From the result of a function test of mmap, mmap write to shared pages
turned out to be broken for hole blocks. It doesn't write out filled
blocks and the data will be lost after umount. This is due to a bug
that the target file is not queued for log writer when filling hole
blocks.
Also, nilfs_page_mkwrite function exits normal code path even after
successfully filled hole blocks due to a change of block_page_mkwrite
function; just after nilfs was merged into the mainline,
block_page_mkwrite() started to return VM_FAULT_LOCKED instead of zero
by the patch "mm: close page_mkwrite races" (commit:
b827e496c8). The current nilfs_page_mkwrite() is not handling
this value properly.
This corrects nilfs_page_mkwrite() and will resolve the data loss
problem in mmap write.
[This should be applied to every kernel since 2.6.30 but a fix is
needed for 2.6.37 and prior kernels]

commit cf9efce0ce (powerpc: Account time using timebase rather
than PURR) used in_irq() to detect if the time was spent in
interrupt processing. This only catches hardirq context so if we
are in softirq context and in the idle loop we end up accounting it
as idle time. If we instead use in_interrupt() we catch both softirq
and hardirq time.
The issue was found when running a network intensive workload. top
showed the following:
0.0%us, 1.1%sy, 0.0%ni, 85.7%id, 0.0%wa, 9.9%hi, 3.3%si, 0.0%st
85.7% idle. But this was wildly different to the perf events data.
To confirm the suspicion I ran something to keep the core busy:
# yes > /dev/null &
8.2%us, 0.0%sy, 0.0%ni, 0.0%id, 0.0%wa, 10.3%hi, 81.4%si, 0.0%st
We only got 8.2% of the CPU for the userspace task and softirq has
shot up to 81.4%.
With the patch below top shows the correct stats:
0.0%us, 0.0%sy, 0.0%ni, 5.3%id, 0.0%wa, 13.3%hi, 81.3%si, 0.0%st

commit 79f26c268e (powerpc:
platforms/pseries irq_data conversion) pushed irq_desc down into many
functions, dererencing the descriptor irq field as late as possible.
But it incorrectly passed a linix virtural irq number to RTAS,
resulting in the interrupt not being disabled and possibly
other bad things, such as another interrupt being disabled and/or
a checkstop.
In addition this missed the point of xics_mask_unknown_vec and
the seperation of xics_mask_real_irq from xics_mask_irq. When
xics_mask_unknown_vec is called it's because the hardware delivered an
irq source for which we have no linux irq allocated, and thefore we can
not have an irq_desc allocated.
Revert xics_mask_real_irq to its prior version, naming the argument
hwirq to highlight the difference.

Uwe Kleine-König reported:
while working on an defconfig (arm/mx27) I noticed that just updating
it[1] results in removing CONFIG_EEPROM_AT24=y. The reason is that
since commit
v2.6.36-5965-g5f2365d (misc devices: do not enable by default)
MISC_DEVICES isn't enabled anymore by default. So all defconfigs that
have CONFIG_SOME_SYMBOL=y (or =m) (with SOME_SYMBOL depending on
MISC_DEVICES) but not CONFIG_MISC_DEVICES=y suffer from the same
problem.
This restores those misc devices to the powerpc defconfigs.

On laptops with core i5/i7, there were reports that after resume
graphics workloads were performing poorly on a specific AP, while
the other cpu's were ok. This was observed on a 32bit kernel
specifically.
Debug showed that the PAT init was not happening on that AP
during resume and hence it contributing to the poor workload
performance on that cpu.
On this system, resume flow looked like this:
1. BP starts the resume sequence and we reinit BP's MTRR's/PAT
early on using mtrr_bp_restore()
2. Resume sequence brings all AP's online
3. Resume sequence now kicks off the MTRR reinit on all the AP's.
4. For some reason, between point 2 and 3, we moved from BP
to one of the AP's. My guess is that printk() during resume
sequence is contributing to this. We don't see similar
behavior with the 64bit kernel but there is no guarantee that
at this point the remaining resume sequence (after AP's bringup)
has to happen on BP.
5. set_mtrr() was assuming that we are still on BP and skipped the
MTRR/PAT init on that cpu (because of 1 above)
6. But we were on an AP and this led to not reprogramming PAT
on this cpu leading to bad performance.
Fix this by doing unconditional mtrr_if->set_all() in set_mtrr()
during MTRR/PAT init. This might be unnecessary if we are still
running on BP. But it is of no harm and will guarantee that after
resume, all the cpu's will be in sync with respect to the
MTRR/PAT registers.

If symbol_conf.priv_size is not a multiple of "sizeof(u64)" we'll bus
error on sparc64 in symbol__new because the "struct symbol *" pointer
is computed by adding symbol_conf.priv_size to the memory allocated.
We cannot isolate the fix to symbol__new and symbol__delete since the
private area is computed by subtracting the priv_size value from a
"struct symbol" pointer, so then the private area can still be
potentially unaligned.
So, simply align the symbol_conf.priv_size value in symbol__init()
