The interrupt status registers should be read in row to avoid invalid data.
Alter "read" method for both bus options to allow reading several registers
in a row and make sure we read interrupt status registers properly.
Read sequence saves 50% of bus transactions compared to single register
reads. So use it also for the result registers, which are also located
in a row.
Also update copyright notice.

spi_write() requires use of DMA-safe (cacheline aligned) buffers.
Also use the same buffers when reading data since to avoid extra
locking and potential memory allocation in spi_write_then_read().

Fix regression for HVM case on older (<4.1.1) hypervisors caused by
commit 99bbb3a84a99cd04ab16b998b20f01a72cfa9f4f
Author: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com>
Date: Thu Dec 2 17:55:10 2010 +0000
xen: PV on HVM: support PV spinlocks and IPIs
This change replaced the SMP operations with event based handlers without
taking into account that this only works when the hypervisor supports
callback vectors. This causes unexplainable hangs early on boot for
HVM guests with more than one CPU.

divides on 32-bit architectures.
In cases where we need to divide/multiply by 2 we should just left/right

do_div. Also make the counters u64 to match up with rw_devices.

If we can't push the pending register windows onto the user's stack,
we disallow signal delivery even if the signal would be delivered on a
valid seperate signal stack.
Add a register window save area in the signal frame, and store any
unsavable windows there.
On sigreturn, if any windows are still queued up in the signal frame,
try to push them back onto the stack and if that fails we kill the
process immediately.
This allows the debug/tst-longjmp_chk2 glibc test case to pass.

the hardware and the call to change the backend to br2684, br2684_regvcc
processes the packet and oopses dereferencing skb->dev because it is

Currently HD-audio driver shows the all error ELD byte as an error
in the kernel message. This is annoying when the video driver doesn't
set the correct ELD from the beginning. e.g. radeon sends a zero-byte
data, but we still check ELD with the fixed 128 byte as a workaround
for some broken devices, it spews 128-times errors.
For avoiding this, the driver aborts reading when the first byte is
invalid. In such a case, the whole data is certainly invalid.

There is a race between ext4 buffer write and direct_IO read with
dioread_nolock mount option enabled. The problem is that we clear
PageWriteback flag during end_io time but will do
uninitialized-to-initialized extent conversion later with dioread_nolock.
If an O_direct read request comes in during this period, ext4 will return
zero instead of the recently written data.
This patch checks whether there are any pending uninitialized-to-initialized
extent conversion requests before doing O_direct read to close the race.
Note that this is just a bandaid fix. The fundamental issue is that we
clear PageWriteback flag before we really complete an IO, which is
problem-prone. To fix the fundamental issue, we may need to implement an
extent tree cache that we can use to look up pending to-be-converted extents.

After commit 665d001338b494d6d62810aa99b4c0fa1a0884b9 ("OMAP2+: hwmod:
Follow the recommended PRCM module enable sequence"), device drivers
for OMAP IP blocks that do not use runtime PM can cause oopses or
kernel instability[1][2].
This is because those non-runtime PM drivers do not use the hwmod
code, which implements the correct IP block enable and disable
sequence.
Several options for dealing with this problem have been proposed:
1. Add a new field to the OMAP struct clk to mark clocks that are
currently used by non-runtime PM drivers. Modify the clock code to
use the old clockdomain sequence for these marked clocks. As
drivers are converted to use runtime PM, remove the annotation from
the clocks.
2. Similar to #1, but associate the flag with the struct omap_clk
instead.
3. Add IDLEST wait support to the OMAP4 clock code, similar to the way
it is implemented for OMAP2/3, and enable it in each struct clk
currently used by non-runtime PM drivers. As drivers are converted
to use runtime PM, remove the annotation from the clocks.
4. Do nothing; leave the problem to those responsible for the
unconverted drivers.
5. Re-enable clock-based clockdomain control in the OMAP4 clock code.
This would revert back to the behavior of Linux 3.0, simply with a
slightly longer module enable/disable latency.
Unfortunately, no approach seemed particularly good. Options 1
through 3 seemed unwise due to the following reasons:
A. The OMAP struct clks are intended primarily to describe hardware
clock nodes, and the intention is that no driver-specific data
should be stored there (applies to #1)
B. The resulting patch would have been quite large for the -rc series
(applies to #1, #2, #3)
C. The patch would have been a new, yet temporary hack; and similar fixes
have drawn negative comments in the recent past (see for example [3])
Option 4 is undesirable because commit
665d001338b494d6d62810aa99b4c0fa1a0884b9 ("OMAP2+: hwmod: Follow the
recommended PRCM module enable sequence") has resulted in a less
stable kernel; and kernel stability is more important than OMAP4 power
management.
Option 5 is the approach taken in this patch. This seemed to be the
least intrusive approach for 3.1-rc.
The approach in this patch was originally proposed by Ohad Ben-Cohen
<ohad@wizery.com>. I'm simply writing the commit message and passing
it along.

Program all powerdomain target state as ON; this is to prevent domains
from hitting low power states (if bootloader has target states set to
something other than ON) and potentially even losing context while PM
is not fully initialized, which can cause the system to crash. The PM
late init code can then program the desired target state for all the
power domains.

Prior to Ivybridge, the GFX_MODE would default to 0x800, meaning that
MI_FLUSH would flush the TLBs in addition to the rest of the caches
indicated in the MI_FLUSH command. However starting with Ivybridge, the
register defaults to 0x2800 out of reset, meaning that to invalidate the
TLB we need to use PIPE_CONTROL. Since we're not doing that yet, go
back to the old default so things work.

12 JBOD disks, on each disk runs 8 concurrent tasks doing reads+writes.
Using deadline scheduler also has a regression, but not that big as CFQ,
so this suggests we have some write starvation.
The test logs show that
- the disks are sometimes under utilized
- global dirty pages sometimes rush high to the pass-good area for
several hundred seconds, while in the mean time some bdi dirty pages
drop to very low value (bdi_dirty << bdi_thresh). Then suddenly the
global dirty pages dropped under global dirty threshold and bdi_dirty
rush very high (for example, 2 times higher than bdi_thresh). During
which time balance_dirty_pages() is not called at all.
So the problems are
1) The random writes progress so slow that they break the assumption of
the max-pause logic that "8 pages per 200ms is typically more than
enough to curb heavy dirtiers".
2) The max-pause logic ignored task_bdi_thresh and thus opens the possibility
for some bdi's to over dirty pages, leading to (bdi_dirty >> bdi_thresh)
and then (bdi_thresh >> bdi_dirty) for others.
3) The higher max-pause/pass-good thresholds somehow leads to the bad
swing of dirty pages.
The fix is to allow the task to slightly dirty over task_bdi_thresh, but
no way to exceed bdi_dirty and/or global dirty_thresh.
Tests show that it fixed the JBOD regression completely (both behavior
and performance), while still being able to cut down large pause times
in balance_dirty_pages() for single-disk cases.
