1745fbc744 powerpc/virtex: refactor intc driver and add support for i8259 cascading
This patch refactors some of the xilinx_intc interrupt controller driver
and adds support for cascading an i8259 off one of the irq lines.

This patch was based on the ML510 support work done by Roderick
Colenbrander.

baf75b0a42 powerpc/pci: Fix annotation of pcibios_claim_one_bus
It was __devinit, but it is also within a CONFIG_HOTPLUG guarded section
of code, so the __devinit does nothing but cause the following warning:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x107a8): Section mismatch in reference from the function pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus() to the function .devinit.text:pcibios_claim_one_bus()
The function pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus() references
the function __devinit pcibios_claim_one_bus().
This is often because pcibios_finish_adding_to_bus lacks a __devinit
annotation or the annotation of pcibios_claim_one_bus is wrong.

It is also only (externally) used in arch/powerpc/kernel/of_platform.c
which cannot be built as a module so don't export it.

f8729e8531 powerpc: Convert RTAS event scan from kernel thread to workqueue
RTAS event scan has to run across all cpus. Right now we use a kernel
thread and set_cpus_allowed but in doing so we wake up the previous cpu
unnecessarily.

Some ftrace output shows this:

previous cpu (2):

[002]  7.022344: sched_switch: task migration/2:9 [0] ==> swapper:0 [140]

next cpu (3):
[003]  7.022345: sched_switch: task swapper:0 [140] ==> rtasd:194 [120]
[003]  7.022371: sched_switch: task rtasd:194 [120] ==> swapper:0 [140]

We can use schedule_delayed_work_on and avoid the unnecessary wakeup.

8b31e49d1d powerpc: Fix up dma_alloc_coherent() on platforms without cache coherency.
The implementation we just revived has issues, such as using a
Kconfig-defined virtual address area in kernel space that nothing
actually carves out (and thus will overlap whatever is there),
or having some dependencies on being self contained in a single
PTE page which adds unnecessary constraints on the kernel virtual
address space.

This fixes it by using more classic PTE accessors and automatically
locating the area for consistent memory, carving an appropriate hole
in the kernel virtual address space, leaving only the size of that
area as a Kconfig option. It also brings some dma-mask related fixes
from the ARM implementation which was almost identical initially but
grew its own fixes.

84532a0fc3 Revert "powerpc: Rework dma-noncoherent to use generic vmalloc layer"
This reverts commit 33f00dcedb.

    While it was a good idea to try to use the mm/vmalloc.c allocator instead
    of our own (in fact, ours is itself a dup on an old variant of the vmalloc
    one), unfortunately, the approach is terminally busted since
    dma_alloc_coherent() can be called at interrupt time or in atomic contexts
    and there's little chances we'll make the code in mm/vmalloc.c cope with\       that :-(

    Until we can get the generic code to forbid that idiocy and fix all
    drivers abusing it, we pretty much have no choice but revert to
    our custom virtual space allocator.

    There's also a problem with SMP safety since freeing such mapping
    would require an IPI which cannot be done at interrupt time.

    However, right now, I don't think we support any platform that is
    both SMP and has non-coherent DMA (don't laugh, I know such things
    do exist !) so we can sort that out later.

e4a5d54f92 drm/i915: Add support for VGA load detection (pre-945).
Two approaches for VGA detections: hot plug detection for 945G onwards
and load pipe detection for Pre-945G.  Load pipe detection will get one free
pipe, set border color as red and blue, then check CRT status by
swf register.  This is a sync-up with the 2D driver.

ca446d0635 [CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: determine exact CPU frequency for HW Pstates
Slightly modified by trenn@suse.de -> only do this on fam 10h and fam 11h.

Currently powernow-k8 determines CPU frequency from ACPI PSS objects, but
according to AMD family 11h BKDG this frequency is just a rounded value:

  "CoreFreq (MHz) = The CPU COF specified by MSRC001_00[6B:64][CpuFid]
  rounded to the nearest 100 Mhz."

As a consequnce powernow-k8 reports wrong CPU frequency on some systems,
e.g. on Turion X2 Ultra:

  powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Turion(tm)X2 Ultra DualCore Mobile ZM-82
               processors (2 cpu cores) (version 2.20.00)
  powernow-k8:    0 : pstate 0 (2200 MHz)
  powernow-k8:    1 : pstate 1 (1100 MHz)
  powernow-k8:    2 : pstate 2 (600 MHz)

But this is wrong as frequency for Pstate2 is 550 MHz. x86info reports it
correctly:

  #x86info -a |grep Pstate
  ...
  Pstate-0: fid=e, did=0, vid=24 (2200MHz)
  Pstate-1: fid=e, did=1, vid=30 (1100MHz)
  Pstate-2: fid=e, did=2, vid=3c (550MHz) (current)

Solution is to determine the frequency directly from Pstate MSRs instead
of using rounded values from ACPI table.

df1829770d [CPUFREQ] powernow-k8 cleanup msg if BIOS does not export ACPI _PSS cpufreq data
- Make the message shorter and easier to grep for
- Use printk_once instead of WARN_ONCE (functionality of these was mixed)

cpufreq fix timer teardown in ondemand governor

The problem is that dbs_timer_exit() uses cancel_delayed_work() when it should
use cancel_delayed_work_sync(). cancel_delayed_work() does not wait for the
workqueue handler to exit.

The ondemand governor does not seem to be affected because the
"if (!dbs_info->enable)" check at the beginning of the workqueue handler returns
immediately without rescheduling the work. The conservative governor in
2.6.30-rc has the same check as the ondemand governor, which makes things
usually run smoothly. However, if the governor is quickly stopped and then
started, this could lead to the following race :

dbs_enable could be reenabled and multiple do_dbs_timer handlers would run.
This is why a synchronized teardown is required.

The following patch applies to, at least, 2.6.28.x, 2.6.29.1, 2.6.30-rc2.

cpufreq: remove rwsem lock from CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP call

The following patch applies to 2.6.30-rc2. Stable kernels have a similar
issue which should also be fixed, but the code changed between 2.6.29
and 2.6.30, so this patch only applies to 2.6.30-rc.
