On PPC, CR2-CR4 are nonvolatile, thus have to be saved across function calls.
We didn't respect that for any architecture until Paul spotted it in his
patch for Book3S-HV. This patch saves/restores CR for all KVM capable PPC hosts.

The ABI specifies that CR fields CR2--CR4 are nonvolatile across function
calls. Currently __kvmppc_vcore_entry doesn't save and restore the CR,
leading to CR2--CR4 getting corrupted with guest values, possibly leading
to incorrect behaviour in its caller. This adds instructions to save
and restore CR at the points where we save and restore the nonvolatile
GPRs.

In kvm_alloc_linear we were using and deferencing ri after the
list_for_each_entry had come to the end of the list. In that
situation, ri is not really defined and probably points to the
list head. This will happen every time if the free_linears list
is empty, for instance. This led to a NULL pointer dereference
crash in memset on POWER7 while trying to allocate an HPT in the
case where no HPTs were preallocated.
This fixes it by using a separate variable for the return value
from the loop iterator.

We were failing to compile on book3s_32 with the following errors:
arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_pr.c:883:45: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast]
arch/powerpc/kvm/book3s_pr.c:898:79: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast]
Fix this by explicity casting the u64 to long before we use it as a pointer.
Also, on PPC32 we can not use get_user/put_user for 64bit wide variables,
as there is no single instruction that could load or store variables that big.
So instead, we have to use copy_from/to_user which works everywhere.

Steven reported his P4 not booting properly, the missing format
attributes cause a NULL ptr deref. Cure this by adding the
missing format specification.
I took the format description out of the comment near
p4_config_pack*() and hope that comment is still relatively
accurate.

When comparing two pages read from different legs of a mirror, only
compare the bytes that were read, not the whole page.
In most cases we read a whole page, but in some cases with
bad blocks or odd sizes devices we might read fewer than that.
This bug has been present "forever" but at worst it might cause
a report of two many mismatches and generate a little bit
extra resync IO, so there is no need to back-port to -stable
kernels.

When create a raid5 using assume-clean and echo check or repair to
sync_action.Then component disks did not operated IO but the raid
check/resync faster than normal.
Because the judgement in function analyse_stripe():
if (do_recovery ||
sh->sector >= conf->mddev->recovery_cp)
s->syncing = 1;
else
s->replacing = 1;
When check or repair,the recovery_cp == MaxSectore,so syncing equal zero
not one.
This bug was introduced by commit 9a3e1101b827
md/raid5: detect and handle replacements during recovery.
so this patch is suitable for 3.3-stable.

1/ We can only treat a known-bad-block like a read-error if we
have the data that belongs in that block. So fix that test.
2/ If we cannot recovery a stripe due to insufficient data,
don't tell "md_done_sync" that the sync failed unless we really
did fail something. If we successfully record bad blocks,
that is success.

"FB: sa1100: remove global sa1100fb_.*_power function pointers"
got rid of all instances but one in locomolcd.c -- which was
conditional on CONFIG_SA1100_COLLIE. The associated .power
field which replaces the global is populated in mach-sa1100/collie.c
so move the assignment there, but make it conditional on the
locomolcd support, so use CONFIG_BACKLIGHT_LOCOMO in that file.

I found the Xorg server on my ARM device stuck in the 'msleep()' loop
in apm_ioctl.
I suspect it had attempted suspend immediately after resuming and lost
a race.
During that msleep(10);, a new suspend cycle must have started and
changed ->suspend_state to SUSPEND_PENDING, so it was never seen to
be SUSPEND_DONE and the loop could never exited. It would have moved on
to SUSPEND_ACKTO but never been able to reach SUSPEND_DONE.
So change the loop to only run while SUSPEND_ACKED rather than until
SUSPEND_DONE. This is much safer.

We have driver support under development for i915, nouveau, udl on x86

The return path as we reload registers and core state requires that r30
hold a boolean indicating whether we are returning from an NMI, but in a
couple of cases we weren't setting this properly, with the result that we
could accidentally unmask the NMI interrupt(s), which could cause confusion.
Now we set r30 in every place where we jump into the interrupt return path.

This allows the later-panicking tiles to wait in a lower power state
until they get interrupted with an smp_send_stop().

This avoids the hardware istream prefetcher doing unnecessary work.

This is more standard and avoids having to remember what units
the options actually take.

We should be holding the init_mm.page_table_lock in shatter_huge_page()
since we are modifying the kernel page tables. Then, only if we are
walking the other root page tables to update them, do we want to take
the pgd_lock.
Add a comment about taking the pgd_lock that we always do it with
interrupts disabled and therefore are not at risk from the tlbflush
IPI deadlock as is seen on x86.

We were failing to track the memory when we allocated it.

We were carefully computing a value to use for the number of loops
to spin for, and then ignoring it.

Previously we only handled kernels up to a single huge page in size.
Now we create additional PTEs appropriately.
