Some systems incorrectly report the ExtINTA pin of the I/O APIC as the
genuine target of the timer interrupt. Here is a change that copies timer
pin information found to the other pin if one has been found only. This
way both a direct and a through-8259A route is tested with the pin letting
these problematic systems work well enough. If no timer pin information
has been found for the I/O APIC, then local APIC variations are tried
only, similarly to what is done without the change (except without the
misleading messages).
Obviously if we try the first-chance path without being told by the BIOS
to do so, we should not complain either, so do not print the message in
this case.
The 64-bit variation should be updated with a call to
replace_pin_at_irq() which can be done with the upcoming merge. Since
add_pin_to_irq() is now always called in the first-chance path, the
condition to require it in the second-chance path no longer happens.

Rename setup_ExtINT_IRQ0_pin() to setup_timer_IRQ0_pin() to better
reflect the upcoming role of a function setting up a (semi-)arbitrary I/O
APIC pin appropriately for the 8254 timer. By "appropriate" the following
settings are meant: edge-triggered, active-high, all the other settings
per-architecture. Adjust comments to reflect code appropriately. No
functional changes.

When the through-8259A mode is used for the timer, the call to
set_irq_handler() will register a NULL handler name, resulting in
"IO-APIC-<NULL>" reported. Fix by calling ioapic_register_intr() as done
for all the other I/O APIC interrupts.
The 64-bit variation calls set_irq_chip_and_handler_name() here
needlessly and should get fixed with the upcoming merge.

The local APIC interrupt handler gets registered with
set_irq_chip_and_handler_name(), which results in
"local-APIC-edge-fasteoi" reported as the name of the handler. Fix by
removing the type of the handler left over from before the generic
handlers were introduced.
The 64-bit variation should get fixed with the upcoming merge.
NB It should really use the "edge" handler and not the "fasteoi" one,
but that's a separate issue.

There is no point in keeping the 8259A enabled if the I/O APIC NMI

The code that used to be in do_slow_gettimeoffset() that relied on the
IRR bit of the master 8259A PIC for IRQ0 to check the state of the output
timer 0 of the PIT is no longer there. As a result, there is no need to
use the POLL command to acknowledge the timer interrupt in the "8259A
Virtual Wire", except for the NMI watchdog when the i82489DX APIC is used
(this is because this particular APIC treats NMIs as level-triggered and
keeping the input asserted would keep motherboard NMI sources held off for
too long). Remove the unneeded bits and adjust comments accordingly.

The pxa27x DMA controller defaults to 64-bit alignment. This caused
the SCR reads to fail (and, depending on card type, error out) when
card->raw_scr was not aligned on a 8-byte boundary.
For performance reasons all scatter-gather addresses passed to
pxamci_request should be aligned on 8-byte boundaries, but if
this can't be guaranteed, byte aligned DMA transfers in the

This reverts commit e872154921a6b5256a3c412dd69158ac0b135176.
Andrey Borzenkov reports that it resulted in a totally hung machine for
him when loading the OHCI driver. Extensive netconsole capture with
SysRq output shows that modprobe gets stuck in ohci_hub_status_data()
when probing and enabling the OHCI controller, see for example
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/7/5/236
for an analysis.
The problem appears to be an interrupt flood triggered by the commit
that gets reverted, and Andrey confirmed that the revert makes things
work for him again.

The "remote_irr" variable is used to indicate an interrupt
which has been received by the LAPIC, but not acked.
In our EOI handler, we unset remote_irr and re-inject the
interrupt if the interrupt line is still asserted.
However, we do not set remote_irr here, leading to a
situation where if kvm_ioapic_set_irq() is called, then we go
ahead and call ioapic_service(). This means that IRR is
re-asserted even though the interrupt is currently in service
(i.e. LAPIC IRR is cleared and ISR/TMR set)
The issue with this is that when the currently executing
interrupt handler finishes and writes LAPIC EOI, then TMR is
unset and EOI sent to the IOAPIC. Since IRR is now asserted,
but TMR is not, then when the second interrupt is handled,
no EOI is sent and if there is any pending interrupt, it is
not re-injected.
This fixes a hang only seen while running mke2fs -j on an
8Gb virtio disk backed by a fully sparse raw file, with
aliguori "avoid fragmented virtio-blk transfers by copying"

Fix some issues in pagemap_read noted by Alexey:
- initialize pagemap_walk.mm to "mm" , so the code starts working as
advertised
- initialize ->private to "&pm" so it wouldn't immediately oops in
pagemap_pte_hole()
- unstatic struct pagemap_walk, so two threads won't fsckup each other
(including those started by root, including flipping ->mm when you don't
have permissions)
- pagemap_read() contains two calls to ptrace_may_attach(), second one
looks unneeded.
- avoid possible kmalloc(0) and integer wraparound.

The CaFe chip has a hardware bug that ends up with us getting a timeout
value that's too small, causing the following sorts of problems:
[ 60.525138] mmcblk0: error -110 transferring data
[ 60.531477] end_request: I/O error, dev mmcblk0, sector 1484353
[ 60.533371] Buffer I/O error on device mmcblk0p2, logical block 181632
[ 60.533371] lost page write due to I/O error on mmcblk0p2
Presumably this is an off-by-one error in the hardware. Incrementing
the timeout count value that we stuff into the TIMEOUT_CONTROL register
gets us a value that works. This bug was originally discovered by
Pierre Ossman, I believe.

This patch changes the way we determine the maximum number of outstanding
commands for each controller.
Most Smart Array controllers can support up to 1024 commands, the notable
exceptions are the E200 and E200i.
The next generation of controllers which were just added support a mode of
operation called Zero Memory Raid (ZMR). In this mode they only support
64 outstanding commands. In Full Function Raid (FFR) mode they support
1024.
We have been setting the queue depth by arbitrarily assigning some value
for each controller. We needed a better way to set the queue depth to
avoid lots of annoying "fifo full" messages. So we made the driver a
little smarter. We now read the config table and subtract 4 from the
returned value. The -4 is to allow some room for ioctl calls which are
not tracked the same way as io commands are tracked.
Please consider this for inclusion.

The build of the Alpha Linux kernel currently fails[1] with inconsistent
kallsyms data. As I never saw that before, I thought about hardware
problems. But in fact it is a bug in the Linux kernel.
The end of the rodata section is marked with the "__end_rodata" symbol.
This symbol have different aligning constraints than the inittext parts
and therefor the start marked "_sinittext". Because of that the
__end_rodata symbol shifts between < _sinittext and == _sinittext. The
later variant is seen as a code symbol and recorded in the kallsyms data.
On fix would be to move the exception table a little bit and get some
space between that two areas.
