Randomise the lower bits of the stack address. More randomisation is good for
security but the scatter can also help with SMT threads that share an L1. A

}

While testing partition migration with heavy CPU load using
shared processors, it was observed that sometimes the migration
would never complete and would appear to hang. Currently, the
migration code assumes that if H_SUCCESS is returned from the H_JOIN
then the migration is complete and the processor is waking up on
the target system. If there was an outstanding PROD to the processor
when the H_JOIN is called, however, it will return H_SUCCESS on the source
system, causing the migration to hang, or in some scenarios cause
the kernel to crash on the complete call waking the caller
of rtas_percpu_suspend_me. Fix this by calling H_JOIN multiple times
if necessary during the migration.

There are hardware limitations on the number of available MSIs,
which firmware expresses using a property named "ibm,pe-total-#msi".
This property tells us how many MSIs are available for devices below
the point in the PCI tree where we find the property.
For old firmwares which don't have the property, we assume there are
8 MSIs available per "partitionable endpoint" (PE). The PE can be
found using existing EEH code, which uses the methods described in
PAPR. For our purposes we want the parent of the node that's
identified using this method.
When a driver requests n MSIs for a device, we first establish where
the "ibm,pe-total-#msi" property above that device is, or we find the
PE if the property is not found. In both cases we call this node
the "pe_dn".
We then count all non-bridge devices below the pe_dn, to establish
how many devices in total may need MSIs. The quota is then simply the
total available divided by the number of devices, if the request is
less than or equal to the quota, the request is fine and we're done.
If the request is greater than the quota, we try to determine if there
are any "spare" MSIs which we can give to this device. Spare MSIs are
found by looking for other devices which can never use their full
quota, because their "req#msi(-x)" property is less than the quota.
If we find any spare, we divide the spares by the number of devices
that could request more than their quota. This ensures the spare
MSIs are spread evenly amongst all over-quota requestors.

If a driver asks for more MSIs than the devices "req#msi(-x)" property,
we currently return -ENOSPC. This doesn't give the driver any chance to
make a new request with a number that might work.
So if "req#msi(-x)" is less than the request, return its value. To be
100% safe, make sure we return an error if req_msi == 0.

Impact: clean up, remove duplicate code
When ftrace was first ported to PowerPC, there existed a
create_function_call that would create the instruction to make a call
to a given address. Unfortunately, this call expected to write to
the address it was given, and since it used the address to calculate
the offset, it could not be faked.
ftrace needed a way to create the instruction without actually writing
that instruction to the text section. So ftrace had to implement its
own code.
Now we have create_branch in the code patching library, which does
exactly what ftrace needs. This patch replaces ftrace's implementation
with the library function.

The original port of ftrace to PowerPC kept a lot of the code used
by x86. Some of this code was to handle x86's 5 byte instruction.
This was handled by using character arrays to manipulate the
code.
PowerPC has a consistent 4 byte instruction. Using unsigned ints
makes the code more efficient as well as more readable.
By converting to use unsigned ints to represent instructions,
I was able to remove the side effects that were needed for
manipulating character strings.

The TOCS used by modules are different than the one used by
the core kernel code. The function graph tracer must save and
restore the TOC whenever it traces a module call. But this
is an added overhead to burden the majority of core kernel
code being traced.
Benjamin Herrenschmidt suggested in testing the entry of
the call to tell if it is a core kernel function or a module.
He recommended using the REGION_ID() macro to perform this test.
This patch implements Benjamin's idea, and uses a different
return_to_handler routine dependent on if the entry is a core
kernel function or not. The module version saves the TOC, where as
the core kernel version does not.

are not behind cardbus bridges will be restored by the PCI PM core
with interrupts disabled anyway).
