89240ba059 x86, fs: Fix x86 procfs stack information for threads on 64-bit
This patch fixes two issues in the procfs stack information on
x86-64 linux.

The 32 bit loader compat_do_execve did not store stack
start. (this was figured out by Alexey Dobriyan).

The stack information on a x64_64 kernel always shows 0 kbyte
stack usage, because of a missing implementation of the KSTK_ESP
macro which always returned -1.

The new implementation now returns the right value.

82d6469916 xen: mask extended topology info in cpuid
A Xen guest never needs to know about extended topology, and knowing
would just confuse it.

This patch just zeros ebx in leaf 0xb which indicates no topology info,
preventing a crash under Xen on cpus which support this leaf.

Restoring %ebp after the call to audit_syscall_exit() is not
only unnecessary (because the register didn't get clobbered),
but in the sysenter case wasn't even doing the right thing: It
loaded %ebp from a location below the top of stack (RBP <
ARGOFFSET), i.e. arbitrary kernel data got passed back to user
mode in the register.

72ed7de74e x86: crash_dump: Fix non-pae kdump kernel memory accesses
Non-PAE 32-bit dump kernels may wrap an address around 4G and
poke unwanted space. ptes there are 32-bit long, and since
pfn << PAGE_SIZE may exceed this limit, high pfn bits are
cropped and wrong address mapped by kmap_atomic_pfn in
copy_oldmem_page.

Don't allow this behavior in non-PAE kdump kernels by checking
pfns passed into copy_oldmem_page. In the case of failure,
userspace process gets EFAULT.

run, but it contains native instructions, not their paravirt
alternatives.

When sending a NMI_VECTOR IPI using the UV_HUB_IPI_INT register,
we need to ensure the delivery mode field of that register has

This makes those IPIs true NMIs, instead of flat IPIs. It

IPIs.

When renaming kernel_fpu_using to irq_fpu_usable, the semantics of the
function is changed too, from mesuring whether kernel is using FPU,
that is, the FPU is NOT available, to measuring whether FPU is usable,
that is, the FPU is available.

But the usage of irq_fpu_usable in aesni-intel_glue.c is not changed
accordingly. This patch fixes this.

93ae5012a7 x86: Don't print number of MCE banks for every CPU
The MCE initialization code explicitly says it doesn't handle
asymmetric configurations where different CPUs support different
numbers of MCE banks, and it prints a big warning in that case.

Therefore, printing the "mce: CPU supports <x> MCE banks"
message into the kernel log for every CPU is pure redundancy
that clutters the log significantly for systems with lots of
CPUs.

036ed8ba61 x86, UV: Fix information in __uv_hub_info structure
A few parts of the uv_hub_info structure are initialized
incorrectly.

 - n_val is being loaded with m_val.
 - gpa_mask is initialized with a bytes instead of an unsigned long.
 - Handle the case where none of the alias registers are used.

Lastly I converted the bau over to using the uv_hub_info->m_val
which is the correct value.

Without this patch, booting a large configuration hits a
problem where the upper bits of the gnode affect the pnode
and the bau will not operate.

71999d9862 x86/paravirt: Use normal calling sequences for irq enable/disable
Bastian Blank reported a boot crash with stackprotector enabled,
and debugged it back to edx register corruption.

For historical reasons irq enable/disable/save/restore had special
calling sequences to make them more efficient.  With the more
recent introduction of higher-level and more general optimisations
this is no longer necessary so we can just use the normal PVOP_
macros.

This fixes some residual bugs in the old implementations which left
edx liable to inadvertent clobbering. Also, fix some bugs in
__PVOP_VCALLEESAVE which were revealed by actual use.

d1705c558c x86: fix kernel panic on 32 bits when profiling
Latest kernel has a kernel panic in booting on i386 machine when
profile=2 setting in cmdline.  It is due to 'sp' being incorrect in
profile_pc().

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 00000246
IP: [<c01288b6>] profile_pc+0x2a/0x48
*pde = 00000000
Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP

This differs from the original version by Alex Shi in that we use the
kernel_stack_pointer() inline already defined in <asm/ptrace.h> for
this purpose, instead of #ifdef.

9a821b2316 x86: Move pci_iommu_init to rootfs_initcall()
We want this to happen after the PCI quirks, which are now running at
the very end of the fs_initcalls.

This works around the BIOS problems which were originally addressed by
commit db8be50c43 ('USB: Work around BIOS
bugs by quiescing USB controllers earlier'), which was reverted in
commit d93a8f829f.

15b812f1d0 pci: increase alignment to make more space for hidden code
As reported in

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13940

on some system when acpi are enabled, acpi clears some BAR for some
devices without reason, and kernel will need to allocate devices for
them.  It then apparently hits some undocumented resource conflict,
resulting in non-working devices.

Try to increase alignment to get more safe range for unassigned devices.

d43c36dc6b headers: remove sched.h from interrupt.h
After m68k's task_thread_info() doesn't refer to current,
it's possible to remove sched.h from interrupt.h and not break m68k!
Many thanks to Heiko Carstens for allowing this.

c5cca146aa x86/amd-iommu: Workaround for erratum 63
There is an erratum for IOMMU hardware which documents
undefined behavior when forwarding SMI requests from
peripherals and the DTE of that peripheral has a sysmgt
value of 01b. This problem caused weird IO_PAGE_FAULTS in my
case.
This patch implements the suggested workaround for that
erratum into the AMD IOMMU driver.  The erratum is
documented with number 63.

e7ab0f7b50 Revert "x86, timers: Check for pending timers after (device) interrupts"
This reverts commit 9bcbdd9c58.

The real bug producing LatencyTop latencies has been fixed in:

  f5dc375: sched: Update the clock of runqueue select_task_rq() selected

And the commit being reverted here triggers local timer processing
from every device IRQ. If device IRQs come in at a high frequency,
this could cause a performance regression.

The commit being reverted here purely 'fixed' the reported latency
as a side effect, because CPUs were being moved out of idle more
often.
