77ab6db0a1 KVM: VMX: Reinject real mode exception
As we execute real mode guests in VM86 mode, exception have to be
reinjected appropriately when the guest triggered them. For this purpose
the patch adopts the real-mode injection pattern used in vmx_inject_irq
to vmx_queue_exception, additionally taking care that the IP is set
correctly for #BP exceptions. Furthermore it extends
handle_rmode_exception to reinject all those exceptions that can be
raised in real mode.

This fixes the execution of himem.exe from FreeDOS and also makes its
debug.com work properly.

Note that guest debugging in real mode is broken now. This has to be
fixed by the scheduled debugging infrastructure rework (will be done
once base patches for QEMU have been accepted).

60bd83a125 KVM: VMX: Remove redundant check in handle_rmode_exception
Since checking for vcpu->arch.rmode.active is already done whenever we

f7d9238f5d KVM: VMX: Move interrupt post-processing to vmx_complete_interrupts()
Instead of looking at failed injections in the vm entry path, move
processing to the exit path in vmx_complete_interrupts().  This simplifes
the logic and removes any state that is hidden in vmx registers.

35920a3569 KVM: VMX: Fix pending exception processing
The vmx code assumes that IDT-Vectoring can only be set when an exception
is injected due to the exception in question.  That's not true, however:
if the exception is injected correctly, and later another exception occurs
but its delivery is blocked due to a fault, then we will incorrectly assume
the first exception was not delivered.

Fix by unconditionally dequeuing the pending exception, and requeuing it
(or the second exception) if we see it in the IDT-Vectoring field.

668f612fa0 KVM: VMX: Move nmi injection failure processing to vm exit path
Instead of processing nmi injection failure in the vm entry path, move
it to the vm exit path (vm_complete_interrupts()).  This separates nmi
injection from nmi post-processing, and moves the nmi state from the VT
state into vcpu state (new variable nmi_injected specifying an injection
in progress).

4233df6b74 ath9k/mac80211: disallow fragmentation in ath9k, report to userspace
As I've reported, ath9k currently fails utterly when fragmentation
is enabled. This makes ath9k "support" hardware fragmentation by
not supporting fragmentation at all to avoid the double-free issue.
The patch also changes mac80211 to report errors from the driver
operation to userspace.

That hack in ath9k should be removed once the rate control algorithm
it has is fixed, and we can at that time consider removing the hw
fragmentation support entirely since it's not used by any driver.

72f22b1eb6 rtc-cmos: look for PNP RTC first, then for platform RTC
We shouldn't rely on "pnp_platform_devices" to tell us whether there
is a PNP RTC device.

I introduced "pnp_platform_devices", but I think it was a mistake.
All it tells us is whether we found any PNPBIOS or PNPACPI devices.
Many machines have some PNP devices, but do not describe the RTC
via PNP.  On those machines, we need to do the platform driver probe
to find the RTC.

We should just register the PNP driver and see whether it claims anything.
If we don't find a PNP RTC, fall back to the platform driver probe.

This (in conjunction with the arch/x86/kernel/rtc.c patch to add
a platform RTC device when PNP doesn't have one) should resolve
these issues:

758a7f7bb8 x86: register a platform RTC device if PNP doesn't describe it
Most if not all x86 platforms have an RTC device, but sometimes the RTC
is not exposed as a PNP0b00/PNP0b01/PNP0b02 device in PNPBIOS or ACPI:

    http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11580
    https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=451188

It's best if we can discover the RTC via PNP because then we know
which flavor of device it is, where it lives, and which IRQ it uses.

But if we can't, we should register a platform device using the
compiled-in RTC_PORT/RTC_IRQ resource assumptions.

011935a0a7 NFS: Fix a resolution problem with nfs_inode->cache_change_attribute
The cache_change_attribute is used to decide whether or not a directory has
changed, in which case we may need to look it up again. Again, the use of
'jiffies' leads to an issue of resolution.

Once again, the fix is to change nfs_inode->cache_change_attribute, and
just make it a simple counter.

4704f0e274 NFS: Fix the resolution problem with nfs_inode_attrs_need_update()
It appears that 'jiffies' timestamps do not have high enough resolution for
nfs_inode_attrs_need_update(). One problem is that a GETATTR can be
launched within < 1 jiffy of the last operation that updated the attribute.
Another problem is that RPC calls can take < 1 jiffy to execute.

We can fix this by switching the variables to use a simple global counter
that gets incremented every time we start another GETATTR call.

ee673eaa72 powerpc: Fix CHRP PCI config access for indirect_pci
Recently, indirect_pci was changed to test if the bus number requested
is the one hanging straight off the PHB, then it substitutes the bus
number with another one contained in a new "self_busno" field of the
pci_controller structure.

However, this breaks CHRP which didn't initialize this new field, and
which relies on having the right bus number passed to the hardware.

This fixes it by initializing this variable properly for all CHRP bridges

22007a165d powerpc/chrp: Fix detection of Python PCI host bridge on IBM CHRPs
The detection of the IBM "Python" PCI host bridge on IBM CHRP
machines such as old RS6000 was broken when we changed
of_device_is_compatible() from strncasecmp to strcasecmp (dropped
the "n" variant) due to the way IBM encodes the chip version.

We fix that by instead doing a match on the model property like
we do for others bridges in that file. It should be good enough
for those machines. If yours is still broken, let me know.
