b460cbc581 pid namespaces: define is_global_init() and is_container_init()
is_init() is an ambiguous name for the pid==1 check.  Split it into
is_global_init() and is_container_init().

A cgroup init has it's tsk->pid == 1.

A global init also has it's tsk->pid == 1 and it's active pid namespace
is the init_pid_ns.  But rather than check the active pid namespace,
compare the task structure with 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper', which is
initialized during boot to the /sbin/init process and never changes.

Changelog:

	2.6.22-rc4-mm2-pidns1:
	- Use 'init_pid_ns.child_reaper' to determine if a given task is the
	  global init (/sbin/init) process. This would improve performance
	  and remove dependence on the task_pid().

	2.6.21-mm2-pidns2:

	- [Sukadev Bhattiprolu] Changed is_container_init() calls in {powerpc,
	  ppc,avr32}/traps.c for the _exception() call to is_global_init().
	  This way, we kill only the cgroup if the cgroup's init has a
	  bug rather than force a kernel panic.

622a9edd91 Remove dma_cache_(wback|inv|wback_inv) functions
dma_cache_(wback|inv|wback_inv) were the earliest attempt on a generalized
cache managment API for I/O purposes.  Originally it was basically the raw
MIPS low level cache API exported to the entire world.  The API has
suffered from a lack of documentation, was not very widely used unlike it's
more modern brothers and can easily be replaced by dma_cache_sync.  So
remove it rsp.  turn the surviving bits back into an arch private API, as
discussed on linux-arch.

dcca2bde4f During VM oom condition, kill all threads in process group
We have had complaints where a threaded application is left in a bad state
after one of it's threads is killed when we hit a VM: out_of_memory
condition.

Killing just one of the process threads can leave the application in a bad
state, whereas killing the entire process group would allow for the
application to restart, or be otherwise handled, and makes it very obvious
that something has gone wrong.

This change allows the entire process group to be taken down, rather
than just the one thread.

83c54070ee mm: fault feedback #2
This patch completes Linus's wish that the fault return codes be made into
bit flags, which I agree makes everything nicer.  This requires requires
all handle_mm_fault callers to be modified (possibly the modifications
should go further and do things like fault accounting in handle_mm_fault --
however that would be for another patch).

ab61f7d21a [AVR32] Fix bug in invalidate_dcache_region()
If (start + size) is not cacheline aligned and (start & mask) > (end &
mask), the last but one cacheline won't be invalidated as it should.
Fix this by rounding `end' down to the nearest cacheline boundary if
it gets adjusted due to misalignment.

Also flush the write buffer unconditionally -- if the dcache wrote
back a line just before we invalidated it, the dirty data may be
sitting in the write buffer waiting to corrupt our buffer later.

1eeb66a1bb move die notifier handling to common code
This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code.  Previous
various architectures had exactly the same code for it.  Note that the new
code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to
the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka
sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place)

arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to
arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's
declared and used at.  avr32 used to pass slightly less information through
this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.

5f97f7f940 [PATCH] avr32 architecture
This adds support for the Atmel AVR32 architecture as well as the AT32AP7000
CPU and the AT32STK1000 development board.

AVR32 is a new high-performance 32-bit RISC microprocessor core, designed for
cost-sensitive embedded applications, with particular emphasis on low power
consumption and high code density.  The AVR32 architecture is not binary
compatible with earlier 8-bit AVR architectures.

The AVR32 architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
AVR32 Architecture Manual, available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32000.pdf

The Atmel AT32AP7000 is the first CPU implementing the AVR32 architecture.  It
features a 7-stage pipeline, 16KB instruction and data caches and a full
Memory Management Unit.  It also comes with a large set of integrated
peripherals, many of which are shared with the AT91 ARM-based controllers from
Atmel.

Full data sheet is available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32003.pdf

while the CPU core implementation including caches and MMU is documented by
the AVR32 AP Technical Reference, available from

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/resources/prod_documents/doc32001.pdf

Information about the AT32STK1000 development board can be found at

http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/tools_card.asp?tool_id=3918

including a BSP CD image with an earlier version of this patch, development
tools (binaries and source/patches) and a root filesystem image suitable for
booting from SD card.

Alternatively, there's a preliminary "getting started" guide available at
http://avr32linux.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/GettingStarted which provides links
to the sources and patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling
environment for avr32-linux.

This patch, as well as the other patches included with the BSP and the
toolchain patches, is actively supported by Atmel Corporation.
