commit 8f9c0119d7ba (compat: fs: Generic compat_sys_sendfile
implementation) changed the PowerPC 64bit sendfile call from
sys_sendile64 to sys_sendfile.
Unfortunately this broke sendfile of lengths greater than 2G because
sys_sendfile caps at MAX_NON_LFS. Restore what we had previously which
fixes the bug.

This provides debugfs files to access the LPC bus on Power8
non-virtualized using the appropriate OPAL firmware calls.
The usage is simple: one file per space (IO, MEM and FW),
lseek to the address and read/write the data. IO and MEM always
generate series of byte accesses. FW can generate word and dword
accesses if aligned properly.
Based on an original patch from Rob Lippert and reworked.

We had a mix & match of flags used when creating legacy ports
depending on where we found them in the device-tree. Among others
we were missing UPF_SKIP_TEST for some kind of ISA ports which is
a problem as quite a few UARTs out there don't support the loopback
test (such as a lot of BMCs).
Let's pick the set of flags used by the SoC code and generalize it
which means autoconf, no loopback test, irq maybe shared and fixed
port.
Sending to stable as the lack of UPF_SKIP_TEST is breaking
serial on some machines so I want this back into distros

There are a couple of places where xmon is using %x to print values that
are unsigned long.
I found this out the hard way recently:
0:mon> p c000000000d0e7c8 c00000033dc90000 00000000a0000089 c000000000000000
return value is 0x96300500
Which is calling find_linux_pte_or_hugepte(), the result should be a
kernel pointer. After decoding the page tables by hand I discovered the
correct value was c000000396300500.
So fix up that case and a few others.
We also use a mix of 0x%x, %x and %u to print cpu numbers. So
standardise on 0x%x.

When running as a powernv "host" system on P8, we need to switch
the endianness of interrupt handlers. This does it via the appropriate
call to the OPAL firmware which may result in just switching HID0:HILE
but depending on the processor version might need to do a few more
things. This call must be done early before any other processor has
been brought out of firmware.

The default root is allocated and initialized at boot phase, so we
shouldn't destroy the default root when it's umounted, otherwise
it will lead to disaster.
Just try mount and then umount the default root, and the kernel will
crash immediately.

- No need to check for CSS_NO_REF in cgroup_get/put(). (Tejun)
- Better call cgroup_put() for the default root in kill_sb(). (Tejun)

For atomic, it will be quite necessary to not need to care so much
about locking order. And 'state' gives us a convenient place to stash a
ww_ctx for any sort of update that needs to grab multiple crtc locks.
Because we will want to eventually make locking even more fine grained
(giving locks to planes, connectors, etc), split out drm_modeset_lock
and drm_modeset_acquire_ctx to track acquired locks.
Atomic will use this to keep track of which locks have been acquired
in a transaction.
v1: original
v2: remove a few things not needed until atomic, for now
v3: update for v3 of connection_mutex patch..
v4: squash in docbook

CLONE_SIGHAND
1. Remove CLONE_KERNEL, it has no users and it is dangerous.
The (old) comment says "List of flags we want to share for kernel
threads" but this is not true, we do not want to share ->sighand by
default. This flag can only be used if the caller is sure that both
parent/child will never play with signals (say, allow_signal/etc).
2. Change rest_init() to clone kernel_init() without CLONE_SIGHAND.
In this case CLONE_SIGHAND does not really hurt, and it looks like
optimization because copy_sighand() can avoid kmem_cache_alloc().
But in fact this only adds the minor pessimization. kernel_init()
is going to exec the init process, and de_thread() will need to
unshare ->sighand and do kmem_cache_alloc(sighand_cachep) anyway,
but it needs to do more work and take tasklist_lock and siglock.

When a module is built into the kernel the module_init() function
becomes an initcall. Sometimes debugging through dynamic debug can
help, however, debugging built in kernel modules is typically done by
changing the .config, recompiling, and booting the new kernel in an
effort to determine exactly which module caused a problem.
This patchset can be useful stand-alone or combined with initcall_debug.
There are cases where some initcalls can hang the machine before the
console can be flushed, which can make initcall_debug output inaccurate.
Having the ability to skip initcalls can help further debugging of these
scenarios.
Usage: initcall_blacklist=<list of comma separated initcalls>
ex) added "initcall_blacklist=sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter and
the log contains:
blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init
...
...
initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted
ex) added "initcall_blacklist=foo_bar,sgi_uv_sysfs_init" as a kernel parameter
and the log contains:
blacklisting initcall foo_bar
blacklisting initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init
...
...
initcall sgi_uv_sysfs_init blacklisted

Pertially revert commit ea676e846a81 ("init/main.c: convert to
pr_foo()").
Unbeknownst to me, pr_debug() is different from the other pr_foo()
levels: pr_debug() is a no-op when DEBUG is not defined.
Happily, init/main.c does have a #define DEBUG so we didn't break
initcall_debug. But the functioning of initcall_debug should not be
dependent upon the presence of that #define DEBUG.

We attempt to search for compatible strings which use a variable token in
the documented name such as <chip> or <soc>. While this was attempted to
be handled, it's utterly broken.
The desired forms of matching are:
vendor,<chip>-*
vendor,name<part#>-*
For <chip>, lower case characters and numbers are permitted. For <part#>,
only numeric values are allowed.
With this change, the number of missing compatible strings reported in
arch/arm/boot/dts is reduced from 1071 to 960.

... instead of naked numbers.
Stuff in sysrq.c used to set it to 8 which is supposed to mean above
default level so set it to DEBUG instead as we're terminating/killing all
tasks and we want to be verbose there.
Also, correct the check in x86_64_start_kernel which should be >= as
we're clearly issuing the string there for all debug levels, not only
the magical 10.
