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
get_unmapped_area* functions need to check for -ENOMEM from the
arch_get_unmapped_area*, upgrade the page table and retry.

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.

pfn_valid() actually checks for a valid struct page and not for a
valid pfn. Using xip mappings w/o struct pages, this will result in
-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.

The default values for SD_MC_INIT cause an additional cpu usage of up
to 40% on some network benchmarks compared to the plain SD_CPU_INIT
values. So just define SD_MC_INIT to SD_CPU_INIT.

The implementation of __div64_31 for G5 machines is broken. The comments
in __div64_31 are correct, only the code does not do what the comments
say. The part "If the remainder has overflown subtract base and increase
the quotient" is only partially realized, the base is subtracted correctly
but the quotient is only increased if the dividend had the last bit set.
Using the correct instruction fixes the problem.

Don't boost at the addresses which are listed on exception tables,
because major page fault will occur on those addresses. In that case,
kprobes can not ensure that when instruction buffer can be freed since
some processes will sleep on the buffer.

Since we now set _PAGE_COHERENT in the Linux PTE we shouldn't be clearing
it out before we setup the SW TLB. Today all the SW TLB machines
(603/e300) that we support are non-SMP, however there are some errata on
some devices that cause us to set _PAGE_COHERENT via CPU_FTR_NEED_COHERENT.

In order for ntpd to correctly synchronize the clocks, the frequency of
the system clock must not be off by more than 500 ppm (or, put another
way, 1:2000), or ntpd will end up giving up on trying to synchronize
properly, and ends up reseting the clock in jumps instead.
The fast TSC PIT calibration sometimes failed this test - it was
assuming that the PIT reads always took about one microsecond each (2us
for the two reads to get a 16-bit timer), and that calibrating TSC to
the PIT over 15ms should thus be sufficient to get much closer than
500ppm (max 2us error on both sides giving 4us over 15ms: a 270 ppm
error value).
However, that assumption does not always hold: apparently some hardware
is either very much slower at reading the PIT registers, or there was
other noise causing at least one machine to get 700+ ppm errors.
So instead of using a fixed 15ms timing loop, this changes the fast PIT
calibration to read the TSC delta over the individual PIT timer reads,
and use the result to calculate the error bars on the PIT read timing
properly. We then successfully calibrate the TSC only if the maximum
error bars fall below 500ppm.
In the process, we also relax the timing to allow up to 25ms for the
calibration, although it can happen much faster depending on hardware.

During bootup, when we reprogram the PIT (programmable interval timer)
to start counting down from 0xffff in order to use it for the fast TSC
calibration, we should also make sure to delay a bit afterwards to allow
the PIT hardware to actually start counting with the new value.
That will happens at the next CLK pulse (1.193182 MHz), so the easiest
way to do that is to just wait at least one microsecond after
programming the new PIT counter value. We do that by just reading the
counter value back once - which will take about 2us on PC hardware.

Convert the PS3 Video RAM Storage Driver from an MTD driver to a plain block
device driver.
The ps3vram driver exposes unused video RAM on the PS3 as a block device
suitable for storage or swap. Fast data transfer is achieved using a local
cache in system RAM and DMA transfers via the GPU.
The new driver is ca. 50% faster for reading, and ca. 10% for writing.

It is currently impossible to run a user-mode linux machine inside another
user-mode linux (UML on UML). It breaks after a few instructions. When
it tries to check whether SYSEMU is installed (the inner) UML receives an
inconsistent result (from the outer UML).
This is the output of a broken attempt:
$ ./linux mem=256m ubd0=cow
Locating the bottom of the address space ... 0x0
Locating the top of the address space ... 0xc0000000
Core dump limits :
soft - 0
hard - NONE
Checking that ptrace can change system call numbers...OK
Checking ptrace new tags for syscall emulation...unsupported
Checking syscall emulation patch for ptrace...check_sysemu : expected SIGTRAP, got status = 256
$
The problem is the following:
PTRACE_SYSCALL/SINGLESTEP is currently managed inside arch_ptrace for ARCH=um.
PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP is not captured in arch_ptrace's switch,
therefore it is erroneously passed back to ptrace_request (in
kernel/ptrace).
This simple patch simply forces ptrace to return an error on
PTRACE_SYSEMU/SUSEMU_SINGLESTEP as it is unsupported on ARCH=um, and fixes
the problem.

The current use of these macros works well when the conversion is
entirely linear. In this case, we can be assured that the following
holds true:
__va(p + s) - s = __va(p)
However, this is not always the case, especially when there is a
non-linear conversion (eg, when there is a 3.5GB hole in memory.)
In this case, if 's' is the size of the region (eg, PAGE_SIZE) and
'p' is the final page, the above is most definitely not true.
So, we must ensure that __va() and __pa() are only used with valid
kernel direct mapped RAM addresses. This patch tweaks the code
to achieve this.
