1961d276c8 KVM: Add guest mode signal mask
Allow a special signal mask to be used while executing in guest mode.  This
allows signals to be used to interrupt a vcpu without requiring signal
delivery to a userspace handler, which is quite expensive.  Userspace still
receives -EINTR and can get the signal via sigwait().

1b19f3e61d KVM: Add a special exit reason when exiting due to an interrupt
This is redundant, as we also return -EINTR from the ioctl, but it
allows us to examine the exit_reason field on resume without seeing
old data.

8eb7d334bd KVM: Fold kvm_run::exit_type into kvm_run::exit_reason
Currently, userspace is told about the nature of the last exit from the
guest using two fields, exit_type and exit_reason, where exit_type has
just two enumerations (and no need for more).  So fold exit_type into
exit_reason, reducing the complexity of determining what really happened.

06465c5a3a KVM: Handle cpuid in the kernel instead of punting to userspace
KVM used to handle cpuid by letting userspace decide what values to
return to the guest.  We now handle cpuid completely in the kernel.  We
still let userspace decide which values the guest will see by having
userspace set up the value table beforehand (this is necessary to allow
management software to set the cpu features to the least common denominator,
so that live migration can work).

The motivation for the change is that kvm kernel code can be impacted by
cpuid features, for example the x86 emulator.

46fc147788 KVM: Do not communicate to userspace through cpu registers during PIO
Currently when passing the a PIO emulation request to userspace, we
rely on userspace updating %rax (on 'in' instructions) and %rsi/%rdi/%rcx
(on string instructions).  This (a) requires two extra ioctls for getting
and setting the registers and (b) is unfriendly to non-x86 archs, when
they get kvm ports.

So fix by doing the register fixups in the kernel and passing to userspace
only an abstract description of the PIO to be done.

9a2bb7f486 KVM: Use a shared page for kernel/user communication when runing a vcpu
Instead of passing a 'struct kvm_run' back and forth between the kernel and
userspace, allocate a page and allow the user to mmap() it.  This reduces
needless copying and makes the interface expandable by providing lots of
free space.

dc87c3985e libata: honour host controllers that want just one host
The Marvell IDE interface on my machine would hit a BUG_ON() in
lib/iomem.c because it was calling ata_pci_init_one() specifying just a
single port on the host, but that would actually end up trying to
initialize two ports, the second one with bogus information.

This fixes "ata_pci_init_one()" so that it actually passes down the
n_ports variable that it got from the low-level driver to the host
allocation routine ("ata_host_alloc_pinfo()"), which results in the ATA
layer actually having the correct port number information.

And in order to make it all work, I also needed to fix a few places that
had incorrectly hard-coded the fact that a host always had exactly two
ports (both ata_pci_init_bmdma() and ata_request_legacy_irqs() would
just always iterate over both ports).

e8c9c50269 power management: implement pm_ops.valid for everybody
Almost all users of pm_ops only support mem sleep, don't check in .valid and
don't reject any others in .prepare so users can be confused if they check
/sys/power/state, especially when new states are added (these would then
result in s-t-r although they're supposed to be something different).

This patch implements a generic pm_valid_only_mem function that is then
exported for users and puts it to use in almost all existing pm_ops.

5972511b77 [BLOCK] Don't pin lots of memory in mempools
Currently we scale the mempool sizes depending on memory installed
in the machine, except for the bio pool itself which sits at a fixed
256 entry pre-allocation.

There's really no point in "optimizing" this OOM path, we just need
enough preallocated to make progress. A single unit is enough, lets
scale it down to 2 just to be on the safe side.

This patch saves ~150kb of pinned kernel memory on a 32-bit box.

Adjust white space and line wraps.  Remove unnecessary parentheses and
braces, unused macros, and some of the more redundant comments.

09d7a96f5a ieee1394: eth1394: Move common recv_init code to helper function
There is some common code between ether1394_open and ether1394_add_host
which can be moved to a separate helper function for a slightly smaller
eth1394 driver (-160 bytes on i386.)

70093cfde8 ieee1394: eth1394: don't autoload by hotplug when ohci1394 starts
Until now, ieee1394 put an IP-over-1394 capability entry into each new
host's config ROM.  As soon as the controller was initialized --- i.e.
right after modprobe ohci1394 --- this entry triggered a hotplug event
which typically caused auto-loading of eth1394.

This irritated or annoyed many users and distributors.  Of course they
could blacklist eth1394, but then ieee1394 wrongly advertized IP-over-
1394 capability to the FireWire bus.

Therefore
  - remove the offending kernel config option
    IEEE1394_CONFIG_ROM_IP1394,
  - let eth1394 add the ROM entry by itself, i.e. only after eth1394 was
    loaded.

This fixes http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7793 .

To emulate the behaviour of older kernels, simply add the following to
to /etc/modprobe.conf:

install ohci1394 /sbin/modprobe eth1394; \
                 /sbin/modprobe --ignore-install ohci1394

Note, autoloading of eth1394 when an _external_ IP-over-1394 capable
device is discovered is _not_ affected by this patch.
