Impact: fix crash
xpc needs to pass the physical address, not virtual.
Testing uncovered this problem. The virtual address happens to work
most of the time due to the way bios was masking off the node bits.
Passing the physical address makes it work all of the time.

Impact: fix disabled MCE after resume
Don't prevent multiple initialization of MCEs.
Back from early prehistory mcheck_init() has a reentry check. Presumably
that was needed in very old kernels to prevent it entering twice.
But as Andreas points out this prevents CPU hotplug (and therefore resume)
to correctly reinitialize MCEs when a AP boots again after being
offlined.
Just drop the check.

Impact: fix UV boot crash
This fixes a UV bug related to generating global memory addresses
on partitioned systems. Partition systems do not have physical memory
at address 0. Instead, a chunk of high memory is remapped by the chipset
so that it appears to be at address 0. This remapping is INVISIBLE to most
of the OS. The only OS functions that need to be aware of the remaping are
functions that directly interface to the chipset. The GRU is one example.
Also, delete a couple of unused macros related to global memory addresses.

Impact: cleanup, remove dead debug code
I ran across some old debugging code in vmi paravirt-ops code that was
already dead, but still potentially useful. After reviewing recent
changes to the way kernel page tables are allocated and initialized, and
the lack of bugs caught by this debugging code, I've concluded it is now
totally useless to have around, and it's already been #if 0'd for quite
some time.
There's no rush to get this in mainline, but it's also totally harmless,
so I'll let the x86 maintainers decide where it should be tucked. I've
been out of the mainstream dev loop for a couple months, so apologies if
I haven't got any protocol changes in order.

Impact: clarify documentation
Documentation/x86/boot.txt describes payload_offset as the offset
from the end of the real-mode code. In fact, it is more accurately
described as the offset from the beginning of the protected-mode
code, as (a) this is how it is actually calculated and (b) the padding
after the real-mode code is not included in the offset.

As noted by Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>, we can never
trigger the check for being in suspend due to the result
of !readl(i2c->regs + S3C2410_IICCON) & S3C2410_IICCON_IRQEN
always being 0.
Add suspend/resume hooks to stop i2c transactions happening
until the driver has been resumed.

Make the driver report an ENXIO error immediately upon NAK instead of
waiting for another interrupt and getting a timeout.
When reading from a device that is not present or declines to respond
to, e.g., a non-existent register address, CPM immediately reports a
NAK condition in the TxBD, but the driver kept waiting until a timeout,
which takes 1 second and causes an ugly console error message.

Impact: reward non-stop TSCs with good TSC-based clocksources, etc.
Add support for CPUID_0x80000007_Bit8 on Intel CPUs as well. This bit means
that the TSC is invariant with C/P/T states and always runs at constant
frequency.
With Intel CPUs, we have 3 classes
* CPUs where TSC runs at constant rate and does not stop n C-states
* CPUs where TSC runs at constant rate, but will stop in deep C-states
* CPUs where TSC rate will vary based on P/T-states and TSC will stop in deep
C-states.
To cover these 3, one feature bit (CONSTANT_TSC) is not enough. So, add a
second bit (NONSTOP_TSC). CONSTANT_TSC indicates that the TSC runs at
constant frequency irrespective of P/T-states, and NONSTOP_TSC indicates
that TSC does not stop in deep C-states.
CPUID_0x8000000_Bit8 indicates both these feature bit can be set.
We still have CONSTANT_TSC _set_ and NONSTOP_TSC _not_set_ on some older Intel
CPUs, based on model checks. We can use TSC on such CPUs for time, as long as
those CPUs do not support/enter deep C-states.

A bug in the fusion driver was exposed by the switch to block timeout.
Basically, drivers are supposed to terminate commands once error
handling begins on them. The fusion apparently wasn't doing this.
Under the old timeout regime, completions on terminated commands would
by and large get ignored because of the way command timeouts used to
work. The new block timers are very intolerant to this, though,
becuase the request gets cleaned and freed.

Impact: remove dead/incorrect code
Currently there is no chipset specific ucode. The checks are incorrect
anyway (e.g. pci device IDs are 16 bit and not 8 bit).
Thus I remove the stuff for the time being and will reintroduce it if
it's foreseeable that it is really needed.

When the tuner modules were moved to common/tuners, a separate customize
option were added for tuners. However, the automatic selection of the
tuners were still using the older option.
This causes that the automatic selection to fail, if DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE is
selected. Also, since those tuners are now under MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE
menu, if you unset MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE, you can't manually select the
tuners.
This patch fixes this error by replacing DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE by
MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE on all places were a tuner is selected.
The patch were generated by this small script:
for i in `find drivers/media -name Kconfig`; do
cat $i|perl -ne 's/(MEDIA_TUNER.*)DVB_FE_CUSTOMISE/\1MEDIA_TUNER_CUSTOMIZE/; print $_' >a
mv a $i
done
Also, manually reordered the tuner entries.

At some point the Flexcop driver was changed to support newer Flexcop cards.
These modifications however broke the detection of Cablestar 2 DVB-C cards.
The reason is that the earlier version of the driver used to retry
unsuccessful i2c operations. The demodulator of Cablestar 2 cards (stv0297)
seems to be very dependent on these retries and adding them back fixes
Cablestar detection.
This patch restores this behaviour for the CableStar2.

A user noticed that there would continue to be 4-6 keypresses even after the
user stopped holding down the button. This was because we were not reading
the bulk pipe faster than the firmware was injecting information, which would
result in a backlog.
Make the query interval faster, and increase the number of cycles before we
start repeating to compensate.

on 64-bit x86 the physical memory limit is controlled by the sparsemem
bits - which are 44 bits right now. But MAXMEM (the max pfn number
e820 parsing will allow to enter our sizing routines) is set to
0x00003fffffffffff, i.e. 46 bits - that's too large because it overlaps
into the vmalloc range.
So couple MAXMEM to MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS, and add a comment that the
maximum of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS is 45 bits.
