MIPS FPU emulator: allow Cause bits of FCSR to be writeable by ctc1
In the FPU emulator code of the MIPS, the Cause bits of the FCSR register
are not currently writeable by the ctc1 instruction. In odd corner cases,
this can cause problems. For example, a case existed where a divide-by-zero
exception was generated by the FPU, and the signal handler attempted to
restore the FPU registers to their state before the exception occurred. In
this particular setup, writing the old value to the FCSR register would
cause another divide-by-zero exception to occur immediately. The solution
is to change the ctc1 instruction emulator code to allow the Cause bits of
the FCSR register to be writeable. This is the behaviour of the hardware
that the code is emulating.
This problem was found by Shane McDonald, but the credit for the fix goes
to Kevin Kissell. In Kevin's words:
I submit that the bug is indeed in that ctc_op: case of the emulator. The
Cause bits (17:12) are supposed to be writable by that instruction, but the
CTC1 emulation won't let them be updated by the instruction. I think that
actually if you just completely removed lines 387-388 [...] things would
work a good deal better. At least, it would be a more accurate emulation of
the architecturally defined FPU. If I wanted to be really, really pedantic
(which I sometimes do), I'd also protect the reserved bits that aren't
necessarily writable.

Fix the regression created by "set S_DEAD on unlink()..." commit
1) i_flags simply doesn't work for mount/unlink race prevention;
we may have many links to file and rm on one of those obviously
shouldn't prevent bind on top of another later on. To fix it
right way we need to mark _dentry_ as unsuitable for mounting
upon; new flag (DCACHE_CANT_MOUNT) is protected by d_flags and
i_mutex on the inode in question. Set it (with dont_mount(dentry))
in unlink/rmdir/etc., check (with cant_mount(dentry)) in places
in namespace.c that used to check for S_DEAD. Setting S_DEAD
is still needed in places where we used to set it (for directories
getting killed), since we rely on it for readdir/rmdir race
prevention.
2) rename()/mount() protection has another bogosity - we unhash
the target before we'd checked that it's not a mountpoint. Fixed.
3) ancient bogosity in pivot_root() - we locked i_mutex on the
right directory, but checked S_DEAD on the different (and wrong)
one. Noticed and fixed.

Revert "PCI: update bridge resources to get more big ranges in PCI assign unssigned"
This reverts commit 977d17bb1749517b353874ccdc9b85abc7a58c2a, because it
can cause problems with some devices not getting any resources at all
when the resource tree is re-allocated.

CacheFiles: Fix error handling in cachefiles_determine_cache_security()
cachefiles_determine_cache_security() is expected to return with a
security override in place. However, if set_create_files_as() fails, we
fail to do this. In this case, we should just reinstate the security
override that was set by the caller.
Furthermore, if set_create_files_as() fails, we should dispose of the
new credentials we were in the process of creating.

rwsem: Test for no active locks in __rwsem_do_wake undo code
If there are no active threasd using a semaphore, it is always correct
to unqueue blocked threads. This seems to be what was intended in the
undo code.
What was done instead, was to look for a sem count of zero - this is an
impossible situation, given that at least one thread is known to be
queued on the semaphore. The code might be correct as written, but it's
hard to reason about and it's not what was intended (otherwise the goto
out would have been unconditional).
Go for checking the active count - the alternative is not worth the
headache.

Previously it was unconditionally used on all Sibyte family SOCs. The
M3 bug has to be handled in the TLB exception handler which is extremly
performance sensitive, so this modification is expected to deliver around
2-3% performance improvment. This is important as required changes to the
M3 workaround will make it more costly.
There's nastyness in the way we currently handle barriers (and
discards): They're effectively filesystem commands, but they get
processed as BLOCK_PC commands. Unfortunately BLOCK_PC commands are
taken by SCSI to be SG_IO commands and the issuer expects to see and
handle any returned errors, however trivial. This leads to a huge
problem, because the block layer doesn't expect this to happen and any
trivially retryable error on a barrier causes an immediate I/O error
to the filesystem.
The only real way to hack around this is to take the usual class of
offending errors (unit attentions) and make them all retryable in the
case of a REQ_HARDBARRIER. A correct fix would involve a rework of
the entire block and SCSI submit system, and so is out of scope for a
quick fix.

Some arrays are giving I/O errors with ext3 filesystems when
SYNCHRONIZE_CACHE gets a UNIT_ATTENTION. What is happening is that
these commands have no retries, so the UNIT_ATTENTION causes the
barrier to fail. We should be enable retries here to clear any
transient error and allow the barrier to succeed.

In the scsi_debug driver, the virtual_gb option ignores the
sector_size, implicitly assuming that is 512 bytes. So if
'virtual_gb=1 sector_size=4096' the result is an 8 GB (virtual) disk.

[SCSI] libiscsi: don't increment cmdsn if cmd is not sent
in 2.6.32.
When I moved the hdr->cmdsn after init_task, I added
a bug when header digests are used. The problem is
that the LLD may calculate the header digest in init_task,
so if we then set the cmdsn after the init_task call we
change what the digest will be calculated by the target.

commit 672917dcc78 ("cpuidle: menu governor: reduce latency on exit")
added an optimization, where the analysis on the past idle period moved
from the end of idle, to the beginning of the new idle.
Unfortunately, this optimization had a bug where it zeroed one key
variable for new use, that is needed for the analysis. The fix is
simple, zero the variable after doing the work from the previous idle.
During the audit of the code that found this issue, another issue was
also found; the ->measured_us data structure member is never set, a
local variable is always used instead.

Multiple Lenovo ThinkPad models with Intel Core i5/i7 CPUs can
successfully suspend/resume once, and then hang on the second s/r
cycle.
We got confirmation that this was due to a BIOS defect. The BIOS
did not properly set SCI_EN coming out of S3. The BIOS guys
hinted that The Other Leading OS ignores the fact that hardware
owns the bit and sets it manually.
In any case, an existing DMI table exists for machines where this
defect is a known problem. Lenovo promise to fix their BIOS, but
for folks who either won't or can't upgrade their BIOS, allow
Linux to workaround the issue.
Confirmed by numerous testers in the launchpad bug that using
acpi_sleep=sci_force_enable fixes the issue. We add the machines
to acpisleep_dmi_table[] to automatically enable this workaround.

Some time ago we stopped the clean/active metadata updates
from being written to a 'spare' device in most cases so that
it could spin down and say spun down. Device failure/removal
etc are still recorded on spares.
However commit 51d5668cb2e3fd1827a55 broke this 50% of the time,
depending on whether the event count is even or odd.
The change log entry said:
This means that the alignment between 'odd/even' and
'clean/dirty' might take a little longer to attain,
how ever the code makes no attempt to create that alignment, so it
could take arbitrarily long.
So when we find that clean/dirty is not aligned with odd/even,
force a second metadata-update immediately. There are already cases
where a second metadata-update is needed immediately (e.g. when a
device fails during the metadata update). We just piggy-back on that.
There is a typo here. We should be testing "*dentry" instead of
"dentry". If "*dentry" is an ERR_PTR, it gets dereferenced in either
mkdir() or create() which would cause an OOPs.

If request_resource() fails, we leak the struct resource we
allocated to represent the IOMMU mapping area.
This actually happens on sun4v machines because the IOMEM area is only
reported sans the IOMMU region, unlike all previous systems. I'll
need to fix that at some point, but for now fix the leak.

If we are in an NMI then doing a plain raw_local_irq_disable() will
write PIL_NORMAL_MAX into %pil, which is lower than PIL_NMI, and thus
we'll re-enable NMIs and recurse.
Doing a simple:
%pil = %pil | PIL_NORMAL_MAX
does what we want, if we're already at PIL_NMI (15) we leave it at
that setting, else we set it to PIL_NORMAL_MAX (14).
This should get the function tracer working on sparc64.
