Ensure that no SMI interrupts occur between the read of the HPET & TSC
in the clock calibration loop.
I noticed that a 2.66GHz system incorrectly detected the processor
clock speed about 1/7 of the time:
time.c: Detected 2660.005 MHz processor. (most of the time)
time.c: Detected 2988.203 MHz processor. (sometime)
The problem is caused by an SMI interrupt occuring in hpet_calibrate_tsc()
between the read of the HPET & TSC. Prior to switching the BIOS into
ACPI mode, it appears that every 27msec an SMI interrupt occurs. The
SMI interrupt takes 4.8 msec to process.
Note: On my test system, TICK_MIN had to be >380. I picked 5000
to minimize risk of having a value that is too small for other
platforms.

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'apic_default' (at offset 0xc058b6e4) and 'interrupt'
o One of the possible options is to put special case check in MODPOST to
not emit warnings for this case but I think it is not a very good option
in terms of maintenance.
o Another option is to make probe() function non __init. Anyway this function
is really small so not freeing this memory after init is not a big deal.
Secondly, from a programming perspective, probably genapic should not
provide pointers to functions which have been freed as genapic is non
__init and is used even after initialization is complete.

o Misc smpboot/cpu hotplug path cleanups. I did those to supress the
warnings generated by MODPOST. These warnings are visible only
if CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y.
o CONFIG_RELOCATABLE compiles the kernel with --emit-relocs option. This
option retains relocation information in vmlinux file and MODPOST
is quick to spit out "Section mismatch" warnings.
o This patch fixes some of those warnings. Many of the functions in
smpboot case are __devinit type and they in turn accesses text/data which
if of type __cpuinit. Now if CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n
then we end up in cases where a function in .text segment is calling
another function in .init.text segment and MODPOST emits warning.

o It also fixes the issues where CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y and start_secondary()
is calling smp_callin() which in-turn calls synchronize_tsc_ap() which is
of type __init. This should have meant broken CPU hotplug.

The problem was introduced in 2.6.18.3 with the casting of some
36bit-defines (PCI memory) in au1000.h to resource_size_t which may be
u32 or u64 depending on the experimental CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT.
With unset CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT, the pci-memory cannot be accessed
because the ioremap in arch/mips/au1000/common/pci.c already used the
truncated addresses.
With set CONFIG_RESOURCES_64BIT, things get even worse, because PCI-scan
aborts, due to resource conflict: request_resource() in arch/mips/pci/pci.c
fails because the maximum iomem-address is 0xffffffff (32bit) but the
pci-memory-start-address is 0x440000000 (36bit).
To get pci working again, I propose the following patch:
1. remove the resource_size_t-casting from au1000.h again
2. make the casting in arch/mips/au1000/common/pci.c (it's allowed and
necessary here. The 36bit-handling will be done in __fixup_bigphys_addr).
With this patch pci works again like in 2.6.18.2, the gcc-compile warnings
in pci.c are gone and it doesn't depend on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL.

Since commit 98e238cd42 in Linux 2.6.19,
"ieee1394: sbp2: don't prefer MODE SENSE 10", some FireWire DVD-ROMs and
DVD-RWs were mistaken as CD-ROM because sr_mod now sent MODE SENSE 6.
The MMC command set includes only MODE SENSE 10.
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7800
This fix lets sbp2 switch scsi_device.use_10_for_rw on for MMC LUs.

sbp2 transport driver, and an according patch will follow for a next

Here is a patch for ehca to use proper flag, ie. GFP_ATOMIC
resp. GFP_KERNEL, when calling get_zeroed_page() to prevent "Bug:
scheduling while atomic...". This error does not cause a kernel panic
but makes ipoib un-usable afterwards. It is reproducible on
2.6.20-rc4 if one does ifconfig down during a flood ping test. I have
not observed this error in earlier releases incl. 2.6.20-rc1.
This error occurs when a qp event/irq is received and ehca event
handler allocates a control block/page to obtain HCA error data block.
Use of GFP_ATOMIC when in interrupt context prevents this issue.
