This is in preparation for the addition of MPC512x
PSC support. The main difference in the 512x is
in the fifo registers.

This adds the hugepagesz boot-time parameter for ppc64. It lets one
pick the size for huge pages. The choices available are 64K and 16M
when the base page size is 4k. It defaults to 16M (previously the
only only choice) if nothing or an invalid choice is specified.
Tested 64K huge pages successfully with the libhugetlbfs 1.2.

xlate_iomm_address() really wants the ds_addr to pass to the HV, so store
that value (instead of the BAR number) when we allocate the device bars.
This is not a fast path, so we can look up the device_node property
there instead of using the bussubno field of the pci_dn.
The other user of iseries_ds_addr() was already scanning the device tree,
so looking up a property will not slow it down any more.

Similar to of_find_compatible_node(), of_find_matching_node() and
for_each_matching_node() allow you to iterate over the device tree
looking for specific nodes, except that they take of_device_id
tables instead of strings.
This also moves of_match_node() from driver/of/device.c to
driver/of/base.c to colocate it with the of_find_matching_node which
depends on it.

By default the OpenPIC on PWRficient will bias to one core (since that
will improve changes of the other core being able to stay idle/powered
down). However, this conflicts with most irq load balancing schemes,
since setting an interrupt to be delivered to either core doesn't really
result in the load being shared. It also doesn't work well with the
soft irq disable feature of PPC, since EE will stay on until the first
interrupt is taken while soft disabled.
Set the gconf0 config bit that enables even distribution of interrupts
among the two cores.

Some PWRficient-based boards have a NMI button that's wired up to a GPIO
as interrupt source. By configuring the openpic accordingly, these get
delivered as a machine check with high priority, instead of as an external
interrupt.
The device tree contains a property "nmi-source" in the openpic node
for these systems, and it's the (hwirq) source for the input.
Also, for these interrupts, the IACK is read from another register than
the regular (MCACK instead), but they are EOI'd as usual. So implement
said function for the mpic driver.
Finally, move a couple of external function defines to include/ instead
of local under sysdev. Being able to mask/unmask and eoi directly saves
us from setting up a dummy irq handler that will never be called.

Right now TLB entry 0 ist used as UART0 mapping for the early debug
output (via CONFIG_SERIAL_TEXT_DEBUG). This causes problems when many
TLB's get used upon Linux bootup (e.g. while PCIe scanning behind
bridges and/or switches on 440SPe platforms). This will overwrite the
TLB 0 entry and further debug output's may crash/hang the system.
This patch moves the early debug UART0 TLB entry from 0 to 62 as done
in arch/powerpc. This way it is in the "pinned" area and will not get
overwritten. Also the arch/ppc/mm/44x_mmu.c code is now synced with the
newer code from arch/powerpc.

Accessing indirect DCRs is done via a pair of address/data DCRs.
Such accesses are thus inherently racy, vs. interrupts, preemption
and possibly SMP if 4xx SMP cores are ever used.
This updates the mfdcri/mtdcri macros in dcr-native.h (which were
so far unused) to use a spinlock.
In addition, add some common definitions to a new dcr-regs.h file.

This adds a cputable function pointer for the CPU-side machine
check handling. The semantic is still the same as the old one,
the one in ppc_md. overrides the one in cputable, though
ultimately we'll want to change that so the CPU gets first.
This removes CONFIG_440A which was a problem for multiplatform
kernels and instead fixes up the IVOR at runtime from a setup_cpu
function. The "A" version of the machine check also tweaks the
regs->trap value to differenciate the 2 versions at the C level.

With ATAPI transfer chunk size properly programmed, libata PIO HSM
should be able to handle full spurious data chunks. Also, it's a good
idea to suppress trailing data warning for misc ATAPI commands as
there can be many of them per command - for example, if the chunk size
is 16 and the drive tries to transfer 510 bytes, there can be 31
trailing data messages.
This patch makes the following updates to libata ATAPI PIO HSM
implementation.
* Make it drain full spurious chunks.
* Suppress trailing data warning message for misc commands.
* Put limit on how many bytes can be drained.
* If odd, round up consumed bytes and the number of bytes to be
drained. This gets the number of bytes to drain right for drivers
which do 16bit PIO.
This patch is partial backport of improve-ATAPI-data-xfer patchset
pending for #upstream.

during resume
On certain implementations, _GTF evaluation depends on preceding _STM
and both can be pretty picky about the configuration. Using _GTM
result cached during controller initialization satisfies the most
neurotic _STM implementation. However, libata evaluates _GTF after
reset during device configuration and the hardware state can be
different from what _GTF expects and can cause evaluation failure.
This patch adds dev->gtf_cache and updates ata_dev_get_GTF() such that
it uses the cached value if available. Cache is cleared with a call
to ata_acpi_clear_gtf().
Because for SATA ACPI nodes _GTF must be evaluated after _SDD which
can't be done till IDENTIFY is complete, _GTF caching from
ata_acpi_on_resume() is used only for IDE ACPI nodes.

_GTM fetches currently configured transfer mode while _STM configures
controller according to _GTM parameter and prepares transfer mode
configuration TFs for _GTF. In many cases _GTM and _STM
implementations are quite brittle and can't cope with configuration
changed by libata.
libata does not depend on ATA ACPI to configure devices. The only
reason libata performs _GTM and _STM are to make _GTF evaluation
succeed and libata also doesn't care about how _GTF TFs configure
transfer mode. It overrides that configuration anyway, so from
libata's POV, it doesn't matter what value is feeded to _STM as long
as evaluation succeeds for _STM and following _GTF.
This patch adds dev->__acpi_init_gtm and store initial _GTM values on
host initialization before modified by reset and mode configuration.
If the field is valid, ata_acpi_init_gtm() returns pointer to the
saved _GTM structure; otherwise, NULL.
This saved value is used for _STM during resume and peek at
BIOS/firmware programmed initial timing for later use. The accessor
is there to make building w/o ACPI easy as dev->__acpi_init doesn't
exist if ACPI is not enabled.
On driver detach, the initial BIOS configuration is restored by
executing _STM with the initial _GTM values such that the next driver
can also use the initial BIOS configured values.

This reverts commit 54f9f80d6543fb7b157d3b11e2e7911dc1379790 ("hugetlb:
Add hugetlb_dynamic_pool sysctl")
Given the new sysctl nr_overcommit_hugepages, the boolean dynamic pool
sysctl is not needed, as its semantics can be expressed by 0 in the
overcommit sysctl (no dynamic pool) and non-0 in the overcommit sysctl
(pool enabled).
(Needed in 2.6.24 since it reverts a post-2.6.23 userspace-visible change)

hugetlb: introduce nr_overcommit_hugepages sysctl
While examining the code to support /proc/sys/vm/hugetlb_dynamic_pool, I
became convinced that having a boolean sysctl was insufficient:
1) To support per-node control of hugepages, I have previously submitted
patches to add a sysfs attribute related to nr_hugepages. However, with
a boolean global value and per-mount quota enforcement constraining the
dynamic pool, adding corresponding control of the dynamic pool on a
per-node basis seems inconsistent to me.
2) Administration of the hugetlb dynamic pool with multiple hugetlbfs
mount points is, arguably, more arduous than it needs to be. Each quota
would need to be set separately, and the sum would need to be monitored.
To ease the administration, and to help make the way for per-node
control of the static & dynamic hugepage pool, I added a separate
sysctl, nr_overcommit_hugepages. This value serves as a high watermark
for the overall hugepage pool, while nr_hugepages serves as a low
watermark. The boolean sysctl can then be removed, as the condition
nr_overcommit_hugepages > 0
indicates the same administrative setting as
hugetlb_dynamic_pool == 1
Quotas still serve as local enforcement of the size of the pool on a
per-mount basis.
A few caveats:
1) There is a race whereby the global surplus huge page counter is
incremented before a hugepage has allocated. Another process could then
try grow the pool, and fail to convert a surplus huge page to a normal
huge page and instead allocate a fresh huge page. I believe this is
benign, as no memory is leaked (the actual pages are still tracked
correctly) and the counters won't go out of sync.
2) Shrinking the static pool while a surplus is in effect will allow the
number of surplus huge pages to exceed the overcommit value. As long as
this condition holds, however, no more surplus huge pages will be
allowed on the system until one of the two sysctls are increased
sufficiently, or the surplus huge pages go out of use and are freed.
Successfully tested on x86_64 with the current libhugetlbfs snapshot,
modified to use the new sysctl.

These types define the size of data read from /dev/apm_bios. They should
not be hidden behind #ifdef __KERNEL__.
This is killing my xserver compile, apm_event_t is used in the xserver
source.

This fixes some of the alpha-specific build problems, except a) modpost
warning about COMMON symbol "saved_config" and b) nasty final link
failure with gcc-4.x, -Os and scsi-disk driver configured built-in
(due to jump table in .rodata referencing discarded .exit.text).
- build failure with gcc-4.2.x: fix up casts in cia_io* routines to avoid
warnings ('discards qualifiers from pointer target type'), which are
failures, thanks to -Werror;
- modpost warnings: add missing __init qualifier for titan and marvel;
for non-generic build, move machine vectors from .data to .data.init.refok
section;
- unbreak CPU-specific optimization: rearrange cpuflags-y assignments
so that extended -mcpu value (ev56, pca56, ev67) overrides basic
one (ev5, ev6) and not vice versa.
