This is the central patch of a cleanup series. In most cases there is no good
reason why someone would want to use a dentry for itself. This series reflects
that fact and embeds a struct path into nameidata.
Together with the other patches of this series
- it enforced the correct order of getting/releasing the reference count on
<dentry,vfsmount> pairs
- it prepares the VFS for stacking support since it is essential to have a
struct path in every place where the stack can be traversed
- it reduces the overall code size:

This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.
This patch:
Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past. This is to avoid conflicts.
Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

NR_OPEN (historically set to 1024*1024) actually forbids processes to open
more than 1024*1024 handles.
Unfortunatly some production servers hit the not so 'ridiculously high

Changing NR_OPEN is not considered safe because of vmalloc space potential

This patch introduces a new sysctl (/proc/sys/fs/nr_open) wich defaults to
1024*1024, so that admins can decide to change this limit if their workload

This is the new timerfd API as it is implemented by the following patch:
int timerfd_create(int clockid, int flags);
int timerfd_settime(int ufd, int flags,
const struct itimerspec *utmr,
struct itimerspec *otmr);
int timerfd_gettime(int ufd, struct itimerspec *otmr);
The timerfd_create() API creates an un-programmed timerfd fd. The "clockid"
parameter can be either CLOCK_MONOTONIC or CLOCK_REALTIME.
The timerfd_settime() API give new settings by the timerfd fd, by optionally
retrieving the previous expiration time (in case the "otmr" parameter is not
NULL).
The time value specified in "utmr" is absolute, if the TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME bit
is set in the "flags" parameter. Otherwise it's a relative time.
The timerfd_gettime() API returns the next expiration time of the timer, or
{0, 0} if the timerfd has not been set yet.
Like the previous timerfd API implementation, read(2) and poll(2) are
supported (with the same interface). Here's a simple test program I used to
exercise the new timerfd APIs:

This complements the generic R4000/R4400 errata workaround code and adds
bits for the daddiu problem. In most places it just modifies handwritten
assembly code so that the assembler is allowed to use a temporary register
as daddiu may now be treated as a macro that expands to a sequence of li
and daddu. It is the AT register or, where AT is unavailable or used
explicitly for another purpose, an explicitly-named register is selected,
using the .set at=<reg> feature added recently to gas. This feature is
only used if CONFIG_CPU_DADDI_WORKAROUNDS has been set, so if the
workaround remains disabled, the required version of binutils stays
unchanged.
Similarly, daddiu instructions put in branch delay slots in noreorder
fragments are now taken out of them and the assembler is allowed to
reorder them itself as possible (which it does making the whole idea of
scheduling them into delay slots manually questionable).
Also in the very few places where such a simple conversion was not
possible, a handcoded longer sequence is implemented.
Other than that there are changes to code responsible for building the
TLB fault and page clear/copy handlers to avoid daddiu as appropriate.
These are only effective if the erratum is verified to be present at the
run time.
Finally there is a trivial update to __delay(), because it uses daddiu in
a branch delay slot.

This is the gereric part of R4000/R4400 errata workarounds. They include
compiler and assembler support as well as some source code modifications
to address the problems with some combinations of multiply/divide+shift
instructions as well as the daddi and daddiu instructions.
Changes included are as follows:
1. New Kconfig options to select workarounds by platforms as necessary.
2. Arch top-level Makefile to pass necessary options to the compiler; also
incompatible configurations are detected (-mno-sym32 unsupported as
horribly intrusive for little gain).
3. Bug detection updated and shuffled -- the multiply/divide+shift problem
is lethal enough that if not worked around it makes the kernel crash in
time_init() because of a division by zero; the daddiu erratum might
also trigger early potentially, though I have not observed it. On the
other hand the daddi detection code requires the exception subsystem to
have been initialised (and is there mainly for information).
4. r4k_daddiu_bug() added so that the existence of the erratum can be
queried by code at the run time as necessary; useful for generated code
like TLB fault and copy/clear page handlers.
5. __udelay() updated as it uses multiplication in inline assembly.
Note that -mdaddi requires modified toolchain (which has been maintained
by myself and available from my site for ~4years now -- versions covered
are GCC 2.95.4 - 4.1.2 and binutils from 2.13 onwards). The -mfix-r4000
and -mfix-r4400 have been standard for a while though.

Replace all lock_cpu_hotplug/unlock_cpu_hotplug from the kernel and use
get_online_cpus and put_online_cpus instead as it highlights the
refcount semantics in these operations.
The new API guarantees protection against the cpu-hotplug operation, but
it doesn't guarantee serialized access to any of the local data
structures. Hence the changes needs to be reviewed.
In case of pseries_add_processor/pseries_remove_processor, use
cpu_maps_update_begin()/cpu_maps_update_done() as we're modifying the
cpu_present_map there.

The __weak definition of plat_time_init was only ever meant to be a
migration helper to keep platforms that don't have a plat_time_init
compiling. A few greps says that all platforms now supply their own
plat_time_init() so the weak definition is no longer needed. So I
instead delete it.

Sibyte SOCs only have 32-bit PCI. Due to the sparse use of the address
space only the first 1GB of memory is mapped at physical addresses
below 1GB. If a system has more than 1GB of memory 32-bit DMA will
not be able to reach all of it.
For now this patch is good enough to keep Sibyte users happy but it seems
eventually something like swiotlb will be needed for Sibyte.

The R4000 and R4400 have an errata where if the cp0 count register is read
in the exact moment when it matches the compare register no interrupt will
be generated.
This bug may be triggered if the cp0 count register is being used as
clocksource and the compare interrupt as clockevent. So a simple
workaround is to avoid using the compare for both facilities on the
affected CPUs.
This is different from the workaround suggested in the old errata documents;
at some opportunity probably the official version should be implemented
and tested. Another thing to find out is which processor versions
exactly are affected. I only have errata documents upto R4400 V3.0
available so for the moment the code treats all R4000 and R4400 as broken.
This is potencially a problem for some machines that have no other decent
clocksource available; this workaround will cause them to fall back to
another clocksource, worst case the "jiffies" source.
This matters to any sort of device that is wired to one of the CPU
interrupt pins on an SMP system. Typically the scenario is most easily
triggered with the count/compare timer interrupt where the same interrupt
number and thus irq_desc is used on each processor.
CPU A CPU B
do_IRQ()
generic_handle_irq()
handle_level_irq()
spin_lock(desc_lock)
set IRQ_INPROGRESS
spin_unlock(desc_lock)
do_IRQ()
generic_handle_irq()
handle_level_irq()
spin_lock(desc_lock)
IRQ_INPROGRESS set => bail out
spin_lock(desc_lock)
clear IRQ_INPROGRESS
spin_unlock(desc_lock)
In case of the cp0 compare interrupt this means the interrupt will be
acked and not handled or re-armed on CPU b, so there won't be any timer
interrupt until the count register wraps around.
With kernels 2.6.20 ... 2.6.23 we usually were lucky that things were just
working right on VSMP because the count registers are synchronized on
bootup so it takes something that disables interrupts for a long time on
one processor to trigger this one.
For scenarios where an interrupt is multicasted or broadcasted over several
CPUs the existing code was safe and the fix will break it. There is no
way to know in the interrupt controller code because it is abstracted from
the platform code. I think we do not have such a setup currently, so this
should be ok.

We have no guarantee by the generic time code that the timer is stopped
when the ->next_event method is called. Modifying the Timer Initial Count
register while the timer is enabled has UNPREDICTABLE effect according to
the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User Manual. So stop the timer before

For the old minimum of a single tick a value of zero would be programmed
into the init value register which in the BCM1250/BCM1125/BCM1125H User
Manual in the Timer Special Cases section is documented to have
UNPREDICTABLE effect.
Observable sympthoms of this bug were hangs of several seconds on the
console during bootup and later if both dyntick and highres timer options
were activated.
In theory contiguous mode of the timers is also affected but in an act of
hopeless lack of realism I'll assume nobody will ever configure a KERNEL
for HZ > 500kHz but if so I leave that to evolution to sort out.

Shadow register support would not possibly have worked on multicore
systems. The support code for it was also depending not on MIPS R2 but
VSMP or SMTC kernels even though it makes perfect sense with UP kernels.
SR sets are a scarce resource and the expected usage pattern is that
users actually hardcode the register set numbers in their code. So fix
the allocator by ditching it. Move the remaining CPU probe bits into
the generic CPU probe.
