Correctly determine the address of an illegal instruction.  The EPCR0 register
holds this value (masked by EPCR0_PC) if the validity bit is set (masked by
EPCR0_V).  So the test as to whether the contents of the register are usable
should be involve checking the _V bit, not the _PC bits.

git commit 54a01510 ("asmlinkage_protect
replaces prevent_tail_call") causes this build failure on s390:

  make: *** [arch/s390/kernel] Error 2

and some other architectures.  The reason is that some architectures add
the "-traditional" flag to the invocation of $(AS), which disables
variadic macro argument support.

So just surround the new define with an #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__ to prevent
any side effects on asm code.

Increase the PNP "number of devices" limit.  We currently use an unsigned
char, which limits us to 256 devices per protocol.  This patch changes that to
an unsigned int.

Not all backends can take advantage of this: we limit ISAPNP to 10 devices in
isapnp_cfg_begin(), and PNPBIOS is limited to 256 devices because the BIOS
interfaces use a one-byte device node number.

But there is no limit on the number of PNPACPI devices we may have.  Large HP
Integrity machines have more than 256, which causes the current "unsigned char
number" to wrap around.  This causes errors like this:

    pnp: PnP ACPI init
    kobject_add failed for 00:00 with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory.

    Call Trace:

     [<a0000001007f2810>] pnpacpi_add_device_handler+0x50/0x80

This patch increases the limit to fix this PNPACPI problem.  It should not
have any adverse effect on ISAPNP or PNPBIOS because their limits are still
enforced in the backends.

Explicitly handle this case by "canceling" the parity check, i.e.  clear the

Extend the /proc/<pid>/cgroup file to include the appropriate hierarchy ID on
each line.

Currently this ID isn't really needed since a hierarchy can be completely
identified by the set of subsystems bound to it, but this is likely to change
in the near future in order to support stateless subsystems and
merging/rebinding of subsystems.  Getting this change into 2.6.25 reduces the
need for an API change later.

It's really a pretty ugly thing to need, and some day it will hopefully
be obviated by teaching gcc about the magic calling conventions for the
low-level system call code, but in the meantime we can at least add big
honking comments about why we need these insane and strange macros.

I took my comments from my version of the macro, but I ended up deciding
to just pick Roland's version of the actual code instead (with his
prettier syntax that uses vararg macros).  Thus the previous two commits
that actually implement it.

Use asmlinkage_protect in sys_io_getevents, because GCC for i386 with
CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n can decide to clobber an argument word on the
stack, i.e. the user struct pt_regs.  Here the problem is not a tail
call, but just the compiler's use of the stack when it inlines and
optimizes the body of the called function.  This seems to avoid it.
Signed-off-by: NRoland McGrath <roland@redhat.com>
Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

The prevent_tail_call() macro works around the problem of the compiler
clobbering argument words on the stack, which for asmlinkage functions
is the caller's (user's) struct pt_regs.  The tail/sibling-call
optimization is not the only way that the compiler can decide to use
stack argument words as scratch space, which we have to prevent.
Other optimizations can do it too.

Until we have new compiler support to make "asmlinkage" binding on the
compiler's own use of the stack argument frame, we have work around all
the manifestations of this issue that crop up.

More cases seem to be prevented by also keeping the incoming argument
variables live at the end of the function.  This makes their original
stack slots attractive places to leave those variables, so the compiler
tends not clobber them for something else.  It's still no guarantee, but
it handles some observed cases that prevent_tail_call() did not.

This patch also resolves hangs on boot:
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/23/263
	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10093

The bug was causing once-in-few-reboots 10-15 sec wait during boot on
certain laptops.

Earlier commit 40d6a146 added
smp_call_function in cpu_idle_wait() to kick cpus that are in tickless
idle.  Looking at cpu_idle_wait code at that time, code seemed to be
over-engineered for a case which is rarely used (while changing idle
handler).

Below is a simplified version of cpu_idle_wait, which just makes a dummy
smp_call_function to all cpus, to make them come out of old idle handler
and start using the new idle handler.  It eliminates code in the idle
loop to handle cpu_idle_wait.
