Module edac_core.ko uses call_rcu() callbacks in edac_device.c, edac_mc.c

They all use a wait_for_completion() scheme, but this scheme it not 100%

explains why extra precausion is needed.

The patch adds a comment about rcu_barrier() and as a precausion calls
rcu_barrier().  A maintainer needs to look at removing the

Add support for the Freescale MPC83xx memory controller to the existing
driver for the Freescale MPC85xx memory controller.  The only difference
between the two processors are in the CS_BNDS register parsing code, which
has been changed so it will work on both processors.

The L2 cache controller does not exist on the MPC83xx, but the OF
subsystem will not use the driver if the device is not present in the OF
device tree.

I had to change the nr_pages calculation to make the math work out.  I
checked it on my board and did the math by hand for a 64GB 85xx using 64K

The periodic interrupt from drivers/char/hpet.c does not work correctly,
both when using the periodic capability of the hardware and while
emulating the periodic interrupt (when hardware does not support periodic
mode).

With timers capable of periodic interrupts, the comparator field is first
set with the period value followed by set of hidden accumulator, which has
the side effect of overwriting the comparator value.  This results in
wrong periodicity for the interrupts.  For, periodic interrupts to work,
following steps are necessary, in that order.

* Set config with Tn_VAL_SET_CNF bit

* Write to hidden accumulator, the value written is the time when the
  first interrupt should be generated

* Write compartor with period interval for subsequent interrupts
  (http://www.intel.com/hardwaredesign/hpetspec_1.pdf )

When emulating periodic timer with timers not capable of periodic
interrupt, driver is adding the period to counter value instead of
comparator value, which causes slow drift when using this emulation.

Also, driver seems to add hpetp->hp_delta both while setting up periodic
interrupt and while emulating periodic interrupts with timers not capable
of doing periodic interrupts.  This hp_delta will result in slower than
expected interrupt rate and should not be used while setting the interval.

Ignore the loader's PT_GNU_STACK when calculating the stack size, and only
consider the executable's PT_GNU_STACK, assuming the executable has one.

Currently the behaviour is to take the largest stack size and use that,
but that means you can't reduce the stack size in the executable.  The
loader's stack size should probably only be used when executing the loader
directly.

WARNING: This patch is slightly dangerous - it may render a system
inoperable if the loader's stack size is larger than that of important
executables, and the system relies unknowingly on this increasing the size
of the stack.

In order to direct the SIGIO signal to a particular thread of a
multi-threaded application we cannot, like suggested by the manpage, put a
TID into the regular fcntl(F_SETOWN) call.  It will still be send to the
whole process of which that thread is part.

Since people do want to properly direct SIGIO we introduce F_SETOWN_EX.

The need to direct SIGIO comes from self-monitoring profiling such as with
perf-counters.  Perf-counters uses SIGIO to notify that new sample data is
available.  If the signal is delivered to the same task that generated the
new sample it can augment that data by inspecting the task's user-space
state right after it returns from the kernel.  This is esp.  convenient
for interpreted or virtual machine driven environments.

Both F_SETOWN_EX and F_GETOWN_EX take a pointer to a struct f_owner_ex
as argument:

struct f_owner_ex {
	int   type;
	pid_t pid;
};

Where type is one of F_OWNER_TID, F_OWNER_PID or F_OWNER_GID.

we have sigio_perm() which uses the right creds to check.

Allow core_pattern pipes to wait for user space to complete

One of the things that user space processes like to do is look at metadata
for a crashing process in their /proc/<pid> directory.  this is racy
however, since do_coredump in the kernel doesn't wait for the user space
process to complete before it reaps the crashing process.  This patch
corrects that.  Allowing the kernel to wait for the user space process to
complete before cleaning up the crashing process.  This is a bit tricky to
do for a few reasons:

1) The user space process isn't our child, so we can't sys_wait4 on it
2) We need to close the pipe before waiting for the user process to complete,
since the user process may rely on an EOF condition

I've discussed several solutions with Oleg Nesterov off-list about this,
and this is the one we've come up with.  We add ourselves as a pipe reader
(to prevent premature cleanup of the pipe_inode_info), and remove
ourselves as a writer (to provide an EOF condition to the writer in user
space), then we iterate until the user space process exits (which we
detect by pipe->readers == 1, hence the > 1 check in the loop).  When we
exit the loop, we restore the proper reader/writer values, then we return
and let filp_close in do_coredump clean up the pipe data properly.

Introduce core pipe limiting sysctl.

Since we can dump cores to pipe, rather than directly to the filesystem,
we create a condition in which a user can create a very high load on the
system simply by running bad applications.

If the pipe reader specified in core_pattern is poorly written, we can
have lots of ourstandig resources and processes in the system.

This sysctl introduces an ability to limit that resource consumption.
core_pipe_limit defines how many in-flight dumps may be run in parallel,
dumps beyond this value are skipped and a note is made in the kernel log.
A special value of 0 in core_pipe_limit denotes unlimited core dumps may
be handled (this is the default value).

Change how we detect recursive dumps.

Currently we have a mechanism by which we try to compare pathnames of the
crashing process to the core_pattern path.  This is broken for a dozen
reasons, and just doesn't work in any sort of robust way.

I'm replacing it with the use of a 0 RLIMIT_CORE value.  Since helper apps
set RLIMIT_CORE to zero, we don't write out core files for any process
with that particular limit set.  It the core_pattern is a pipe, any
non-zero limit is translated to RLIM_INFINITY.

This allows complete dumps to be captured, but prevents infinite recursion
in the event that the core_pattern process itself crashes.

This changes tracehook_notify_jctl() so it's called with the siglock held,
and changes its argument and return value definition.  These clean-ups
make it a better fit for what new tracing hooks need to check.

Tracing needs the siglock here, held from the time TASK_STOPPED was set,
to avoid potential SIGCONT races if it wants to allow any blocking in its
tracing hooks.

This also folds the finish_stop() function into its caller
do_signal_stop().  The function is short, called only once and only
unconditionally.  It aids readability to fold it in.

do_wait() checks ->wo_info to figure out who is the caller.  If it's not
NULL the caller should be sys_waitid(), in that case do_wait() fixes up
the retval or zeros ->wo_info, depending on retval from underlying
function.

This is bug: user can pass ->wo_info == NULL and sys_waitid() will return
incorrect value.

man 2 waitid says:

	waitid(): returns 0 on success

Test-case:

	int main(void)
	{
		if (fork())
			assert(waitid(P_ALL, 0, NULL, WEXITED) == 0);

		return 0;
	}

Result:

	Assertion `waitid(P_ALL, 0, ((void *)0), 4) == 0' failed.

Move that code to sys_waitid().

infop is set or not.

Note, there's another bug in wait_noreap_copyout() which affects

task_pid_type() is only used by eligible_pid() which has to check wo_type
!= PIDTYPE_MAX anyway.  Remove this check from task_pid_type() and factor
out ->pids[type] access, this shrinks .text a bit and simplifies the code.

The matches the behaviour of other similar helpers, say get_task_pid().
The caller must ensure that pid_type is valid, not the callee.

child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() is not right, we can miss the
wakeup if the task was detached before __wake_up_parent() and the caller
of do_wait() didn't use __WALL.

Move ->wo_pid checks from eligible_child() to the new helper,
eligible_pid(), and change child_wait_callback() to use it instead of
eligible_child().

Note: actually I think it would be better to fix the __WCLONE check in
eligible_child(), it doesn't look exactly right.  But it is not clear what
is the supposed behaviour, and any change is user-visible.
