As noted by Olof Johansson <olof@lixom.net>:
"A recent patch changed the way the LPAR bit is checked during early
boot. This resulted in a polarity change in a conditional branch
without changing the branch, causing at least some legacy machines to
not boot."
This fixes it.

Pavel Emelianov and Kirill Korotaev observe that fs and arch users of
security_vm_enough_memory tend to forget to vm_unacct_memory when a
failure occurs further down (typically in setup_arg_pages variants).
These are all users of insert_vm_struct, and that reservation will only
be unaccounted on exit if the vma is marked VM_ACCOUNT: which in some
cases it is (hidden inside VM_STACK_FLAGS) and in some cases it isn't.
So x86_64 32-bit and ppc64 vDSO ELFs have been leaking memory into
Committed_AS each time they're run. But don't add VM_ACCOUNT to them,
it's inappropriate to reserve against the very unlikely case that gdb
be used to COW a vDSO page - we ought to do something about that in
do_wp_page, but there are yet other inconsistencies to be resolved.
The safe and economical way to fix this is to let insert_vm_struct do
the security_vm_enough_memory check when it finds VM_ACCOUNT is set.
And the MIPS irix_brk has been calling security_vm_enough_memory before
calling do_brk which repeats it, doubly accounting and so also leaking.
Remove that, and all the fs and arch calls to security_vm_enough_memory:
give it a less misleading name later on.

My patch "Separate pci bits out of struct device_node" (commit
1635317facea3094ddf34082cd86797efb1d9f7e) had the unfortunate
side-effect that it stopped eeh_init() from working correctly.
It needs the pointers set up by find_and_init_phbs(), but it was being
called just before find_and_init_phbs(). That meant that we didn't
enable EEH (pSeries PCI error recovery) on any devices, and that meant
that on POWER5 systems, the hypervisor wouldn't let us enable memory or
I/O space access to any devices, and their drivers got somewhat
confused.
This fixes it by moving the eeh_init call after find_and_init_phbs.
Tested on a POWER5 partition.

The ptrace get and set methods for VMX/Altivec registers present in the
ppc tree were missing for ppc64. This patch adds the 32-bit and
64-bit methods. Updated with the suggestions from Anton following the lines
of his code snippet.
Added:
- flush_altivec_to_thread calls as suggested by Anton
- piecewise copy of structure to preserve 32-bit vrsave data as per
Anton
(I consolidated the 32 and 64bit versions with 2 helper macros - Anton)

This adds code which gives us the option on ppc64 of instantiating the
PCI tree (the tree of pci_bus and pci_dev structs) from the Open
Firmware device tree rather than by probing PCI configuration space.
The OF device tree has a node for each PCI device and bridge in the
system, with properties that tell us what addresses the firmware has
configured for them and other details.
There are a couple of reasons why this is needed. First, on systems
with a hypervisor, there is a PCI-PCI bridge per slot under the PCI
host bridges. These PCI-PCI bridges have special isolation features
for virtualization. We can't write to their config space, and we are
not supposed to be reading their config space either. The firmware
tells us about the address ranges that they pass in the OF device
tree.
Secondly, on powermacs, the interrupt controller is in a PCI device
that may be behind a PCI-PCI bridge. If we happened to take an
interrupt just at the point when the device or a bridge on the path to
it was disabled for probing, we would crash when we try to access the
interrupt controller.
I have implemented a platform-specific function which is called for
each PCI bridge (host or PCI-PCI) to say whether the code should look
in the device tree or use normal PCI probing for the devices under
that bridge. On pSeries machines we use the device tree if we're
running under a hypervisor, otherwise we use normal probing. On
powermacs we use normal probing for the AGP bridge, since the device
for the AGP bridge itself isn't shown in the device tree (at least on
my G5), and the device tree for everything else.
This has been tested on a dual G5 powermac, a partition on a POWER5
machine (running under the hypervisor), and a legacy iSeries
partition.

The pciconfig_iobase, pciconfig_read and pciconfig_write system calls
were only implemented for 32-bit processes; for 64-bit processes they
returned an ENOSYS error. This allows them to be used by 64-bit
processes as well. The X server uses pciconfig_iobase at least, and
this change is necessary to allow a 64-bit X server to work on my G5.

This patch pulls the PCI-related junk out of struct device_node and
puts it in a separate structure, struct pci_dn. The device_node now
just has a void * pointer in it, which points to a struct pci_dn for
nodes that represent PCI devices. It could potentially be used in
future for device-specific data for other sorts of devices, such as
virtual I/O devices.

Currently, we set the class bit in kernel SLB entries, and clear it on
user SLB entries. On POWER5, ERAT entries created in real mode have
the class bit clear. So to avoid flushing kernel ERAT entries on each
context switch, this patch inverts our usage of the class bit, setting
it on user SLB entries and clearing it on kernel SLB entries.
Booted on POWER5 and G5.
