The current PS3 gelic wireless driver has support for wireless
extensions. The original PS3 gelic wireless driver exposed a
dedicated API for a dedicated wpa_supplicant driver. This old
API could be enabled with CONFIG_GELIC_WIRELESS_OLD_PSK_INTERFACE,
however, as this is not being used by any distros, and it is being
removed from the driver and from wpa_supplicant.

The comments in arm_machine_restart() suggest that cpu_proc_fin()
will clean and disable cache and turn off interrupts. This does
not seem to be implemented for proc-v7.S, implement it the same
way as for proc-v6.S.
This also makes kexec work for v7. Note that a related TLB and
branch traget flush patch is also needed to avoid kexec
"crc error".
Note that there are still some issues that seem to be related
to L2 cache being on and causing occasional uncompress "crc error"
with kexec. Anyways, this gets kexec mostly working on V7 for now.

We can use logical flat mode if there are <= 8 logical cpu's
(irrespective of physical apic id values). This will enable simplified
and efficient IPI and device interrupt routing on such platforms.
This has been tested to work on both Intel and AMD platforms.
Exceptions like IBM summit platform which can't use logical flat mode
are addressed by using OEM platform checks.

Chris McDermott from IBM confirmed that hurricane chipset in IBM summit
platforms doesn't support logical flat mode. Irrespective of the other
things like apic_id's, total number of logical cpu's, Linux kernel
should default to physical mode for this system.
The 32-bit kernel does so using the OEM checks for the IBM summit
platform. Add a similar OEM platform check for the 64bit kernel too.
Otherwise the linux kernel boot can hang on this platform under certain
bios/platform settings.

That commit was needed earlier because system call restarting for

with NX. Since ab72b00734 ("ARM: Fix signal restart issues

executable stack anymore, we can re-enable NX support for kernels
with OABI (compat) support.

Because of the include of the decompress_inflate.c file from
boot/compress/misc.c, there are different flush() defines:
In file included from arch/arm/boot/compressed/misc.c:249:
arch/arm/boot/compressed/../../../../lib/decompress_inflate.c:138:29: error: macro "flush" passed 2 arguments, but takes just 0
Fix this by removing the define of flush() in misc.c for
CONFIG_DEBUG_ICEDCC as it's already defined in mach/uncompress.h,
and that is being included unconditionally.
Also use a static inline function instead of define
for mach-mxc and mach-gemini to avoid similar bug
for those platforms.

The m68knommu coldfire pit clocksource looks like it was incorrectly
marked as a continuous clocksource. Running with it marked as a
continuous clocksource could cause hangs when the system switches to
highres mode or enables nohz.
This patch removes the CLOCK_SOURCE_IS_CONTINUOUS flag on the coldfire pit
clocksource. This will disallow systems using this clocksource from
entering oneshot mode (disabling highres timers and nohz).

What it is: vhost net is a character device that can be used to reduce
the number of system calls involved in virtio networking.
Existing virtio net code is used in the guest without modification.
There's similarity with vringfd, with some differences and reduced scope
- uses eventfd for signalling
- structures can be moved around in memory at any time (good for
migration, bug work-arounds in userspace)
- write logging is supported (good for migration)
- support memory table and not just an offset (needed for kvm)
common virtio related code has been put in a separate file vhost.c and
can be made into a separate module if/when more backends appear. I used
Rusty's lguest.c as the source for developing this part : this supplied
me with witty comments I wouldn't be able to write myself.
What it is not: vhost net is not a bus, and not a generic new system
call. No assumptions are made on how guest performs hypercalls.
Userspace hypervisors are supported as well as kvm.
How it works: Basically, we connect virtio frontend (configured by
userspace) to a backend. The backend could be a network device, or a tap
device. Backend is also configured by userspace, including vlan/mac
etc.
Status: This works for me, and I haven't see any crashes.
Compared to userspace, people reported improved latency (as I save up to
4 system calls per packet), as well as better bandwidth and CPU
utilization.
Features that I plan to look at in the future:
- mergeable buffers
- zero copy
- scalability tuning: figure out the best threading model to use
Note on RCU usage (this is also documented in vhost.h, near
private_pointer which is the value protected by this variant of RCU):
what is happening is that the rcu_dereference() is being used in a
workqueue item. The role of rcu_read_lock() is taken on by the start of
execution of the workqueue item, of rcu_read_unlock() by the end of
execution of the workqueue item, and of synchronize_rcu() by
flush_workqueue()/flush_work(). In the future we might need to apply
some gcc attribute or sparse annotation to the function passed to
INIT_WORK(). Paul's ack below is for this RCU usage.

We noticed that recent kernels didn't boot on our 1GHz Canyonlands 460EX
boards anymore. As it seems, patch 8d165db1 [powerpc: Improve
decrementer accuracy] introduced this problem. The routine div_sc()
overflows with shift = 32 resulting in this incorrect setup:
time_init: decrementer frequency = 1000.000012 MHz
time_init: processor frequency = 1000.000012 MHz
clocksource: timebase mult[400000] shift[22] registered
clockevent: decrementer mult[33] shift[32] cpu[0]
This patch now introduces a local div_dc64() version of this function
so that this overflow doesn't happen anymore.
