if nosmp has been passed as a boot option, but nmi_watchdog=2 has also
been enabled then keep minimal local APIC functionality around to make
the watchdog work.
this allowed me to debug a hard hang that would only occur with a nosmp
bootup.

Since the 64bit kernel has different indexes for this TLS segments

It fixes the warning message in smp_call_function*(), which should not be

One more of these issues (which were considered fixed a few releases
back): other than on x86-64, i386 allows set_fixmap() to replace
already present mappings. Consequently, on PAE, care must be taken to
not update the high half of a pte while the low half is still holding
the old value.

Fix following section mismatch warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0xc88c): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:trap_init_f00f_bug (between 'init_intel' and 'cpuid4_cache_lookup')
init_intel are __cpuint where trap_init_f00f_bug is __init.
Fixed by declaring trap_init_f00f_bug __cpuinit.
Moved the defintion of trap_init_f00f_bug to the sole user in init.c
so the ugly prototype in intel.c could get killed.

Fix bugzilla #8679
WARNING: arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.data+0x2148): Section mismatch: reference
to .init.text: (between 'thermal_throttle_cpu_notifier' and 'mtrr_mutex')
comes because struct notifier_block thermal_throttle_cpu_notifier in
arch/i386/kernel/cpu/mcheck/therm_throt.c goes in .data section but the
notifier callback function itself has been marked __cpuinit which becomes
__init == .init.text when HOTPLUG_CPU=n. The warning is bogus because the
callback will never be called out if HOTPLUG_CPU=n in the first place (as
one can see from kernel/cpu.c, the cpu_chain itself is __cpuinitdata :-)
So, let's mark thermal_throttle_cpu_notifier as __cpuinitdata to fix
the section mismatch warning.

Userland, including the C library and the dynamic linker, is keen to use
the SYNC instruction, even for "generic" MIPS I binaries these days.
Which makes it less than useful on MIPS I processors.
This change adds the emulation, but as our do_ri() infrastructure was not
really prepared to take yet another instruction, I have rewritten it and
its callees slightly as follows.
Now there is only a single place a possible signal is thrown from. The
place is at the end of do_ri(). The instruction word is fetched in
do_ri() and passed down to handlers. The handlers are called in sequence
and return a result that lets the caller decide upon further processing.
If the result is positive, then the handler has picked the instruction,
but a signal should be thrown and the result is the signal number. If the
result is zero, then the handler has successfully simulated the
instruction. If the result is negative, then the handler did not handle
the instruction; to make it more obvious the calls do not follow the usual
0/-Exxx result convention they now return -1 instead of -EFAULT.
The calculation of the return EPC is now at the beginning. The reason is
it is easier to handle it there as emulation callees may modify a register
and an instruction may be located in delay slot of a branch whose result
depends on the register. It has to be undone if a signal is to be raised,
but it is not a problem as this is the slow-path case, and both actions
are done in single places now rather than the former being scattered
through emulation handlers.
The part of do_cpu() being covered follows the changes to do_ri().

Remove the old-fashioned lk201 driver under drivers/tc/ that used to be
used by the old dz.c and zs.c drivers, which is now orphan code referred to
from nowhere and does not build anymore. A modern replacement is available
as drivers/input/keyboard/lkkbd.c.
There are no plans to do anything about this piece of code and it does not
fit anywhere anymore, so it is not just a matter of maintenance or the lack
of. There are still some bits that might be added to the new lkkbd.c
driver based on the old code, and the embedded hardware documentation which
is otherwise quite hard to get hold of might be useful to keep too. Both
of these can be done separately though. RIP.

dma_cache_(wback|inv|wback_inv) were the earliest attempt on a generalized
cache managment API for I/O purposes. Originally it was basically the raw
MIPS low level cache API exported to the entire world. The API has
suffered from a lack of documentation, was not very widely used unlike it's
more modern brothers and can easily be replaced by dma_cache_sync. So
remove it rsp. turn the surviving bits back into an arch private API, as
discussed on linux-arch.

This patch set frees the restriction that makedumpfile users should install a
vmlinux file (including the debugging information) into each system.
makedumpfile command is the dump filtering feature for kdump. It creates a
small dumpfile by filtering unnecessary pages for the analysis. To
distinguish unnecessary pages, it needs a vmlinux file including the debugging
information. These days, the debugging package becomes a huge file, and it is
hard to install it into each system.
To solve the problem, kdump developers discussed it at lkml and kexec-ml. As
the result, we reached the conclusion that necessary information for dump
filtering (called "vmcoreinfo") should be embedded into the first kernel file
and it should be accessed through /proc/vmcore during the second kernel.
(http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0707.0/1806.html)
Dan Aloni created the patch set for the above implementation.

For some time /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern has been able to set its output
destination as a pipe, allowing a user space helper to receive and
intellegently process a core. This infrastructure however has some
shortcommings which can be enhanced. Specifically:
1) The coredump code in the kernel should ignore RLIMIT_CORE limitation
when core_pattern is a pipe, since file system resources are not being
consumed in this case, unless the user application wishes to save the core,
at which point the app is restricted by usual file system limits and
restrictions.
2) The core_pattern code should be able to parse and pass options to the
user space helper as an argv array. The real core limit of the uid of the
crashing proces should also be passable to the user space helper (since it
is overridden to zero when called).
3) Some miscellaneous bugs need to be cleaned up (specifically the
recognition of a recursive core dump, should the user mode helper itself
crash. Also, the core dump code in the kernel should not wait for the user
mode helper to exit, since the same context is responsible for writing to
the pipe, and a read of the pipe by the user mode helper will result in a
deadlock.
This patch:
Remove the check of RLIMIT_CORE if core_pattern is a pipe. In the event that
core_pattern is a pipe, the entire core will be fed to the user mode helper.

Remove the rmb() from mce_log(), since the immunized version of
rcu_dereference() makes it unnecessary.

list_del() hardly can fail, so checking for return value is pointless
(and current code always return 0).
Nobody really cared that return value anyway.

Switch single-linked binfmt formats list to usual list_head's. This leads
to one-liners in register_binfmt() and unregister_binfmt(). The downside
is one pointer more in struct linux_binfmt. This is not a problem, since
the set of registered binfmts on typical box is very small -- (ELF +
something distro enabled for you).
Test-booted, played with executable .txt files, modprobe/rmmod binfmt_misc.

Move the OOM killer's extern function prototypes to include/linux/oom.h and
include it where necessary.

Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used. And
the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions. The object
pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer.
Convert
ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags)
to
ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object)
throughout the kernel

Update dump_task_altivec() (which has so far never been put to use) so that
it dumps the Altivec/VMX registers (VR[0] - VR[31], VSCR and VRSAVE) in the
same format as the ptrace get_vrregs(), and add the appropriate glue
typedef and #defines to make it work.
A new note type of NT_PPC_VMX was chosen to be 0x100 (arbitrarily) because
it allows the low range values to be used for more generic purposes and
0x100 seems an adequate starting point for PowerPC extensions.

Replace NT_PRXFPREG with ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE in the coredump code which
allows for more flexibility in the note type for the state of 'extended
floating point' implementations in coredumps. New note types can now be
added with an appropriate #define.
This does #define ELF_CORE_XFPREG_TYPE to be NT_PRXFPREG in all
current users so there's are no change in behaviour.
This will let us use different note types on powerpc for the Altivec/VMX
state that some PowerPC cpus have (G4, PPC970, POWER6) and for the SPE
(signal processing extension) state that some embedded PowerPC cpus from
Freescale have.
