The code in arch/sparc/prom/memory.c computes three tables, the list
of total memory, the list of available memory (total minus what
firmware is using), and the list of firmware taken memory.
Only the available memory list is even used.
Therefore, kill those unused tables and make prom_meminfo() return
just the available memory list.

The change I put into copy_thread() just papered over the real
problem.
When we are looking to see if we should do a syscall restart, when
deliverying a signal, we should only interpret the syscall return
value as an error if the carry condition code(s) are set.
Otherwise it's a success return.
Also, sigreturn paths should do a pt_regs_clear_trap_type().
It turns out that doing a syscall restart when returning from a fork()
does and should happen, from time to time. Even if copy_thread()
returns success, copy_process() can still unwind and signal
-ERESTARTNOINTR in the parent.

The return from software signal handling pushes code on the stack
that system calls to the kernels cleanup code. This is borrowed
directly from the m68k linux signal handler.
The rt signal case is not quite right for the restricted instruction
set of the ColdFire parts. And neither the normal signal case or rt
signal case properly flushes/pushes the appropriate cache lines.
Rework the return path to just call back through some code fragments
in the kernel proper (with no MMU in the way we can do this). No
cache problems, and less code overall.

Jeff Moyer has identified a case where the autofs4 function
root.c:try_to_fill_dentry() can return -EBUSY when it should return 0.
Jeff's description of the way this happens is:
"automount starts an expire for directory d. after the callout to the daemon,
but before the rmdir, another process tries to walk into the same directory.
It puts itself onto the waitq, pending the expiration.
When the expire finishes, the second process is woken up. In
try_to_fill_dentry, it does this check:
status = d_invalidate(dentry);
if (status != -EBUSY)
return -EAGAIN;
And status is EBUSY. The dentry still has a non-zero d_inode, and the
flags do not contain LOOKUP_CONTINUE or LOOKUP_DIRECTORY
So, we fall through and return -EBUSY to the caller."

Jeff Moyer has identified a race in due to an execution order dependency
in the autofs4 function root.c:try_to_fill_dentry().
Jeff's description of this race is:
"P1 does a lookup of /mount/submount/foo. Since the VFS can't find an entry
for "foo" under /mount/submount, it calls into the autofs4 kernel module to
allocate a new dentry, D1. The kernel creates a new waitq for this lookup and
calls the daemon to perform the mount.
The daemon performs a mkdir of the "foo" directory under /mount/submount,
which ends up creating a *new* dentry, D2.
Then, P2 does a lookup of /mount/submount/foo. The VFS path walking logic
finds a dentry in the dcache, D2, and calls the revalidate function with this.
In the autofs4 revalidate code, we then trigger a mount, since the dentry is
an empty directory that isn't a mountpoint, and so set DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING
and call into the wait code to trigger the mount.
The wait code finds our existing waitq entry (since it is keyed off of the
directory name) and adds itself to the list of waiters.
After the daemon finishes the mount, it calls back into the kernel to release
the waiters. When this happens, P1 is woken up and goes about clearing the
DCACHE_AUTOFS_PENDING flag, but it does this in D1! So, given that P1 in our
case is a program that will immediately try to access a file under
/mount/submount/foo, we end up finding the dentry D2 which still has the
pending flag set, and we set out to wait for a mount *again*!
So, one way to address this is to re-do the lookup at the end of
try_to_fill_dentry, and to clear the pending flag on the hashed dentry. This
seems a sane approach to me."
And Jeff's patch does this.
