This patch might fix problems with 4G or more of memory.
It stops the driver from doing a small optimization for Tx and Rx,
and instead always sets the high-page on tx/rx descriptors.

Way back when (in commit 834f2a4a15, aka
"VFS: Allow the filesystem to return a full file pointer on open intent"
to be exact), Trond changed the open logic to keep track of the original
flags to a file open, in order to pass down the the intent of a dentry
lookup to the low-level filesystem.
However, when doing that reorganization, it changed the meaning of
namei_flags, and thus inadvertently changed the test of access mode for
directories (and RO filesystem) to use the wrong flag. So fix those
test back to use access mode ("acc_mode") rather than the open flag
("flag").

Here's the reworked patch.
This cleans up some unnecessary byte-swapping while setting up tx and
interpreting rx desc. The 64 bit rx status data should be converted
to host endian format only once and the macros just need to extract
bitfields.
This saves a spate of interrupts on pseries blades caused by buggy
(non) processing rx status ring.

netxen driver allows limited number of threads simultaneously posting
skb's in tx ring. If transmit slot is unavailable, driver calls
schedule() or loops in xmit_frame().
This patch returns TX_BUSY and lets the stack reschedule the packet if
transmit slot is unavailable. Also removes unnecessary check for tx
timeout in the driver itself, the network stack does that anyway.

The bridge code incorrectly causes two POST_ROUTING hook invocations
for DNATed packets that end up on the same bridge device. This
happens because packets with a changed destination address are passed
to dst_output() to make them go through the neighbour output function
again to build a new destination MAC address, before they will continue
through the IP hooks simulated by bridge netfilter.
The resulting hook order is:
PREROUTING (bridge netfilter)
POSTROUTING (dst_output -> ip_output)
FORWARD (bridge netfilter)
POSTROUTING (bridge netfilter)
The deferred hooks used to abort the first POST_ROUTING invocation,
but since the only thing bridge netfilter actually really wants is
a new MAC address, we can avoid going through the IP stack completely
by simply calling the neighbour output function directly.

Since the introduction of the acquire_console_sem calls in
0333d83509, kexecing can cause the
kernel to deadlock:
ps3fb_shutdown()
-> unregister_framebuffer()
-> fb_notifier_call_chain(FB_EVENT_FB_UNBIND)
-> fbcon_fb_unbind()
-> unbind_con_driver()
-> bind_con_driver()
[ acquires console_sem ]
-> fbcon_deinit()
-> fbops->fb_release(newinfo, 0)
-> ps3fb_release()
-> ps3fb_sync()
[ acquires console_sem ]
This change avoids the deadlock by moving the acquire_console_sem()
out of ps3fb_sync(), and puts it into the two other callsites, leaving
ps3fb_release() to call ps3fb_sync() without the console semaphore.
[Geert]
- Corrected call sequence above
- ps3fb_release() may be called with and without console_sem held. This is an
inconsistency that should be fixed at the fb level, but for now, try to
acquire console_sem in ps3fb_release().
I think it's safer to let ps3fb_release() try to acquire console_sem and
not refresh the screen if it fails, than to call ps3fb_sync() without
holding console_sem, as ps3fb_par may be modified at the same time, causing
crashes or lockups.
Besides, ps3fb_release() only calls ps3fb_sync() to refresh the screen
when display flipping is disabled, which is an uncommon case (except during
shutdown/kexec).

The bug causes corruptions of data read from flash.
The original code performs cache invalidation from "adr" to "adr + len"
in do_write_buffer(). Since len and adr could be updated in the code
before invalidation - it causes improper setting of cache invalidation

ACPI and APM used "pm_active" to guarantee that
they would not be simultaneously active.
But pm_active was recently moved under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY,
so that without CONFIG_PM_LEGACY, pm_active became a NOP --
allowing ACPI and APM to both be simultaneously enabled.
This caused unpredictable results, including boot hangs.
Further, the code under CONFIG_PM_LEGACY is scheduled
for removal.
So replace pm_active with pm_flags.
pm_flags depends only on CONFIG_PM,
which is present for both CONFIG_APM and CONFIG_ACPI.

I noticed that the commit f197465384
(MIPS Tech: Get rid of volatile in core code) broke the software
reset functionality for MIPS Malta boards in big-endian mode.
According to the MIPS Malta board user's manual, writing the magic
32-bit GORESET value into the SOFTRES register initiates board soft
reset. My experimentation has shown that the endianness of the GORESET
integer should thereby be the same as the endianness, which has been
set for the CPU itself. The writew() function used to write the magic
value in the code introduced by the commit mentioned above, however,
swaps bytes for big-endian kernels and transfers 16 bits instead of 32.
The patch below replaces the writew() function by the __raw_writel()
routine, which leaves the byte order intact and transfers the whole
MIPS machine word. Trivial code cleanup (replacing spaces by a tab
and cutting oversized lines to make checkpatch.pl happy) is also
included.
The patch was tested using a Malta evaluation board running in both
BE and LE modes. For both modes, software reset was fully functional
after the change.
P.S. I suspect that the same commit broke the "standby" functionality
for MIPS Atlas boards. However, I did not touch the Atlas code as I
don't have such board at my disposal and also because the linux-mips.org
Web site claims that Atlas support is scheduled for removal.
