This includes initial support for the recently published ACPI 5.0 spec.
In particular, support for the "hardware-reduced" bit that eliminates
the dependency on legacy hardware.
APEI has patches resulting from testing on real hardware.
Plus other random fixes.

In SRAT v1, we had 8bit proximity domain (PXM) fields; SRAT v2 provides
32bits for these. The new fields were reserved before.
According to the ACPI spec, the OS must disregrard reserved fields.
x86/x86-64 was rather inconsistent prior to this patch; it used 8 bits
for the pxm field in cpu_affinity, but 32 bits in mem_affinity.
This patch makes it consistent: Either use 8 bits consistently (SRAT
rev 1 or lower) or 32 bits (SRAT rev 2 or higher).

module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In
fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy
trick.
It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version
it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version.

With the 3.2-rc kernel, IOMMU 2M pages in KVM works. But when I tried
to use IOMMU 1GB pages in KVM, I encountered an oops and the 1GB page
failed to be used.
The root cause is that 1GB page allocation calls gup_huge_pud() while 2M
page calls gup_huge_pmd. If compound pages are used and the page is a
tail page, gup_huge_pmd() increases _mapcount to record tail page are
mapped while gup_huge_pud does not do that.
So when the mapped page is relesed, it will result in kernel oops
because the page is not marked mapped.
This patch add tail process for compound page in 1GB huge page which
keeps the same process as 2M page.
Reproduce like:
1. Add grub boot option: hugepagesz=1G hugepages=8
2. mount -t hugetlbfs -o pagesize=1G hugetlbfs /dev/hugepages
3. qemu-kvm -m 2048 -hda os-kvm.img -cpu kvm64 -smp 4 -mem-path /dev/hugepages

This patch adds constraint checks to the numa_set_distance()
function.
When the check triggers (this should not happen normally) it
emits a warning and avoids a store to a negative index in
numa_distance[] array - i.e. avoids memory corruption.
Negative ids can be passed when the pxm-to-nids mapping is not
properly filled while parsing the SRAT.

When (no)bootmem finish operation, it pass pages to buddy
allocator. Since debug_pagealloc_enabled is not set, we will do
not protect pages, what is not what we want with
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y.
To fix remove debug_pagealloc_enabled. That variable was
introduced by commit 12d6f21e "x86: do not PSE on
CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC=y" to get more CPA (change page
attribude) code testing. But currently we have CONFIG_CPA_DEBUG,
which test CPA.

On x86_32 casting the unsigned int result of get_random_int() to
long may result in a negative value. On x86_32 the range of
mmap_rnd() therefore was -255 to 255. The 32bit mode on x86_64
used 0 to 255 as intended.
The bug was introduced by 675a081 ("x86: unify mmap_{32|64}.c")
in January 2008.

regardless of lazy_mmu mode

The problem is that in copy_page_range() we turn lazy mode on,
and then in swap_entry_free() we call swap_count_continued()
which ends up in:
map = kmap_atomic(page, KM_USER0) + offset;
and then later we touch *map.
Since we are running in batched mode (lazy) we don't actually
set up the PTE mappings and the kmap_atomic is not done
synchronously and ends up trying to dereference a page that has
not been set.
Looking at kmap_atomic_prot_pfn(), it uses
'arch_flush_lazy_mmu_mode' and doing the same in
kmap_atomic_prot() and __kunmap_atomic() makes the problem go
away.
Interestingly, commit b8bcfe997e4615 ("x86/paravirt: remove lazy
mode in interrupts") removed part of this to fix an interrupt
issue - but it went to far and did not consider this scenario.

To make this work, we teach the page fault handler how to send
signals on failed uaccess. This only works for user addresses
(kernel addresses will never hit the page fault handler in the
first place), so we need to generate signals for those
separately.
This gets the tricky case right: if the user buffer spans
multiple pages and only the second page is invalid, we set
cr2 and si_addr correctly. UML relies on this behavior to
"fault in" pages as needed.
We steal a bit from thread_info.uaccess_err to enable this.
Before this change, uaccess_err was a 32-bit boolean value.
This fixes issues with UML when vsyscall=emulate.

Michel while working on the working set estimation code, noticed that
calling get_page_unless_zero() on a random pfn_to_page(random_pfn)
wasn't safe, if the pfn ended up being a tail page of a transparent
hugepage under splitting by __split_huge_page_refcount().
He then found the problem could also theoretically materialize with
page_cache_get_speculative() during the speculative radix tree lookups
that uses get_page_unless_zero() in SMP if the radix tree page is freed
and reallocated and get_user_pages is called on it before
page_cache_get_speculative has a chance to call get_page_unless_zero().
So the best way to fix the problem is to keep page_tail->_count zero at
all times. This will guarantee that get_page_unless_zero() can never
succeed on any tail page. page_tail->_mapcount is guaranteed zero and
is unused for all tail pages of a compound page, so we can simply
account the tail page references there and transfer them to
tail_page->_count in __split_huge_page_refcount() (in addition to the
head_page->_mapcount).
While debugging this s/_count/_mapcount/ change I also noticed get_page is
called by direct-io.c on pages returned by get_user_pages. That wasn't
entirely safe because the two atomic_inc in get_page weren't atomic. As
opposed to other get_user_page users like secondary-MMU page fault to
establish the shadow pagetables would never call any superflous get_page
after get_user_page returns. It's safer to make get_page universally safe
for tail pages and to use get_page_foll() within follow_page (inside
get_user_pages()). get_page_foll() is safe to do the refcounting for tail
pages without taking any locks because it is run within PT lock protected
critical sections (PT lock for pte and page_table_lock for
pmd_trans_huge).
The standard get_page() as invoked by direct-io instead will now take
the compound_lock but still only for tail pages. The direct-io paths
are usually I/O bound and the compound_lock is per THP so very
finegrined, so there's no risk of scalability issues with it. A simple
direct-io benchmarks with all lockdep prove locking and spinlock
debugging infrastructure enabled shows identical performance and no
overhead. So it's worth it. Ideally direct-io should stop calling
get_page() on pages returned by get_user_pages(). The spinlock in
get_page() is already optimized away for no-THP builds but doing
get_page() on tail pages returned by GUP is generally a rare operation
and usually only run in I/O paths.
This new refcounting on page_tail->_mapcount in addition to avoiding new
RCU critical sections will also allow the working set estimation code to
work without any further complexity associated to the tail page
refcounting with THP.

Commit 4b239f458 ("x86-64, mm: Put early page table high") causes a S4
regression since 2.6.39, namely the machine reboots occasionally at S4
resume. It doesn't happen always, overall rate is about 1/20. But,
like other bugs, once when this happens, it continues to happen.
This patch fixes the problem by essentially reverting the memory
assignment in the older way.

Erratum 93 applies to AMD K8 CPUs only, and its workaround
(forcing the upper 32 bits of %rip to all get set under certain
conditions) is actually getting in the way of analyzing page
faults occurring during EFI physical mode runtime calls (in
particular the page table walk shown is completely unrelated to
the actual fault). This is because typically EFI runtime code
lives in the space between 2G and 4G, which - modulo the above
manipulation - is likely to overlap with the kernel or modules
area.
While even for the other errata workarounds their taking effect
could be limited to just the affected CPUs, none of them appears
to be destructive, and they're generally getting called only
outside of performance critical paths, so they're being left
untouched.

arch/x86/mm/fault.c now depend on having the symbol VSYSCALL_START
defined, which is best handled by including <asm/fixmap.h> (it isn't
unreasonable we may want other fixed addresses in this file in the
future, and so it is cleaner than including <asm/vsyscall.h>
directly.)
This addresses an x86-64 allnoconfig build failure. On other
configurations it was masked by an indirect path:
<asm/smp.h> -> <asm/apic.h> -> <asm/fixmap.h> -> <asm/vsyscall.h>
... however, the first such include is conditional on CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC.

There are three choices:
vsyscall=native: Vsyscalls are native code that issues the
corresponding syscalls.
vsyscall=emulate (default): Vsyscalls are emulated by instruction
fault traps, tested in the bad_area path. The actual contents of
the vsyscall page is the same as the vsyscall=native case except
that it's marked NX. This way programs that make assumptions about
what the code in the page does will not be confused when they read
that code.
vsyscall=none: Trying to execute a vsyscall will segfault.

This patch provides performance tuning for the "Bulldozer" CPU. With its
shared instruction cache there is a chance of generating an excessive
number of cache cross-invalidates when running specific workloads on the
cores of a compute module.
This excessive amount of cross-invalidations can be observed if cache
lines backed by shared physical memory alias in bits [14:12] of their
virtual addresses, as those bits are used for the index generation.
This patch addresses the issue by clearing all the bits in the [14:12]
slice of the file mapping's virtual address at generation time, thus
forcing those bits the same for all mappings of a single shared library
across processes and, in doing so, avoids instruction cache aliases.
It also adds the command line option "align_va_addr=(32|64|on|off)" with
which virtual address alignment can be enabled for 32-bit or 64-bit x86
individually, or both, or be completely disabled.
This change leaves virtual region address allocation on other families
and/or vendors unaffected.

Three places in the kernel assume that the only long mode CPL 3
selector is __USER_CS. This is not true on Xen -- Xen's sysretq
changes cs to the magic value 0xe033.
Two of the places are corner cases, but as of "x86-64: Improve
vsyscall emulation CS and RIP handling"
(c9712944b2a12373cb6ff8059afcfb7e826a6c54), vsyscalls will segfault
if called with Xen's extra CS selector. This causes a panic when
older init builds die.
It seems impossible to make Xen use __USER_CS reliably without
taking a performance hit on every system call, so this fixes the
tests instead with a new paravirt op. It's a little ugly because
ptrace.h can't include paravirt.h.

Other than sanity check and debug message, the x86 specific version of

This patch adds debug messages with caller identification to the
