x86: fix cmos read and write to not use inb_p and outb_p
fix code to access CMOS rtc registers so that it does not use inb_p and
outb_p routines, which are deprecated. Extensive research on all known
CMOS RTC chipset timing shows that there is no need for a delay in
accessing the registers of these chips even on old machines. These chipa
are never on an expansion bus, but have always been "motherboard"
resources, either in the processor chipset or explicitly on the
motherboard, and they are not part of the ISA/LPC or PCI buses, so
delays should not be based on bus timing. The reason to fix it:
1) port 80 writes often hang some laptops that use ENE EC chipsets,
esp. those designed and manufactured by Quanta for HP;
2) RTC accesses are timing sensitive, and extra microseconds may matter;
3) the new "io_delay" function is calibrated by expansion bus timing needs,
thus is not appropriate for access to CMOS rtc registers.

x86: use ELF section to list CPU vendor specific code
Replace the hardcoded list of initialization functions for each CPU
vendor by a list in an ELF section, which is read at initialization in
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.c to fill the cpu_devs[] array. The ELF
section, named .x86cpuvendor.init, is reclaimed after boot, and
contains entries of type "struct cpu_vendor_dev" which associates a
vendor number with a pointer to a "struct cpu_dev" structure.
This first modification allows to remove all the VENDOR_init_cpu()
functions.
This patch also removes the hardcoded calls to early_init_amd() and
early_init_intel(). Instead, we add a "c_early_init" member to the
cpu_dev structure, which is then called if not NULL by the generic CPU
initialization code. Unfortunately, in early_cpu_detect(), this_cpu is
not yet set, so we have to use the cpu_devs[] array directly.
This patch is part of the Linux Tiny project, and is needed for
further patch that will allow to disable compilation of unused CPU
support code.

x86: do kernel direct mapping at boot using GB pages
The AMD Fam10h CPUs support new Gigabyte page table entry for
mapping 1GB at a time. Use this for the kernel direct mapping.
Only done for 64bit because i386 does not support GB page tables.
This only applies to the data portion of the direct mapping; the
kernel text mapping stays with 2MB pages because the AMD Fam10h
microarchitecture does not support GB ITLBs and AMD recommends
against using GB mappings for code.

These new controls toggle experimental support for a new CPU feature,

Turn it off by default, as this code has not been tested well enough yet.

For the 32-bit kernel it's the vdso_enabled boot parameter/sysctl

When it's disabled, we don't pass AT_SYSINFO_EHDR so processes don't use
the vDSO for anything, but we still map it. For the non-compat vDSO,
this means we're always putting an extra VMA somewhere, maybe lousing
up the control of the address space the user was hoping for.

x86 vDSO: don't use disabled vDSO for signal trampoline
If the vDSO was not mapped, don't use it as the "restorer" for a signal
handler. Whether we have a pointer in mm->context.vdso depends on what
happened at exec time, so we shouldn't check any global flags now.
Background:
Currently, every 32-bit exec gets the vDSO mapped even if it's disabled
(the process just doesn't get told about it). Because it's in fact
always there, the bug that this patch fixes cannot happen now. With
the second patch, it won't be mapped at all when it's disabled, which is
one of the things that people might really want when they disable it (so
nothing they didn't ask for goes into their address space).
The 32-bit signal handler setup when SA_RESTORER is not used refers to
current->mm->context.vdso without regard to whether the vDSO has been
disabled when the process was exec'd. This patch fixes this not to use
it when it's null, which becomes possible after the second patch. (This
never happens in normal use, because glibc's sigaction call uses
SA_RESTORER unless glibc detected the vDSO.)

Fix memory corruption and crash on 32-bit x86 systems.
If a !PAE x86 kernel is booted on a 32-bit system with more than 4GB of
RAM, then we call memory_present() with a start/end that goes outside
the scope of MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS.
That causes this loop to happily walk over the limit of the sparse
memory section map:
for (pfn = start; pfn < end; pfn += PAGES_PER_SECTION) {
unsigned long section = pfn_to_section_nr(pfn);
struct mem_section *ms;
ms = __nr_to_section(section);
if (!ms->section_mem_map)
ms->section_mem_map = sparse_encode_early_nid(nid) |
SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT;
'ms' will be out of bounds and we'll corrupt a small amount of memory by
encoding the node ID and writing SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT (==0x1) over it.
The corruption might happen when encoding a non-zero node ID, or due to
the SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT which is 0x1:
mmzone.h:#define SECTION_MARKED_PRESENT (1UL<<0)
The fix is to sanity check anything the architecture passes to
sparsemem.
This bug seems to be rather old (as old as sparsemem support itself),
but the exact incarnation depended on random details like configs, which
made this bug more prominent in v2.6.25-to-be.
An additional enhancement might be to print a warning about ignored or
trimmed memory ranges.

Fix locking bug in "acquire_console_semaphore_for_printk()"
When I cleaned up printk() and split up the printk locking logic in
commit 266c2e0abeca649fa6667a1a427ad1da507c6375 ("Make printk() console
semaphore accesses sensible") I had incorrectly moved the call to
have_callable_console() outside of the console semaphore.
That was buggy. The console semaphore protects the console_drivers list
that is used by have_callable_console().
Thanks go to Bongani Hlope who saw this as a hang on shutdown and reboot
and bisected the bug to the right commit, and tested this patch. See

netconsole: only set CON_PRINTBUFFER if the user specifies a netconsole
Since 0bcc1816188e570bde1d56a208996660f2633ae0 (netconsole: Support
dynamic reconfiguration using configfs), the netconsole is always
registered, regardless of whether the user actually specified a
netconsole configuration on the command line.
However because netconsole has CON_PRINTBUFFER set, when it is
registered it causes the printk buffer to be replayed to all consoles.
When there is no netconsole configured this is a) pointless, and b)
somewhat annoying for the user of the existing console.
So instead we should only set CON_PRINTBUFFER if there is a netconsole
configuration found on the command line. This retains the existing
behaviour if a netconsole is setup by the user, and avoids spamming
other consoles when we're only registering for the dynamic
netconsole case.
