As the procfs export of ATAGS is not meant as a stable, general purpose
ABI it shouldn't be an independent, general configuration option.
This patch make ATAGS_PROC depend on KEXEC

based on general objections from Roland McGrath:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/21/323
we'll let the BTS functionality cook some more and re-enable
it in v2.6.26. We'll leave the dead code around to help the
development of this code.

avoid over-eager large page splitup.
When the target area needs to be split or is split already (ioremap)
then the current code enforces the split of large mappings in the alias
regions even if we could avoid it.
Use a separate variable processed in the cpa_data structure to carry
the number of pages which have been processed instead of reusing the
numpages variable. This keeps numpages intact and gives the alias code
a chance to keep large mappings intact.

Priit Laes discovered that the sed command processing nm output was
sensitive to locale settings. This was addressed in commit
03994f01e8 by using [:alnum:] in place of
[a-zA-Z0-9].
But that solution too is locale-dependent and may not always match
the identifiers it needs to. The better fix is just to run sed et al
with a fixed locale setting in all builds.

Fix a kernel bug (vmware boot problem) reported by Tomasz Grobelny,
which occurs with certain .config variants and gccs.
The x86 TLS cleanup in commit efd1ca52d0
made the sys_set_thread_area and sys_get_thread_area functions ripe for
tail call optimization. If the compiler chooses to use it for them, it
can clobber the user trap frame because these are asmlinkage functions.

There is a potential race between flushes of the entire SLB in the MFC
and the point where new entries are being established. The problem is
that we might put a ESID entry into the MFC SLB when the VSID entry has
just been cleared by the global flush.
This can be circumvented by holding the register_lock throughout both
the flushing and the creation of SLB entries.

When we replace an SLB entry in the MFC after using up all the available
entries, there is a short window in which an incorrect entry is marked
as valid.
The problem is that the 'valid' bit is stored in the ESID, which is
always written after the VSID. Overwriting the VSID first will make the
original ESID entry point to the new VSID, which means that any
concurrent DMA accessing the old ESID ends up being redirected to the
new virtual address. A few cycles later, we write the new ESID and
everything is fine again.
That race can be closed by writing a zero entry to the ESID first, which
makes sure that the VSID is not accessed until we write the new ESID.
Note that we don't actually need to invalidate the SLB entry using the
invalidation register, which would also flush any ERAT entries for that
segment, because the segment translation does not become invalid but is
only removed from the SLB cache.

There is a small race between the context save procedure
and the SPU interrupt handling, where we expect all interrupt
processing to have finished after disabling them, while
an interrupt is still being processed on another CPU.
The obvious fix is to call synchronize_irq() after disabling
the interrupts at the start of the context save procedure
to make sure we never access the SPU any more during an
ongoing save or even after that.
Thanks to Benjamin Herrenschmidt for pointing this out.

Currently, we get the following output from sputrace:
[5.097935954] 1606: spufs_ps_nopfn__enter (thread = 1605, spu = -1)
[5.097958164] 1606: spufs_ps_nopfn__insert (thread = 1605, spu = 15)
[5.097973529] 1607: spufs_ps_nopfn__enter (thread = 1605, spu = -1)
[5.097989174] 1607: spufs_ps_nopfn__insert (thread = 1605, spu = 14)
Which leads me to believe that 160[67] is the current thread ID, and
1605 is the context backing the psmap.
However, the 'current' and 'owner' tids are reversed - the 'current'
tid is on the right. This change puts the current thread ID in the
left-hand column instead, and renames the right to 'ctxthread'.

Remove the circular buffering mechanism for exceptions. Instead, point RETX
at a safe location from which to fetch three NOPs.
This safe location is now in the fixed code area, and also used for certain
anomaly workarounds, to ensure that user space can find a valid ICPLB when
things are built with CONFIG_MPU.
Also, save I/DCPLB_FAULT_ADDRESS when lowering to level 5, since the hardware
reg is valid only at exception level.

Current link script won't define section data_l1.cacheline_aligned in

in kernel menuconfig, these data will be dropped and access to these
