The recent vDSO consolidation patches broke powerpc due to a mistake
in the definition of MAXPAGES constants. This fixes it by moving to
a dynamically allocated array of pages instead as I don't like much
hard coded size limits. Also move the vdso initialisation to an initcall
since it doesn't really need to be done -that- early.
Applogies for not catching the breakage earlier, Roland _did_ CC me on
his patches a while ago, I got busy with other things and forgot to test
them.

[POWERPC] Virtual DMA support for floppy driver for new powerpc architecture
During ppc64+ppc merge virtual DMA code for floppy driver was not
ported. This patch restores virtual DMA support for floppy in new
powerpc target.
It is necessary at least on Pegasos and AmigaOne machines for the
floppy drive to function. ISA DMA controller works incorrectly there
due to its addressing limitations.
Virtual DMA mode is activated by floppy=nodma option passed to the
kernel (or module). There's no automatic switch like on i386.

[PATCH] hotplug: Allow modules to use the cpu hotplug notifiers even if !CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
The following patchset allows a host with running virtual machines to be
suspended and, on at least a subset of the machines tested, resumed. Note
that this is orthogonal to suspending and resuming an individual guest to a
file.
A side effect of implementing suspend/resume is that cpu hotplug is now
supported. This should please the owners of big iron.
This patch:
KVM wants the cpu hotplug notifications, both for cpu hotplug itself, but more
commonly for host suspend/resume.
In order to avoid extensive #ifdefs, provide stubs when CONFIG_CPU_HOTPLUG is
not defined.
In all, we have four cases:
- UP: register and unregister stubbed out
- SMP+hotplug: full register and unregister
- SMP, no hotplug, core: register as __init, unregister stubbed
(cpus are brought up during core initialization)
- SMP, no hotplug, module: register and unregister stubbed out
(cpus cannot be brought up during module lifetime)

vcpu_load() can return NULL and it sometimes does in failure paths (for
example when the userspace ABI version is too old) - causing a preemption
count underflow in the ->vcpu_free() later on. So check for NULL.

[PATCH] kvm: Two-way apic tpr synchronization
We report the value of cr8 to userspace on an exit. Also let userspace change
cr8 when we re-enter the guest. The lets 64-bit guest code maintain the tpr
correctly.
Thanks for Yaniv Kamay for the idea.

The kvm mmu relies on cr0.wp being set even if the guest does not set it. The
vmx code correctly forces cr0.wp at all times, the svm code does not, so it
can't boot solaris without this patch.

[PATCH] kvm: optimize inline assembly
Forms like "0(%rsp)" generate an instruction with an unnecessary one byte
displacement under certain circumstances. replace with the equivalent
"(%rsp)".
