Stephen Neuendorffer fe14042358 of/flattree: Refactor unflatten_device_tree and add fdt_unflatten_tree
unflatten_device_tree has two dependencies on things that happen
during boot time.  Firstly, it references the initial device tree
directly. Secondly, it allocates memory using the early boot
allocator.  This patch factors out these dependencies and uses
the new __unflatten_device_tree function to implement a driver-visible
fdt_unflatten_tree function, which can be used to unflatten a
blob after boot time.

V2:
- remove extra __va() call
- make dt_alloc functions return void *.  This doesn't fix the general
  strangeness in this code that constantly casts back and forth between
  unsigned long and __be32 *

Stephen Neuendorffer a40d6c4cf1 of/flattree: Refactor unflatten_dt_node
unflatten_dt_node is a helper function that does most of the work to
convert a device tree blob into tree of device nodes.  This code
now uses a passed-in blob instead of using the single boot-time blob,
allowing it to be called in more contexts.

Stephen Neuendorffer 9706a36e35 of/flattree: Add non-boottime device tree functions
In preparation for providing run-time handling of device trees, factor
out some of the basic functions so that they take an arbitrary blob,
rather than relying on the single boot-time tree.

V2:
- functions have of_fdt_* names
- removed find_flat_dt_string
- blob argument is first

Stephen Neuendorffer e6ce1324e4 of/flattree: Add Kconfig for EARLY_FLATTREE
The device tree code is now in two pieces: some which can be used generically
on any platform which selects CONFIG_OF_FLATTREE, and some early which is used
at boot time on only a few architectures.  This patch segregates the early
code so that only those architectures which care about it need compile it.
This also means that some of the requirements in the early code (such as
a cmd_line variable) that most architectures (e.g. X86) don't provide
can be ignored.

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior 0131d8973c of/address: use proper endianess in get_flags
This patch changes u32 to __be32 for all "ranges", "prop" and "addr" and
such. Those variables are pointing to the device tree which contains
integers in big endian format.

Most functions are doing it right because of_read_number() is doing the
right thing for them. of_bus_isa_get_flags(), of_bus_pci_get_flags() and
of_bus_isa_map() were accessing the data directly and were doing it wrong.

Dirk Brandewie aab94339cd of: Add support for linking device tree blobs into vmlinux
This patch adds support for linking device tree blob(s) into
vmlinux. Modifies asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h to add linking
.dtb sections into vmlinux. To maintain compatiblity with the of/fdt
driver code platforms MUST copy the blob to a non-init memory location
before the kernel frees the .init.* sections in the image.

Modifies scripts/Makefile.lib to add a kbuild command to
compile DTS files to device tree blobs and a rule to create objects to
wrap the blobs for linking.

STRUCT_ALIGNMENT is defined in vmlinux.lds.h for use in the rule to
create wrapper objects for the dtb in Makefile.lib.  The
STRUCT_ALIGN() macro in vmlinux.lds.h is modified to use the
STRUCT_ALIGNMENT definition.

The DTB's are placed on 32 byte boundries to allow parsing the blob
with driver/of/fdt.c during early boot without having to copy the blob
to get the structure alignment GCC expects.

A DTB is linked in by adding the DTB object to the list of objects to
be linked into vmlinux in the archtecture specific Makefile using
   obj-y += foo.dtb.o

Chris Metcalf 81711cee93 arch/tile: handle rt_sigreturn() more cleanly
The current tile rt_sigreturn() syscall pattern uses the common idiom
of loading up pt_regs with all the saved registers from the time of
the signal, then anticipating the fact that we will clobber the ABI
"return value" register (r0) as we return from the syscall by setting
the rt_sigreturn return value to whatever random value was in the pt_regs
for r0.

However, this breaks in our 64-bit kernel when running "compat" tasks,
since we always sign-extend the "return value" register to properly
handle returned pointers that are in the upper 2GB of the 32-bit compat
address space.  Doing this to the sigreturn path then causes occasional
random corruption of the 64-bit r0 register.

Instead, we stop doing the crazy "load the return-value register"
hack in sigreturn.  We already have some sigreturn-specific assembly
code that we use to pass the pt_regs pointer to C code.  We extend that
code to also set the link register to point to a spot a few instructions
after the usual syscall return address so we don't clobber the saved r0.
Now it no longer matters what the rt_sigreturn syscall returns, and the
pt_regs structure can be cleanly and completely reloaded.

Chris Metcalf bc4cf2bb27 arch/tile: handle CLONE_SETTLS in copy_thread(), not user space
Previously we were just setting up the "tp" register in the
new task as started by clone() in libc.  However, this is not
quite right, since in principle a signal might be delivered to
the new task before it had its TLS set up.  (Of course, this race
window still exists for resetting the libc getpid() cached value
in the new task, in principle.  But in any case, we are now doing
this exactly the way all other architectures do it.)

This change is important for 2.6.37 since the tile glibc we will
be submitting upstream will not set TLS in user space any more,
so it will only work on a kernel that has this fix.  It should
also be taken for 2.6.36.x in the stable tree if possible.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 587f0d5d6d [media] bttv: fix mutex use before init (BZ#24602)
Fix a regression where bttv driver causes oopses when loading, since it
were using some non-initialized mutexes. While it would be possible to
fix the issue, there are some other lock troubles, like to the presence of
lock code at free_btres_lock().

It is possible to fix, but the better is to just use the core-assisted
locking schema. This way, V4L2 core will serialize access to all
ioctl's/open/close/mmap/read/poll operations, avoiding to have two
processes accessing the hardware at the same time. Also, as there's just
one lock, instead of 3, there's no risk of dead locks.

The net result is a cleaner code, with just one lock.

Bjorn Helgaas a2c606d53a x86: avoid high BIOS area when allocating address space
This prevents allocation of the last 2MB before 4GB.

The experiment described here shows Windows 7 ignoring the last 1MB:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23542#c27

This patch ignores the top 2MB instead of just 1MB because H. Peter Anvin
says "There will be ROM at the top of the 32-bit address space; it's a fact
of the architecture, and on at least older systems it was common to have a
shadow 1 MiB below."

Bjorn Helgaas 4dc2287c18 x86: avoid E820 regions when allocating address space
When we allocate address space, e.g., to assign it to a PCI device, don't
allocate anything mentioned in the BIOS E820 memory map.

On recent machines (2008 and newer), we assign PCI resources from the
windows described by the ACPI PCI host bridge _CRS.  On many Dell
machines, these windows overlap some E820 reserved areas, e.g.,

    BIOS-e820: 00000000bfe4dc00 - 00000000c0000000 (reserved)
    pci_root PNP0A03:00: host bridge window [mem 0xbff00000-0xdfffffff]

If we put devices at 0xbff00000, they don't work, probably because
that's really RAM, not I/O memory.  This patch prevents that by removing
the 0xbfe4dc00-0xbfffffff area from the "available" resource.

I'm not very happy with this solution because Windows solves the problem
differently (it seems to ignore E820 reserved areas and it allocates
top-down instead of bottom-up; details at comment 45 of the bugzilla
below).  That means we're vulnerable to BIOS defects that Windows would not
trip over.  For example, if BIOS described a device in ACPI but didn't
mention it in E820, Windows would work fine but Linux would fail.

Bjorn Helgaas 30919b0bf3 x86: avoid low BIOS area when allocating address space
This implements arch_remove_reservations() so allocate_resource() can
avoid any arch-specific reserved areas.  This currently just avoids the
BIOS area (the first 1MB), but could be used for E820 reserved areas if
that turns out to be necessary.

We previously avoided this area in pcibios_align_resource().  This patch
moves the test from that PCI-specific path to a generic path, so *all*
resource allocations will avoid this area.

Bjorn Helgaas fcb119183c resources: add arch hook for preventing allocation in reserved areas
This adds arch_remove_reservations(), which an arch can implement if it
needs to protect part of the address space from allocation.

Sometimes that can be done by just putting a region in the resource tree,
but there are cases where that doesn't work well.  For example, x86 BIOS
E820 reservations are not related to devices, so they may overlap part of,
all of, or more than a device resource, so they may not end up at the
correct spot in the resource tree.
