XScale cores either have a DSP coprocessor (which contains a single
40 bit accumulator register), or an iWMMXt coprocessor (which contains
eight 64 bit registers.)
Because of the small amount of state in the DSP coprocessor, access to
the DSP coprocessor (CP0) is always enabled, and DSP context switching
is done unconditionally on every task switch. Access to the iWMMXt
coprocessor (CP0/CP1) is enabled only when an iWMMXt instruction is
first issued, and iWMMXt context switching is done lazily.
CONFIG_IWMMXT is supposed to mean 'the cpu we will be running on will
have iWMMXt support', but boards are supposed to select this config
symbol by hand, and at least one pxa27x board doesn't get this right,
so on that board, proc-xscale.S will incorrectly assume that we have a
DSP coprocessor, enable CP0 on boot, and we will then only save the
first iWMMXt register (wR0) on context switches, which is Bad.
This patch redefines CONFIG_IWMMXT as 'the cpu we will be running on
might have iWMMXt support, and we will enable iWMMXt context switching
if it does.' This means that with this patch, running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=n
kernel on an iWMMXt-capable CPU will no longer potentially corrupt iWMMXt
state over context switches, and running a CONFIG_IWMMXT=y kernel on a
non-iWMMXt capable CPU will still do DSP context save/restore.
These changes should make iWMMXt work on PXA3xx, and as a side effect,
enable proper acc0 save/restore on non-iWMMXt capable xsc3 cores such
as IOP13xx and IXP23xx (which will not have CONFIG_CPU_XSCALE defined),
as well as setting and using HWCAP_IWMMXT properly.

Remove ARM local cache of 4 struct thread_info.
Can cause oops under certain circumstances.
Russell indicated the original optimization was
required on older kernels to avoid thread starvation
on memory fragmentation, but may no longer be
required. I've updated the patch to 19rc4 and
ensured no <config.h> dain-bramage slipped in this
time (sorry about that).
Original description follows:
I was given some test results which pointed to an
Oops in alloc_thread_info (happened 2x), and after
looking at the code, I see that ARM has its own
local cache of 4 struct thread_info. There wasn't
any clear (to me) synchronization between the
alloc_thread_info and the free_thread_info.
I looked over the other arch, and they all simply
allocate them on an as needed basis, so I simplified
the ARM to do the same, based on the other arch
(e.g. PPC) and the folks doing the testing have
indicated that this fixed the oops.

MAX_HEADER is either set to LL_MAX_HEADER or LL_MAX_HEADER + 48, and
this is controlled by a set of CONFIG_* ifdef tests.
It is trying to use LL_MAX_HEADER + 48 when any of the tunnels are
enabled which set hard_header_len like this:
dev->hard_header_len = LL_MAX_HEADER + sizeof(struct xxx);
The correct set of tunnel drivers which do this are:
ipip
ip_gre
ip6_tunnel
sit
so make the ifdef test match.

You wouldn't think that doing an ALIGN() macro that aligns something up
to a power-of-two boundary would be likely to have bugs, would you?
But hey, in the wonderful world of mixing integer types, you have to be
careful. This just makes sure that the alignment is interpreted in the
same type as the thing to be aligned.
Thanks to Roland Dreier, who noticed that the amso1100 driver got broken
by the previous fix (that just extended the mask to "unsigned long", but
was still broken in "unsigned long long" - it just happened to be the
same on 64-bit architectures).

Make it break or warn if you pass to spin_lock_irqsave() and friends
something different from "unsigned long flags;". Suprisingly large amount
of these was caught by recent commit
c53421b18f205c5f97c604ae55c6a921f034b0f6 and others.
Idea is largely from FRV typechecking. Suggestions from Andrew Morton.
All stupid typos in first version fixed.
Passes allmodconfig on i386, x86_64, alpha, arm as well as my usual config.
Note #1: checking with sparse is still needed, because a driver can save
and pass around flags or something. So far patch is very intrusive.
Note #2: techically, we should break only if
sizeof(flags) < sizeof(unsigned long),
however, the more pain for getting suspicious code into kernel,
the better.

(David:)
If hugetlbfs_file_mmap() returns a failure to do_mmap_pgoff() - for example,
because the given file offset is not hugepage aligned - then do_mmap_pgoff
will go to the unmap_and_free_vma backout path.
But at this stage the vma hasn't been marked as hugepage, and the backout path
will call unmap_region() on it. That will eventually call down to the
non-hugepage version of unmap_page_range(). On ppc64, at least, that will
cause serious problems if there are any existing hugepage pagetable entries in
the vicinity - for example if there are any other hugepage mappings under the
same PUD. unmap_page_range() will trigger a bad_pud() on the hugepage pud
entries. I suspect this will also cause bad problems on ia64, though I don't
have a machine to test it on.
(Hugh:)
prepare_hugepage_range() should check file offset alignment when it checks
virtual address and length, to stop MAP_FIXED with a bad huge offset from
unmapping before it fails further down. PowerPC should apply the same
prepare_hugepage_range alignment checks as ia64 and all the others do.
Then none of the alignment checks in hugetlbfs_file_mmap are required (nor
is the check for too small a mapping); but even so, move up setting of
VM_HUGETLB and add a comment to warn of what David Gibson discovered - if
hugetlbfs_file_mmap fails before setting it, do_mmap_pgoff's unmap_region
when unwinding from error will go the non-huge way, which may cause bad
behaviour on architectures (powerpc and ia64) which segregate their huge
mappings into a separate region of the address space.

When another interrupt happens in exit_idle the exit idle notifier
could be called an incorrect number of times.
Add a test_and_clear_bit_pda and use it handle the bit
atomically against interrupts to avoid this.
