When trying to compile the 3.1-rc10 kernel for my MIPS board with C=1
(sparse checking), the build fails early with the error:

It seems the shell chokes because sparse is called with command line
arguments such as:
-D__INT8_C(c)='c'
Converting these to form:
-D'__INT8_C(c)'='c'
seems to fix the problem.

After the recent cleanup of the register_*_smp_ops() functions msp71xx
wasn't fixed to include the now necessary header resulting in:

Use -march=xlr if available, otherwise fallback to mips64. This allows
us to support compilation with MIPS toolchains which are not customized
for XLR.
[ralf@linux-mips.org: And more importantly it works around a gas bug in
binutils 2.21 which otherwise may result in an assertion failure building
arch/mips/kernel/genex.S. See
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12915 for details.]

This reverts commit 97475f8b42e83be2966aa2d70ab9c98477701c53 (lmo) /
82b89152f00f7ad17844d5614d5011e8d7944ac9 (kernel.org) [MIPS: LD/SD o32
macro GAS fix update].
Turns out this patch is producing many build errors with gcc 4.2. Based
on further testing with a test case extracted from the build errors found
further build errors and suboptimal generation even in violation of the
"R" constraint.
To make matters worse, the binutils changes also don't work quite as
intended so revert this patch for now.

If Open Firmware / Device Tree support is enabled on a SNI RM kernel both
<asm/mipsprom.h> and <asm/prom.h> will be included into some .c files.
Since both headers use the same wrapper symbol only the inclusion of the
first file will have an effect but the 2nd file will be ignored resulting
in a build error.

Until now flush_kernel_vmap_range() and invalidate_kernel_vmap_range() did
not exist on MIPS resulting in heavy cache corruption on XFS filesystems.
Left for the post-3.0 time: optimization and make this work with highmem,
too. Since the combination of highmem + cache aliases atm doesn't work
this isn't a regression.

According to the datasheet:
BIT 2:1
VMID_SEL[1:0] VMID Divider Enable and Select
00 = VMID disabled
01 = 2x40k Omh divider
10 = 2x240k Omh divider
11 = 2x5k Omh divider
To set VMID 2*240k, we should OR reg with 0x04 instead of 0x40.

Instead, store a pointer to the currently assigned function.
This allows us to delete the mux_requested variable from pin_desc; a pin
is requested if its currently assigned function is non-NULL.
When a pin is requested as a GPIO rather than a regular function, the
assigned function name is dynamically constructed. In this case, we have
to kstrdup() the dynamically constructed name, so that mux_function doesn't
pointed at stack data. This requires pin_free to be told whether to free
the mux_function pointer or not.
This removes the hard-coded maximum function name length.

A pin controller's names array is no longer marked __refdata. Hence, we
can avoid copying a pin's name into the descriptor when registering it.
Instead, just point at the string supplied in the pin array.
This both simplifies and speeds up pin controller initialization, but
also removes the hard-coded maximum pin name length.

A pin controller's pin definitions are used both during pinctrl_register()

get_group_pins() "returns" a pointer to an array of const objects, through
a pointer parameter. Fix the prototype so what's pointed at by the returned
pointer is const, rather than the function parameter being const.
This also allows the removal of a cast in each of the two current pinmux
drivers.

A few network drivers currently use skb_frag_struct for this purpose but I have
patches which add additional fields and semantics there which these other uses
do not want.
A structure for reference sub-page regions seems like a generally useful thing
so do so instead of adding a network subsystem specific structure.

Following the 'perf report' model we don't zap hist_entry instances from
the rb tree, we just keep them with he->filtered set to a mask of the
filters applied to it (thread, parent, DSO so far).
In top we need to decay even filtered entries, but we better not touch
total_period for them...
Now everything seems to work when filters are applied on top as they
worked in 'report', i.e. both dynamic and static hist entry browsing
works with filters.

I don't usually pay much attention to the stale "? " addresses in
stack backtraces, but this lucky report from Pawel Sikora hints that
mremap's move_ptes() has inadequate locking against page migration.
3.0 BUG_ON(!PageLocked(p)) in migration_entry_to_page():
kernel BUG at include/linux/swapops.h:105!
RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff81127b76>] [<ffffffff81127b76>]

[<ffffffff81421d5f>] page_fault+0x1f/0x30
mremap's down_write of mmap_sem, together with i_mmap_mutex or lock,
and pagetable locks, were good enough before page migration (with its
requirement that every migration entry be found) came in, and enough
while migration always held mmap_sem; but not enough nowadays, when
there's memory hotremove and compaction.
The danger is that move_ptes() lets a migration entry dodge around
behind remove_migration_pte()'s back, so it's in the old location when
looking at the new, then in the new location when looking at the old.
Either mremap's move_ptes() must additionally take anon_vma lock(), or
migration's remove_migration_pte() must stop peeking for is_swap_entry()
before it takes pagetable lock.
Consensus chooses the latter: we prefer to add overhead to migration
than to mremapping, which gets used by JVMs and by exec stack setup.

This assumes fixed mappings which will not work once we move
to use ioremap_exec(). It seems that these are currently
not in use, or in use for some out of tree corner cases.
If SRAM support for framebuffer is wanted, it should be done
with ioremap in the driver.
Note that further removal of the code can now be done,
but that can be done seprately by the driver maintainers.

This allows removing omap hacks for map_io allowing generic

Note that in the future we can't do cpu_is_omapxxxx detection
until in init_early. This means that board-innovator.c now
assumes 15xx only, and board-generic.c assumes 16xx only.
This is best fixed later on by passing the SoC type from

Problem using big mtu around 4096 bytes is you end allocating (4096
+NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN + sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) bytes ->
8192 bytes : order-1 pages
It's better to limit the mtu to SKB_MAX_HEAD(NET_SKB_PAD),
to have no more than one page per skb.
Also the patch changes the netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align() done in
init_dma_desc_rings() and uses a variant allowing GFP_KERNEL allocations
allowing the driver to load even in case of memory pressure.

This patch enhances the STMMAC driver to support CHAINED mode of
descriptor.
STMMAC supports DMA descriptor to operate both in dual buffer(RING)
and linked-list(CHAINED) mode. In RING mode (default) each descriptor
points to two data buffer pointers whereas in CHAINED mode they point
to only one data buffer pointer.
In CHAINED mode each descriptor will have pointer to next descriptor in
the list, hence creating the explicit chaining in the descriptor itself,
whereas such explicit chaining is not possible in RING mode.
First version of this work has been done by Rayagond.
Then the patch has been reworked avoiding ifdef inside the C code.
A new header file has been added to define all the functions needed for
managing enhanced and normal descriptors.
In fact, these have to be specialized according to the ring/chain usage.
Two new C files have been also added to implement the helper routines
needed to manage: jumbo frames, chain and ring setup (i.e. desc3).
