While the recent cset 86384d544157db23879064cde36061cdcafc6794 did improve
things it didn't resolve all the problems. So bite the bullet and discard
.exit.text and .exit.data at runtime. Which of course sucks because it
bloats binaries with code that will never ever be used but it's the only
thing that will work reliable as demonstrated by the function sd_major() in
drivers/scsi/sd.c.
Gcc may compile sd_major() using a jump table which it will put into
.rodata. If it also inlines sd_major's function body into exit_sd() which
gcc > 3.4.x does. If CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD has been set to y we would like ld
to discard exit_sd's code at link time. However sd_major happens to
contain a switch statement which gcc will compile using a jump table in
.rodata on the architectures I checked. So, when ld later discards
.exit.text only the jump table in .rodata with its stale references to
the discard .exit.text will be left which any no antique ld will honor
with a link error.

On a CPU with aliases the IDE core needs to flush caches in the special
IDE variants of insw, insl etc. If IDE support is built as a module this
will only work if local_flush_data_cache_page happens is exported as a
module.
As per policy export local_flush_data_cache_page as GPL symbol only.

Currently, each fdtable supports three dynamically-sized arrays of data: the
fdarray and two fdsets. The code allows the number of fds supported by the
fdarray (fdtable->max_fds) to differ from the number of fds supported by each
of the fdsets (fdtable->max_fdset).
In practice, it is wasteful for these two sizes to differ: whenever we hit a
limit on the smaller-capacity structure, we will reallocate the entire fdtable
and all the dynamic arrays within it, so any delta in the memory used by the
larger-capacity structure will never be touched at all.
Rather than hogging this excess, we shouldn't even allocate it in the first
place, and keep the capacities of the fdarray and the fdsets equal. This
patch removes fdtable->max_fdset. As an added bonus, most of the supporting
code becomes simpler.

- relbranch_fixup(), for non-branches, would end up setting
regs->tnpc incorrectly, in fact it would set it equal to
regs->tpc which would cause that instruction to execute twice
Also, if this is not a PC-relative branch, we should just
leave regs->tnpc as-is. This covers cases like 'jmpl' which
branch to absolute values.
- To be absolutely %100 safe, we need to flush the instruction
cache for all assignments to kprobe->ainsn.insn[], including
cases like add_aggr_kprobe()
- prev_kprobe's status field needs to be 'unsigned long' to match
the type of the value it is saving
- jprobes were totally broken:
= jprobe_return() can run in the stack frame of the jprobe handler,
or in an even deeper stack frame, thus we'll be in the wrong
register window than the one from the original probe state.
So unwind using 'restore' instructions, if necessary, right
before we do the jprobe_return() breakpoint trap.
= There is no reason to save/restore the register window saved
at %sp at jprobe trigger time. Those registers cannot be
modified by the jprobe handler. Also, this code was saving
and restoring "sizeof (struct sparc_stackf)" bytes. Depending
upon the caller, this could clobber unrelated stack frame
pieces if there is only a basic 128-byte register window
stored on the stack, without the argument save area.
So just saving and restoring struct pt_regs is sufficient.
= Kill the "jprobe_saved_esp", totally unused.
Also, delete "jprobe_saved_regs_location", with the stack frame
unwind now done explicitly by jprobe_return(), this check is
superfluous.

The new PDA code uses a dummy _proxy_pda variable to describe
memory references to the PDA. It is never referenced
in inline assembly, but exists as input/output arguments.
gcc 4.2 in some cases can CSE references to this which causes
unresolved symbols. Define it to zero to avoid this.

2.6.19 stopped booting (or booted based on build/config) on our x86_64
systems due to a bug introduced in 2.6.19. check_nmi_watchdog schedules an
IPI on all cpus to busy wait on a flag, but fails to set the busywait
flag if NMI functionality is disabled. This causes the secondary cpus
to spin in an endless loop, causing the kernel bootup to hang.
Depending upon the build, the busywait flag got overwritten (stack variable)
and caused the kernel to bootup on certain builds. Following patch fixes
the bug by setting the busywait flag before returning from check_nmi_watchdog.
I guess using a stack variable is not good here as the calling function could
potentially return while the busy wait loop is still spinning on the flag.

This is the grungy swap all the occurrences in the right places patch that
goes with the updates. At this point we have the same functionality as
before (except that sgttyb() returns speeds not zero) and are ready to
begin turning new stuff on providing nobody reports lots of bugs
If you are a tty driver author converting an out of tree driver the only
impact should be termios->ktermios name changes for the speed/property
setting functions from your upper layers.
If you are implementing your own TCGETS function before then your driver
was broken already and its about to get a whole lot more painful for you so
please fix it 8)
Also fill in c_ispeed/ospeed on init for most devices, although the current
code will do this for you anyway but I'd like eventually to lose that extra
paranoia
