This is a fix for a bug I see on my Toshiba laptop, where the ohci1394
controller gets initialized improperly. The patch adds two PCI fixups
to arch/i386/pci/fixup.c, one that happens early on to cache the value
of the PCI_CACHE_LINE_SIZE config register, and another that later
restores the value, along with a valid IRQ number and some BAR values.
I've tested it on my laptop, and it prevents me from running into what I
consider to be a major bug: IRQ 11 is disabled by the IRQ debug code,
causing my wireless to break.
Thanks to Rob for the original patch to ohci1394.c and Stefan for lots
of proofreading (and a last minute bug caught in review!) and additional
information collection. I think the DMI system list is correct, but we
may need to add some more PCI IDs to the PCI_FIXUP macros over time.

In PM v1, all devices were called at SUSPEND_DISABLE level. Then
all devices were called at SUSPEND_SAVE_STATE level, and finally
SUSPEND_POWER_DOWN level. However, with PM v2, to maintain
compatibility for platform devices, I arranged for the PM v2
suspend/resume callbacks to call the old PM v1 suspend/resume
callbacks three times with each level in order so that existing

we can remove it. Here's an (untested) patch to do exactly that.

In arch/ia64/kernel/ptrace.c there is a test for a peek or poke of a
register image (in register backing storage).
The test can be unnecessarily long (and occurs while holding the tasklist_lock).
Especially long on a large system with thousands of active tasks.
The ptrace caller (presumably a debugger) specifies the pid of
its target and an address to peek or poke. But the debugger could be
attached to several tasks.
The idea of find_thread_for_addr() is to find whether the target address
is in the RBS for any of those tasks.
Currently it searches the thread-list of the target pid. If that search
does not find a match, and the shared mm-struct's user count indicates
that there are other tasks sharing this address space (a rare occurrence),
a search is made of all the tasks in the system.
Another approach can drastically shorten this procedure.
It depends upon the fact that in order to peek or poke from/to any task,
the debugger must first attach to that task. And when it does, the
attached task is made a child of the debugger (is chained to its children list).
Therefore we can search just the debugger's children list.

flush_tlb_all() can be a scaling issue on large SGI Altix systems
since it uses the global call_lock and always executes on all cpus.
When a process enters flush_tlb_range() to purge TLBs for another
process, it is possible to avoid flush_tlb_all() and instead allow
sn2_global_tlb_purge() to purge TLBs only where necessary.
This patch modifies flush_tlb_range() so that this case can be handled
by platform TLB purge functions and updates ia64_global_tlb_purge()
accordingly. sn2_global_tlb_purge() now calculates the region register

Fix the alloc_slabmgmt panic
Hopefully this should also fix a lot of other intermittent kernel bugs.
The problem has been around since 2.6.9-rc2-pa6 when we allowed
floating point registers to be used in kernel code. The essence of
the problem is that gcc prefers to use floating point for integer
divides and multiples. Further, it can rely on the values in the no
clobber fp regs being correct across a function call. Unfortunately,
our task switch function only saves the integer no clobber registers,
not the fp ones, so if gcc makes a function call to any function in
the kernel which could sleep, the values it is relying on in any no
clobber floating point register may be lost. In the case of
alloc_slabmgmt, the value of the page offset is being stored in %fr12
across a call to kmem_getpages(), which sleeps if no pages are
available. Thus, the offset can be trashed and the slab code can end
up with a completely bogus address leading to corruption.
Kudos to Randolph who came up with the program to trip this problem at
will and thus allowed it to be tracked and fixed.
