ia64_mca_cpu_init has a void *data local variable that is assigned
the value from either __get_free_pages() or mca_bootmem(). The problem
is that __get_free_pages returns an unsigned long and mca_bootmem, via
alloc_bootmem(), returns a void *. format_mca_init_stack takes the void *,
and it's also used with __pa(), but that casts it to long anyway.
This results in the following build warning:
arch/ia64/kernel/mca.c:1898: warning: assignment makes pointer from
integer without a cast
Cast the return of __get_free_pages to a void * to avoid
the warning.

Merge do_suspend_lowlevel() into the x86's acpi_save_state_mem() and
change the name of the latter to acpi_suspend_lowlevel(), so that the

[IA64] Avoid array overflow if there are too many cpus in SRAT table
Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
Having four variables for the same thing:
idle_halt, idle_nomwait, force_mwait and boot_option_idle_overrides
is rather confusing and unnecessary complex.
if idle= boot param is passed, only set up one variable:
boot_option_idle_overrides
Introduces following functional changes/fixes:
- intel_idle driver does not register if any idle=xy
boot param is passed.
- processor_idle.c will also not register a cpuidle driver
and get active if idle=halt is passed.
Before a cpuidle driver with one (C1, halt) state got registered
Now the default_idle function will be used which finally uses
the same idle call to enter sleep state (safe_halt()), but
without registering a whole cpuidle driver.
That means idle= param will always avoid cpuidle drivers to register
with one exception (same behavior as before):
idle=nomwait
may still register acpi_idle cpuidle driver, but C1 will not use
mwait, but hlt. This can be a workaround for IO based deeper sleep
states where C1 mwait causes problems.

The problem that this patch aims to fix is vfsmount refcounting scalability.
We need to take a reference on the vfsmount for every successful path lookup,
which often go to the same mount point.
The fundamental difficulty is that a "simple" reference count can never be made
scalable, because any time a reference is dropped, we must check whether that
was the last reference. To do that requires communication with all other CPUs
that may have taken a reference count.
We can make refcounts more scalable in a couple of ways, involving keeping
distributed counters, and checking for the global-zero condition less
frequently.
- check the global sum once every interval (this will delay zero detection
for some interval, so it's probably a showstopper for vfsmounts).
- keep a local count and only taking the global sum when local reaches 0 (this
is difficult for vfsmounts, because we can't hold preempt off for the life of
a reference, so a counter would need to be per-thread or tied strongly to a
particular CPU which requires more locking).
- keep a local difference of increments and decrements, which allows us to sum
the total difference and hence find the refcount when summing all CPUs. Then,
keep a single integer "long" refcount for slow and long lasting references,
and only take the global sum of local counters when the long refcount is 0.
This last scheme is what I implemented here. Attached mounts and process root
and working directory references are "long" references, and everything else is
a short reference.
This allows scalable vfsmount references during path walking over mounted
subtrees and unattached (lazy umounted) mounts with processes still running
in them.
This results in one fewer atomic op in the fastpath: mntget is now just a
per-CPU inc, rather than an atomic inc; and mntput just requires a spinlock
and non-atomic decrement in the common case. However code is otherwise bigger
and heavier, so single threaded performance is basically a wash.

Reduce some branches and memory accesses in dcache lookup by adding dentry
flags to indicate common d_ops are set, rather than having to check them.
This saves a pointer memory access (dentry->d_op) in common path lookup
situations, and saves another pointer load and branch in cases where we
have d_op but not the particular operation.
Patched with:
git grep -E '[.>]([[:space:]])*d_op([[:space:]])*=' | xargs sed -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)->d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\1, \2);/' -e 's/\([^\t ]*\)\.d_op = \(.*\);/d_set_d_op(\&\1, \2);/' -i

* 'llseek' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/bkl:
vfs: make no_llseek the default
vfs: don't use BKL in default_llseek
llseek: automatically add .llseek fop
libfs: use generic_file_llseek for simple_attr
mac80211: disallow seeks in minstrel debug code
lirc: make chardev nonseekable
viotape: use noop_llseek
raw: use explicit llseek file operations
ibmasmfs: use generic_file_llseek
spufs: use llseek in all file operations
arm/omap: use generic_file_llseek in iommu_debug
lkdtm: use generic_file_llseek in debugfs
net/wireless: use generic_file_llseek in debugfs
drm: use noop_llseek
All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.
The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.
The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

Thomas Gleixner is cleaning up the generic irq code, and ia64 ran

As a bonus - moving the call later means we no longer need the

Mostly trivial stuff for this. The only tricky part was realizing
that the new handler_*_irq() paths do not use desc->chip->end(irq).
Not a problem for the edge case as the ia64 iosapic routine for
that was nop(). But the "level" case handled interrupt migration
there. Just use a slightly modified version of the "end" routine
as "unmask" for the level triggered case.

When ia64 converted to using ticket locks, an inline implementation
of trylock/unlock in fsys.S was missed. This was not noticed because
in most circumstances it simply resulted in using the slow path because
the siglock was apparently not available (under old spinlock rules).
Problems occur when the ticket spinlock has value 0x0 (when first
initialised, or when it wraps around). At this point the fsys.S
code acquires the lock (changing the 0x0 to 0x1. If another process
attempts to get the lock at this point, it will change the value from
0x1 to 0x2 (using new ticket lock rules). Then the fsys.S code will
free the lock using old spinlock rules by writing 0x0 to it. From
here a variety of bad things can happen.

Make do_execve() take a const filename pointer so that kernel_execve() compiles
correctly on ARM:
arch/arm/kernel/sys_arm.c:88: warning: passing argument 1 of 'do_execve' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
This also requires the argv and envp arguments to be consted twice, once for
the pointer array and once for the strings the array points to. This is
because do_execve() passes a pointer to the filename (now const) to
copy_strings_kernel(). A simpler alternative would be to cast the filename
pointer in do_execve() when it's passed to copy_strings_kernel().
do_execve() may not change any of the strings it is passed as part of the argv
or envp lists as they are some of them in .rodata, so marking these strings as
const should be fine.
Further kernel_execve() and sys_execve() need to be changed to match.
This has been test built on x86_64, frv, arm and mips.
