88358ab089 libata/drivers: Add driver for Apple "MacIO" IDE controller
This is a libata driver for the "macio" IDE controller used on most Apple
PowerMac and PowerBooks. It's a libata equivalent of drivers/ide/ppc/pmac.c

It supports all the features of its predecessor, including mediabay hotplug
and suspend/resume. It should also support module load/unload.

The timing calculations have been simplified to use pre-calculated tables
compared to drivers/ide/pmac.c and it uses the new mediabay interface
provided by a previous patch.

f0353813af libata/sff: Use ops->bmdma_stop instead of ata_bmdma_stop()
In libata-sff, ata_sff_post_internal_cmd() directly calls ata_bmdma_stop()
instead of ap->ops->bmdma_stop(). This can be a problem for controllers
that use their own bmdma_stop for which the generic sff one isn't suitable

d58b0c39e3 powerpc/macio: Rework hotplug media bay support
The hotplug mediabay has tendrils deep into drivers/ide code
which makes a libata port reather difficult. In addition it's
ugly and could be done better.

This reworks the interface between the mediabay and the rest
of the world so that:

   - Any macio_driver can now have a mediabay_event callback
which will be called when that driver sits on a mediabay and
it's been either plugged or unplugged. The device type is
passed as an argument. We can now move all the IDE cruft
into the IDE driver itself

   - A check_media_bay() function can be used to take a peek
at the type of device currently in the bay if any, a cleaner
variant of the previous function with the same name.

   - A pair of lock/unlock functions are exposed to allow the
IDE driver to block the hotplug callbacks during the initial
setup and probing of the bay in order to avoid nasty race
conditions.

   - The mediabay code no longer needs to spin on the status
register of the IDE interface when it detects an IDE device,
this is done just fine by the IDE code itself

Overall, less code, simpler, and allows for another driver
than our old drivers/ide based one.

e15a113700 powerpc/kvm: Sync guest visible MMU state
Currently userspace has no chance to find out which virtual address space we're
in and resolve addresses. While that is a big problem for migration, it's also
unpleasent when debugging, as gdb and the monitor don't work on virtual
addresses.

This patch exports enough of the MMU segment state to userspace to make
debugging work and thus also includes the groundwork for migration.

d28513bc7f powerpc/mm: Fix pgtable cache cleanup with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT
Commit a0668cdc15 cleans up the handling
of kmem_caches for allocating various levels of pagetables.
Unfortunately, it conflicts badly with CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT, due to
the latter's cleverly hidden technique of adding some extra allocation
space to the top level page directory to store the extra information
it needs.

Since that extra allocation really doesn't fit into the cleaned up
page directory allocating scheme, this patch alters
CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT to instead allocate its struct
subpage_prot_table as part of the mm_context_t.

39adfa540f powerpc/mm: Fix bug in gup_hugepd()
Commit a4fe3ce769 introduced a new
get_user_pages() path for hugepages on powerpc.  Unfortunately, there
is a bug in it's loop logic, which can cause it to overrun the end of
the intended region.  This came about by copying the logic from the
normal page path, which assumes the address and end parameters have
been pagesize aligned at the top-level.  Since they're not *hugepage*
size aligned, the simplistic logic could step over the end of the gup
region without triggering the loop end condition.

This patch fixes the bug by using the technique that the normal page
path uses in levels above the lowest to truncate the ending address to
something we know we'll match with.

3aa565f53c powerpc/pseries: Add hooks to put the CPU into an appropriate offline state
When a CPU is offlined on POWER currently, we call rtas_stop_self() and hand
the CPU back to the resource pool. This path is used for DLPAR which will
cause a change in the LPAR configuration which will be visible outside.

This patch changes the default state a CPU is put into when it is offlined.
On platforms which support ceding the processor to the hypervisor with
latency hint specifier value, during a cpu offline operation,
instead of calling rtas_stop_self(), we cede the vCPU to the hypervisor
while passing a latency hint specifier value. The Hypervisor can use this hint
to provide better energy savings. Also, during the offline
operation, the control of the vCPU remains with the LPAR as oppposed to
returning it to the resource pool.

The patch achieves this by creating an infrastructure to set the
preferred_offline_state() which can be either
- CPU_STATE_OFFLINE: which is the current behaviour of calling
  rtas_stop_self()

- CPU_STATE_INACTIVE: which cedes the vCPU to the hypervisor with the latency
  hint specifier.

The codepath which wants to perform a DLPAR operation can set the
preferred_offline_state() of a CPU to CPU_STATE_OFFLINE before invoking
cpu_down().

The patch also provides a boot-time command line argument to disable/enable
CPU_STATE_INACTIVE.

5854d9c8d1 Fix handling of the HP/Acer 'DMAR at zero' BIOS error for machines with <4GiB RAM.
Commit 86cf898e1d ("intel-iommu: Check for
'DMAR at zero' BIOS error earlier.") was supposed to work by pretending
not to detect an IOMMU if it was actually being reported by the BIOS at
physical address zero.

However, the intel_iommu_init() function is called unconditionally, as
are the corresponding functions for other IOMMU hardware.

So the patch only worked if you have RAM above the 4GiB boundary. It
caused swiotlb to be initialised when no IOMMU was detected during early
boot, and thus the later IOMMU init would refuse to run.

But if you have less RAM than that, swiotlb wouldn't get set up and the
IOMMU _would_ still end up being initialised, even though we never
claimed to detect it.

This patch also sets the dmar_disabled flag when the error is detected
during the initial detection phase -- so that the later call to
intel_iommu_init() will return without doing anything, regardless of
whether swiotlb is used or not.

a414f01ac2 strcmp: fix overflow and possibly signedness error
Doing the strcmp return value as

	signed char __res = *cs - *ct;

is wrong for two reasons.  The subtraction can overflow because __res
doesn't use a type big enough.  Moreover the compared bytes should be
interpreted as unsigned char as specified by POSIX.

The same problem is fixed in strncmp.
