Currently, when the physical resume CPU is not equal to the physical suspend
CPU, we swap the CPUs logically, by modifying the logical/physical CPU mapping.
This has two major drawbacks: First the change is visible from user space (e.g.
CPU sysfs files) and second it is hard to ensure that nowhere in the kernel
the physical CPU ID is stored before suspend.
To fix this, we now really swap the physical CPUs, if the resume CPU is not
the pysical suspend CPU. We restart the suspend CPU and stop the resume CPU
using SIGP restart and SIGP stop. If the suspend CPU is no longer available,
we write a message and load a disabled wait PSW.

pfn_is_nosave doesn't return the correct value for the second lowcore
page if lowcore protection is enabled. Make sure it always returns
the correct value.

NSS special handling is done by the tprot check like it already works

arch_ptrace on s390 implements PTRACE_(PEEK|POKE)(TEXT|DATA) instead of
using using ptrace_request in kernel/ptrace.c.
The only reason is the 31bit addressing mode, where we have to unmask the

On resume the system that loads the to be resumed image might have
unstable pages.
When the resume image is copied back and a write access happen to an
unstable page this causes an exception and the system crashes.
To fix this set all free pages to stable before copying the resumed
image data. Also after everything has been restored set all free
pages of the resumed system to unstable again.

This moves the mmci platform data definition struct away from
arch/arm/include/asm/mach/mmc.h into the more proper place among
the other primecells in include/linux/amba/mmci.h and at the same
time renames it to "mmci.h", and also the struct in this file
confusingly named mmc_platform_data has been renamed
mmci_platform_data for clarity.

Current raise_local() uses a struct mce that comes from mce_write()
as a parameter instead of the real inject-msg, so when we set
mce.finished = 0 to clear injected MCE, the real inject stays
valid.
This will cause the remaining inject-msg affect the next injection,
which is not desired.
To fix this, real inject-msg is used in raise_local instead of the
one on the stack.
This patch is based on the diagnosis and the fixes by Dean Nelson.

If a system switches back and forth between hot and cold mode,
the MCE code will print a stream of critical kernel messages.
Extend the throttling code to properly notice this, by
only printing the first hot + cold transition and omitting
the rest up to CHECK_INTERVAL (5 minutes).
This way we'll only get a single incident of:
[ 102.356584] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 1)
[ 102.357000] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint
[ 102.369223] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal
Every 5 minutes. The 'total events' count tells the number of cold/hot
transitions detected, should overheating occur after 5 minutes again:
[ 402.357580] CPU0: Temperature above threshold, cpu clock throttled (total events = 24891)
[ 402.358001] CPU0: Temperature/speed normal
[ 450.704142] Machine check events logged

Instead of a mess of three separate percpu variables, consolidate
the state into a single structure.
Also clean up therm_throt_process(), use cleaner and more
understandable variable names and a clearer logic.
This, without changing the logic, makes the code more
streamlined, more readable and smaller as well:
text data bss dec hex filename
1487 169 4 1660 67c therm_throt.o.before

This patch is largely a straightforward conversion. One thing to note
is that the new macros use fewer separate output sections than the old
code; this should have no functional impact but is relevant for people
objdumping vmlinux files.
Also note that it moves the .data.init_task output sections inside
_edata.

Since these get squashed into the .data output section by the m32r
linker script, it seems likely that they don't need their own input
sections.
At Hirokazu Takata's suggestion, we place these structures in
.init.data rather than just placing them in .data (since they are only
used at init time).
This patch is preparation for cleaning up the m32r architecture to use
the new macros in vmlinux.lds.h; if these sections are indeed not
needed, then we can use the RW_DATA_SECTION macro for m32r and save a
bunch of redundant code.

It appears that m32r copied the .altinstructions definition from x86
when the architecture was first merged into Linux. m32r doesn't put
anything in .altinstructions, so this is just dead code.
The following block affecting .exit.text/.exit.data, which has a
comment also copied from x86, should also be deleted; the linker
script later discards the .exit.text and .exit.data sections.

Convert m68k to use GENERIC_TIME via the arch_getoffset() infrastructure,
reducing the amount of arch specific code we need to maintain.
I've taken my best swing at converting this, but I'm not 100% confident
I got it right. My cross-compiler is now out of date (gcc4.2) so I
wasn't able to check if it compiled. Any assistance from arch
maintainers or testers to get this merged would be great.

Add a flag for mmap that will be used to request a huge page region that
will look like anonymous memory to user space. This is accomplished by
using a file on the internal vfsmount. MAP_HUGETLB is a modifier of
MAP_ANONYMOUS and so must be specified with it. The region will behave
the same as a MAP_ANONYMOUS region using small pages.
The patch also adds the MAP_STACK flag, which was previously defined only
on some architectures but not on others. Since MAP_STACK is meant to be a
hint only, architectures can define it without assigning a specific
meaning to it.

Reinstate anonymous use of ZERO_PAGE to all architectures, not just to
those which __HAVE_ARCH_PTE_SPECIAL: as suggested by Nick Piggin.
Contrary to how I'd imagined it, there's nothing ugly about this, just a
zero_pfn test built into one or another block of vm_normal_page().
But the MIPS ZERO_PAGE-of-many-colours case demands is_zero_pfn() and
my_zero_pfn() inlines. Reinstate its mremap move_pte() shuffling of
ZERO_PAGEs we did from 2.6.17 to 2.6.19? Not unless someone shouts for
that: it would have to take vm_flags to weed out some cases.

Since alloc_bootmem() will never return inaccessible (via virtual
addressing) memory anyway, using the ..._low() variant only makes sense
when the physical address range of the allocated memory must fulfill
further constraints, espacially since on 64-bits (or more generally in all
cases where the pools the two variants allocate from are than the full
available range.
Probably the use in alloc_tce_table() could also be eliminated (based on
code inspection of pci-calgary_64.c), but that seems too risky given I
know nothing about that hardware and have no way to test it.

Sizing of memory allocations shouldn't depend on the number of physical
pages found in a system, as that generally includes (perhaps a huge amount
of) non-RAM pages. The amount of what actually is usable as storage
should instead be used as a basis here.
Some of the calculations (i.e. those not intending to use high memory)
should likely even use (totalram_pages - totalhigh_pages).

The out-of-tree KSM used ioctls on fds cloned from /dev/ksm to register a
memory area for merging: we prefer now to use an madvise(2) interface.
This patch just defines MADV_MERGEABLE (to tell KSM it may merge pages in
this area found identical to pages in other mergeable areas) and
MADV_UNMERGEABLE (to undo that).
Most architectures use asm-generic, but alpha, mips, parisc, xtensa need
their own definitions: included here for mmotm convenience, but we'll
probably want to split this and feed pieces to arch maintainers.
