a904f74785 [MIPS] Sibyte: Fix race in sb1250_gettimeoffset().
From Dave Johnson <djohnson+linuxmips@sw.starentnetworks.com>:
    
sb1250_gettimeoffset() simply reads the current cpu 0 timer remaining
value, however once this counter reaches 0 and the interrupt is raised,
it immediately resets and begins to count down again.
    
If sb1250_gettimeoffset() is called on cpu 1 via do_gettimeofday() after
the timer has reset but prior to cpu 0 processing the interrupt and
taking write_seqlock() in timer_interrupt() it will return a full value
(or close to it) causing time to jump backwards 1ms. Once cpu 0 handles
the interrupt and timer_interrupt() gets far enough along it will jump
forward 1ms.
    
Fix this problem by implementing mips_hpt_*() on sb1250 using a spare
timer unrelated to the existing periodic interrupt timers. It runs at
1Mhz with a full 23bit counter.  This eliminated the custom
do_gettimeoffset() for sb1250 and allowed use of the generic
fixed_rate_gettimeoffset() using mips_hpt_*() and timerhi/timerlo.

d6bd0e6b32 [MIPS] Protect more of timer_interrupt() by xtime_lock.
From Dave Johnson <djohnson+linuxmips@sw.starentnetworks.com>:

* do_timer() expects the arch-specific handler to take the lock as it
  modifies jiffies[_64] and xtime.
* writing timerhi/lo in timer_interrupt() will mess up
  fixed_rate_gettimeoffset() which reads timerhi/lo.

82c3c03a40 [PATCH] x86: check for online cpus before bringing them up
Bryce reported a bug wherein offlining CPU0 (on x86 box) and then
subsequently onlining it resulted in a lockup.

On x86, CPU0 is never offlined.  The subsequent attempt to online CPU0
doesn't take that into account.  It actually tries to bootup the already
booted CPU.  Following patch fixes the problem (as acknowledged by Bryce).
Please consider for inclusion in 2.6.16.

Check if cpu is already online.

0a45d4491d powerpc: Fix problem with time going backwards
The recent changes to keep gettimeofday in sync with xtime had the side
effect that it was occasionally possible for the time reported by
gettimeofday to go back by a microsecond.  There were two reasons:
(1) when we recalculated the offsets used by gettimeofday every 2^31
timebase ticks, we lost an accumulated fractional microsecond, and
(2) because the update is done some time after the notional start of
jiffy, if ntp is slowing the clock, it is possible to see time go backwards
when the timebase factor gets reduced.

This fixes it by (a) slowing the gettimeofday clock by about 1us in
2^31 timebase ticks (a factor of less than 1 in 3.7 million), and (b)
adjusting the timebase offsets in the rare case that the gettimeofday
result could possibly go backwards (i.e. when ntp is slowing the clock
and the timer interrupt is late).  In this case the adjustment will
reduce to zero eventually because of (a).

c33d4568ac [PATCH] x86-64: Fix up handling of non canonical user RIPs
EM64T CPUs have somewhat weird error reporting for non canonical RIPs in
SYSRET.

We can't handle any exceptions there because the exception handler would
end up running on the user stack which is unsafe.

To avoid problems any code that might end up with a user touched pt_regs
should return using int_ret_from_syscall.  int_ret_from_syscall ends up
using IRET, which allows safe exceptions.

ARM1136 erratum 371025 (category 2) specifies that, under rare
conditions, an invalidate I-cache by MVA (line or range) operation can
fail to invalidate a cache line. The recommended workaround is to
either invalidate the entire I-cache or invalidate the range by
set/way rather than MVA.

Note that for a 16K cache size, invalidating a 4K page by set/way is
equivalent to invalidating the entire I-cache.

96567161de [PATCH] s390: Increase spinlock retry code performance
Currently the code tries up to spin_retry times to grab a lock using the cs
instruction.  The cs instruction has exclusive access to a memory region
and therefore invalidates the appropiate cache line of all other cpus.  If
there is contention on a lock this leads to cache line trashing.  This can
be avoided if we first check wether a cs instruction is likely to succeed
before the instruction gets actually executed.

f9262c12c0 [PATCH] i386: port ATI timer fix from x86_64 to i386 II
ATI chipsets tend to generate double timer interrupts for the local APIC
timer when both the 8254 and the IO-APIC timer pins are enabled.  This is
because they route it to both and the result is anded together and the CPU
ends up processing it twice.

This patch changes check_timer to disable the 8254 routing for interrupt 0.

I think it would be safe on all chipsets actually (i tested it on a couple
and it worked everywhere) and Windows seems to do it in a similar way, but
to be conservative this patch only enables this mode on ATI (and adds
options to enable/disable too)

Ported over from a similar x86-64 change.

I reused the ACPI earlyquirk infrastructure for the ATI bridge check, but
tweaked it a bit to work even without ACPI.

Inspired by a patch from Chuck Ebbert, but redone.

d8117ce5a6 [IA64] Fix race in the accessed/dirty bit handlers
A pte may be zapped by the swapper, exiting process, unmapping or page
migration while the accessed or dirty bit handers are about to run. In that
case the accessed bit or dirty is set on an zeroed pte which leads the VM to
conclude that this is a swap pte. This may lead to

- Messages from the vm like

swap_free: Bad swap file entry 4000000000000000

- Processes being aborted

swap_dup: Bad swap file entry 4000000000000000
VM: killing process ....

Page migration is particular suitable for the creation of this race since
it needs to remove and restore page table entries.

The fix here is to check for the present bit and simply not update
the pte if the page is not present anymore. If the page is not present
then the fault handler should run next which will take care of the problem
by bringing the page back and then mark the page dirty or move it onto the
active list.

e7fcdb79ec [ARM] 3355/1: NSLU2: remove propmt depends
Patch from Alessandro Zummo

The patch that would have made the NSLU2
kernel non compatible with other ixp4xx machs
never entered the kernel. So it is actually
safe to remove the prompt dependencies.

2ec5e3a867 [PATCH] fix kexec asm
While testing kexec and kdump we hit problems where the new kernel would
freeze or instantly reboot.  The easiest way to trigger it was to kexec a
kernel compiled for CONFIG_M586 on an athlon cpu.  Compiling for CONFIG_MK7
instead would work fine.

The patch fixes a few problems with the kexec inline asm.
