Additional testing uncovered a situation where the MCA recovery code could
hang due to a race condition.
According to the SAL spec, SAL sends a rendezvous interrupt to all but the first
CPU that goes into MCA. This includes other CPUs that go into MCA at the same
time. Those other CPUs will go into the linux MCA handler (rather than the
slave loop) with the rendezvous interrupt pending. When all the CPUs have
completed MCA processing and the last monarch completes, freeing all the CPUs,
the CPUs with the pended rendezvous interrupt then go into the
ia64_mca_rendez_int_handler(). In ia64_mca_rendez_int_handler() the CPUs
get marked as rendezvoused, but then leave the handler (due to no MCA).
That leaves the CPUs marked as rendezvoused _before_ the next MCA event.
When the next MCA hits, the monarch will mistakenly believe that all the CPUs
are rendezvoused when they are not, opening up a window where a CPU can get
stuck in the slave loop.
This patch avoids leaving CPUs marked as rendezvoused when they are not.

While testing the MCA recovery code, noticed that some machines would have a
five second delay rendezvousing cpus. What was happening is that
ia64_wait_for_slaves() would check to see if all the slave CPUs had
rendezvoused. If any had not, it would wait 1 millisecond then check again.
If any CPUs had still not rendezvoused, it would wait 5 seconds before
checking again.
On some configs the rendezvous takes more than 1 millisecond, causing the code
to wait the full 5 seconds, even though the last CPU rendezvoused after only
a few milliseconds.
The fix is to check every 1 millisecond to see if all the cpus have
rendezvoused. After 5 seconds the code concludes the CPUs will never
rendezvous (same as before).
The MCA code is, by definition, not performance critical, but a needless
delay of 5 seconds is senseless. The 5 seconds also adds up quickly
when running the error injection code in a loop.
This patch both simplifies the code and removes the needless delay.

This driver for HPQ5001 devices installs a global ACPI OpRegion handler.
AML methods can use this OpRegion to call native firmware entry points.
ACPI does not define a mechanism for AML methods to call native firmware
interfaces such as PAL or SAL. This OpRegion handler adds such a mechanism.
After the handler is installed, an AML method can call native firmware by
storing the arguments and firmware entry point to specific offsets in the
OpRegion. When AML reads the "return value" offset from the OpRegion, this
handler loads up the arguments, makes the firmware call, and returns the
result.

* palinfo.c:
palinfo_cpu_notifier is a CPU hotplug notifier_block, and can be
marked __cpuinitdata, and the callback function palinfo_cpu_callback()
itself can be marked __cpuinit. create_palinfo_proc_entries() is only
called from __cpuinit callback or general __init code, therefore a
candidate for __cpuinit itself. remove_palinfo_proc_entries() is only
called from __cpuinit callback or general __exit code, therefore a
candidate for __cpuexit.
* salinfo.c:
The CPU hotplug notifier_block can be __cpuinitdata. The callback
salinfo_cpu_callback() is incorrectly marked __devinit -- it must
be __cpuinit instead.
* topology.c:
cache_sysfs_init() is only called at device_initcall() time so marking
it as __cpuinit is wrong and wasteful. It should be unconditionally
__init. Also cleanup reference to hotplug notifier callback function
from this function and replace with cache_add_dev(), which could also
enable us to use other tricks to replace __cpuinit{data} annotations,
as recently discussed on this list.
cache_shared_cpu_map_setup() is only ever called from __cpuinit-marked
functions hence both its definitions (SMP or !SMP) are candidates for
__cpuinit itself. Also all_cpu_cache_info can be __cpuinitdata because
only referenced from __cpuinit code.

Currently find_legacy_serial_ports() can find no serial ports on the
OPB with flattened device tree. Thus no legacy boot console can be
initialized. Just the early udbg console works, which is initialized
with udbg_init_44x_as1 on the UART's physical address specified in
kernel config. This happens because we look for ns16750 serial
devices only and expect opb node to have a device type property. This
patch makes it look for ns16550-compatible devices and use
of_device_is_compatible() for opb in case device type is not
specified.

This makes the kernel use 1TB segments for all kernel mappings and for
user addresses of 1TB and above, on machines which support them
(currently POWER5+, POWER6 and PA6T).
We detect that the machine supports 1TB segments by looking at the
ibm,processor-segment-sizes property in the device tree.
We don't currently use 1TB segments for user addresses < 1T, since
that would effectively prevent 32-bit processes from using huge pages
unless we also had a way to revert to using 256MB segments. That
would be possible but would involve extra complications (such as
keeping track of which segment size was used when HPTEs were inserted)
and is not addressed here.
Parts of this patch were originally written by Ben Herrenschmidt.

-msym32 and previously the strategy to tell the compiler to generate
64-bit code but the assembler to put it into 32-bit ELF was initially
a hack to get around the lack of proper 64-bit binutils support and
later turned into a neat optimization with significant code size
savings. But it's really just an optimization so there is nothing
wrong with just dropping the option (and whatever else goes along with
it, I forgot all the nasty details) on the floor if due to a vintage
compiler it can't be suported.
