c20b5c3318 x86, earlyprintk: Add earlyprintk for Intel Moorestown platform
Intel Moorestown platform has a spi-uart device(Maxim3110),
which connects to a Designware spi core controller. This patch
will add early console function based on it.

As it will be used long before Linux spi subsystem get
initialised, we simply directly manipulate the spi controller's
register to acheive the early console func. This is safe as it
will be disabled when devices subsytem get initialised.

To use it, user need enable CONFIG_X86_MRST_EARLY_PRINTK in
kenrel config and add "earlyprintk=mrst" in kernel command line.

9f4c13964b x86, memblock: Fix crashkernel allocation
Cai Qian found crashkernel is broken with the x86 memblock changes.

1. crashkernel=128M@32M always reported that range is used, even if
   the first kernel is small and does not usethat range

2. we always got following report when using "kexec -p"
	Could not find a free area of memory of a000 bytes...
	locate_hole failed

The root cause is that generic memblock_find_in_range() will try to
allocate from the top of the range, whereas the kexec code was written
assuming that allocation was always near the bottom and that it could
blindly extend memory upward.  Unfortunately the kexec code doesn't
have a system for requesting the range that it really needs, so this
is subject to probabilistic failures.

This patch hacks around the problem by limiting the target range
heuristically to below the traditional bzImage max range.  This number
is arbitrary and not always correct, and a much better result would be
obtained by having kexec communicate this number based on the kernel
header information and any appropriate command line options.

5336377d62 modules: Fix module_bug_list list corruption race
With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.

However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling.  That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.

Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.

So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.

Future fixups:
 - move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
   belongs.
 - get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
   (called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
   for other reasons.

3fdbf004c1 x86, mtrr: Assume SYS_CFG[Tom2ForceMemTypeWB] exists on all future AMD CPUs
Instead of adapting the CPU family check in amd_special_default_mtrr()
for each new CPU family assume that all new AMD CPUs support the
necessary bits in SYS_CFG MSR.

Tom2Enabled is architectural (defined in APM Vol.2).
Tom2ForceMemTypeWB is defined in all BKDGs starting with K8 NPT.
In pre K8-NPT BKDG this bit is reserved (read as zero).

W/o this adaption Linux would unnecessarily complain about bad MTRR
settings on every new AMD CPU family, e.g.

[    0.000000] WARNING: BIOS bug: CPU MTRRs don't cover all of memory, losing 4863MB of RAM.

6554287b1d x86, vm86: Fix preemption bug for int1 debug and int3 breakpoint handlers.
Impact: fix kernel bug such as:
BUG: scheduling while atomic: dosemu.bin/19680/0x00000004
See also Ubuntu bug 455067 at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/455067

Commits 4915a35e35a037254550a2ba9f367a812bc37d40
("Use preempt_conditional_sti/cli in do_int3, like on x86_64.")
and 3d2a71a596bd9c761c8487a2178e95f8a61da083
("x86, traps: converge do_debug handlers")
started disabling preemption in int1 and int3 handlers on i386.
The problem with vm86 is that the call to handle_vm86_trap() may jump
straight to entry_32.S and never returns so preempt is never enabled
again, and there is an imbalance in the preempt count.

Commit be716615fe596ee117292dc615e95f707fb67fd1 ("x86, vm86:
fix preemption bug"), which was later (accidentally?) reverted by commit
08d68323d1f0c34452e614263b212ca556dae47f ("hw-breakpoints: modifying
generic debug exception to use thread-specific debug registers")
fixed the problem for debug exceptions but not for breakpoints.

There are three solutions to this problem.

1. Reenable preemption before calling handle_vm86_trap(). This
was the approach that was later reverted.

2. Do not disable preemption for i386 in breakpoint and debug handlers.
This was the situation before October 2008. As far as I understand
preemption only needs to be disabled on x86_64 because a seperate stack is
used, but it's nice to have things work the same way on
i386 and x86_64.

3. Let handle_vm86_trap() return instead of jumping to assembly code.
By setting a flag in _TIF_WORK_MASK, either TIF_IRET or TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME,
the code in entry_32.S is instructed to return to 32 bit mode from
V86 mode. The logic in entry_32.S was already present to handle signals.
(I chose TIF_IRET because it's slightly more efficient in
do_notify_resume() in signal.c, but in fact TIF_IRET can probably be
replaced by TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME everywhere.)

I'm submitting approach 3, because I believe it is the most elegant
and prevents future confusion. Still, an obvious
preempt_conditional_cli(regs); is necessary in traps.c to correct the
bug.

[ hpa: This is technically a regression, but because:
  1. the regression is so old,
  2. the patch seems relatively high risk, justifying more testing, and
  3. we're late in the 2.6.36-rc cycle,

  I'm queuing it up for the 2.6.37 merge window.  It might, however,
  justify as a -stable backport at a latter time, hence Cc: stable. ]

04e0463e08 x86/amd-iommu: Fix rounding-bug in __unmap_single
In the __unmap_single function the dma_addr is rounded down
to a page boundary before the dma pages are unmapped. The
address is later also used to flush the TLB entries for that
mapping. But without the offset into the dma page the amount
of pages to flush might be miscalculated in the TLB flushing
path. This patch fixes this bug by using the original
address to flush the TLB.

4c894f47bb x86/amd-iommu: Work around S3 BIOS bug
This patch adds a workaround for an IOMMU BIOS problem to
the AMD IOMMU driver. The result of the bug is that the
IOMMU does not execute commands anymore when the system
comes out of the S3 state resulting in system failure. The
bug in the BIOS is that is does not restore certain hardware
specific registers correctly. This workaround reads out the
contents of these registers at boot time and restores them
on resume from S3. The workaround is limited to the specific
IOMMU chipset where this problem occurs.

This patch moves the setting of the configuration and
feature flags out out the acpi table parsing path and moves
it into the iommu-enable path. This is needed to reliably
fix resume-from-s3.

258af47479 tracing/x86: Don't use mcount in kvmclock.c
The guest can use the paravirt clock in kvmclock.c which is used
by sched_clock(), which in turn is used by the tracing mechanism
for timestamps, which leads to infinite recursion.

Disable mcount/tracing for kvmclock.o.

d9f5ab7b1c jump label: x86 support

bf5438fca2 jump label: Base patch for jump label
base patch to implement 'jump labeling'. Based on a new 'asm goto' inline
assembly gcc mechanism, we can now branch to labels from an 'asm goto'
statment. This allows us to create a 'no-op' fastpath, which can subsequently
be patched with a jump to the slowpath code. This is useful for code which
might be rarely used, but which we'd like to be able to call, if needed.
Tracepoints are the current usecase that these are being implemented for.

ce5f68246b x86, hotplug: In the MWAIT case of play_dead, CLFLUSH the cache line
When we're using MWAIT for play_dead, explicitly CLFLUSH the cache
line before executing MONITOR.  This is a potential workaround for the
Xeon 7400 erratum AAI65 after having a spurious wakeup and returning
around the loop.  "Potential" here because it is not certain that that
erratum could actually trigger; however, the CLFLUSH should be
harmless.
