The current implementation uses a sequence of a cacheflush and a copy.
This is racy in case of a multithreaded debuggee and renders GDB
virtually unusable.
Aside this fixes a performance hog rendering access to /proc/cmdline very
slow and resulting in a enough cache stalls for the 34K AP/SP programming
model to make the bare metal code on the non-Linux VPE miss RT deadlines.
The main part of this patch was originally written by Ralf Baechle;
Atushi Nemoto did the the debugging.

This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
(http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280). It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().
Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
patches for now.
Eric's original description:
There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
because we give it special properties. Most significantly init
must not die. This results in code all over the kernel test
->pid == 1.
Introduce is_init to capture this case.
With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
process that has pid == 1.

c-r4k.c and c-sb1.c use drop_mmu_context() to flush virtually tagged
I-caches, but this does not work for flushing other task's icache. This
is for example triggered by copy_to_user_page() called from ptrace(2).
Use indexed flush for such cases.

With some memory model other than FLATMEM, the single node can
contains some holes so there might be many invalid pages. For
example, with two 256M memory and one 256M hole, some variables
(num_physpage, totalpages, nr_kernel_pages, nr_all_pages, etc.) will
indicate that there are 768MB on this system. This is not desired
because, for example, alloc_large_system_hash() allocates too many
entries.
Use free_area_init_node() with counted zholes_size[] instead of
free_area_init().
For num_physpages, use number of ram pages instead of max_low_pfn.

Move memory_present() in arch/mips/kernel/setup.c. When using sparsemem
extreme, this function does an allocate for bootmem. This would always
fail since init_bootmem hasn't been called yet.
Move memory_present after free_bootmem. This only marks actual memory
ranges as present instead of the entire address space.

A proper fix would involve introducing the notion of shared caches but
at this stage of 2.6.17 that's going to be too intrusive and not needed
for current hardware; aside I think some discussion will be needed.
So for now on the affected SMP configurations which happen to suffer from
cache aliases we make use of the fact that a single cache will be shared
by all processors. This solves the deadlock issue and will improve
performance by getting rid of the smp_call_function overhead.

Just about every architecture defines some macros to do operations on pfns.
They're all virtually identical. This patch consolidates all of them.
One minor glitch is that at least i386 uses them in a very skeletal header
file. To keep away from #include dependency hell, I stuck the new
definitions in a new, isolated header.
Of all of the implementations, sh64 is the only one that varied by a bit.
It used some masks to ensure that any sign-extension got ripped away before
the arithmetic is done. This has been posted to that sh64 maintainers and
the development list.
Compiles on x86, x86_64, ia64 and ppc64.

set_page_count usage outside mm/ is limited to setting the refcount to 1.
Remove set_page_count from outside mm/, and replace those users with

This allows more debug checking, and tighter control on how code is allowed
