If a thread became runnable between need_resched() and the WAIT
instruction, switching to the thread will delay until a next interrupt.
Some CPUs can execute the WAIT instruction with interrupt disabled, so
we can get rid of this race on them (at least UP case).
Original Patch by Atsushi with fixing up for MIPS Technology's cores by
Ralf based on feedback from the RTL designers.

I've encountered a serious problem with PCI config space access on Au1x000
platforms with recent 2.6.x-kernel. With 2.4.31 the same hardware works fine.
So I was looking for the differences:
Symptoms:
- no PCI-device is seen on bootup though two or three cards are present
- lspci output is empty
- OR: lspci shows 20 times the same device
(- OR: in some slot-configurations it worked anyhow)
System(s):
1. platform with Au1500 and three PCI-devices (actually a mycable XXS1500
with backplane for three PCI-devices)
2. platform with Au1550 and two PCI-devices (custom board)
Debugging:
I digged down to the config_access() of the au1xxx-processors in
arch/mips/pci/ops-au1000.c and switched on DEBUG.
The code of config_access() seems to be almost the same as of the
2.4.x-kernel. But the "pci_cfg_vm->addr" returned by get_vm_area(0x2000, 0)
once on booting is different. That's of course not forbidden. But the
alignment seems to be wrong. In my case, I received:
2.4.31: pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0000000
2.6.18-rc5: pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0101000
To make it short: With 2.6.x it fails on the first config-access with:
"PCI ERR detected: status 83a00356".
Fixup:
My fix is now, to use the VM_IOREMAP-flag in the get_vm_area call. This flag
seems to be introduced in mm/vmalloc.c a long time ago (in 2.6.7-bk13, I
found in gitweb).
Now, the returned address is pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0104000 and everything works
fine.

Since lmo commit 323a380bf9e1a1679a774a2b053e3c1f2aa3f179 ("Simplify
dump_stack()") made prepare_frametrace() always inlined, using $2 (v0)
in __asm__ is not safe anymore. We can use $1 (at) instead. Also we
should use "dla" instead of "la" for 64-bit kernel.

c-r4k.c and c-sb1.c use drop_mmu_context() to flush virtually tagged
I-caches, but this does not work for flushing other task's icache. This
is for example triggered by copy_to_user_page() called from ptrace(2).
Use indexed flush for such cases.

In entry.S resume_userspace ... jal do_notify_resume form a loop through
which the kernel will iterate as long as work is pending. If we
iterate through this loop more than once with no signal pending for at
least one but the last iteration we will take do the syscall restarting
multiple times resulting in a syscall return prior to the the syscall
instruction in userspace. This may happen when debugging a multithreaded
program.

This patch allows unwind_stack() to return ra for leaf function.
But it tries to detects cases where get_frame_info() wrongly
consider nested function as a leaf one.
It also pass 'unsinged long *sp' instead of 'unsigned long **sp'
as second parameter. The code looks cleaner.

Instead of dump all possible address in the stack, unwind the stack frame
based on prologue code analysis, as like as get_wchan() does. While the
code analysis might fail for some reason, there is a new kernel option
"raw_show_trace" to disable this feature.
