On pSeries, the hypervisor doesn't let us map in the eHEA ethernet
adapter using 64k pages, and thus the ehea driver will fail if 64k
pages are configured. This works around the problem by always
using 4k pages for ioremap on pSeries (but not on other platforms).
A better fix would be to check whether the partition could ever
have an eHEA adapter, and only force 4k pages if it could, but this
will do for 2.6.25.
This is based on an earlier patch by Tony Breeds.

x86: reserve dma32 early for gart
The patch has a dependency on bootmem modifications which are not .25
material that late in the -rc cycle. The problem which is addressed by
the patch is limited to machines with 256G and more memory booted with
NUMA disabled. This is not a .25 regression and the audience which is
affected by this problem is very limited, so it's safer to do the
revert than pulling in intrusive bootmem changes right now.

Currently kernel images are limited to 8MB in size, and this causes
problems especially when enabling features that take up a lot of
kernel image space such as lockdep.
The code now will align the kernel image size up to 4MB and map that
many locked TLB entries. So, the only practical limitation is the
number of available locked TLB entries which is 16 on Cheetah and 64
on pre-Cheetah sparc64 cpus. Niagara cpus don't actually have hw
locked TLB entry support. Rather, the hypervisor transparently
provides support for "locked" TLB entries since it runs with physical
addressing and does the initial TLB miss processing.
Fully utilizing this change requires some help from SILO, a patch for
which will be submitted to the maintainer. Essentially, SILO will
only currently map up to 8MB for the kernel image and that needs to be
increased.
Note that neither this patch nor the SILO bits will help with network
booting. The openfirmware code will only map up to a certain amount
of kernel image during a network boot and there isn't much we can to
about that other than to implemented a layered network booting
facility. Solaris has this, and calls it "wanboot" and we may
implement something similar at some point.

quicklists cause a serious memory leak on 32-bit x86,
as documented at:
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9991
the reason is that the quicklist pool is a special-purpose
cache that grows out of proportion. It is not accounted for
anywhere and users have no way to even realize that it's
the quicklists that are causing RAM usage spikes. It was
supposed to be a relatively small pool, but as demonstrated
by KOSAKI Motohiro, they can grow as large as:
Quicklists: 1194304 kB
given how much trouble this code has caused historically,
and given that Andrew objected to its introduction on x86
(years ago), the best option at this point is to remove them.

The syscall restart behavior is lost, a regression from a native 32-bit
kernel and from 64-bit tasks' behavior.
This patch fixes the problem by doing sign-extension where it matters.
For orig_ax, the only time the value should be -1 but winds up as
0x0ffffffff is via a 32-bit ptrace call. So the patch changes ptrace to
sign-extend the 32-bit orig_eax value when it's stored; it doesn't
change the checks on orig_ax, though it uses the new current_syscall()
inline to better document the subtle importance of the used of
signedness there.
The ax value is stored a lot of ways and it seems hard to get them all
sign-extended at their origins. So for that, we use the
current_syscall_ret() to sign-extend it only for 32-bit tasks at the
time of the -ERESTART* comparisons.

At present, we can hit the BUG_ON in __spu_update_sched_info by reading
the regs file of a context between two calls to spu_run. The
spu_release_saved called by spufs_regs_read() is resulting in the (now
non-runnable) context being placed back on the run queue, so the next
call to spu_run ends up in the bug condition.
This change uses the SPU_SCHED_SPU_RUN flag to only reschedule a context
if it's still in spu_run().

I figured out another ACPI related regression today.
randconfig testing triggered an early boot-time hang on a laptop of mine
(32-bit x86, config attached) - the screen was scrolling ACPI AML
exceptions [with no serial port and no early debugging available].
v2.6.24 works fine on that laptop with the same .config, so after a few
hours of bisection (had to restart it 3 times - other regressions
interacted), it honed in on this commit:

| acpi: fix acpi_os_read_pci_configuration() misuse of raw_pci_read()
reverting this commit ontop of -rc5 gave a correctly booting kernel.
But this commit fixes a real bug so the real question is, why did it
break the bootup?
After quite some head-scratching, the following change stood out:
- pci_id->bus = tu8;
+ pci_id->bus = val;
pci_id->bus is defined as u16:
struct acpi_pci_id {
u16 segment;
u16 bus;
...
and 'tu8' changed from u8 to u32. So previously we'd unconditionally
mask the return value of acpi_os_read_pci_configuration()
(raw_pci_read()) to 8 bits, but now we just trust whatever comes back
from the PCI access routines and only crop it to 16 bits.
But if the high 8 bits of that result contains any noise then we'll
write that into ACPI's PCI ID descriptor and confuse the heck out of the
rest of ACPI.
So lets check the PCI-BIOS code on that theory. We have this codepath
for 8-bit accesses (arch/x86/pci/pcbios.c:pci_bios_read()):
switch (len) {
case 1:
__asm__("lcall *(%%esi); cld\n\t"
"jc 1f\n\t"
"xor %%ah, %%ah\n"
"1:"
: "=c" (*value),
"=a" (result)
: "1" (PCIBIOS_READ_CONFIG_BYTE),
"b" (bx),
"D" ((long)reg),
"S" (&pci_indirect));
Aha! The "=a" output constraint puts the full 32 bits of EAX into
*value. But if the BIOS's routines set any of the high bits to nonzero,
we'll return a value with more set in it than intended.
The other, more common PCI access methods (v1 and v2 PCI reads) clear
out the high bits already, for example pci_conf1_read() does:
switch (len) {
case 1:
*value = inb(0xCFC + (reg & 3));
which explicitly converts the return byte up to 32 bits and zero-extends
it.
So zero-extending the result in the PCI-BIOS read routine fixes the
regression on my laptop. ( It might fix some other long-standing issues
we had with PCI-BIOS during the past decade ... ) Both 8-bit and 16-bit
accesses were buggy.

Ahmed managed to crash the Host in release_pgd(), which cannot be a Guest
bug, and indeed it wasn't.
The bug was that handing a 0 as the address of the toplevel page table
being manipulated can cause the lookup code in find_pgdir() to return
an uninitialized cache entry (we shadow up to 4 top level page tables
for each Guest).
Commit 37cc8d7f96 introduced this
behaviour in the Guest, uncovering the bug.
The patch which he submitted (which removed the /4 from the index
calculation) simply ensured that these high-indexed entries hit the
early exit path of guest_set_pmd(). But you get lots of segfaults in
guest userspace as the PMDs aren't being updated.

Now the TSC code handles a zero return from calculate_cpu_khz(),
lguest can simply pass through the value it gets from the Host: if
non-zero, all the normal TSC code applies.
Otherwise (or if the Host really doesn't support TSC), the clocksource
code will fall back to the slower but reasonable lguest clock.

Not all e300 cores support the performance monitors, and the ones
that don't will be confused by the mf/mtpmr instructions. This
allows the support to be optional, so the 8349 can turn it off
while the 8379 can turn it on. Sadly, those aren't config options,
so it will be left to the defconfigs and the users to make that
determination.

This makes 64-bit ptrace calls setting the 64-bit orig_ax field for a
32-bit task sign-extend the low 32 bits up to 64. This matches what a
64-bit debugger expects when tracing a 32-bit task.
This follows on my "x86_64 ia32 syscall restart fix". This didn't
matter until that was fixed.
The debugger ignores or zeros the high half of every register slot it
sets (including the orig_rax pseudo-register) uniformly. It expects
that the setting of the low 32 bits always has the same meaning as a
32-bit debugger setting those same 32 bits with native 32-bit
facilities.
This never arose before because the syscall restart check never
matched any -ERESTART* values due to lack of sign extension. Before
that fix, even 32-bit ptrace setting orig_eax to -1 failed to trigger
the restart check anyway. So this was never noticed as a regression
of 64-bit debuggers vs 32-bit debuggers on the same 64-bit kernel.

The new x86 setup code (4fd06960f1) broke booting on an old P3/500MHz
with an onboard Voodoo3 of mine. After debugging it, it turned out
to be caused by the fact that the vesa probing now asks for VBE2 data.
Disassembing the video BIOS shows that it overflows the vesa_general_info
structure when VBE2 data is requested because the source addresses for the
information strings which get strcpy'ed to the buffer lie outside the 32K
BIOS code (and hence contain long sequences of 0xff's).
