dd315df176 [PATCH] x86: Compress stack unwinder output
The unwinder has some extra newlines, which eat up loads of screen
space when it spews. (See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=137900
for a nasty example).

warning_symbol-> and warning-> already printk a newline, so don't add one
in the strings passed to them.

9b48341752 [PATCH] i386: fix buggy MTRR address checks
Fix checks that failed to realize that values are 4-kB-unit-sized (note the
format strings in this same diff context which *do* realize the unit size,
via appended "000"!).  Also fix an incorrect below-1MB area check (as
gathered from Jan Beulich's unapplied patch at
http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0411.1/1378.html ) Update
mtrr_add_page() docu to make 4-kB-sized calculation more obvious.

Given several further items mentioned in Jan's patch mail, all in all MTRR
code seems surprisingly buggy, for a surprisingly long period of time (many
years).  Further work/investigation would be useful.

TBD Note that my patch is pretty much UNTESTED, since I can only verify that it
TBD successfully boots my machine, but I cannot test against actual buggy
TBD hardware which would require these (formerly broken) checks.  Long -mm
TBD simmering would make sense, especially since these now-working checks might
TBD turn out to have adverse effects on unaffected hardware.

This reverts commit 281ea49b0c,
which broke ACPI Interrupt source overrides that move
the SCI from one IRQ in PIC mode to another in IOAPIC mode.

If the SCI shared an interrupt line with another device,
this would result in a "irq 18: nobody cared" type failure.

808dbbb6bb x86: be more careful when walking back the frame pointer chain
When showing the stack backtrace, make sure that we never accept not
only an unchanging frame pointer, but also a frame pointer that moves
back down the stack frame.  It must always grow up (toward older stack
frames).

I doubt this has triggered, but a subtly corrupt stack with extremely
unlucky contents could cause us to loop forever on a bogus endless frame
pointer chain.

This review was triggered by much worse problems happening in some of
the other stack unwinding code.

dc1829a4c3 [PATCH] i386/x86_64: ACPI cpu_idle_wait() fix
The scheduler on Andreas Friedrich's hyperthreading system stopped
working properly: the scheduler would never move tasks to another CPU!
The lask known working kernel was 2.6.8.

After a couple of attempts to corner the bug, the following smoking gun
was found:

  BIOS reported wrong ACPI idfor the processor
  CPU#1: set_cpus_allowed(), swapper:1, 3 -> 2
   [<c0103bbe>] show_trace_log_lvl+0x34/0x4a
   [<c0103ceb>] show_trace+0x2c/0x2e
   [<c01045f8>] dump_stack+0x2b/0x2d
   [<c0116a77>] set_cpus_allowed+0x52/0xec
   [<c0101d86>] cpu_idle_wait+0x2e/0x100
   [<c0259c57>] acpi_processor_power_exit+0x45/0x58
   [<c0259752>] acpi_processor_remove+0x46/0xea
   [<c025c6fb>] acpi_start_single_object+0x47/0x54
   [<c025cee5>] acpi_bus_register_driver+0xa4/0xd3

   [<c01004d7>] init+0x146/0x2fd
   [<c0103a87>] kernel_thread_helper+0x7/0x10

a quick look at cpu_idle_wait() shows how broken that code is
on i386: it changes the init task's affinity map but never
restores it ...

and because all userspace tasks get forked by init, they all
inherited that single-CPU affinity mask. x86_64 cloned this
bug too.

45c9953325 [PATCH] Use delayed disable mode of ioapic edge triggered interrupts
Komuro reports that ISA interrupts do not work after a disable_irq(),
causing some PCMCIA drivers to not work, with messages like

	eth0: Asix AX88190: io 0x300, irq 3, hw_addr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
	eth0: found link beat
	eth0: autonegotiation complete: 100baseT-FD selected
	eth0: interrupt(s) dropped!
	eth0: interrupt(s) dropped!
	eth0: interrupt(s) dropped!
	...

Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org> said:

  "Now, edge-triggered interrupts are a _lot_ harder to mask, because the
   Intel APIC is an unbelievable piece of sh*t, and has the edge-detect logic
   _before_ the mask logic, so if a edge happens _while_ the device is
   masked, you'll never ever see the edge ever again (unmasking will not
   cause a new edge, so you simply lost the interrupt).

   So when you "mask" an edge-triggered IRQ, you can't really mask it at all,
   because if you did that, you'd lose it forever if the IRQ comes in while
   you masked it. Instead, we're supposed to leave it active, and set a flag,
   and IF the IRQ comes in, we just remember it, and mask it at that point
   instead, and then on unmasking, we have to replay it by sending a
   self-IPI."

This trivial patch solves the problem.

Timer overrides are normally disabled on Nvidia board because

Unfortunately there are quite some Asus boards around that

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.

ec68307cc5 [PATCH] htirq: refactor so we only have one function that writes to the chip
This refactoring actually optimizes the code a little by caching the value
that we think the device is programmed with instead of reading it back from
the hardware.  Which simplifies the code a little and should speed things up a
bit.

This patch introduces the concept of a ht_irq_msg and modifies the
architecture read/write routines to update this code.

There is a minor consistency fix here as well as x86_64 forgot to initialize
the htirq as masked.

d654c673d6 [PATCH] Regression in 2.6.19-rc microcode driver
If the microcode driver is built in (rather than module) there are some,
ehm, interesting effects happening due to the new "call out to userspace"
behavior that is introduced..  and which runs too early.  The result is a
boot hang; which is really nasty.

The patch below is a minimally safe patch to fix this regression for 2.6.19
by just not requesting actual microcode updates during early boot.  (That
is a good idea in general anyway)

The "real" fix is a lot more complex given the entire cpu hotplug scenario
(during cpu hotplug you normally need to load the microcode as well); but
the interactions for that are just really messy at this point; this fix at
least makes it work and avoids a full detangle of hotplug.

d7a1944e8d [CPUFREQ] speedstep-centrino should ignore upper performance control bits
On some systems such as the IBM x3650 there are bits set in the
upper half of the control values provided by the _PSS object.
These bits are only relevant for cpufreq drivers that use IO ports
which are not currently supported by the speedstep-centrino driver.
The current MSR oriented code assumes that upper bits are not set
and thus fails to work correctly when they are.  e.g. the control
and status value equality check fails even though the ACPI spec
allows the inequality.

3e74341c7b [CPUFREQ] sc520_freq.c: ioremap balanced with iounmap
ioremap must be balanced by an iounmap and failing to do so can result
in a memory leak.

Tested (compilation only):
- using allmodconfig
- making sure the files are compiling without any warning/error due to
new changes

3f4a0b917c [PATCH] i386 Time: Avoid PIT SMP lockups
Avoid possible PIT livelock issues seen on SMP systems (and reported by
Andi), by not allowing it as a clocksource on SMP boxes.

However, since the PIT may no longer be present, we have to properly handle
the cases where SMP systems have TSC skew and fall back from the TSC.
Since the PIT isn't there, it would "fall back" to the TSC again.  So this
changes the jiffies rating to 1, and the TSC-bad rating value to 0.

Thus you will get the following behavior priority on i386 systems:

tsc		[if present & stable]
hpet		[if present]
cyclone		[if present]
acpi_pm		[if present]
pit		[if UP]
jiffies

Rather then the current more complicated:
tsc		[if present & stable]
hpet		[if present]
cyclone		[if present]
acpi_pm		[if present]
pit		[if cpus < 4]
tsc		[if present & unstable]
jiffies

dfde5d62ed [CPUFREQ][8/8] acpi-cpufreq: Add support for freq feedback from hardware
Enable ondemand governor and acpi-cpufreq to use IA32_APERF and IA32_MPERF MSR
to get active frequency feedback for the last sampling interval. This will
make ondemand take right frequency decisions when hardware coordination of
frequency is going on.

Without APERF/MPERF, ondemand can take wrong decision at times due
to underlying hardware coordination or TM2.
Example:
* CPU 0 and CPU 1 are hardware cooridnated.
* CPU 1 running at highest frequency.
* CPU 0 was running at highest freq. Now ondemand reduces it to
  some intermediate frequency based on utilization.
* Due to underlying hardware coordination with other CPU 1, CPU 0 continues to
  run at highest frequency (as long as other CPU is at highest).
* When ondemand samples CPU 0 again next time, without actual frequency
  feedback from APERF/MPERF, it will think that previous frequency change
  was successful and can go to wrong target frequency. This is because it
  thinks that utilization it has got this sampling interval is when running at
  intermediate frequency, rather than actual highest frequency.
