Only 1GB-aligned kernel/user splits are now handled for PAE. The
2GB/2GB split attempts to avoid aliasing vmallocspace with the 1:1
mapping for physical memory by using an actual split of 1.875/2.125
to accommodate 128MB of vmallocspace out of what would otherwise
be a full 2GB for userspace. That attempt disturbs the alignment
required by PAE for 2GB/2GB splits, and furthermore does not provide
a 2GB/2GB split as advertised.

This patch resolves the issues here in two manners. The first is
by providing a true 2GB/2GB split in addition to the 1.875/2.125
split. The second is by renaming the 1.875/2.125 split to
CONFIG_VMSPLIT_2G_OPT analogously to CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G_OPT, which
performs a similar manuever to avoid aliasing vmallocspace with
the 1:1 mapping for physical memory around the 3GB boundary. With
the 1.875/2.125 split properly-named, its config option is then
tagged as depending on !HIGHMEM to express the PAE implementation's
current inability to deal with such unaligned splits.

This patch is essentially a combination of two patches, one written
by Eric Biederman and the other by Eric Dumazet. If they could add
their Signed-off-by: to this, I'd be much obliged.

Define a new IGNORE_IOCTL() to let a compat ioctl not be warned about even when
it is not implemented.

This is the same as COMPATIBLE_IOCTL internally, but better self documentng.

Valid reasons to use this:
- It is implemented with ->compat_ioctl on some device, but programs
  call it on others too.
- The ioctl is not implemented in the native kernel, but programs
  call it commonly anyways.
Most other reasons are not valid.

Background:
 We've found that MCEs (specifically DRAM SBEs) tend to come in bunches,
 especially when we are trying really hard to stress the system out.  The
 current MCE poller uses a static interval which does not care whether it
 has or has not found MCEs recently.

Description:
 This patch makes the MCE poller adjust the polling interval dynamically.
 If we find an MCE, poll 2x faster (down to 10 ms).  When we stop finding
 MCEs, poll 2x slower (up to check_interval seconds).  The check_interval
 tunable becomes the max polling interval.  The "Machine check events
 logged" printk() is rate limited to the check_interval, which should be
 identical behavior to the old functionality.

Result:
 If you start to take a lot of correctable errors (not exceptions), you
 log them faster and more accurately (less chance of overflowing the MCA
 registers).  If you don't take a lot of errors, you will see no change.

Alternatives:
 I considered simply reducing the polling interval to 10 ms immediately
 and keeping it there as long as we continue to find errors.  This felt a
 bit heavy handed, but does perform significantly better for the default
 check_interval of 5 minutes (we're using a few seconds when testing for
 DRAM errors).  I could be convinced to go with this, if anyone felt it
 was not too aggressive.

Testing:
 I used an error-injecting DIMM to create lots of correctable DRAM errors
 and verified that the polling interval accelerates.  The printk() only
 happens once per check_interval seconds.

Patch:
 This patch is against 2.6.21-rc7.

In situations where page table updates need only be made locally, and there is
no cross-processor A/D bit races involved, we need not use the heavyweight
xchg instruction to atomically fetch and clear page table entries.  Instead,
we can just read and clear them directly.

This introduces a neat optimization for non-SMP kernels; drop the atomic xchg
operations from page table updates.

Thanks to Michel Lespinasse for noting this potential optimization.

When exiting from an address space, no special hypervisor notification of page
table updates needs to occur; direct page table hypervisors, such as Xen,
switch to another address space first (init_mm) and unprotects the page tables
to avoid the cost of trapping to the hypervisor for each pte_clear.  Shadow
mode hypervisors, such as VMI and lhype don't need to do the extra work of
calling through paravirt-ops, and can just directly clear the page table
entries without notifiying the hypervisor, since all the page tables are about
to be freed.

So introduce native_pte_clear functions which bypass any paravirt-ops
notification.  This results in a significant performance win for VMI and
removes some indirect calls from zap_pte_range.

Note the 3-level paging already had a native_pte_clear function, thus
demanding argument conformance and extra args for the 2-level definition.
