6d5aefb8ea WorkQueue: Fix up arch-specific work items where possible
Fix up arch-specific work items where possible to use the new work_struct and
delayed_work structs.

Three places that enqueue bits of their stack and then return have been marked
with #error as this is not permitted.

7d12e780e0 IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers
Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.

The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around.  On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable.  On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.

Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions.  Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller.  A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386.  I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.

This will affect all archs.  Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

	struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

And put the old one back at the end:

	set_irq_regs(old_regs);

Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

	-	update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
	-	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
	+	update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
	+	profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

 (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely.  The regs pointer is no longer stored in
     the input_dev struct.

 (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking.  It does
     something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
     pointer or not.

 (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
     irq_handler_t.

When booting using root-nfs, I'm seeing (independently) two lockdep dumps

09779c6df2 [PATCH] smc91x: allow for dynamic bus access configs
All accessor's different methods are now selected with C code and unused
ones statically optimized away at compile time instead of being selected
with #if's and #ifdef's.  This has many advantages such as allowing the
compiler to validate the syntax of the whole code, making it cleaner and
easier to understand, and ultimately allowing people to define
configuration symbols in terms of variables if they really want to
dynamically support multiple bus configurations at the same time (with
the unavoidable performance cost).

9ded96f24c [PATCH] IRQ type flags
Some ARM platforms have the ability to program the interrupt controller to
detect various interrupt edges and/or levels.  For some platforms, this is
critical to setup correctly, particularly those which the setting is dependent
on the device.

Currently, ARM drivers do (eg) the following:

	err = request_irq(irq, ...);

	set_irq_type(irq, IRQT_RISING);

However, if the interrupt has previously been programmed to be level sensitive
(for whatever reason) then this will cause an interrupt storm.

Hence, if we combine set_irq_type() with request_irq(), we can then safely set
the type prior to unmasking the interrupt.  The unfortunate problem is that in
order to support this, these flags need to be visible outside of the ARM
architecture - drivers such as smc91x need these flags and they're
cross-architecture.

Finally, the SA_TRIGGER_* flag passed to request_irq() should reflect the
property that the device would like.  The IRQ controller code should do its
best to select the most appropriate supported mode.

e52542443a [PATCH] smc91x: fix bank mismatch
The smc91x driver relies upon register bank 2 being selected whenever
the interrupt handler is called.  This isn't always so, especially if
we have a link change event during PHY configuration.

This results in register bank 0 being selected when the interrupt
handler is called, causing the wrong registers to be read for the
IRQ mask and status.  In turn, this causes us to spin with a
permanently asserted IRQ.

The patch ensures that smc_phy_configure always exits with register
bank 2 selected.

5d0571d915 [PATCH] smc91x: fix one source of spurious interrupts
Not only SMC_ACK_INT(IM_TX_EMPTY_INT) in in smc_hardware_send_pkt)
appears to be unnecessary (tested with an SMC91C94 and SMC91C111), but
it seems to trigger spurious interrupts on some machines as well.
Removed.

While at it, let's log any remaining spurious interrupts if any (and
clean usage of the max IRQ loop count value).

9480e307cd [PATCH] DRIVER MODEL: Get rid of the obsolete tri-level suspend/resume callbacks
In PM v1, all devices were called at SUSPEND_DISABLE level.  Then
all devices were called at SUSPEND_SAVE_STATE level, and finally
SUSPEND_POWER_DOWN level.  However, with PM v2, to maintain
compatibility for platform devices, I arranged for the PM v2
suspend/resume callbacks to call the old PM v1 suspend/resume
callbacks three times with each level in order so that existing
drivers continued to work.

Since this is obsolete infrastructure which is no longer necessary,
we can remove it.  Here's an (untested) patch to do exactly that.

5f13e7ec5c [PATCH] smc91x needs settable IRQ trigger type
For boards that invert the SMC91x IRQ line (maybe an FPGA inverts it),
the set_irq_type() call can't assume IRQT_RISING.  These particular
boards currently use OMAP-specific calls to change the trigger type,
but the boards break when set_irq_type() stops being a NOP.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,

3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
