This brings Alpha AGP platforms in sync with the change to struct
agp_memory (unsigned long *memory => struct page **pages).
Only compile tested (I don't have titan/marvel hardware), but this change
looks pretty straightforward, so hopefully it's ok.

It's unused.
It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl

In order to direct the SIGIO signal to a particular thread of a
multi-threaded application we cannot, like suggested by the manpage, put a
TID into the regular fcntl(F_SETOWN) call. It will still be send to the
whole process of which that thread is part.
Since people do want to properly direct SIGIO we introduce F_SETOWN_EX.
The need to direct SIGIO comes from self-monitoring profiling such as with
perf-counters. Perf-counters uses SIGIO to notify that new sample data is
available. If the signal is delivered to the same task that generated the
new sample it can augment that data by inspecting the task's user-space
state right after it returns from the kernel. This is esp. convenient
for interpreted or virtual machine driven environments.
Both F_SETOWN_EX and F_GETOWN_EX take a pointer to a struct f_owner_ex
as argument:
struct f_owner_ex {
int type;
pid_t pid;
};
Where type is one of F_OWNER_TID, F_OWNER_PID or F_OWNER_GID.

arch/x86/include/asm/topology.h declares inline fns cpu_to_node and
cpumask_of_node for !NUMA, even though they are then declared as
macros by asm-generic/topology.h, which is #included just below.
The macros (which are the same) end up being used; these functions
are just confusing.

On modern systems, the kernel prints the message
x86 PAT enabled: cpu 0, old 0x7040600070406, new 0x7010600070106
once for every CPU.
This gets kind of ridiculous on huge systems; for example, on a
64-thread system I was lucky enough to get:
dmesg| grep 'PAT enabled' | wc
64 704 5174
There is already a BUG() if non-boot CPUs have PAT capabilities
that don't match the boot CPU, so just print the message on the
boot CPU. (I kept the print after the wrmsrl() that enables PAT,
so that the log output continues to mean that the system survived
enabling PAT on the boot CPU)

Instead of remembering to specify DTB= on the make commandline, this commit
allows the much friendlier make simpleImage.<dts>
where <dts>.dts is expected to be found in arch/microblaze/boot/dts/
The resulting vmlinux, with the compiled DTS linked in, will be copied to
boot/simpleImage.<dts>
This mirrors the same functionality as on PowerPC,
albeit achieving it in a slightly different way.
+ strip simpleImage file
The size of output file is very similar to linux.bin.

After upgrading to the latest kernel on my mpc875 userspace started
running incredibly slow (hours to get to a shell, even!).
I tracked it down to commit 8d30c14cab30d405a05f2aaceda1e9ad57800f36,

back makes my problem go away.

The xmon code relies on MSR_RI being non-zero to indicate that an exception
is recoverable. If it is not, it prints a warning message. However, the
PowerPC 4xx cores do not have an MSR_RI bit and this warning is produced for
every xmon event.
This introduces an unrecoverable_excp function to determine if an exception
is recoverable or not. This gets rid of the erroneous warnings on 4xx.

The test to check whether we have _PAGE_SPECIAL defined is broken,
since we always define it, just not always to a meaninful value :-)
That broke 8xx and 40x under some circumstances.
This fixes it by adding _PAGE_SPECIAL for both of these since they
had a free PTE bit, and removing the condition around advertising
it.

On machines without the ibm,client-architecture-support call we were missing a
newline. We may as well print the full name in all its glory too - its
ibm,client-architecture-support, not ibm,client-architecture as I mistakenly
wrote (a name only an IBM architect could love).
For my penance I will write out ibm,client-architecture-support 100 times.

Some System p configurations can already have more than 16 nodes so we
need to increase NODES_SHIFT. I chose 256 to give us some room to grow in the
future, although we can look at something smaller if the memory bloat is
considered too much.
Unless we clamp MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS we end up with 300kB of extra bloat in
early_node_map in mm/page_alloc.c:
< 6144 early_node_map
> 307200 early_node_map
due to:
#if MAX_NUMNODES >= 32
/* If there can be many nodes, allow up to 50 holes per node */
#define MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS (MAX_NUMNODES*50)
#else
/* By default, allow up to 256 distinct regions */
#define MAX_ACTIVE_REGIONS 256
Since our memory is mostly contiguous it seems reasonable to keep this
at 256 for now. I also set 32bit to 32 to save space (is there any chance
a 32bit system will have more than 32 discontiguous memory ranges?).
Even with that fixed we have a few data structures that grow:
< 896 bootmem_node_data
> 14336 bootmem_node_data
< 1280 node_devices
> 20480 node_devices
< 25088 kmalloc_caches
> 59648 kmalloc_caches
< 1632 hstates
> 21792 hstates

If we are using 1TB segments and we are allowed to randomise the heap, we can
put it above 1TB so it is backed by a 1TB segment. Otherwise the heap will be
in the bottom 1TB which always uses 256MB segments and this may result in a
performance penalty.
This functionality is disabled when heap randomisation is turned off:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space
which may be useful when trying to allocate the maximum amount of 16M or 16G
pages.
On a microbenchmark that repeatedly touches 32GB of memory with a stride of
256MB + 4kB (designed to stress 256MB segments while still mapping nicely into
the L1 cache), we see the improvement:
Force malloc to use heap all the time:
# export MALLOC_MMAP_MAX_=0 MALLOC_TRIM_THRESHOLD_=-1
Disable heap randomization:
# echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space
# time ./test
12.51s
Enable heap randomization:
# echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space
# time ./test
1.70s

The former is no longer really accurate with the swiotlb case now
a possibility. I also move it into dma-mapping.h - it no longer
needs to be in dma.c, and there are about to be some more accessors
that should all end up in the same place. A comment is added to
indicate that this function is not used in configs where there is no
simple dma offset, such as the iommu case.

When using CONFIG_RELOCATABLE, we build the kernel as a position
independent executable. The kernel then uses a little bit of relocation
code to relocate itself. That code only deals with R_PPC64_RELATIVE
relocations though. If for some reason you use assembly constructs
such as LOAD_REG_IMMEDIATE() to load the address of a symbol, you'll
generate different kinds of relocations that won't be processed properly
and bad things will happen. (We have 2 such bugs today).
The perl script tries to filter out "known" bad ones. It's possible
that we are missing some in the case of a weak function that nobody
implements, we'll see if we get false positive and fix it.
