[AGPGART] fix detection of aperture size versus GTT size on G965
On the G965, the GTT size may be larger than is required to cover the
aperture. (In fact, on all hardware we've seen, the GTT is 512KB to the
aperture's 256MB). A previous commit forced the aperture size to 512MB on
G965 to match GTT, which would likely result in hangs at best if users
tried to rely on agpgart's aperture size information. Instead, we use the
resource length for the aperture size and the system's reported GTT size
when available for the GTT size.
Because the MSAC registers which had been read for aperture size detection
on i9xx chips just cause a change in the resource size, we can use generic
code for aperture detection on all i9xx.

[AGPGART] Remove unnecessary flushes when inserting and removing pages.
This patch is to speed up flipping of pages in and out of the AGP aperture as
needed by the new drm memory manager.
A number of global cache flushes are removed as well as some PCI posting flushes.
The following guidelines have been used:
1) Memory that is only mapped uncached and that has been subject to a global
cache flush after the mapping was changed to uncached does not need any more
cache flushes. Neither before binding to the aperture nor after unbinding.
2) Only do one PCI posting flush after a sequence of writes modifying page
entries in the GATT.

Make workqueue bit operations work on "atomic_long_t"
On architectures where the atomicity of the bit operations is handled by
external means (ie a separate spinlock to protect concurrent accesses),
just doing a direct assignment on the workqueue data field (as done by
commit
4594bf159f1962cec3b727954b7c598b07e2e737) can cause the
assignment to be lost due to lack of serialization with the bitops on
the same word.
So we need to serialize the assignment with the locks on those
architectures (notably older ARM chips, PA-RISC and sparc32).
So rather than using an "unsigned long", let's use "atomic_long_t",
which already has a safe assignment operation (atomic_long_set()) on
such architectures.
This requires that the atomic operations use the same atomicity locks as
the bit operations do, but that is largely the case anyway. Sparc32
will probably need fixing.
Architectures (including modern ARM with LL/SC) that implement sane
atomic operations for SMP won't see any of this matter.

[ARM] 4016/1: prefetch macro is wrong wrt gcc's "delete-null-pointer-checks"
optimization
The gcc manual says:
|`-fdelete-null-pointer-checks'
| Use global dataflow analysis to identify and eliminate useless
| checks for null pointers. The compiler assumes that dereferencing
| a null pointer would have halted the program. If a pointer is
| checked after it has already been dereferenced, it cannot be null.
| Enabled at levels `-O2', `-O3', `-Os'.
Now the problem can be seen with this test case:
#include <linux/prefetch.h>
extern void bar(char *x);
void foo(char *x)
{
prefetch(x);
if (x)
bar(x);
}
Because the constraint to the inline asm used in the prefetch() macro is
a memory operand, gcc assumes that the asm code does dereference the
pointer and the delete-null-pointer-checks optimization kicks in.
Inspection of generated assembly for the above example shows that bar()
is indeed called unconditionally without any test on the value of x.
Of course in the prefetch case there is no real dereference and it
cannot be assumed that a null pointer would have been caught at that
point. This causes kernel oopses with constructs like
hlist_for_each_entry() where the list's 'next' content is prefetched
before the pointer is tested against NULL, and only when gcc feels like
applying this optimization which doesn't happen all the time with more
complex code.
It appears that the way to prevent delete-null-pointer-checks
optimization to occur in this case is to make prefetch() into a static
inline function instead of a macro. At least this is what is done on
x86_64 where a similar inline asm memory operand is used (I presume they
would have seen the same problem if it didn't work) and resulting code
for the above example confirms that.
An alternative would consist of replacing the memory operand by a
register operand containing the pointer, and use the addressing mode
explicitly in the asm template. But that would be less optimal than an
offsettable memory reference.

fault by write-protect on a COW page.
4. Then data of the COW page will be copied to newly allocated
physical page (copy_cow_page()). It reads data via kernel mapping.
The kernel mapping can have different 'color' with user space
mapping of the thread T2 (dcache aliasing). Therefore
copy_cow_page() will copy stale data. Then the modified data in
cache will be lost.
In order to allow architecture code to deal with this problem allow
architecture code to override copy_user_highpage() by defining
__HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE in <asm/page.h>.
The main part of this patch was originally written by Ralf Baechle;
Atushi Nemoto did the the debugging.

[PATCH] Add support for Korenix 16C950-based PCI cards
This adds initial support to 8250-pci for the Korenix Jetcard PCI serial
cards. The JC12xx cards are standard RS232-based serial cards utilising
the Oxford 16C950 device.
The JC14xx are RS422/RS485-based cards, but in order for these to be
supported natively, we will need additional tweaks to the 8250 layers so
we can specify some values for the 950's registers. Hence, these two
entries are commented out.

[PATCH] getting rid of all casts of k[cmz]alloc() calls
Run this:
#!/bin/sh
for f in $(grep -Erl "\([^\)]*\) *k[cmz]alloc" *) ; do
echo "De-casting $f..."
perl -pi -e "s/ ?= ?\([^\)]*\) *(k[cmz]alloc) *\(/ = \1\(/" $f
done
And then go through and reinstate those cases where code is casting pointers
to non-pointers.
And then drop a few hunks which conflicted with outstanding work.

[PATCH] HPT37x: read f_CNT saved by BIOS from port
The undocumented register BIOS uses for saving f_CNT seems to only be
