      driver-core: remove sysdev.h usage. · edbaa603
      Kay Sievers authored 
      
The sysdev.h file should not be needed by any in-kernel code, so remove
the .h file from these random files that seem to still want to include
it.

The sysdev code will be going away soon, so this include needs to be
removed no matter what.

      x86, efi: Make efi_call_phys_{prelog,epilog} CONFIG_RELOCATABLE-aware · 6d3e32e6
      Matt Fleming authored 
      
efi_call_phys_prelog() sets up a 1:1 mapping of the physical address
range in swapper_pg_dir. Instead of replacing then restoring entries
in swapper_pg_dir we should be using initial_page_table which already
contains the 1:1 mapping.

It's safe to blindly switch back to swapper_pg_dir in the epilog
because the physical EFI routines are only called before
efi_enter_virtual_mode(), e.g. before any user processes have been
forked. Therefore, we don't need to track which pgd was in %cr3 when
we entered the prelog.

The previous code actually contained a bug because it assumed that the
kernel was loaded at a physical address within the first 8MB of ram,
usually at 0x100000. However, this isn't the case with a
CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y kernel which could have been loaded anywhere in
the physical address space.

Also delete the ancient (and bogus) comments about the page table
being restored after the lock is released. There is no locking.

      x86, efi: Calling __pa() with an ioremap()ed address is invalid · e8c71062
      Matt Fleming authored 
      If we encounter an efi_memory_desc_t without EFI_MEMORY_WB set
in ->attribute we currently call set_memory_uc(), which in turn
calls __pa() on a potentially ioremap'd address.

On CONFIG_X86_32 this is invalid, resulting in the following
oops on some machines:

  BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at f7f22280
  IP: [<c10257b9>] reserve_ram_pages_type+0x89/0x210
  [...]

  Call Trace:
   [<c104f8ca>] ? page_is_ram+0x1a/0x40
   [<c1025aff>] reserve_memtype+0xdf/0x2f0
   [<c1024dc9>] set_memory_uc+0x49/0xa0
   [<c19334d0>] efi_enter_virtual_mode+0x1c2/0x3aa
   [<c19216d4>] start_kernel+0x291/0x2f2
   [<c19211c7>] ? loglevel+0x1b/0x1b
   [<c19210bf>] i386_start_kernel+0xbf/0xc8

A better approach to this problem is to map the memory region
with the correct attributes from the start, instead of modifying
it after the fact. The uncached case can be handled by
ioremap_nocache() and the cached by ioremap_cache().

Despite first impressions, it's not possible to use
ioremap_cache() to map all cached memory regions on
CONFIG_X86_64 because EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA regions really
don't like being mapped into the vmalloc space, as detailed in
the following bug report,

	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=748516



Therefore, we need to ensure that any EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_DATA
regions are covered by the direct kernel mapping table on
CONFIG_X86_64. To accomplish this we now map E820_RESERVED_EFI
regions via the direct kernel mapping with the initial call to
init_memory_mapping() in setup_arch(), whereas previously these
regions wouldn't be mapped if they were after the last E820_RAM
region until efi_ioremap() was called. Doing it this way allows
us to delete efi_ioremap() completely.

      x86: efi_32.c is implicitly getting asm/desc.h via module.h · 783ac47c
      Paul Gortmaker authored 
      
We want to clean up the chain of includes stumbling through
module.h, and when we do that, we'll see:

  make[4]: *** [arch/x86/platform/efi/efi_32.o] Error 1

Include asm/desc.h so that there are no implicit include assumptions.

      x86: Fix files explicitly requiring export.h for EXPORT_SYMBOL/THIS_MODULE · 69c60c88
      Paul Gortmaker authored 
      
These files were implicitly getting EXPORT_SYMBOL via device.h
which was including module.h, but that will be fixed up shortly.

By fixing these now, we can avoid seeing things like:

arch/x86/kernel/rtc.c:29: warning: type defaults to ‘int’ in declaration of ‘EXPORT_SYMBOL’
arch/x86/kernel/pci-dma.c:20: warning: type defaults to ‘int’ in declaration of ‘EXPORT_SYMBOL’

      x86/rtc: Don't recursively acquire rtc_lock · 47997d75
      Matt Fleming authored 
      
A deadlock was introduced on x86 in commit ef68c8f8 ("x86:
Serialize EFI time accesses on rtc_lock") because efi_get_time()
and friends can be called with rtc_lock already held by
read_persistent_time(), e.g.:

 timekeeping_init()
    read_persistent_clock()     <-- acquire rtc_lock
        efi_get_time()
            phys_efi_get_time() <-- acquire rtc_lock <DEADLOCK>

To fix this let's push the locking down into the get_wallclock()
and set_wallclock() implementations.  Only the clock
implementations that access the x86 RTC directly need to acquire
rtc_lock, so it makes sense to push the locking down into the
rtc, vrtc and efi code.

The virtualization implementations don't require rtc_lock to be
held because they provide their own serialization.

      x86: uv2: Workaround for UV2 Hub bug (system global address format) · 6a469e46
      Jack Steiner authored 
      
This is a workaround for a UV2 hub bug that affects the format of system
global addresses.

The GRU API for UV2 was inadvertently broken by a hardware change.  The
format of the physical address used for TLB dropins and for addresses used
with instructions running in unmapped mode has changed.  This change was
not documented and became apparent only when diags failed running on
system simulators.

For UV1, TLB and GRU instruction physical addresses are identical to
socket physical addresses (although high NASID bits must be OR'ed into the
address).

For UV2, socket physical addresses need to be converted.  The NODE portion
of the physical address needs to be shifted so that the low bit is in bit
39 or bit 40, depending on an MMR value.

It is not yet clear if this bug will be fixed in a silicon respin.  If it
is fixed, the hub revision will be incremented & the workaround disabled.

      x86: geode: New PCEngines Alix system driver · d4f3e350
      Ed Wildgoose authored 
      
This new driver replaces the old PCEngines Alix 2/3 LED driver with a
new driver that controls the LEDs through the leds-gpio driver. The
old driver accessed GPIOs directly, which created a conflict and
prevented also loading the cs5535-gpio driver to read other GPIOs on
the Alix board. With this new driver, we hook into leds-gpio which in
turn uses GPIO to control the LEDs and therefore it's possible to
control both the LEDs and access onboard GPIOs

Driver is moved to platform/geode as requested by Grant and any other
geode initialisation modules should move here also

This driver is inspired by leds-net5501.c by Alessandro Zummo.

Ideally, leds-net5501.c should also be moved to platform/geode. 
Additionally the driver relies on parts of the patch: 7f131cf3 ("leds:
leds-alix2c - take port address from MSR) by Daniel Mack to perform
detection of the Alix board.
