Define SCSPTR1 for SH 7751R

After the recent commit to kill off SCI/SCIF special casing SH 7751R
fails to compile with CONFIG_SH_RTS7751R2D set. This is because SCSPTR1
is undefined. Take the value for SCSPTR1 from the SH7751R Group Hardware
Manual.

xfrm: do not leak ESRCH to user space

I noticed that, under certain conditions, ESRCH can be leaked from the
xfrm layer to user space through sys_connect. In particular, this seems
to happen reliably when the kernel fails to resolve a template either
because the AF_KEY receive buffer being used by racoon is full or
because the SA entry we are trying to use is in XFRM_STATE_EXPIRED
state.

However, since this could be a transient issue it could be argued that
EAGAIN would be more appropriate. Besides this error code is not even
documented in the man page for sys_connect (as of man-pages 3.07).

netfilter: nf_conntrack_proto_gre: switch to register_pernet_gen_subsys()

register_pernet_gen_device() can't be used is nf_conntrack_pptp module is
also used (compiled in or loaded).

Right now, proto_gre_net_exit() is called before nf_conntrack_pptp_net_exit().
The former shutdowns and frees GRE piece of netns, however the latter
absolutely needs it to flush keymap. Oops is inevitable.

netns: add register_pernet_gen_subsys/unregister_pernet_gen_subsys

netns ops which are registered with register_pernet_gen_device() are
shutdown strictly before those which are registered with
register_pernet_subsys(). Sometimes this leads to opposite (read: buggy)
shutdown ordering between two modules.

Add register_pernet_gen_subsys()/unregister_pernet_gen_subsys() for modules
which aren't elite enough for entry in struct net, and which can't use
register_pernet_gen_device(). PPTP conntracking module is such one.

libata: add whitelist for devices with known good pata-sata bridges

libata currently imposes a UDMA5 max transfer rate and 200 sector max
transfer size for SATA devices that sit behind a pata-sata bridge. Lots
of devices have known good bridges that don't need this limit applied.
The MTRON SSD disks are such devices. Transfer rates are increased by
20-30% with the restriction removed.

So add a "blacklist" entry for the MTRON devices, with a flag indicating
that the bridge is known good.

sata_via: fix support for 5287

5287 used to be treated as vt6420 but it didn't work. It's new family
of controllers called vt8251 which hosts four SATA ports as M/S of the
two ATA ports. This configuration is rather peculiar in that although
the M/S devices are on the same port, each have its own SCR (or
equivalent link status/control) registers which screws up the
port-link-device hierarchy assumed by libata. Another controller
which falls into this category is ata_piix w/ SIDPR access.

libata now has facility to deal with this class of controllers named
slave_link. A low level driver for such controllers can just call
ata_slave_link_init() on the respective ports and libata will handle
all the difficult parts like following up with single SRST after
hardresetting both ports.

This patch creates new controller class vt8251, implements slave_link
aware init sequence and config space based SCR access for it and moves
5287 to the new class.

This patch is based on Joseph Chan's larger patch which was created
before slave_link was implemented in libata.

libata: Avoid overflow in ata_tf_to_lba48() when tf->hba_lbal > 127

In ata_tf_to_lba48(), when evaluating

(tf->hob_lbal & 0xff) << 24

the expression is promoted to signed int (since int can hold all values
of u8). However, if hob_lbal is 128 or more, then it is treated as a
negative signed value and sign-extended when promoted to u64 to | into
sectors, which leads to the MSB 32 bits of section getting set
incorrectly.

For example, Phillip O'Donnell <phillip.odonnell@gmail.com> reported
that a 1.5GB drive caused:

ata3.00: HPA detected: current 2930277168, native 18446744072344861488

where 2930277168 == 0xAEA87B30 and 18446744072344861488 == 0xffffffffaea87b30
which shows the problem when hob_lbal is 0xae.

Fix this by adding a cast to u64, just as is used by for hob_lbah and
hob_lbam in the function.

powerpc/cell/OProfile: Fix on-stack array size in activate spu profiling function

The size of the pm_signal_local array should be equal to the
number of SPUs being configured in the array. Currently, the
array is of size 4 (NR_PHYS_CTRS) but being indexed by a for
loop from 0 to 7 (NUM_SPUS_PER_NODE). This could potentially
cause an oops or random memory corruption since the pm_signal_local
array is on the stack. This fixes it.

powerpc/mpic: Fix regression caused by change of default IRQ affinity

The Freescale implementation of MPIC only allows a single CPU destination
for non-IPI interrupts. We add a flag to the mpic_init to distinquish
these variants of MPIC. We pull in the irq_choose_cpu from sparc64 to
select a single CPU as the destination of the interrupt.

This is to deal with the fact that the default smp affinity was
changed by commit 18404756765c713a0be4eb1082920c04822ce588 ("genirq:
Expose default irq affinity mask (take 3)") to be all CPUs.

powerpc: Update remaining dma_mapping_ops to use map/unmap_page

After the merge of the 32 and 64bit DMA code, dma_direct_ops lost
their map/unmap_single() functions but gained map/unmap_page(). This
caused a problem for Cell because Cell's dma_iommu_fixed_ops called
the dma_direct_ops if the fixed linear mapping was to be used or the
iommu ops if the dynamic window was to be used. So in order to fix
this problem we need to update the 64bit DMA code to use
map/unmap_page.

First, we update the generic IOMMU code so that iommu_map_single()
becomes iommu_map_page() and iommu_unmap_single() becomes
iommu_unmap_page(). Then we propagate these changes up through all
the callers of these two functions and in the process update all the
dma_mapping_ops so that they have map/unmap_page rahter than
map/unmap_single. We can do this because on 64bit there is no HIGHMEM
memory so map/unmap_page ends up performing exactly the same function
as map/unmap_single, just taking different arguments.

This has no affect on drivers because the dma_map_single_attrs() just
ends up calling the map_page() function of the appropriate
dma_mapping_ops and similarly the dma_unmap_single_attrs() calls
unmap_page().

This fixes an oops on Cell blades, which oops on boot without this
because they call dma_direct_ops.map_single, which is NULL.

powerpc/pci: Fix unmapping of IO space on 64-bit

A typo/thinko made us pass the wrong argument to __flush_hash_table_range
when unplugging bridges, thus not flushing all the translations for
the IO space on unplug. The third parameter to __flush_hash_table_range
is `end', not `size'.

powerpc/pci: Properly allocate bus resources for hotplug PHBs

Resources for PHB's that are dynamically added to a system are not
properly allocated in the resource tree.

Not having these resources allocated causes an oops when removing
the PHB when we try to release them.

The diff appears a bit messy, this is mainly due to moving everything
one tab to the left in the pcibios_allocate_bus_resources routine.
The functionality change in this routine is only that the
list_for_each_entry() loop is pulled out and moved to the necessary
calling routine.

OF-device: Don't overwrite numa_node in device registration

Currently, the numa_node of OF-devices will be overwritten during
device_register, which simply sets the node to -1. On cell machines,
this means that devices can't find their IOMMU, which is referenced
through the device's numa node.

Set the numa node for OF devices with no parent, and use the
lower-level device_initialize and device_add functions, so that the
node is preserved.

We can remove the call to set_dev_node in of_device_alloc, as it
will be overwritten during register.

powerpc: Fix swapcontext system for VSX + old ucontext size

Since VSX support was added, we now have two sizes of ucontext_t;
the older, smaller size without the extra VSX state, and the new
larger size with the extra VSX state. A program using the
sys_swapcontext system call and supplying smaller ucontext_t
structures will currently get an EINVAL error if the task has
used VSX (e.g. because of calling library code that uses VSX) and
the old_ctx argument is non-NULL (i.e. the program is asking for
its current context to be saved). Thus the program will start
getting EINVAL errors on calls that previously worked.

This commit changes this behaviour so that we don't send an EINVAL in
this case. It will now return the smaller context but the VSX MSR bit
will always be cleared to indicate that the ucontext_t doesn't include
the extra VSX state, even if the task has executed VSX instructions.

Both 32 and 64 bit cases are updated.

powerpc: Work around ld bug in older binutils

Commit 549e8152de8039506f69c677a4546e5427aa6ae7 ("powerpc: Make the
64-bit kernel as a position-independent executable") added lines to
vmlinux.lds.S to add the extra sections needed to implement a
relocatable kernel. However, those lines seem to trigger a bug in
older versions of GNU ld (such as 2.16.1) when building a
non-relocatable kernel. Since ld 2.16.1 is still a popular choice for
cross-toolchains, this adds an #ifdef to vmlinux.lds.S so the added
lines are only included when building a relocatable kernel.

powerpc/ppc64/kdump: Better flag for running relocatable

The __kdump_flag ABI is overly constraining for future development.

As of 2.6.27, the kernel entry point has 4 constraints: Offset 0 is
the starting point for the master (boot) cpu (entered with r3 pointing
to the device tree structure), offset 0x60 is code for the slave cpus
(entered with r3 set to their device tree physical id), offset 0x20 is
used by the iseries hypervisor, and secondary cpus must be well behaved
when the first 256 bytes are copied to address 0.

Placing the __kdump_flag at 0x18 is bad because:

- It was taking the last 8 bytes before the iseries hypervisor data.
- It was 8 bytes for a boolean flag
- It had no way of identifying that the flag was present
- It does leave any room for the master to add any additional code
before branching, which hurts debug.
- It will be unnecessarily hard for 32 bit code to be common (8 bytes)

Now that we have eliminated the use of __kdump_flag in favor of
the standard is_kdump_kernel(), this flag only controls run without
relocating the kernel to PHYSICAL_START (0), so rename it __run_at_load.

Move the flag to 0x5c, 1 word before the secondary cpu entry point at
0x60. Initialize it with "run0" to say it will run at 0 unless it is
set to 1. It only exists if we are relocatable.
