Impact: cleanup

This patch moves set_highmem_pages_init() to arch/x86/mm/highmem_32.c.

The declaration of the function is kept in asm/numa_32.h because
asm/highmem.h is included only if CONFIG_HIGHMEM is enabled so we
can't put the empty static inline function there.

Impact: fix failed EFI bootup in certain circumstances

Ying Huang found init_memory_mapping() has problem with small ranges
less than 2M when he tried to direct map the EFI runtime code out of
max_low_pfn_mapped.

It turns out we never considered that case and didn't check the range...

2450cf51a1 Revert "menu: fix embedded menu snafu"
This reverts commit 155b25bcc2, which was
totally wrong - the "embedded" options still exists (very much so) even
on non-embedded platforms.

It's just that we don't bother with actually asking about them when
we're not embedded, we just take their default values (which is usually
'y' - the options add features that may not be worth it in a constrained
environment).

fda714c29c drm: Avoid client deadlocks when the master disappears.
This is done by
1) Wake up lock waiters when we close the master file descriptor.
   Not when the master structure is removed, since the latter
   requires the waiters themselves to release the refcount on the
   master structure -> Deadlock.
2) Send a SIGTERM to all clients waiting for the lock.
   Normally these clients will get a SIGPIPE when the X server dies,
   but clients may also spin trying to grab the DRM lock, without
   getting any sort of notification.

155b25bcc2 menu: fix embedded menu snafu
The COMPAT_BRK kconfig symbol does not depend on EMBEDDED, but it is in
the midst of the EMBEDDED menu symbols, so it mucks up the EMBEDDED
menu.  Fix by moving it to just after all of the EMBEDDED menu symbols.

Also, surround all of the EMBEDDED symbols with "if EMBEDDED"/"endif" so
that this EMBEDDED block is clearer.

5b1017404a x86-64: seccomp: fix 32/64 syscall hole
On x86-64, a 32-bit process (TIF_IA32) can switch to 64-bit mode with
ljmp, and then use the "syscall" instruction to make a 64-bit system
call.  A 64-bit process make a 32-bit system call with int $0x80.

In both these cases under CONFIG_SECCOMP=y, secure_computing() will use
the wrong system call number table.  The fix is simple: test TS_COMPAT
instead of TIF_IA32.  Here is an example exploit:

	/* test case for seccomp circumvention on x86-64

	   There are two failure modes: compile with -m64 or compile with -m32.

	   The -m64 case is the worst one, because it does "chmod 777 ." (could
	   be any chmod call).  The -m32 case demonstrates it was able to do
	   stat(), which can glean information but not harm anything directly.

	   A buggy kernel will let the test do something, print, and exit 1; a
	   fixed kernel will make it exit with SIGKILL before it does anything.

As described here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/2/20/265

The CAFE chip is broken due to commit e809517f6f.
Anton added a quirk here: http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/2/20/279 that fixes
CAFE's problem.  This adds the quirk for CAFE.

f945405cde sdhci: Add quirk for controllers with no end-of-busy IRQ
The Samsung SDHCI (and FSL eSDHC) controller block seems to fail
to generate an INT_DATA_END after the transfer has completed and
the bus busy state finished.

Changes in e809517f6f to use the
new busy method are the cause of the behaviour change.

9976b39b50 xen: deal with virtually mapped percpu data
The virtually mapped percpu space causes us two problems:

 - for hypercalls which take an mfn, we need to do a full pagetable
   walk to convert the percpu va into an mfn, and

 - when a hypercall requires a page to be mapped RO via all its aliases,
   we need to make sure its RO in both the percpu mapping and in the
   linear mapping

This primarily affects the gdt and the vcpu info structure.

389d1fb11e x86: unify chunks of kernel/process*.c
With x86-32 and -64 using the same mechanism for managing the
tss io permissions bitmap, large chunks of process*.c are
trivially unifyable, including:

 - exit_thread
 - flush_thread
 - __switch_to_xtra (along with tsc enable/disable)

and as bonus pickups:

 - sys_fork
 - sys_vfork

(Note: asmlinkage expands to empty on x86-64)

db949bba3c x86-32: use non-lazy io bitmap context switching
Impact: remove 32-bit optimization to prepare unification

x86-32 and -64 differ in the way they context-switch tasks
with io permission bitmaps.  x86-64 simply copies the next
tasks io bitmap into place (if any) on context switch.  x86-32
invalidates the bitmap on context switch, so that the next
IO instruction will fault; at that point it installs the
appropriate IO bitmap.

This makes context switching IO-bitmap-using tasks a bit more
less expensive, at the cost of making the next IO instruction
slower due to the extra fault.  This tradeoff only makes sense
if IO-bitmap-using processes are relatively common, but they
don't actually use IO instructions very often.

However, in a typical desktop system, the only process likely
to be using IO bitmaps is the X server, and nothing at all on
a server.  Therefore the lazy context switch doesn't really win
all that much, and its just a gratuitious difference from
64-bit code.

This patch removes the lazy context switch, with a view to
unifying this code in a later change.

Remove es7000_cpu_mask_to_apicid_cluster completely, because it's
almost the same as es7000_cpu_mask_to_apicid except 2 code paths.
One of them is about to be removed soon, the another should be
BAD_APICID (it's a fail path).

The _cluster one was not invoked on apic->cpu_mask_to_apicid_and
anyway, since there was no _cluster_and variant.

Also use newer cpumask functions.

f180053694 x86, mm: dont use non-temporal stores in pagecache accesses
Impact: standardize IO on cached ops

On modern CPUs it is almost always a bad idea to use non-temporal stores,
as the regression in this commit has shown it:

  30d697f: x86: fix performance regression in write() syscall

The kernel simply has no good information about whether using non-temporal
stores is a good idea or not - and trying to add heuristics only increases
complexity and inserts fragility.

The regression on cached write()s took very long to be found - over two
years. So dont take any chances and let the hardware decide how it makes
use of its caches.

The only exception is drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_gem.c: there were we are
absolutely sure that another entity (the GPU) will pick up the dirty
data immediately and that the CPU will not touch that data before the
GPU will.

Also, keep the _nocache() primitives to make it easier for people to
experiment with these details. There may be more clear-cut cases where
non-cached copies can be used, outside of filemap.c.
