Update to 2.6.12-rc3

The following renames arch_init, a kprobes function for performing any
architecture specific initialization, to arch_init_kprobes in order to
cleanup the namespace.
Also, this patch adds arch_init_kprobes to sparc64 to fix the sparc64 kprobes
build from the last return probe patch.

This patch adds the Freescale MPC86xADS board support. The supported
devices are SMC UART and 10Mbit ethernet on SCC1.
The manual for the board says that it "is compatible with the MPC8xxFADS
for software point of view". That's why this patch extends FADS instead of
introducing a new platform.
FEC is not supported as the "combined FCC/FEC ethernet driver" driver by
Pantelis Antoniou should replace the current FEC driver.

Make TSO segment transmit size decisions at send time not earlier.
The basic scheme is that we try to build as large a TSO frame as
possible when pulling in the user data, but the size of the TSO frame
output to the card is determined at transmit time.
This is guided by tp->xmit_size_goal. It is always set to a multiple
of MSS and tells sendmsg/sendpage how large an SKB to try and build.
Later, tcp_write_xmit() and tcp_push_one() chop up the packet if
necessary and conditions warrant. These routines can also decide to
"defer" in order to wait for more ACKs to arrive and thus allow larger
TSO frames to be emitted.
A general observation is that TSO elongates the pipe, thus requiring a
larger congestion window and larger buffering especially at the sender
side. Therefore, it is important that applications 1) get a large
enough socket send buffer (this is accomplished by our dynamic send
buffer expansion code) 2) do large enough writes.

'nonagle' should be passed to the tcp_snd_test() function
as 'TCP_NAGLE_PUSH' if we are checking an SKB not at the
tail of the write_queue. This is because Nagle does not
apply to such frames since we cannot possibly tack more
data onto them.
However, while doing this __tcp_push_pending_frames() makes
all of the packets in the write_queue use this modified
'nonagle' value.
Fix the bug and simplify this function by just calling
tcp_write_xmit() directly if sk_send_head is non-NULL.
As a result, we can now make tcp_data_snd_check() just call
tcp_push_pending_frames() instead of the specialized
__tcp_data_snd_check().

tcp_write_xmit() uses tcp_current_mss(), but some of it's callers,
namely __tcp_push_pending_frames(), already has this value available
already.
While we're here, fix the "cur_mss" argument to be "unsigned int"
instead of plain "unsigned".

The tcp_cwnd_validate() function should only be invoked
if we actually send some frames, yet __tcp_push_pending_frames()
will always invoke it. tcp_write_xmit() does the call for us,
so the call here can simply be removed.
Also, tcp_write_xmit() can be marked static.

This just moves the code into tcp_output.c, no code logic changes are
made by this patch.
Using this as a baseline, we can begin to untangle the mess of
comparisons for the Nagle test et al. We will also be able to reduce
all of the redundant computation that occurs when outputting data
packets.

On each packet output, we call tcp_dec_quickack_mode()
if the ACK flag is set. It drops tp->ack.quick until
it hits zero, at which time we deflate the ATO value.
When doing TSO, we are emitting multiple packets with
ACK set, so we should decrement tp->ack.quick that many
segments.
Note that, unlike this case, tcp_enter_cwr() should not
take the tcp_skb_pcount(skb) into consideration. That
function, one time, readjusts tp->snd_cwnd and moves
into TCP_CA_CWR state.

The ideal and most optimal layout for an SKB when doing
scatter-gather is to put all the headers at skb->data, and
all the user data in the page array.
This makes SKB splitting and combining extremely simple,
especially before a packet goes onto the wire the first
time.
So, when sk_stream_alloc_pskb() is given a zero size, make
sure there is no skb_tailroom(). This is achieved by applying
SKB_DATA_ALIGN() to the header length used here.
Next, make select_size() in TCP output segmentation use a
length of zero when NETIF_F_SG is true on the outgoing
interface.

This is the code to load packet data into a register:
k = fentry->k;
if (k < 0) {
...
} else {
u32 _tmp, *p;
p = skb_header_pointer(skb, k, 4, &_tmp);
if (p != NULL) {
A = ntohl(*p);
continue;
}
}
skb_header_pointer checks if the requested data is within the
linear area:
int hlen = skb_headlen(skb);
if (offset + len <= hlen)
return skb->data + offset;
When offset is within [INT_MAX-len+1..INT_MAX] the addition will
result in a negative number which is <= hlen.
I couldn't trigger a crash on my AMD64 with 2GB of memory, but a
coworker tried on his x86 machine and it crashed immediately.
This patch fixes the check in skb_header_pointer to handle large
positive offsets similar to skb_copy_bits. Invalid data can still
be accessed using negative offsets (also similar to skb_copy_bits),
anyone using negative offsets needs to verify them himself.
Thanks to Thomas Vögtle <thomas.voegtle@coreworks.de> for verifying the
problem by crashing his machine and providing me with an Oops.

This was the main impetus behind adding the PCI IRQ shim.
In order to properly order DMA writes wrt. interrupts, you have to
write to a PCI controller register, then poll for that bit clearing.
There is one bit for each interrupt source, and setting this register
bit tells Tomatillo to drain all pending DMA from that device.
Furthermore, Tomatillo's with revision less than 4 require us to do a
block store due to some memory transaction ordering issues it has on
JBUS.

This allows a PCI controller to shim into IRQ delivery
so that DMA queues can be drained, if necessary.
If some bus specific code needs to run before an IRQ
handler is invoked, the bus driver simply needs to setup
the function pointer in bucket->irq_info->pre_handler and
the two args bucket->irq_info->pre_handler_arg[12].
The Schizo PCI driver is converted over to use a pre-handler
for the DMA write-sync processing it needs when a device
is behind a PCI->PCI bus deeper than the top-level APB
bridges.
While we're here, clean up all of the action allocation
and handling. Now, we allocate the irqaction as part of
the bucket->irq_info area. There is an array of 4 irqaction
(for PCI irq sharing) and a bitmask saying which entries
are active.
The bucket->irq_info is allocated at build_irq() time, not
at request_irq() time. This simplifies request_irq() and
free_irq() tremendously.
The SMP dynamic IRQ retargetting code got removed in this
change too. It was disabled for a few months now, and we
can resurrect it in the future if we want.

The following patch adds some ioctls to include/linux/compat_ioctl.h
to allow using ppdev from the 32 bit user space on sparc64.
This patch also adds the PPDEV option in the sparc64 menu, near Parallel
printer support in the 'General machine setup' submenu.
All those ioctls seem to be compatible, since (correct me if I'm wrong)
they dont use the 'long' type. See include/linux/ppdev.h.
The application I used to test the new ioctls only used the following:
PPEXCL
PPCLAIM
PPNEGOT
PPGETMODES
PPRCONTROL
PPWCONTROL
PPDATADIR
PPWDATA
PPRDATA
But I beleive that the other ioctls will work fine.

The dynamic pci id logic has been bothering me for a while, and now that
I started to look into how to move some of this to the driver core, I
thought it was time to clean it all up.
It ends up making the code smaller, and easier to follow, and fixes a
few bugs at the same time (dynamic ids were not being matched
everywhere, and so could be missed on some call paths for new devices,
semaphore not needed to be grabbed when adding a new id and calling the
driver core, etc.)
I also renamed the function pci_match_device() to pci_match_id() as
that's what it really does.

This patch increases the number of resource pointers in the
pci_bus structure. This is needed to store >4 resource ranges
for host bridges and transparent PCI bridges. With this change,
all PCI buses will have more resource pointers, but most PCI
buses will only use the first 3 or 4, the remaining being NULL.
The PCI core already deals with this correctly.

The hvlpevent_queue (formally ItLpQueue) has a member called xInUseWord
which is used for serialising access to the queue. Because it's a word
(ie. 32 bit) there's a custom 32-bit version of test_and_set_bit() or
thereabouts in ItLpQueue.c.
The xInUseWord is not shared with they hypervisor, so we can replace it
with a spinlock and remove the custom code.
There is also another locking mechanism (ItLpQueueInProcess). This is
redundant because it's only manipulated while the lock's held. Remove it.
