Fix a post-2.6.21 regression.
read_cache_page_async() has two invocations of mark_page_accessed() which will
launch pages right onto the active list.
Remove the first one, keeping the latter one. This avoids marking unwanted
pages active (in the retry loop).

When cleaning up HIDP sessions, we currently close the ACL connection
before deregistering the input device. Closing the ACL connection
schedules a workqueue to remove the associated objects from sysfs, but
the input device still refers to them -- and if the workqueue happens to
run before the input device removal, the kernel will oops when trying to
look up PHYSDEVPATH for the removed input device.
Fix this by deregistering the input device before closing the
connections.

In 7d12e780e0 David Howells performed
this evolution:
"IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers"
He correctly updated many of the function definitions that were using this
extra regs pointer parameter but forgot to update some caller sites of
those functions. The reason the modifications was not properly done on all
drivers is that some drivers were rarely compiled because they are for
AMIGA, or that some code sites were inside #ifdefs where the option is not
set or inside #if 0.
Here is the semantic patch that found the occurences
and fixed the problem.

When we enable the SMCf010 IR device, the Toshiba Portege 4000 BIOS claims
the device is working, but it really isn't configured correctly. The BIOS
*will* configure it, but only if we call _SRS after (1) reversing the order
of the SIR and FIR I/O port regions and (2) changing the IRQ from
active-high to active-low.
This patch addresses the 2.6.22 regression:
"no irda0 interface (2.6.21 was OK), smsc does not find chip"
I tested this on a Portege 4000. The smsc-ircc2 driver correctly detects

Processors synchronization in set_mtrr requires the .gate field to be set
after .count field is properly initialized. Without an explicit barrier,
the compiler was reordering those memory stores. That was sometimes
causing a processor (in ipi_handler) to see the .gate change and decrement
.count before the latter is set by set_mtrr() (which then hangs in a
infinite loop with irqs disabled).

The commit 635cf99a80 introduced a
regression. Executing a ptrace single step after certain int80
accesses will infinitely loop and never advance the PC.
The TIF_SINGLESTEP check should be done on the return from the syscall
and not before it.
I loops on each single step on the pop right after the int80 which writes out
to the console. At that point you can issue as many single steps as you want
and it will not advance any further.

elf_core_dump() supports dumping arch specific ELF notes, via the #define
ELF_CORE_WRITE_EXTRA_NOTES. Currently the only user of this is the powerpc
spu coredump code.
There is a bug in the handling of foffset WRT the arch notes, which causes
us to erroneously increment foffset by the size of the arch notes, leaving
a block of zeroes in the file, and causing all subsequent data in the file
to be at <supposed position> + <arch note size>. eg:
LOAD 0x050000 0x00100000 0x00000000 0x20000 0x20000 R E 0x10000
Tells us we should have a chunk of data at 0x50000. The truth is the data
is at 0x90dbc = 0x50000 + 0x40dbc (the size of the arch notes).
This bug prevents gdb from reading the core file correctly.
The simplest fix is to simply remember the size of the arch notes, and add
it to foffset after we've written the arch notes. The only drawback is
that if the arch code doesn't write as many bytes as it said it would, we
end up with a broken core dump again. For now I think that's a reasonable
requirement.
Tested on a Cell blade, gdb no longer complains about the core file being
bogus.
While I'm here I should point out that the spu coredump code does not work
if we're dumping to a pipe - we'll have to wait for 23 to fix that.

The idle loop goes to sleep using the WAIT instruction if !need_resched().
This has is suffering from from a race condition that if if just after
need_resched has returned 0 an interrupt might set TIF_NEED_RESCHED but
we've just completed the test so go to sleep anyway. This would be
trivial to fix by just disabling interrupts during that sequence as in:
local_irq_disable();
if (!need_resched())
__asm__("wait");
local_irq_enable();
but the processor architecture leaves it undefined if a processor calling
WAIT with interrupts disabled will ever restart its pipeline and indeed
some processors have made use of the freedom provided by the architecture
definition. This has been resolved and the Config7.WII bit indicates that
the use of WAIT is safe on 24K, 24KE and 34K cores. It also is safe on
74K starting revision 2.1.0 so enable the use of WAIT with interrupts
disabled for 74K based on a c0_prid of at least that.

Commit b46b8f19c9 fixed a couple of bugs
by switching the redzone to 64 bits. Unfortunately, it neglected to
ensure that the _second_ redzone, after the slab object, is aligned
correctly. This caused illegal instruction faults on sparc32, which for
some reason not entirely clear to me are not trapped and fixed up.
Two things need to be done to fix this:
- increase the object size, rounding up to alignof(long long) so
that the second redzone can be aligned correctly.
- If SLAB_STORE_USER is set but alignof(long long)==8, allow a
full 64 bits of space for the user word at the end of the buffer,
even though we may not _use_ the whole 64 bits.
This patch should be a no-op on any 64-bit architecture or any 32-bit
architecture where alignof(long long) == 4. Of the others, it's tested
on ppc32 by myself and a very similar patch was tested on sparc32 by
Mark Fortescue, who reported the new problem.
Also, fix the conditions for FORCED_DEBUG, which hadn't been adjusted to
the new sizes. Again noticed by Mark.

Badari Pulavarty reported a case of this BUG_ON is triggering during
testing. It's completely bogus and should be removed.
It's trying to notice if we left references to the dio hanging around in
the sync case. They should have been dropped as IO completed while this
path was in dio_await_completion(). This condition will also be
checked, via some twisty logic, by the BUG_ON(ret != -EIOCBQUEUED) a few
lines lower. So to start this BUG_ON() is redundant.
More fatally, it's dereferencing dio-> after having dropped its
reference. It's only safe to dereference the dio after releasing the
lock if the final reference was just dropped. Another CPU might free
the dio in bio completion and reuse the memory after this path drops the
dio lock but before the BUG_ON() is evaluated.
This patch passed aio+dio regression unit tests and aio-stress on ext3.
