Impact: fix powernow-k8 when acpi=off (or other error).
There was a spurious change introduced into powernow-k8 in this patch:
so that we try to "restore" the cpus_allowed we never saved. We revert
that file.
See lkml "[PATCH] x86/powernow: fix cpus_allowed brokage when
acpi=off" from Yinghai for the bug report.

The constraint used for retrieving and restoring the parent function
pointer is incorrect. The parent variable is a pointer, and the
address of the pointer is modified by the asm statement and not
the pointer itself. It is incorrect to pass it in as an output
constraint since the asm will never update the pointer.

Impact: fix to prevent a kernel crash on fault
If for some reason the pointer to the parent function on the
stack takes a fault, the fix up code will not return back to
the original faulting code. This can lead to unpredictable
results and perhaps even a kernel panic.
A fault should not happen, but if it does, we should simply
disable the tracer, warn, and continue running the kernel.
It should not lead to a kernel crash.

do_device_not_available() is the handler for #NM and it declares that
it takes a unsigned long and calls math_emu(), which takes a long
argument and surprisingly expects the stack frame starting at the zero
argument would match struct math_emu_info, which isn't true regardless
of configuration in the current code.
This patch makes do_device_not_available() take struct pt_regs like
other exception handlers and initialize struct math_emu_info with
pointer to it and pass pointer to the math_emu_info to math_emulate()
like normal C functions do. This way, unless gcc makes a copy of
struct pt_regs in do_device_not_available(), the register frame is
correctly accessed regardless of kernel configuration or compiler
used.
This doesn't fix all math_emu problems but it at least gets it
somewhat working.

[CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: Get transition latency from ACPI _PSS table
[CPUFREQ] Make ignore_nice_load setting of ondemand work as expected.
Commit 6194ba6ff6 ("x86: don't special-case
pmd allocations as much") made changes to the way we handle pmd allocations,
and while doing that it dropped a call to paravirt_release_pd on the
pgd page from the pgd_dtor code path.
As a result of this missing release, the hypervisor is now unaware of the
pgd page being freed, and as a result it ends up tracking this page as a
page table page.
After this the guest may start using the same page for other purposes, and
depending on what use the page is put to, it may result in various performance
and/or functional issues ( hangs, reboots).
Since this release is only required for VMI, I now release the pgd page from
the (vmi)_pgd_free hook.

At this time, the PowerNow! driver for K8 uses an experimentally

provides is orders of magnitude too large on modern systems.
This patch replaces the formula with ACPI _PSS latency values
for more accuracy and better performance.

There's a small problem with hpet_rtc_reinit function - it checks
for the:
hpet_readl(HPET_COUNTER) - hpet_t1_cmp > 0
to continue increasing both the HPET_T1_CMP (register) and the
hpet_t1_cmp (variable).
But since the HPET_COUNTER is always 32-bit, if the hpet_t1_cmp
is 64-bit this condition will always be FALSE once the latter hits
the 32-bit boundary, and we can have a situation, when we don't
increase the HPET_T1_CMP register high enough.
The result - timer stops ticking, since HPET_T1_CMP becomes less,
than the COUNTER and never increased again.
The solution is (based on Linus's suggestion) to not compare 64-bits
(on 64-bit x86), but to do the comparison on 32-bit signed
integers.

As far as I am capable of discerning from the documentation,
MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE should be available for all family 0xf CPUs, as
well as family 6 for model >= 0xd (newer Pentium M).
The documentation on this isn't ideal, so we need to be on the lookout
for errors, still.

This reverts commit 4217458daf.
Justin Madru bisected this commit, it was causing weird Firefox

The reason is that GCC mis-optimizes (re-uses) the on-stack parameters of
the calling frame, which corrupts the syscall return pt_regs state and
thus corrupts user-space register state.
So we go back to the slightly less clean but more optimization-safe
method of getting to pt_regs. Also add a comment to explain this.
