That call escaped the name space cleanup. Fix it up.

We really want to call there. The chip might have changed since the
irq was setup initially. So let the core code and the chip decide what
to do. The status is just an unreliable snapshot.

The xlate() function returns 0 or a negative error code. Returning the
error code blindly will be seen as an huge irq number by the calling
function because irq_create_of_mapping() returns an unsigned value.

Return 0 (NO_IRQ) as required.

After "x86-64, mm: Put early page table high" already existing kernel
page table pages can be mapped using early_ioremap too so we need to
update mask_rw_pte to make sure these pages are still mapped RO.
The reason why we have to do that is explain by the commit message of
fef5ba79:

"Xen requires that all pages containing pagetable entries to be mapped
read-only.  If pages used for the initial pagetable are already mapped
then we can change the mapping to RO.  However, if they are initially
unmapped, we need to make sure that when they are later mapped, they
are also mapped RO.

..SNIP..

the pagetable setup code early_ioremaps the pages to write their
entries, so we must make sure that mappings created in the early_ioremap
fixmap area are mapped RW.  (Those mappings are removed before the pages
are presented to Xen as pagetable pages.)"

We accomplish all this in mask_rw_pte by mapping RO all the pages mapped
using early_ioremap apart from the last one that has been allocated
because it is not a page table page yet (it has not been hooked into the
page tables yet).

Do not set max_pfn_mapped to the end of the initial memory mappings,
that also contain pages that don't belong in pfn space (like the mfn
list).

Set max_pfn_mapped to the last real pfn mapped in the initial memory
mappings that is the pfn backing _end.

Now cleanup_highmap actually is in two steps: one is early in head64.c
and only clears above _end; a second one is in init_memory_mapping() and
tries to clean from _brk_end to _end.
It should check if those boundaries are PMD_SIZE aligned but currently
does not.
Also init_memory_mapping() is called several times for numa or memory
hotplug, so we really should not handle initial kernel mappings there.

This patch moves cleanup_highmap() down after _brk_end is settled so
we can do everything in one step.
Also we honor max_pfn_mapped in the implementation of cleanup_highmap.

According to intel CPU manual, every time PGD entry is changed in i386 PAE
mode, we need do a full TLB flush. Current code follows this and there is
comment for this too in the code.

But current code misses the multi-threaded case. A changed page table
might be used by several CPUs, every such CPU should flush TLB. Usually
this isn't a problem, because we prepopulate all PGD entries at process
fork. But when the process does munmap and follows new mmap, this issue
will be triggered.

When it happens, some CPUs keep doing page faults:

Current stack dump code scans entire stack and check each entry
contains a pointer to kernel code. If CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=y it
could mark whether the pointer is valid or not based on value of
the frame pointer. Invalid entries could be preceded by '?' sign.

However this was not going to happen because scan start point
was always higher than the frame pointer so that they could not
meet.

Commit 9c0729dc ("x86: Eliminate bp argument from the stack
tracing routines") delayed bp acquisition point, so the bp was
read in lower frame, thus all of the entries were marked
invalid.

This patch fixes this by reverting above commit while retaining
stack_frame() helper as suggested by Frederic Weisbecker.

End result looks like below:

iprune_sem is continously giving us lockdep warnings because we do take it in
read mode in the reclaim path, but we're also doing non-NOFS allocations under
it taken in write mode.

Taking a bit deeper look at it I think it's fixable quite trivially:

 - for invalidate_inodes we do not need iprune_sem at all.  We have an active
   reference on the superblock, so the filesystem is not going away until it
   has finished.
 - for evict_inodes we do need it, to make sure prune_icache has done it's
   work before we tear down the superblock.  But there is no reason to
   hold it over the actual reclaim operation - it's enough to cycle through
   it after the actual reclaim to make sure we wait for any pending
   prune_icache to complete.  We just have to remove the WARN_ON for
   otherwise busy inodes as they can actually happen now.

Support for Always Running APIC timer (ARAT) was introduced in
commit db954b58. This feature
allows us to avoid switching timers from LAPIC to something else
(e.g. HPET) and go into timer broadcasts when entering deep
C-states.

AMD processors don't provide a CPUID bit for that feature but
they also keep APIC timers running in deep C-states (except for
cases when the processor is affected by erratum 400). Therefore
we should set ARAT feature bit on AMD CPUs.

The new vfs locking scheme introduced in 2.6.38 breaks NFS sillyrename
because the latter relies on being able to determine the parent
directory of the dentry in the ->iput() callback in order to send the
appropriate unlink rpc call.

Looking at the code that cares about races with dput(), there doesn't
seem to be anything that specifically uses d_parent as a test for
whether or not there is a race:
  - __d_lookup_rcu(), __d_lookup() all test for d_hashed() after d_parent
  - shrink_dcache_for_umount() is safe since nothing else can rearrange
    the dentries in that super block.
  - have_submount(), select_parent() and d_genocide() can test for a
    deletion if we set the DCACHE_DISCONNECTED flag when the dentry
    is removed from the parent's d_subdirs list.

	create helper function for duplicated functionality" )

This creates a helper function for he "try to ascend into the parent
directory" case, which was written out in triplicate before.  With all
the locking and subtle sequence number stuff, we really don't want to
duplicate that kind of code.
