Oops. Part of the hugetlb private reservation code was not fully
converted to use hstates.
When a huge page must be unmapped from VMAs due to a failed COW,
HPAGE_SIZE is used in the call to unmap_hugepage_range() regardless of
the page size being used. This works if the VMA is using the default
huge page size. Otherwise we might unmap too much, too little, or
trigger a BUG_ON. Rare but serious -- fix it.

This fixes a TX hang reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer.
When an architecutre cannot provide a fully functional
64-bit atomic readq/writeq, the driver must implement
it's own. This is because only the driver can say whether
doing something like using two 32-bit reads to implement
the full 64-bit read will actually work properly.
In particular one of the issues is whether the top 32-bits
or the bottom 32-bits of the 64-bit register should be read
first. There could be side effects, and in fact that is
exactly the problem here.
The TX_CS register has counters in the upper 32-bits and
state bits in the lower 32-bits. A read clears the state
bits.
We would read the counter half before the state bit half.
That first read would clear the state bits, and then the
driver thinks that no interrupts are pending because the
interrupt indication state bits are seen clear every time.
Fix this by reading the bottom half before the upper half.

My previous patch to make CONFIG_NUMA on x86_32 depend on BROKEN
turned out to be unnecessary, after all, since the source of the
hibernation vs CONFIG_NUMA problem turned out to be the fact that
we didn't take the NUMA KVA remapping into account in the
hibernation code.

Impact: fix crash during hibernation on 32-bit NUMA
The NUMA code on x86_32 creates special memory mapping that allows
each node's pgdat to be located in this node's memory. For this
purpose it allocates a memory area at the end of each node's memory
and maps this area so that it is accessible with virtual addresses
belonging to low memory. As a result, if there is high memory,
these NUMA-allocated areas are physically located in high memory,
although they are mapped to low memory addresses.
Our hibernation code does not take that into account and for this
reason hibernation fails on all x86_32 systems with CONFIG_NUMA=y and
with high memory present. Fix this by adding a special mapping for
the NUMA-allocated memory areas to the temporary page tables created
during the last phase of resume.

Impact: remove spinlocks and irq disabling in function return tracer.
I've tried to figure out all of the race condition that could happen
when the tracer pushes or pops a return address trace to/from the
current thread_info.
Theory:
_ One thread can only execute on one cpu at a time. So this code
doesn't need to be SMP-safe. Just drop the spinlock.
_ The only race could happen between the current thread and an
interrupt. If an interrupt is raised, it will increase the index of
the return stack storage and then execute until the end of the
tracing to finally free the index it used. We don't need to disable
irqs.
This is theorical. In practice, I've tested it with a two-core SMP and
had no problem at all. Perhaps -tip testing could confirm it.

Like mac80211 did, this driver makes 'clever' use of skb->cb to pass
information along with an skb as it is requeued from the virtual device
to the physical wireless device. Unfortunately, that trick no longer
works...
Unlike mac80211, code complexity and driver apathy makes this hack
the best option we have in the short run. Hopefully someone will
eventually be motivated to code a proper fix before all the effected
hardware dies.

Fix a crash in path_rec_completion() during an SM up/down loop. If
more than one path record request is issued, the first completion
releases path->done, allowing ipoib_flush_paths() to free the path,
and thus corrupting it for the second completion.
Commit ee1e2c82 ("IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM
change events") added the field path->valid and changed the test "if
(!path)" to "if (!path || !path->valid)". This change made it
possible for a path with an outstanding query to pass the test and

When the iw_cxgb3 module's cxgb3_client "add" func gets called by the
cxgb3 module, the iwarp driver ends up calling the ethtool ops
get_drvinfo function in cxgb3 to get the fw version and other info.
Currently the iwarp driver grabs the rtnl lock around this down call
to serialize. As of 2.6.27 or so, things changed such that the rtnl
lock is held around the call to the netdev driver open function. Also
the cxgb3_client "add" function doesn't get called if the device is
down.
So, if you load cxgb3, then load iw_cxgb3, then ifconfig up the
device, the iw_cxgb3 add func gets called with the rtnl_lock held. If
you load cxgb3, ifconfig up the device, then load iw_cxgb3, the add
func gets called without the rtnl_lock held. The former causes the
deadlock, the latter does not.
In addition, there are iw_cxgb3 sysfs handlers that also can call down
into cxgb3 to gather the fw and hw versions. These can be called
concurrently on different processors and at any time. Thus we need to
push this serialization down in the cxgb3 driver get_drvinfo func.
The fix is to remove rtnl lock usage, and use a per-device lock in cxgb3.

As you can see by the above, there's a bit of work to do in rethinking
the use of some unlikelys and likelys. Note: the unlikely case had 71 hits
that were more than 25%.
Note: After submitting my first version of this patch, Andrew Morton
showed me a version written by Daniel Walker, where I picked up
the following ideas from:
1) Using __builtin_constant_p to avoid profiling fixed values.
2) Using __FILE__ instead of instruction pointers.
3) Using the preprocessor to stop all profiling of likely
annotations from vsyscall_64.c.
Thanks to Andrew Morton, Arjan van de Ven, Theodore Tso and Ingo Molnar
for their feed back on this patch.
(*) Not ever unlikely is recorded, those that are used by vsyscalls
(a few of them) had to have profiling disabled.
