02b3083922 [ARM] Fix some corner cases in new mm initialisation
Document that the VMALLOC_END address must be aligned to 2MB since
it must align with a PGD boundary.

Allocate the vectors page early so that the flush_cache_all() later
will cause any dirty cache lines in the direct mapping will be safely
written back.

Move the flush_cache_all() to the second local_flush_cache_tlb() and
remove the now redundant first local_flush_cache_tlb().

a39cf72ceb [PARISC] Make superio.c initialize before any driver needs it
Convert superio_init to use PCI_FIXUP_FINAL as ohci_pci being called
before superio_probe really makes a mess. superio_init will then fail
to register irq 20 (the "SuperIO" irq) and BUG() because ohci_pci has
stolen it before superio_fixup_irq can be moved USB to irq 1.

a137ce8536 [PARISC] Define port->timeout to fix a long msleep in mux.c
This commit is in response to a bug reported by Vesa on the irc channel
a couple of weeks ago.

The bug was that the console would apparently hang (not return) while
using the mux console.

The root cause of this bug is that bash (with readline support) makes a
call to the tcsetattr() glibc function with the argument TCSADRAIN.  This
causes the serial core in the kernel use the uart_wait_until_sent() to be
called. This function verifies the mux transmit queue is empty or calls the
msleep_interruptable() with a calculated timeout value that is dependant
upon the port->timeout variable.

The real problem here is that the port->timeout was not defined so it
was defaulted to 0 and the timeout calculation performs the following
calculation:

char_time = (port->timeout - HZ/50) / port->fifosize;

where char_time is an unsigned long. Since the serial Mux does not use
interrupts, the msleep_interruptable() function waits until the timeout
has been reached ... and when the port->timeout < HZ/50 this timeout will
be a long time. (I have validated that the console will eventually
return ... but it takes quite a while for this to happen).

This patch simply sets the port->timeout on the Mux to HZ/50 to avoid
this long timeout period.

08dc2ca61e [PARISC] Fix our spinlock implementation
We actually have two separate bad bugs

1. The read_lock implementation spins with disabled interrupts.  This is
completely wrong
2. Our spin_lock_irqsave should check to see if interrupts were enabled
before the call and re-enable interrupts around the inner spin loop.

The problem is that if we spin with interrupts off, we can't receive
IPIs. This has resulted in a bug where SMP machines suddenly spit
smp_call_function timeout messages and hang.

The scenario I've caught is

CPU0 does a flush_tlb_all holding the vmlist_lock for write.
CPU1 tries a cat of /proc/meminfo which tries to acquire vmlist_lock for
     read
CPU1 is now spinning with interrupts disabled
CPU0 tries to execute a smp_call_function to flush the local tlb caches

This is now a deadlock because CPU1 is spinning with interrupts disabled
and can never receive the IPI

3f902886a8 [PARISC] Disable nesting of interrupts
Disable nesting of interrupts - still has holes

The offending sequence starts out like this:
1) take external interrupt
2) set_eiem() to only allow TIMER_IRQ; local interrupts still disabled
3) read the EIRR to get a "list" of pending interrupts
4) clear EIRR of pending interrupts we intend to handle
5) call __do_IRQ() to handle IRQ.
6) handle_IRQ_event() enables local interrupts (I-Bit)
7) take a timer interrupt
8) read EIRR to get a new list of pending interrupts
9) clear EIRR of pending interrupts we just read
10) handle pending interrupts found in (8)
11) set_eiem(cpu_eiem) and return
        [ TROUBLE! all enabled CPU IRQs are unmasked. }
12) handle remaining interrupts pending from (3)
        e.g. call __do_IRQ() -> handle_IRQ_event()..etc
        [ TROUBLE! call to handle_IRQ_event() can now enable *any* IRQ. }
13) set_eiem(cpu_eiem) and return

The problem is we now get into ugly race conditions with Timer and IPI
interrupts at this point.  I'm not exactly sure what happens when
things go wrong (perhaps nest calls to IPI or timer interrupt?).
But I'm certain it's not good.

This sequence will break sooner if (10) would accidentally leave
interrupts enabled.

I'm pretty sure the right answer is now to make cpu_eiem
a per CPU variable since all external interrupts on parisc
are per CPU. This means we will NOT need to send an IPI to
every CPU in the system when enabling or disabling an IRQ
since only one CPU needs to change it's EIEM.

Thanks to James Bottomley for (once again) pointing out the problem.

9a8b458406 [PARISC] Make sure timer and IPI execute with interrupts disabled
Fix a longstanding smp bug

The problem is that both the timer and ipi interrupts are being called
with interrupts enabled, which isn't what anyone is expecting.

The IPI issue has just started to show up by causing a BUG_ON in the
slab debugging code.  The timer issue never shows up because there's an
eiem work around in our irq.c

The fix is to label both these as SA_INTERRUPT which causes the generic
irq code not to enable interrupts.

I also suspect the smp_call_function timeouts we're seeing might be
connected with the fact that we disable IPIs when handling any other
type of interrupt.  I've put a WARN_ON in the code for executing
smp_call_function() with IPIs disabled.

pgd, pud, pmd, and pte instead of referring as L1, L2, L3 etc.
Along the line, remove some magic number in the comments like:
"PTA + (((IFA(61,63) << 7) | IFA(33,39))*8)".  No code change at
all, pure comment update.  Feel free to shoot anything you have,
darts or tomahawk cruise missile.  I will duck behind a bunker ;-)

fedb25fae7 [IA64] 4 level page table bug fix in vhpt_miss
From source code inspection, I think there is a bug with 4 level
page table with vhpt_miss handler.  In the code path of rechecking
page table entry against previously read value after tlb insertion,
*pte value in register r18 was overwritten with value newly read
from pud pointer, render the check of new *pte against previous
*pte completely wrong.  Though the bug is none fatal and the penalty
is to purge the entry and retry.  For functional correctness, it
should be fixed.  The fix is to use a different register so new
*pud don't trash *pte.  (btw, the comments in the cmp statement is
wrong as well, which I will address in the next patch).
