Reboot hangs on LPARs without diag308 support. The reason for this is,
that before the reboot is done, the channel subsystem is shut down.
During the reset on each possible subchannel a "store subchannel" is
done. This operation can end in a program check interruption, if the
specified subchannel set is not implemented by the hardware. During
the reset, currently we do not have a program check handler, which
leads to the described kernel bug. We install now a new program check
handler for the reboot code to fix this problem.

Currently in SCTP, we maintain a local address list by rebuilding the whole
list from the device list whenever we get a address add/delete event.

This patch fixes it by only adding/deleting the address for which we
receive the event.

Also removed the sctp_local_addr_lock() which is no longer needed as we
now use list_for_each_safe() to traverse this list. This fixes the bugs
in sctp_copy_laddrs_xxx() routines where we do copy_to_user() while

 optimization

The gcc manual says:

|`-fdelete-null-pointer-checks'
|     Use global dataflow analysis to identify and eliminate useless
|     checks for null pointers.  The compiler assumes that dereferencing
|     a null pointer would have halted the program.  If a pointer is
|     checked after it has already been dereferenced, it cannot be null.
|     Enabled at levels `-O2', `-O3', `-Os'.

Now the problem can be seen with this test case:

#include <linux/prefetch.h>
extern void bar(char *x);
void foo(char *x)
{
	prefetch(x);
	if (x)
		bar(x);
}

Because the constraint to the inline asm used in the prefetch() macro is
a memory operand, gcc assumes that the asm code does dereference the
pointer and the delete-null-pointer-checks optimization kicks in.
Inspection of generated assembly for the above example shows that bar()
is indeed called unconditionally without any test on the value of x.

Of course in the prefetch case there is no real dereference and it
cannot be assumed that a null pointer would have been caught at that
point. This causes kernel oopses with constructs like
hlist_for_each_entry() where the list's 'next' content is prefetched
before the pointer is tested against NULL, and only when gcc feels like
applying this optimization which doesn't happen all the time with more
complex code.

It appears that the way to prevent delete-null-pointer-checks
optimization to occur in this case is to make prefetch() into a static
inline function instead of a macro. At least this is what is done on
x86_64 where a similar inline asm memory operand is used (I presume they
would have seen the same problem if it didn't work) and resulting code
for the above example confirms that.

An alternative would consist of replacing the memory operand by a
register operand containing the pointer, and use the addressing mode
explicitly in the asm template. But that would be less optimal than an
offsettable memory reference.

Problem:

1. There is a process containing two thread (T1 and T2).  The
   thread T1 calls fork().  Then dup_mmap() function called on T1 context.

static inline int dup_mmap(struct mm_struct *mm, struct mm_struct *oldmm)
	...
	flush_cache_mm(current->mm);
	...	/* A */
	(write-protect all Copy-On-Write pages)
	...	/* B */
	flush_tlb_mm(current->mm);
	...

2. When preemption happens between A and B (or on SMP kernel), the
   thread T2 can run and modify data on COW pages without page fault
   (modified data will stay in cache).

3. Some time after fork() completed, the thread T2 may cause a page
   fault by write-protect on a COW page.

4. Then data of the COW page will be copied to newly allocated
   physical page (copy_cow_page()).  It reads data via kernel mapping.
   The kernel mapping can have different 'color' with user space
   mapping of the thread T2 (dcache aliasing).  Therefore
   copy_cow_page() will copy stale data.  Then the modified data in
   cache will be lost.

In order to allow architecture code to deal with this problem allow
architecture code to override copy_user_highpage() by defining
__HAVE_ARCH_COPY_USER_HIGHPAGE in <asm/page.h>.

Implement block device specific .direct_IO method instead of going through
generic direct_io_worker for block device.

direct_io_worker() is fairly complex because it needs to handle O_DIRECT on
file system, where it needs to perform block allocation, hole detection,
extents file on write, and tons of other corner cases.  The end result is
that it takes tons of CPU time to submit an I/O.

For block device, the block allocation is much simpler and a tight triple
loop can be written to iterate each iovec and each page within the iovec in
order to construct/prepare bio structure and then subsequently submit it to
the block layer.  This significantly speeds up O_D on block device.

Currently, to tell a task that it should go to the refrigerator, we set the
PF_FREEZE flag for it and send a fake signal to it.  Unfortunately there
are two SMP-related problems with this approach.  First, a task running on
another CPU may be updating its flags while the freezer attempts to set
PF_FREEZE for it and this may leave the task's flags in an inconsistent
state.  Second, there is a potential race between freeze_process() and
refrigerator() in which freeze_process() running on one CPU is reading a
task's PF_FREEZE flag while refrigerator() running on another CPU has just
set PF_FROZEN for the same task and attempts to reset PF_FREEZE for it.  If
the refrigerator wins the race, freeze_process() will state that PF_FREEZE
hasn't been set for the task and will set it unnecessarily, so the task
will go to the refrigerator once again after it's been thawed.

To solve first of these problems we need to stop using PF_FREEZE to tell
tasks that they should go to the refrigerator.  Instead, we can introduce a
special TIF_*** flag and use it for this purpose, since it is allowed to
change the other tasks' TIF_*** flags and there are special calls for it.

To avoid the freeze_process()-refrigerator() race we can make
freeze_process() to always check the task's PF_FROZEN flag after it's read
its "freeze" flag.  We should also make sure that refrigerator() will
always reset the task's "freeze" flag after it's set PF_FROZEN for it.
