This make four macros for the PrimeCell ID register available to
drivers that use them witout using the PrimeCell/AMBA bus
abstraction and struct amba_device. It also moves the magic
PrimeCell CID "B105F00D" to the bus.h header file.

This fixes a problem introduced with the hugetlb hwpoison handling
The user space SIGBUS signalling wants to know the size of the hugepage
that caused a HWPOISON fault.
Unfortunately the architecture page fault handlers do not have easy
access to the struct page.
Pass the information out in the fault error code instead.
I added a separate VM_FAULT_HWPOISON_LARGE bit for this case and encode
the hpage index in some free upper bits of the fault code. The small
page hwpoison keeps stays with the VM_FAULT_HWPOISON name to minimize
changes.
Also add code to hugetlb.h to convert that index into a page shift.
Will be used in a further patch.

This patch extends page migration code to support hugepage migration.
One of the potential users of this feature is soft offlining which
is triggered by memory corrected errors (added by the next patch.)
Todo:
- there are other users of page migration such as memory policy,
memory hotplug and memocy compaction.
They are not ready for hugepage support for now.
ChangeLog since v4:
- define migrate_huge_pages()
- remove changes on isolation/putback_lru_page()
ChangeLog since v2:
- refactor isolate/putback_lru_page() to handle hugepage
- add comment about race on unmap_and_move_huge_page()
ChangeLog since v1:
- divide migration code path for hugepage
- define routine checking migration swap entry for hugetlb
- replace "goto" with "if/else" in remove_migration_pte()

This patch modifies hugepage copy functions to have only destination
and source hugepages as arguments for later use.
The old ones are renamed from copy_{gigantic,huge}_page() to
copy_user_{gigantic,huge}_page().
This naming convention is consistent with that between copy_highpage()
and copy_user_highpage().
ChangeLog since v4:
- add blank line between local declaration and code
- remove unnecessary might_sleep()
ChangeLog since v2:
- change copy_huge_page() from macro to inline dummy function
to avoid compile warning when !CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE.

We can't use existing hugepage allocation functions to allocate hugepage
for page migration, because page migration can happen asynchronously with
the running processes and page migration users should call the allocation
function with physical addresses (not virtual addresses) as arguments.
ChangeLog since v3:
- unify alloc_buddy_huge_page() and alloc_buddy_huge_page_node()
ChangeLog since v2:
- remove unnecessary get/put_mems_allowed() (thanks to David Rientjes)

This patch creates a new idmapper system that uses the request-key function to
place a call into userspace to map user and group ids to names. The old
idmapper was single threaded, which prevented more than one request from running
at a single time. This means that a user would have to wait for an upcall to
finish before accessing a cached result.
The upcall result is stored on a keyring of type id_resolver. See the file
Documentation/filesystems/nfs/idmapper.txt for instructions.

Now that the generic DMAEngine API has support for scatterlist to
scatterlist copying, the device_prep_slave_sg() portion of the
DMA_SLAVE API is no longer necessary and has been removed.
However, the device_control() portion of the DMA_SLAVE API is still
useful to control device specific parameters, such as externally
controlled DMA transfers and maximum burst length.
A special dma_ctrl_cmd has been added to enable externally controlled
DMA transfers. This is currently specific to the Freescale DMA
controller, but can easily be made generic when another user is found.

This adds support for scatterlist to scatterlist DMA transfers. A
similar interface is exposed by the fsldma driver (through the DMA_SLAVE
API) and by the ste_dma40 driver (through an exported function).

of the generic DMAEngine API. Futher patches will add support in
individual drivers.

Fix the IRQ flag handling naming. In linux/irqflags.h under one configuration,
it maps:
local_irq_enable() -> raw_local_irq_enable()
local_irq_disable() -> raw_local_irq_disable()
local_irq_save() -> raw_local_irq_save()
...
and under the other configuration, it maps:
raw_local_irq_enable() -> local_irq_enable()
raw_local_irq_disable() -> local_irq_disable()
raw_local_irq_save() -> local_irq_save()
...
This is quite confusing. There should be one set of names expected of the
arch, and this should be wrapped to give another set of names that are expected
by users of this facility.
Change this to have the arch provide:
flags = arch_local_save_flags()
flags = arch_local_irq_save()
arch_local_irq_restore(flags)
arch_local_irq_disable()
arch_local_irq_enable()
arch_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
arch_irqs_disabled()
arch_safe_halt()
Then linux/irqflags.h wraps these to provide:
raw_local_save_flags(flags)
raw_local_irq_save(flags)
raw_local_irq_restore(flags)
raw_local_irq_disable()
raw_local_irq_enable()
raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
raw_irqs_disabled()
raw_safe_halt()
with type checking on the flags 'arguments', and then wraps those to provide:
local_save_flags(flags)
local_irq_save(flags)
local_irq_restore(flags)
local_irq_disable()
local_irq_enable()
irqs_disabled_flags(flags)
irqs_disabled()
safe_halt()
with tracing included if enabled.
The arch functions can now all be inline functions rather than some of them
having to be macros.

2.6.36 introduces an API for drivers to switch the IO scheduler
instead of manually calling the elevator exit and init functions.
This API was added since q->elevator must be cleared in between
those two calls. And since we already have this functionality
directly from use by the sysfs interface to switch schedulers
online, it was prudent to reuse it internally too.
But this API needs the queue to be in a fully initialized state
before it is called, or it will attempt to unregister elevator
kobjects before they have been added. This results in an oops
like this:

prepared the transfer is started using the dma_async_descriptor->tx_submit

While being used for cyclic transfers the channel cannot be used

In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we
drop it before it enters protocol stack :
- softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat)
- bad vlan tag (not accounted)
- unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted)
We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level,
and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so
that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev)
This is a generalization of commit 8990f468a (net: rx_dropped
accounting), thus reverting it.

With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.
However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling. That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.
Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.
So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.
Future fixups:
- move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
belongs.
- get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
(called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
for other reasons.

The documentation for NL80211_CMD_REMAIN_ON_CHANNEL
isn't accurate, an interface index is required by
the command. Update it accordingly.

smbfs has been scheduled for removal in 2.6.27, so
maybe we can now move it to drivers/staging on the
way out.
smbfs still uses the big kernel lock and nobody
is going to fix that, so we should be getting
rid of it soon.
This removes the 32 bit compat mount and ioctl
handling code, which is implemented in common fs
code, and moves all smbfs related files into
drivers/staging/smbfs.

This splits up the sh intc core in to something more vaguely resembling
a subsystem. Most of the functionality was alread fairly well
compartmentalized, and there were only a handful of interdependencies
that needed to be resolved in the process.
This also serves as future-proofing for the genirq and sparseirq rework,
which will make some of the split out functionality wholly generic,
allowing things to be killed off in place with minimal migration pain.

If lookups happen while the radix node still points to a subgroup
mapping, an IRQ hasn't yet been made available for the specified id, so
error out accordingly. Once the slot is replaced with an IRQ mapping and
the tag is discarded, lookup can commence as normal.

This prepares the removal of the big kernel lock from the
file locking code. We still use the BKL as long as fs/lockd
uses it and ceph might sleep, but we can flip the definition
to a private spinlock as soon as that's done.
All users outside of fs/lockd get converted to use
lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel() where appropriate.
Based on an earlier patch to use a spinlock from Matthew
Wilcox, who has attempted this a few times before, the
earliest patch from over 10 years ago turned it into
a semaphore, which ended up being slower than the BKL
and was subsequently reverted.
Someone should do some serious performance testing when
this becomes a spinlock, since this has caused problems
before. Using a spinlock should be at least as good
as the BKL in theory, but who knows...

rtnl_dereference() is used in contexts where RTNL is held, to fetch an
RCU protected pointer.
Updates to this pointer are prevented by RTNL, so we dont need
smp_read_barrier_depends() and the ACCESS_ONCE() provided in
rcu_dereference_check().
rtnl_dereference() is mainly a macro to document the locking invariant.

ingress being not used very much, and net_device->ingress_queue being
quite a big object (128 or 256 bytes), use a dynamic allocation if
needed (tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress ...)
dev_ingress_queue(dev) helper should be used only with RTNL taken.

Many interrupts that share a single mask source but are on different
hardware vectors will have an associated register tied to an INTEVT that
denotes the precise cause for the interrupt exception being triggered.
This introduces the concept of IRQ subgroups in the intc core, where
a virtual IRQ map is constructed for each of the pre-defined cause bits,
and a higher level chained handler takes control of the parent INTEVT.
This enables CPUs with heavily muxed IRQ vectors (especially across
disjoint blocks) to break things out in to a series of managed chained
handlers while being able to dynamically lookup and adopt the IRQs
created for them.
This is largely an opt-in interface, requiring CPUs to manually submit
IRQs for subgroup splitting, in addition to providing identifiers in
their enum maps that can be used for lazy lookup via the radix tree.

Dozen of changes in ncpfs to provide some locking other than BKL.
In readdir cache unlock and mark complete first page as last operation,
so it can be used for synchronization, as code intended.
When updating dentry name on case insensitive filesystems do at least
some basic locking...
Hold i_mutex when updating inode fields.
Push some ncp_conn_is_valid down to ncp_request. Connection can become
invalid at any moment, and fewer error code paths to test the better.
Use i_size_{read,write} to modify file size.
Set inode's backing_dev_info as ncpfs has its own special bdi.
In ioctl unbreak ioctls invoked on filesystem mounted 'ro' - tests are
for inode writeable or owner match, but were turned to filesystem
writeable and inode writeable or owner match. Also collect all permission
checks in single place.
Add some locking, and remove comments saying that it would be cool to
add some locks to the code.
Constify some pointers.
