When we get an EEH error we just print a backtrace with dump_stack
which is rather cryptic. We really should print something before
spewing out the backtrace.
Also switch from dump_stack to WARN so we get more information about
the fail - what modules were loaded, what process was running etc.
This was useful information when debugging a recent EEH subsystem bug.
The standard WARN output should also get picked up by monitoring
tools like kerneloops.
The register dump is of questionable value here but I figured it was
better to use something standard and not roll my own.

Remove CONFIG_POWER4_ONLY, the option is badly named and only does two
things:
- It wraps the MMU segment table code. With feature fixups there is
little downside to compiling this in.
- It uses the newer mtocrf instruction in various assembly functions.
Instead of making this a compile option just do it at runtime via

This causes i2c-powermac to register i2c devices exposed in the
device-tree, enabling new-style probing of devices.
Note that we prefix the IDs with "MAC," in order to prevent the
generic drivers from matching. This is done on purpose as we only
want drivers specifically tested/designed to operate on powermacs
to match.
This removes the special case we had for the AMS driver, and updates
the driver's match table instead.

Add two optimisations to enable_kernel_altivec:
- enable_kernel_altivec has already determined if we need to
save the previous task's state but we call giveup_altivec
in both cases, requiring an extra branch in giveup_altivec. Create
giveup_altivec_notask which only turns on the VMX bit in the
MSR.
- We write the VMX MSR bit each time we call enable_kernel_altivec
even it was already set. Check the bit and branch out if we have
already set it. The classic case for this is vectored IO
where we have to copy multiple buffers to or from userspace.
The following testcase was used to confirm this patch improves
performance:
http://ozlabs.org/~anton/junkcode/copy_to_user.c
Since the current breakpoint for using VMX in copy_tofrom_user is
4096 bytes, I'm using buffers of 4096 + 1 cacheline (4224) bytes.
A benchmark of 16 entry readvs (-s 16):

Pull build fixes for less mainstream architectures from Paul Gortmaker:
"These are fixes for frv(1), blackfin(2), powerpc(1) and xtensa(4).
Fortunately the touches are nearly all specific to files just used by
the arch in question. The two touches to shared/common files
[kernel/irq/debug.h and drivers/pci/Makefile] are trivial to assess as
no risk to anyone.
Half of them relate to xtensa directly. It was only when I fixed the
last xtensa issue that I realized that the arch has been broken for a
significant time, and isn't a specific v3.4 regression. So if you
wanted, we could leave xtensa lying bleeding in the street for a
couple more weeks and queue those for 3.5. But given they are no risk
to anyone outside of xtensa, I figured to just leave them in.
If you are OK with taking the xtensa fixes, then please pull to get:
- one last implicit include uncovered by system.h that is in a file
specific to just one powerpc defconfig. (I'd sync'd with BenH).
- fix an oversight in the PCI makefile where shared code wasn't being
compiled for ARCH=frv
- fix a missing include for GPIO in blackfin framebuffer.
- audit and tag endif in blackfin ezkit board file, in order to find
and fix the misplaced endif masking a block of code.
- fix irq/debug.h choice of temporary macro names to be more internal
so they don't conflict with names used by xtensa.
- fix a reference to an undeclared local var in xtensa's signal.c
- fix an implicit bug.h usage in xtensa's asm/io.h uncovered by my
removing bug.h from kernel.h
- fix xtensa to properly indicate it is using asm-generic/hardirq.h
in order to resolve the link error - undefined ack_bad_irq
The xtensa still fails final link as my latest binutils does something
evil when ld forward-relocates unlikely() blocks, but in theory people

If the interrupt and the timeout happen roughly at the same
time, we can get into a situation where the timer function
is run while the interrupt has already been processed. In
this case, the timer function might end up doing an add_timer
on an already pending timer, causing a BUG_ON() to trigger.
Instead, just skip the whole timeout operation if we see that
the timer is pending. The spinlock ensures that the only way
that happens is if we already started a new operation and thus
the timeout can be ignored.

The problem was reported by Anton Blanchard. While EEH error
happened to the PCI device without the corresponding device
driver, kernel crash was seen. Eventually, I successfully
reproduced the problem on Firebird-L machine with utility
"errinjct". Initially, the device driver for Emulex ethernet
MAC has been disabled from .config and force data parity on
the Emulex ethernet MAC with help of "errinjct". Eventually,
I saw the kernel crash after issueing couple of "lspci -v"
command.
The root cause behind is that the PCI device, including the
reference to the corresponding eeh device, will be removed
from the system while EEH does recovery. Afterwards, the
PCI device will be probed again and added into the system
accordingly. So it's not safe to retrieve the eeh device from
the corresponding PCI device after the PCI device has been removed
and not added again.
The patch fixes the issue and retrieve the eeh device from OF node
instead of PCI device after the PCI device has been removed.

Commit 46d026ac ("powerpc/85xx: consolidate of_platform_bus_probe calls")
replaced platform-specific of_device_id tables with a single function
that probes the most of the busses in 85xx device trees. If a specific
platform needed additional busses probed, then it could call
of_platform_bus_probe() again. Typically, the additional platform-specific
busses are children of existing busses that have already been probed.
of_platform_bus_probe() does not handle those child busses automatically.
Unfortunately, this doesn't actually work. The second (platform-specific)
call to of_platform_bus_probe() never finds any of the busses it's asked
to find.
To remedy this, the platform-specific of_device_id tables are eliminated,
and their entries are merged into mpc85xx_common_ids[], so that all busses
are probed at once.

the maximum NOMAP allocation can be set per NOMAP irq_domain.
There is exactly one user of irq_virq_count in-tree right now: PS3.
Also, irq_virq_count is only useful for the NOMAP mapping. So,
instead of having a single global irq_virq_count values, this change
drops it entirely and added a max_irq argument to irq_domain_add_nomap().
That makes it a property of an individual nomap irq domain instead of
a global system settting.

commit a546498f3b
introduced a regression on 32-bit when irq tracing
is enabled by exposing an old bug in our irq tracing
code for exception entry.
The code would save and restore some GPRs around the
calls to the C lockdep code, however, it tries to be
too smart for its own good and restores some of the
GPRs from the exception frame (as saved there on
exception entry).
However, for page faults, we do replace those GPRs with
arguments to do_page_fault before we call transfer_to_handler
and so restoring from the exception frame is plain wrong in
this case.
This was fine as long as we didn't touch the interrupt state
when taking page fault, but when I started doing it, it would
trigger the lockdep calls and the bug.
This fixes it by cleaning up that code a bit. It did create
a small stack frame for the sake of backtraces, so let's
make it a bit bigger and use it to save and restore the
stuff we care about.

"Short summary for the whole series:
A few limitations have been identified in the current dma-mapping
design and its implementations for various architectures. There exist
more than one function for allocating and freeing the buffers:
currently these 3 are used dma_{alloc, free}_coherent,
dma_{alloc,free}_writecombine, dma_{alloc,free}_noncoherent.
For most of the systems these calls are almost equivalent and can be
interchanged. For others, especially the truly non-coherent ones
(like ARM), the difference can be easily noticed in overall driver
performance. Sadly not all architectures provide implementations for
all of them, so the drivers might need to be adapted and cannot be
easily shared between different architectures. The provided patches
unify all these functions and hide the differences under the already
existing dma attributes concept. The thread with more references is
available here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-sh/msg09777.html
These patches are also a prerequisite for unifying DMA-mapping
implementation on ARM architecture with the common one provided by
dma_map_ops structure and extending it with IOMMU support. More
information is available in the following thread:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.cross-arch/12819
More works on dma-mapping framework are planned, especially in the
area of buffer sharing and managing the shared mappings (together with
the recently introduced dma_buf interface: commit d15bd7ee44
"dma-buf: Introduce dma buffer sharing mechanism").
The patches in the current set introduce a new alloc/free methods
(with support for memory attributes) in dma_map_ops structure, which
will later replace dma_alloc_coherent and dma_alloc_writecombine
functions."
