51b58e3e26 [IA64] use machvec=dig on hpzx1 platforms
On HP zx1 machines, the 'machvec=dig' parameter is needed for the
kdump kernel to avoid problems with the HP sba iommu.  The problem
is that during the boot of the kdump kernel, the iommu is re-initialized,
so in-flight DMA from improperly shutdown drivers causes an IOTLB
miss which leads to an MCA.  With kdump, the idea is to get into the
kdump kernel with as little code as we can, so shutting down drivers
properly is not an option.

The workaround is to add 'machvec=dig' to the kdump kernel boot
parameters.  This makes the kdump kernel avoid using the sba iommu
altogether, leaving the IOTLB intact.  Any ongoing DMA falls
harmlessly outside the kdump kernel.  After the kdump kernel reboots,
all devices will have been shutdown properly and DMA stopped.

This patch pushes that functionality into the sba iommu
initialization code, so that users won't have to find the obscure
documentation telling them about 'machvec=dig'.

This patch only affects HP platforms.  It still includes one
extern declaration in the file, because no applicable header file
exists.

b68e31d0eb [PATCH] const struct tty_operations
As part of an SMP cleanliness pass over UML, I consted a bunch of
structures in order to not have to document their locking.  One of these
structures was a struct tty_operations.  In order to const it in UML
without introducing compiler complaints, the declaration of
tty_set_operations needs to be changed, and then all of its callers need to
be fixed.

This patch declares all struct tty_operations in the tree as const.  In all
cases, they are static and used only as input to tty_set_operations.  As an
extra check, I ran an i386 allyesconfig build which produced no extra
warnings.

53 drivers are affected.  I checked the history of a bunch of them, and in
most cases, there have been only a handful of maintenance changes in the
last six months.  serial_core.c was the busiest one that I looked at.

0b9afede3d [IA64] more robust zx1/sx1000 machvec support
Machine vector selection has always been a bit of a hack given how
early in system boot it needs to be done.  Services like ACPI namespace
are not available and there are non-trivial problems to moving them to
early boot.  However, there's no reason we can't change to a different
machvec later in boot when the services we need are available.  By
adding a entry point for later initialization of the swiotlb, we can add
an error path for the hpzx1 machevec initialization and fall back to the
DIG machine vector if IOMMU hardware isn't found in the system.  Since
ia64 uses 4GB for zone DMA (no ISA support), it's trivial to allocate a
contiguous range from the slab for bounce buffer usage.

Thanks to Stephane, we've now worked out the real cause of the
`Linux  will not boot on simulator' problem.  Turns out it's a stack
overflow because the stack pointer wasn't being initialised properly
in boot_head.S (it was being initialised to the lowest instead of the
highest address of the stack, so the first push started to overwrite
data in the BSS).

62d75f3753 [IA64] backout incorrect fix for simulator boot issue
Earlier fix in 4aec0fb122 just
masked the real problem.

4aec0fb122 [IA64] Simulator bootloader fails with gcc 4
After building a fresh tree with gcc 4 I can't boot the simulator as
the bootloader loader dies with 

loading /home/ianw/kerntest/kerncomp//build/sim_defconfig/vmlinux...
failed to read phdr

After some investigation I believe this is do with differences between
the alignment of variables on the stack between gcc 3 and 4 and the
ski simulator.  If you trace through with the simulator you can see
that the disk_stat structure value returned from the SSC_WAIT_COMPLETION
call seems to be only half loaded.  I guess it doesn't like the alignment
of the input.

3b5cc09033 [IA64] assign_irq_vector() should not panic
Current assign_irq_vector() will panic if interrupt vectors is running
out. But I think how to handle the case of lack of interrupt vectors
should be handled by the caller of this function. For example, some
PCI devices can raise the interrupt signal via both MSI and I/O
APIC. So even if the driver for these device fails to allocate a
vector for MSI, the driver still has a chance to use I/O APIC based
interrupt. But currently there is no chance for these driver to use
I/O APIC based interrupt because kernel will panic when
assign_irq_vector() fails to allocate interrupt vector.

The following patch changes assign_irq_vector() for ia64 to return
-ENOSPC on error instead of panic (as i386 and x86_64 versions do).
