A typo crept in with commit ea1e847cc202e805769c3c46ba5e5c53714068a1
which defined TI_LOCAL_FLAGS to be the offset of the `flags' field
of struct thread_info, rather than the `local_flags' field. This
fixes it. The typo was pointed out by Guennadi Liakhovetski.Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

This fixes various odd things that missed update together with cpm_uart
platform_device move. Unified resources names, restructurisation, etc.
Also, addressed issue with recent phys/virt translation rework. Being
cache-coherent, CPM2's do alloc_bootmem() for the console stuff, and it was
used to treat console buffer descriptor mapping 1:1 (as in CPM1 case),
which is definitely wrong.Signed-off-by: Vitaly Bordug

for_each_cpu() actually iterates across all possible CPUs. We've had mistakes
in the past where people were using for_each_cpu() where they should have been
iterating across only online or present CPUs. This is inefficient and
possibly buggy.We're renaming for_each_cpu() to for_each_possible_cpu() to avoid this in the
future.This patch replaces for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu.

This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the
powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism. With this,
board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a
macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened
device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine.We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of
_machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants. This commit also
changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at
_machine.Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

32-bit CHRP machines are now supported only in arch/powerpc, as are
all 64-bit PowerPC processors. This means that we don't use
Open Firmware on any platform in arch/ppc any more.This makes PReP support a single-platform option like every other
platform support option in arch/ppc now, thus CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM
is gone from arch/ppc. CONFIG_PPC_PREP is the option that selects
PReP support and is generally what has replaced
CONFIG_PPC_MULTIPLATFORM within arch/ppc._machine is all but dead now, being #defined to 0.
Updated Makefiles, comments and Kconfig options generally to reflect
these changes.Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras

The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no
protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the
chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread:http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2
We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage
classes:"Blocking" chains are always called from a process context
and the callout routines are allowed to sleep;"Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and
the callout routines are not allowed to sleep.We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore
this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking
notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is
really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are
used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for
registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are
explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in
kernel/sys.c.With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain
links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by
entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no
guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The
idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and
blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to
handle these things in their own way.)There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For
atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in
a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a
callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister
entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code
had to be changed to avoid it.)Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use
spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost
entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much
less frequent that calling a chain.Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None
of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.ATOMIC CHAINS

please let us know or submit a patch to fix them. Note that any chain that
gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking
used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems.
(However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be
atomic.)The patch set was written by Alan Stern and Chandra Seetharaman, incorporating
material written by Keith Owens and suggestions from Paul McKenney and Andrew
Morton.[jes@sgi.com: restructure the notifier chain initialization macros]

All of the things needed for 32-bit ARCH=powerpc builds have now
moved to arch/powerpc/kernel, so we don't need to go down into
arch/ppc/kernel any more, and we can remove the CONFIG_PPC_MERGE
conditional from arch/ppc/kernel/Makefile.There were two files still referenced in the merge section of
arch/ppc/kernel/Makefile: ppc-stub.o, depending on CONFIG_KGDB,
and dma-mapping.o, depending on CONFIG_NOT_COHERENT_CACHE. None
of the platforms currently in ARCH=powerpc have caches that
aren't coherent with DMA, but when we do get one we'll move
dma-mapping.c over. As for CONFIG_KGDB, none of the Kconfig
files in the tree define it, so I'll let it languish for now.Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras
