It now takes an additional argument so it can be used to
flush-and-invalidate pages that are cached using hash-for-home
as well those that are cached with coherence point on a single cpu.
This allows it to be used more widely for changing the coherence
point of arbitrary pages when necessary.

The first is that we were using an incorrect hand-rolled variant
of __kernel_text_address() which didn't handle module PCs. We now
just use the standard API.
The second was that we weren't accounting for the three-level
page table when we were trying to pre-verify the addresses on
the 64-bit TILE-Gx processor; we now do that correctly.

Previously we used iret to atomically return to kernel PL with
interrupts enabled. However, it turns out that we are architecturally
guaranteed that we can just set and clear the "interrupt critical
section" and only interrupt on the following instruction, so we
now do that instead, since it's cleaner.

As the added comment says, we can sometimes see a coherence warning
from our simulator if the "swapper_pgprot" variable on the boot cpu
has not been evicted from cache by the time the other cpus come up.
Force it to be evicted so we never see the warning.

The problem was that this could lead to IPIs being disabled during
the softirq processing after a hypervisor downcall (e.g. for I/O),
since both IPI and device interrupts use the INCTRL_1 downcall mechanism.
When this happened at the wrong time, it could lead to deadlock.
Luckily, we were already maintaining the per-interrupt state we need,
and using it in the proper way in the hypervisor, so all we had to do
was to change Linux to stop blocking downcall interrupts for the entire
length of the downcall. (Now they're blocked while we're executing the
downcall routine itself, but not while we're executing any subsequent
softirq routines.) The hypervisor is doing a very small amount of
work it no longer needs to do (masking INTCTRL_1 on entry to the client
interrupt routine), but doing so means that older versions of Tile Linux
will continue to work with a current hypervisor, so that seems reasonable.
Signed-off-by: Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@tilera.com>
The current implementations of __ndelay and __udelay call a hypervisor
service to delay, but the hypervisor service isn't actually implemented
very well, and the consensus is that Linux should handle figuring this
out natively and not use a hypervisor service.
By converting nanoseconds to cycles, and then spinning until the
cycle counter reaches the desired cycle, we get several benefits:
first, we are sensitive to the actual clock speed; second, we use
less power by issuing a slow SPR read once every six cycles while
we delay; and third, we properly handle the case of an interrupt by
exiting at the target time rather than after some number of cycles.

To handle single-step, tile mmap's a page of memory in the process
space for each thread and uses it to construct a version of the
instruction that we want to single step. If the process exec's,
though, we lose that mapping, and the kernel needs to be aware that
it will need to recreate it if the exec'ed process than tries to
single-step as well.
Also correct some int32_t to s32 for better kernel style.

The current code does not follow Intel documentation: It misses some things
and does other, undocumented things. This causes wrong backlight values in
certain conditions. Instead of adding tricky code handling badly documented
and rare corner cases, don't handle combination mode specially at all. This
way PCI_LBPC is never touched and weird things shouldn't happen.
If combination mode is enabled, then the only downside is that changing the
brightness has a greater granularity (the LBPC value), but LBPC is at most
254 and the maximum is in the thousands, so this is no real functional loss.
A potential problem with not handling combined mode is that a brightness of
max * PCI_LBPC is not bright enough. However, this is very unlikely because
from the documentation LBPC seems to act as a scaling factor and doesn't look
like it's supposed to be changed after boot. The value at boot should always
result in a bright enough screen.
IMPORTANT: However, although usually the above is true, it may not be when
people ran an older (2.6.37) kernel which messed up the LBPC register, and
they are unlucky enough to have a BIOS that saves and restores the LBPC value.
Then a good kernel may seem to not work: Max brightness isn't bright enough.
If this happens people should boot back into the old kernel, set brightness
to the maximum, and then reboot. After that everything should be fine.

There is no need to install a chained handler for this hardware. This
is a plain x86 IOAPIC interrupt which is handled by the core code
perfectly fine. There is nothing special about demultiplexing these
gpio interrupts which justifies a custom hack. Replace it by a plain
old interrupt handler installed with request_irq. That makes the code
agnostic about the underlying primary interrupt hardware. The overhead
for this is minimal, but it gives us the advantage of accounting,
balancing and to detect interrupt storms. gpio interrupts are not
really that performance critical.

read() calls against a file descriptor connected to a directory are
incorrectly returning EINVAL rather than EISDIR:
[EISDIR]
[XSI] [Option Start] The fildes argument refers to a directory and the
implementation does not allow the directory to be read using read()
or pread(). The readdir() function should be used instead. [Option End]
This occurs because we do not have a .read operation defined for
ecryptfs directories. Connect this up to generic_read_dir().

This avoids races with the MMU/other CPUs accessing pages after they've
