d35c7b0e54 unified (weak) sys_pipe implementation
This replaces the duplicated arch-specific versions of "sys_pipe()" with
one unified implementation.  This removes almost 250 lines of duplicated
code.

It's marked __weak, so that *if* an architecture wants to override the
default implementation it can do so by simply having its own replacement
version, since many architectures use alternate calling conventions for
the 'pipe()' system call for legacy reasons (ie traditional UNIX
implementations often return the two file descriptors in registers)

I still haven't changed the cris version even though Linus says the BKL
isn't needed.  The arch maintainer can easily do it if there are really
no obstacles.

01d3a5e7fa atmel_lcdfb: don't initialize a pre-allocated framebuffer
If the user specified a fixed framebuffer address on the command line, it may
have been initialized already with a splash image or something, so we
shouldn't clear it.

Therefore, we should only initialize the framebuffer if we allocated it
ourselves.  This patch also updates the AVR32 setup code to clear the
framebuffer if it allocated it itself, i.e.  the user didn't provide a fixed
address or the reservation failed.

I've updated the at91 platform code as well so that it initializes the
framebuffer if it is located in SRAM, but I haven't tested that it actually
works.

e723ff666a avr32: Generic clockevents support
This combines three patches from David Brownell:
  * avr32: tclib support
  * avr32: simplify clocksources
  * avr32: Turn count/compare into a oneshot clockevent device

Register both TC blocks (instead of just the first one) so that
the AT32/AT91 tclib code will pick them up (instead of just the
avr32-only PIT-style clocksource).

Rename the first one and its resources appropriately.

More cleanups to the cycle counter clocksource code

 - Disable all the weak symbol magic; remove the AVR32-only TCB-based
   clocksource code (source and header).

 - Mark the __init code properly.

 - Don't forget to report IRQF_TIMER.

 - Make the system work properly with this clocksource, by preventing
   use of the CPU "idle" sleep state in the idle loop when it's used.

Package the avr32 count/compare timekeeping support as a oneshot
clockevent device, so it supports NO_HZ and high res timers.
This means it also supports plugging in other clockevent devices
and clocksources.

62c6df62f9 avr32: start clocksource cleanup
Start cleaning up the AVR32 clocksource mess, starting with the cycle
counter clocksource:  remove unneeded pseudo-RTC (just inline that
call to mktime) and associated build warning, and unused sysdev.

Add comment about the problem using the cycle counter register,
and adjust the clocksource rating accordingly.  Later patches can
make this usable again (by disabling use of the idle state and
providing a proper clocksource without the weak binding hacks)
and move towards TCB-based clockevent support (including high
resolution timers) that's shared between AT91 and AVR32.

a2a3952561 avr32: Fix bug in early resource allocation code
add_reserved_region() tries to keep the resource list sorted, so when
looking for a place to insert the new resource, it may break out
before the last entry.

When this happens, the list is broken in two because the sibling field
of the new entry doesn't point to the next resource. Fix it by
updating the new resource's sibling field appropriately.

325d6f5593 avr32: Fix OCD refcounting bug
Iff the parent has TIF_DEBUG set, _and_ clone_flags includes
CLONE_PTRACE we should set the TIF_DEBUG flag for the child and
increment the ocd refcount. Otherwise, the TIF_DEBUG flag must be
unset.

Currently, the child inherits TIF_DEBUG from the parent before
copy_thread is called, so TIF_DEBUG may be already be set before we
determine whether the child is supposed to inherit debugging
capabilities from the parent or not. This means that ocd_enable()
won't increment the refcount, because TIF_DEBUG is already set, and
that TIF_DEBUG will be set for processes that aren't being debugged.

This leads to a refcounting asymmetry, which may show up as

------------[ cut here ]------------
Badness at arch/avr32/kernel/ocd.c:73
PC is at ocd_disable+0x34/0x60
LR is at put_lock_stats+0xa/0x20

as reported by David Brownell. Happens when strace'ing a process that
forks a new child process, e.g. "strace mount -tjffs2 mtd1 /mnt", and
subsequently killing the child process (e.g. "umount /mnt".)

72a7fe3967 Introduce flags for reserve_bootmem()
This patchset adds a flags variable to reserve_bootmem() and uses the
BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE flag in crashkernel reservation code to detect collisions
between crashkernel area and already used memory.

This patch:

Change the reserve_bootmem() function to accept a new flag BOOTMEM_EXCLUSIVE.
If that flag is set, the function returns with -EBUSY if the memory already
has been reserved in the past.  This is to avoid conflicts.

Because that code runs before SMP initialisation, there's no race condition
inside reserve_bootmem_core().

13b54a5052 [AVR32] Enable debugging only when needed
Keep track of processes being debugged (including the kernel itself)
and turn the OCD system on and off as appropriate. Since enabling
debugging turns off some optimizations in the CPU core, this fixes the
issue that enabling KProbes support or simply running a program under
gdbserver will reduce system performance significantly until the next
reboot.

The CPU performance will still be reduced for all processes while a
process is being debugged, but this is a lot better than reducing the
performance forever.

2507bc1338 [AVR32] Follow the rules when dealing with the OCD system
The current debug trap handling code does a number of things that are
illegal according to the AVR32 Architecture manual. Most importantly,
it may try to schedule from Debug Mode, thus clearing the D bit, which
can lead to "undefined behaviour".

It seems like this works in most cases, but several people have
observed somewhat unstable behaviour when debugging programs,
including soft lockups. So there's definitely something which is not
right with the existing code.

The new code will never schedule from Debug mode, it will always exit
Debug mode with a "retd" instruction, and if something not running in
Debug mode needs to do something debug-related (like doing a single
step), it will enter debug mode through a "breakpoint" instruction.
The monitor code will then return directly to user space, bypassing
its own saved registers if necessary (since we don't actually care
about the trapped context, only the one that came before.)

This adds three instructions to the common exception handling code,
including one branch. It does not touch super-hot paths like the TLB
miss handler.

8dfe8f29cd [AVR32] Clean up OCD register usage
Generate a new set of OCD register definitions in asm/ocd.h and rename
__mfdr() and __mtdr() to ocd_read() and ocd_write() respectively.

The bitfield definitions are a lot more complete now, and they are
entirely based on bit numbers, not masks. This is because OCD
registers are frequently accessed from assembly code, where bit
numbers are a lot more useful (can be fed directly to sbr, bfins,
etc.)

Bitfields that consist of more than one bit have two definitions:
_START, which indicates the number of the first bit, and _SIZE, which
indicates the number of bits. These directly correspond to the
parameters taken by the bfextu, bfexts and bfins instructions.

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.

As explained on:
http://www.avrfreaks.net/index.php?nameÿphpBB2&fileÿewtopic&tS307
If the current process is preempted before it can copy RAR_SUP and
RSR_SUP both register are lost and the process will segfault as soon
as it return from the syscall since the return adress will be
corrupted.

This patch disable IRQ as soon as we enter the syscall path and
reenable them when the copy is done.

In the interrupt handlers, check if we are interrupting the srrf
instruction, if so disable interrupts and return. The interrupt
handler will be re-called immediatly when the interrupts are
reenabled.

After some stressing workload:
 - find / > /dev/null in loop
 - top (in ssh)
 - ping -f avr32

The segfaults are not seen anymore.

The reason why we need to align the .text section is because the

enough alignment of EVBA that this OR operation works as an ADD.

Currently, the last interrupt handler is not nearly a full page away

aa15f63790 [AVR32] Fix build error in parse_tag_rdimg()
This code is inside an #ifdef with a misspelled config symbol, so it
hasn't been used for a long time. Fix it before fixing the config
symbol to keep bisection working.

f284ce7269 PTRACE_POKEDATA consolidation
Identical implementations of PTRACE_POKEDATA go into generic_ptrace_pokedata()
function.

AFAICS, fix bug on xtensa where successful PTRACE_POKEDATA will nevertheless
return EPERM.

bcdcd8e725 Report that kernel is tainted if there was an OOPS
If the kernel OOPSed or BUGed then it probably should be considered as
tainted.  Thus, all subsequent OOPSes and SysRq dumps will report the
tainted kernel.  This saves a lot of time explaining oddities in the
calltraces.

608e261968 generic bug: use show_regs() instead of dump_stack()
The current generic bug implementation has a call to dump_stack() in case a
WARN_ON(whatever) gets hit.  Since report_bug(), which calls dump_stack(),
gets called from an exception handler we can do better: just pass the
pt_regs structure to report_bug() and pass it to show_regs() in case of a
warning.  This will give more debug informations like register contents,
etc...  In addition this avoids some pointless lines that dump_stack()
emits, since it includes a stack backtrace of the exception handler which
is of no interest in case of a warning.  E.g.  on s390 the following lines
are currently always present in a stack backtrace if dump_stack() gets
called from report_bug():

 [<000000000001517a>] show_trace+0x92/0xe8)
