Recently, it's argued that what proc/pid/maps shows is ugly when a 32bit binary runs on 64bit host. /proc/pid/maps outputs vma's pgoff member but vma->pgoff is of no use information is the vma is for ANON. With this patch, /proc/pid/maps shows just 0 if no file backing store.

Add /proc entries to give the admin the ability to control the minimum and maximum number of pdflush threads. This allows finer control of pdflush on both large and small machines. The rationale is simply one size does not fit all. Admins on large and/or small systems may want to tune the min/max pdflush thread count to best suit their needs. Right now the min/max is hardcoded to 2/8. While probably a fair estimate for smaller machines, large machines with large numbers of CPUs and large numbers of filesystems/block devices may benefit from larger numbers of threads working on different block devices. Even if the background flushing algorithm is radically changed, it is still likely that multiple threads will be involved and admins would still desire finer control on the min/max other than to have to recompile the kernel. The patch adds '/proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads_min' and '/proc/sys/vm/nr_pdflush_threads_max' with r/w permissions. The minimum value for nr_pdflush_threads_min is 1 and the maximum value is the current value of nr_pdflush_threads_max. This minimum is required since additional thread creation is performed in a pdflush thread itself. The minimum value for nr_pdflush_threads_max is the current value of nr_pdflush_threads_min and the maximum value can be 1000. Documentation/sysctl/vm.txt is also updated.

Fix a race on creating pdflush threads. Without the patch, it is possible to create more than MAX_PDFLUSH_THREADS threads, and this has been observed in practice on IO loaded SMP machines. The fix involves moving the lock around to protect the check against the thread count and correctly dealing with thread creation failure. This fix also _mostly_ repairs a race condition on how quickly the threads are created. The original intent was to create a pdflush thread (up to the max allowed) every second. Without this patch is is possible to create NCPUS pdflush threads concurrently. The 'mostly' caveat is because an assumption is made that thread creation will be successful. If we fail to create the thread, the miss is not considered fatal.

This reverts commit 9cb610d8. This was an impressively stupid patch. Firstly, we reset the SHF_ALLOC flag lower down in the same function, so the patch was useless. Even better, find_sec() ignores sections with SHF_ALLOC not set, so it breaks CONFIG_MODVERSIONS=y with CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_LOAD=n, which refuses to load the module since it can't find the __versions section.

This fixes a problem reported by Sean MacLennan where loading any module would cause an oops. We weren't marking the pages containing the module text as having hardware execute permission, due to a bug introduced in commit 8d1cf34e ("powerpc/mm: Tweak PTE bit combination definitions"), hence trying to execute the module text caused an exception on processors that support hardware execute permission. This adds _PAGE_HWEXEC to the definitions of PAGE_KERNEL_X and PAGE_KERNEL_ROX to fix this problem.

The ptrace compat wrapper mishandles access to the fpu registers. The PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR requests miscalculate the index into the fpr array due to the broken FPINDEX macro. The PPC_PTRACE_PEEKUSR_3264 request needs to use the same formula that the native ptrace interface uses when operating on the register number (as opposed to the 4-byte offset). The PPC_PTRACE_POKEUSR_3264 request didn't take TS_FPRWIDTH into account.

The irq remapping layer seems to cause some confusion when people see a different irq number in /proc/interrupts vs the one they request in their driver or DTS. So have the irq remapping layer print out a message when we map an irq. The message is only printed the first time the irq is mapped, and it's KERN_DEBUG so most people won't see it.

When we call giveup_fpu, we need to need to turn off VSX for the current process. If we don't, on return to userspace it may execute a VSX instruction before the next FP instruction, and not have its register state refreshed correctly from the thread_struct. Ditto for altivec. This caused a bug where an unaligned lfs or stfs results in fix_alignment calling giveup_fpu so it can use the FPRs (in order to do a single <-> double conversion), and then returning to userspace with FP off but VSX on. Then if a VSX instruction is executed, before another FP instruction, it will proceed without another exception and hence have the incorrect register state for VSX registers 0-31. lfs unaligned <- alignment exception turns FP off but leaves VSX on VSX instruction <- no exception since VSX on, hence we get the wrong VSX register values for VSX registers 0-31, which overlap the FPRs.

The (relatively) new pmac_zilog driver doesn't use the pre-munged IRQ numbers from the macio_dev unlike other macio things, it directly maps it off the OF device-tree. It does that because it can be initialized much earlier than the registration of the macio devices, in order to get a serial console early. Unfortunately, that means that it "misses" some fixups done by the macio layer to work around missing interrupt descriptions in the device-tree of the Wallstreet machines. This patch brings the necessary workaround into the pmac_zilog driver itself to bring it back to working condition.

The buffer passed to the ibm,get-system-parameter RTAS call must be in the RMA. To ensure we pass an address in the RMA use rtas_data_buf for the actual RTAS call and then copy the result to value. We can't just make it static because this can be compiled in as a module. Also add the WDRTAS_SP_SPI_LEN so we don't litter '4' throughout the function.
