This is based upon a report from Chris Torek and his initial patch.
From Chris's report:
--------------------
This came up in testing kgdb, using the built-in tests -- turn
on CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS, then
echo V1 > /sys/module/kgdbts/parameters/kgdbts
-- but it would affect using kgdb if you were debugging and looking
at bad pointers.
--------------------
When we get a copy_{from,to}_user() request and the %asi is set to
something other than ASI_AIUS (which is userspace) then we branch off
to a routine called memcpy_user_stub(). It just does a straight
memcpy since we are copying from kernel to kernel in this case.
The logic was that since source and destination are both kernel
pointers we don't need to have exception checks.
But for what probe_kernel_{read,write}() is trying to do, we have to
have the checks, otherwise things like kgdb bad kernel pointer
accesses don't do the right thing.

This is an implementation of a suggestion made by Chris Torek:
--------------------
Something else I noticed in passing: the EX and EX_LD/EX_ST macros
scattered throughout the various .S files make a fair bit of .fixup
code, all of which does the same thing. At the cost of one symbol
in copy_in_user.S, you could just have one common two-instruction
retl-and-mov-1 fixup that they all share.

This builds upon eeabac7386
("sparc64: Validate kernel generated fault addresses on sparc64.")
Upon further consideration, we actually should never see any
fault addresses for 32-bit tasks with the upper 32-bits set.
If it does every happen, by definition it's a bug. Whatever
context created that fault would only have that fault satisfied
if we used the full 64-bit address. If we truncate it, we'll
always fault the wrong address and we'll always loop faulting
forever.
So catch such conditions and mark them as errors always. Log
the error and fail the fault.

In order to handle all of the cases of address calculation overflow
properly, we run sparc 32-bit processes in "address masking" mode
when running on a 64-bit kernel.
Address masking mode zeros out the top 32-bits of the address
calculated for every load and store instruction.
However, when we're in privileged mode we have to run with that
address masking mode disabled even when accessing userspace from
the kernel.
To "simulate" the address masking mode we clear the top-bits by
hand for 32-bit processes in the fault handler.
It is the responsibility of code in the compat layer to properly
zero extend addresses used to access userspace. If this isn't
followed properly we can get into a fault loop.
Say that the user address is 0xf0000000 but for whatever reason
the kernel code sign extends this to 64-bit, and then the kernel
tries to access the result.
In such a case we'll fault on address 0xfffffffff0000000 but the fault
handler will process that fault as if it were to address 0xf0000000.
We'll loop faulting forever because the fault never gets satisfied.
So add a check specifically for this case, when the kernel is faulting
on a user address access and the addresses don't match up.
This code path is sufficiently slow path, and this bug is sufficiently
painful to diagnose, that this kind of bug check is warranted.

When we're idling in NOHZ mode, timer interrupts are not running.
Evidence of processing timer interrupts is what the NMI watchdog
uses to determine if the CPU is stuck.
On Niagara, we'll yield the cpu. This will make the cpu, at
worst, hang out in the hypervisor until an interrupt arrives.
This will prevent the NMI watchdog timer from firing.
However on non-Niagara we just loop executing instructions
which will cause the NMI watchdog to keep firing. It won't
see timer interrupts happening so it will think the cpu is
stuck.
Fix this by touching the NMI watchdog in the cpu idle loop
on non-Niagara machines.

Previously PeeCeeI.o was a library but it
was always pulled in due to insw and friends being exported
(at least for a modular kernel).
But this resulted in modpost failures if there where no in-kernel
users because then insw & friends were not linked in.
Fix this by including PeeCeeI.o in the kernel unconditionally.
The only drawback for this solution is that a nonmodular kernel
will always include insw & friends no matter if they are in use or not.

This is due to different integer promotion in my 32 bit hosted gcc.
The fix is to force a few constants to ULL.
The following stands out from the rest:
+#define PSYCHO_IOMMU_TAG_VPAGE 0x7ffffULL
+#define PSYCHO_IOMMU_DATA_PPAGE 0xfffffffULL
They were needed otherwise the expression:
(data_val & PSYCHO_IOMMU_DATA_PPAGE) << IOMMU_PAGE_SHIFT)
were promoted to a unsigned long and not a unsigned long long as expected.
I tried the alternative solution and made IOMMU_PAGE_SHIFT an ULL but that did not help.
The only way gcc would make this expression an unsigned long long was to
define PSYCHO_IOMMU_DATA_PPAGE as ULL. The alternative to add a cast was
not considered a valid solution.
We had this issue in two places and this were the only places the above
two constants are used.
A small coding style diff sneaked in too.
