On some systems the ACPI NVS area is located in the first 1 MB of RAM and
it is overwritten by the i386 code during the restore after hibernation.
This confuses the ACPI platform firmware that doesn't update the AC adapter
status appropriately as a result
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7995).
The solution is to register the reserved memory in the first 1 MB as
'nosave', so that swsusp doesn't touch it during the restore. Also, this
has been done on x86_64 for a long time now, so this patch makes the i386
restore code behave like the x86_64 one.

This patch resolves the issue found here:
http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7426
The basic summary is:
Currently we register most of i386/x86_64 clocksources at module_init
time. Then we enable clocksource selection at late_initcall time. This
causes some problems for drivers that use gettimeofday for init
calibration routines (specifically the es1968 driver in this case),
where durring module_init, the only clocksource available is the low-res
jiffies clocksource. This may cause slight calibration errors, due to
the small sampling time used.
It should be noted that drivers that require fine grained time may not
function on architectures that do not have better then jiffies
resolution timekeeping (there are a few). However, this does not
discount the reasonable need for such fine-grained timekeeping at init
time.
Thus the solution here is to register clocksources earlier (ideally when
the hardware is being initialized), and then we enable clocksource
selection at fs_initcall (before device_initcall).
This patch should probably get some testing time in -mm, since
clocksource selection is one of the most important issues for correct
timekeeping, and I've only been able to test this on a few of my own
boxes.

Arch-independent zone-sizing is using indices instead of symbolic names to

Address a long standing issue of booting with an initrd on an i386 numa
system. Currently (and always) the numa kva area is mapped into low memory
by finding the end of low memory and moving that mark down (thus creating
space for the kva). The issue with this is that Grub loads initrds into
this similar space so when the kernel check the initrd it finds it outside
max_low_pfn and disables it (it thinks the initrd is not mapped into usable
memory) thus initrd enabled kernels can't boot i386 numa :(
My solution to the problem just converts the numa kva area to use the
bootmem allocator to save it's area (instead of moving the end of low
memory). Using bootmem allows the kva area to be mapped into more diverse
addresses (not just the end of low memory) and enables the kva area to be
mapped below the initrd if present.
I have tested this patch on numaq(no initrd) and summit(initrd) i386 numa
based systems.

This patch replaces the open-coded early commandline parsing
throughout the i386 boot code with the generic mechanism (already used
by ppc, powerpc, ia64 and s390). The code was inconsistent with
whether it deletes the option from the cmdline or not, meaning some of
these will get passed through the environment into init.
This transformation is mainly mechanical, but there are some notable
parts:
1) Grammar: s/linux never set's it up/linux never sets it up/
2) Remove hacked-in earlyprintk= option scanning. When someone
actually implements CONFIG_EARLY_PRINTK, then they can use
early_param().
[AK: actually it is implemented, but I'm adding the early_param it in the next
x86-64 patch]
3) Move declaration of generic_apic_probe() from setup.c into asm/apic.h
4) Various parameters now moved into their appropriate files (thanks Andi).
5) All parse functions which examine arg need to check for NULL,

The check for the MCFG table being reserved in the e820 map was originally
added to detect a broken BIOS in a preproduction Intel SDV. However it also
breaks the Apple x86 Macs, which can't supply this properly, but need
a working MCFG. With this patch they wouldn't use the MCFG and not work.
After some discussion I think it's best to remove the heuristic again.
It also failed on some other boxes (although it didn't cause much
problems there because old style port access for PCI config space
still works as fallback), but the preproduction SDVs can just use
pci=nommcfg. Supporting production machines properly is more
important.

Currently /proc/iomem exports physical memory also apart from io device
memory. But on i386, it truncates any memory more than 4GB. This leads to
problems for kexec/kdump.
Kexec reads /proc/iomem to determine the system memory layout and prepares a
memory map based on that and passes it to the kernel being kexeced. Given the
fact that memory more than 4GB has been truncated, new kernel never gets to
see and use that memory.
Kdump also reads /proc/iomem to determine the physical memory layout of the
system and encodes this informaiton in ELF headers. After a crash new kernel
parses these ELF headers being used by previous kernel and vmcore is prepared
accordingly. As memory more than 4GB has been truncated, kdump never sees
that memory and never prepares ELF headers for it. Hence vmcore is truncated
and limited to 4GB even if there is more physical memory in the system.
This patch exports memory more than 4GB through /proc/iomem on i386.

This effectively undoes the PCI resource allocation changes done in

of that commit in place.
We're going back to marking the resources reported by e820 busy _before_
doing PCI probing, so that any PCI resource that clashes with the BIOS-
reported memory map will be reloacted to a non-clashing area.
The reason? Larry Finger reports that his laptop has the cardbus
controller set up by the BIOS so that it conflicts with the e820 memory
map, and needs to be relocated. See
