Not all the world is an i386. Many architectures need 64-bit arguments to be
aligned in suitable pairs of registers, and the original
sys_sync_file_range(int, loff_t, loff_t, int) was therefore wasting an
argument register for padding after the first integer. Since we don't
normally have more than 6 arguments for system calls, that left no room for
the final argument on some architectures.
Fix this by introducing sys_sync_file_range2(int, int, loff_t, loff_t) which
all fits nicely. In fact, ARM already had that, but called it
sys_arm_sync_file_range. Move it to fs/sync.c and rename it, then implement
the needed compatibility routine. And stop the missing syscall check from
bitching about the absence of sys_sync_file_range() if we've implemented
sys_sync_file_range2() instead.
Tested on PPC32 and with 32-bit and 64-bit userspace on PPC64.

Force irq migration path during cpu offline, is not using proper locks and
irq_chip mask/unmask routines. This will result in some races(especially
the device generating the interrupt can see some inconsistent state,
resulting in issues like stuck irq,..).
Appended patch fixes the issue by taking proper lock and encapsulating
irq_chip set_affinity() with a mask() before and an unmask() after.
This fixes a MSI irq stuck issue reported by Darrick Wong.
There are several more general bugs in this area(irq migration in the
process context). For example,
1. Possibility of missing edge triggered irq.
2. Reliable method of migrating level triggered irq in the process context.
We plan to look and close these in the near future.
Eric says:
In addition even with the fix from Suresh there is still at least one
nasty hardware race in fixup_irqs(). However we exercise that code
path rarely enough that we are unlikely to hit it in the real world,
and that race seems to have existed since the code was merged. And a
fix for that is not coming soon as it is an open investigation area
if we can fix irq migration to work outside of irq context or if
we have to rework the requirements imposed by the generic cpu hotplug
and layer on fixup_irqs(). So this may come up again.

This fixes a bug which can cause corruption of the floating-point state
on return from a signal handler. If we have a signal handler that has
used the floating-point registers, and it happens to context-switch to
another task while copying the interrupted floating-point state from the
user stack into the thread struct (e.g. because of a page fault, or
because it gets preempted), the context switch code will think that the
FP registers contain valid FP state that needs to be copied into the
thread_struct, and will thus overwrite the values that the signal return
code has put into the thread_struct.
This can occur because we clear the MSR bits that indicate the presence
of valid FP state after copying the state into the thread_struct. To fix
this we just move the clearing of the MSR bits to before the copy. A
similar potential problem also occurs with the Altivec state, and this
fixes that in the same way.

Consider the prototype for gettimeofday():
int gettimofday(struct timeval *tv, struct timezone *tz);
Although it is valid to call with /either/ tv or tz being NULL, and
the C version of sys_gettimeofday() supports this, the current version
of gettimeofday() in the VDSO will SEGV if called with a NULL tv.
This adds a check for tv being NULL so that it doesn't SEGV.

Register %ebx serves as the "global offset table base register" for
position-independent code. For absolute code, %ebx serves as a local
register and has no specified role in the function calling sequence. In
either case, a function must preserve the register value for the caller.
acpi_copy_wakeup_routine overrides %ebx without saving it, this may corrupt
the called data.
Kevin found that most time the value of Sx is saved in %esi, however
sometimes compiler also uses %ebx. When this happens, suspends fails since
sleep value in ebx is changed by acpi_copy_wakeup_routine.

Background:
When a userspace application wants to know about machine check events, it
opens /dev/mcelog and does a read(). Usually, we found that this interface
works well, but in some cases, when the system was taking large numbers of
machine check exceptions, the read() would hang. The system would output a
soft-lockup warning, and the daemon reading from /dev/mcelog would suck up
as much of a single CPU as it could spinning in system space.
Description:
This patch fixes this bug. In particular, there was a "continue" inside a
timeout loop that presumably was intended to break out of the outer loop,
but instead caused the inner loop to continue. This patch also makes the
condition for the break-out a little more evident by changing a
!time_before to a time_after_eq.
Result:
The read() no longer hangs in this test case.
Testing:
On my system, I could replicate the bug with the following command:
# for i in `seq 15000`; do ./inject_sbe.sh; done
where inject_sbe.sh contains commands to inject a single-bit error into the
next memory write transaction.

This patch is against git f1518a088b.

If (start + size) is not cacheline aligned and (start & mask) > (end &
mask), the last but one cacheline won't be invalidated as it should.
Fix this by rounding `end' down to the nearest cacheline boundary if
it gets adjusted due to misalignment.
Also flush the write buffer unconditionally -- if the dcache wrote
back a line just before we invalidated it, the dirty data may be
sitting in the write buffer waiting to corrupt our buffer later.

It is only used for PAE kernels in set_64bit.
The problem is that due to a old Windows bug many CPUs need magic MSRs
to enable CMPXCHG64, and we can't do that nicely early enough before
it is potentially used.
But since we only need it in PAE kernels so only force the checking
for CMPXCHG65 with PAE.
