Since the decrementer and timekeeping code was moved over to using
the generic clockevents and timekeeping infrastructure, several
variables and functions have been obsolete and effectively unused.
This deletes them.
In particular, wakeup_decrementer() is no longer needed since the
generic code reprograms the decrementer as part of the process of
resuming the timekeeping code, which happens during sysdev resume.
Thus the wakeup_decrementer calls in the suspend_enter methods for
52xx platforms have been removed. The call in the powermac cpu
frequency change code has been replaced by set_dec(1), which will
cause a timer interrupt as soon as interrupts are enabled, and the
generic code will then reprogram the decrementer with the correct
value.
This also simplifies the generic_suspend_en/disable_irqs functions
and makes them static since they are not referenced outside time.c.
The preempt_enable/disable calls are removed because the generic
code has disabled all but the boot cpu at the point where these
functions are called, so we can't be moved to another cpu.

Currently it is possible for userspace to see the result of
gettimeofday() going backwards by 1 microsecond, assuming that
userspace is using the gettimeofday() in the VDSO. The VDSO
gettimeofday() algorithm computes the time in "xsecs", which are
units of 2^-20 seconds, or approximately 0.954 microseconds,
using the algorithm
now = (timebase - tb_orig_stamp) * tb_to_xs + stamp_xsec
and then converts the time in xsecs to seconds and microseconds.
The kernel updates the tb_orig_stamp and stamp_xsec values every
tick in update_vsyscall(). If the length of the tick is not an
integer number of xsecs, then some precision is lost in converting
the current time to xsecs. For example, with CONFIG_HZ=1000, the
tick is 1ms long, which is 1048.576 xsecs. That means that
stamp_xsec will advance by either 1048 or 1049 on each tick.
With the right conditions, it is possible for userspace to get
(timebase - tb_orig_stamp) * tb_to_xs being 1049 if the kernel is
slightly late in updating the vdso_datapage, and then for stamp_xsec
to advance by 1048 when the kernel does update it, and for userspace
to then see (timebase - tb_orig_stamp) * tb_to_xs being zero due to
integer truncation. The result is that time appears to go backwards
by 1 microsecond.
To fix this we change the VDSO gettimeofday to use a new field in the
VDSO datapage which stores the nanoseconds part of the time as a
fractional number of seconds in a 0.32 binary fraction format.
(Or put another way, as a 32-bit number in units of 0.23283 ns.)
This is convenient because we can use the mulhwu instruction to
convert it to either microseconds or nanoseconds.
Since it turns out that computing the time of day using this new field
is simpler than either using stamp_xsec (as gettimeofday does) or
stamp_xtime.tv_nsec (as clock_gettime does), this converts both
gettimeofday and clock_gettime to use the new field. The existing
__do_get_tspec function is converted to use the new field and take
a parameter in r7 that indicates the desired resolution, 1,000,000
for microseconds or 1,000,000,000 for nanoseconds. The __do_get_xsec
function is then unused and is deleted.
The new algorithm is
now = ((timebase - tb_orig_stamp) << 12) * tb_to_xs
+ (stamp_xtime_seconds << 32) + stamp_sec_fraction
with 'now' in units of 2^-32 seconds. That is then converted to
seconds and either microseconds or nanoseconds with
seconds = now >> 32
partseconds = ((now & 0xffffffff) * resolution) >> 32
The 32-bit VDSO code also makes a further simplification: it ignores
the bottom 32 bits of the tb_to_xs value, which is a 0.64 format binary
fraction. Doing so gets rid of 4 multiply instructions. Assuming
a timebase frequency of 1GHz or less and an update interval of no
more than 10ms, the upper 32 bits of tb_to_xs will be at least
4503599, so the error from ignoring the low 32 bits will be at most
2.2ns, which is more than an order of magnitude less than the time
taken to do gettimeofday or clock_gettime on our fastest processors,
so there is no possibility of seeing inconsistent values due to this.
This also moves update_gtod() down next to its only caller, and makes
update_vsyscall use the time passed in via the wall_time argument rather
than accessing xtime directly. At present, wall_time always points to
xtime, but that could change in future.

When power_pmu_disable() removes the given event from a particular index into
cpuhw->event[], it shuffles down higher event[] entries. But, this array is
paired with cpuhw->events[] and cpuhw->flags[] so should shuffle them
similarly.
If these arrays get out of sync, code such as power_check_constraints() will
fail. This caused a bug where events were temporarily disabled and then failed
to be re-enabled; subsequent code tried to write_pmc() with its (disabled) idx
of 0, causing a message "oops trying to write PMC0". This triggers this bug on
POWER7, running a miss-heavy test:

The bridge protocol lives dangerously by having incestuous relations
with the IP stack. In this instance an abomination has been created
where a bogus IPCB area from a bridged packet leads to a crash in
the IP stack because it's interpreted as IP options.
This patch papers over the problem by clearing the IPCB area in that
particular spot. To fix this properly we'd also need to parse any
IP options if present but I'm way too lazy for that.

We don't currently update the DPMS status of the connector (both in the
connector itself and the connector's DPMS property) in the fb helper
code. This means that if the kernel FB core has blanked the screen,
sysfs will still show a DPMS status of "on". It also means that when X
starts, it will try to light up the connectors, but the drm_crtc_helper
code will ignore the DPMS change since according to the connector, the
DPMS status is already on.

Repeated ttm_page_alloc_init/fini fails noisily because the pool

Move it to kzalloc'ed memory.
Note that this patch drops the refcounting behavior of the pool

in its current form, and anyway it was never exploited.

This patch introduces 3 VFS accessors: 'sb_mark_dirty()',
'sb_mark_clean()', and 'sb_is_dirty()'. They simply
set 'sb->s_dirt' or test 'sb->s_dirt'. The plan is to make
every FS use these accessors later instead of manipulating
the 'sb->s_dirt' flag directly.
Ultimately, this change is a preparation for the periodic
superblock synchronization optimization which is about
preventing the "sync_supers" kernel thread from waking up
even if there is nothing to synchronize.
This patch does not do any functional change, just adds
accessor functions.

The T4 IQ hw design assumes CIDX_INC credits will be returned on a
regular basis and always before the CIDX counter crosses over the PIDX
counter. For RDMA CQs, however, returning CIDX_INC credits is only
needed and desired when and if the CQ is armed for notification. This
can lead to a GTS write returning credits that causes the HW to reject
the credit update because it causes CIDX to pass PIDX. Once this
happens, the CIDX/PIDX counters get out of whack and an application
can miss a notification and get stuck blocked awaiting a notification.
To avoid this, we allocate the HW IQ 2x times the requested size.
This seems to avoid the false overflow failures. If we see more
issues with this, then we'll have to add code in the poll path to
return credits periodically like when the amount reaches 1/2 the queue
depth). I would like to avoid this as it adds a PCI write transaction
for applications that never arm the CQ (like most MPIs).

This replace the PCI DMA state API (include/linux/pci-dma.h) with the
DMA equivalents since the PCI DMA state API will be obsolete.
No functional change.

First remove items from work_list as soon as we start working on them. This
means we don't have to track any pending or visited state and can get
rid of all the RCU magic freeing the work items - we can simply free
them once the operation has finished. Second use a real completion for
tracking synchronous requests - if the caller sets the completion pointer
we complete it, otherwise use it as a boolean indicator that we can free
the work item directly. Third unify struct wb_writeback_args and struct
bdi_work into a single data structure, wb_writeback_work. Previous we
set all parameters into a struct wb_writeback_args, copied it into
struct bdi_work, copied it again on the stack to use it there. Instead
of just allocate one structure dynamically or on the stack and use it
all the way through the stack.

The case where we have a superblock doesn't require a loop here as we scan
over all inodes in writeback_sb_inodes. Split it out into a separate helper
to make the code simpler. This also allows to get rid of the sb member in
struct writeback_control, which was rather out of place there.
Also update the comments in writeback_sb_inodes that explain the handling
of inodes from wrong superblocks.
