Michal Miroslaw reported a problem (bugzilla #7023) where a user initiated
reset while the IDE layer was already resetting the channel caused a crash,
and provided a rough fix.
This is a slightly cleaner version of the fix which tracks the reset state
and blocks further reset requests while a reset is in progress.
Note this is not a security issue - random end users can't access the

Add a step to the IDE PM state machine that reprograms disk PIO timings
as the first step on resume. This prevents ide deadlock on
resume-from-ram on my nforce3-based laptop.
An earlier implementation was written entirely within the amd74xx ide
driver, but Alan helpfully pointed out that this is the correct thing to
do globally. Still, I'm only calling hwif->tuneproc() for disks, based
on two things:
- The existing state machine is already passed over for non-disk drives
- Previous testing on my laptop shows that the hangs are related only
to the disk - suspend/resume from a livecd showed that there's no
need for this on the cdrom.

There are three flags being set by default by the PIIX driver for speeds >
PIO 1, and one not being cleared properly on fallback to PIO0. The most
important one is the prefetch/post write control which only works for ATA
and can do bad things with ATAPI.
The patch does its best to set the flags correctly for drivers/ide. Its
not 100% perfect but its closer than the original. 100% perfect requires
proper IORDY handling but this isn't critical (and its not right in libata
either .. yet)

BTW, there's quite obvious error here which leads to access outside of
timings[] if somebody passes PIO mode 5 (or autotuning code finds out that
drive supports PIO mode 5). Could have been fixed while at it... Those drives
should be rare, though...

Force /sbin/init off isolated cpus (unless every CPU is specified as an
isolcpu).
Users seem to think that the isolated CPUs shouldn't have much running on
them to begin with. That's fair enough: intuitive, I guess. It also means
that the cpu affinity masks of tasks will not include isolcpus by default,
which is also more intuitive, perhaps.
/sbin/init is spawned from the boot CPU's idle thread, and /sbin/init
starts the rest of userspace. So if the boot CPU is specified to be an
isolcpu, then prior to this patch, all of userspace will be run there.
(throw in a couple of plausible devinit -> cpuinit conversions I spotted
while we're here).

These patches make the kernel pass 64-bit inode numbers internally when
communicating to userspace, even on a 32-bit system. They are required
because some filesystems have intrinsic 64-bit inode numbers: NFS3+ and XFS
for example. The 64-bit inode numbers are then propagated to userspace
automatically where the arch supports it.
Problems have been seen with userspace (eg: ld.so) using the 64-bit inode
number returned by stat64() or getdents64() to differentiate files, and
failing because the 64-bit inode number space was compressed to 32-bits, and
so overlaps occur.
This patch:
Make filldir_t take a 64-bit inode number and struct kstat carry a 64-bit
inode number so that 64-bit inode numbers can be passed back to userspace.
The stat functions then returns the full 64-bit inode number where
available and where possible. If it is not possible to represent the inode
number supplied by the filesystem in the field provided by userspace, then
error EOVERFLOW will be issued.
Similarly, the getdents/readdir functions now pass the full 64-bit inode
number to userspace where possible, returning EOVERFLOW instead when a
directory entry is encountered that can't be properly represented.
Note that this means that some inodes will not be stat'able on a 32-bit
system with old libraries where they were before - but it does mean that
there will be no ambiguity over what a 32-bit inode number refers to.
Note similarly that directory scans may be cut short with an error on a
32-bit system with old libraries where the scan would work before for the
same reasons.
It is judged unlikely that this situation will occur because modern glibc
uses 64-bit capable versions of stat and getdents class functions
exclusively, and that older systems are unlikely to encounter
unrepresentable inode numbers anyway.
