This patch provides performance tuning for the "Bulldozer" CPU. With its
shared instruction cache there is a chance of generating an excessive
number of cache cross-invalidates when running specific workloads on the
cores of a compute module.
This excessive amount of cross-invalidations can be observed if cache
lines backed by shared physical memory alias in bits [14:12] of their
virtual addresses, as those bits are used for the index generation.
This patch addresses the issue by clearing all the bits in the [14:12]
slice of the file mapping's virtual address at generation time, thus
forcing those bits the same for all mappings of a single shared library
across processes and, in doing so, avoids instruction cache aliases.
It also adds the command line option "align_va_addr=(32|64|on|off)" with
which virtual address alignment can be enabled for 32-bit or 64-bit x86
individually, or both, or be completely disabled.
This change leaves virtual region address allocation on other families
and/or vendors unaffected.

Since 2.6.36 (23016bf0d2), Linux prints the existence of "epb" in /proc/cpuinfo,
Since 2.6.38 (d5532ee7b4), the x86_energy_perf_policy(8) utility has
been available in-tree to update MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS.
However, the typical BIOS fails to initialize the MSR, presumably
because this is handled by high-volume shrink-wrap operating systems...
Linux distros, on the other hand, do not yet invoke x86_energy_perf_policy(8).
As a result, WSM-EP, SNB, and later hardware from Intel will run in its
default hardware power-on state (performance), which assumes that users
care for performance at all costs and not for energy efficiency.
While that is fine for performance benchmarks, the hardware's intended default
operating point is "normal" mode...
Initialize the MSR to the "normal" by default during kernel boot.
x86_energy_perf_policy(8) is available to change the default after boot,
should the user have a different preference.

controller. The chained irq handler can then use it to extract both the

This cleans up the implementation of that function, fixing

useful) for other platforms. Without this, bugs in that code
would trigger a WARN_ON() in drivers/base/memory.c when
booting some different platforms.

Commit 2706a0bf7b ("x86, NUMA: Enable CONFIG_AMD_NUMA on 32bit

on 32bit had rather coarse (512MiB) addr->node mapping
granularity due to lack of space in page->flags. This led to
boot failure on certain AMD NUMA machines which had 128MiB
alignment on nodes.
Patches to properly detect this condition and reject NUMA
configuration are posted[1] but deemed too pervasive for merge
at this point (-rc6). Disable AMD NUMA for 32bit for now and
re-enable once the detection logic is merged.

This fixes a regression introduced by e59347a "arm: orion:
Use generic irq chip".
Depending on the device, interrupts acknowledgement is done by setting
or by clearing a dedicated register. Replace irq_gc_ack() with some
{set,clr}_bit variants allows to handle both cases.
Note that this patch affects the following SoCs: Davinci, Samsung and
Orion. Except for this last, the change is minor: irq_gc_ack() is just
renamed into irq_gc_ack_set_bit().
For the Orion SoCs, the edge GPIO interrupts support is currently
broken. irq_gc_ack() try to acknowledge a such interrupt by setting
the corresponding cause register bit. The Orion GPIO device expect the
opposite. To fix this issue, the irq_gc_ack_clr_bit() variant is used.

Some BIOSes will reset the Intel MISC_ENABLE MSR (specifically the
XD_DISABLE bit) when resuming from S3, which can interact poorly with
ebba638ae7. In 32bit PAE mode, this can
lead to a fault when EFER is restored by the kernel wakeup routines,
due to it setting the NX bit for a CPU that (thanks to the BIOS reset)
now incorrectly thinks it lacks the NX feature. (64bit is not affected
because it uses a common CPU bring-up that specifically handles the
XD_DISABLE bit.)
The need for MISC_ENABLE being restored so early is specific to the S3
resume path. Normally, MISC_ENABLE is saved in save_processor_state(),
but this happens after the resume header is created, so just reproduce
the logic here. (acpi_suspend_lowlevel() creates the header, calls
do_suspend_lowlevel, which calls save_processor_state(), so the saved
processor context isn't available during resume header creation.)

This results in deadlock when the writel contains an outer_sync call
for the platform since the l2x0_lock is already held by the disable

first can lead to the spin_lock operation becoming visible after the
spin_unlock, causing any subsequent L2 maintenance to deadlock.
This patch replaces the writel with a call to writel_relaxed in the
