000725d56a ioatdma: Push pending transactions to hardware more frequently
Every 20 descriptors turns out to be to few append commands with
newer/faster CPUs.  Pushing every 4 still cuts down on MMIO writes to an
acceptable level without letting the DMA engine run out of work.

92504f79a7 IOATDMA: fix section mismatches
Rename struct pci_driver data so that false section mismatch warnings won't
be produced.

Sam, ISTM that depending on variable names is the weakest & worst part of
modpost section checking.  Should __init_refok work here?  I got build
errors when I tried to use it, probably because the struct pci_driver probe
and remove methods are not marked "__init_refok".

WARNING: drivers/dma/ioatdma.o(.data+0x10): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: (between 'ioat_pci_drv' and 'ioat_pci_tbl')
WARNING: drivers/dma/ioatdma.o(.data+0x14): Section mismatch: reference to .exit.text: (between 'ioat_pci_drv' and 'ioat_pci_tbl')

765e3d8a71 [PATCH] rm pointless dmaengine exports
This removes several pointless exports from drivers/dma/dmaengine.c; the
dma_async_memcpy_*() functions are inlined by <linux/dmaengine.h> so those
exports are inappropriate.

It also moves the existing EXPORT_SYMBOL declarations next to their functions,
so it's now trivial to confirm one-to-one correspondence between exports and
nonstatic symbols.

7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.
