Irq stacks provide an essential protection from stack overflows through
external interrupts, at the cost of two additionals stacks per CPU.
Enable them unconditionally to simplify the kernel build and prevent
people from accidentally disabling them.

kexec_perpare_cpus_wait() iterates i through NR_CPUS to check
paca[i].kexec_state of each to make sure they have quiesced.
However now we have dynamic PACA allocation, paca[NR_CPUS] is not necessarily
valid and we overrun the array; spurious "cpu is not possible, ignoring"
errors result. This patch iterates for_each_online_cpu so stays
within the bounds of paca[] -- and every CPU is now 'possible'.

We are seeing boot fails on some System p machines when using the kdump
crashkernel= boot option. The default kdump base address is 32MB, so if we
reserve 256MB for kdump then we reserve all of the RMO except the first 32MB.
We really want kdump to reserve some memory in the RMO and most of it
elsewhere but that will require more significant changes. For now we can shift
the default base address to 64MB when CONFIG_PPC64 and CONFIG_RELOCATABLE are
set. This isn't quite correct since what we really care about is the kdump
kernel is relocatable, but we already make the assumption that base kernel
and kdump kernel have the same CONFIG_RELOCATABLE setting, eg:
#ifndef CONFIG_RELOCATABLE
if (crashk_res.start != KDUMP_KERNELBASE)
printk("Crash kernel location must be 0x%x\n",
KDUMP_KERNELBASE);
...
RTAS is instantiated towards the top of our RMO, so if we were to go any
higher we risk not having enough RMO memory for the kdump kernel on boxes
with a 128MB RMO.

The flow id (scd_flow) in a compressed BA packet should match the txq_id
of the queue from which the aggregated packets were sent. However, in
some hardware like the 1000 series, sometimes the flow id is 0 for the
txq_id (10 to 19). This can cause the annoying message:
[ 2213.306191] iwlagn 0000:01:00.0: Received BA when not expected
[ 2213.310178] iwlagn 0000:01:00.0: Read index for DMA queue txq id (0),
index 5, is out of range [0-256] 7 7.
And even worse, if agg->wait_for_ba is true when the bad BA is arriving,
this can cause system hang due to NULL pointer dereference because the
code is operating in a wrong tx queue!

This patch added to 2.6.34:
commit f8d1dcaf88bddc7f282722ec1fdddbcb06a72f18
Author: Jesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com>
Date: Tue Apr 27 01:37:20 2010 +0000
ixgbe: enable extremely low latency
introduced a feature where LRO (called RSC on the hardware) was disabled
automatically when setting rx-usecs to 0 via ethtool. Some might not
like the fact that LRO was disabled automatically, but I'm fine with
that. What I don't like is that LRO/RSC is automatically enabled when
rx-usecs is set >0 via ethtool.
This would certainly be a problem if the device was used for forwarding
and it was determined that the low latency wasn't needed after the
device was already forwarding. I played around with saving the state of
LRO in the driver, but it just didn't seem worthwhile and would require
a small change to dev_disable_lro() that I did not like.
This patch simply leaves LRO disabled when setting rx-usecs >0 and
requires that the user enable it again. An extra informational message
will also now appear in the log so users can understand why LRO isn't
being enabled as they expect.
Inconsistency of LRO setting first noticed by Stanislaw Gruszka.

The sysfs interface allowing user space to disable/enable GPEs
doesn't work correctly, because a GPE disabled this way will be
re-enabled shortly by acpi_ev_asynch_enable_gpe() if it was
previosuly enabled by acpi_enable_gpe() (in which case the
corresponding bit in its enable register's enable_for_run mask is
set).
To address this issue make the sysfs GPE interface use
acpi_enable_gpe() and acpi_disable_gpe() instead of acpi_set_gpe()
so that GPE reference counters are modified by it along with the
values of GPE enable registers.

While developing the GPE reference counting code we overlooked the
fact that acpi_ev_update_gpes() could have enabled GPEs before
acpi_ev_initialize_gpe_block() was called. As a result, some GPEs
are enabled twice during the initialization.
To fix this issue avoid calling acpi_enable_gpe() from
acpi_ev_initialize_gpe_block() for the GPEs that have nonzero
runtime reference counters.

ACPICA uses acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() to re-enable a GPE after
an event signaled by it has been handled. However, this function
writes the entire GPE enable mask to the GPE's enable register which
may not be correct. Namely, if one of the other GPEs in the same
register was previously enabled by acpi_enable_gpe() and subsequently
disabled using acpi_set_gpe(), acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() will
re-enable it along with the target GPE.
To fix this issue rework acpi_hw_write_gpe_enable_reg() so that it
calls acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() with a special action value,
ACPI_GPE_COND_ENABLE, that will make it only enable the GPE if the
corresponding bit in its register's enable_for_run mask is set.

ACPICA uses acpi_ev_enable_gpe() for enabling GPEs at the low level,
which is incorrect, because this function only enables the GPE if the
corresponding bit in its enable register's enable_for_run mask is set.
This causes acpi_set_gpe() to work incorrectly if used for enabling
GPEs that were not previously enabled with acpi_enable_gpe(). As a
result, among other things, wakeup-only GPEs are never enabled by
acpi_enable_wakeup_device(), so the devices that use them are unable
to wake up the system.
To fix this issue remove acpi_ev_enable_gpe() and its counterpart
acpi_ev_disable_gpe() and replace acpi_hw_low_disable_gpe() with
acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() that will be used instead to manipulate GPE
enable bits at the low level. Make the users of acpi_ev_enable_gpe()
and acpi_ev_disable_gpe() call acpi_hw_low_set_gpe() instead and
make sure that GPE enable masks are only updated by acpi_enable_gpe()
and acpi_disable_gpe() when GPE reference counters change from 0
to 1 and from 1 to 0, respectively.

The standard behavior for drop_inode is to delete the inode when the
last reference to it is put and the nlink count goes to 0. This helps
keep inodes that are still considered "not deleted" in cache as long as
possible even when there aren't dentries attached to them.
When server inode numbers are disabled, it's not possible for cifs_iget
to ever match an existing inode (since inode numbers are generated via
iunique). In this situation, cifs can keep a lot of inodes in cache that
will never be used again.
Implement a drop_inode routine that deletes the inode if server inode
numbers are disabled on the mount. This helps keep the cifs inode
caches down to a more manageable size when server inode numbers are
disabled.

In quite a few places ACPICA needs to compute a GPE enable mask with

Commit 0f849d2cc6863c7874889ea60a871fb71399dd3f (ACPICA: Minimize
the differences between linux GPE code and ACPICA code base)
introduced a change attempting to disable a GPE before installing
a handler for it in acpi_install_gpe_handler() which was incorrect.
First, the GPE disabled by it is never enabled again (except during
resume) which leads to battery insert/remove events not being
reported on the Maxim Levitsky's machine. Second, the disabled
GPE is still reported as enabled by the sysfs interface that only
checks its enable register's enable_for_run mask.
Revert this change for now, because it causes more damage to happen
than the bug it was supposed to fix.

It's the offset calculation in reloc_location() which overflows:
return (void *)elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset +
(r->r_offset - sechdrs[section].sh_addr);
E.g. for the first rodata r entry:
r->r_offset < sechdrs[section].sh_addr
and the expression in the parenthesis produces 0xFFFFFFE0 or something
equally wise.

Yannick found that video does not work with 2.6.34. The cause of this
bug was that the BIOS had assigned the wrong range to the PCI bridge
above the video device. Before 2.6.34 the kernel would have shrunk
the size of the bridge window, but since
d65245c PCI: don't shrink bridge resources
the kernel will avoid shrinking BIOS ranges.
So zero out the old range if we fail to claim it at boot time; this will
cause us to allocate a new range at startup, restoring the 2.6.34
behavior.
