Delay the read of the EC status register until
after the event that caused it occurs -- otherwise
it is possible to read and act on stale status that was
associated with the previous event.

Do this with a perpetually incrementing "event_count" to detect
when a new event occurs and it is safe to read status.

There is no workaround for polling mode -- it is inherently
exposed to reading and acting on stale status, since it
doesn't have an interrupt to tell it the event completed.

This reverts commit 39d61db0.

The commit was buggy in multiple ways:
 - the conversion to ilog2() was incorrect to begin with
 - it tested the wrong #defines, so on all architectures but FRV you'd
   never see the bug except for constant arguments.
 - the new "get_order()" macro used its arguments multiple times, and
   didn't even parenthesize them properly
 - despite the comments, it was not true that you could use it for
   constant initializers, since not all architectures even use the
   generic page.h header file.

All of the problems are individually fixable, but it all boils down to:
better just revert it, and re-do it from scratch.

Based on a patch from Don Howard <dhoward@redhat.com>

When calling write() with a buffer larger than 512 bytes, the
driver's write buffer overflows, allowing to overwrite the EIP and
execute arbitrary code with kernel privileges.

In read(), there exists a similar problem, but coming from the device.
A malicous or buggy device sending more than 512 bytes can overflow
of the driver's read buffer, with the same effects as above.

Suspend deadlocks when trying to unregister /sys/block/sr0.

This comes from Oliver's commit 94bebf4d
"Driver core: fix race in sysfs between sysfs_remove_file() and
read()/write()".

sysfs_write_file downs buffer->sem while calling flush_write_buffer, and
flushing that particular write buffer entails downing buffer->sem in
orphan_all_buffers, resulting in the obvious self-deadlock.

The address where the ELF core header is stored is passed to the secondary
kernel as a kernel command line option.  The memory area for this header is
also marked as a separate EFI memory descriptor on ia64.

The separate EFI memory descriptor is at the moment of the type
EFI_UNUSABLE_MEMORY.  With such a type the secondary kernel skips over the
entire memory granule (config option, 16M or 64M) when detecting memory.
If we are lucky we will just lose some memory, but if we happen to have
data in the same granule (such as an initramfs image), then this data will
never get mapped and the kernel bombs out when trying to access it.

So this is an attempt to fix this by changing the EFI memory descriptor
type into EFI_LOADER_DATA.  This type is the same type used for the kernel
data and for initramfs.  In the secondary kernel we then handle the ELF
core header data the same way as we handle the initramfs image.

This patch contains the kernel changes to make this happen.  Pretty
straightforward, we reserve the area in reserve_memory().  The address for
the area comes from the kernel command line and the size comes from the
specialized EFI parsing function vmcore_find_descriptor_size().

The kexec-tools-testing code for this can be found here:

Perfmon associates vmalloc()ed memory with a file descriptor, and installs
a vma mapping that memory.  Unfortunately, the vm_file field is not filled
in, so processes with mappings to that memory do not prevent the file from
being closed and the memory freed.  This results in use-after-free bugs and
multiple freeing of pages, etc.

I saw this bug on an Altix on SLES9.  Haven't reproduced upstream but it
looks like the same issue is there.
