a489ca355e x86: Make sure we also print a Code: line for show_regs()
show_regs() is called as a mini BUG() equivalent in some places,
specifically for the "scheduling while atomic" case.

Unfortunately right now it does not print a Code: line unlike
a real bug/oops.

This patch changes the x86 implementation of show_regs() so that
it calls the same function as oopses do to print the registers
as well as the Code: line.

772be899bc x86: Make EFI RTC function depend on 32bit again
The EFI RTC functions are only available on 32 bit. commit 7bd867df
(x86: Move get/set_wallclock to x86_platform_ops) removed the 32bit
dependency which leads to boot crashes on 64bit EFI systems.

Add the dependency back.

72ed7de74e x86: crash_dump: Fix non-pae kdump kernel memory accesses
Non-PAE 32-bit dump kernels may wrap an address around 4G and
poke unwanted space. ptes there are 32-bit long, and since
pfn << PAGE_SIZE may exceed this limit, high pfn bits are
cropped and wrong address mapped by kmap_atomic_pfn in
copy_oldmem_page.

Don't allow this behavior in non-PAE kdump kernels by checking
pfns passed into copy_oldmem_page. In the case of failure,
userspace process gets EFAULT.

Create an inline function to extract the pnode from a global

The open-coded code was wrong as well - it might explain a

93ae5012a7 x86: Don't print number of MCE banks for every CPU
The MCE initialization code explicitly says it doesn't handle
asymmetric configurations where different CPUs support different
numbers of MCE banks, and it prints a big warning in that case.

Therefore, printing the "mce: CPU supports <x> MCE banks"
message into the kernel log for every CPU is pure redundancy
that clutters the log significantly for systems with lots of
CPUs.

036ed8ba61 x86, UV: Fix information in __uv_hub_info structure
A few parts of the uv_hub_info structure are initialized
incorrectly.

 - n_val is being loaded with m_val.
 - gpa_mask is initialized with a bytes instead of an unsigned long.
 - Handle the case where none of the alias registers are used.

Lastly I converted the bau over to using the uv_hub_info->m_val
which is the correct value.

Without this patch, booting a large configuration hits a
problem where the upper bits of the gnode affect the pnode
and the bau will not operate.

As reported in

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13940

on some system when acpi are enabled, acpi clears some BAR for some
devices without reason, and kernel will need to allocate devices for
them.  It then apparently hits some undocumented resource conflict,
resulting in non-working devices.

Try to increase alignment to get more safe range for unassigned devices.

e7ab0f7b50 Revert "x86, timers: Check for pending timers after (device) interrupts"
This reverts commit 9bcbdd9c58.

The real bug producing LatencyTop latencies has been fixed in:

  f5dc375: sched: Update the clock of runqueue select_task_rq() selected

And the commit being reverted here triggers local timer processing
from every device IRQ. If device IRQs come in at a high frequency,
this could cause a performance regression.

The commit being reverted here purely 'fixed' the reported latency
as a side effect, because CPUs were being moved out of idle more
often.

9bcbdd9c58 x86, timers: Check for pending timers after (device) interrupts
Now that range timers and deferred timers are common, I found a
problem with these using the "perf timechart" tool. Frans Pop also
reported high scheduler latencies via LatencyTop, when using
iwlagn.

It turns out that on x86, these two 'opportunistic' timers only get
checked when another "real" timer happens. These opportunistic
timers have the objective to save power by hitchhiking on other
wakeups, as to avoid CPU wakeups by themselves as much as possible.

The change in this patch runs this check not only at timer
interrupts, but at all (device) interrupts. The effect is that:

 1) the deferred timers/range timers get delayed less

 2) the range timers cause less wakeups by themselves because
    the percentage of hitchhiking on existing wakeup events goes up.

I've verified the working of the patch using "perf timechart", the
original exposed bug is gone with this patch. Frans also reported
success - the latencies are now down in the expected ~10 msec
range.

f436f8bb73 x86: EDAC: MCE: Fix MCE decoding callback logic
Make decoding of MCEs happen only on AMD hardware by registering a
non-default callback only on CPU families which support it.

While looking at the interaction of decode_mce() with the other MCE
code i also noticed a few other things and made the following
cleanups/fixes:

 - Fixed the mce_decode() weak alias - a weak alias is really not
   good here, it should be a proper callback. A weak alias will be
   overriden if a piece of code is built into the kernel - not
   good, obviously.

 - The patch initializes the callback on AMD family 10h and 11h.

 - Added the more correct fallback printk of:

	No support for human readable MCE decoding on this CPU type.
	Transcribe the message and run it through 'mcelog --ascii' to decode.

   On CPUs that dont have a decoder.

 - Made the surrounding code more readable.

Note that the callback allows us to have a default fallback -
without having to check the CPU versions during the printout
itself. When an EDAC module registers itself, it can install the
decode-print function.

(there's no unregister needed as this is core code.)

version -v2 by Borislav Petkov:

 - add K8 to the set of supported CPUs

 - always build in edac_mce_amd since we use an early_initcall now

 - fix checkpatch warnings

Commit c953094 ("early_printk: Allow more than one early console")
introduced a regression in the parsing of the earlyprintk= kernel
arguments.

If you specify "earlyprintk=serial,ttyS0,115200" as a kernel
argument, the "serial,ttyS" should be parsed as a single argument
and not as "serial" and then "ttyS".

Also update the documentation to reflect you can specify the ttyS
directly without the "serial" argument.

79e1dd05d1 x86: Provide an alternative() based cmpxchg64()
cmpxchg64() today generates, to quote Linus, "barf bag" code.

cmpxchg64() is about to get used in the scheduler to fix a bug there,
but it's a prerequisite that cmpxchg64() first be made non-sucking.

This patch turns cmpxchg64() into an efficient implementation that
uses the alternative() mechanism to just use the raw instruction on
all modern systems.

Note: the fallback is NOT smp safe, just like the current fallback
is not SMP safe. (Interested parties with i486 based SMP systems
are welcome to submit fix patches for that.)

3e2ada5867 ACPI: fix Compaq Evo N800c (Pentium 4m) boot hang regression
Don't disable ARB_DISABLE when the familary ID is 0x0F.

http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14211

This was a 2.6.31 regression, and so this patch
needs to be applied to 2.6.31.stable

8d65af789f sysctl: remove "struct file *" argument of ->proc_handler
It's unused.

It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl
shouldn't care about the rest.

It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason.

ea01c0d731 x86: Reduce verbosity of "TSC is reliable" message
On modern systems, the kernel prints the message

    Skipping synchronization checks as TSC is reliable.

once for every non-boot CPU.

This gets kind of ridiculous on huge systems; for example, on a
64-thread system I was lucky enough to get:

    $ dmesg | grep 'TSC is reliable' | wc
         63     567    4221

There's no point to doing this for every CPU, since the code is
just checking the boot CPU anyway, so change this to a
printk_once() to make the message appears only once.

   not needed after kref conversion
 * remove linux/utsname.h inclusion from files which do not need it

NOTE: it looks like fs/binfmt_elf.c do not need utsname.h, however
due to some personality stuff it _is_ needed -- cowardly leave ELF-related
headers and files alone.

78f1c4d6b0 cpumask: use mm_cpumask() wrapper: x86
Makes code futureproof against the impending change to mm->cpu_vm_mask (to be a pointer).

It's also a chance to use the new cpumask_ ops which take a pointer
(the older ones are deprecated, but there's no hurry for arch code).
