e6617c6ec2 sparc64: Kill spurious NMI watchdog triggers by increasing limit to 30 seconds.
This is a compromise and a temporary workaround for bootup NMI
watchdog triggers some people see with qla2xxx devices present.

This happens when, for example:

CPU 0 is in the driver init and looping submitting mailbox commands to
load the firmware, then waiting for completion.

CPU 1 is receiving the device interrupts.  CPU 1 is where the NMI
watchdog triggers.

CPU 0 is submitting mailbox commands fast enough that by the time CPU
1 returns from the device interrupt handler, a new one is pending.
This sequence runs for more than 5 seconds.

The problematic case is CPU 1's timer interrupt running when the
barrage of device interrupts begin.  Then we have:

	timer interrupt
	return for softirq checking
	pending, thus enable interrupts

		 qla2xxx interrupt
		 return
		 qla2xxx interrupt
		 return
		 ... 5+ seconds pass
		 final qla2xxx interrupt for fw load
		 return

	run timer softirq
	return

At some point in the multi-second qla2xxx interrupt storm we trigger
the NMI watchdog on CPU 1 from the NMI interrupt handler.

The timer softirq, once we get back to running it, is smart enough to
run the timer work enough times to make up for the missed timer
interrupts.

However, the NMI watchdogs (both x86 and sparc) use the timer
interrupt count to notice the cpu is wedged.  But in the above
scenerio we'll receive only one such timer interrupt even if we last
all the way back to running the timer softirq.

The default watchdog trigger point is only 5 seconds, which is pretty
low (the softwatchdog triggers at 60 seconds).  So increase it to 30
seconds for now.

d8ed1d43e1 sparc64: Validate linear D-TLB misses.
When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any
virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses.  But with kgdb, kernel
address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary
crap.

So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory
that actually exists.

In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap
into the kernel image.  And in order to make that less expensive we
make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is
decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit
physical address space.  We can do this because bit 41 indicates
"I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges.

The result of this is that:

1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size

2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap

We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated
once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have
crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such.

If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal
inside of the cpu.  So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu
will be out of trap levels and enter RED state.

To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check
to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set.  We
could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an
unnecessary extra memory reference.

On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations
into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB
misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks
in the TLB miss path.

a9919646d1 sparc32: Kill trap table freeing code.
Normally, srmmu uses different trap table register values to allow
determination of the cpu we're on.  All of the trap tables have
identical content, they just sit at different offsets from the first
trap table, and the offset shifted down and masked out determines
the cpu we are on.

The code tries to free them up when they aren't actually used
(don't have all 4 cpus, we're on sun4d, etc.) but that causes
problems.

For one thing it triggers false positives in the DMA debugging
code.  And fixing that up while preserving this relative offset
thing isn't trivial.

So just kill the freeing code, it costs us at most 3 pages, big
deal...

e2c6cbd9ac sparc: sys32.S incorrect compat-layer splice() system call
I think arch/sparc/kernel/sys32.S has an incorrect splice definition:

SIGN2(sys32_splice, sys_splice, %o0, %o1)

The splice() prototype looks like :

       long splice(int fd_in, loff_t *off_in, int fd_out,
                   loff_t *off_out, size_t len, unsigned int flags);

So I think we should have :

SIGN2(sys32_splice, sys_splice, %o0, %o2)

bootup for UP builds because the cpu_data() initialization only

Fix this up by calling the setups directly from init_64.c when

e4c9dd0fba kmap_types: make most arches use generic header file
Convert most arches to use asm-generic/kmap_types.h.

Move the KM_FENCE_ macro additions into asm-generic/kmap_types.h,
controlled by __WITH_KM_FENCE from each arch's kmap_types.h file.

Would be nice to be able to add custom KM_types per arch, but I don't yet
see a nice, clean way to do that.

Built on x86_64, i386, mips, sparc, alpha(tonyb), powerpc(tonyb), and
68k(tonyb).

Note: avr32 should be able to remove KM_PTE2 (since it's not used) and
then just use the generic kmap_types.h file.  Get avr32 maintainer
approval.

6ac5c61082 sparc: replace uses of CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR
CPU_MASK_ALL is the (deprecated) "all bits set" cpumask, defined as so:

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL (cpumask_t) { { ... } }

Taking the address of such a temporary is questionable at best,
unfortunately 321a8e9d (cpumask: add CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR macro) added
CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR:

	#define CPU_MASK_ALL_PTR (&CPU_MASK_ALL)

Which formalizes this practice.  One day gcc could bite us over this
usage (though we seem to have gotten away with it so far).

280ff97494 sparc64: fix and optimize irq distribution
irq_choose_cpu() should compare the affinity mask against cpu_online_map
rather than CPU_MASK_ALL, since irq_select_affinity() sets the interrupt's
affinity mask to cpu_online_map "and" CPU_MASK_ALL (which ends up being
just cpu_online_map).  The mask comparison in irq_choose_cpu() will always
fail since the two masks are not the same.  So the CPU chosen is the first CPU
in the intersection of cpu_online_map and CPU_MASK_ALL, which is always CPU0.
That means all interrupts are reassigned to CPU0...

Distributing interrupts to CPUs in a linearly increasing round robin fashion
is not optimal for the UltraSPARC T1/T2.  Also, the irq_rover in
irq_choose_cpu() causes an interrupt to be assigned to a different
processor each time the interrupt is allocated and released.  This may lead
to an unbalanced distribution over time.

A static mapping of interrupts to processors is done to optimize and balance
interrupt distribution.  For the T1/T2, interrupts are spread to different
cores first, and then to strands within a core.

The following is some benchmarks showing the effects of interrupt
distribution on a T2.  The test was done with iperf using a pair of T5220
boxes, each with a 10GBe NIU (XAUI) connected back to back.

5a5488d3bb sparc64: Store per-cpu offset in trap_block[]
Surprisingly this actually makes LOAD_PER_CPU_BASE() a little
more efficient.

19f0fa3fb3 sparc64: Move trap_block[] definitions into a new header file.
Later we're going to want to get at these definitions from
asm/percpu.h and that's not possible via cpudata.h because
of the set of dependencies the non-trap_block[] stuff has.

557fe0e884 sparc64: Reclaim trap_block[]->hdesc
This really isn't necessary at all, a local variable suits the
job just fine.

This frees up 8 bytes in the trap_block[] that we can use later
to store the per-cpu base addresses.

5933048c69 module: cleanup FIXME comments about trimming exception table entries.
Everyone cut and paste this comment from my original one.  We now do
it generically, so cut the comments.

ad6561dffa module: trim exception table on init free.
It's theoretically possible that there are exception table entries
which point into the (freed) init text of modules.  These could cause
future problems if other modules get loaded into that memory and cause
an exception as we'd see the wrong fixup.  The only case I know of is
kvm-intel.ko (when CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=n).

Amerigo fixed this long-standing FIXME in the x86 version, but this
patch is more general.

This implements trim_init_extable(); most archs are simple since they
use the standard lib/extable.c sort code.  Alpha and IA64 use relative
addresses in their fixups, so thier trimming is a slight variation.

Sparc32 is unique; it doesn't seem to define ARCH_HAS_SORT_EXTABLE,
yet it defines its own sort_extable() which overrides the one in lib.
It doesn't sort, so we have to mark deleted entries instead of
actually trimming them.

5b17e1cd89 asm-generic: rename page.h and uaccess.h
The current asm-generic/page.h only contains the get_order
function, and asm-generic/uaccess.h only implements
unaligned accesses. This renames the file to getorder.h
and uaccess-unaligned.h to make room for new page.h
and uaccess.h file that will be usable by all simple
(e.g. nommu) architectures.
