77c0a700c1 powerpc: Properly start decrementer on BookE secondary CPUs
This moves the code to start the decrementer on 40x and BookE into
a separate function which is now called from time_init() and
secondary_time_init(), before the respective clock sources are
registered. We also remove the 85xx specific code for doing it
from the platform code.

89c2dd62a3 powerpc/pci: Pull ppc32 PCI features into common
Some of the PCI features we have in ppc32 we will need on ppc64
platforms in the future.  These include support for:

* ppc_md.pci_exclude_device
* indirect config cycles
* early config cycles

We also simplified the logic in fake_pci_bus() to assume it will always
get a valid pci_controller.  Since all current callers seem to pass it
one.

fbe6544719 powerpc/pci: move pci_64.c device tree scanning code into pci-common.c
The PCI device tree scanning code in pci_64.c is some useful functionality.
It allows PCI devices to be described in the device tree instead of being
probed for, which in turn allows pci devices to use all of the device tree
facilities to describe complex PCI bus architectures like GPIO and IRQ
routing (perhaps not a common situation for desktop or server systems,
but useful for embedded systems with on-board PCI devices).

This patch moves the device tree scanning into pci-common.c so it is
available for 32-bit powerpc machines too.

We now search through TLBnCFG looking for the first array that has IPROT
support (we assume that there is only one).  If that TLB has hardware
entry select (HES) support we use the existing code and with the proper
TLB select (the HES code still needs to clean up bolted entries from
firmware).  The non-HES code is pretty similiar to the 32-bit FSL Book-E
code but does make some new assumtions (like that we have tlbilx) and
simplifies things down a bit.

6776426320 powerpc/pseries: Reduce the polling interval in __cpu_up()
Time time taken for a single cpu online operation on a pseries machine
is as follows:
Dedicated LPAR (POWER6): ~220ms.
Shared LPAR (POWER5)   : ~240ms.

Of this time, approximately 200ms is taken up by __cpu_up(). This is because
we poll every 200ms to check if the new cpu has notified it's presence
through the cpu_callin_map. We repeat this operation until the new cpu sets
the value in cpu_callin_map or 5 seconds elapse, whichever comes earlier.

However, using completion_structs instead of polling loops,
the time taken by the new processor to indicate it's presence has
found to be less than 1ms on pseries. This method however may not
work on all powerpc platforms due to the time-base synchronization code.

Keeping this in mind, we could reduce msleep polling interval from
200ms to 1ms while retaining the 5 second timeout.

With this, the time taken for a cpu online operation changes as follows:
Dedicated LPAR (POWER6): 20-25ms.
Shared LPAR (POWER5)   : 60-80ms.

In both these cases, it was found that the code polls through the loop
only once indicating that 1ms is a reasonable value, atleast on pseries.

The code needs testing on other powerpc platforms.

14d757520a powerpc: Fix __flush_icache_range on 44x
The ptrace POKETEXT interface allows a process to modify the text pages of
a child process being ptraced, usually to insert breakpoints via trap
instructions.  The kernel eventually calls copy_to_user_page, which in turn
calls __flush_icache_range to invalidate the icache lines for the child
process.

However, this function does not work on 44x due to the icache being virtually
indexed.  This was noticed by a breakpoint being triggered after it had been
cleared by ltrace on a 440EPx board.  The convenient solution is to do a
flash invalidate of the icache in the __flush_icache_range function.

ea3cc330ac powerpc/mm: Cleanup handling of execute permission
This is an attempt at cleaning up a bit the way we handle execute
permission on powerpc. _PAGE_HWEXEC is gone, _PAGE_EXEC is now only
defined by CPUs that can do something with it, and the myriad of
#ifdef's in the I$/D$ coherency code is reduced to 2 cases that
hopefully should cover everything.

The logic on BookE is a little bit different than what it was though
not by much. Since now, _PAGE_EXEC will be set by the generic code
for executable pages, we need to filter out if they are unclean and
recover it. However, I don't expect the code to be more bloated than
it already was in that area due to that change.

I could boast that this brings proper enforcing of per-page execute
permissions to all BookE and 40x but in fact, we've had that now for
some time as a side effect of my previous rework in that area (and
I didn't even know it :-) We would only enable execute permission if
the page was cache clean and we would only cache clean it if we took
and exec fault. Since we now enforce that the later only work if
VM_EXEC is part of the VMA flags, we de-fact already enforce per-page
execute permissions... Unless I missed something

d8ed1d43e1 sparc64: Validate linear D-TLB misses.
When page alloc debugging is not enabled, we essentially accept any
virtual address for linear kernel TLB misses.  But with kgdb, kernel
address probing, and other facilities we can try to access arbitrary
crap.

So, make sure the address we miss on will translate to physical memory
that actually exists.

In order to make this work we have to embed the valid address bitmap
into the kernel image.  And in order to make that less expensive we
make an adjustment, in that the max physical memory address is
decreased to "1 << 41", even on the chips that support a 42-bit
physical address space.  We can do this because bit 41 indicates
"I/O space" and thus covers non-memory ranges.

The result of this is that:

1) kpte_linear_bitmap shrinks from 2K to 1K in size

2) we need 64K more for the valid address bitmap

We can't let the valid address bitmap be dynamically allocated
once we start using it to validate TLB misses, otherwise we have
crazy issues to deal with wrt. recursive TLB misses and such.

If we're in a TLB miss it could be the deepest trap level that's legal
inside of the cpu.  So if we TLB miss referencing the bitmap, the cpu
will be out of trap levels and enter RED state.

To guard against out-of-range accesses to the bitmap, we have to check
to make sure no bits in the physical address above bit 40 are set.  We
could export and use last_valid_pfn for this check, but that's just an
unnecessary extra memory reference.

On the plus side of all this, since we load all of these translations
into the special 4MB mapping TSB, and we check the TSB first for TLB
misses, there should be absolutely no real cost for these new checks
in the TLB miss path.

5c58ceff10 tty: make sure to flush any pending work when halting the ldisc
When I rewrote tty ldisc code to use proper reference counts (commits
65b770468e and cbe9352fa0) in order to avoid a race with hangup, the
test-program that Eric Biederman used to trigger the original problem
seems to have exposed another long-standing bug: the hangup code did the
'tty_ldisc_halt()' to stop any buffer flushing activity, but unlike the
other call sites it never actually flushed any pending work.

As a result, if you get just the right timing, the pending work may be
just about to execute (ie the timer has already triggered and thus
cancel_delayed_work() was a no-op), when we then re-initialize the ldisc
from under it.

That, in turn, results in various random problems, usually seen as a
NULL pointer dereference in run_timer_softirq() or a BUG() in
worker_thread (but it can be almost anything).

Fix it by adding the required 'flush_scheduled_work()' after doing the
tty_ldisc_halt() (this also requires us to move the ldisc halt to before
taking the ldisc mutex in order to avoid a deadlock with the workqueue
executing do_tty_hangup, which requires the mutex).

The locking should be cleaned up one day (the requirement to do this
outside the ldisc_mutex is very annoying, and weakens the lock), but
that's a larger and separate undertaking.

9b9d401b8d powerpc/85xx: Add QE USB support for MPC8569E-MDS boards
- Add gpio-controller node for BCSR17, it is used to control USB
  speed and VBUS;
- Add timer node for QE GTM, needed for USB host;
- Add usb node itself;
- Add some probing code for BCSR GPIOs.

NOTE: QE USB doesn't work on prototype boards, but should work on
      pilot boards if specs and schematics are correct, though we
      don't have the pilot boards to actually test it.

a70e88bc78 powerpc/82xx: Fix BCSR bits for MPC8272ADS boards
mpc8272_ads.c is using BCSR bits definitions from pq2ads.h, but
according to User's Guide the bits are wrong for MPC8272ADS boards
(I guess definitions from pq2ads should only be used for PQ2FADS
boards).

So, let's introduce our own definitions for MPC8272ADS, and don't
include pq2ads.h.

ec80fb2d89 powerpc/85xx: Add eSDHC support for MPC8536DS boards
This patch simply adds sdhci node to the device tree.

We specify clock-frequency manually, so that eSDHC will work without
upgrading U-Boot. Though, that'll only work for default setup (1500
MHz) on new board revisions. For non-default setups, it's recommended
to upgrade U-Boot, since it will fixup clock-frequency automatically.

c62e43202e x86: Fix build with older binutils and consolidate linker script
binutils prior to 2.17 can't deal with the currently possible
situation of a new segment following the per-CPU segment, but
that new segment being empty - objcopy misplaces the .bss (and
perhaps also the .brk) sections outside of any segment.

However, the current ordering of sections really just appears
to be the effect of cumulative unrelated changes; re-ordering
things allows to easily guarantee that the segment following
the per-CPU one is non-empty, and at once eliminates the need
for the bogus data.init2 segment.

Once touching this code, also use the various data section
helper macros from include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h.

-v2: fix !SMP builds.
