Add ADI (Application Data Integrity) capability to cpu capabilities list.
ADI capability allows virtual addresses to be encoded with a tag in
bits 63-60. This tag serves as an access control key for the regions
of virtual address with ADI enabled and a key set on them. Hypervisor
encodes this capability as "adp" in "hwcap-list" property in machine
description.

sparc: Resolve conflict between sparc v9 and M7 on usage of bit 9 of TTE
Bit 9 of TTE is CV (Cacheable in V-cache) on sparc v9 processor while
the same bit 9 is MCDE (Memory Corruption Detection Enable) on M7
processor. This creates a conflicting usage of the same bit. Kernel
sets TTE.cv bit on all pages for sun4v architecture which works well
for sparc v9 but enables memory corruption detection on M7 processor
which is not the intent. This patch adds code to determine if kernel
is running on M7 processor and takes steps to not enable memory
corruption detection in TTE erroneously.

Meelis Roos reported that kernels built with gcc-4.9 do not boot, we
eventually narrowed this down to only impacting machines using
UltraSPARC-III and derivitive cpus.
The crash happens right when the first user process is spawned:

Further investigation showed that compiling only per_cpu_patch() with
an older compiler fixes the boot.
Detailed analysis showed that the function is not being miscompiled by
gcc-4.9, but it is using a different register allocation ordering.
With the gcc-4.9 compiled function, something during the code patching
causes some of the %i* input registers to get corrupted. Perhaps
we have a TLB miss path into the firmware that is deep enough to
cause a register window spill and subsequent restore when we get
back from the TLB miss trap.
Let's plug this up by doing two things:
1) Stop using the firmware stack for client interface calls into
the firmware. Just use the kernel's stack.
2) As soon as we can, call into a new function "start_early_boot()"
to put a one-register-window buffer between the firmware's
deepest stack frame and the top-most initial kernel one.

The "mem" boot option can result in many unexpected consequences. This patch
attempts to prevent boot hangs which have been experienced on T4-4 and T5-8.
Basically the boot loader allocates vmlinuz and initrd higher in available
OBP physical memory. For example, on a 2Tb T5-8 it isn't possible to boot
with mem=20G.
The patch utilizes memblock to avoid reserved regions and trim memory which
is only free. Other improvements are possible for a multi-node machine.
This is a snippet of the boot log with mem=20G on T5-8 with the patch applied:

Compare and branch, pause, and the various new cryptographic opcodes.
We advertise the crypto opcodes to userspace using one hwcap bit,
HWCAP_SPARC_CRYPTO.
This essentially indicates that the %cfr register can be interrograted
and used to determine exactly which crypto opcodes are available on
the current cpu.
We use the %cfr register to report all of the crypto opcodes available
in the bootup CPU caps log message, and via /proc/cpuinfo.

If "-p" is given on the command line, clear the CON_BOOT
flag for the initial early boot PROM console.
This is necessary to try and see crash messages that occur
between the registry of the VT console and the probing of
the first framebuffer or serial console. During this time
no console messages are emitted because the VT console
registry (even if no backend is registered to it) removes
the early console if CON_BOOT is set.

Instead of evaluating the cpu features for ELF_HWCAP every exec,
calculate it once at boot time.
Add AV_SPARC_* capability flag bits, compatible with what Solaris
reports to applications.
Report these capabilities once in the kernel log, and also via
/proc/cpuinfo in a new "cpucaps" entry.
If available, fetch the cpu features from the machine description
'hwcap-list' property of the 'cpu' node.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Many years ago when this driver was written, it had a use, but these
days it's nothing but trouble and distributions should not enable it
in any situation.
Pretty much every console device a sparc machine could see has a
bonafide real driver, making the PROM console hack unnecessary.
If any new device shows up, we should write a driver instead of
depending upon this crutch to save us. We've been able to take care
of this even when no chip documentation exists (sunxvr500, sunxvr2500)
so there are no excuses.
