Handling of the proc_dir_entry->count was changed in 2.6.24-rc5.
After this change, the default value for pde->count is 1 and not 0 as
before. Therefore, if we want to check whether our procfs file is
already opened (already in use), we have to check if pde->count is
greater than 2 rather than 1.

A subtle bug sneaked into iSeries recently. On this platform, we must
not normally clear MSR:EE (the hardware external interrupt enable)
except for short periods of time. Taking an interrupt while
soft-disabled doesn't cause us to clear it for example.
The iSeries kernel expects to mostly run with MSR:EE enabled at all
times except in a few exception entry/exit code paths. Thus
local_irq_enable() doesn't check if it needs to hard-enable as it
expects this to be unnecessary on iSeries.
However, hard_irq_disable() _does_ cause MSR:EE to be cleared,
including on iSeries. A call to it was recently added to the
context switch code, thus causing interrupts to become disabled
for a long periods of time, causing the iSeries watchdog to kick
in under some circumstances and other nasty things.
This patch fixes it by making local_irq_enable() properly re-enable
MSR:EE on iSeries. It basically removes a return statement here
to make iSeries use the same code path as everybody else. That does
mean that we might occasionally get spurious decrementer interrupts
but I don't think that matters.
Another option would have been to make hard_irq_disable() a nop
on iSeries but I didn't like it much, in case we have good reasons
to hard-disable.
Part of the patch is fixes to make sure the hard_enabled PACA field
is properly set on iSeries as it used not to be before, since it
was mostly unused.

There is a bug in the powerpc DABR (data access breakpoint) handling,
which can result in us missing breakpoints if several threads are trying
to break on the same address.
The circumstances are that do_page_fault() calls do_dabr(), this clears
the DABR (sets it to 0) and sets up the signal which will report to
userspace that the DABR was hit. The do_signal() code will restore the DABR
value on the way out to userspace.
If we reschedule before calling do_signal(), __switch_to() will check the
cached DABR value and compare it to the new thread's value, if they match
we don't set the DABR in hardware.
So if two threads have the same DABR value, and we schedule from one to
the other after taking the interrupt for the first thread hitting the DABR,
the second thread will run without the DABR set in hardware.
The cleanest fix is to move the cache update into set_dabr(), that way we
can't forget to do it.

Since the PMU is an NMI now, it can come at any time we are only soft
disabled. We must hard disable around the two places we allow the kernel
stack SLB and r1 to go out of sync. Otherwise the PMU exception can
force a kernel stack SLB into another slot, which can lead to it
getting evicted, which can lead to a nasty unrecoverable SLB miss
in the exception entry code.

The PTRACE_SETREGS request was only recently added on powerpc,
and gdb does not use it. So it slipped through without getting
all the testing it should have had.
The user_regset changes had a simple bug in storing to all of
the 32-bit general registers block on 64-bit kernels. This bug
only comes up with PTRACE_SETREGS, not PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS.
It causes a BUG_ON to hit, so this fix needs to go in ASAP.

The empty_zero_page symbol is exported by most other architectures
(s390, ia64, x86, um), and an upcoming ext4 patch needs it because
ZERO_PAGE() references empty_zero_page, and we need it to zero out an
unitialized extents in ext4 files.

A bogus test for unassigned resources that came from our 32-bit
PCI code ended up being "merged" by my previous patch series,
breaking some 64-bit setups where devices have legal resources
ending at 0xffffffff.
This fixes it by completely changing the test. We now test for
res->start == 0, as the generic code expects, and we also only
do so on platforms that don't have the PPC_PCI_PROBE_ONLY flag
set, as there are cases of pSeries and iSeries where it could
be a valid value and those can't reassign devices.

Some drivers (such as V4L2) have code that causes gcc to generate
calls to __ucmpdi2 when compiling for 32-bit powerpc, which results
in either a link-time error or a module that can't be loaded, as
we don't currently have a __ucmpdi2. This adds one so these drivers
can be used.

dt_mem_next_cell() currently does of_read_ulong(). This does not
allow for the case where #size-cells and/or #address-cells = 2 on a

Commit ad7f71674ad7c3c4467e48f6ab9e85516dae2720 ("[POWERPC] Use a
sensible default for clock_getres() in the VDSO") corrected the clock
resolution reported by the VDSO clock_getres() but introduced another
problem in that older versions of gcc (gcc-4.0 and earlier) fail to
compile the new code in arch/powerpc/kernel/asm-offsets.c.
This fixes it by introducing a new MONOTONIC_RES_NSEC define in the

This makes the SPE register data appear in ELF core dumps, using the
new n_type value NT_PPC_SPE (0x101). This new note type is not used
by any consumers of core files yet, but support can be added. I don't
even have any hardware with SPE capabilities, so I've never seen such
a note. But this demonstrates how simple it is to export register
information in core dumps when the user_regset style is used for the
low-level code.

This replaces all the code for powerpc PTRACE_*REGS* requests with
simple calls to copy_regset_from_user and copy_regset_to_user. All
the ptrace formats are either the whole corresponding user_regset

rid of all the remaining embedded knowledge of both those layouts
and of the internal data structures they correspond to. Only the
user_regset accessors need to implement that.

This moves the ability to scale cputime into generic code. This allows us
to fix the issue in kernel/timer.c (noticed by Balbir) where we could only
add an unscaled value to the scaled utime/stime.
This adds a cputime_to_scaled function. As before, the POWERPC version
does the scaling based on the last SPURR/PURR ratio calculated. The
generic and s390 (only other arch to implement asm/cputime.h) versions are
both NOPs.
Also moves the SPURR and PURR snapshots closer.

The patch to legacy_serial.c (1a7507c7da2df6856e085e0fbb0c9ea8c12ac4e,
Reduce code duplication in legacy_serial, add UART parent types) changed
the semantics for opb ports from type = "opb" || compatible = "ibm,opb"
to type = "opb" && compatible = "ibm,opb".
The result is serial ports on our QS21s (Cell blades) don't get found,
and for some reason the machine doesn't boot at all - possibly it's
panicking due to lack of a console?
The fix is to add two entries to the of_device_id table, one that looks
for type = "opb" and the other compatible = "ibm,opb".
