Impact: Fix debugobjects warning
debugobject enabled kernels spit out a warning in hpet code due to a
workqueue which is initialized on stack.
Add INIT_WORK_ON_STACK() which calls init_timer_on_stack() and use it
in hpet.

Impact: Fixes crashes with misconfigured BIOSes on XSAVE hardware
Avuton Olrich reported early boot crashes with v2.6.28 and
bisected it down to dc1e35c6e9
("x86, xsave: enable xsave/xrstor on cpus with xsave support").
If the CPUID limit bit in MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE is set, clear it to
make all CPUID information available. This is required for some
features to work, in particular XSAVE.

Create a separate mode_config IDR lock for simplicity. The core DRM
config structures (connector, mode, etc. lists) are still protected by
the mode_config mutex, but the CRTC IDR (used for the various identifier
IDs) is now protected by the mode_config idr_mutex. Simplifies the
locking a bit and removes a warning.
All objects are protected by the config mutex, we may in the future,
split the object further to have reference counts.

[XFS] Long btree pointers are still 64 bit on disk
On 32 bit machines with CONFIG_LBD=n, XFS reduces the
in memory size of xfs_fsblock_t to 32 bits so that it
will fit within 32 bit addressing. However, the disk format
for long btree pointers are still 64 bits in size.
The recent btree rewrite failed to take this into account
when initialising new btree blocks, setting sibling pointers
to NULL and checking if they are NULL. Hence checking whether
a 64 bit NULL was the same as a 32 bit NULL was failingi
resulting in NULL sibling pointers failing to be detected
correctly. This showed up as WANT_CORRUPTED_GOTO shutdowns
in xfs_btree_delrec.
Fix this by making all the comparisons and setting of long
pointer btree NULL blocks to the disk format, not the
in memory format. i.e. use NULLDFSBNO.

dlm_posix_get fills out the relevant fields in the file_lock before
returning when there is a lock conflict, but doesn't clean out any of
the other fields in the file_lock.
When nfsd does a NFSv4 lockt call, it sets the fl_lmops to
nfsd_posix_mng_ops before calling the lower fs. When the lock comes back
after testing a lock on GFS2, it still has that field set. This confuses
nfsd into thinking that the file_lock is a nfsd4 lock.
Fix this by making DLM reinitialize the file_lock before copying the
fields from the conflicting lock.

> x86: track memtype for RAM in page struct
This commit breaks mapping any RAM page through /dev/mem, as the
reserve_memtype() was not initializing the return attribute type and as such
corrupting the PTE entry that was setup with the return attribute type.
Because of this bug, application mapping this RAM page through /dev/mem
will die with "Corrupted page table at address xxxx" message in the kernel
log and also the kernel identity mapping which maps the underlying RAM
page gets converted to UC.
Fix this by initializing the return attribute type before calling
reserve_ram_pages_type()

I realized that the mtrr.show param cannot work, because
the code is processed much too early.
This patch:
- Declares mtrr.show as early_param
- Stays consistent with the previous param (which I doubt
that it ever worked), so mtrr.show=1 would still work
- Declares mtrr_show as initdata

Impact: fix sporadic slowdowns and warning messages
This patch fixes a performance issue reported by Linus on his
Nehalem system. While Linus reverted the PAT patch (commit
58dab916df) which exposed the issue,
existing cpa() code can potentially still cause wrong(page attribute
corruption) behavior.
This patch also fixes the "WARNING: at arch/x86/mm/pageattr.c:560" that
various people reported.
In 64bit kernel, kernel identity mapping might have holes depending
on the available memory and how e820 reports the address range
covering the RAM, ACPI, PCI reserved regions. If there is a 2MB/1GB hole
in the address range that is not listed by e820 entries, kernel identity
mapping will have a corresponding hole in its 1-1 identity mapping.
If cpa() happens on the kernel identity mapping which falls into these holes,
existing code fails like this:
__change_page_attr_set_clr()
__change_page_attr()
returns 0 because of if (!kpte). But doesn't
set cpa->numpages and cpa->pfn.
cpa_process_alias()
uses uninitialized cpa->pfn (random value)
which can potentially lead to changing the page
attribute of kernel text/data, kernel identity
mapping of RAM pages etc. oops!
This bug was easily exposed by another PAT patch which was doing
cpa() more often on kernel identity mapping holes (physical range between
max_low_pfn_mapped and 4GB), where in here it was setting the
cache disable attribute(PCD) for kernel identity mappings aswell.
Fix cpa() to handle the kernel identity mapping holes. Retain
the WARN() for cpa() calls to other not present address ranges
(kernel-text/data, ioremap() addresses)

When doing large allocations (larger than the per-device coherent area)
the generic memory allocators are silently fallen back on regardless of
consideration for the per-device constraints.
In the DMA_MEMORY_EXCLUSIVE case falling back on generic memory is not
an option, as it tends not to be addressable by the DMA hardware in
question. This issue showed up with the 8139too breakage on the
Dreamcast, where non-addressable buffers were silently allocated due to
the size mismatch calculation -- while it should have simply errored out
upon being unable to satisfy the allocation with the given device
constraints.
This restores fall back behaviour to what it was before the oversized
request change caused multiple regressions.
