In order for ntpd to correctly synchronize the clocks, the frequency of
the system clock must not be off by more than 500 ppm (or, put another
way, 1:2000), or ntpd will end up giving up on trying to synchronize
properly, and ends up reseting the clock in jumps instead.
The fast TSC PIT calibration sometimes failed this test - it was
assuming that the PIT reads always took about one microsecond each (2us
for the two reads to get a 16-bit timer), and that calibrating TSC to
the PIT over 15ms should thus be sufficient to get much closer than
500ppm (max 2us error on both sides giving 4us over 15ms: a 270 ppm
error value).
However, that assumption does not always hold: apparently some hardware
is either very much slower at reading the PIT registers, or there was
other noise causing at least one machine to get 700+ ppm errors.
So instead of using a fixed 15ms timing loop, this changes the fast PIT
calibration to read the TSC delta over the individual PIT timer reads,
and use the result to calculate the error bars on the PIT read timing
properly. We then successfully calibrate the TSC only if the maximum
error bars fall below 500ppm.
In the process, we also relax the timing to allow up to 25ms for the
calibration, although it can happen much faster depending on hardware.

During bootup, when we reprogram the PIT (programmable interval timer)
to start counting down from 0xffff in order to use it for the fast TSC
calibration, we should also make sure to delay a bit afterwards to allow
the PIT hardware to actually start counting with the new value.
That will happens at the next CLK pulse (1.193182 MHz), so the easiest
way to do that is to just wait at least one microsecond after
programming the new PIT counter value. We do that by just reading the
counter value back once - which will take about 2us on PC hardware.

This follows the ARM change from Aaro Koskinen:
When unmapping N pages (e.g. shared memory) the amount of TLB
flushes done can be (N*PAGE_SIZE/ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE)*N although it
should be N at maximum. With PREEMPT kernel ZAP_BLOCK_SIZE is 8
pages, so there is a noticeable performance penalty when
unmapping a large VMA and the system is spending its time in
flush_tlb_range().
The problem is that tlb_end_vma() is always flushing the full VMA
range. The subrange that needs to be flushed can be calculated by
tlb_remove_tlb_entry(). This approach was suggested by Hugh
Dickins, and is also used by other arches.
The speed increase is roughly 3x for 8M mappings and for larger
mappings even more.
Bits and peices are taken from the ARM patch as well as the existing
arch/um implementation that is quite similar.
The end result is a significant reduction in both partial and full TLB
flushes initiated through flush_tlb_range().
At the same time, the nommu implementation was broken, had a superfluous
cache flush, and subsequently would have triggered a BUG_ON() if a
code-path had triggered it. Tidy this up for correctness and provide a
nopped-out implementation there.

While harmless, PTEA has different semantics on these parts, and is only
used in extended TLB mode. Kill off the legacy support.
Signed-off-by: Paul Mundt <lethal@linux-sh.org>
This adds support for extended ASIDs (up to 16-bits) on newer SH-X3 cores
that implement the PTAEX register and respective functionality. Presently
only the 65nm SH7786 (90nm only supports legacy 8-bit ASIDs).
The main change is in how the PTE is written out when loading the entry
in to the TLB, as well as in how the TLB entry is selectively flushed.
While SH-X2 extended mode splits out the memory-mapped U and I-TLB data
arrays for extra bits, extended ASID mode splits out the address arrays.
While we don't use the memory-mapped data array access, the address
array accesses are necessary for selective TLB flushes, so these are
implemented newly and replace the generic SH-4 implementation.
With this, TLB flushes in switch_mm() are almost non-existent on newer
parts.

This is for Red Hat bug 490026: EXT4 panic, list corruption in
ext4_mb_new_inode_pa
ext4_lock_group(sb, group) is supposed to protect this list for
each group, and a common code flow to remove an album is like
this:
ext4_get_group_no_and_offset(sb, pa->pa_pstart, &grp, NULL);
ext4_lock_group(sb, grp);
list_del(&pa->pa_group_list);
ext4_unlock_group(sb, grp);
so it's critical that we get the right group number back for
this prealloc context, to lock the right group (the one
associated with this pa) and prevent concurrent list manipulation.
however, ext4_mb_put_pa() passes in (pa->pa_pstart - 1) with a
comment, "-1 is to protect from crossing allocation group".
This makes sense for the group_pa, where pa_pstart is advanced
by the length which has been used (in ext4_mb_release_context()),
and when the entire length has been used, pa_pstart has been
advanced to the first block of the next group.
However, for inode_pa, pa_pstart is never advanced; it's just
set once to the first block in the group and not moved after
that. So in this case, if we subtract one in ext4_mb_put_pa(),
we are actually locking the *previous* group, and opening the
race with the other threads which do not subtract off the extra
block.
