We can't OR shift values, so get rid of BIO_RW_SYNC and use BIO_RW_SYNCIO
and BIO_RW_UNPLUG explicitly. This brings back the behaviour from before

When submitting requests via SG_IO, which does a sync io, a
bsg_command is not allocated. So an in-Kernel sense_buffer was not
set. However when calling blk_execute_rq() with no sense buffer
one is provided from the stack. Now bsg at blk_complete_sgv4_hdr_rq()
would check if rq->sense_len and a sense was requested by sg_io_v4
the rq->sense was copy_user() back, but by now it is already mangled
stack memory.
I have fixed that by forcing a sense_buffer when calling bsg_map_hdr().
The bsg_command->sense is provided in the write/read path like before,
and on-the-stack buffer is provided when doing SG_IO.
I have also fixed a dprintk message to print rq->errors in hex because
of the scsi bit-field use of this member. For other block devices it
does not matter anyway.

A long time ago we had bugs, primarily in TCP, where we would modify
skb->truesize (for TSO queue collapsing) in ways which would corrupt
the socket memory accounting.
skb_truesize_check() was added in order to try and catch this error
more systematically.
However this debugging check has morphed into a Frankenstein of sorts
and these days it does nothing other than catch false-positives.

If a USB PCI controller is behind a cardbus bridge, we are trying to
restore its configuration registers too early, before the cardbus
bridge is operational. To fix this, call pci_restore_state() from
usb_hcd_pci_resume() and remove usb_hcd_pci_resume_early() which is
no longer necessary (the configuration spaces of USB controllers that
are not behind cardbus bridges will be restored by the PCI PM core
with interrupts disabled anyway).
This patch fixes the regression from 2.6.28 tracked as
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12659
[ Side note: the proper long-term fix is probably to just force the
unplug event at suspend time instead of doing a plug/unplug at resume
time, but this patch is fine regardless - Linus ]

Impact: Higher priority bug fix
The machine check poller runs a single timer and then broadcasted an
IPI to all CPUs to check them. This leads to unnecessary
synchronization between CPUs. The original CPU running the timer has
to wait potentially a long time for all other CPUs answering. This is
also real time unfriendly and in general inefficient.
This was especially a problem on systems with a lot of events where
the poller run with a higher frequency after processing some events.
There could be more and more CPU time wasted with this, to
the point of significantly slowing down machines.
The machine check polling is actually fully independent per CPU, so
there's no reason to not just do this all with per CPU timers. This
patch implements that.
Also switch the poller also to use standard timers instead of work
queues. It was using work queues to be able to execute a user program
on a event, but mce_notify_user() handles this case now with a
separate callback. So instead always run the poll code in in a
standard per CPU timer, which means that in the common case of not
having to execute a trigger there will be less overhead.
This allows to clean up the initialization significantly, because
standard timers are already up when machine checks get init'ed. No
multiple initialization functions.
Thanks to Thomas Gleixner for some help.

Impact: Needed for bug fix in next patch
This relaxes the requirement that mce_notify_user has to run in process
context. Useful for future changes, but also leads to cleaner
behaviour now. Now instead mce_notify_user can be called directly
from interrupt (but not NMI) context.
The work queue only uses a single global work struct, which can be done safely
because it is always free to reuse before the trigger function is executed.
This way no events can be lost.

Impact: low priority bug fix
This removes part of a a patch I added myself some time ago. After some
consideration the patch was a bad idea. In particular it stopped machine check
exceptions during code patching.
To quote the comment:
* MCEs only happen when something got corrupted and in this
* case we must do something about the corruption.
* Ignoring it is worse than a unlikely patching race.
* Also machine checks tend to be broadcast and if one CPU
* goes into machine check the others follow quickly, so we don't
* expect a machine check to cause undue problems during to code
* patching.
So undo the machine check related parts of
8f4e956b313dcccbc7be6f10808952345e3b638c NMIs are still disabled.
This only removes code, the only additions are a new comment.

Impact: Bug fix
During suspend it is not reliable to process machine check
exceptions, because CPUs disappear but can still get machine check
broadcasts. Also the system is slightly more likely to
machine check them, but the handler is typically not a position
to handle them in a meaningfull way.
So disable them during suspend and enable them during resume.
Also make sure they are always disabled on hot-unplugged CPUs.
This new code assumes that suspend always hotunplugs all
non BP CPUs.

This fixes a long standing bug in the machine check code. On resume the
boot CPU wouldn't get its vendor specific state like thermal handling
reinitialized. This means the boot cpu wouldn't ever get any thermal

The GPIO interrupts can be configured as either level triggered or edge
triggered, with a default of level triggered. When an edge triggered
interrupt is requested, the gpio_irq_set_type method is called which
currently switches the given IRQ descriptor between two struct irq_chip
instances: orion_gpio_irq_level_chip and orion_gpio_irq_edge_chip. This
happens via __setup_irq() which also calls irq_chip_set_defaults() to
assign default methods to uninitialized ones. The problem is that
irq_chip_set_defaults() is called before the irq_chip reference is
switched, leaving the new irq_chip (orion_gpio_irq_edge_chip in this
case) with uninitialized methods such as chip->startup() causing a kernel
oops.
Many solutions are possible, such as making irq_chip_set_defaults() global
and calling it from gpio_irq_set_type(), or calling __irq_set_trigger()
before irq_chip_set_defaults() in __setup_irq(). But those require
modifications to the generic IRQ code which might have adverse effect on
other architectures, and that would still be a fragile arrangement.
Manually copying the missing methods from within gpio_irq_set_type()
would be really ugly and it would break again the day new methods with
automatic defaults are added.
A better solution is to have a single irq_chip instance which can deal
with both edge and level triggered interrupts. It is also a good idea
to switch the IRQ handler instead, as the edge IRQ handler allows for
one edge IRQ event to be queued as the IRQ is actually masked only when
that second IRQ is received, at which point the hardware can queue an
additional IRQ event, making edge triggered interrupts a bit more
reliable.

This is the cause of the DMA faults and disk corruption that people have
been seeing. Some chipsets neglect to report the RWBF "capability" --
the flag which says that we need to flush the chipset write-buffer when
changing the DMA page tables, to ensure that the change is visible to
the IOMMU.
Override that bit on the affected chipsets, and everything is happy
again.

Shows rcu_check_callbacks() being invoked way too often. It should be called
once per jiffy, and here it is called no less than 22 times in about
3.5 milliseconds, meaning one call every 160 microseconds or so.
Why do we need to call rcu_pending() and rcu_check_callbacks() from the
idle loop of 32-bit x86, especially given that no other architecture does
this?
The following patch removes the call to rcu_pending() and
rcu_check_callbacks() from the x86 32-bit idle loop in order to
reduce the softirq load on idle systems.

Impact: Cleanup; fix inappropriate macro use
ISA addresses on x86 are mapped 1:1 with the physical address space.
Since the ISA address space is only 24 bits (32 for VLB or LPC) it
will always fit in an unsigned int, and at least in the aha1542 driver
using a wider type would cause an undesirable promotion. Hence
explicitly cast the ISA bus addresses to unsigned int.

Move the 32-bit extended-arch APIC drivers to arch/x86/kernel/apic/
too, and rename apic_64.c to probe_64.c.

This patch fixes a number of cases where things were not properly
cleaned up when acpi_check_resource_conflict() returned an error,
causing oopses such as the one reported here:

If the F71882FG chip is at address 0x4e, then the probe at 0x2e will
fail with the following message in the logs:
f71882fg: Not a Fintek device
This is misleading because there is a Fintek device, just at a
different address. So I propose to degrade this message to a debug
message.
