Wang Chen 9f4f25c86f x86: early_ioremap_init(), use __fix_to_virt(), because we are sure it's safe
Tetsuo Handa reported this link bug:

 |  arch/x86/mm/built-in.o(.init.text+0x1831): In function `early_ioremap_init':
 |  : undefined reference to `__this_fixmap_does_not_exist'
 |  make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

Commit:8827247ffcc9e880cbe4705655065cf011265157 used a variable (which
would be optimized to constant) as fix_to_virt()'s parameter.
It's depended on gcc's optimization and fails on old gcc. (Tetsuo used gcc 3.3)

We can use __fix_to_vir() instead, because we know it's safe and
don't need link time error reporting.

Pallipadi, Venkatesh 9cdec04938 x86, PAT, PCI: Change vma prot in pci_mmap to reflect inherited prot
While looking at the issue in the thread:

  http://marc.info/?l=dri-devel&m=123606627824556&w=2

noticed a bug in pci PAT code and memory type setting.

PCI mmap code did not set the proper protection in vma, when it
inherited protection in reserve_memtype. This bug only affects
the case where there exists a WC mapping before X does an mmap
with /proc or /sys pci interface. This will cause X userlevel
mmap from /proc or /sysfs to fail on fork.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge c8608d6b58 x86/dmi: fix dmi_alloc() section mismatches
Impact: section mismatch fix

Ingo reports these warnings:
> WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x6a288e): Section mismatch in reference from
> the function dmi_alloc() to the function .init.text:extend_brk()
> The function dmi_alloc() references

> This is often because dmi_alloc lacks a __init annotation or the
> annotation of extend_brk is wrong.

dmi_alloc() is a static inline, and so should be immune to this
kind of error.  But force it to be inlined and make it __init
anyway, just to be extra sure.

All of dmi_alloc()'s callers are already __init.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 45c7b28f3c Revert "x86: create a non-zero sized bm_pte only when needed"
This reverts commit 698609bdcd.

69860 breaks Xen booting, as it relies on head*.S to set up the fixmap
pagetables (as a side-effect of initializing the USB debug port).
Xen, however, does not boot via head*.S, and so the fixmap area is
not initialized.

The specific symptom of the crash is a fault in dmi_scan(), because
the pointer that early_ioremap returns is not actually present.

Mikulas Patocka 192d7a4667 sparc64: Fix crash with /proc/iomem
When you compile kernel on Sparc64 with heap memory checking and type
"cat /proc/iomem", you get a crash, because pointers in struct
resource are uninitialized.

Most code fills struct resource with zeros, so I assume that it is
responsibility of the caller of request_resource to initialized it,
not the responsibility of request_resource functuion.

After 2.6.29 is out, there could be a check for uninitialized fields
added to request_resource to avoid crashes like this.

After TASK_SIZE now gives the current size of the address space the
upgrade of a 64 bit process from 3 to 4 levels of page table  needs
to use the arch_mmap_check hook to catch large mmap lengths. The

arch_get_unmapped_area*, upgrade the page table and retry.

Martin Schwidefsky f481bfafd3 [S390] make page table walking more robust
Make page table walking on s390 more robust. The current code requires
that the pgd/pud/pmd/pte loop is only done for address ranges that are
below the end address of the last vma of the address space. But this
is not always true, e.g. the generic page table walker does not guarantee
this. Change TASK_SIZE/TASK_SIZE_OF to reflect the current size of the
address space. This makes the generic page table walker happy but it
breaks the upgrade of a 3 level page table to a 4 level page table.
To make the upgrade work again another fix is required.

-EFAULT returned by the (page table walk) user copy functions,
even though there is valid memory. Those user copy functions don't
need a struct page, so this patch just removes the pfn_valid() check.

but the quotient is only increased if the dividend had the last bit set.

Rusty Russell 2c74d66624 x86, uv: fix cpumask iterator in uv_bau_init()
Impact: fix boot crash on UV systems

Commit 76ba0ecda0 "cpumask: use
cpumask_var_t in uv_flush_tlb_others" used cur_cpu as an iterator;
it was supposed to be zero for the code below it.

Suresh Siddha ce4e240c27 x86: add x2apic_wrmsr_fence() to x2apic flush tlb paths
Impact: optimize APIC IPI related barriers

Uncached MMIO accesses for xapic are inherently serializing and hence
we don't need explicit barriers for xapic IPI paths.

x2apic MSR writes/reads don't have serializing semantics and hence need
a serializing instruction or mfence, to make all the previous memory
stores globally visisble before the x2apic msr write for IPI.

Add x2apic_wrmsr_fence() in flush tlb path to x2apic specific paths.

Suresh Siddha 68a8ca593f x86: fix broken irq migration logic while cleaning up multiple vectors
Impact: fix spurious IRQs

During irq migration, we send a low priority interrupt to the previous
irq destination. This happens in non interrupt-remapping case after interrupt
starts arriving at new destination and in interrupt-remapping case after
modifying and flushing the interrupt-remapping table entry caches.

This low priority irq cleanup handler can cleanup multiple vectors, as
multiple irq's can be migrated at almost the same time. While
there will be multiple invocations of irq cleanup handler (one cleanup
IPI for each irq migration), first invocation of the cleanup handler
can potentially cleanup more than one vector (as the first invocation can
see the requests for more than vector cleanup). When we cleanup multiple
vectors during the first invocation of the smp_irq_move_cleanup_interrupt(),
other vectors that are to be cleanedup can still be pending in the local
cpu's IRR (as smp_irq_move_cleanup_interrupt() runs with interrupts disabled).

When we are ready to unhook a vector corresponding to an irq, check if that
vector is registered in the local cpu's IRR. If so skip that cleanup and
do a self IPI with the cleanup vector, so that we give a chance to
service the pending vector interrupt and then cleanup that vector
allocation once we execute the lowest priority handler.

This fixes spurious interrupts seen when migrating multiple vectors
at the same time.

[ This is apparently possible even on conventional xapic, although to
  the best of our knowledge it has never been seen.  The stable
  maintainers may wish to consider this one for -stable. ]
