Just convert all the files that have an nmi handler to the new routines.
Most of it is straight forward conversion. A couple of places needed some
tweaking like kgdb which separates the debug notifier from the nmi handler
and mce removes a call to notify_die.
[Thanks to Ying for finding out the history behind that mce call
https://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/27/114
And Boris responding that he would like to remove that call because of it
https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/9/21/163]
The things that get converted are the registeration/unregistration routines
and the nmi handler itself has its args changed along with code removal
to check which list it is on (most are on one NMI list except for kgdb
which has both an NMI routine and an NMI Unknown routine).

Add the ability to disable PCI-E MPS turning and using the BIOS
configured MPS defaults. Due to the number of issues recently
discovered on some x86 chipsets, make this the default behavior.
Also, add the option for peer to peer DMA MPS configuration. Peer to
peer DMA is outside the scope of this patch, but MPS configuration could
prevent it from working by having the MPS on one root port different
than the MPS on another. To work around this, simply make the system
wide MPS the smallest possible value (128B).

Most asics just use the hw default value which requires
no explicit programming. For those that need a different
value, the vbios will program it properly. As such,
there's no need to program these registers explicitly
in the driver. Changing MC_SHARED_CHREMAP requires a reload
of all data in vram otherwise its contents will be scambled.

Simon Kirby reported that on his RAID setup with idedisk underneath
the box OOMs after a couple of days of runtime. Running with
CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK pointed to idedisk_prep_fn() which unconditionally
allocates an ide_cmd struct. However, ide_requeue_and_plug() can be
called more than once per request, either from the request issue or the
IRQ handler path and do blk_peek_request() ends up in idedisk_prep_fn()
repeatedly, allocating a struct ide_cmd everytime and "forgetting" the
previous pointer.
Make sure the code reuses the old allocated chunk.

If a VM is saved and restored (or migrated) the netback driver will no
longer process any Tx packets from the frontend. xenvif_up() does not
schedule the processing of any pending Tx requests from the front end
because the carrier is off. Without this initial kick the frontend
just adds Tx requests to the ring without raising an event (until the
ring is full).
This was caused by 47103041e9 (net:
xen-netback: convert to hw_features) which reordered the calls to
xenvif_up() and netif_carrier_on() in xenvif_connect().

During a test where a pair of bonding interfaces using ARP monitoring
were both brought up and torn down (with an rmmod) repeatedly, a panic
in the timer code was noticed. I tracked this down and determined that
any of the bonding functions that ran as workqueue handlers and requeued
more work might not properly exit when the module was removed.
There was a flag protected by the bond lock called kill_timers that is
set when the interface goes down or the module is removed, but many of
the functions that monitor link status now unlock the bond lock to take
rtnl first. There is a chance that another CPU running the rmmod could
get the lock and set kill_timers after the first check has passed.
This patch does not allow any function to queue work that will make
itself run unless kill_timers is not set. I also noticed while doing
this work that bond_resend_igmp_join_requests did not have a check for
kill_timers, so I added the needed call there as well.

If iwl_scan_initiate() fails for any reason,
priv->scan_request and priv->scan_vif are left
dangling. This can lead to a crash later when
iwl_bg_scan_completed() tries to run a pending
scan request.
In practice, this seems to be very rare due to
the STATUS_SCANNING check earlier. That check,
however, is wrong -- it should allow a scan to
be queued when a reset/roc scan is going on.
When a normal scan is already going on, a new
one can't be issued by mac80211, so that code
can be removed completely. I introduced this
bug when adding off-channel support in commit

Commit b7ab83e (PM: Use spinlock instead of mutex in clock
management functions) introduced a regression causing clocks_mutex
to be acquired under a spinlock. This happens because
pm_clk_suspend() and pm_clk_resume() call pm_clk_acquire() under
pcd->lock, but pm_clk_acquire() executes clk_get() which causes
clocks_mutex to be acquired. Similarly, __pm_clk_remove(),
executed under pcd->lock, calls clk_put(), which also causes
clocks_mutex to be acquired.
To fix those problems make pm_clk_add() call pm_clk_acquire(), so
that pm_clk_suspend() and pm_clk_resume() don't have to do that.
Change pm_clk_remove() and pm_clk_destroy() to separate
modifications of the pcd->clock_list list from the actual removal of
PM clock entry objects done by __pm_clk_remove().

The root cause was an EEH error, which sent us down the offload_close path in
the cxgb3 driver, which in turn sets cdev->l2opt to NULL, without regard for
upper layer driver (like the cxgbi drivers) which might have execution contexts
in the middle of its use. The result is the oops above, when t3_l2t_get attempts
to dereference L2DATA(cdev)->nentries in arp_hash right after the EEH error handler sets it to NULL.
The fix is to prevent the setting of the NULL pointer until after there are no
further users of it. The t3cdev->l2opt pointer is now converted to be an rcu
pointer and the L2DATA macro is now called under the protection of the
rcu_read_lock(). When the EEH error path:
t3_adapter_error->offload_close->cxgb3_offload_deactivate
