6016a363f6 of: unify phandle name in struct device_node
In struct device_node, the phandle is named 'linux_phandle' for PowerPC
and MicroBlaze, and 'node' for SPARC.  There is no good reason for the
difference, it is just an artifact of the code diverging over a couple
of years.  This patch renames both to simply .phandle.

Note: the .node also existed in PowerPC/MicroBlaze, but the only user
seems to be arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/pfunc_core.c.  It doesn't
look like the assignment between .linux_phandle and .node is
significantly different enough to warrant the separate code paths
unless ibm,phandle properties actually appear in Apple device trees.

I think it is safe to eliminate the old .node property and use
phandle everywhere.

0f0b56c3f2 of/flattree: eliminate cell_t typedef

2be09cb993 of: remove special case definition of of_read_ulong()
Special case of of_read_ulong() was defined for PPC32 to toss away
all but the last 32 bits when a large number value was read, and the
'normal' version for ppc64 just #defined of_read_ulong to of_read_number
which causes compiler warnings on MicroBlaze and other 32 bit
architectures because it returns a u64 instead of a ulong.

This patch fixes the problem by defining a common implementation of
of_read_ulong() that works everywhere.

5854d9c8d1 Fix handling of the HP/Acer 'DMAR at zero' BIOS error for machines with <4GiB RAM.
Commit 86cf898e1d ("intel-iommu: Check for
'DMAR at zero' BIOS error earlier.") was supposed to work by pretending
not to detect an IOMMU if it was actually being reported by the BIOS at
physical address zero.

However, the intel_iommu_init() function is called unconditionally, as
are the corresponding functions for other IOMMU hardware.

So the patch only worked if you have RAM above the 4GiB boundary. It
caused swiotlb to be initialised when no IOMMU was detected during early
boot, and thus the later IOMMU init would refuse to run.

But if you have less RAM than that, swiotlb wouldn't get set up and the
IOMMU _would_ still end up being initialised, even though we never
claimed to detect it.

This patch also sets the dmar_disabled flag when the error is detected
during the initial detection phase -- so that the later call to
intel_iommu_init() will return without doing anything, regardless of
whether swiotlb is used or not.

a414f01ac2 strcmp: fix overflow and possibly signedness error
Doing the strcmp return value as

	signed char __res = *cs - *ct;

is wrong for two reasons.  The subtraction can overflow because __res
doesn't use a type big enough.  Moreover the compared bytes should be
interpreted as unsigned char as specified by POSIX.

The same problem is fixed in strncmp.

4acc5a8eb4 ibm_newemac: Fix EMACx_TRTR[TRT] bit shifts
The TRT bit shifts were reversed for EMAC4 and non-EMAC4 during the
port from ibm_emac to ibm_newemac. This patch corrects that error.

90e41bac10 [CPUFREQ] Fix stale cpufreq_cpu_governor pointer
Dave,

Attached is an update of my patch against the cpufreq fixes branch.

Before applying the patch I compiled and booted the tree to see if the panic
was still there -- to my surprise it was not.  This is because of the conversion
of cpufreq_cpu_governor to a char[].

While the panic is kaput, the problem of stale data continues and my patch is
still valid.  It is possible to end up with the wrong governor after hotplug
events because CPUFREQ_DEFAULT_GOVERNOR is statically linked to a default,
while the cpu siblings may have had a different governor assigned by a user.

ie) the patch is still needed in order to keep the governors assigned
properly when hotplugging devices

54c9a35d9f [CPUFREQ] Resolve time unit thinko in ondemand/conservative govs
ondemand and conservative governors are messing up time units in the
code path where NO_HZ is not enabled and ignore_nice is set. The walltime
idletime stored is in jiffies and nice time calculation is happening in
microseconds.

The problem was reported and diagnosed by Alexander here.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125752550404513&w=2

The patch below fixes this thinko.

8dca15e408 [CPUFREQ] speedstep-ich: fix error caused by 394122ab14
"[CPUFREQ] cpumask: avoid playing with cpus_allowed in speedstep-ich.c"
changed the code to mistakenly pass the current cpu as the "processor"
argument of speedstep_get_frequency(), whereas it should be the type of
the processor.

e77b89f13a [CPUFREQ] Fix use after free on governor restore
Currently on governer backup/restore path we storing governor's pointer.
This is wrong because one may unload governor's module after cpu goes
offline. As result use-after-free will take place on restored cpu.
It is not easy to exploit this bug, but still we have to close this
issue ASAP. Issue was introduced by following commit
084f349394

##TESTCASE##
#!/bin/sh -x
modprobe acpi_cpufreq
# Any non default governor, in may case it is "ondemand"
modprobe cpufreq_ondemand
echo ondemand > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
rmmod acpi_cpufreq
rmmod cpufreq_ondemand

293afe44d7 [CPUFREQ] acpi-cpufreq: blacklist Intel 0f68: Fix HT detection and put in notification message
Removing the SMT/HT check, since the Errata doesn't mention
Hyper-Threading.

Adding in a printk, so that the user knows why acpi-cpufreq refuses to
load.  Also, once system is blacklisted, don't repeat checks to see if
blacklisted.  This also causes the message to only be printed once,
rather than for each CPU.
