Those architectures that have a special atomic_set implementation also
need a special atomic_set_release(), because for the very same reason
WRITE_ONCE() is broken for them, smp_store_release() is too.
The vast majority is architectures that have spinlock hash based atomic
implementation except hexagon which seems to have a hardware 'feature'.
The spinlock based atomics should be SC, that is, none of them appear to
place extra barriers in atomic_cmpxchg() or any of the other SC atomic
primitives and therefore seem to rely on their spinlock implementation
being SC (I did not fully validate all that).
Therefore, the normal atomic_set() is SC and can be used at
atomic_set_release().

This fixes another cause of random segfaults and bus errors that may
occur while running perf with the callgraph option.
Critical sections beginning with spin_lock_irqsave() raise the interrupt
level to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14) and intentionally do not block performance
counter interrupts, which arrive at PIL_NMI (15).
But some sections of code are "super critical" with respect to perf
because the perf_callchain_user() path accesses user space and may cause
TLB activity as well as faults as it unwinds the user stack.
One particular critical section occurs in switch_mm:
spin_lock_irqsave(&mm->context.lock, flags);
...
load_secondary_context(mm);
tsb_context_switch(mm);
...
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&mm->context.lock, flags);
If a perf interrupt arrives in between load_secondary_context() and
tsb_context_switch(), then perf_callchain_user() could execute with
the context ID of one process, but with an active TSB for a different
process. When the user stack is accessed, it is very likely to
incur a TLB miss, since the h/w context ID has been changed. The TLB
will then be reloaded with a translation from the TSB for one process,
but using a context ID for another process. This exposes memory from
one process to another, and since it is a mapping for stack memory,
this usually causes the new process to crash quickly.
This super critical section needs more protection than is provided
by spin_lock_irqsave() since perf interrupts must not be allowed in.
Since __tsb_context_switch already goes through the trouble of
disabling interrupts completely, we fix this by moving the secondary
context load down into this better protected region.

A large sun4v SPARC system may have moments of intensive xcall activities,
usually caused by unmapping many pages on many CPUs concurrently. This can
flood receivers with CPU mondo interrupts for an extended period, causing
some unlucky senders to hit send-mondo timeout. This problem gets worse
as cpu count increases because sometimes mappings must be invalidated on
all CPUs, and sometimes all CPUs may gang up on a single CPU.
But a busy system is not a broken system. In the above scenario, as long
as the receiver is making forward progress processing mondo interrupts,
the sender should continue to retry.
This patch implements the receiver's forward progress meter by introducing
a per cpu counter 'cpu_mondo_counter[cpu]' where 'cpu' is in the range
of 0..NR_CPUS. The receiver increments its counter as soon as it receives
a mondo and the sender tracks the receiver's counter. If the receiver has
stopped making forward progress when the retry limit is reached, the sender
declares send-mondo-timeout and panic; otherwise, the receiver is allowed
to keep making forward progress.
In addition, it's been observed that PCIe hotplug events generate Correctable
Errors that are handled by hypervisor and then OS. Hypervisor 'borrows'
a guest cpu strand briefly to provide the service. If the cpu strand is
simultaneously the only cpu targeted by a mondo, it may not be available
for the mondo in 20msec, causing SUN4V mondo timeout. It appears that 1 second
is the agreed wait time between hypervisor and guest OS, this patch makes
the adjustment.

SPARC supports 32 bit and 64 bit xchg right now. Add the support
for 16 bit (2 byte) xchg. This is required to support queued spinlock
feature which uses 2 byte xchg. This is achieved using 4 byte cas
instructions with byte manipulations.
Also re-arranged the code to call __cmpxchg_u32 inside xchg16.

Enable queued rwlocks for SPARC. Here are the discussions on this feature
when this was introduced.
https://lwn.net/Articles/572765/
https://lwn.net/Articles/582200/
Cleaned-up the arch_read_xxx and arch_write_xxx definitions in spinlock_64.h.
These routines are replaced by the functions in include/asm-generic/qrwlock.h

SPARC supports 32 bit and 64 bit cmpxchg right now. Add support
for 8 bit (1 byte) cmpxchg. This is required to support queued
rwlocks feature which uses 1 byte cmpxchg.
The function __cmpxchg_u8 here uses the 4 byte cas instruction with a
byte manipulation to achieve 1 byte cmpxchg.

Saw these compile errors on SPARC when queued rwlock feature is enabled.
CC kernel/locking/qrwlock.o
In file included from ./include/asm-generic/qrwlock_types.h:5,
from ./arch/sparc/include/asm/qrwlock.h:4,
from kernel/locking/qrwlock.c:24:
./arch/sparc/include/asm/spinlock_types.h:5:3: error:
#error "please don't include this file directly"
SPARC has this guard which causes compile error when spinlock_types.h
is included directly.
@ifndef __LINUX_SPINLOCK_TYPES_H
@ error "please don't include this file directly"
@endif
Remove this un-necessary "ifndef __LINUX_SPINLOCK_TYPES_H" stanza from SPARC.
