powerpc: Make create_branch() return errors if the branch target is too large
If you pass a target value to create_branch() which is more than 32MB - 4,
or - 32MB away from the branch site, then it's impossible to create an
immediate branch. The current code doesn't check, which will lead to us
creating a branch to somewhere else - which is bad.
For code that cares to check we return 0, which is easy to check for, and
for code that doesn't at least we'll be creating an illegal instruction,
rather than a branch to some random address.

powerpc: Allow create_branch() to return errors
Currently create_branch() creates a branch instruction for you, and
patches it into the call site. In some circumstances it would be nice
to be able to create the instruction and patch it later, and also some
code might want to check for errors in the branch creation before
doing the patching. A future commit will change create_branch() to
check for errors.
For callers that don't care, replace create_branch() with
patch_branch(), which just creates the branch and patches it directly.
While we're touching all the callers, change to using unsigned int *,
as this seems to match usage better. That allows (and requires) us to
remove the volatile in the definition of vector in powermac/smp.c and
mpc86xx_smp.c, that's correct because now that we're passing vector as
an unsigned int * the compiler knows that it's value might change
across the patch_branch() call.

drivers/macintosh/smu.c: Improve error handling
This makes two changes:
* As noted by Akinobu Mita in patch b1fceac2b9e04d278316b2faddf276015fc06e3b, alloc_bootmem never returns NULL
and always returns a zeroed region of memory. Thus the error checking code
and memset after the call to alloc_bootmem are not necessary.
* The old error handling code consisted of setting a global variable to
NULL and returning an error code, which could cause previously allocated

the performance of HPC programs that access eHCA from userspace.
With this patch, the kernel will only demote the slice(s) containing
the eHCA or cache-inhibited mappings, leaving the remaining slices
able to use 64kB hardware pages.
This also changes the slice_get_unmapped_area code so that it is

MAP_FIXED or if there is not sufficient space available in slices that

V4L/DVB (8108): Fix open/close race in saa7134
The saa7134 driver uses a (non-atomic) variable in an attempt to
only allow one opener of the device (how it deals with sending
the fd over unix sockets I don't know).
Unfortunately, the release function first decrements this variable,
and THEN goes on to disable more of the device. This allows for
a race where another opener of the device comes in after the decrement of
the variable, configures the hardware just to then see the hardware
be disabled by the rest of the release function.
This patch makes the release function use the same lock as the open
function to protect the hardware as well as the variable (which now
at least has some locking to protect it).

powerpc/kprobes: Some minor fixes
* Mark __flush_icache_range as a function that can't be probed since its
used by the kprobe code.
* Fix an issue with single stepping and async exceptions. We need to
ensure that we dont get an async exception (external, decrementer, etc)
while we are attempting to single step the probe point.
Added a check to ensure we only handle a single step if its really
intended for the instruction in question.

powerpc/e500mc: flush L2 on NAP for e500mc
If we have an L2CSR register (e500mc) we need to flush the L2 before going
to nap. We use the HW flush mechanism provided in that register.
The code reuses the CPU_FTR_604_PERF_MON bit as it is no longer used by
any code in the kernel. Additionally we didn't reuse the exist L2CR
feature bit as this is intended for the 7xxx L2CR register and L2CSR
is part of the new Freescale "Book-E" registers.
