78646121e9 KVM: Fix interrupt unhalting a vcpu when it shouldn't
kvm_vcpu_block() unhalts vpu on an interrupt/timer without checking
if interrupt window is actually opened.

09cec75488 KVM: Timer event should not unconditionally unhalt vcpu.
Currently timer events are processed before entering guest mode. Move it
to main vcpu event loop since timer events should be processed even while
vcpu is halted.  Timer may cause interrupt/nmi to be injected and only then
vcpu will be unhalted.

c6c9fcdf0f KVM: ia64: Create inline function kvm_get_itc() to centralize ITC reading.
Move all reading of special register 'AR_ITC' into two functions, one
in the kernel and one in the VMM module. When running on SN2, base the
result on the RTC rather the system ITC, as the ITC isn't

d24d2c1cc4 KVM: ia64: fix locking order entering guest
Reorder locking as down_read() may return with local interrupts enabled,
which means we could go into vti_vcpu_run() with interrupts enabled.

This caused random crashes on the Altix as the timer interrupt tried
to read a memory mapped clock source, for which the TLB had not yet been
reinstated in the exit, before ipsr was retored.

9b8de7479d FRV: Fix the section attribute on UP DECLARE_PER_CPU()
In non-SMP mode, the variable section attribute specified by DECLARE_PER_CPU()
does not agree with that specified by DEFINE_PER_CPU().  This means that
architectures that have a small data section references relative to a base
register may throw up linkage errors due to too great a displacement between
where the base register points and the per-CPU variable.

On FRV, the .h declaration says that the variable is in the .sdata section, but
the .c definition says it's actually in the .data section.  The linker throws
up the following errors:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `release_task':
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o
kernel/exit.c:78: relocation truncated to fit: R_FRV_GPREL12 against symbol `per_cpu__process_counts' defined in .data section in kernel/built-in.o

To fix this, DECLARE_PER_CPU() should simply apply the same section attribute
as does DEFINE_PER_CPU().  However, this is made slightly more complex by
virtue of the fact that there are several variants on DEFINE, so these need to
be matched by variants on DECLARE.

05f0ecbda5 [IA64] fix allmodconfig compilation breakage.
This patch fixes the following compilation error caused by recursive
inclusion of kernel.h which defines BUILD_BUG_ON().
In this case, the case it catches will be caught by the case
CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n, so removing it would not hurt compile time check
very much. So fix the breakage by removing it.

edb91dc01a [IA64] smp_flush_tlb_mm() should only send IPI's to cpus in cpu_vm_mask
Having flush_tlb_mm->smp_flush_tlb_mm() send an IPI to every cpu
on the system is occasionally triggering spin_lock contention in
generic_smp_call_function_interrupt().

Follow x86 arch's lead and only sends IPIs to the cpus in mm->cpu_vm_mask.

Experiments with this change have shown significant improvement in this
contention issue.

Setting ->owner as done currently (pde->owner = THIS_MODULE) is racy
as correctly noted at bug #12454. Someone can lookup entry with NULL
->owner, thus not pinning enything, and release it later resulting
in module refcount underflow.

We can keep ->owner and supply it at registration time like ->proc_fops
and ->data.

But this leaves ->owner as easy-manipulative field (just one C assignment)
and somebody will forget to unpin previous/pin current module when
switching ->owner. ->proc_fops is declared as "const" which should give
some thoughts.

->read_proc/->write_proc were just fixed to not require ->owner for
protection.

rmmod'ed directories will be empty and return "." and ".." -- no harm.
And directories with tricky enough readdir and lookup shouldn't be modular.
We definitely don't want such modular code.

Removing ->owner will also make PDE smaller.

So, let's nuke it.

Kudos to Jeff Layton for reminding about this, let's say, oversight.

0451fb2ebc cpumask: remove node_to_first_cpu
Everyone defines it, and only one person uses it
(arch/mips/sgi-ip27/ip27-nmi.c).  So just open code it there.

2b1c6bd77d generic compat_sys_ustat
Due to a different size of ino_t ustat needs a compat handler, but
currently only x86 and mips provide one.  Add a generic compat_sys_ustat
and switch all architectures over to it.  Instead of doing various
user copy hacks compat_sys_ustat just reimplements sys_ustat as
it's trivial.  This was suggested by Arnd Bergmann.

Found by Eric Sandeen when running xfstests/017 on ppc64, which causes
stack smashing warnings on RHEL/Fedora due to the too large amount of
data writen by the syscall.
