ee348d5a1d [ARM] realview: fix broadcast tick support
Having discussed broadcast tick support with Thomas Glexiner, the
broadcast tick devices should be registered with a higher rating
than the global tick device, and it should have the ONESHOT and
PERIODIC feature flags set.

0f6f49a8cd Fix caller information for warn_slowpath_null
Ian Campbell noticed that since "Eliminate thousands of warnings with
gcc 3.2 build" (commit 57adc4d2db) all
WARN_ON()'s currently appear to come from warn_slowpath_null(), eg:

  WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:143 warn_slowpath_null+0x1c/0x20()

because now that warn_slowpath_null() is in the call path, the
__builtin_return_address(0) returns that, rather than the place that
caused the warning.

Fix this by splitting up the warn_slowpath_null/fmt cases differently,
using a common helper function, and getting the return address in the
right place.  This also happens to avoid the unnecessary stack usage for
the non-stdargs case, and just generally cleans things up.

Make the function name printout use %pS while at it.

ff05c0330b [ARM] 5509/1: ep93xx: clkdev enable UARTS
Fix the clkdev API support for the ep93xx uart clocks.

The uarts available in the ep93xx have individual clock controls.
The current implementation assumes that the bootloader has enabled
the clocks before the kernel has booted. It also assumes that the
bootloader has set the UARTBAUD bit indicating that the uarts are
running off the 14.7456MHz external crystal.

This fixes both issues. It also allows the uart clocks to be stopped
when there are no users.

8dbe43930a ARM: OMAP3: Fix HW SAVEANDRESTORE shift define
The OMAP3430ES2_SAVEANDRESTORE_SHIFT macro is used
by powerdomain code in
"1 << OMAP3430ES2_SAVEANDRESTORE_SHIFT" manner, but
the definition was also (1 << 4), meaning we actually
modified bit 16. So the definition needs to be 4.

This fixes also a cold reset HW bug in OMAP3430 ES3.x
where some of the efuse bits are not isolated during
wake-up from off mode. This can cause randomish
cold resets with off mode. Enabling the USBTLL hardware
SAVEANDRESTORE causes the core power up assert to be
delayed in a way that we will not get faulty values
when boot ROM is reading the unisolated registers.

a0bf284bfe ACPI: Idle C-states disabled by max_cstate should not disable the TSC
Processor idle power states C2 and C3 stop the TSC on many machines.
Linux recognizes this situation and marks the TSC as unstable:

Marking TSC unstable due to TSC halts in idle

But if those same machines are booted with "processor.max_cstate=1",
then there is no need to validate C2 and C3, and no need to
disable the TSC, which can be reliably used as a clocksource.

4bca328643 libata: Media rotation rate and form factor heuristics
This patch provides new heuristics for parsing both the form factor and
media rotation rate ATA IDENFITY words.

The reported ATA version must be 7 or greater and the device must return
values defined as valid in the standard.  Only then are the
characteristics reported to SCSI via the VPD B1 page.

This seems like a reasonable compromise to me considering that we have
been shipping several kernel releases that key off the rotation rate bit
without any version checking whatsoever.  With no complaints so far.

b4ecc12699 x86: Fix performance regression caused by paravirt_ops on native kernels
Xiaohui Xin and some other folks at Intel have been looking into what's
behind the performance hit of paravirt_ops when running native.

It appears that the hit is entirely due to the paravirtualized
spinlocks introduced by:

 | commit 8efcbab674
 | Date:   Mon Jul 7 12:07:51 2008 -0700
 |
 |     paravirt: introduce a "lock-byte" spinlock implementation

The extra call/return in the spinlock path is somehow
causing an increase in the cycles/instruction of somewhere around 2-7%
(seems to vary quite a lot from test to test).  The working theory is
that the CPU's pipeline is getting upset about the
call->call->locked-op->return->return, and seems to be failing to
speculate (though I haven't seen anything definitive about the precise
reasons).  This doesn't entirely make sense, because the performance
hit is also visible on unlock and other operations which don't involve
locked instructions.  But spinlock operations clearly swamp all the
other pvops operations, even though I can't imagine that they're
nearly as common (there's only a .05% increase in instructions
executed).

If I disable just the pv-spinlock calls, my tests show that pvops is
identical to non-pvops performance on native (my measurements show that
it is actually about .1% faster, but Xiaohui shows a .05% slowdown).

Summary of results, averaging 10 runs of the "mmperf" test, using a
no-pvops build as baseline:

		nopv		Pv-nospin	Pv-spin
CPU cycles	100.00%		99.89%		102.18%
instructions	100.00%		100.10%		100.15%
CPI		100.00%		99.79%		102.03%
cache ref	100.00%		100.84%		100.28%
cache miss	100.00%		90.47%		88.56%
cache miss rate	100.00%		89.72%		88.31%
branches	100.00%		99.93%		100.04%
branch miss	100.00%		103.66%		107.72%
branch miss rt	100.00%		103.73%		107.67%
wallclock	100.00%		99.90%		102.20%

The clear effect here is that the 2% increase in CPI is
directly reflected in the final wallclock time.

(The other interesting effect is that the more ops are
out of line calls via pvops, the lower the cache access
and miss rates.  Not too surprising, but it suggests that
the non-pvops kernel is over-inlined.  On the flipside,
the branch misses go up correspondingly...)

So, what's the fix?

Paravirt patching turns all the pvops calls into direct calls, so
_spin_lock etc do end up having direct calls.  For example, the compiler
generated code for paravirtualized _spin_lock is:

<_spin_lock+0>:		mov    %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>:		incl   0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>:	callq  *0xffffffff805a5b30
<_spin_lock+22>:	retq

The indirect call will get patched to:
<_spin_lock+0>:		mov    %gs:0xb4c8,%rax
<_spin_lock+9>:		incl   0xffffffffffffe044(%rax)
<_spin_lock+15>:	callq <__ticket_spin_lock>
<_spin_lock+20>:	nop; nop		/* or whatever 2-byte nop */
<_spin_lock+22>:	retq

One possibility is to inline _spin_lock, etc, when building an
optimised kernel (ie, when there's no spinlock/preempt
instrumentation/debugging enabled).  That will remove the outer
call/return pair, returning the instruction stream to a single
call/return, which will presumably execute the same as the non-pvops
case.  The downsides arel 1) it will replicate the
preempt_disable/enable code at eack lock/unlock callsite; this code is
fairly small, but not nothing; and 2) the spinlock definitions are
already a very heavily tangled mass of #ifdefs and other preprocessor
magic, and making any changes will be non-trivial.

The other obvious answer is to disable pv-spinlocks.  Making them a
separate config option is fairly easy, and it would be trivial to
enable them only when Xen is enabled (as the only non-default user).
But it doesn't really address the common case of a distro build which
is going to have Xen support enabled, and leaves the open question of
whether the native performance cost of pv-spinlocks is worth the
performance improvement on a loaded Xen system (10% saving of overall
system CPU when guests block rather than spin).  Still it is a
reasonable short-term workaround.

1f71ebedb3 devpts: correctly set default options
devpts_get_sb() calls memset(0) to clear mount options and calls
parse_mount_options() if user specified any mount options.

The memset(0) is bogus since the 'mode' and 'ptmxmode' options are
non-zero by default.  parse_mount_options() restores options to default
anyway and can properly deal with NULL mount options.

So in devpts_get_sb() remove memset(0) and call parse_mount_options() even
for NULL mount options.

3ac19bb443 [ARM] S3C: Do not set clk->owner field if unset
The s3c24xx_register_clock() function has been doing a test
on clk->owner to see if it is NULL, and then setting itself
as the owner if clk->owner == NULL.

This is not needed, arch/arm/plat-s3c/clock.c cannot be
compiled as a module, and even if it was, it should not be
playing with this field if it being registered from somewhere
else.

The best course of action is to remove this bit of
code completely.

the registration to fail due to kmalloc() not being available
