      powerpc: Default arch idle could cede processor on pseries · 363edbe2
      Vaidyanathan Srinivasan 提交于
      When adding cpuidle support to pSeries, we introduced two
      regressions:
      
        - The new cpuidle backend driver only works under hypervisors
          supporting the "SLPLAR" option, which isn't the case of the
          old POWER4 hypervisor and the HV "light" used on js2x blades
      
        - The cpuidle driver registers fairly late, meaning that for
          a significant portion of the boot process, we end up having
          all threads spinning. This slows down the boot process and
          increases the overall resource usage if the hypervisor has
          shared processors.
      
      This fixes both by implementing a "default" idle that will cede
      to the hypervisor when possible, in a very simple way without
      all the bells and whisles of cpuidle.

      powerpc: Fix section mismatch warning for prom_rtas_call · 620e5050
      Vladimir Murzin 提交于
      While cross-building for PPC64 I've got
      
      WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x1ba): Section mismatch in
      reference from the function .prom_rtas_call() to the variable
      .init.data:dt_string_start The function .prom_rtas_call() references
      the variable __initdata dt_string_start.  This is often because
      .prom_rtas_call lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of
      dt_string_start is wrong.
      
      WARNING: vmlinux.o(.meminit.text+0xeb0): Section mismatch in reference
      from the function .free_area_init_core.isra.47() to the function
      .init.text:.set_pageblock_order() The function __meminit
      .free_area_init_core.isra.47() references a function __init
      .set_pageblock_order().  If .set_pageblock_order is only used by
      .free_area_init_core.isra.47 then annotate .set_pageblock_order with a
      matching annotation.
      
      Fix it by proper annotation of prom_rtas_call.
