Current module loader lookups ".data.percpu" ELF section to perform
per_cpu relocation. But DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED() uses another
section (".data.percpu.shared_aligned"), currently only handled in
vmlinux.lds, not by module loader.
To correct this problem, instead of adding logic into module loader, or
using at build time a module.lds file for all arches to group
".data.percpu.shared_aligned" into ".data.percpu", just use ".data.percpu"
for modules.
Alignment requirements are correctly handled by ld and module loader.

I noticed this because alpha was broken due to the recent commit commit
bdc807871d ("avoid overflows in
kernel/time.c"). Most arches do something like this in their
asm/param.h:
#ifdef __KERNEL__
# define HZ CONFIG_HZ
#else
# define HZ 100
#endif
A few arches though (namely alpha/h8300/um/v850/xtensa) either do no set
HZ at all for !__KERNEL__, or they set it wrongly. This should bring all
arches in line by setting up HZ for userspace.
Without this currently perl 5.10 doesn't build on alpha:

The AD181x and AZT230 chips don't support an IRQ-less MPU401 option but
work fine without one. This adds (priority functional) IRQ-less options
for each port option to help systems with few available IRQs.
The AD1815 quirk can't use pnp_register_irq_resource() due to doubly
penalizing the IRQ. Also, while not a practical issue due to no IRQ
option being present for the dependents, this needs to add in front, not
back.
Doesn't use pnp_register_port_resource() for symetry with above.
This does not delete the AD1815 independent option even though it should
be empty after the IRQ transfer due to AD1816 coming with an empty but
still present independent option by default.
Was tested on AD1815, AD1816 and AZT2320. The ALSA snd-ad1818a driver
also support the AZT2002 ID for MPU401 but this doesn't as I was unable to

The following patch caused a regression with OLPC panels:
commit 3888d4639e
lxfb: extend PLL table to support dotclocks below 25 MHz
Extends the PLL frequency table of the AMD Geode-LX frame buffer driver to
make use of the DIV4 bit, thus adding support for dotclocks between 6 and 25
MHz. These are needed for small LCDs (e.g. 320x240). Also inserts some
intermediate steps between pre-existing frequencies.
The problem was the insertion of intermediate steps into the frequency
table; they would cause the wrong frequency to be matched. This patch
drops those intermediate frequencies while keeping the sub-25MHz
frequencies.

match_strcpy() is a somewhat creepy function: the caller needs to make sure
that the destination buffer is big enough, and when he screws up or
forgets, match_strcpy() happily overruns the buffer.
There's exactly one customer: v9fs_parse_options(). I believe it currently
can't overflow its buffer, but that's not exactly obvious.
The source string is a substing of the mount options. The kernel silently
truncates those to PAGE_SIZE bytes, including the terminating zero. See
compat_sys_mount() and do_mount().
The destination buffer is obtained from __getname(), which allocates from
name_cachep, which is initialized by vfs_caches_init() for size PATH_MAX.
We're safe as long as PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE. PATH_MAX is 4096. As far as
I know, the smallest PAGE_SIZE is also 4096.
Here's a patch that makes the code a bit more obviously correct. It
doesn't depend on PATH_MAX <= PAGE_SIZE.

Some IA64 machines map all cell-local memory above 4 GB (32 bit limit).
However, in most cases, the kernel needs some memory below that limit that is
DMA-capable. So in this machine configuration, the crashkernel will be reserved
above 4 GB.
For machines that use SWIOTLB implementation because they lack an I/O MMU
the low memory is required by the SWIOTLB implementation. In that case,
it doesn't make sense to reserve the crashkernel at all because it's unusable
for kdump.
A special case is the "hpzx1" machine vector. In theory, it has a I/O MMU, so
it can be booted above 4 GB. However, in the kdump case that is not possible
because of changeset 51b58e3e26ebfb8cd56825c4b396ed251f51dec9:
On HP zx1 machines, the 'machvec=dig' parameter is needed for the kdump
kernel to avoid problems with the HP sba iommu. The problem is that during
the boot of the kdump kernel, the iommu is re-initialized, so in-flight DMA
from improperly shutdown drivers causes an IOTLB miss which leads to an
MCA. With kdump, the idea is to get into the kdump kernel with as little
code as we can, so shutting down drivers properly is not an option.
The workaround is to add 'machvec=dig' to the kdump kernel boot parameters.
This makes the kdump kernel avoid using the sba iommu altogether, leaving
the IOTLB intact. Any ongoing DMA falls harmlessly outside the kdump
kernel. After the kdump kernel reboots, all devices will have been
shutdown properly and DMA stopped.
This patch pushes that functionality into the sba iommu initialization
code, so that users won't have to find the obscure documentation telling
them about 'machvec=dig'.
This means that also for hpzx1 it's not possible to boot when all
memory is above the 4 GB limit. So the only machine vectors that can handle
this case are "sn2" and "uv".
