Hopefully this will make it more maintainable and less error prone.
Code makes use of search_exception_tables(). Since it calls this
function before the kernel exeception table is sorted, there is an
early call to sort_main_extable().
This way it's easy to use the already present infrastructure of fixup
sections. Also this would allows to easily convert the rest of
head[31|64].S into C code.

This patch adds support for clock synchronization to an external time
reference (ETR). The external time reference sends an oscillator
signal and a synchronization signal every 2^20 microseconds to keep
the TOD clocks of all connected servers in sync. For availability
two ETR units can be connected to a machine. If the clock deviates
for more than the sync-check tolerance all cpus get a machine check
that indicates that the clock is out of sync. For the lovely details
how to get the clock back in sync see the code below.

This provides a noexec protection on s390 hardware. Our hardware does
not have any bits left in the pte for a hw noexec bit, so this is a
different approach using shadow page tables and a special addressing
mode that allows separate address spaces for code and data.
As a special feature of our "secondary-space" addressing mode, separate
page tables can be specified for the translation of data addresses
(storage operands) and instruction addresses. The shadow page table is
used for the instruction addresses and the standard page table for the
data addresses.
The shadow page table is linked to the standard page table by a pointer
in page->lru.next of the struct page corresponding to the page that
contains the standard page table (since page->private is not really
private with the pte_lock and the page table pages are not in the LRU
list).
Depending on the software bits of a pte, it is either inserted into
both page tables or just into the standard (data) page table. Pages of
a vma that does not have the VM_EXEC bit set get mapped only in the
data address space. Any try to execute code on such a page will cause a
page translation exception. The standard reaction to this is a SIGSEGV
with two exceptions: the two system call opcodes 0x0a77 (sys_sigreturn)
and 0x0aad (sys_rt_sigreturn) are allowed. They are stored by the
kernel to the signal stack frame. Unfortunately, the signal return
mechanism cannot be modified to use an SA_RESTORER because the
exception unwinding code depends on the system call opcode stored
behind the signal stack frame.
This feature requires that user space is executed in secondary-space
mode and the kernel in home-space mode, which means that the addressing
modes need to be switched and that the noexec protection only works
for user space.
After switching the addressing modes, we cannot use the mvcp/mvcs
instructions anymore to copy between kernel and user space. A new
mvcos instruction has been added to the z9 EC/BC hardware which allows
to copy between arbitrary address spaces, but on older hardware the
page tables need to be walked manually.

The initialization of the dasd_eer code is one of the last steps of the
dasd driver initialization. When initialization fails in one of the
earlier steps, the dasd_exit function is called to clean up what has been

dasd_eer_init function wasn't called before and dasd_eer_exit tries to
unregister a misc device that wasn't registered, which results in a BUG.
Make sure that dasd_eer_exit can be called without initialization. Use a
dynamically allocated struct miscdevice instead of a static one, so we
only try to unregister the device if it exists and was actually registered.

There was a redundant check for response==NULL. response < 2GB contains

This patch fixes up ia64 kexec support for HP rx2620 hardware. It does
this by skipping migration of already disabled irqs. This is most likely a
problem on other ia64 platforms as well, but I've only been able to
reproduce it on one machine so far.
The full story is that handle_bad_irq() gets invoked before starting the
new kernel without this patch. This seems to happen when fixup_irqs()
calls generic_handle_irq() on already migrated (and disabled) irqs. So by
avoiding migration of disabled irqs we stay away of handle_bad_irq().
The code has been tested on three different ia64 machines, all with good
results. It is possible to trigger the same bug by offlining a processor
using echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online.

flush_workqueue() is not allowed to be called in the softirq context.
However, aio_complete() called from I/O interrupt can potentially call
put_ioctx with last ref count on ioctx and triggers bug. It is simply
incorrect to perform ioctx freeing from aio_complete.
The bug is trigger-able from a race between io_destroy() and aio_complete().
A possible scenario:
cpu0 cpu1
io_destroy aio_complete
wait_for_all_aios { __aio_put_req
... ctx->reqs_active--;
if (!ctx->reqs_active)
return;
}
...
put_ioctx(ioctx)
put_ioctx(ctx);
__put_ioctx
bam! Bug trigger!
The real problem is that the condition check of ctx->reqs_active in
wait_for_all_aios() is incorrect that access to reqs_active is not
being properly protected by spin lock.
This patch adds that protective spin lock, and at the same time removes
all duplicate ref counting for each kiocb as reqs_active is already used
as a ref count for each active ioctx. This also ensures that buggy call
to flush_workqueue() in softirq context is eliminated.
