Geert Uytterhoeven 52de114e35 m68k: Prefix ISA type with ISA_TYPE_
The *_ISA type defines are quite generic and cause namespace conflicts
(e.g. with `AMIGAHW_DECLARE(GG2_ISA)' in <asm/amigahw.h>) for some kernel
configurations. Use ISA_TYPE_* to avoid such conflicts.

Lennert Buytenhek bbdf1c1e58 [ARM] 5037/1: Orion: fix DNS323/Kurobox Pro PCI initialisation
Whereas most Orion 5x machine support code would initialise the PCI
subsystem with nr_controllers in their struct hw_pci set to 2, the
DNS323 and Kurobox Pro machine support code had nr_controllers set
to 1.

This was presumably done because on those two machines, the PCI(-X)
controller (nr == 1) isn't used, requiring initialisation of only
the PCIe controller (nr == 0.)  However, not initialising the PCI(-X)
controller on boards that don't use it leads to a situation where
both the PCIe and the PCI(-X) controller think that their root bus is
zero, and it messes up IRQ assignment.

This patch changes the DNS323 and Kurobox Pro support code to always
use nr_controllers == 2.

Thomas Gleixner e9623b3559 x86: disable mwait for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs
The previous revert of 0c07ee38c9 left
out the mwait disable condition for AMD family 10H/11H CPUs.

Andreas Herrman said:

It depends on the CPU. For AMD CPUs that support MWAIT this is wrong.
Family 0x10 and 0x11 CPUs will enter C1 on HLT. Powersavings then
depend on a clock divisor and current Pstate of the core.

If all cores of a processor are in halt state (C1) the processor can
enter the C1E (C1 enhanced) state. If mwait is used this will never
happen.

Thus HLT saves more power than MWAIT here.

It might be best to switch off the mwait flag for these AMD CPU
families like it was introduced with commit
f039b75471 (x86: Don't use MWAIT on AMD
Family 10)

Re-add the AMD families 10H/11H check and disable the mwait usage for
those.

More importantly - my previous patch "init: don't lose initcall return

potential buffer overflow by wrong calculation of string accumulator
size.

Use strlcat() instead, fixing both bugs.

upstream kernel bug in the tty code, which caused a BKL
reference leak:

  ================================================
  [ BUG: lock held when returning to user space! ]
  ------------------------------------------------
  dmesg/3121 is leaving the kernel with locks still held!
  1 lock held by dmesg/3121:
   #0:  (kernel_mutex){--..}, at: [<c02f34d9>] opost+0x24/0x194

this might explain some of the atomicity warnings and crashes
that -tip tree testing has been experiencing since the BKL
was converted back to a spinlock.

Huang, Xiaolan 839052d27e [IA64] fix personality(PER_LINUX32) performance issue
The patch aims to fix a performance issue for the syscall
personality(PER_LINUX32).

On IA-64 box, the syscall personality (PER_LINUX32) has poor performance
because it failed to find the Linux/x86 execution domain. Then it tried
to load the kernel module however it failed always and it used the default
execution domain PER_LINUX instead. Requesting kernel modules is very
expensive. It caused the performance issue. (see the function
lookup_exec_domain in kernel/exec_domain.c).

To resolve the issue, execution domain Linux/x86 is always registered in
initialization time for IA-64 architecture.
