Blindly setting _PAGE_PRESENT in disarm_kmmio_fault_page() overlooks the
possibility, that the page was not present when it was armed.
Make arm_kmmio_fault_page() store the previous page presence in struct
kmmio_fault_page and use it on disarm.
This patch was originally written by Stuart Bennett, but Pekka Paalanen
rewrote it a little different.

Print a full warning once, if arming or disarming a page fails.
Also, if initial arming fails, do not handle the page further. This
avoids the possibility of a page failing to arm and then later claiming
to have handled any fault on that page.

Apparently pages far into an ioremapped region might not actually be
mapped during ioremap(). Add an optional read test to try to trigger a
multiply faulting MMIO access. Also add more messages to the kernel log
to help debugging.
This patch is based on a patch suggested by
Stuart Bennett <stuart@freedesktop.org>
who discovered bugs in mmiotrace related to normal kernel space faults.

Check the read values against the written values in the MMIO read/write
test. This test shows if the given MMIO test area really works as
memory, which is a prerequisite for a successful mmiotrace test.

Now that the musb build fixes for DaVinci got merged (RC3?), kick in
the other bits needed to get it finally *working* in mainline:
- Use clk_enable()/clk_disable() ... the "always enable USB clocks"
code this originally relied on has since been removed.
- Initialize the USB device only after the relevant I2C GPIOs are
available, so the host side can properly enable VBUS.
- Tweak init sequencing to cope with mainline's relatively late init
of the I2C system bus for power switches, transceivers, and so on.
Sanity tested on DM6664 EVM for host and peripheral modes; that system
won't boot with CONFIG_PM enabled, so OTG can't yet be tested. Also
verified on OMAP3.

The PCI 2.x cells used on some 44x SoCs only let us configure the decode
for the low 32-bit of the incoming PLB addresses. The top 4 bits (this
is a 36-bit bus) are hard wired to different values depending on the
specific SoC in use. Our code used to work "by accident" until I added
support for the ISA memory holes and while at it added more validity
checking of the addresses.
This patch should bring it back to working condition. It still relies
on the device-tree being correct but that's somewhat a pre-requisite
for anything to work anyway.

This fixes a regression introduced by commit
25d6e2d7c5 ("powerpc: Update 64bit memcpy()
using CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD").
This commit allowed CPUs that have the CPU_FTR_UNALIGNED_LD_STD CPU
feature bit present to do the memcpy() with unaligned load doubles. But,
along with this came a bug where our final load double would read bytes
beyond a page boundary and into the next (unmapped) page. This was caught
by enabling CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC,
The fix was to read only the number of bytes that we need to store rather
than reading a full 8-byte doubleword and storing only a portion of that.
In order to minimise the amount of existing code touched we use the
original do_tail for the src_unaligned case.
Below is an example of the regression, as reported by Sachin Sant:

Right now nobody cares, but the suspend/resume code will eventually want
to suspend device interrupts without suspending the timer, and will
depend on this flag to know.
The modern x86 timer infrastructure uses the local APIC timers and never
shows up as a device interrupt at all, so it isn't affected and doesn't
need any of this.

As acpi_enter_sleep_state can fail, take this into account in
do_suspend_lowlevel and don't return to the do_suspend_lowlevel's
caller. This would break (currently) fpu status and preempt count.
Technically, this means use `call' instead of `jmp' and `jmp' to
the `resume_point' after the `call' (i.e. if
acpi_enter_sleep_state returns=fails). `resume_point' will handle
the restore of fpu and preempt count gracefully.

However, this function (and its successors) was flagged __cpuinit,

Steven Rostedt found a bug in where in his modified kernel
ftrace was unable to modify the kernel text, due to the PMD
itself having been marked read-only as well in
split_large_page().
The fix, suggested by Linus, is to not try to 'clone' the
reference protection of a huge-page, but to use the standard
(and permissive) page protection bits of KERNPG_TABLE.
The 'cloning' makes sense for the ptes but it's a confused and
incorrect concept at the page table level - because the
pagetable entry is a set of all ptes and hence cannot
'clone' any single protection attribute - the ptes can be any
mixture of protections.
With the permissive KERNPG_TABLE, even if the pte protections
get changed after this point (due to ftrace doing code-patching
or other similar activities like kprobes), the resulting combined
protections will still be correct and the pte's restrictive
(or permissive) protections will control it.
Also update the comment.
This bug was there for a long time but has not caused visible
problems before as it needs a rather large read-only area to
trigger. Steve possibly hacked his kernel with some really
large arrays or so. Anyway, the bug is definitely worth fixing.
[ Huang Ying also experienced problems in this area when writing
the EFI code, but the real bug in split_large_page() was not
realized back then. ]

The second call to cpu_clear() is redundant, as we've already removed

This reverts commit e7b140365b.
Commit e7b14036 removes the targetted disabled CPU from the
cpu_online_map after calls to migrate_platform_irqs and fixup_irqs.
Paul McKenney states that the reasoning behind the patch was to
prevent irq handlers from running on CPUs marked offline because:
RCU happily ignores CPUs that don't have their bits set in
cpu_online_map, so if there are RCU read-side critical sections
in the irq handlers being run, RCU will ignore them. If the
other CPUs were running, they might sequence through the RCU
state machine, which could result in data structures being
yanked out from under those irq handlers, which in turn could
result in oopses or worse.
Unfortunately, both ia64 functions above look at cpu_online_map to find
a new CPU to migrate interrupts onto. This means we can potentially
migrate an interrupt off ourself back to... ourself. Uh oh.
This causes an oops when we finally try to process pending interrupts on
the CPU we want to disable. The oops results from calling __do_IRQ with
a NULL pt_regs:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference (address 0000000000000040)

I don't like this revert because it is fragile. ia64 is getting lucky
because we seem to only ever process timer interrupts in this path, but
if we ever race with an IPI here, we definitely use RCU and have the
potential of hitting an oops that Paul describes above.
Patching ia64's timer_interrupt() to check for NULL pt_regs is
insufficient though, as we still hit the above oops.
As a short term solution, I do think that this revert is the right
answer. The revert hold up under repeated testing (24+ hour test runs)
with this setup:
- 8-way rx6600
- randomly toggling CPU online/offline state every 2 seconds
- running CPU exercisers, memory hog, disk exercisers, and
network stressors
- average system load around ~160
In the long term, we really need to figure out why we set pt_regs = NULL
in ia64_process_pending_intr(). If it turns out that it is unnecessary
to do so, then we could safely re-introduce e7b14036 (along with some
other logic to be smarter about migrating interrupts).
One final note: x86 also removes the disabled CPU from cpu_online_map
and then re-enables interrupts for 1ms, presumably to handle any pending
interrupts:
arch/x86/kernel/irq_32.c (and irq_64.c):
cpu_disable_common:
[remove cpu from cpu_online_map]
fixup_irqs():
for_each_irq:
[break CPU affinities]
local_irq_enable();
mdelay(1);
local_irq_disable();
So they are doing implicitly what ia64 is doing explicitly.

BTE_MAX_XFER is wrong. It is one greater than the number of cache
lines the BTE is actually able to transfer. If you request a transfer
of exactly BTE_MAX_XFER size, you trip a very cryptic BUG_ON() which
should certainly be made more clear.
This patch fixes that constant and also cleans up the BUG_ON()s in
arch/ia64/sn/kernel/bte.c to test one condition per line.

ia64 only defines __early_pfn_to_nid() for SPARSEMEM && NUMA configurations,
so the recent:
commit: f2dbcfa738
mm: clean up for early_pfn_to_nid()
ends up with some link problems for certain configuration files.
Fix arch/ia64/Kconfig to only define HAVE_ARCH_EARLY_PFN_TO_NID in the
cases where we do provide this function.
