrown mechnism.

SPARC32 has two dma_map_ops structures for pci and sbus

The global 'dma_ops' is set to sbus_dma_ops and get_dma_ops()
returns pci32_dma_ops for pci devices so we can use the
appropriate dma mapping operations.

47cab6a722 debug lockups: Improve lockup detection, fix generic arch fallback
As Andrew noted, my previous patch ("debug lockups: Improve lockup
detection") broke/removed SysRq-L support from architecture that do
not provide a __trigger_all_cpu_backtrace implementation.

Restore a fallback path and clean up the SysRq-L machinery a bit:

 - Rename the arch method to arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()

 - Simplify the define

 - Document the method a bit - in the hope of more architectures
   adding support for it.

[ The patch touches Sparc code for the rename. ]

1dacc76d00 net/compat/wext: send different messages to compat tasks
Wireless extensions have the unfortunate problem that events
are multicast netlink messages, and are not independent of
pointer size. Thus, currently 32-bit tasks on 64-bit platforms
cannot properly receive events and fail with all kinds of
strange problems, for instance wpa_supplicant never notices
disassociations, due to the way the 64-bit event looks (to a
32-bit process), the fact that the address is all zeroes is
lost, it thinks instead it is 00:00:00:00:01:00.

The same problem existed with the ioctls, until David Miller
fixed those some time ago in an heroic effort.

A different problem caused by this is that we cannot send the
ASSOCREQIE/ASSOCRESPIE events because sending them causes a
32-bit wpa_supplicant on a 64-bit system to overwrite its
internal information, which is worse than it not getting the
information at all -- so we currently resort to sending a
custom string event that it then parses. This, however, has a
severe size limitation we are frequently hitting with modern
access points; this limitation would can be lifted after this
patch by sending the correct binary, not custom, event.

A similar problem apparently happens for some other netlink
users on x86_64 with 32-bit tasks due to the alignment for
64-bit quantities.

In order to fix these problems, I have implemented a way to
send compat messages to tasks. When sending an event, we send
the non-compat event data together with a compat event data in
skb_shinfo(main_skb)->frag_list. Then, when the event is read
from the socket, the netlink code makes sure to pass out only
the skb that is compatible with the task. This approach was
suggested by David Miller, my original approach required
always sending two skbs but that had various small problems.

To determine whether compat is needed or not, I have used the
MSG_CMSG_COMPAT flag, and adjusted the call path for recv and
recvfrom to include it, even if those calls do not have a cmsg
parameter.

I have not solved one small part of the problem, and I don't
think it is necessary to: if a 32-bit application uses read()
rather than any form of recvmsg() it will still get the wrong
(64-bit) event. However, neither do applications actually do
this, nor would it be a regression.

023bf6f1b8 linker script: unify usage of discard definition
Discarded sections in different archs share some commonality but have
considerable differences.  This led to linker script for each arch
implementing its own /DISCARD/ definition, which makes maintaining
tedious and adding new entries error-prone.

This patch makes all linker scripts to move discard definitions to the
end of the linker script and use the common DISCARDS macro.  As ld
uses the first matching section definition, archs can include default
discarded sections by including them earlier in the linker script.

ia64 is notable because it first throws away some ia64 specific
subsections and then include the rest of the sections into the final
image, so those sections must be discarded before the inclusion.

defconfig compile tested for x86, x86-64, powerpc, powerpc64, ia64,
alpha, sparc, sparc64 and s390.  Michal Simek tested microblaze.

2f39e637ea percpu: allow non-linear / sparse cpu -> unit mapping
Currently cpu and unit are always identity mapped.  To allow more
efficient large page support on NUMA and lazy allocation for possible
but offline cpus, cpu -> unit mapping needs to be non-linear and/or
sparse.  This can be easily implemented by adding a cpu -> unit
mapping array and using it whenever looking up the matching unit for a
cpu.

The only unusal conversion is in pcpu_chunk_addr_search().  The passed
in address is unit0 based and unit0 might not be in use so it needs to
be converted to address of an in-use unit.  This is easily done by
adding the unit offset for the current processor.

ce3141a277 percpu: drop pcpu_chunk->page[]
percpu core doesn't need to tack all the allocated pages.  It needs to
know whether certain pages are populated and a way to reverse map
address to page when freeing.  This patch drops pcpu_chunk->page[] and
use populated bitmap and vmalloc_to_page() lookup instead.  Using
vmalloc_to_page() exclusively is also possible but complicates first
chunk handling, inflates cache footprint and prevents non-standard
memory allocation for percpu memory.

pcpu_chunk->page[] was used to track each page's allocation and
allowed asymmetric population which happens during failure path;
however, with single bitmap for all units, this is no longer possible.
Bite the bullet and rewrite (de)populate functions so that things are
done in clearly separated steps such that asymmetric population
doesn't happen.  This makes the (de)population process much more
modular and will also ease implementing non-standard memory usage in
the future (e.g. large pages).

This makes @get_page_fn parameter to pcpu_setup_first_chunk()
unnecessary.  The parameter is dropped and all first chunk helpers are
updated accordingly.  Please note that despite the volume most changes
to first chunk helpers are symbol renames for variables which don't
need to be referenced outside of the helper anymore.

This change reduces memory usage and cache footprint of pcpu_chunk.
Now only #unit_pages bits are necessary per chunk.

38a6be5254 percpu: simplify pcpu_setup_first_chunk()
Now that all first chunk allocator helpers allocate and map the first
chunk themselves, there's no need to have optional default alloc/map
in pcpu_setup_first_chunk().  Drop @populate_pte_fn and only leave
@dyn_size optional and make all other params mandatory.

This makes it much easier to follow what pcpu_setup_first_chunk() is
doing and what actual differences tweaking each parameter results in.

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)

There is still room for further code consolidation with some minor
refactoring.

Boot tested on sparc32 and compile tested on sparc64.

d69864158e sparc: remove dma-mapping_{32|64}.h
This modifies SPARC32 to use struct dma_map ops. It means that we can
remove dma-mapping_{32|64}.h.

797a756865 sparc: use dma_map_page instead of dma_map_single
This patch converts dma_map_single and dma_unmap_single to use
map_page and unmap_page respectively and removes unnecessary
map_single and unmap_single. map_page can be used to implement
map_single but the opposite is impossible. Having only dma_map_page in
struct dma_ops is enough.

280ff97494 sparc64: fix and optimize irq distribution
irq_choose_cpu() should compare the affinity mask against cpu_online_map
rather than CPU_MASK_ALL, since irq_select_affinity() sets the interrupt's
affinity mask to cpu_online_map "and" CPU_MASK_ALL (which ends up being
just cpu_online_map).  The mask comparison in irq_choose_cpu() will always
fail since the two masks are not the same.  So the CPU chosen is the first CPU
in the intersection of cpu_online_map and CPU_MASK_ALL, which is always CPU0.
That means all interrupts are reassigned to CPU0...

Distributing interrupts to CPUs in a linearly increasing round robin fashion
is not optimal for the UltraSPARC T1/T2.  Also, the irq_rover in
irq_choose_cpu() causes an interrupt to be assigned to a different
processor each time the interrupt is allocated and released.  This may lead
to an unbalanced distribution over time.

A static mapping of interrupts to processors is done to optimize and balance
interrupt distribution.  For the T1/T2, interrupts are spread to different
cores first, and then to strands within a core.

The following is some benchmarks showing the effects of interrupt
distribution on a T2.  The test was done with iperf using a pair of T5220
boxes, each with a 10GBe NIU (XAUI) connected back to back.

0c243ad81f sparc64: Only allocate per-cpu areas for possible cpus.
This gets us real close to the generic implementation of
setup_per_cpu_areas() except:

1) We store the per-cpu offset into the trap_block[], whereas
   the generic code has it's own static array.

2) We have to initialize the %g5 register to hold the boot cpu's
   per-cpu area offset.

3) The OBP/MDESC cpu info scan is performed at the end.

73fffc037e sparc64: Get rid of real_setup_per_cpu_areas().
Now that we defer the cpu_data() initializations to the end of per-cpu
setup, we can get rid of this local hack we had to setup the per-cpu
areas eary.

This is a necessary step in order to support HAVE_DYNAMIC_PER_CPU_AREA
since the per-cpu setup must run when page structs are available.
