Scrap the local __INLINE__ macro, and rename timeval_cmp to fasttime_cmp.
Inline macro was completely unnecessary since the macro was defined
locally to be inline.
timeval_cmp was inaccurately named since it does comparison on
struct fasttimer_t and not on struct timeval.

These are needed due to a cache bug, and can be used to make sure that the
DMA descriptors are flushed to memory and can be safely handled by DMA.
flush_dma_descr - Flush one DMA descriptor.
flush_dma_list - Flush a complete list of DMA descriptors.
cris_flush_cache - Flush the complete cache.
cris_flush_cache_range - Flush only the specified range

Improve and bugfix CRIS v10 fast timers.
- irq_handler_t now only takes two arguments.
- Keep interrupts disabled as long as we have a reference to the
fasttimer list and only enable them while doing the callback.
del_fast_timer may be called from other interrupt context.
- Fix bug where debug code could return without calling local_irq_restore.
- Use jiffies instead of usec (change from struct timeval to fasttime_t).
- Don't initialize static variables to zero.
- Remove obsolete #ifndef DECLARE_WAITQUEUE code.
- fast_timer_init should be __initcall.
- Change status/debug variables to unsigned.
- Remove CVS log and CVS id.

Corrects compile errors and the following:
- Remove oldset parameter from do_signal and do_notify_resume.
- Modified to fit new consolidated IRQ handling code.
- Reverse check order between external nmi and watchdog nmi to avoid false
watchdog oops in case of a glitch on the nmi pin.
- Return from an pin-generated NMI the same way as for other interrupts.
- Moved blocking of ethernet rx/tx irq from ethernet interrupt handler to
low-level asm interrupt handlers. Fixed in the multiple interrupt
handler also.
- Add space for thread local storage in thread_info struct.
- Add NO_DMA to Kconfig, and include arch specific Kconfig using arch
independent path. Include subsystem Kconfigs for pcmcia, usb, i2c,

Fix regression introduced with d435d862baca3e25e5eec236762a43251b1e7ffc
("cpu hotplug: mce: fix cpu hotplug error handling").
A CPU which was not brought up during boot (using maxcpus and
additional_cpus parameters) couldn't be onlined anymore. For such a CPU it
seemed that MCE was not supported during CPU_UP_PREPARE-time which caused
mce_cpu_callback to return NOTIFY_BAD to notifier_call_chain. To fix this
we:
- call mce_create_device for CPU_ONLINE event (instead of CPU_UP_PREPARE),
- avoid mce_remove_device() for the CPU that is not correctly initialized
by mce_create_device() failure,
- make mce_cpu_callback always return NOTIFY_OK for CPU_ONLINE event.
Because CPU_ONLINE callback return value is always ignored.

The spurious IRQ testing in request_irq is mishandled in um_request_irq, which
sets the incoming file descriptors non-blocking only after request_irq
succeeds. This results in the spurious irq calling read on a blocking

i386 and x86-64 registers System RAM as IORESOURCE_MEM | IORESOURCE_BUSY.
But ia64 registers it as IORESOURCE_MEM only.
In addition, memory hotplug code registers new memory as IORESOURCE_MEM too.
This difference causes a failure of memory unplug of x86-64. This patch
fixes it.
This patch adds IORESOURCE_BUSY to avoid potential overlap mapping by PCI

The patch "KVM: fix !SMP build error" change the way smp_call_function()
actually uses the passed in function names on non-SMP builds. So
previously it was never caught that the function passed in was never
actually defined.
This causes a build error on ppc64_defconfig + CONFIG_SMP=n:
arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c: In function 'pgtable_free_now':
arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: 'pte_free_smp_sync' undeclared (first use in this function)
arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
arch/powerpc/mm/tlb_64.c:71: error: for each function it appears in.)
So we need to define it even if CONFIG_SMP is off. Either that or ifdef
out the smp_call_function() call, but that's ugly.

The context switch code in the kernel issues a dummy stwcx. to clear the
reservation, as recommended by the architecture. However, some processors
can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation
is already held to a different address B. To avoid this problem, the dummy
stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address.
This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate
which cpus are affected. Tested on mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig in
arch/powerpc; build tested in arch/ppc.

After unification of the Kconfig files and
introducing K64BIT support in kconfig
it required only trivial changes to enable
"make ARCH=x86".
With this patch you can build for x86_64 in several ways:
1) make ARCH=x86_64
2) make ARCH=x86 K64BIT=y
3) make ARCH=x86 menuconfig
=> select 64-bit
Likewise for i386 with the addition that
i386 is default is you say ARCH=x86.

restore sigcontext is taking a DNA exception while restoring FP context
from the user stack, during the sigreturn. Appended patch fixes it by
doing clts() if the app doesn't touch FP during the signal handler
execution. This will stop generating a DNA, during the fxrstor in the
sigreturn.

[ jdike - Pushing Chuck's patch - see
http://lkml.org/lkml/2005/9/16/261 for some history and a test
program. UML is also broken without this patch - its processes get
SIGBUS from the corrupt 6th argument to mmap being interpretted as a
file offset ]
When the 32-bit vDSO is used to make a system call, the %ebp register for
the 6th syscall arg has to be loaded from the user stack (where it's pushed
by the vDSO user code). The native i386 kernel always does this before
stopping for syscall tracing, so %ebp can be seen and modified via ptrace
to access the 6th syscall argument. The x86-64 kernel fails to do this,
presenting the stack address to ptrace instead. This makes the %rbp value
seen by 64-bit ptrace of a 32-bit process, and the %ebp value seen by a
32-bit caller of ptrace, both differ from the native i386 behavior.
This patch fixes the problem by putting the word loaded from the user stack
into %rbp before calling syscall_trace_enter, and reloading the 6th syscall
argument from there afterwards (so ptrace can change it). This makes the
behavior match that of i386 kernels.

The addr argument to PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA and PTRACE_SET_THREAD_AREA is
not a magic constant. It's derived from the segment register values being
used, which are computed originally from the index used with set_thread_area.
The value does not need to match what a native i386 kernel would accept.
It needs to match the segment selectors that can actually be in use in this
32-bit process. The 64-bit ptrace support for PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA
(normally used only on 32-bit processes) is correct, but the 32-bit emulation
of ptrace is broken.
