0727702a3a [POWERPC] ibmebus: change probe/remove interface from using loc-code to DT path
In some cases, multiple OFDT nodes might share the same location code, so
the location code is not a unique identifier for an OFDT node. Changed the
ibmebus probe/remove interface to use the DT path of the device node instead
of the location code.

The DT path must be written into probe/remove right as it would appear in
the "devspec" attribute of the ebus device: relative to the DT root, with a
leading slash and without a trailing slash. One trailing newline will not
hurt; multiple newlines will (like perl's chomp()).

Example:

 Add a device "/proc/device-tree/foo@12345678" to ibmebus like this:
    echo /foo@12345678 > /sys/bus/ibmebus/probe

 Remove the device like this:
    echo /foo@12345678 > /sys/bus/ibmebus/remove

a741e67969 [POWERPC] Make tlb flush batch use lazy MMU mode
The current tlb flush code on powerpc 64 bits has a subtle race since we
lost the page table lock due to the possible faulting in of new PTEs
after a previous one has been removed but before the corresponding hash
entry has been evicted, which can leads to all sort of fatal problems.

This patch reworks the batch code completely. It doesn't use the mmu_gather
stuff anymore. Instead, we use the lazy mmu hooks that were added by the
paravirt code. They have the nice property that the enter/leave lazy mmu
mode pair is always fully contained by the PTE lock for a given range
of PTEs. Thus we can guarantee that all batches are flushed on a given
CPU before it drops that lock.

We also generalize batching for any PTE update that require a flush.

Batching is now enabled on a CPU by arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode() and
disabled by arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode(). The code epects that this is
always contained within a PTE lock section so no preemption can happen
and no PTE insertion in that range from another CPU. When batching
is enabled on a CPU, every PTE updates that need a hash flush will
use the batch for that flush.

569975591c [POWERPC] DMA 4GB boundary protection
There are many adapters which cannot handle DMAing across any 4 GB
boundary.  For instance, the latest Emulex adapters.

This normally is not an issue as firmware gives dma-windows under
4gigs.  However, some of the new System-P boxes have dma-windows above
4gigs, and this present a problem.

During initialization of the IOMMU tables, the last entry at each 4GB
boundary is marked as used.  Thus no mappings can cross the boundary.
If a table ends at a 4GB boundary, the entry is not marked as used.

A boot option to remove this 4GB protection is given w/ protect4gb=off.
This exposes the potential issue for driver and hardware development
purposes.

6bccf755ff [POWERPC] ibmebus: dynamic addition/removal of adapters, some code cleanup
This adds two sysfs attributes to /sys/bus/ibmebus which can be used to
notify the ebus driver of added / removed ebus devices in the OF device
tree.

Echoing the device's location code (as found in the OFDT "ibm,loc-code"
property) into the "probe" attribute will notify ebus of addition of the
device and cause the appropriate device driver's probe function to be called
on the device.

Likewise, echoing the location code into the "remove" attribute will cause
the device to be removed from the system.

The writes will block until the respective operation has finished and return
an error code if the operation failed.

In addition, two minor tidbits are fixed:

- The fake root device used to provide a common parent for all ebus devices
  is now based on device instead of of_device - it had no associated devtree
  node. This saves several checks throughout the ebus driver.

- The sysfs attributes are now generated automagically by device_register()
  instead of by the ibmebus code, which saves a few compiler warnings about
  unused return codes.

I propose fixing it in the IOMMU allocation instead of making each
driver protect against it as it is more efficient, and won't require
changing every driver which has not considered this issue.

This patch checks to see if the mapping spans a 4 gig boundary, and if
it does, retries the allocation.  It tries the next allocation at the
start of the crossed 4 gig boundary.

eb6de28637 [POWERPC] Allow duplicate lmb_reserve() calls
At present calling lmb_reserve() (and hence lmb_add_region()) twice
for exactly the same memory region will cause strange behaviour.

This makes life difficult when booting from a flat device tree with
memory reserve map.  Which regions are automatically reserved by the
kernel has changed over time, so it's quite possible a newer kernel
could attempt to auto-reserve a region which is also explicitly listed
in the device tree's reserve map, leading to trouble.

This patch avoids the problem by making lmb_reserve() ignore a call to
reserve a previously reserved region.  It also removes a now redundant
test designed to avoid one specific case of the problem noted above.

At present, this patch deals only with duplicate reservations of an
identical region.  Attempting to reserve two different, but
overlapping regions will still cause problems.  I might post another
patch later dealing with this case, but I'm avoiding it now since it
is substantially more complicated to deal with, less likely to occur
and more likely to indicate a genuine bug elsewhere if it does occur.

f5f2b13129 [PATCH] msi: sanely support hardware level msi disabling
In some cases when we are not using msi we need a way to ensure that the
hardware does not have an msi capability enabled.  Currently the code has been
calling disable_msi_mode to try and achieve that.  However disable_msi_mode
has several other side effects and is only available when msi support is
compiled in so it isn't really appropriate.

Instead this patch implements pci_msi_off which disables all msi and msix
capabilities unconditionally with no additional side effects.

pci_disable_device was redundantly clearing the bus master enable flag and
clearing the msi enable bit.  A device that is not allowed to perform bus
mastering operations cannot generate intx or msi interrupt messages as those
are essentially a special case of dma, and require bus mastering.  So the call
in pci_disable_device to disable msi capabilities was redundant.

quirk_pcie_pxh also called disable_msi_mode and is updated to use pci_msi_off.

c5a69d57eb Storage class should be before const qualifier
The C99 specification states in section 6.11.5:

The placement of a storage-class specifier other than at the
beginning of the declaration specifiers in a declaration is an
obsolescent feature.

29cfe6f4fb [POWERPC] add of_get_mac_address and update fsl_soc.c to use it
Add function of_get_mac_address(), which obtains the best MAC address to use
from the device tree by checking various properties in order.  The order is:
'mac-address', then 'local-mac-address', then 'address'.  It skips properties
that contain invalid MAC addresses, which were probably not initialized
by U-Boot.

Update gfar_of_init() and fs_enet_of_init() in fsl_soc.c to call
of_get_mac_address().

0b4d414714 [PATCH] sysctl: remove insert_at_head from register_sysctl
The semantic effect of insert_at_head is that it would allow new registered
sysctl entries to override existing sysctl entries of the same name.  Which is
pain for caching and the proc interface never implemented.

I have done an audit and discovered that none of the current users of
register_sysctl care as (excpet for directories) they do not register
duplicate sysctl entries.

So this patch simply removes the support for overriding existing entries in
the sys_sysctl interface since no one uses it or cares and it makes future
enhancments harder.
