ffab6cf44e palm_bk3710: fix IDECLK period calculation
The driver uses completely bogus rounding formula for calculating period from
the IDECLK frequency which gives one-off period values (e.g. 11 ns with 100 MHz
IDECLK) which in turn can lead to overclocked IDE transfer timings.  Actually,
rounding is just wrong in this case, so use a mere division for a safe result.

While at it, also:

- give 'ide_palm_clk' variable a more suitable name;

- get rid of the useless 'ideclkp' variable;

- drop the LISP stype 'p' postfix from the 'clkp' variable's name. :-)

a861beb140 ide: add __ide_default_irq() inline helper
Add __ide_default_irq() inline helper and use it instead of
ide_default_irq() in ide-probe.c and ns87415.c (all host drivers
except IDE PCI ones always setup hwif->irq so it is enough to
check only for I/O bases 0x1f0 and 0x170).

This fixes post-2.6.25 regression since ide_default_irq()
define could shadow ide_default_irq() inline.

86df864249 Correct hash flushing from huge_ptep_set_wrprotect()
As Andy Whitcroft recently pointed out, the current powerpc version of
huge_ptep_set_wrprotect() has a bug.  It just calls ptep_set_wrprotect()
which in turn calls pte_update() then hpte_need_flush() with the 'huge'
argument set to 0.  This will cause hpte_need_flush() to flush the wrong
hash entries (of any).  Andy's fix for this is already in the powerpc
tree as commit 016b33c495.

I have confirmed this is a real bug, not masked by some other
synchronization, with a new testcase for libhugetlbfs.  A process write
a (MAP_PRIVATE) hugepage mapping, fork(), then alter the mapping and
have the child incorrectly see the second write.

Therefore, this should be fixed for 2.6.26, and for the stable tree.
Here is a suitable patch for 2.6.26, which I think will also be suitable
for the stable tree (neither of the headers in question has been changed
much recently).

It is cut down slighlty from Andy's original version, in that it does
not include a 32-bit version of huge_ptep_set_wrprotect().  Currently,
hugepages are not supported on any 32-bit powerpc platform.  When they
are, a suitable 32-bit version can be added - the only 32-bit hardware
which supports hugepages does not use the conventional hashtable MMU and
so will have different needs anyway.

5dfcf14d5b x86: use FIRMWARE_MEMMAP on x86/E820
This patch uses the /sys/firmware/memmap interface provided in the last patch
on the x86 architecture when E820 is used. The patch copies the E820
memory map very early, and registers the E820 map afterwards via
firmware_map_add_early().

69ac9cd629 sysfs: add /sys/firmware/memmap
This patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS
(or Firmware) provided memory map. The tree looks like:

    /sys/firmware/memmap/0/start   (hex number)
                           end     (hex number)
                           type    (string)
    ...                 /1/start
                           end
                           type

With the following shell snippet one can print the memory map in the same form
the kernel prints itself when booting on x86 (the E820 map).

  --------- 8< --------------------------
    #!/bin/sh
    cd /sys/firmware/memmap
    for dir in * ; do
        start=$(cat $dir/start)
        end=$(cat $dir/end)
        type=$(cat $dir/type)
        printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type"
    done
  --------- >8 --------------------------

That patch only provides the needed interface:

 1. The sysfs interface.
 2. The structure and enumeration definition.
 3. The function firmware_map_add() and firmware_map_add_early()
    that should be called from architecture code (E820/EFI, for
    example) to add the contents to the interface.

If the kernel is compiled without CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP, the interface does
nothing without cluttering the architecture-specific code with #ifdef's.

The purpose of the new interface is kexec: While /proc/iomem represents
the *used* memory map (e.g. modified via kernel parameters like 'memmap'
and 'mem'), the /sys/firmware/memmap tree represents the unmodified memory
map provided via the firmware. So kexec can:

 - use the original memory map for rebooting,
 - use the /proc/iomem for setting up the ELF core headers for kdump
   case that should only represent the memory of the system.

The patch has been tested on i386 and x86_64.

081a5bcb39 [SCSI] mptspi: fix oops in mptspi_dv_renegotiate_work()
The problem here is that if the ioc faults too early in the bring up
sequence (as it usually does for an irq routing problem), ioc_reset gets
called before the scsi host is even allocated.  This causes an oops when
it later schedules a renegotiation.  Fix this by checking ioc->sh before
trying to renegotiate.

80fcc9e28c iwlwifi: remove input device and fix rfkill state
This patch fixes the iwlwifi rfkill. It removes the input device from iwl3945,
adds support for RFKILL_STATE_HARD_BLOCKED and calls rfkill_force_state() to
update the state rather than accessing it directly.
The calls to iwl|iwl3945_rfkill_set_hw_state() had to be moved because
rfkill_force_state() cannot be called from an atomic context.
Tested on iwl3945 and seems to work fine.

ef5e94af16 x86_32: remove __PAGE_KERNEL(_EXEC)
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

Older x86-32 processors do not support global mappings (PGD), so must
only use it if the processor supports it.

The _PAGE_KERNEL* flags always have _PAGE_KERNEL set, since logically
we always want it set.

This is OK even on processors which do not support PGD, since all
_PAGE flags are masked with __supported_pte_mask before being turned
into a real in-pagetable pte.  On 32-bit systems, __supported_pte_mask
is initialized to not contain _PAGE_GLOBAL, and it is then added if
the CPU is found to support it.

The x86-32 code used to use __PAGE_KERNEL/__PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC for this
purpose, but they're now redundant and can be removed.

068b453834 x86: fix documentation bug about relocatability
This patch fixes a small bug in documentation: x86_64 also has now
the ability to build a relocatable kernel.

32105f7fd8 x86: find offset for crashkernel reservation automatically
This patch removes the need of the crashkernel=...@offset parameter to define
a fixed offset for crashkernel reservation. That feature can be used together
with a relocatable kernel where the kexec-tools relocate the kernel and
get the actual offset from /proc/iomem.

The use case is a kernel where the .text+.data+.bss is after 16M physical
memory (debug kernel with lockdep on x86_64 can cause that) which caused a
major pain in autoconfiguration in our distribution.

Also, that patch unifies crashdump architectures a bit since IA64 has
that semantics from the very beginning of the kdump port.

6a2f47ca27 x86: add check for node passed to node_to_cpumask, v3
* When CONFIG_DEBUG_PER_CPU_MAPS is set, the node passed to
    node_to_cpumask and node_to_cpumask_ptr should be validated.
    If invalid, then a dump_stack is performed and a zero cpumask
    is returned.

v2: Slightly different version to remove a compiler warning.
v3: Redone to reflect moving setup.c -> setup_percpu.c

Phew.  OK, I've worked this out.  Short version is that's it's a false
alarm, and there was no real failure here.  Long version:

    * I changed the code to create the physical mapping pagetables to
      reuse any existing mapping rather than replace it.   Specifically,
      reusing an pud pointed to by the pgd caused this symptom to appear.
    * The specific PUD being reused is the one created statically in
      head_64.S, which creates an initial 1GB mapping.
    * That mapping doesn't have _PAGE_GLOBAL set on it, due to the
      inconsistency between __PAGE_* and PAGE_*.
    * The CPA test attempts to clear _PAGE_GLOBAL, and then checks to
      see that the resulting range is 1) shattered into 4k pages, and 2)
      has no _PAGE_GLOBAL.
    * However, since it didn't have _PAGE_GLOBAL on that range to start
      with, change_page_attr_clear() had nothing to do, and didn't
      bother shattering the range,
    * resulting in the reported messages

The simple fix is to set _PAGE_GLOBAL in level2_ident_pgt.

An additional fix to make CPA testing more robust by using some other
pagetable bit (one of the unused available-to-software ones).  This
would solve spurious CPA test warnings under Xen which uses _PAGE_GLOBAL
for its own purposes (ie, not under guest control).

Also, we should revisit the use of _PAGE_GLOBAL in asm-x86/pgtable.h,
and use it consistently, and drop MAKE_GLOBAL.  The first time I
proposed it it caused breakages in the very early CPA code; with luck
that's all fixed now.
