Fix of performance and stability issues on Intel NOR chips. It fixes:
1. Very low write performance on Sibley (perf tests demonstrated write
performance less than 100Kb/sec when it should be over 400Kb/sec).
2. Low erase performance. (perf tests on Sibleuy demonstrated erase
performance 246Kb/sec when it should be over 300Kb/sec).
3. Error on JFFS2 tests with CPU loading application when MTD returns
"block erase error: (status timeout)" To fix the issue it does the
following:
1. Removes the timeout tuning from inval_cache_and_wait_for_operation.
2. Waiting conditions in inval_cache_and_wait_for_operation now is
based on timer resolution
If timeout is lower than timer resolution then we do in cycle
"Checking the status"
udelay(1);
cond_resched();
If timeout is greater than timer resolution (probably erase
operation) We do the following
sleep for half of operation timeout and do in cycle the following
"Checking the status"
sleep for timer resolution

Trying to pass kernel command line arguments to block2mtd at boot-time does
not work currently. block2mtd_setup() is called so early that kmalloc()
fails nevermind being able to do open_bdev_excl() (which requires rootfs to
be mounted. This patch only saves the option string at the early boot stage,
and parses them later when block2mtd_init() is called. If open_bdev_excl()
fails, open_by_devnum(name_to_dev_t()) is tried instead, which makes it
possible to initialize the driver before rootfs has been mounted. Also gets
rid of the superfluous parse_name() that only checks if name is longer than
80 chars and copies it to a string that is not kfreed.
With this patch, I can boot statically compiled block2mtd, and mount jffs2
as rootfs (without modules or initrd), with lilo config like this:
root=/dev/mtdblock0
append="rootfstype=jffs2 block2mtd.block2mtd=/dev/hdc2,65536"
(Note that rootfstype=jffs2 is required, since the kernel only tries
filesystems without "nodev" attribute by default, and jffs is "nodev").
Compared to first version of this patch, this one does not copy the
parameters to the global buffer if init has already been called, and the
global array is marked as __initdata.
Compared to the second version of this patch, module build is fixed.
Compared to the third version of this patch, statically compiled block2mtd
driver with no boot-time parameter no longer gives spurious error 'cannot
open device ""'

There is a code sequence where the locking is substream->self_group.lock
-> ins->scbs[index].lock
substream->self_group.lock is interrupt safe, and taken from irq context
as well (trace is snipped for brevity)
so what can happen is
cpu 0 cpu 1
user context user context
take ins->scbs[index].lock without disabling interrupts
get substream->self_group.lock (irqsafe)
try to get ins->scbs[index].lock (spins)
interrupt happens
try to get substream->self_group.lock (spins)
which is an obvious AB-BA deadlock
fix is to just take the lock with _irqsafe

mthca: initialize send and receive queue locks separately
lockdep identifies a lock by the call site of its initialization. By
initializing the send and receive queue locks in mthca_wq_init() we confuse
lockdep. It warns that that the ordered acquiry of both locks in
mthca_modify_qp() is recursive acquiry of one lock:
=============================================
[ INFO: possible recursive locking detected ]
---------------------------------------------
modprobe/1192 is trying to acquire lock:
(&wq->lock){....}, at: [<f892b4db>] mthca_modify_qp+0x60/0xa7b [ib_mthca]
but task is already holding lock:
(&wq->lock){....}, at: [<f892b4ce>] mthca_modify_qp+0x53/0xa7b [ib_mthca]
Initializing the locks separately in mthca_alloc_qp_common() stops the
warning and will let lockdep enforce proper ordering on paths that acquire
both locks.

I found a bug in memory hot-add code for ia64.
IA64's code has copies of pgdat's array on each node to reduce memory
access over crossing node. This array is used by NODE_DATA() macro. When
new node is hot-added, this pgdat's array should be updated and copied on
new node too.
However, I used for_each_online_node() in scatter_node_data() to copy
it. This meant its array is not copied on new node.
Because initialization of structures for new node was halfway,
so online_node_map couldn't be set at this time.
To copy arrays on new node, I changed it to check value of pgdat_list[]
which is source array of copies. I tested this patch with my Memory Hotadd
emulation on Tiger4. This patch is for 2.6.17-git20.
