f85ff3056c Begin to consolidate of_device.c
This moves all the common parts for the Sparc, Sparc64 and PowerPC
of_device.c files into drivers/of/device.c.

Apart from the simple move, Sparc gains of_match_node() and a call to
of_node_put in of_release_dev().  PowerPC gains better recovery if
device_create_file() fails in of_device_register().

1ef4d4242d Consolidate of_find_node_by routines
This consolidates the routines of_find_node_by_path, of_find_node_by_name,
of_find_node_by_type and of_find_compatible_device.  Again, the comparison
of strings are done differently by Sparc and PowerPC and also these add
read_locks around the iterations.

The only change here is that a readlock is taken while the property list
is being traversed on Sparc where it was not taken previously.

20c2df83d2 mm: Remove slab destructors from kmem_cache_create().
Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f22 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

5fb7dc37dc define new percpu interface for shared data
per cpu data section contains two types of data.  One set which is
exclusively accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu,
but also shared by remote cpus.  In the current kernel, these two sets are
not clearely separated out.  This can potentially cause the same data
cacheline shared between the two sets of data, which will result in
unnecessary bouncing of the cacheline between cpus.

One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per
cpu data, both at the beginning and at the end.  Because of the padding at
both ends, this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the
interface to achieve this is not clean.

This patch:

Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

4f0234f4f9 [SPARC64]: Initial LDOM cpu hotplug support.
Only adding cpus is supports at the moment, removal
will come next.

When new cpus are configured, the machine description is
updated.  When we get the configure request we pass in a
cpu mask of to-be-added cpus to the mdesc CPU node parser
so it only fetches information for those cpus.  That code
also proceeds to update the SMT/multi-core scheduling bitmaps.

cpu_up() does all the work and we return the status back
over the DS channel.

CPUs via dr-cpu need to be booted straight out of the
hypervisor, and this requires:

1) A new trampoline mechanism.  CPUs are booted straight
   out of the hypervisor with MMU disabled and running in
   physical addresses with no mappings installed in the TLB.

   The new hvtramp.S code sets up the critical cpu state,
   installs the locked TLB mappings for the kernel, and
   turns the MMU on.  It then proceeds to follow the logic
   of the existing trampoline.S SMP cpu bringup code.

2) All calls into OBP have to be disallowed when domaining
   is enabled.  Since cpus boot straight into the kernel from
   the hypervisor, OBP has no state about that cpu and therefore
   cannot handle being invoked on that cpu.

   Luckily it's only a handful of interfaces which can be called
   after the OBP device tree is obtained.  For example, rebooting,
   halting, powering-off, and setting options node variables.

CPU removal support will require some infrastructure changes
here.  Namely we'll have to process the requests via a true
kernel thread instead of in a workqueue.  workqueues run on
a per-cpu thread, but when unconfiguring we might need to
force the thread to execute on another cpu if the current cpu
is the one being removed.  Removal of a cpu also causes the kernel
to destroy that cpu's workqueue running thread.

Another issue on removal is that we may have interrupts still
pointing to the cpu-to-be-removed.  So new code will be needed
to walk the active INO list and retarget those cpus as-needed.

43fdf27470 [SPARC64]: Abstract out mdesc accesses for better MD update handling.
Since we have to be able to handle MD updates, having an in-tree
set of data structures representing the MD objects actually makes
things more painful.

The MD itself is easy to parse, and we can implement the existing
interfaces using direct parsing of the MD binary image.

The MD is now reference counted, so accesses have to now take the
form:

	handle = mdesc_grab();

	... operations on MD ...

	mdesc_release(handle);

The only remaining issue are cases where code holds on to references
to MD property values.  mdesc_get_property() returns a direct pointer
to the property value, most cases just pull in the information they
need and discard the pointer, but there are few that use the pointer
directly over a long lifetime.  Those will be fixed up in a subsequent
changeset.

A preliminary handler for MD update events from domain services is
there, it is rudimentry but it works and handles all of the reference
counting.  It does not check the generation number of the MDs,
and it does not generate a "add/delete" list for notification to
interesting parties about MD changes but that will be forthcoming.

cb48123584 [SPARC64]: Assorted LDC bug cures.
1) LDC_MODE_RELIABLE is deprecated an unused by anything, plus

2) read_stream() should try to read as much as possible into

   length by the caller's size parameter.

3) Send data ACKs when necessary in read_nonraw().

4) In read_nonraw() when we get a pure ACK, advance the RX head
   unconditionally past it.

5) Provide the ACKID field in the ldcdgb() packet dump in read_nonraw().
   This helps debugging stream mode LDC channel problems.

6) Decrease verbosity of rx_data_wait() so that it is more useful.
   A debugging message each loop iteration is too much.

   not lp->tx_head.

5a606b72a4 [SPARC64]: Do not ACK an INO if it is disabled or inprogress.
This is also a partial workaround for a bug in the LDOM firmware which
double-transmits RX inos during high load.  Without this, such an
event causes the kernel to loop forever in the interrupt call chain
ACK'ing but never actually running the IRQ handler (and thus clearing
the interrupt condition in the device).

There is still a bad potential effect when double INOs occur,
not covered by this changeset.  Namely, if the INO is already on
the per-cpu INO vector list, we still blindly re-insert it and
thus we can end up losing interrupts already linked in after
it.

We could deal with that by traversing the list before insertion,
but that's too expensive for this edge case.

e53e97ce3c [SPARC64]: Add LDOM virtual channel driver and VIO device layer.
Virtual devices on Sun Logical Domains are built on top
of a virtual channel framework.  This, with help of hypervisor
interfaces, provides a link layer protocol with basic
handshaking over which virtual device clients and servers
communicate.

Built on top of this is a VIO device protocol which has it's
own handshaking and message types.  At this layer attributes
are exchanged (disk size, network device addresses, etc.)
descriptor rings are registered, and data transfers are
triggers and replied to.

36e235901f PCI: Only build PCI syscalls on architectures that want them
The PCI syscalls are built on every architecture except X86, but only
a few have ever hooked them up.  Use a new Kconfig symbol to save a
couple of kB on the architectures that have never used the syscalls.
Tested on x86 and ia64 only.

b8a3a5214d PCI: read revision ID by default
Currently there are 97 occurrences where drivers need the pci
revision ID. We can do this once for all devices. Even the pci
subsystem needs the revision several times for quirks. The extra
u8 member pads out nicely in the pci_dev struct.

0437e109e1 sched: zap the migration init / cache-hot balancing code
the SMP load-balancer uses the boot-time migration-cost estimation
code to attempt to improve the quality of balancing. The reason for
this code is that the discrete priority queues do not preserve
the order of scheduling accurately, so the load-balancer skips
tasks that were running on a CPU 'recently'.

this code is fundamental fragile: the boot-time migration cost detector
doesnt really work on systems that had large L3 caches, it caused boot
delays on large systems and the whole cache-hot concept made the
balancing code pretty undeterministic as well.

(and hey, i wrote most of it, so i can say it out loud that it sucks ;-)

under CFS the same purpose of cache affinity can be achieved without
any special cache-hot special-case: tasks are sorted in the 'timeline'
tree and the SMP balancer picks tasks from the left side of the
tree, thus the most cache-cold task is balanced automatically.
