b46522394d Revert "[PATCH] x86: Drop cc-options call for all options supported in gcc 3.2+"
This reverts commit c8fdd24725.

It turns out the kernel was correct, and the gcc complaint was a gcc
bug.  The preferred stack boundary is expressed not in bytes, but in the
the log2() of the preferred boundary, so "-mpreferred-stack-boundary=2"
is in fact exactly what we want, but a gcc that is compiled for x86-64
will consider it an error (because the 64-bit calling sequence says that
the stack should be 16-byte aligned) even if we are then using "-m32" to
generate 32-bit code.

bb49b32fec i386: don't check_pgt_cache in flush_tlb_mm
No other architecture calls check_pgt_cache() from within flush_tlb_mm(),
and i386 is already calling check_pgt_cache() from the usual places,
tlb_finish_mmu() and cpu_idle() (the latter being odd, but not unusual).
flush_tlb_mm() has no business to be freeing pages: remove that line, which
sneaked in with slub's i386 support.

0aa817f078 Slab allocators: define common size limitations
Currently we have a maze of configuration variables that determine the
maximum slab size.  Worst of all it seems to vary between SLAB and SLUB.

So define a common maximum size for kmalloc.  For conveniences sake we use
the maximum size ever supported which is 32 MB.  We limit the maximum size
to a lower limit if MAX_ORDER does not allow such large allocations.

For many architectures this patch will have the effect of adding large
kmalloc sizes.  x86_64 adds 5 new kmalloc sizes.  So a small amount of
memory will be needed for these caches (contemporary SLAB has dynamically
sizeable node and cpu structure so the waste is less than in the past)

Most architectures will then be able to allocate object with sizes up to
MAX_ORDER.  We have had repeated breakage (in fact whenever we doubled the
number of supported processors) on IA64 because one or the other struct
grew beyond what the slab allocators supported.  This will avoid future
issues and f.e.  avoid fixes for 2k and 4k cpu support.

CONFIG_LARGE_ALLOCS is no longer necessary so drop it.

It fixes sparc64 with SLAB.

60e417536b [POWERPC] Pass per-file CFLAGs for platform specific op codes
As a result of compiling all of the wrapper files for every platform
now, the kernel build can fail for toolchains that don't support various
op codes by default.  An example of this building a 7xx platform with
the ELD4.0 toolchain, is below:

/tmp/ccYjhJoL.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccYjhJoL.s:42: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `mtdcr'
/tmp/ccYjhJoL.s:43: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `mfdcr'

The following patch introduces additional CFLAGS for the 4xx specific
files and fixes the kernel compile.

c72ea777d4 [POWERPC] Small fixes for the Ebony device tree
This patch corrects a number of minor errors in the Ebony device tree:
	- Missing (given as 0) cache sizes are added to the CPU node
	- device_type properties are removed from nodes which don't
have a reasonably well defined device_type binding.  This does require
a very small code change to locate the busses to be probed for
of_platform devices by 'compatible' instead of 'device_type'.
	- A node is added for the SRAM controller
	- The unit address of the small-flash node is adjusted to
correctly reflect the reg property.
	- device_type values for the MAL and ZMII are updated to
reflected more up-to-date versions of the binding.
	- An incorrect offset in the partition map for the large-flash
node is corrected.
	- Some redundant values, already commented out are removed
entirely.

de821204db [POWERPC] Fix IO space on PCI buses created from of_platform
This changes the way of_platform_pci creates PCI host bridges such
that it uses request_phb_iospace() for mapping the IO ports, instead
of using the dynamic hotplug stuff.  That guarantees the IO space
stays within the 2GB limit and thus doesn't break half of the legacy
drivers around.

Fixes a couple of warnings due to missing IO space while at it.

This patch is a temporary workaround for 2.6.22 before a more complete
rewrite of IO mappings is merged in 2.6.23

7c40542ffa [POWERPC] Fix bug adding properties with flatdevtree.c's ft_set_prop()
ft_set_prop() from flatdevtree.c in the zImage wrapper will either
replace an existing property in the flat device tree, or add a new
property definiion if the given property isn't present.

However, when adding properties, it adds the property definition
immediately before the node's END_NODE tag, potentially after any
subnode definitions for the node.  This confuses the kernel flat tree
parser in prom.c which assumes that all property definitions for a
node come before all subnode definitions.

This patch corrects ft_set_prop() so that it adds new properties
before the first subnode, instead of before the END_NODE tag.

some API calls reliably.  So add a small set of interfaces
to request API versions and query current settings.

This allows us to fix some bugs in the hypervisor console:

1) If we can negotiate API group CORE of at least major 1
   minor 1 we can use con_read and con_write which can improve
   console performance quite a bit.

2) When we do a console write request, we should hold the
   spinlock around the whole request, not a byte at a time.
   What would happen is that it's easy for output from
   different cpus to get mixed with each other.

3) Use consistent udelay() based polling, udelay(1) each
   loop with a limit of 1000 polls to handle stuck hypervisor
   console.

28aa483f80 x86: Fix discontigmem + non-HIGHMEM compile
It's not necessarily a very sane configuration, but people running "make
randconfig" noticed it wouldn't compile.  This fixes some obvious
problems in discontig.c to allow a clean compile.

17028c5c91 [IA64] Fix section conflict of ia64_mlogbuf_finish
Building with GCC 4.2, I get the following error:

  CC      arch/ia64/kernel/mca.o
arch/ia64/kernel/mca.c:275: error: __ksymtab_ia64_mlogbuf_finish causes a
section type conflict

This is because ia64_mlogbuf_finish is both declared static and exported.
Fix by removing the export (which is unneeded now).

This adds an smp_ops for voyager, and hooks things up appropriately.  This is
the first baby-step to making subarch runtime switchable.

297d9c035e i386: move common parts of smp into their own file
Several parts of kernel/smp.c and smpboot.c are generally useful for other
subarchitectures and paravirt_ops implementations, so make them available for
reuse.

m68k: implement __clear_user(), which is needed by fs/signalfd.c

Since we always let the MMU do all checking, clear_user() and __clear_user()
are identical. The old clear_user() is renamed to __clear_user() for
consistency.
