1733310bb7 MPSC serial driver tx locking
The MPSC serial driver assumes that interrupt is always on to pick up the
DMA transmit ops that aren't submitted while the DMA engine is active.
However when irqs are off for a period of time such as operations under
kernel crash dump console messages do not show up due to additional DMA ops
are being dropped.  This makes console writes to process through all the tx
DMAs queued up before submitting a new request.

Also, the current locking mechanism does not protect the hardware registers
and ring buffer when a printk is done during the serial write operations.
The additional per port transmit lock provides a finer granular locking and
protects registers being clobbered while printks are nested within UART
writes.

abb4a23907 serial: define FIXED_PORT flag for serial_core
At present, the serial core always allows setserial in userspace to change the
port address, irq and base clock of any serial port.  That makes sense for
legacy ISA ports, but not for (say) embedded ns16550 compatible serial ports
at peculiar addresses.  In these cases, the kernel code configuring the ports
must know exactly where they are, and their clocking arrangements (which can
be unusual on embedded boards).  It doesn't make sense for userspace to change
these settings.

Therefore, this patch defines a UPF_FIXED_PORT flag for the uart_port
structure.  If this flag is set when the serial port is configured, any
attempts to alter the port's type, io address, irq or base clock with
setserial are ignored.

In addition this patch uses the new flag for on-chip serial ports probed in
arch/powerpc/kernel/legacy_serial.c, and for other hard-wired serial ports
probed by drivers/serial/of_serial.c.

beab697ab4 serial driver PMC MSP71xx
Serial driver patch for the PMC-Sierra MSP71xx devices.

There are three different fixes:

1 Fix for DesignWare APB THRE errata: In brief, this is a non-standard
  16550 in that the THRE interrupt will not re-assert itself simply by
  disabling and re-enabling the THRI bit in the IER, it is only re-enabled
  if a character is actually sent out.

  It appears that the "8250-uart-backup-timer.patch" in the "mm" tree
  also fixes it so we have dropped our initial workaround.  This patch now
  needs to be applied on top of that "mm" patch.

2 Fix for Busy Detect on LCR write: The DesignWare APB UART has a feature
  which causes a new Busy Detect interrupt to be generated if it's busy
  when the LCR is written.  This fix saves the value of the LCR and
  rewrites it after clearing the interrupt.

3 Workaround for interrupt/data concurrency issue: The SoC needs to
  ensure that writes that can cause interrupts to be cleared reach the UART
  before returning from the ISR.  This fix reads a non-destructive register
  on the UART so the read transaction completion ensures the previously
  queued write transaction has also completed.

6179b5562d add new_id to PCMCIA drivers
PCI drivers have the new_id file in sysfs which allows new IDs to be added
at runtime.  The advantage is to avoid re-compilation of a driver that
works for a new device, but it's ID table doesn't contain the new device.
This mechanism is only meant for testing, after the driver has been tested
successfully, the ID should be added in source code so that new revisions
of the kernel automatically detect the device.

The implementation follows the PCI implementation. The interface is documented
in Documentation/pcmcia/driver.txt. Computations should be done in userspace,
so the sysfs string contains the raw structure members for matching.

e3ebadd95c Revert "[PATCH] x86: __pa and __pa_symbol address space separation"
This was broken.  It adds complexity, for no good reason.  Rather than
separate __pa() and __pa_symbol(), we should deprecate __pa_symbol(),
and preferably __pa() too - and just use "virt_to_phys()" instead, which
is more readable and has nicer semantics.

However, right now, just undo the separation, and make __pa_symbol() be
the exact same as __pa().  That fixes the bugs this patch introduced,
and we can do the fairly obvious cleanups later.

Do the new __phys_addr() function (which is now the actual workhorse for
the unified __pa()/__pa_symbol()) as a real external function, that way
all the potential issues with compile/link-time optimizations of
constant symbol addresses go away, and we can also, if we choose to, add
more sanity-checking of the argument.

d25a9d66e0 [POWERPC] Fix some missing build dependencies in arch/powerpc/boot
This patch fixes a couple of missing dependencies in
arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile.  First, it ensures that the zlib.h header
is linked in before attempting to build gunzip_util.o, as it is,
building gunzip_util.o usually works, but not always depending on make
order.

Second, it makes the final images which are built using a dts
dependent on that dts, so the image will be correctly rebuilt if the
dts changes.  This in turn requires fixing the definition of the dts
variable.  CONFIG_DEVICE_TREE from Kconfig will have quotes around it,
which don't matter when passing the variable to a shell, but which
need to be removed when incorporating it into a filename for make's
use.

c04cb34725 [TG3]: Eliminate spurious interrupts.
Spurious interrupts are often encountered especially on systems
using the 8259 PIC mode.  This is because the I/O write to deassert
the interrupt is posted and won't get to the chip immediately.  As
a result, the IRQ may remain asserted after the IRQ handler exits,
causing spurious interrupts.

Flush the interrupt mailbox in non-MSI handlers to de-assert the
IRQ immediately.  This seems to be the most straight forward approach
after discussion with Jeff Garzik and David Miller.

861fe90656 [SPARC64]: SUN4U PCI-E controller support.
Some minor refactoring in the generic code was necessary for
this:

1) This controller requires 8-byte access to the interrupt map
   and clear register.  They are 64-bits on all the other
   SBUS and PCI controllers anyways, so this was easy to cure.

2) The IMAP register has a different layout and some bits that we
   need to preserve, so use a read/modify/write when making
   changes to the IMAP register in generic code.

3) Flushing the entire IOMMU TLB is best done with a single write
   to a register on this PCI controller, add a iommu->iommu_flushinv
   for this.

Still lacks MSI support, that will come later.

8d1cc86a62 IPoIB: Convert to NAPI
Convert the IP-over-InfiniBand network device driver over to using
NAPI to handle completions for the main CQ.  This covers all receives
as well as datagram mode sends; send completions for connected mode
connections are still handled from interrupt context.

ed23a72778 IB: Return "maybe missed event" hint from ib_req_notify_cq()
The semantics defined by the InfiniBand specification say that
completion events are only generated when a completions is added to a
completion queue (CQ) after completion notification is requested.  In
other words, this means that the following race is possible:

	while (CQ is not empty)
		ib_poll_cq(CQ);
	// new completion is added after while loop is exited
	ib_req_notify_cq(CQ);
	// no event is generated for the existing completion

To close this race, the IB spec recommends doing another poll of the
CQ after requesting notification.

However, it is not always possible to arrange code this way (for
example, we have found that NAPI for IPoIB cannot poll after
requesting notification).  Also, some hardware (eg Mellanox HCAs)
actually will generate an event for completions added before the call
to ib_req_notify_cq() -- which is allowed by the spec, since there's
no way for any upper-layer consumer to know exactly when a completion
was really added -- so the extra poll of the CQ is just a waste.

Motivated by this, we add a new flag "IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS" for
ib_req_notify_cq() so that it can return a hint about whether the a
completion may have been added before the request for notification.
The return value of ib_req_notify_cq() is extended so:

	 < 0	means an error occurred while requesting notification
	== 0	means notification was requested successfully, and if
		IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS was passed in, then no
		events were missed and it is safe to wait for another
		event.
	 > 0	is only returned if IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS was
		passed in.  It means that the consumer must poll the
		CQ again to make sure it is empty to avoid the race
		described above.

We add a flag to enable this behavior rather than turning it on
unconditionally, because checking for missed events may incur
significant overhead for some low-level drivers, and consumers that
don't care about the results of this test shouldn't be forced to pay
for the test.

f4fd0b224d IB: Add CQ comp_vector support
Add a num_comp_vectors member to struct ib_device and extend
ib_create_cq() to pass in a comp_vector parameter -- this parallels
the userspace libibverbs API.  Update all hardware drivers to set
num_comp_vectors to 1 and have all ULPs pass 0 for the comp_vector
value.  Pass the value of num_comp_vectors to userspace rather than
hard-coding a value of 1.

We want multiple CQ event vector support (via MSI-X or similar for
adapters that can generate multiple interrupts), but it's not clear
how many vectors we want, or how we want to deal with policy issues
such as how to decide which vector to use or how to set up interrupt
affinity.  This patch is useful for experimenting, since no core
changes will be necessary when updating a driver to support multiple
vectors, and we know that we want to make at least these changes
anyway.
