[POWERPC] Add -mno-spe for ARCH=powerpc builds
Newer GCC's are capable of autovectorization for ISA extensions like
AltiVec and SPE. If we happen to build with one of those compilers we
will get SPE instructions in random kernel code. Today we only allow
basic interger code in the kernel and FP, AltiVec, or SPE in special
explicit locations that have handled the proper saving and restoring of
the register state (since on uniprocessor we lazy context switch the
register state for FP, AltiVec, and SPE).
-mno-spe disables the compiler for automatically generating SPE
instructions without our knowledge.

[POWERPC] Fix off-by-one error in setting decrementer on Book E/4xx (v2)
The decrementer in Book E and 4xx processors interrupts on the
transition from 1 to 0, rather than on the 0 to -1 transition as on
64-bit server and 32-bit "classic" (6xx/7xx/7xxx) processors. At the
moment we subtract 1 from the count of how many decrementer ticks are
required before the next interrupt before putting it into the
decrementer, which is correct for server/classic processors, but could
possibly cause the interrupt to happen too early on Book E and 4xx if
the timebase/decrementer frequency is low.
This fixes the problem by making set_dec subtract 1 from the count for
server and classic processors, instead of having the callers subtract
1. Since set_dec already had a bunch of ifdefs to handle different
processor types, there is no net increase in ugliness. :)
Note that calling set_dec(0) may not generate an interrupt on some
processors. To make sure that decrementer_set_next_event always calls
set_dec with an interval of at least 1 tick, we set min_delta_ns of
the decrementer_clockevent to correspond to 2 ticks (2 rather than 1
to compensate for truncations in the conversions between ticks and
ns).
This also removes a redundant call to set the decrementer to
0x7fffffff - it was already set to that earlier in timer_interrupt.

We had an historical confusion in the kernel between cache line

the L1 cache which can be useful for performance optimisations,
the later is the actual size on which the cache control
instructions operate, which can be different.
For some reason, we had a weird hack reading the right property
on powermac and the wrong one on any other 64 bits (32 bits is
unaffected as it only uses the cputable for cache block size

[POWERPC] 4xx: Deal with 44x virtually tagged icache

tagged instruction cache (yuck !). So far, we haven't dealt with
it properly, which means we've been mostly lucky or people didn't
report the problems, unless people have been running custom patches
in their distro...
This is an attempt at fixing it properly. I chose to do it by
setting a global flag whenever we change a PTE that was previously
marked executable, and flush the entire instruction cache upon
return to user space when that happens.
This is a bit heavy handed, but it's hard to do more fine grained
flushes as the icbi instruction, on those processor, for some very
strange reasons (since the cache is virtually mapped) still requires
a valid TLB entry for reading in the target address space, which
isn't something I want to deal with.

not work properly, causing among other things, gdb breakpoints
to fail.
This patch adds a "pid" argument to _tlbie() on 4xx processors,

also gets the argument but it seems they don't need it (their
tlbivax form ignores the PID when invalidating according to the

We use a POWER6 "logical PVR approach". First, we identify all EP(x)
and GR(x) processors as GR(x) ones (which is safe). Then we check
the device tree cpu path. If we have a EP(x) processor entry,
we call identify_cpu again with PVR | 0x8. This bit is always 0
in the real PVR. This way we enable FPU only for 440EP(x).

Driver Core: fix bug in device_rename() for SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y
This should fix the sysfs warnings that renaming network devices is
causing to show up with CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y
The code just shouldn't run if class devices are real directories, it's
an update for the symlink in the class directory. Nobody noticed that as
long as the creation of sysfs files silently failed, and we both missed
it before the merge, because we don't run SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y.

kobject: check for duplicate names in kobject_rename
This should catch any duplicate names before we try to tell sysfs to
rename the object. This happens a lot with older versions of udev and
the network rename scripts.

The issue is that the code calls sg_mark_end() which clobbers the
sg_page() pointer of the final scatterlist entry.
The first part fo the fix makes skb_to_sgvec() do __sg_mark_end().
After considering all skb_to_sgvec() call sites the most correct
solution is to call __sg_mark_end() in skb_to_sgvec() since that is
what all of the callers would end up doing anyways.
I suspect this might have fixed some problems in virtio_net which is
the sole non-crypto user of skb_to_sgvec().
Other similar sg_mark_end() cases were converted over to
__sg_mark_end() as well.
Arguably sg_mark_end() is a poorly named function because it doesn't
just "mark", it clears out the page pointer as a side effect, which is
what led to these bugs in the first place.
The one remaining plain sg_mark_end() call is in scsi_alloc_sgtable()
and arguably it could be converted to __sg_mark_end() if only so that
we can delete this confusing interface from linux/scatterlist.h
