The presense of a writeq() implementation on 32-bit x86 that splits the
64-bit write into two 32-bit writes turns out to break the mpt2sas driver
(and in general is risky for drivers as was discussed in
<http://lkml.kernel.org/r/adaab6c1h7c.fsf@cisco.com>). To fix this,
revert 2c5643b1c5 ("x86: provide readq()/writeq() on 32-bit too") and
follow-on cleanups.
This unfortunately leads to pushing non-atomic definitions of readq() and
write() to various x86-only drivers that in the meantime started using the
definitions in the x86 version of <asm/io.h>. However as discussed
exhaustively, this is actually the right thing to do, because the right
way to split a 64-bit transaction is hardware dependent and therefore
belongs in the hardware driver (eg mpt2sas needs a spinlock to make sure
no other accesses occur in between the two halves of the access).
Build tested on 32- and 64-bit x86 allmodconfig.

Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct
device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the
of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe
because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If
two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the
same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get
overwritten.
This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to
call of_match_device() directly instead.

Needed to update to apply fixes for which the old branch was too
outdated.
When matching error address to the range contained by one memory node,
we're in valid range when node interleaving
1. is disabled, or
2. enabled and when the address bits we interleave on match the
interleave selector on this node (see the "Node Interleaving" section in
the BKDG for an enlightening example).
Thus, when we early-exit, we need to reverse the compound logic
statement properly.

00740c5854 changed edac_core to
un-/register a workqueue item only if a lowlevel driver supplies a
polling routine. Normally, when we remove a polling low-level driver, we
go and cancel all the queued work. However, the workqueue unreg happens
based on the ->op_state setting, and edac_mc_del_mc() sets this to
OP_OFFLINE _before_ we cancel the work item, leading to NULL ptr oops on
the workqueue list.
Fix it by putting the unreg stuff in proper order.

Due to the nature of i7core, we need to probe and attach all PCI
devices used by this driver during the first time probe is called.
However, PCI core will call the probe routine one time for each CPU
socket. If we return -EINVAL to those calls, it would seem that the
driver fails, when, in fact, there's no more devices left to initialize.
Changing the return code to -ENODEV solves this issue.

a bug where it may be running out of the table elements.

That's a nasty bug that took me a lot of time to track, and whose
solution took just one line to solve. The best fragrances and the worse
poisons are shipped on the smalest bottles.
The drivers/pci/quick.c implements the pci_get_device function. The normal
behavior is that you call it, the function returns you a pdev pointer
and increment pdev->kobj.kref.refcount of the pci device. However,
if you want to keep searching an object, you need to pass the previous
pdev function to the search.
When you use a not null pointer to pdev "from" field, pci_get_device
will decrement pdev->kobj.kref.refcount, assuming that the driver won't
be using the previous pdev.
The solution is simple: we just need to call pci_dev_get() manually,
for the pdev's that the driver will actually use.
Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@redhat.com>
Probably due to a bug or some testing logic at PCI level, device
refcount for <bus>:00.0 device is decremented at the end of the
pci_get_device, made by i7core_get_all_devices(). The fact is that
the first versions of the driver relied on those devices to probe
for Nehalem, but the current versions don't use it at all.
So, let's just remove those devices from the driver, making it simpler
and fixing the bug.

This is a nasty bug. Since kobject count will be reduced by zero by
edac_mc_del_mc(), and this triggers the kobj release method, the
mci memory will be freed automatically. So, all we have left is ctl_name,
as shown by enabling debug:
[ 80.822186] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/edac_mc_sysfs.c, line at 1020: edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device() remove_link

[ 80.888043] EDAC DEBUG: in drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c, line at 1232: drivers/edac/i7core_edac.c: i7core_put_devices()
Also, kfree(mci) shouldn't happen at the kobj.release, as it happens
when edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device() is called, but the logic is:
edac_remove_sysfs_mci_device(mci);
edac_printk(KERN_INFO, EDAC_MC,
"Removed device %d for %s %s: DEV %s\n", mci->mc_idx,
mci->mod_name, mci->ctl_name, edac_dev_name(mci));
So, as the edac_printk() needs the mci struct, this generates an OOPS.
