Make sure dma_alloc_coherent allocates memory from the local node. This
is important on Cell where we avoid going through the slow cpu
interconnect.
Note: I could only test this patch on Cell, it should be verified on
some pseries machine by those that have the hardware.

On 64bit powerpc we can find out what node a pci bus hangs off, so
implement the topology.h macros that export this information.
For 32bit this seems a little more difficult, but I don't know of 32bit
powerpc NUMA machines either, so let's leave it out for now.

This patch attempts to handle RTAS "busy" return codes in a more simple
and consistent manner. Typical callers of RTAS shouldn't have to
manage wait times and delay calls.
This patch also changes the kernel to use msleep() rather than udelay()
when a runtime delay is necessary. This will avoid CPU soft lockups
for extended delay conditions.

My js20 appears to lack the ibm,#dma- properties, and boot fails with a

This adds a fallback to the "#address-cells" property in case the
"#ibm,dma-address-cells" property is missing. Tested on js20 and
power5 lpar.

Our MMU hash management code would not set the "C" bit (changed bit) in
the hardware PTE when updating a RO PTE into a RW PTE. That would cause
the hardware to possibly to a write back to the hash table to set it on
the first store access, which in addition to being a performance issue,
might also hit a bug when running with native hash management (non-HV)
as our code is specifically optimized for the case where no write back
happens.
Thus there is a very small therocial window were a hash PTE can become
corrupted if that HPTE has just been upgraded to read write, a store
access happens on it, and that races with another processor evicting
that same slot. Since eviction (caused by an almost full hash) is
extremely rare, the bug is very unlikely to happen fortunately.
This fixes by allowing the updating of the protection bits in the native
hash handling to also set (but not clear) the "C" bit, and, in order to
also improve performances in the general case, by always setting that
bit on newly inserted hash PTE so that writeback really never happens.

This patch cleans up some locking & error handling in the ppc vdso and
moves the vdso base pointer from the thread struct to the mm context
where it more logically belongs. It brings the powerpc implementation
closer to Ingo's new x86 one and also adds an arch_vma_name() function
allowing to print [vsdo] in /proc/<pid>/maps if Ingo's x86 vdso patch is
also applied.

I have tested PPC_PTRACE_GETREGS and PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS on umview.
I do not understand why historically these tags has been defined as
PPC_PTRACE_GETREGS and PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS instead of simply
PTRACE_[GS]ETREGS. The other "originality" is that the address must be
put into the "addr" field instead of the "data" field as stated in the

transaction within each such operation may involve multiple locking of AGF
buffer. While the freeing extent function has sorted the extents based on
AGF number before entering into transaction, however, when the file system
space is very limited, the allocation of space would try every AGF to get
space allocated, this could potentially cause out-of-order locking, thus
deadlock could happen. This fix mitigates the scarce space for allocation
by setting aside a few blocks without reservation, and avoid deadlock by
maintaining ascending order of AGF locking.
